The Curse of Love Lecturer Handsome

CHAPTER 4

“Jerry, why did you just come home?” ask Mrs Rita.

“I'll take extra work, Bu.” Jerry said as he glanced at Rhea. Jerry then walked to his room. Rhea understood the meaning of the glance of her brother's eyes.

“Everybody's getting tough because of you, Rhea. Your father hasn't come home from the store either. Want Mom to close it but your Dad continued trading somehow until what time.” Madame Rita was angry at her youngest daughter. Rhea could only fall silent while helping to make the noodle dough.

“Rhea wrong, Bu.” Rhea answered in a low voice. Madam Rita chose silence and continued her work.

After the bath, Jerry came back out to catch up with his father to his noodle shop.

“Where else are you Jer?” asked Madam Rita who saw her youngest son walking out.

“You caught up with Dad to the store, Mom. Jerry go first.”

“But you just got home and tomorrow have to teach again.”

“It's okay Mom. Jerry go yes.”

“Be careful, nak.”

“Iya Bu.”

Arriving at the noodle shop, Jery immediately helped his father who seemed busy serving buyers. It turned out that the night the store was getting crowded. After the quiet atmosphere of the buyer, Jery and his father sat facing each other while enjoying a cup of coffee.

“Daddy want to close what time?”

“Let's go, Jer. I'm just gonna sleep here. Why are you also coming here? And I see, you just got home too, right? Where are you from?”

“Jery part time in a restaurant, Dad. So that we can get a lot of money and redeem the home certificate.”

“That's why so far away huh Jer?”

“How far does it mean Yah?”

“Where can we raise five hundred million in one month. The flowers keep going. Moreover, Rhea has not paid the installment a dime. Next month our house and shop will definitely be taken by them. Maybe tomorrow they'll be here to ask for the flowers.” Said Mr. Panji in a clear voice. His face looked tired and burdened.

“Dad, we can definitely pay those debts. I'll work on it.”

“Jery, should be at your current age, you already have to think about married life, instead of even thinking about the debt caused by your sister.”

“But under these circumstances, who would want to be with Jery, Dad. Jery still wants to go to school again and get that degree.”

“But your sister messed up all your plans, right?”

“To be honest I was angry and disappointed with Rhea. He was so stupid for doing that. But the rice has become porridge, Dad. We have to be sure we can get through all this.”

“Im sorry Dad yes. Because Dad failed to educate your sister.”

“Not wrong Dad too. He should be able to think rationally. We better clean up and rest. I'll accompany Dad to sleep in the tavern.”

“Yes well, if you force.”

After finishing cleaning, Jery and his father slept in the 3x6-meter noodle shop. Jery could not bear to leave his father alone.

The next day, there was the sound of people shouting while banging on the door of the noodle shop. Jery and her father were shocked, and they woke up.

“Who the hell is gedor-gedor door?” jery shouted as he rubbed his eyes.

“The loan shark must be Jer.” Mr. Panji. Jery then got up from the wooden chair where she slept. Then he opened the door. And sure enough four burly and large men were already standing in front of the tavern with angry eyes.

“What's the morning bang here?” ask Jery.

“This you guys brought, we only have this. Tomorrow you guys come again, we'll take it as hard as we can.” Said Mr. Panji nervously.

“Remember your debt every day interest and now it has become 600 million.”

“WHAT? Six hundred million?” Jery surprised. His eyes are perfectly round.

“Iya six hundred million. If you want your debt paid off, give a young girl in your house to our boss.” Said one of them with a grin.

BUGS! “Jaga your speech.” Jery slapped a punch at the face of the loan shark thug.

“Damn ya lo! Already owed, still dare to beat people. Hit him!” The four of them then brutally beat up Jery. Several times Jery could fend off and fight their blows but still Jery finally fell down. The tip of his lips was bleeding and his face looked bruised.

“NOG!” exclaimed the loan shark thug leader as it passed after being satisfied to gang up on Jery. Mr. Panji, with teary eyes helped Jery stand up.

“You shouldn't fight them son! Enough fight with mouth only.”

“Dad didn't hear, if he wanted to take Rhea as a debt payer? Although I was annoyed with Rhea, but I also could not see my sister being hurt.”

“Ya already, we better go home and treat your wound.”

Arriving home, Jery and his father saw their house in disarray. This time the loan sharks brought their chairs and tables. Jery saw her mother and sister hugging. The lips both were hurt.

“Mother... Rhea... Why are you guys? Why are you injured?” ask Mr. Panji in a panic.

“Dad, they want to take Rhea as a debt guarantee. We tried to fight and finally they brought the table and chairs as payment.” Crying Madame Rita.

“They also came to the store and beat up Jery,” Mr. Panji said. Lady Rita and Rhea then saw Jery's battered face. They both hugged Jery.

“Kak, I'm sorry. I don't want to marry that loan shark. I was just made a slave to their lust. After that I want to be sold and with that our debt paid off.” Sobs Rhea in the arms of her brother. Rhea was traumatized by the incident. Jery couldn't bear to see her family suffer like this. He was confused and his mind grew increasingly confused.

“Yes God, what should I do?” jery murmured in his heart.

“We'd better think later. I have to go to college because there's a quiz today."

“But son,,,” prevent Nnyonya Rita.

“It's okay Mom, I can't just let go of my responsibilities.”

“Yes already, I helped treat your wound.”

After the home business was over, Jery then went to the campus as usual with his face turning blue. Rendi was surprised to see Jery's face battered.

“Jer, elo why? Why on bonyok like this?” asked Rendi while moving her face slowly to the right and left, making sure the wound on her best friend's face was not serious.

“Udah is okay. I'll be telling a story later. I was in a hurry to go to class first. There's a quiz about.” Jery said with a hurried step.

Finished teaching, Jery and Rendi went to the cafeteria together.

“Now elo story why?”

“The moneylender's men are coming. Yes I had a fist fight because they wanted Rhea as collateral. I was finally in a crack. I am confused about what to do. Sell how much kidney sale?” jery Seloroh.

“Udah don't freak out mind elo, Jer. If you sell kidneys, instead of debt paid off, elo even sickly because the kidneys are only one. Complicated also elo.” problem

“Huft, yes already, I resigned if I have to work for a lifetime to pay off loan shark debt.” Jery sighs resignedly. Fall with fate.

“Prophet Jer, I'm sure you can get through it all.” Rendi tried to calm her best friend.
