My Hate, the Water of His Eyes (The End of A Taste)
Not my business

Nah!

Leo punctured a plastic cup cover of soursop juice using a straw.

Slurpps...

Syera's esophagus is difficult to swallow his saliva when Leo drinks soursop juice in front of him. Not wanting to peck near the refrigerator, Syera intends to go from there and will return after Leo is finished.

How surprised he was when he turned to the right and saw Leo's hand taped to the side of the refrigerator so that it blocked his path.

Syera turned to her left, the half-opened refrigerator door also blocking her way. So quickly Leo put his arm over the open refrigerator door when Syera would close it.

This is where Syera is standing with her head lowered without moving to face Leo. Thank goodness because the difference in body posture of the two different makes Syera only face the chest of the man without having to see his face.

Syera's thirst grew even greater as her tail glanced at a bottle of soft drink. Without realizing it, Leo followed where the eyes of Syera.

Leo's long hand immediately reached out to what Syera had glimpsed, picked it up and opened the lid instantly.

Glucose... Glucose... Glucose...

So quickly Leo spent a bottle of soft drink glimpsed Syera.

Eeegg...

Leo burped a little even impressed forcing his compounds towards Syera who was still down.

Finished with his affairs in the kitchen Leo passed by without saying anything.

Syera breathes a sigh of relief after Leo's departure. I don't know why her thirst has just disappeared. Not wanting to waste the opportunity and linger again, Syera slowly forced her feet to walk to meet Leo.

He saw that Leo was seriously discussing something with Mila's mother. Despite his doubts, Syera has no choice but to talk to Leo even though she knows only the pain she will get every time Leo says something to her.

"Sorry, excuse me, brother. "

The voice of Sera was so heavy as if it had no power. Leo and Mila's mother's attention was distracted by Syera standing before the two.

"Did you ever give birth to a daughter in this house and call me sister?" Leo looked at his mother with a wry smirk on his face."

"Sorry, sir."

Syera changed her call just like she used to say at the airport.

"Did mama add a waitress to this house?" ask Leo again to his mother.

Mama Mila placed her palm over Leo's shoulder and slowly stroked it.

"Mama rest first we will continue again," said mama Mila left the living room. As usual, Mama Mila did not understand the existence of Syera at all.

..........

"Excuse me, sir. I-I ask for help, please take a few days for Mami Jelita to find another place and move her belongings, "please Syera.

"Do you have the right to talk to me? And again, 'mami Jelita' what was that bar woman who asked you to beg me?" Leo was busy flipping through the documents in his hands.

"I'm sorry, sir, but Jelita's mother doesn't know that the building has long belonged to you" Syera said.

"It's none of my business!"

"But mami Jelita is not..."

"Who do you keep talking to me, huh? Have you forgotten who you are in this house and how lucky I am to listen to you, huh?"

The sound of Leo's cry filled the entire house, the people who were in the house gasped at Leo's voice. No one dared to approach.

"Do you know, every time I see your innocent face then right then and there I will remember that day, the day that because of you my mama cried, my papa died and made me crumpled to pieces. Your existence is destroying the life of this family. Do you understand?"

Leo's voice was so deafening that Syera. He clenched his hands holding back tears from falling in front of Leo.

"Shut up! I have nothing to do with what you call Jelita's mommy and that bar. It is appropriate that I drive out those who are not in their place. I don't think there are bad and dirty people occupying what is mine" said Leo.

Leo saw the watch in his hand and it showed almost eight o'clock in the evening, which means there are about four hours left for the Syera mami to empty the bar.

"There are four hours left, don't blame me if it passes four hours all the items that are still in it become smashed," said Leo showed his watch to Syera.

Leo walked away from Syera who could only be silent and was holding back tears.

"Please, please just this once," pleaded Syera. "I'm leaving this house."

Leo stopped hearing the words of Shera. He laughed in a position still turned his back on Syera.

"Haha... Are you doing your best offer? So you're saying I should do what you're asking in exchange for you leaving this house? Huh.." let out a breath.

Leo turned and the two saw each other.

"It's not like that, you go and leave this house!" ketus Leos.

The phone in Syera's hand rang. He only saw the caller's contact name without any intention of picking it up.

"Sister Fandy" said Syera without a voice calling the caller's name.

Leo smiled a smile following the motion of Syera's lips calling Fandy's name. At that moment he grabbed the phone from his pants pocket and contacted someone.

"Four hours from now. Do as I say."

Leo raised his voice while talking to someone over the phone. Syera who was staring at the screen of her phone now turned to look at Leo who left her with a sentence that was so clear she heard.

..........

"Sir Asep, Syera said yes, maybe Syera is a bit late to go home or maybe not come home tonight."

That is the sentence that Syera said so quickly when leaving the security guard post of the Suntama family home with her motorcycle.

Soon after the departure of the car driven by Leo himself also left the house. He followed where the Syera motorcycle went.

"Shoppers! Do you want to die on the streets, if you want to die, don't die now because it's not time yet. You should feel what my mom and I are feeling," said Leo hitting the steering wheel as many of the riders honking at the sight of Syera hitting the red light.

It usually takes about twenty minutes more to the bar but this time taken by Syera just to spend about fifteen minutes.

"You know what to do" Leo told someone over the phone.

"Good, master!" the man Leo called.

From across the street Leo observed what was going on outside the bar building that was supposed to be operating tonight instead had to pull out the items and apologize to the visitors who arrived.

The man across the street smiled with satisfaction at the sight. The smile did not last long because of the presence of a man who immediately grabbed Syera's shoulder and took her into a car.

"What about something like this you don't want to tell me?"

"Sorry, brother.

Syera can only say sorry to Fandy. When he contacted Syera several times and there was no answer, Fandy immediately contacted Jelita's mother. Plus Mr. Asep who gave it to him if Syera out of the house at night is not as usual.

"Wait a minute and don't get out of the car" Fandy ordered.

Fandy got out of the car and contacted some people he knew had an empty building or warehouse to put Jelita's mama's belongings on for a while.

I don't know why the people Fandy contacted, who were usually so kind and ready to help him seemed to be moving away and no one wanted to give help by sharing excuses.

Fandy massaged his temple and thought of something, his gaze fixed on a sedan car parked across the street with the lights constantly on.

Soon Fandy made another call with his eyes fixed on the car across the road.

"Do you have to go this far?" ask Fandy not to mince words.
