CHAPTRE 37

"... Selina."

"Ray... I don't have anybody else. I feel comfortable here with you."

Ray felt suspicious of Selina's words when she was with him. Ray tries to think positively and hugs Selina back slowly.

"I'm sorry to ask that" Ray told Selina.

Ray finally got a job there. Ray now works on a cattle farm. Feeding cows and squeezing cow's milk, Ray finds good people there. Ray really worked hard to earn money.

Ray works 3 times a day in different workplaces. Ray always comes home at night. Every day goes like that.

Because Selina couldn't see Ray working so hard, Selina ended up looking for a job as well. Selina works in a bakery.

Five months have passed, Ray and Selina open up their savings that they saved during their paycheck from their jobs.

"We finally got half of it. Soon we can go home." said Ray to Seliina while holding the money that has been calculated.

And suddenly someone knocked on the door of their inn. It was the owner of the house they used. Ray and Selina have to pay every month.

(They speak in English. But Ty nuna dubbed it Bahasa Indonesia)

"Are you going to pay for it this month?" Ask a tall man who is none other than the owner of the inn.

"Yes, we'll pay for it this month."Answer Ray.

"Oh this I brought some more unused clothes for you Ray."

"Yes, thank you."

As long as Ray was there, Ray always got used clothes from the innkeeper. And Ray accepted it, because he had no clothes.

When Ray was talking to the man who owned the inn. Selina continued to pay attention to the money collected by Ray and herself.

After Ray talks with the innkeeper, Ray turns around and sees Selina holding their money, which Ray had calculated.

Selena...

Selina was suddenly startled after Ray called out to her.

"Oh, R-ray... I, I'm counting this money."

Ray just nodded his head and went into his room to tidy up the used clothes given by the innkeeper.

Even though the days were hard for Ray. Ray continues to do so, in order to return home and gather with the people he loves again and put Jovan into prison after Jovan tried to kill him.

Now that seven months have passed, Ray tries to reopen his savings to make sure. But when Ray opened his savings and calculated it, the money that should have increased was now getting less and less.

Ray was really surprised, Ray called out to Selina who was asleep.

Seline!

Ray shouted to him. Selina woke up and ran to him.

"What's the matter Ray?"

"Selina, the money that should have accumulated a lot now is actually reduced. Did someone steal it?"

Selina suddenly fell silent like a frightened person.

"Selina, I'm asking you. Why are you quiet?"

"Where do I know Ray... I never open it."

Suddenly Ray sat on the couch and held his head with both hands. Ray felt tired and hurt after knowing the money he had collected to return to Indonesia disappeared in half.

"Ray... We can look for her again" Selina told Ray.

"You take it easy, everything will be fine. We're gonna stay here a little longer and make some money to get back to Indonesia."

Ray is suspicious of Selina saying that they should stay here longer. While Ray has a lot to take care of when he arrives in Indonesia later.

"I-i mean... "

"Selina. Did you take the money?"

"Huh, I stole that's what it means."

"I'm sorry I'm suspicious of you, but security here is tight and 1% chance people will lose their property. I'm sorry Selina, but I want to see your room."

Ray, suspicious of Selina, quickly heads to Selina's room. Ray searched every corner of Selina's room wide enough to find her savings.

"Ray!!! What's wrong with you I didn't take it. What did I take it for!"

Selina's words were not heard by Ray. Ray remains firm on his stance, Ray believes if Selina took it.

And it's true that Ray found his savings. Selina hid it in a suitcase.

Ray really can't believe what Selina's doing.

"... Selinal. This is what, why you took it without my knowledge. I have no problem giving it to you, as long as you talk to me first. Tell me why you did it?"

"Ray... I-i."

"Say Selina!" Ray's rude attitude and always raise his voice when angry now appears again.

"ALRIGHT!!" Selina raised her voice as well after Ray got mad at her.

"alright... I'll tell you. I didn't mean to do it, I didn't need that money either. I hid it so that you continue to feel short of money to return to Indonesia. So you can keep working here and stay with me."

"What do you mean Selina?"

Selina approached Ray who looked confused by her attitude.

Selina walked up to Ray while shedding her tears. Selina suddenly held Ray's hands together.

"Ray... I love you, I want to be with you forever. I don't have anyone else, Ray. Stay here with me."

Selina's words made Ray completely distrustful. Selina thinks Ray is more than a friend.

"So for months we've been living here.You think I'm more than a friend?"

"Yes Ray... I saved your life. Now you have to repay me you have to pay for it with your life. I want you Ray."

Slowly Ray walked backwards from Selina. Ray still does not believe what Selina said.

Suddenly Ray walks towards the kitchen and picks up a knife.

"Here take this knife. You want to be paid with your life again, don't you, now kill me."

"N-no, that's not what I mean Ray. I want you to spend your life with me forever. I want to be a part of your life."

"Selina... Why would you do something like this, I want to be your friend forever nothing more than Selina."

"Selina, I'm tired of being here, I'm really working hard to raise that money to go back to Indonesia. I have a lot to fix there. I miss the people I love."

"And you hid all the money I've been collecting all this time."

Ray suddenly goes to his room leaving Selina in a fit of rage.

Ray!!!

Ray! I love you, Ray.

I have no one in the world except you Ray.

Selina continued to scream and cry in front of Ray's room door, which Ray locked from the inside.
