LOVE PAID IN CASH
Quick Out

“Pak Archa.”

Arka looked at Mihika's moist face with puffy eyes and messy hair. “Pak Arka, I'm sorry. I have no intention of lying to Mr. Arka,” Mihika said still sobbing. “I just want to help Dad, but .. Mr. Arka can hate me but don't hate Dad. Dad's gone and I can't make him happy yet.” Mihika slapped her face back on her knees. His crying is getting louder.

Arka is still stuck in her place, there is an emotion in her heart considering all this time she was lied to but seeing Mihika who was hit because of her father's departure makes her look like a mirror when she was left by her parents. Especially at this time the woman is his wife, who yesterday he still adores and touches with the demands of a wife's obligations.

Stepping closer to the bed, Arka sat beside Mihika. “Mihika,” call him. Mihika shook her head.

“Mihika Yodha, my wife,” said Arka made Mihika turn her face to look at Arka. Arka wiped away the tears on Mihika's face, “Your father has calmed down, don't make her grieve from grief. Enough today you cry, the next you have to get stronger.”

“Pak Arka, not angry?”

“Anged? Of course, I would like to be very angry because of your lies. But this is not the time for that. Rest, today will be a long and busy day. Your face is very pale.”

Mihika shook her head. Arka breaks Mihika's body on the bed, and covers her. Allowing Mihika to sleep for even a moment.

...***...

Aditya's residence is increasingly crowded with mourners, even now it is time to bury Aditya's body. The company where Arka and Mihika worked was present. They are curious about Aditya's daughter who has never been seen or shown her face. The family room of the house is deliberately closed, time to reveal Mihika's identity.

“I think yesterday's case will be withdrawn, Mr. Aditya is dead,” whispered Anjay to one of his colleagues.

“But look Arka, he's like a sycophant. Since then with Johan like a close family.”

“Hm.”

Mihika who was asked to see Aditya's face for the last time, hysterically and fell unconscious. Finally, Arka was brought back to the room.

“Let Mihika accompanied by another, we must immediately bury the body,” Johan.

“Then, Mihika is not coming?”

“You saw his condition, who was there he was hysterical again.”

After the funeral, Aditya's residence was not as crowded as before. Johan and Arka still meet the mourners who came. Many ask Mihika Aditya's daughter who did not show her face. As one of the successful business people, of course, this sad news goes into news headlines.

“Let me the bribe,” said Arka grabbed a bowl of porridge for Mihika.

“I don't want to eat, my mouth is bitter,” complained Mihika.

Arka did not answer and gave a sign to Aunt to leave them both. “Eat, you must be strong. Moreover, we still have unfinished business?”

“Pak Arka is still angry with me?”

“Hm. Moreover, seeing you like this, I am even more disappointed. You are selfish Mihika,” said Arka. “All those who are left behind must be sad and disappointed but not have to roar continuously.”

“Pak Arka did not feel what I felt,” bela Mihika,

“Of course I've felt your position. Open your mouth,” Arka's word. Mihika snatched the bowl that Arka was holding.

“I can do it myself.”

Arka made sure Mihika finished her meal, by staring and folding both her hands on her chest.

“Ngapain is waiting for me like a security guard. There were no smiles,” mocked Mihika while pouting.

Arka did not answer and kept looking at Mihika. “Tuh has run out,” said Mihika showed his empty bowl. Then he returned to his body.

“If you still want to get angry mending Pak Arka out. I don't need advice.” Mihika lay on her back to Arka.

“Rest, I must accompany Mr. Johan.”

As Arka came down the stairs, she saw Lela was settling down like a thief. “What are you doing here?”

“Pak Arka ngagetin only. I am curious about Mr. Aditya's daughter,” replied Lela. “Pak Arka himself does what in here, he said only families can enter here.”

“You don't need to know, quickly get out!”
