As the afternoon approaches, Aisha and Myara step out of their class. It just so happens that they are in the same class and class. Equally beautiful, smart and talented, it seems they are destined to be friends.
"Yes, I'll go home first" said Aisha. Mya just nodded and smiled in response. They split up at the main gate. Walk according to each footstep.
The girl ran out the gate. He ordered a taxi on his cell phone. Still waiting there while playing the phone. Occasionally glanced at the passing students around him.
Suddenly a new sports car stopped in front of him. The door opens, Arthur in cool style out of there. Approaching Aisha.
"Arthur " Murmured the girl. Didn't expect Arthur to pick her up this afternoon. He throws a big smile.
"Let's go in "Pull Aisha's hand and push her into the car. Without a long wait, the car drove splitting the density of New York City. In the car Aisha looks to check her phone, there is a message coming in from Myara. They exchanged phone numbers.
Arthur only glanced at a glance, not really caring what Aisha was doing.
The girl turned off her phone screen after typing something on her new friend. Take a quick look at the husband holding the wheel. The man just fell silent. Silence was created before Aisha opened her voice.
"Arthur" said the girl. Arthur just turned his head, looked straight ahead and watched the vehicle.
"Arthur "Call him again.
"Hmmm" After two new calls he replied. Glancing at Aisha with a tail of eyes "What? " ask.
Whahuh? He also doesn't know why. It's just weird to just be quiet with each other. Judging from the nature of Aisha who likes to talk, it does not feel at home if it is silent.
"Why did you pick me up? " A conversation is born out of the mind. It should not be necessary, Aisha is still able to go home alone.
"Aunty told me "
"Oh, didn't you ask me anything? " So I refuse to close the conversation. No matter Arthur who started to riled because of the concentration that was split.
"No "The answer is short. Huh, Aisha was whining. Puckered his lips and chose to look at the trees running behind. Staring at them alone was much more fun than chatting with the cold man next to her.
Seeing the change in the look of Aisha's face, the more adorable it becomes. Quiet - silent Arthur noticed the look on his wife's face. Perfectly engraved facial lines, different from the others. It was beautiful and charming to anyone who looked at it. It made him get lost in daydreams, even though he was driving now.
"Arthur look ahead, don't come here " Daritadi the man is still stunned. Not even aware that Aisha was staring at him.
"Hemmm "Mistakenly, then he refocused his eyes forward. Reluctant to look at or even look at his wife. Can collapse his pride because he was caught observing his face earlier.
Damnit damnit!
Not long after, the vehicle they were riding parked in the courtyard of Arthur's mansion.
The girl pushed the door and got out of the car. So did Arthur who went straight inside with a step to line his wife's fingers.

This afternoon Aisha is doing her college work in the library. Accompanied by the faithful Lia sat beside him. They talked lightly about Aisha's first day on campus.
"I'm so glad Lia, there I have a new friend. Her name is Myara, she is kind and friendly. " Aisha said with her hand still writing on her notebook. Then he went back to typing something on his laptop.
"I'm glad that miss is comfortable there" said Lia with a big smile.
A few minutes later they were still talking - a light talk. Until suddenly a bodyguard came with a breath of breath. He nodded while controlling his breath.
"What's up, sir? " Tanya Aisha was astonished. His forehead creased as the bodyguard richly fell silent. He was afraid to say something.
"What's wrong? " Task Aisha again. The man looked up for a moment, pinning his two fingers down there. His scarlet instantly shrieked as he sat with the young miss.
"Miss, anu" Sighs, gathering scattered courage.
"One of the lions is sick and dead" she said in one breath.
Aisha widened in shock, she dropped the pen in the hand and immediately got up from her seat. Likewise Lia who was also jolted with the words of the bodyguard.
They ran straight to the back garden.
***
In a large and beautiful back garden. Shady trees line the fence of this mansion.
Aisha was pensive in front of the grave of Leo, a good friend who had accompanied her since she was a child. Even though it was only an animal, the girl loved him so much. It's like family. Without feeling a thread of clear crystal escaped from his eye fertilizers. He wore a soft mound of wet soil there.
"Leos.. " The girl's murmured. Remembering his time with the lion.
Lia who was standing not far behind approached. " Have it been, Miss, just let it go. Miss still has Simmba, right? " Holiday Lia accompanied by her smile.
Aisha just nodded.
"But Simmba will be alone.. " Sweetness slowly.
Arthur crouched down, watching the tomb that had been sprinkled with seven flowers.
Well, this is just an animal. Even my harimau often died like this.
He murmured in his heart.
"Why should we cry, anyone would die. Including your animals, don't cry! " Speak with a sharp tone. But when he turned his head and saw the sadness of Aisha, he became unbearable.
Wearing his back was gentle, trying to comfort. " Okay, he's just an animal. I'll replace it with a new one. " Said Arthur.
Aisha turned her head for a moment, wiping her tears "Do you have a lion? " Task the girl. Arthur shook his head.
"No, I have a lot of tigers in the cage back there. But there was no lion" Pulling his hand from Aisha's shoulder. "I'll buy you a new one. "
The girl smiled wryly, looking back at Leo's grave.
You must be happy there. You'll meet Lia later. The mind in the heart.
"Leo is different. He has lived his whole life with me. From my little one. " Said Aisha with her sad face.
"At least you can find a new friend for that one. "
"yes too. " Simmba can't be alone. There he will die bored and end tragically like Leo before.
After discussing for a while, the two of them stepped in simultaneously entering the mansion.
Aunty Rania came from the direction of the stairs. Seeing Aisha's face, he approached her.
"What's wrong, son, why is your face? Did Arthur hurt you? " Strong questions out. Aunty had already stared intently at the man beside her and hit him in the stomach. " What did you do to your wife? "
"No aunty, Arthur doesn't do anything "Sargah Aisha fast. Aunty looked back at him, touching his shoulders gently with a warm smile accompanying him.
"Then what's up? " Task her.
"My maintenance is dead aunty "Light Aisha with her sad tone.
"Yeah, those two cute cats? Too bad, are they both dead? " As far as aunty Rania lives here, she only knows two of Aisha's pets. Two cats named Pushy and Sugar. The woman did see two lions in the back, but it did not cross her mind that it belonged to her daughter-in-law.
Aisha shook her head slowly. "No, but one of my singers is in the back. "
Aunty Rania was shocked.
"So they're yours? " Tanya Aunty Rania still couldn't believe it.
"Yes "
"Oh my God "Claps his own forehead. Then he turned to look at Arthur who was just shaking his shoulders indifferently.
"Yes, don't think about it. Arthur's gonna buy you a new one. " Said again by stroking the top of Aisha's head. The girl only smiled and took the steps of the aunty that led her up the stairs.

This afternoon, Arthur called one of his friends. He sold various kinds of ferocious beasts that the officials usually ordered.
Now the new animal has arrived at the mansion grounds. One of the guards came over.
"Sir, where will it be placed? "
"Put it in a different cage with emm.. " Because remember the name that his wife called earlier. " Simmons. Put it in a different cage with him. They fear they will fight later. "
"Good sir. " Turns away doing his job.
Arthur took his wife to the back garden. Where a lion is available.
"Arthur, is this for me? " His eyes sparkled with pleasure. But certainly not reduce the sadness because of the departure of Leo.
"Yes, but she's a female. There was nothing else, so I had to choose "Reply Arthur.
"I'm just happy, he'll be paired with Simmba. " Swivet a beautiful smile on her husband. Arthur looked away, unable to see Aisha like that.
Damnit damnit! Why is she so sweet when she smiles.
"I'll give her the name Shreya "Swaying the legs close to the cage. The lion that Arthur ordered was already tame, so there was no need to worry about his safety.
Arthur pulled the corner of his lips when he saw the smile on Aisha's lips.
Seriate...
