Loving Saleha's Bodyguard

Loving Saleha's Bodyguard
Be Normal


An hour and a half passed since Shawn was waiting for his Mama on the ground floor of the parking area, he was getting bored and annoyed. This was why he never wanted to get involved with family affairs wherever they went except the usual dinner they held once a month.


Tracy Byrd's lyrics accompany her.


It was no accident, I found you.


Someone had a hand in it.


Long before we ever knew.


Shawn closed his eyes, imagining each series of events with his new Bodyguard. There was a feeling of annoyance mixed with fear in his heart.


Upset that there was another woman wandering beside him besides Angel Sasmita. He does not want anyone to approach him, let alone interfere in his personal affairs, which is why he prefers to live his own life without family interference. Living alone in his mansion with his four house assistants and two Security, no one dared to ask when he was coming home and with whom he was hanging out.


Tracy Byrd's song is back.


Now I just can't believe you're in my life.


Heaven's smilin' down on me.


As I look at you tonnage.


Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine.


"Until when will I wait in this place? Should I follow inside, or should I leave Mama and ask Ujang to pick her up?" Shawn said in a bored state.


Mama's at the Food Court, can you catch up with Mama? Mama is waiting for you! Fill in Bu Hanum's short message for his jutek son, Shawn Praja Dinata.


"Huh." Shawn breathed a rough sigh after reading his mother's short message. He realized that no child was the boss when it came to his parents. The proof is that today, his mother asked between the youths, he left willingly even though he actually hated being in a crowd.

"Rom, is Raina back?"


Ms. Romlah stopped her ironing activity after hearing her sister's question. Miss Romlah turned her head, she looked at Bu Rahayu who was still standing at the door.


"Yet, Ma'am. Well, Raina called me back, said she'd be a little late."


"Little, what? It's night, Rom. Did the kid buy a self-service till he had to come home late?"


Ms. Romlah shook her head to hear Ms. Rahayu's words. Since the afternoon, Ms. Rahayu kept asking 'Did Raina come home, and what was she doing' to the point that Ms. Romlah ran out of stock to answer her question.


"Aren't you tired of standing in front of the door? I can wait for Raina calmly. After all, it's only been three hours since Raina left. He'll be back soon." Say mom Romlah while folding her iron shirt.


"Mbak is still afraid. Rom. Afraid Raina would come home injured like yesterday. Ma'am should have asked the boy, what is he doing and where? Who are his friends? If you knew all that, you wouldn't be this worried!" Suh Bu Rahayu with her face filled with fear. Mother Romlah walked up to her brother, in his arms her body whispered in his ear 'Bak do not worry, Gusti Allah will take care of those who always do good'


Hearing her sister's words, Ms. Rahayu was much calmer. All the worries that stifled his chest seemed to disappear without leaving any sorrow and sorrow behind.


Did we not stretch out your breasts.


And we have lowered your burden from you.


Which weighs down your back.


And we raise up your name to you.


Then indeed with difficulty there is ease.


Indeed, with difficulty there is ease. (Ash-sharh 1-6)


"Oh Allah, forgive me. The concern of the servant as a Mother has made the servant negligent and forgets the verses of your love." Ms. Rahayu let go of Ms. Romlah's embrace, she tried to smile even though her tears kept dripping down her face.

"Who is that woman?" Shawn frowned, he quickened his footsteps.


"Why Mama so long ago, I still have a lot of work." Shawn swallowed his saliva, surprised by the figure in front of him. Their eyes met again, this was the second time.


"You're coming? Sit down, baby." Ms. Hanum pulled her son's arm and asked him to sit next to Raina.


Shawn tried to control himself, not wanting to be silly in front of employees who managed to make him feel a vibration that he had not felt for a long time.


Tracy Byrd's lyrics echoed in her chest.


Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine


It takes my breath away


Just to look into your eyes


Shawn steals a look at Raina's shady face, trying to find answers there. The answer to his fear. Unfortunately, he found nothing because the face he looked at just kept staring at Mama. And try to take his eyes off her.


"Are you trying to tell my bad to my mom for yelling at you so much?" As usual, Shawn was talking while knocking on the table.


"Master was wrong, I never did anything like that." Raina said firmly. He ventured to look at the beautiful figure sitting next to him.


The cesss!


Raina's chest is back.


"Mama brought him. Mama just wanted to thank him." Said Ms. Hanum defending Raina. He pinched his son's arm until Shawn complained of pain.


"Why does Mama thank him? That has become his job. He made money from his brave actions." Squeak Shawn flat. Ms. Hanum again pinched her son, this time in the abdomen. Bu Hanum glared, making Shawn silent a thousand languages.


"Master is right, Madam. You don't have to thank me. That's my job as a bodyguard." After saying everything she needed, Raina stood up from her seat. Beware and then leave. He stepped his feet away from the mother and the child with a feeling of canpur stir, between happy and disappointed.


It is my duty, I should not be disappointed in his words. Lirih Raina while walking out leaving the Swalayan with all her buying and selling activities.

"Assalamu'alaikum, I'm home." Raina stepped foot into her simple house, she carrying plastic groceries. Hearing Raina's voice, Ms. Rahayu immediately rushed, she ran to the princess who had been waiting for her presence since.


"Mom why, is there a problem?" Raina looked at Bu Rahayu with an astonished look.


"There's nothing wrong, son. I just want to hear your answer directly." Reply Ms. Rahayu with a sharp look.


"Now tell me why you came home wounded."


Raina looked up to hear her mother's words. This was what he feared, there was nothing he could do but prepare to hear his mother's scolding.


"Mom. Actually, my job is very risky. I work as a personal bodyguard for the owner of the Genius Group. There was a small incident at the hotel that's why I got this wound." Show Raina on her face.


"Little incident you say? Quit this job immediately." Cecar Bu Rahayu was upset while leaving Raina who was still standing.


"Mother." Raina tried to chase after Bu Rahayu but was stopped by her Budenya, Ms. Romlah shook her head hinting 'Don't' at Raina. He knew if his brother was angry it would be very difficult to persuade him.


Meanwhile, at his home. Shawn immediately entered the room and lay on his soft bed. He told his housekeeper that no one would disturb his rest.


"Master? The woman called me Sir! But me, I was wrong in front of him. Is my charm less powerful to thrill his soul? What kind of woman is she?" Shawn asked himself.


"Is my speech so painful that it makes the smile that she appears in front of Mama not appear before me?"


"I tried to be normal in front of him, couldn't he feel that? After all, why am I acting normal?What is this feeling?" Shawn again asked himself, a question that would never bring an answer. He fell asleep with feelings he did not yet understand. Her oversized ego made her not realize it was time she forgot the past.
