The Love of the Helper

The penniless!

"Sorry for what, Tira?" ask Rangga.

"I'm sorry,"

Tira remained silent. It was hard for him to tell the truth. Rangga waited with hope. He kept looking at Tira, who was looking down lethargic. Whether Tira thought about what, Rangga did not know the reason.

"I'm sorry, I can't return that feeling. I don't want a love like this." Tira insisted.

"But, I'm not kidding, Tira. Although this seems like a joke, even if it seems sudden, I'm serious about you. I'll introduce you to my parents soon!" rangga.

"Sir, once again forgive me. Maybe this sounds like Mr. Davian's request to Miss Arini, but it's a different story now. I can't possibly accept all that. I'm sorry, I have a reason for this." Tira remained firm.

"What's your excuse? Because of Melisa again? Huh yeah?" Rangga.

"I told you, Sir, now take care of Keyza. You become the substitute figure of his father. Why should I replace her mother? While her mother is still there! I don't want to ruin happiness that shouldn't be for me, sir!" tira resolute.

"Please, don't think of anyone else. Just think about yourself. How do you feel about me? Can you learn to love me? Let Melisa go, I don't want to be with her, I did choose you, even if it's very sudden. Please, we learn to love each other. Isn't that easy? Tira, how do you feel about me? I wish full, to you." Rangga continued to beg.

"Sorry, Sir. My decision is unanimous. I won't accept it. I don't like Mr. Rangga one bit. Im sorry. Please, I want to work in peace, I don't want my job to be mixed up with feelings I don't want in the least." Tira strengthens herself.

"So, you're rejecting me? Don't you have any feelings for me, Tira?" Rangga convinced himself.

"No. I have no feelings for Mr. Rangga. In addition to my respect for the Master as my master." said Tira.

"Tira, are you sure, with your words?" Rangga grinned.

"I'm sure! Please sir don't demean me. Because I'm not kidding." Tira held her head up.

"All right, I accept your decision. Keep working with me, I will prove, if your words are wrong, if it turns out you do hold feelings for me. I'm sure you like me too, we'll see, Tira. Whatever you want, I will prove someday, if you love me too! Take that, Tira!" Rangga.

Rangga carried his bag and jacket, he passed. He went somewhere. The apartment door slammed hard. Not without reason, Rangga was dizzy half-dead, how he could introduce his chosen woman to his parents, while the woman he expected, did not heed his feelings.

Rangga drove his car quickly. He could no longer think clearly. He immediately drove his car to the pizza restaurant where Melisa worked. Rangga had no other choice. Accepted or not, Rangga will force himself. Rather than he marrying another woman, it was better that he marry the woman who became the mother of the child he was caring for today.

Even though Rangga's heart doesn't want it. Rangga just wanted to make Tira upset and hurt at his choice for rejecting him. Rangga wanted to make Tira regret, for ignoring her feelings.

Rangga arrived at the restaurant. Looks like Melisa is cleaning up the dirty tables of former customers. Rangga immediately approached Melisa. Rangga pulled Melisa's hand.

"Awwww," Melisa's in pain.

"Mel, come with me now!" rangga.

"The Rangga! What the hell is it? After all, why is the nature of Bang Rangg always so arbitrary?" Melisa's upset.

"Bring your bags, and give your boss permission to go home early. There's something I want to tell you!" rangga's orders.

"Bang!" Melisa doesn't like it.

"Hurry, Mel. I don't want to waste time!"

Melisa has no other choice. Rangga always forced her. He did not want to make a fuss, until finally he relented and joined Rangga in his car. Melisa did not understand, why Rangga did this to her. Now they are in the car.

"What the hell is Bang?" Melisa doesn't understand.

"You know, all this time I've been looking after and caring for your son?" ask Rangga.

"Of course, I'm grateful for that. Why, why Bang?"

"You have to thank me in another way" said Rangga.

"Married me a contract! That's how you thank me!" rangga.

Melisa chokes, "Uhukk, uhukk. Bang Ranges! Whatdoes thatmean? Why should I marry you on a contract? Whatchu mean?" Melisa was really shocked.

"I want to make the woman I love jealous of me. I will prove that he loves me. Please, work with me, Melisa!" pinta Ranges.

"Why should I do that? Didn't Bang Rangga already have a lover, and he was the one who would be my successor to take care of Keyza? What's the matter exactly?" Melissa wondered.

"He's not my girlfriend. He's just an assistant who helped me take care of Keyza. Until finally, I fell on him. However, he still insisted on not accepting me. I'm sure he actually loves me too. However, he put forward his ego. I want you to marry me on a contract. That way, you can meet and always be with your son, right?" Rangga.

"It's true, I get to see my son every day. However, it feels like I'm being played here." Melisa.

"Nobody was played. You and I were married on paper. Take the plus side, you can always be with your child, and I can tell, whether the woman likes me or not!" Rangga insisted.

"Until when do I have that contract marriage?" ask Melisa.

"Until I'm sure, that Tira loves me." said Rangga.

"I don't guarantee this way will work. However, as my thanks, I will do it. I'll be your contract wife. On condition that we don't sleep together. Because once everything is done, I'll be gone soon." Melisa asserted.

"Really, Mel? You agreed? Thank you! Thank you for working with me." said Rangga.

Tira, I will prove, that you love me too. I want you to be jealous of me because of Melisa's presence. Hopefully Melisa can help me to get Tira. Forgive me for taking such a bitter path. I just want to know your true feelings. Inner Rangga.

Rangga takes Melisa to the main house of her parents. Rangga was nervous, but he had to convince his parents, that Melisa was the one to be made his wife. Rangga held Misa's hand into the main house. They're both really nervous. Inside the house, there is already Father Rangga and Papa Davian. They were shocked, seeing Rangga bring Melisa to the house.

"PRIDE! What the fuck are you. Why doesn't a woman know she can be with you, HUH?" Grandpa Surya was angry.

"Dad, listen to me first!"

"PRIDE! Take away that selfless woman! I don't want to see it anymore. I'm sick of women leaving behind their obligations!!!" Grandpa Surya was angry.

"Ladders. Whatchu mean? Why bring Melisa?" Papa Davian is inexhaustible.

"Stop your anger. Hear me! Don't you want me to get married soon? Now, I'm taking care of Keyza. I'm Arkan's replacement! And I will also replace Arkan to be Melisa's husband. I'll marry her, Father, Brother! That way, Keyza and Melisa will remain happy together" said Rangga firmly.

"PRIDE! Stop that shit. Take that woman who doesn't know herself away. I'm sick of it, I don't want to see his face anymore." snapped Grandpa Surya.

"Sir, don't be like that!" Rangga.

"Women like her don't deserve to set foot in this house anymore. I want to see him die instead of him having to live, and go back to this family. I can't possibly let her marry you. This just causes trouble in our extended family. Take him out Rangga! I won't see it!" Grandpa Surya was angry.

"Dad, stop! You were too rude to her! Enough's enough!" He calmed his father.

Melisa hurt to hear Grandpa Surya's words, she did not expect, that Grandpa Surya would say that hurtful. Not feeling, her tears fell. Either he had to how, his heart and soul were completely shocked to hear the cruel words of his former Grandfather. Until the tightness in Melisa's chest relapsed again, she could not hold the stuffy in her chest, she held her chest constantly, trying to get her condition better again.

The feeling of tightness and stuffiness continues to linger him. He has no power to endure pain. Rangga who did not pay attention to her, made Melisa more sad and hurt. Until her consciousness decreased again, unknowingly, Melisa dropped her body onto the floor. He was no longer able to understand the tightness in his chest. Eventually, the defense collapsed.

Bruggghhh, Melisa passed out again.

"MEL, MELISSA! You why? Wake Mel!!!" Rangga moved Melisa's helpless body.
