"Thank God, it's finally time to get home from work" Anna said.
Anna's condition still hasn't shown any change, her head is still dizzy. Not to mention his body was very hot, even though he had taken the medicine given by Mrs. Melly.
"I can't go home by myself, should I just take a taxi? But unfortunately the money, the cost of a taxi from here to the boarding house must be more expensive than taking a bus" Anna murmured.
After she bids farewell to the other workers, Anna decides to take the bus. He had to save money in order to survive until he got a salary next month, the scholarship money he received was only enough to finance the basic tuition. Not with living expenses and other personal needs.
Anna was walking unsteadily, her eyes were like twitching. Maybe if other people who see Anna at this time are not much different from the behavior of people who are drunk, it is feared by Anna. However he was still in the area close to the bar and motel that were close to each other, it was clear there would be many striped men wandering around the places.
"Hi, pretty. Alone, would you mind me?" The drunk man's voice approached Anna.
Although the girl is in a subconscious state, Anna's instincts say that she is in danger if she does not leave the place immediately.
"Beautiful, how come it's just? Mute huh? Bro, he's mute Bro" said one of the men.
"Well, if mute is more cozy Bro. Good thing we are, hahaha...."
The two men had even dared to poke Anna's arms and chin, although Anna brushed both hands precisely what Anna did instead made the two men increasingly aggressively teasing Anna.
"Go you! Before I call the police!" hardik Anna's.
"Yeah! It's scary! Ahaha!" Instead of leaving, the two men even more excited to tease Anna.
Perhaps the second thought was that tonight they had found a soft meal, so there was no way they would just let go.
"Go!"
"Please!"
"Please!"
Anna tried to shout for help to the people who passed by around her, but it was a pity that Anna's efforts were in vain. Most of the passersby who witnessed Anna and the two men who were bothering her just passed by without even bothering to cross the slightest helping Anna.
"Just ask for help, my dear, there will be no one here to help you. No need to sell expensive," said the man who is thick-bodied.
"Truly, mending you serve us only. That way you'll make more profit, won't you Bro?" asked the thin man dry like a broomstick.
"That's you!"
BUGH!
BUGH!
With her remaining strength, Anna kicked the bottom of the two men's bellies.
"****** ! You insolent! Arrgh!" yell at the stock.
Anna was running at full speed, sometimes she almost fell but Anna tried not to fall in the place. The few people who saw Anna, only frowned.
Anna's gaze grew increasingly blurred, although Anna was sure the two men had not chased her anymore. Anna did not reduce her running speed. Anna's footsteps narrowed as she could not see clearly.
"Are you okay, son?" Vaguely Anna heard someone's voice.
"Yeah! Go ye! Don't bother me!" Anna brushed off the arm of the person trying to touch her. His consciousness was still not mastered, just a reflex due to the events that had befallen him just a moment ago.
"Look, I didn't mean anything bad. Drink first so that you calm down" said the person.
Anna who had mastered her consciousness was finally able to see clearly, the person who had invited her to speak was a middle-aged woman. The look on her face was worried, reminding Anna of her mother in her hometown.
"What happened to me?" anna asked confusedly. As he remembered he was running away from the two striped-nose men who were bothering him.
"So when I went down this road, you were already lying here. Then I tried to help you, you have a high fever. What are you doing here, son?" ask the woman.
Anna hesitates to tell him what happened, until he decides to keep it.
"I'm out of work, Mrs."
"Oh my God, maybe you don't realize you're sick? Where is your home? Want me to drop off?" ask the woman again.
"It's not necessary, Mrs. Thank you for your good intentions, but I can go home by myself" Anna replied.
Anna was unwilling to accept the middle-aged woman's offer so easily, she did not know if it was true that the woman had no ill intentions with her? Remembering what the people were doing when she was being abused by the two striped-nose men earlier. They just looked and went back on their way.
"Ah, sorry. Maybe you don't believe me, but I really just want to help. If you are in doubt and do not allow me to stop the taxi so that you can go home safely," said the woman.
The girl being spoken to was just silent, she didn't know what to respond to. Because indeed the state of himself is also not possible to refuse the helping hand of others.
"Thank you, Mrs. Then let me just take a cab." After some time of thinking, Anna finally decided to take a second choice.
"Thank God, you wait here first, son."
The woman sat Anna in a chair at a bus stop not far from where she collapsed. The woman had returned in a taxi, after helping Anna enter the taxi, the middle-aged woman told the taxi driver to deliver Anna safely.
"Thank you very much for all your help, Mrs," Anna said.
"Yes together, may you get well soon, son."
The taxi that Anna was riding in moved towards Anna's boarding address, the taxi driver said that the taxi fee had been paid by the woman. A fortune that Anna will never forget in her life, despite not knowing each other, but Anna is grateful there are still good people. Taxis continue to dart through the busy American night streets by passing vehicles. Interlocking speeds. Very different from the village atmosphere.
Anna got to the front of the boarding house, she walked gontai towards her boarding room. His gaze was unreliable, the color of the room door was almost the same making him not confirm correctly the room he entered. After opening the door of the room he collapsed again, the fever he was experiencing was getting worse. Anna fainted for some time, until the voices outside the room managed to wake Anna from her stupor.
