ALVARO BETTING GIRL
105

A girl was seen kneeling and in front of her a woman wearing a knee-length black dress with sunglasses perched on her nice nose. The girl looked frightened but the woman did not stop babbling. The girl did not speak a word until the woman's phone rang and she picked it up.

"Where, baby, when are you coming home?" ask the woman.

"Oh, so your business over there is done? As planned?"

"Okay, see you honey."

The call ended, the woman kept her phone in the bag and then she looked back at the girl who was still kneeling before her.

The little girl in plain clothes, the top of the shirt and then the subordinate only wore knee-length jeans. She was about nineteen years old and her frightened face still looked beautiful just not so well-groomed.

"So, are you ready to replace all the money I've made you and your family now?" ask the woman cynically.

The girl shook her head and she started crying. His body was shaken by his cries. The tiny body was so sad that it was also afraid of this woman.

"I don't have any money yet, Miss Miranda. I'm still waiting for my salary" he replied.

"Wage?" miranda asked in a mocking tone. "How much is a salary as a cleaning service? Would not be able to. I told you, I want Tara! Why don't you follow me? If you do that I guarantee all your debt to me will be exhausted!"

Tara's getting down. Where might he do Miranda's request. Indeed the risk he will get caught up in the plan is small, but what he fears is precisely he is trapped in the anger and wrath of his boss. Tara was afraid, just once she saw that she was already afraid, how could she possibly do Miranda's plan which was very extreme according to her.

Long Tara was silent until Miranda decided to leave. Just a few steps, Miranda stopped her steps. Without turning around he said, "Gue is waiting for your decision tonight. You want to do what I ask or you're ready to live on the street and be a vagabond. Nyokap you whose illness will die on the streets. All decisions are in your hands, Tara."

After Miranda's death, Tara's body fell on the floor. He felt as if he had no more bones in his body. Miranda was so scary and she also did not know how she owed the demon-hearted woman.

The options Miranda gave Tara could not choose because she could not afford both. He owes tens of millions but he doesn't have that kind of money. Or execute the plan by trapping the boss in his place of work with a scandal that will damage his boss' reputation and of course himself as well. Tara was so confused, all the options were very heavy for her.

"Sir Ikram, can he help me solve this problem? Did I just tell him? But how? Does he trust me? I couldn't trap him to sleep with me either. Besides him in trouble I'll lose my chastity if that happens. Especially if the boss Ikram to know everything has been planned then I will also be affected. It was like falling down a ladder. I have lost my chastity and I believe boss Ikram will also repay my actions. How am I supposed to do now?"

After a long daydreaming, Tara finally decided to leave this park. It was late and tomorrow he had to go back to work. Moreover, he had left his mother long enough only to meet Miranda who actually added to the burden of his life.

Arriving home, Tara finds her mother waiting for her on the porch. The house was simple, the one that Tara and her mother had contracted to for the past year. The two live together after her father died a few years ago when Tara was still in school.

"Assalamu'alaikum, mama why are you outside? It was late afternoon, enter yuk. Later mama can get sick," invited Tara who immediately memapah mama into the house. He closed the door and took his mother into the room.

"Wa'alaikum salam. Mama's waiting for Tara, mama's tired of being inside" she replied.

"Yes, Tara wants to take a shower. Later we have dinner together," said Tara, not forgetting she kissed the mama's cheek before she left.

Until two o'clock in the morning, Tara was still thinking. He could not bring his mother to live on the streets with this kind of pain. He also could not do Miranda's request which was too risky. He must take the middle path.

"Yes, either boss Ikram will hear me or not, but I will try to tell him about Miranda's plan. I don't want to get into a scandal with that horrible guy. I could have killed him" muttered Tara.

After getting her decision, Tara slowly began to close her eyes until she fell asleep.

Alvaro opened his eyes, the first he saw was a room with white shades. Then he circulated his gaze and all he saw was a kram. He also knows where he is now. Wanted to wake up but it felt like his whole body was so crumpled. He remembers the last time he was at Nurul's house and fighting with Danish, but how he was in the hospital and how long he was unconscious.

Alvaro suddenly remembered Nurul. The clock on the wall was showing at nine in the morning and she was worried that Axelle had come to propose to Nurul. He can't stay like this, he has to go out and make sure everything.

"Why you? Do you still want me to get sick?"

Eh?

Alvaro recognized the voice, so sniffy and who else if not the lucknut sister-in-law candidate if Alvaro said.

Danish who sat down while checking the work on the sofa put down the laptop and walked towards Alvaro's bed. The video there was just silent while checking some incoming emails on his phone.

Alvaro circulated his gaze, he could find the figure of Nurul but empty. There were only two of these men in the room.

"Lu nyari Nurul?" asked Danish who was already sitting on the bench that was near the gurney.

Alvaro nodded. Danish screeched, he sometimes did not like to see Alvaro who was too washful of Nurul without realizing he was the same towards Clarinta.

"He doesn't exist! Don't expect to see him. If you have better mending you go home, do not need to stay here for long," said Danish with a thin and flat look on his face.

"What?! How come you told me to go home after you hit my handsome face? It's not fair that brother-in-law. We should all be discussing my wedding plans with Nurul. Ogah I was told to go home after bonyok gini," said Alvaro did not accept. It's been as sick as this even to be rushed to the hospital, instead of being invited home to discuss wedding preparations but instead get eviction.

"Ro, can't you if you say a little filter. I know you've been bego since you fell in love at the same first sight of Nurul, but don't have to be crazy too," said Ikram reprimanding his best friend. Ikram wants to sink Alvaro to the bottom of the ocean for his best friend to be sane again.

Alvaro simply poked his lips and then raised both his shoulders. Whether Alvaro cares about the word of the Ikram, of course not. He did know and realized since falling in love with Nurul he became a man less sane.

"Three months" said Danish suddenly who immediately made Ikram and Alvaro look at him. "Gue give you three months to win my family's heart if you can. Competitively you're heavy, he's my best friend too and you're nobody to me. That jam, I don't want to get married before me. He may have two or three children, but I don't have one. In these three months I want to get married and get married. After that either you or Axelle, please nain to the house to propose. Remember, three months!"

After saying all that, Danish immediately left without saying goodbye leaving Alvaro and Ikram looking at each other.

"Kram, how can I be identical to the word three months huh?" tanya Alvaro felt cooed.
