Butterfly In You
Chapter 1: The Lilis Decision


Lilis was constantly agitated on the bed. The stretch of blanket that covers half his body can feel the turmoil, because it is a victim of Lilis's urgency. Interested here and there is no direction.


If the blanket could talk, he would complain, "Sleep, Lilis! We're so tired of following your mood."


Lilis was also half-dead trying to sleep. From starting to practice yoga to counting sheep he has done, but never succeeded.


"Uh .. Why couldn't you sleep! It's twelve o'clock tonight, I'm afraid tomorrow I'll wake up late, huhuhu!" his grunts showed people crying.


His eyes that had asked to be closed, now could not be closed for a second. Lilis's thoughts were kept piqued by a marriage invitation from her employer. Plus the image of Shehan's face continues to sway in Lilis' brain.


Shehan Murad, a 32-year-old Turkish foreign national. He invested his capital in Indonesia by opening a resort in the Badung region, Bali province.


Shehan himself is classified as a handsome talking man. It is tall with light skin typical of Turks. Her brown hair was always drizzly, neatly combed as well. When Lilis finds her new employer awake though, Shehan's hair never looks messy.


The man likes to exercise, clearly visible from his proportional body sculpture. Having a firm, disciplined and serious personality, Shehan transformed into an authoritative figure, respected business partners and employees. He also speaks three languages - Turkish, English and Indonesian.


Two years Shehan lived in Bali using KITAS (Limited Stay Permit Card) investors. Soon, KITAS was turned into KITAS wife sponsor because he married Sarah Agatha. His love for his heart which is a WNI (Indonesian Citizen).


As a result of the marriage, the two were blessed with a beautiful daughter named Nurbanu. After two and a half years of marriage, Shehan wants to change KITAS to KITAP (Stay Stay Permit Card).


However, his wish was always put off by his own wife. As a result, two years later their marriage ended in divorce because Sarah-Shehan's wife, had another dream man. Jody Abraham - Sarah's dark lover who works as a singer in the Capital.


After her divorce from Sarah, Shehan intends to marry Lilis so that her residence permit can be sponsored by the girl. To smooth out the plan, Shehan offers to help build a home for Lilis in her hometown.


Lilis actually aspired to build a house because all this time, Lilis, her mother and younger brother-Doni lived in a rented house whose price continued to rise every turn of the year.


However, the girl was confused to think about how it would be to live a household without love. Moreover, the marriage offered by Shehan is just a contract marriage. A year later they would split up and, of course, Lilis would become a widow at a very young age.


Not to mention the condition of the heart. Lilis has just broken up with her boyfriend. His name was Hendra Wahyudi. Hendra is a neighbor of Lilis in the village. The man worked as a civil servant.


After two years together, Lilis and Hendra's relationship had to break up halfway. Until now, Lilis' heart has not been able to turn away from the former lover. Meanwhile, in her room Shehan was also thinking about the decision she had taken to get Lilis to marry a contract.


Why did Shehan choose Lilis? The girl who is definitely not the criteria of her dream woman to replace Sarah-former wife Shehan used to be. When compared in terms of appearance, Lilis and Sarah are very different.


Sarah is a fashionable woman, has a brilliant career as a designer also a high-class socialite. Her body is beautiful, elegant and beautiful. While Lilis, a simple girl who came from the village, shy and still innocent.


It was her innocence that made Shehan choose Lilis to make her a contract wife. Shehan thought Lilis would be a submissive figure if she became his wife. Not much behavior, nor will you ask for strange things.

The next day.


Shehan had gone to work five minutes ago and Lilis had just taken Nurbanu on a Kindergarten bus. Several times he waved at his master's son who was sitting by the window.


"Passionate learning, yes!" lilis exclaimed from outside the bus, standing on the sidewalk of the road.


"Yes, Brother!"


Nurbanu also returned a wave of Lilis' hands while smiling widely. After the bus drove away to Sunflower Kindergarten, Lilis entered the house.


In addition to caring for and nurturing Nurbanu, usually Lilis will help Mbok Tum clean up the homework. Tuminah or often called Mbok Tum is a domestic assistant who worked at Shehan's house since the man was still married to Sarah.


This morning there was no homework that Lilis had to do. Then, he took the time to call his mother-Nining Prameswari. Want to ask the news and tell her about Shehan's proposal last night.


Ddrrc ... Ddrrc ... Ddrrc ....


Three times the phone rings on the air, then Lilis' mother answered the phone call.


"Hello Lis."


"Hello, Mum. Mom, how's it going?"


"Good mother, Lis. Early in the morning phone calls, no more work, Lis?"


"Yes, Mom. Last time I drove Mr. Murad's son on a Kindergarten bus, I went to the kitchen to help Mbok Tum. But Mbok Tum said it was just a job to do the dishes so I was told to take a break."


"Oh .. so."


"How's Doni doing, Mom?"


"Good bangs, Lis. Just now he went to the copy shop, he said there was a college assignment that wanted to be photocopied. You're healthy, aren't you, Lis?"


"Lis, Si Hendra your ex-boyfriend was getting married next week."


"The hendra! Next week?" Lilis intonation is rising. He was surprised to learn his ex-girlfriend will suddenly have a wedding, next Sunday.


"Yes, Lis. He wants to marry Mr. Samad's nurse's son."


"Oh ...."


Lilis' shock is dwindling now. He knew Hendra and his future wife had been in contact for a long time. In fact, that's why Lilis and Hendra's relationship ended. Hendra is having an affair with Mr. Samad's daughter. Their neighbor was also named Tina Yulianti. Tina works as a nurse in a famous hospital.


"He's not your soul mate, Lis. Patient ones, son." Nining tried to encourage her son from across.


"Yes, Mom. I'm okay, co."


"Mother always prays that you may have a good husband and accept our condition as it is."


"Mom, I'm getting married too, Mom."


Suddenly the girl was determined, venturing out to say Shehan's offer last night. Whether because of jealousy because her ex-boyfriend is getting married next week or not, what is clear is that Lilis' words just spontaneously made Nining surprised not to play.


"Huh, are you right, son? Who do you want to marry, Lis?"


"With his Father-my foster-children, Mom."


"Well, your widower's employer?" Nining was even more shocked.


"Yes, Mom."


"What is true, Lis? Why is this sudden?"


"My master has loved me for a long time, ma'am." Lilis was forced to lie for fear that her mother would be disappointed and not approve of her intentions.


"Kok you just now story, Lis?"


"Because I'm afraid of indulging in relationships, ma'am. You know it's not like yesterday."


"So you already know her family, Lis?"


"Already, Mom. Pas Tuan Murad with his son video call to Turkey. I was there too. Known to his family."


"So you speak English, Lis?"


"Little bit, Mom. Taught Mr. Murad."


"If your employer is serious about you, ask to see Mom. Speaking directly to Mom. I want to see how the guy. Only you can decide, approve or not."


"Good, Mom. I'll tell you later Mr. Murad."


"Get health, son. Don't be so frugal. Mom and Doni still have enough money."


"Mother too, if you want something to say. Don't be held in your heart."


"Yes, son."


"Yes, Mom. I'm going to the kitchen again."


"Yes, Lis."


Tut ... Tut ... Tut ....


The conversation between mother and child over the phone was interrupted.

SERIATE...


How's proceeding? Will Lilis' mother approve?
