Jakarta - Tokyo Love Story
65. Severely

Kalula stood up with his shabby shoes as they had been worn for years. In front of the house that was luxurious for him but for Amelia Santono felt ordinary that he stared in admiration with sculpting.

Oh, Amelia Santono has a more magnificent house than this one. More precisely in Bali. Rarely did he visit, until now he used the house for property and rented it for filming.

"Why are you surprised? This house is not too big when compared to other houses in this complex. Comein. I live alone so this little house alone is enough." Amelia Santono nodded at Kalula's hand to enter.

Little house? Though...

Why are rich people so often? Low to rise.

The door was opened by a special servant. Kalula was quite surprised to see all the employees in this house wearing uniforms. It really is kind of in a palace, or yes a luxury hotel.

Well, even with the floor he stepped on Kalula was amazed. Obviously this house is designed with luxury, reflecting that the owner is quite tasteful as well.

Yes, this house was designed by Andrew Laksema, aka his father Seira. They were brothers once. Although now Seira's biological mother aka Amelia Santono's sister divorced the bule man. Their relationship is still pretty good.

But this is a big house? Why did Miss Amelia Santono say this was small? Kalula muttered in the heart. Oh, if Bu Amelia Santono knew her house in a narrow alley that might even be the size of the bathroom of this house. Even the bathroom in this house is more luxurious and large.

Kalula stared at the magnificent ceiling like a dome within the royal palace. He's stunned. Stunned again. Usually the house of a rich man like this can only be seen in soap operas or films. Now he looks directly. With your own eyes. Ughhh! Call it Kalula tacky! Yes, he was tacky.

Being born, living, and raised in a lower environment made Kalula rather tacky at seeing this luxury. Luxury homes usually he just passed by with the mind as to what it looks like in it. Ah, this time the innocent Kalula came in and convinced himself.

From the end of her eyes, Amelia Santono smiled wryly.

Oh, obviously this kid is innocent. Just look at the house like this he was amazed not playing.

"Mom Amelia said I had a child, right? He doesn't live here?" Kalula asked curiously.

About this son, Madam Amelia Santono is always closed and from earlier seemed to shy away from Kalula's questions. Either true or Kalula's feelings alone. He feels so.

"Yes, he used to live here. Long ago. After his father died, he left the house. That's the cycle of having a boy. Argument, argument, anger, escape.

I'm not really the type of regulator. But my son is my only hope. The only one I have. Maybe I was too hard, but all I did for his future.

You may have heard a story from Shanty about my office. Yes, I run various business areas. Thousands of people depend on us. If I can't work and take care of it anymore, will you depend on who they are?

Going back to that point, my son defied. But it's good lately he became obedient and made me relieved because he finally promised to be told to continue the business. He still does not want to go home. He lives in an apartment alone." Amelia Santono explained.

If Kalula is observant, actually the story of Lady Amelia Santono can be drawn and culminate in one name: Edward.

But Kalula is too innocent to be prejudiced. Even when passing through the wall that there was a large frame hanger only he did not see the strangeness there. Yet it is so obvious its awkwardness.

Yes, the wall originally posted a family photo. Little Edward, young Lady Amelia Santono, and her now deceased father Edward. But because Kalula wanted to come here, Madam Amelia Santono had her employees put away the big, flashy photo.

Even earlier when picking up Kalula at the hospital, Amelia Santono whispered to Shanty again about this. "Don't get caught if I pretend. About my mother Edward, hide it first."

And Shanty just nodded, even though his heart thought about what Kalula was doing now? How did Lady Amelia Santono treat her? Shanty is worried about the young girl who just became his friend.

"Mbak Shanty already told me about my job desk so aspri. But should I stay in this house, Miss Amelia?" Kalula asked awkwardly.

Yes, this is a luxury home. But still Kalula actually wants to stay at the boarding house. Own place that is cultivated itself is more comfortable than other people's luxury homes.

"Yes. Wh why? I want you to stay here. That's my terms of cooperation. Changed mind?" Amelia Santono is bluffing a little. He knew the young girl would be easy to control later.

Kalula just shook his head then nodded. He obviously didn't want to change his mind. It's a good job.

"Santy used to live in this house for a few months, Kal. He's okay-okay, though. It just so happened that I was in pain again. So need a friend who also keeps 24 hours." Amelia Santono talks about pain. The pain he had been hiding all this time.

"Amelia's mother is sick?" Kalula looked surprised. The two of them stood under the stairs, with a contrasting appearance.

Amelia Santono was silent. This is the reason for Edward's rush to get married and continue the business. Yes, he was afraid his age did not arrive because the disease was getting worse.

Amelia Santono's disease is quite rare. If it is explained to ordinary people using medical terms, it seems they will not understand. What is clear is that he must control every month and take the drug as prescribed by a doctor. Ibat it should not be missed he drank or otherwise his health will be very disturbed later.

Actually, Amelia Santono has done another option by visiting many other doctors even abroad to seek second opinion about this disease. But their verdict is the same.

Amelia never told Edward this. In addition to the first time they got the verdict they were having a big fight, Amelia also did it because she did not want to add to the burden of her son's mind.

Singapore-America, Japan, Korea. Call it a country that he says his doctor is great. Everyone issued the same verdict.

When she first heard the verdict, Amelia was drowned. He knew his dream of living to old age and having grandchildren would not be possible if this was the way.

His way of pressuring Edward and by telling him to get married soon his matchmaking even backfired on his own. For him the child felt constrained and regulated when in the little heart of Amelia he just wanted to chase time. Because he wants as much wealth as he can, he cannot buy age. While his age is eroded by disease.

"I'm very ill, Kalula. It's top-secret. I will tell you later. Too soon for you to know now." Amelia Santono looked into the girl's clear eyes.

Huh huh? Seriously ill?

Suddenly Kalula's enthusiasm to see the luxury of this house again just disappeared.

Is Miss Amelia Santono seriously ill?
