Marrying the Father of My Foster Son
The Arrival of Uninvited Guests
"Open!" shouted someone while shaking the door tightly. "Lita, open the door if I don't want to break it right now!" The baritone's voice was still loud to make the occupants of the house jump in shock.
"Damn it! Who would dare disturb my nap?" shouted Lita annoyed. Both legs of the girl's level kicked at the blanket that wrapped around the lower part of her body.
"Lita!"
The owner of the name rushed down from the bed and walked up to the door leaf. "Yes, wait a minute." However, the figure in front of the door was getting louder knocking on the door leaf.
Lita opened the door and her eyes widened perfectly when she found two sturdy, tall men with creepy faces looking cynically at her.
"You guys ... w-want what's here?" tanya Lita stuttered. Lita did not expect that the man she had been avoiding for several days was standing firmly before her.
"You want what you said? Of course our arrival here is collecting a debt. Quickly pay before we forcefully pull you out and bring you before Boss!"
"But I don't have the money to pay for it yet. Can you come again next month, I'll definitely pay the installments." Lita pleaded with hope.
Instead of leaking and giving relief to Lita, Poltak actually spit to the right side. "Cute, give you relief? Don't dream, Miss! This is due and you have to pay the installment immediately. Or... Otherwise, we will drag you by force and hand over to our Boss!" the man firmly.
The man's face grew more sinister when the reflection of sunlight hit his right cheek that was injured by a sharp object cut. The wound was sewn along five centi meters until it left a mark there.
Lita shook her head quickly. "No! I don't want to meet your boss."
"Eat him, pay your debt!" snapped Poltak's partner, named Bonar. "Enak wants to borrow, but does not want to pay. Thought the money you took had your Ancestor, heh!"
"Yes, but I don't really have any money right now. My brother hasn't sent me any money so I can't pay you yet. Please give me a week to ask my brother for money." Lita was still trying to negotiate with two of Farida's men, Poltak and Bonar.
Poltak and Bonar looked at each other. Then one of them moved his head and in that second he too the man with the face of the devil was quick to lock Lita's body, pulling the girl's hand on the right and left.
Lita jumped in shock when both of her hands were forcibly pulled by Farida's men, the notoriously ruthless big-time moneylender, curas and do not hesitate to make calculations to customers who are considered lazy to pay debts.
"Hey, let go of my hand! You can't just take me. I told you I'd pay next week. Please, let me go!" scream Lita hysterical. He thrashed, setting foot to and fro as Poltak and Bonar took him by force.
"Please, let go of me! Please, release. Don't take me to your boss!" Lita's eyeballs began to glaze over as she imagined what would happen to her if the two sturdy men managed to bring her to Farida.
"Shut up!" poltak snarled. He clutched Lita's wrist.
The sound of screams, roars and cries of Lita successfully attracted the attention of everyone. The neighbors flocked out of the house and find out what really happened until the atmosphere of the surrounding environment became chaotic.
"Walah, her daughter Bu Mia is very brave yes borrow money to loan sharks. Doesn't he know what the consequences are for dealing with Ms Farida? He could be made into a night butterfly as a debt relief tool." One of Mia's neighbors whispered with the woman next to her.
"really. I thought twice about borrowing it from Ms. Farida. If the kepepet really mending pawns land to pawnshops rather than having to deal with the cold-handed rentennis," said the others. They all whispered without any intention of helping Lita to escape the entanglement of Bonar and Poltak.
"Surge! Watch out, I'm going through." Mia cringed among the crowd of people. The middle-aged woman was forced to get off the motorbike as the road to her house was covered by a crowd.
"Good, Lita! Hey, what did you guys do to my daughter? Release her!" mia's cry was hysterical as she managed to break through the many people watching the rare sight ahead.
However, the two men were sturdy and dressed all in black did not heed Mia's words. They seem to blind and deafen the ears. The eyes stared straight ahead while continuing to pull Lita's hand.
As a mother, of course, Mia did not have the heart to see her baby hurt by anyone. Then, he stood in front of Bonar and Poltak with both hands stretched out to the right and left sides.
"Step over my body first if you want to take Lita, my daughter!" mia's really mean it. Although honestly the woman was quite afraid to face them, but she hid the fear for the sake of her beloved child.
Bonar and Poltak are forced to stop their steps, then both stare cynically at Mia. Then the next second heard a heavy sigh coming from both of them.
Poltak took his hand off Lita's arm. "If you don't want your daughter, we'll take her in front of the Boss, pay your daughter's debt repayment after that I'll just let her go."
Both of Mia's brows furrowed, staring full of question marks. "debt? What debts? Who is in debt?"
Suddenly Poltak and Bonar spouted their laughter into the air. "Of course your son's debt. Didn't you know that your beautiful daughter borrowed money from our Boss?"
Mia turned her gaze towards Lita, but as the two netra were meeting each other, the beautiful girl lowered her face down.
Shaking his head, I could not understand how Lita borrowed money without her knowledge. "How much money did he borrow?" ask Mia briefly.
"Five million rupiah, the total to be paid this month. That includes interest and fines because he was late in paying the installments" said Poltak.
Lita immediately looked up the head when she heard Poltak's answer. "Crazy, not per month I only pay two million installments? But why five million?"
"Shut up! If you don't want this hand to land perfectly on your smooth cheek," Bonar snapped in a high voice.
Lita immediately pursed her lips and returned to bowing her face. He did not dare to open his voice because takit if Bonar's threat really happened.
"I'll pay for it, but please give us about a week. After a week, you can charge it at my house."
Poltak drew a sharp gaze towards Mia. "Can't! Anyway you have to pay now if you don't want your daughter you take her in front of Ms. Farida."
"For the moment we don't really have money. Look, there's not a single sheet of money in here, is there? Then the contents of my ATM also the balance is only fifty thousand, can not withdraw money at all," said Mia while opening her wallet. In the wallet there was no money. Let alone a hundred thousand bills, even two thousand bills do not exist. There are only ID cards, ATMs and health insurance cards.
Again and again Bonar and Poltak heaved a heavy sigh. It is difficult to deal with people like Lita, who easily borrow money, but when asked to pay then there are many reasons to miss.
"Yes, we'll give you a week. Otherwise, don't blame us if your beautiful daughter is sold by Ms. Farida to be a slave to the noses." Poltak snapped a finger, gesturing to Bonar. "Take the girl off!"
Mia rushed over to Lita who was sitting limp on the asphalt of the road. The girl's hair was messy, the remaining crystal strands filled the beautiful face of the princess.
"This is the reason why mom forbids you to borrow money from Ms. Farida. The process is easy, but there are consequences that we take after borrowing money from him." Mia wiped away the remaining tears in the corner of Lita's eyes.
Still in a lowered position, Lita replied, "I'm sorry, Ma. I called and promised I wouldn't do it again." There is regret in every word that is said. "Then, what should we do? Are we going to sell Queensha's mother's house?"
Mia shook her head. "No, the house is our only possession. My mom will sell it at the right time. For now we just need to go to Queensha and ask her for money. It's been almost two months that he hasn't given us any money and it's time for you and mom to meet that damn woman on her index."
