Duren's charm, my friend's Dad
Chapter 32

This morning I was almost late for school. Mr. Maman - the school guard had been willing to close the school gate fortunately I could run quickly and still be able to enter the school.

As usual, I fell asleep in class. Taking care of a big baby last night made me just take a little nap. Lila woke me up when the break bell rang, she was very understanding.

"Fanya, let's go to the cafeteria."

"Hm."

We went to the canteen together. Lila ordered her distress meatballs and I was the same, I didn't really choose the food that was important to eat enough.

"Now eat."

"Thanks." -."

Lila gave me a bowl of meatballs and a glass of iced syrup. It was fresh and my eyes were open again.

"You're up late again, huh?"

"Hm." While chewing spicy sauce meatballs ala Fanya, which I have blended with two spoons of sambal.

"What do you really work for? why do you always stay up?"

"Hehe." I just smiled at the horse. Lila didn't know what my job included my schoolmates because I always used another identity while working at the club. My dress is also very different from usual.

Yes, although sometimes there are people who peddle me peddling themselves, but I'm sure they just want to say it. Because I know I stay up a lot.

Lila also never got angry when I couldn't answer her question. He knows that I don't like to be meddled in my business.

"Aren't you tired, Nya. Later I told papah to let your salary tripled. So you don't have to stay up again for what work? My idea was good, right?"

"No Lila, how could that be. We just don't know how your value will be where I can ask for a lot of salary. No matter what, it doesn't matter, because I'm happy enough to see my friend improve."

"You are always rejecting the good of others. I can do what if you want it like that."

"Thank you Lila, you're good." I teased Lila, though,

When I saw Lila, I honestly felt guilty for hiding something from her. I don't know where to tell you because wherever Lila is going to be disappointed.

Especially if I accept Edward's offer to be his girlfriend. Maybe I'm ready to prepare something so big from his friend.

"Hi why, even daydreaming. Meatballs you've got flies in."

"Well! You fly." I had no appetite to continue eating.

...

After school, I went straight home because there was no schedule to teach Lila today.

Arriving in front of the house I happened to cross paths with my brother, Indra. From a distance I saw him very lethargic. Like thinking of something. Sometimes kicking small rocks on the road. Then his lips quivered to nag themselves.

"Sir Indra. Brother from where? why does it look so bad for my sister's face." I saw my brother up close.

"Fanya, forgive your useless sister. Brother hasn't got a job yet, but brother promised you."

"Oh my goodness Brother. So you're sad because of this. No, no need to think about it. We better get in first. I must have been waiting for us." I asked Indra to come into the house. Seeing it like this makes me not feel happy. It turns out Indra's sister has really come back like before.

I held my brother's arm when I entered the house. This is enough for me. Just caring about me is enough.

"Where have you been today?"

"So Brother went to some companies to ask about job vacancies but they immediately rejected brother. You're right, the predicate of the drunkard and the troublemaker will always stick to me. They don't want to give you a chance."

"It's okay, brother, I'm sure one day you will find the right job and make those who have rejected you regret."

"You could've been this big brother who made them regret."

"Of course you are my proud brother. Brother is a competent and responsible person at work. Brother also has brilliant ideas, big brother boss used to admit that until please brother to return to work right," I said proudly. Moments like this you just need our support.

"You're exaggerating. Brother is just trying to do his best."

I am happy to hear it, Indra did not brag for what he has including his ability. I want to be right first ex boss brother Indra always come here and ask brother Indra to return to work.

"Ehhh why did you not try to apply at the place you used to be. I'm sure the former big brother boss will be happy and accept the big brother back," I suggested.

"No, my brother has disappointed them. I'm ashamed of the boss or the employees there."

I understand, I also respect Indra's decision.

"Where did you go home last night?"

"Ohh that, I sleep in the house of the temen." I smiled stiffly. I had to lie again.

...

Malamannya. As usual we gathered together to accompany my sister to play. I happen to be without a job today. So I spent my time with my family. Spelling on mom. While my sister was in the room like her.

"Are you having a problem ?" ask Mother.

"No ma'am, just want to spoil this same. Oh yeah, when's the sister's therapy schedule?"

"Next week."

"I'm sorry, son, you shouldn't have to bear this burden."

I got up and looked at my mother. At least I can see my mom blaming herself.

"Mom mom said what. I don't feel that way at all. I'm glad I could do all this. Don't feel guilty anymore, I'm okay."

Mother nodded with teary eyes. I hugged her.

Did I just accept Edward's offer. He also promised to give my sister a job and pay for her to go to a better doctor. But I feel guilty for Lila. What if he finds out I'm related to his papa. Even if just pretending.

The night is getting late. I can't close my eyes thinking about all this. My mother and sister fell asleep next to me. I looked at their faces. A face that has not yet felt happiness. You are the same, you have to work hard every day. Wash the neighbors clothes and clean their house while looking after the younger brother. Mom is a great woman, no need to complain about her circumstances. Never left my father, even though I've made a lot of mistakes.

I know they deserve to be happy. In debt, our lives became like this. If we don't have any more debt, maybe we can enjoy life a little.

"Om Edward said if I changed my mind, I should call him."

I looked up Edward's cell phone number on my phone. Finally met. Then I sent him a message, saying that I might accept his offer.

"Send, just wait for a reply from Edward. It's okay, this relationship is only for a little while. It was only until Edward gained the trust of that investor. After that we have no more contact, right" I murmured reassuringly.

After a long time, Edward finally returned my order.

'Hmm, come to the apartment tomorrow afternoon.'

"What the hell does this mean, he agrees on what it isn't." I grumbled.

But if I quit the club. The boss will not agree. How will Edward take care of it. It is up to him, he who has asked me to stop working.

I'll find a better job after my father's debts are paid off.

...

Tomorrow

According to Edward's request, I came to his apartment. Still in school uniform because I came straight from school.

I rang the bell of that apartment. Not long after, Edward opened the door.

"Look in," he ordered.

I went into that place again. Depict the slippers and follow Edward behind them. We entered a room that seemed to be a place to work for him.

"Sit down."

"Ah yes."

Edward took something from his drawer. Then give it to me.

"Look."

I looked at the papers and read them. Turns out it was my father's debt repayment letter, I saw his nominal amount. Far more than the so-called loan shark last time. Apparently he kept his promise. I didn't expect it to be this fast.

"Om, why are there so many. Dad's debt isn't this much?"

"Do you think the loan shark would just let me pay off your debt. She still wants to pressure you into being a wife. If I don't pay double, he'll still collect the debt."

"Nonsolent, the old man. If I meet, I'll teach him a lesson with my own hands."

"The problem at the club has also been resolved. You don't have to go there anymore."

"Yes Om, thank you. I dreamt I could pay off my father's debt." I was really moved but didn't want to cry in front of Edward. "So what should I do for you?" my many.

"Tonight there will be a banquet. You must accompany me."

"But what clothes am I wearing?" I might have a nice dress.

"Later there will be people dropping off the dress for you while helping you with makeup."

I-i understand.

As Edward said. Someone came to that apartment. I was made-up by them and the result made me dumbfounded because it was so beautiful. Usually I dress up a little menor because I work at the club at once so that no one will recognize me as Fanya.

"Amazing out! Is this really me?" ask me not to believe.

"Surely miss, it's you. How, are you satisfied with the results of her makeup?"

"Like, I like it a lot. Not bad, but my face is beautiful."

"That's because Miss's skin is good and you are already beautiful from there. This makeup only helps to reinforce the beauty of Miss."

After I finished the makeup, I tried on the dress. After I finished wearing the dress I showed it to Om Edward to judge my appearance.

"Om, what about my appearance?" ask Om Edward who is busy with work papers maybe.

Edward looked at me with an indecipherable look. I'm so embarrassed that he saw me like that. Moreover, the top of this outfit is slightly exposed.

"What clothes is this! There are no other clothes!" Suddenly Edward was angry.
