ELENA: The Quiet Girl
16

In a mansion, a middle-aged woman was busy reading documents regarding one's personal status year after year.

With his current status it was not difficult to search for information that could only be obtained with money.

"Even so, as a mother, I want to know everything about my daughter."

When he opened the second document, he was surprised to see a doctor's paper tucked away and dropped to the floor.

While reading it, his whole body shook violently, his heart was like sliced, he did not know if his five-year-old daughter had had a severe accident.

"My daughter, Elena ever lost her memory?!"

GECK... GECK

Uncompleted he read all his documents, suddenly someone knocked on the door. In a hurry, he immediately stored the document in a safe place.

"Mama, said grandma you're not feeling well?" william said from outside the room.

The grandmother was a housemaid who was in charge of preparing food, although she was old she loved making food because of that the grandmother also served the William family.

"O-oh, yeah Will. Sorry to worry you, Mama wants to go back to sleep."

Hearing that William was still curious whether his mother was actually sleeping because the voice he heard was like the sound of people crying.

"Alright, take care of your health, Ma."

Elsewhere, Elena was busy accompanying Vienna around. From going to the doll shop, to the safari park to see rare animals.

"Youth energy is great, right?" muttered Elena who was panting. The girl sat on the garden chair while enjoying the cool afternoon breeze.

Without Elena noticing, someone heard her mutter. "You talk like an old man."

Elena immediately looked back, she saw Erix with a shirt and black hat on her head while showing off her sweet smile.

"You're like a tail, aren't you? follow along" Elena said with her flat face.

"It's okay you think I'm that." Erix walked around to the front of the chair. "Can I sit down?" he asked while pointing at the empty spot next to Elena.

"No."

"Okay, thank you." Erix immediately sat down, she did not care about Elena's repulsion.

"I said no fool!" chirped Elena's upset. Erix looked at him with a smile.

"I don't care about rejection."

"In that case, I'll leave before you come" Elena said.

"Elena, may I ask you a question?" ask Erix suddenly. Elena nodded small. "Do you like William?"

Elena flinched, she stared fixedly at Erix's face. "Why all of a sudden?"

"Jawab only!"

"Now, I don't know." Elena turned her eyes back to the front.

"You can't like it!" erix Pinta.

"Who are you banning?"

"Because only I can like-"

"Sorry, lama. I didn't know the queue was so long!" vienna interrupted Erix's words suddenly. "Eh? why is there someone else here?"

Vienna was standing right in front of the two, astonished to see the foreign man constantly bowing his head.

"Who is he, El?" ask without further ado.

"No idea" Elena replied. Spontaneous Erix was surprised by it.

"Ohh, great to be here too?"

Vienna kept staring at the totally unflappable Erix, the man looked like a dog afraid of his master.

"Hey, look at me!" vienna Pinta. Erix quickly shook her head. "If you don't, I'll break your neck so you can keep your head down for life."

"I hate rude girls like you!" cetus Erix, despite his greatest fears, still remains his true identity, which Vienna may have known easily.

Before leaving Erix whispered something to Elena.

"Sorry, El. This is why I didn't accept your offer. I hate your friend this one, even now."

After that, Erix immediately ran away leaving the two behind. Vienna gave Elena a drink.

"Tomorrow, I don't want to go with you anymore" Elena grumbled to stick a straw on her drink.

"Don't do that, my heart hurts to hear it!" vienna protest.

Elena looked at Vienna in disbelief. "Don't you like me?!"

hearing that Vienna immediately shuddered in horror. "Aren't there any more men in the world until I have to turn?" vienna chattered.

Elena gave a small chuckle, looking at Vienna's look as if she was still relying on the man to answer her question clearly.

"Alright, I'm home" Elena said, rising from her seat.

"Wait, you haven't even finished your drink!"

Elena stared at her glass drink. "Oh, this is so good, I'm not even willing to spend it."

Leon opened the door of the apartment very carefully, he walked through the dark hallway of his house. Hoping that the man would not know of his coming.

Unfortunately, just arrived at his doorstep, the lights suddenly lit up. He saw his brother who was standing next to the exit.

"It's good, kid just got home at this hour?" sia said with a smile.

"Don't be pretentious to set up!" Leon pulled out the room key from his pocket.

"It's good that a child's way of speaking is like an om-om."

Irritated that Leon could not open the door properly, many times the key he held fell because of wrong entry.

"Listen, you've been smart, huh, until you never came to study with Elena again?"

"Whisper! whether I come or not it has nothing to do with you!" leon snapped, the door was opened, the little man quickly entered his room.

"Of course there's a fool, I'm your brother!"

Sia took her phone, and she sent Elena a message to help her melt her sister's heart.

"Where's my pay?" pinta Elena extended her hand.

"Where, work used to be paid!" sia was upset. Elena still showed her flat face.

"I'm sorry then."

"Ahh, yes-yes. This painting is yours!" sia said with a breath that was still gasping for breath as it ran inside taking out the payment Elena wanted.

Elena smiled happily getting an abstract painting consisting of white, blue and red. Just seeing it makes the heart happy.

"How's your job?"

Elena kept the painting carefully, then walked towards Leon's room.

Just talking a little, the door of his room was already wide open, Sia who saw that was only speechless.

"So you have a problem with your classmates?" elena asked while eating Leon's snacks.

The little guy just nodded while looking down. "I used to love Fera!" furious Leon later.

"Then?" This time Elena switched to drinking Leon's Yakult.

"I don't accept it! though I've been honest with him but why does he always invite Fera to study together?!" continued Leon.

"Hmm, I think I know why you're ditching my tutoring."

"What's? that's how quickly you found out?!"

"First, can I spend this?" elena asked showing her the one remaining snack.

"It's over, damn it!"
