The Primadona

Chapter 01 Earth the land of Pasundan

Kylie POV

My name is Kylie. I mean, that's my night name. My real name is Eli. Yeah right, I'm a lady by night. I work as a songwriter/lady escort at a karaoke bar & lounge. After the bar closes sometimes I accept open BO. I do all this because of circumstances. I had to be like this, I was the eldest of three brothers. And my current status is a one-child widow. I am the backbone of my family.

Edo is the name of my 6-year-old son. Edo's a special kid, he's not like a kid his age. She has cerebral palsy which makes her unable to attend school like other children her age. Edo, I give you that name because it's a combination of my name and my ex-husband's name. Eli and Doni.

Doni...

I don't really want to mention his name anymore. My past is buried deep. I don't want to open old wounds. I married Doni at an early age because I was already two-bodied. Maybe because I was pregnant at a young age so Edo had a brain development disorder.

I lived my tough life with Doni. I work as a manual laborer in a home factory that produces tempeh for a daily wage. And Doni, he's not much different than me. He worked odd jobs as a porters in the market. How our lives cannot be enough. But I'm staying for love, for the child I'm carrying.

Soon I opened the door to our contract which was only a patch for the sake of being able to quickly meet Edo. But when the door opened, what did I find? A horrible sight that is hard to forget. I saw Doni kissing each other in the butut chair in the living room. The destruction of my heart seemed to have been in vain all my sacrifices during this time.

I screamed so much that the neighbors crowded around our rented. And Edo woke up from his sleep crying because he heard my screams. From that day on, I never saw each other again or just heard the news about Doni. Because of that my father was in shock until he fell ill and died.

In order to bury the bitter past, after parting from Doni, I decided to wander into the city alone. While Edo I left it at my mother's house in the village. She was a year old when I left. My father is now gone, while my brothers are still in school and my mother needs money to meet her daily needs. At that time I did not know that Edo had cerebral palsy.

Without a definite purpose, I ventured to set foot in the city. Whether to apply for a job as what later, at least I can forget the bitter memories of a failed household. On arrival at the city terminal, I looked for a drink seller. Sitting down and drinking the glass I just bought, I looked at everyone who passed by. Accidentally my eyes were fixated on a beautiful woman who might not be much different from me. The makeup on her face was very graceful. I want to have the ability to apply makeup like that. During this time only know powder and lipstick sober so mainstay.
