“Interest in trusting me?”
In one blink tears slid on the cheek, a moment ago Likta was tempted by a loving touch, but in reality Tiarnan was still suspicious.
Pain is not believed, but it has been proven through examination that the baby who inhabits his womb is closely related to togetherness that night.
And, just this morning Likta said, Don't worry. I do not intend to tempt you, even if in this world you are the only man, I will not allow myself to approach you. And, I understand very well what is written in the pre-wedding agreement. But what is this? How foolish he was, in trying to get away from Tiarnan proved futile, the struggle could be said to be a form of powerlessness Likta dispelled the deadly influence of the man.
Likta stared at the pushy bedsheet that looked wry and warm. His self-disgust made him nauseous, he immediately jerked the blanket to wrap his body. He rushed into the bathroom, accidentally entering a small glass-walled room.
Under the cold water droplets Likta shivered, successfully hiding the sound of crying through the splashing of water. He rubbed violently all over the body, removing the invisible traces of Tiarnan's palm. Roughly, he rubbed his lips repeatedly.
All felt free, Likta tried to resist, but the whole system inside betrayed itself. The heart pumps faster considering each greeting of Tiarnan's skillful fingers, the chewy tissue in the throbbing body craving repeated intimacy.
Likta's body shook, crying again as much as possible to tell hiccups. With a sigh of frustration, he decided to get out of the bathroom and stay away from Tiarnan as much as possible.
Before the man woke up Likta rushed into the clothes, on her tiptoes leaving the bedroom. He went downstairs, where he saw two three people passing by, pink and blue plastic roses covered with arms.
Likta impulsively kept his hands away from the staircase, a shiny ribbon in color with adorning flowers.
“Mbak Likta!”
Likta's eyes immediately turned towards the caller. “Ya.”
“Where are you? Last Mas Tiarnan nyariin,” said Murti.
“He'eh, that's the guy again in the room,” reply Likta, “This is what, Bi Mur?”
“Loh, right for the three-month gratitude event baby.” Murti frowned deeply, in addition to being amazed at Likta's ignorance about the event that will be held tomorrow, also confused why Likta's eyes were swollen. However, he did not dare to be presumptuous with what happened to the son-in-law of the owner of the house. “Mbak Likta hasn't eaten since last afternoon, want to prepare something?”
“Yang no aja, Bi Mur.”
“It just so happens to be dinner time and Auntie has prepared in the dining room. Just wait for Mr. Frits and Mas Tiarnan,” Murti bright without being asked, “Mbak Likta can wait there.” Hail nods.
As it passed, Justice approached, lazily walking around Likta's feet. The white-haired creature meowed, as if to seduce for carrying.
“Hai, Justice.” Likta crouched down to grab the fat cat. He felt lucky that Justice wanted to be his ally in this foreign place. Where time runs so slowly, a day and two nights is a century and a half.
“Yes, yes, well I'll get there soon.”
Likta's eyeliner closed briefly upon hearing the voice of Tiarnan, her romantics bristling. She could not deal with the man now, before his existence was known, it was better to stay away a few radius from the husband.
“Bi Myrrh! Nov!” shouted Tiarnan, his footsteps steady and firm. “Bi Mur!” his voice was furious, anger gathered on a cold face.
“Iya, Mas Tiarnan?” Murti walked over.
“Likta where?”
“Di—” Murti sweeping view of the whole room. “So there, kok, let—” briefly
“No need, Bi, please convey to him if I go to Jepara.”
“Loh, Mas Tiarnan do not eat dinner first?”
“Hurry, Bi. I was also saying papa,” explained Tiarnan while then, his eyebrows furrowed in signifying a lot of thoughts. I didn't realize the house was being decorated. Adversity is entrenched in the trough of the heart, when it awakens from a sweet dream and does not find Likta beside it. As a man, his ego is tangled.
“Pak Muh, the car is ready?” ask Tiarnan because before going down already tell by phone.
“Siap, Mas Tiarnan, mari.”
“Let me inter.” Mr. Muh had opened the back door, waiting for the young man to enter.
“I leave alone, Mr. Muh here only, it is easier if Likta wants to walk,” said Tiarnan flat-headed, however the woman is currently pregnant with a potential family successor.
“Good, Mas Tiarnan.”
Tiarnan sped up without saying anything more. He broke through the highway taking north towards West Minangkabau road, then entered the freeway.
Now, to reach the hometown of the hero who became the pioneer of women's emancipation, in history known by its motto 'Dark Out of Light' it takes the rest of 12 hours.
Tiarnan established a distributor branch office in Bumi Kartini not without reason, because the city is famous for good furniture raw materials, so it has a great opportunity to increase its business moving on the sandpaper industry.
Historically since the 19th century, the birthplace of R.A Kartini has become an area that produces furniture and carvings famous in Indonesia. The work of the people of Jepara has penetrated into neighboring countries as well as Europe. This is what underlies the consideration of Tiarnan.
Currently, Tiarnan is resting after a four-hour drive, more than is recommended in driving a car in long-distance travel.
“Add what else, Brother? Pulse?” ask cashier.
“No, thank you.”
“22.200,” said the cashier while handing two copies of plastic cup packaging.
With a flat expression Tiarnan handed over a piece of fifty thousand money.
“300nya, can be donated?”
Tiarnan nodded in approval, then received proof of payment and change. Looks like Likta's husband often looks moody, but the aura of the prince, until the cashier was difficult to take his eyes off him.
When he got off the store terrace steps, Tiarnan's phone rang, he chose to sit first in one of the round-table chairs.
“Halo, yes, Juana?”
“Tiarnan I can no longer wait for your presence, this is too long,” Juana said in Tiarnan's ear.
“Are you tired of working with me? Or am I overindulging you, huh?” Tiarnan a little upset, why all day women make emotions decrease.
“Not so, Tiarnan, this is also for our good. How much longer do we have to wait for you, huh? You also do not want not the plan in Jepara failed?”
“Are you with Mr Nathan?”
“He came home early, his son was sick,” Juana bright, moody. “Dan, take three days off.”
“Take three days off? What pain is severe?” Tiarnan's tone of voice was no less anxious. “If Mr Nathan is on leave, who will accompany you later Juana?”
“I can myself Tiarnan, has never been before, right? Easy to get investor.”
Tiarnan puffing cheeks. He sipped a little coffee from a straw. “I know the fire at that time had a bad impact on our cash flow, but we can find another way.” He could hear Juana's breath.
“Juana?”
“Ya?”
“Apply disbursement of deposits to banks,” order Tiarnan.
“Tapi—”
