Ace's Lie

"Mama, Rangga I'm coming home" Ace shouted from the door as he opened the shoes he was wearing.

There is no lawfulness. Ace stepped into the room of the mother and saw Mama Rina who was also about to come out of the room. Ace stretched his arms to hug his beloved mother.

"The ladder of Mana ma."

"Therefore. Maybe get out for a minute."

Ace leads Rina's mother back to bed. Ace can see if the look on his mama's face is not as happy as yesterday when he found out he had gotten a job.

"What's the matter ma. Any issues?" ask Ace. Mama Rina took a deep breath.

"Rangga needs money to pay for school. Where do we get that kind of money. Mama doesn't want Rangga to drop out of school. But mom can't do anything."

Ace felt sorry to see his mother who cried too often because of their circumstances. Mama Rina is not used to living a difficult life just because the betrayal of her husband who is none other than Ace and Rangga's birth father which causes the woman to live hard as it is today.

The person who had just been asked had now appeared in front of the door with a face that was holding back in anger.

"Ladders. Where are you from and why are you. Any issues?" ask Ace. Rangga's hands are seen clenched with draped teeth.

"I want to destroy Mr. Hardi mbak. He's insulting our family."

"What do you mean. Did you just come from Mr. Hardi's house?" ask Ace confused. The young man nodded his head.

Ace who could see there was still anger on his sister's face pulled Rangga out of her mother's room. Mama Rina's health is not good for hearing heavy things. Ace was very sure if something was wrong between Rangga and Pak Hardi.

"Tell me about it. What really happened," Ace said softly after they were in Rangga's room.

"Mama said. Ma'am will stay at your employer's house. I took the initiative to borrow money from Mr. Hardi to pay for my tuition. But Mr. Hardi doesn't give unless we agree to give up this house to him. I don't agree then Mr. Hardi says if it's not for him. We are no longer alive and have rotted in the ground by starving to death."

Ace also got angry to hear the story from Rangga.

"Did he say that?" ask Ace to make sure. Rangga nodded his head. The young man's blood boiled over hearing Mr. Hardi's humiliation and intended to fight Mr. Hardi but Aunt Rosma's pull made the fight not happen. Rangga also heard Aunt Rosmah's advice until she left the cruel loan shark's house.

"He also gave us two weeks to pay off all our debts. Otherwise, he will drive us out by force from this house," said Rangga making Ace even more afraid. Two weeks is a very short time to pay off debts of hundreds of millions.

"No, no. This house cannot fall into the hands of Mr. Hardi," Ace said and repeatedly shook his head.

Mr. Hardi is famous for the very wealthy loan sharks around their neighborhood. He had a large vacant lot and a rented house. All of that comes from loan shark efforts. But it is not all from the proceeds of interest that are loaned except by forcibly depriving the loan of collateral. Like Ace's house that has a selling price of one billion. But Mr. Hardi will force the Ace family to give up the house with a debt of only hundreds of millions. There was no additional fee given by Mr. Hardi if Ace was willing to give the house to him.

"Truly mbak. I don't want to either. How about we ask Papa for help?" ask Rangga.

"Don't" Ace answered quickly.

"So how donk mbak," said Rangga restless. He didn't want to be kicked out of that house.

"Believe me. And don't act rashly. You don't trust me and see the results. Come home to deliver the money you need."

"Certainly mbak?. Rangga's eyes sparkled and Ace nodded his head. Ace offered the two million he had raised earlier from Hans' bonus to Rangga.

"Thank you, ma'am." Ace nodded his head.

"And this is for your pocket money," said Ace again giving two pieces of red money. Rangga increasingly sparkled his eyes because only this time getting that much pocket money.

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Don't run out. Learn to skimp," Ace said.

"Sir, our house will not fall into the hands of Mr. Hardi right," said Rangga again. It turned out that the money that was already in his hands was unable to shift his thoughts about their home.

"No. Whatever I'm going to do for this house" Ace said.

Actually Ace would not be willing to give his body to Mr. Hans but for the convenience of his sister and mother. Ace has to sacrifice.

"If I had to give my body to Mr. Hans. Hopefully someone will be able to accept my past" Ace's inner self. Tonight he's ready to serve Mr. Hans for the house.

"Mama, Rangga's tuition has settled yes. This is money to keep watch. If my mother has a complaint. Take Rangga to the hospital," said Ace and gave the same amount of money as Rangga's tuition.

"Didn't you get your salary at the beginning of a full month. So why, is this still there?" asked Mama Rina curiously. Ace is his daughter. The woman was scared, her daughter was selling herself out there let alone Ace not going home every day. A mother's instincts are strong. Mama Rina's fear is the truth. Ace will sell his body under the guise of a servant to Mr. Hans.

Ace was confused to answer because if he had to tell the truth it would not be possible. Ace turned the brain to find answers so that the mother did not suspect.

"Aunt Santi lent it to me ma. On condition that next month be paid."

Finally Ace brought Aunt Santi's name to cover up his lie.

"really so. You didn't do anything weird out there, did you?" ask Mama Rina full of search.

"Yes ma. Trust me. Our employer is a wealthy businessman. The house is very spacious. Bibi Santi's salary alone is three times my salary. Aunt Santi has been working there for a long time. I also if you feel at home will be raised ma salary," said Ace increasingly make a new lie. His employment agreement was only one month and did not know if it would be extended later but Ace had already told him about the raise.

"Is your boss young?" ask Mama Rina again.

"No ma. It's very old. His wife is younger than the male employer."

To prevent Mama Rina suspect finally Ace said if his employer is old and married. Unlike Hans who was young and also the status of a widower. Ace said that so that Mama Rina would believe what she said..
