The Love of the Kumal Woman

Julia

Elizabeth was still sitting in front of the window of her room. It was early morning, but he was not asleep. His mind drifted where, either the handsome face of the man he helped or also about his family. What he feels now is just a story of himself that will change his life later.

A voice broke his daydream. Elizabeth tried to find the source of the sound, it turned out to be the sound from the direction of the gate. Elizabth saw a shadow of a woman who was settling down. From her posture Elizabeth very well recognized who the owner of the shadow was. Eva's shadow is her first sister, who tries to enter the house trying not to know her father and mother. It's early morning but Eva just got home. Isn't that outrageous.

Eva moved her legs slowly as she did. Elizabeth only took out her sneer because even if you knew it, you would just shut up and do nothing.

Elizabeth gave a sad grunt, lifted her body and walked closer to the reot's bed. There's nothing wrong with her why her mom hates her so much. Making mama very loved like a friend who loves his mother but it was difficult. Even looking at Luci's eyes he didn't dare.

Elizabeth finally fell asleep, she needed to close her eyes even for a moment. Not yet sound asleep, the voice of his mother had surprised him. Elizabeth rushes to the kitchen, she runs into Luci, a glass of cold water splashed onto his face by Luci. Eli did not dare to protest, even if he dared to malign it, his mother would be even more furious.

Elizabeth had realized her mistake if she actually woke up bad luck. Fortunately, there is bread preparation in the refrigerator so it does not take long to serve. After applying the jam then roast it. All are ready at the table waiting for food to be served.

Breakfast went fast, Elizabeth had also changed school clothes, not forgetting a backpack containing books and a change of clothes that will be worn later when working after school.

Every day Luci will spoil Eva who is considered a lucky child.

Eva is beautiful with blue eyes, a sharp nose, black hair, sensual lips, glowing white skin, long legs and a slender waist.

Added academic value Eva is really amazing, received at the flagship campus. I like a lot of friends, and I'm good at getting along.

In contrast to Elizabeth. She was a shy girl, dull black, black and wavy hair, short legs plus her face was ordinary. There is no more value.

Moreover, the way Eva dress is also more elegant while Elizabrth is just wearing shabby and shabby clothes. About friends. Elizabeth had no friends at all at school, they flatly bullied her, making Elizabeth a joke.

Today is the last day of the exam, so school hours are fast. There is still a chance for Elizabeth to meet her brother who is being treated in the hospital. Elizabeth misses Diego.

Elizabeth boarded a bus full of passengers, very crowded. Sweat drenched his body, his hair looked limp and dirty. A few moments later the bus stopped right in front of the small hospital.

Elizabeth runs small she can't wait to see her brother, some dry food is bought for Diego.

"Eli!" Said Diego when he found out Elizabeth had entered the room where she was being cared for.

The infusion hose is still stuck on the back of his hand, the oxygen hose is also still attached to his nose.

Elizabeth hugs Diego tightly, she misses her brother so much, if Diego is not sick of course she can protect Elizabeth.

"Don't be like this, I can't breathe." Said Diego

"I'm sorry, I missed you too much." Reply Elizabeth.

"Why are you crying, did you hurt me?"

"No."

"I'm sorry I couldn't protect you my sister."

"I'm just delivering this."

"What's? Save your money don't you want to go to college?"

"Hm."

"Why? Did mom ask you for money?"

Elizabeth did not answer what, she just lowered her head.

Diego took a heavy breath, if only he did not experience shortness of breath maybe he could take his sister to a place far from his mother.

About Luci's hatred of Elizabeth, Diego once asked her directly, her mother's answer made her angry.

Elizabeth had left the hospital for her workplace. She always takes the night shift to make it easier for herself to manage school time.

Elizabeth is one of the most diligent cleaning services. Many employees are employed in the department store, among other employees Eli never had a problem because their average life fate. Making money for family survival.

Elizabeth's closest friend is Julia. Julia has no family because she grew up in an orphanage. Julia's fate is somewhat better because of her own life that governs it, only Julia wrongly choose a lover who is a drunkard.

Julia's lover named Embre always uses Julia's money so that his life is not much different from Elizabeth.

Eli cleaned the floor in the dry food corridor of the department store, Elizabeth and Julia occasionally engaged in talks about the division of labor. Elizabeth's face always faces down because her eyes must be observant if a little found on the dirty floor she will clean it again otherwise the supervisor will cut her salary.

A buyer wearing a black jacket and sneakers in striking colors was watching him. His right hand still saw a bandage cloth to hold his hand due to injury to the chest. His face was handsome with a little mustache adorning his face. High with skin like milk.

"Well, Elizabeth?"

Eli looked up at his face. Seeing who called him, actually Eli felt surprised as long as he worked here no one had called him what else knew him.

"Kendrick?"

"You're here?"

Kendrick's question was not answered, because Eli was afraid that Kendrick would be ashamed of his work, even though the assumption was wrong.

Kendrick's smiling face bloomed, in contrast to Elizabeth, she immediately lowered her face.

It was Kendrick's opinion that Elizabeth didn't like it.

"All right, I'm going. Good job."

Elizabeth saw the handsome teenager's back drifting away, the end of his jacket strap dangling, his black jeans looking untidy and ripped, but it added to his masculinity. Eli was disappointed, only he did not want to make Kendrick embarrassed if seen talking to him. Eli remembered his mother's words that she was not beautiful, so Eli always felt inferior.

Julia approaches him because she sees Eli being greeted by a handsome teenager.

"Eli, is your friend handsome?"

"Not a friend, just accidentally met."

"Why don't you return the reply?"

"I'm..."

"Unbecoming? Don't feel inferior. You're actually sweet, it's just that you don't want to change your appearance."

"No, I don't deserve to have a friend let alone a man."

"You don't do that. Does your mom still distinguish you?"

Elizabeth simply fell silent without saying anything. A work supervisor snapped at them and the two split up to continue the work.

It was quite late, Elizabeth came out of the department store through the side door. Elizabeth with Julia went hand in hand, occasionally heard a joking voice to both. From the direction of the nearest bus stop, Kendrick is watching to both. A smile adorned Kendrick's face, for some reason she was very interested in the girl. Actually Kendrick often plays with some women at nightclubs or elsewhere, and they are very pretty for the size of the suburbs.

But Kendrick is tired of it, especially Eli's smile is very similar to his mother's smile.

Kendrick approached them and walked beside Elizabeth, Elizabeth was so surprised the handsome teenager was already beside her. Elizabeth smiled shyly, Kendrick knew that and she really liked Elizabeth's smile.
