The Shah of First Love

The Shah of First Love
PRIMPING



A week later, Kani was sent to Tangerang, a Chinese family again. He sends his address to Amarendra, the house where he works is very large, he is a two-room maid named Eki and Suci. Kani doesn't mind and she'll keep the boy in this house, four years old, her parents are friendly but not with their first child who keeps looking at Kani meaningfully. Their second child was also friendly, asking what his name was. Kani ignores the annoying 12-year-old boy. Do not let there are problems that he caused and threatened his work.


One Sunday Kani had trouble getting closer to the child she was raising, the new third Sunday the child wanted her to hold and play. Kani was horrified to see CCTV everywhere. Plus there are dogs that always bark when they see it. Every morning Kani has to come to school, take care of her outside, and meet with their Baby Siter from another foundation.


One month of no significant difficulties, Kani was only always upset when the firstborn always made the child she was raising cry. Until the male master threw a cruel stare. Kani tries to be patient, massaging her chest, but the boy gets bolder and when he forbids her stomach is kicked instead. Kani felt like she was going to spit out her bowels, pain, pain, nausea. He complained to both of his employers but he got angry.


Kani cried two nights because of a bruised stomach. Amarendra on the phone continued to calm her down until she was content to complain and complain. Those who were one room with him slowly displayed their true nature. Often try the goods, leaving no rice, do not want to lift the clothesline when it rains until he got angry because the uniform was all wet. He was forbidden to wear ordinary clothes but for these two days he was safe because obviously his clothes rained.


Kani is always invited everywhere but she can only swallow when sitting alone, not fed, only told to get sauce for the son of a bitch. Kani is often late to eat, it's her weakness, the third month of her salary was cut for not working for four days, they complained to the Foundation and she was reprimanded. Do they think he's a robot who'll never get sick and tired? Kani swallows all her bitterness and begins to get uncomfortable when the driver who every morning takes her with the flirtatious foster child, fills her pulses, buys her food, and, it is old Bangka but still looking for the attention of young leaves. Kani never responded, the incoming pulse he changed until he had to block the driver's mobile number.


The longer Kani is uncomfortable, she is even banned from going home, it must be once a year and not on holidays. They're afraid he won't come back. It's good about the salary but Kani is not comfortable with the firstborn, the driver, the two maids, and she can't meet with Amarendra. A week after Lebaran, she gets a salary and THR is detained, fearing she will mess around. But he had planned it.


Kani brings out her belongings little by little, she tucks in a stall near the school the child she's foster in, she leaves after reasoning to buy a sanitary pad to the minimarket. Amarendra ketar-ketir fearing something happened to Kani, they agreed to meet at the Bandung Terminal.


Kani carries a backpack and sling bag hanging over her shoulder. He was free and went to the toilet, changed his clothes and sat outside the toilet. He did not want to meet Amarendra after a long time in a state of Kumal and smell. Kani doesn't care about those who pay attention to her.


After finishing, Kani combed her hair half wet, she went to leave the toilet in a neat state and called Amarendra who had noticed her behavior.


“Where?” Kani hush.


“You bathe for twenty minutes, dress up fifteen minutes before that too I've been waiting. I'm up to the hour waiting for you, Kani.” She laughs.


Kani bites her lips and turns around, seeing the man approaching and she looks down embarrassed. Amarendra also looks curly hair that he did not have time to cut, fatigue is clear on his face.


“Do you have to get there to meet me?” She teases and Kani glares.


“This is for my own convenience not for you,” he denied and Amarendra shrugged. She takes over Kani's cramped bag and Kani notices her. He narrows Amarendra's hand and Amarendra resigns, the two walking together.


After foraging, the two boarded the bus. Kani is very tired, unable to sleep all night thinking about her intention to run away. Amarendra watched Kani's wrist and grabbed it.


“It's just a regular bracelet, it's natural to break, after all it's been a long time. Use mine only.” Amarendra fills the wrist again, he has carved a promise, later he will replace the cheap bracelet with a white gold bracelet. Kani smiles and she pulls something out of her sling bag. Amarendra was confused and noticed the girl growing up in his supervision.


“For you.” Kani put on a watch and Amarendra pulled her hand. “Why?”


“Don't buy anything for me, save your money instead of going to school?” Amarendra looked on and Kani had already buried deep in her desire. The one who filled his head was just looking for money and being with Amarendra.


“I'll be mad if you refuse, I know your watch is broken.” Kani snickered and pulled that big hand. Amarendra kept quiet, letting him. “Good, I bought this in the Mall. Birthday gifts, although yes, have come a long way. We haven't seen each other for almost a year because they've captured me.” Kani's upset. Amarendra looked at his watch and thanked him.


“Your birthday has also passed, I bought something, but at that time you forbid me to come to Tangerang even though I actually could be desperate to meet because I miss and want to give this.” Amarendra gave me a small box, it was red, a little butek, every day he saw it and hoped to meet the girl he loved.


Kani likes a pair of earrings even though she actually does not like to wear earrings. He pulled his long hair back and Amarendra pulled his hair slowly. The man was silent looking at Kani's earlobes. Grabbing one earring and Kani grimacing, it hurts and Amarendra is shocked. It's installed and he's paired the other one. Kani saw it from her cell phone camera. He wanted to capture the moment and Amarendra looked at him again and again. He feels pangling every time he meets after a long time even though every day he communicates, his body language even looks a bit stiff.


It took him some time until he got used to it again and now Kani is asleep, leaning on his shoulder. He clasped the girl's shoulder, dropped his chin on the top of Kani's head, he's getting scared now, afraid Kani has another man.


The spoiled girl he knew had turned so brave and mature, willing to suppress all suffering in order to bring money to his family, he said, willing to bury his desire deeply even though Amarendra had seen Kani's eyes water as those in gray white uniforms passed by. Amarendra wanted so much to kiss the moon in his arms, he patted his own forehead, he could not help but feel close to Kani.


“Maren.”


“What?”


“Still long?”


Amarendra stared out the glass of the bus.


“Still away, Kani, sleep.” Amarendra tightened his arms and Kani hugged his stomach tightly. Amarendra sighed. She should have slept to be safer but was afraid of a copet. Kani pocketed big money. He did not understand how to send money and no one had an account in his house. But four months of Kani's salary is in Amarendra's account. Amarendra gave her account number when Kani was afraid that the maid at her house would take her money for using her things.
