It took about 45 minutes for Azura to arrive at her rented house. The house is minimalist but quite comfortable for him and Melody. They have been in the house for almost 5 years, more precisely since his parents died and since then he also tried desperately to pay off the debts of his parents who continued to grow because of the interest that seemed to continue to breed. The reason, because they are too long in installments so do not blame their debts. The initial installments were only 1 million per month, then increased to 2 million per month, then increased again, again, and again until now the installments to 25 million per month. Therefore when getting 250 million money from Kencana, Azura immediately paid the old bandot 200 million. Then when he gets another transfer of 750 us, all the money he paid until only a few hundred million left. Mr. Jono was quite surprised to see Azura could pay his debts up to hundreds of millions once paid. Of course he was curious to the point that he suspected Azura had sold her virginity in order to earn that much money.
Arkandra's car has been perfectly parked in front of Azura's rented house. Hearing the roar of the car in front of his house, Melodi who had not fallen asleep then peeked out of the curtain gap. He widened his eyes when he saw Azura who was carrying the car. Without hesitation, Melodi directly leaned Azura with questions when she saw her brother had entered the house.
"Sir, whose car is that? You can't rob, right?"
Azura then mentoyor Melodi's forehead, anxious with the question he threw.
"I'd be crazy to be a robber, Di." he said as he laid his body on the sofa. "That's the doctor's car. He asked to take his car home and he told his brother to take it first. Entar new morning brother balikin." he replied indifferently.
"Cie Cie, double as the driver's mom." teased Melodi who landed her ass on the single sofa opposite Azura.
"Why not sleep? It's late, Di. Don't sleep late! Not good for your health." said Azura did not want to respond to ledan the sister.
"Yes, brother, Odi just hasn't drowned. Never papa dong kak, not often I stay up too." he was worried he was found out not long ago home. "Sister, Odi laper, want to cook instant noodles, brother want?" tasteless Melody.
"Cabe, mustard greens, eggs, sausages, ... "
Azura chuckled while pointing her thumb towards Melodi.
Melodi also began concocting her brother's favorite noodles. That night they spent chatting while eating instant noodles. Something they have rarely done since Azura was busy working to support her sister and pay off the debts of her late parents.
The hour hand has shown at 1 am, but neither Azura nor Melodi's eyes can be closed. Now they lay themselves in their own bed. Their minds seemed to drift into the life they were living. Theatricals. Yeah, they're doing a show with their respective partners. Not a real partner but a couple who is forced to be a couple for a purpose. In their hearts, I hope it all ends well. There is actually a fear in their minds. But there is one thing that they are most afraid of, which is falling in love with each other because they know, men who are now their partners are not ordinary men. They are too high to reach. In addition, this relationship is only temporary and limited in time. A relationship is nothing more than a deal.
Azura sighed softly as she recalled the kiss that Arkandra had done in the car earlier. His mind wondered why Arkandra did that. He could see that Arkandra was enjoying the kiss. But ...is it possible? It could have been just a trick for him to fall and be lulled into his charm.
While Melodi, she was sighing softly while staring at the ceiling of her room that was not clearly visible because of the lights of her room were extinguished. Given the attitude Gerald and his family were so kind to him made him worry. The family was so warm. He was worried, how the family would react if he knew he had played them. I can't fool the family. No one is behaving badly. They are so warm, caring, and affectionate. Being in their midst reminds him of his family.
'O Allah, forgive me for deceiving the family. May we end it well without any hatred or heartache afterwards.' Inner Melody is full of hope.
