(Not) My Crown Ruler
011

It was late at night, in a room belonging to Anisa. The atmosphere feels lonely. Anisa sits on a 120x180 cm mattress all by herself while hugging a brown teddy bear from her biological father.

No friends, no friends, no interlocutors. Anisa silently stared at the ceiling of her boarding room while listening to a song playing from her phone. Sometimes the woman seemed to hum softly following the strains of the song to drive away the silence she now felt.

Anisa took a long breath. He saw a brown teddy bear on his lap. The slender white hand touched the bear's nose.

"Dad, quiet, Dad." Anisa said while smiling at the bear as if she was inviting the doll to speak.

"Nisa lives alone here now. There is no theme. Just a doll given by the father who became Nisa's chatter friend," said the woman alone.

"Dad knows, Nisa has met the man. Nisa thought, Nisa will be expelled and humiliated by the man. Nisa hesitated to see him this afternoon."

"But it wasn't that bad, Dad," he continued.

"He was willing to take responsibility as long as Nisa could prove that this child Nisa was her son."

Anisa hugged the doll. He looked up at the sky in his room. "Funny yes, Dad. Though clearly he who has taken the honor of Nisa. But he may doubt that this child is his. She thinks Nisa's a girl? She thought Nisa was a cheap woman that just any man could touch?! Cih, Nisa isn't like that Well, huh?" anisa said with tears that arrived dripping without permission on her cheeks.

"She thought, Dad. If all is proven that Nisa is really pregnant with her child. Will he really marry Nisa? Or is he gonna find another reason to derail our marriage?" nisa asked without anyone answering. He hugged her over the teddy bear.

"Actually Nisa didn't ask for a wedding, Dad. Because Nisa knows, our social caste is very different. Nisa does not want to be considered a double eye or live with him later. The rich are, Dad. He likes to insult difficult people. On cocky!" said Anisa again one was talking to the father who is now gone.

Anisa was silent. He stared straight ahead with various thoughts raging in his brain. Until arriving...

Gts ... Gts ... Gts ....

The door was knocked from the outside, making Anisa also aware of her daydream. The woman was silent for a moment, then got up and walked towards the door of her boarding room.

Czech ...

Door opens. Anisa was silent for a moment. Seen there, Almeer is seen standing at the door smiling with a milk pudding box in his hand.

"Sister Almeer?" said Anisa.

Almeer smile. "Salma's sister dapet the pudding order earlier. There's leftovers, you want to?" ask the man while lifting the pudding box.

Anisa was silent for a moment. Staring at the pudding in Almeer's hand then smiling sweetly.

"Repots, brother," said the woman.

Almeer smiled gently. "No, really. There is a remnant. Than not to eat. Eat first, gih."

Anisa smiled again then nodded. The two then sat their bodies in a long wooden chair that was on the terrace of the boarding house where Anisa lived.

Anisa opened the pudding box. Then start scooping the food and putting it in her tiny mouth. Almeer, who was sitting next to Anisa, was smiling.

"Nake?" ask Almeer.

Anisa turned, then nodded. Funny, very interesting in Almeer's eyes.

"Feculine. Not bad, there are nutrients for the baby in your stomach," said Almeer again. Anisa just smiled. He went back to eating the food with pleasure.

"Oh yes, Nis. How was? Did you meet the baby's real father?" ask Almeer.

Anisa was silent for a moment. He seems to slow down his hand movements. The pregnant woman turned her head towards Almeer then nodded with a stiff smile.

"How serious? He wants responsibility?" ask Almeer.

Anisa nodded. "He said he needed proof, brother. He will marry me when this child is born. He's asking for a DNA test."

Anisa seemed to be smiling stiffly. "Did she think I was a cute girl that just anyone could touch? Until he doubts that this is his son. Though it is clear that he is the first and only person who has robbed me of the things I care about the most," said Anisa sounded sad.

Almeer let out a long breath. He knew very well how Anisa felt. He must have felt humbled because he was doubted by the rapist*sa. The man seemed to be smiling softly.

"You're patient, yeah. At least he didn't run away from responsibility. Besides, it's not hard for you to prove it's the same. This is his son, isn't it?" almeer said encouragingly. Anisa did not answer. He just tried to smile in the midst of his heartache while nodding.

"Yes, you eat, gih. Let it be full" said Almeer. Anisa just nodded again. The two human children then again engaged in a warm and simple conversation in front of the boarding room while Anisa.

...****************...

Meanwhile, in a separate place. In a spacious bedroom belonged to an elderly man who appeared to be sitting on a wheelchair.

Chequek...

The door of the room was open. A handsome man in a neat appearance with an expensive suit attached to his body was seen walking into the spacious room. The twenty-eight-year-old man appeared to be approaching the old man who now set his eyes straight out the window of his room.

"Sir" said the handsome man, crouching in front of his grandfather, Mr. James Davis. The back of the wrinkled hand fell, then kissed it as a sign of devotion.

Mr. James smiled.

"You're home yet?" ask Mr. James.

"Yes, Cake" replied the man, Louis.

"How are you doing today?" ask Mr. James.

"As usual. There's always an up and down phase in every job, right?" said Louis.

Mr. James smiled. His hand touched the shoulder of the man who was his grandson.

"Don't be too tired. You'll be sick later" said the old man.

"I can take care of myself, Cake." The man grabbed the back of the old man's hand and then kissed him.

"What about your sister? Grandfather hadn't seen him in a long time" asked Mr. James.

Louis was silent for a moment. "Maybe he's still busy with his bar" the man replied.

Mr. James took a long breath. "When will he change? If only he could think of an adult like you, son."

Louis smiled. "Just pray quickly, Mother" said the handsome man.

"Yes, Grandpa rested, yeah. I'm going to the room too. Tired," said Louis later.

Mr. James smiled. "Yes, rest up. It's also late" said Mr. James.

Louis nodded. "Yes, I'm out first. Grandpa also do not forget to take a quick break. Grandpa can't sleep too late" Louis said. Mr. James just nodded with a smile. Louis then passed away leaving the place. He walked out of Mr. James's room, into his private room which was also on the same floor of the house while taking off his expensive black suit.

Chequek...

His bedroom door was open. He put the suit at the end of his king-size bed. The handsome man then loosened his tie, then sat down on the edge of the bed while taking out his cell phone from his pants pocket. Then he went to the WhatsApp app. Go into a chat room with someone he knows.

"Gue again in Japan!" the sound of a message sent from someone he knew very well.

Louis took a long breath. "Hubliness! Abis is making trouble, run away! Keep on kayak gini!!" louis said alone with an annoyed face.
