“WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?” april Jermit
hysterically while hitting the chest of the man, the shower water soaked his body as well
which is only wrapped in an oversize white shirt, over time the curves of his body plagiarized perfectly. The man is not
answering, he lowered his head, his burly hand holding onto both of April's shoulders,
making her freeze and pushing her against the glass wall, April couldn't squint
because April's body was only as high as the man's chest, he leaned in
his face to April's face was getting closer…
The man then pulled the towel from the doorknob
behind April's body, she then walks quickly out of the shower room, taking
his glasses from the front of the mirror washbasin then out of the bathroom. April
about to chase him but the bathroom door closed tight, a sound was heard
the door was locked from the outside. April banged her all her might.
“OPEN….OPEN THE FUCKERS!!!” hysterical screams.
April continued banging on the door with all her might, until she suddenly felt weak
back to attack, his head back dizzy and his stomach hurt. April
squatting on the floor while holding his stomach wrapped around. He feels will
fainting again, when the door was suddenly opened, the man who had taken a bath was now
wearing patterned reinassance pajamas, wearing thick glasses of tangled hair
cover part of his face
“Let's wake” he said slowly, strangely by appearance
strangely, his voice was very soothing. April tried to wake up, but
his sore stomach forced him to stay crouching on the floor.
The man disappeared for a moment and returned
carrying a piece of throw blanket, he wrapped April in that thin blanket
and carry it easily. April can't fight because her head is
dizziness and a sore stomach. The man sat her in the kitchen chair
tender ones. The man then opened the lid of the pizza box on the table and
thrust it forward April
“Eat” he said short, April shook her head slowly,
he was very hungry, but he ate
just gonna make him vomit again..wait a minute, again? Has he vomited
before that? This where? Why can't he remember anything.
“I need medat” said April omitted. That guy
looking over, still with disheveled hair covering part of his face.
“What medicine?”the tananya is short
“Medicine for stomach acid” replied April getting smoother.
The man walked to a shelf at the end of the kitchen, and searched
medicine, he suddenly stopped and walked towards April, carrying her and
take him to the shelf
“There's a thousand gastric drugs in there, you
choose the one you need” whispered. April doesn't know how to behave. It
have many questions, but at this time, the stomach needs to be treated first.
It's right inside a shelf full of expensive vitamins
and drugs of various kinds
“Wow, so complete” April Taps just like that
“Yes, family doctors always stock medicines for
emergency” is obviously the man, herenya he does not look to feel
heavy carrying April on his chest.
April chose one brand of antacids, then the drug
maag from the shelf. After that April was carried back to the dining table, seated
slowly on the soft dining table chair even so because the stomach is still
wrapped around April still sitting with crouching on the chair, then given a glass
warm white water. April took her antacids
It felt strange, gently carried and given medicine
by the person he had just seen, the person who had somehow done what to him
he woke up without his own clothes. Even now besides the
april's stomach doesn't feel anything else on the other side of her body.
Could he have guessed wrong?
“Eat” the man returned to thrusting the pizza,
April again shook her head, Pizza will only make the stomach acid back
ascend
“I need something soft, porridge or sup”kata
April. The man took the phone from the dining table, pulled it
his phone is not even the latest phone
“Pak Tedi where is it?”ask the man
“In the hotel Diamond sir, it was after interracial
home, I returned again to the hotel waiting for Mr. Besar” replied the person in sebrang
connection
“Try Pak Tedi up to the restaurant, ask them to sell
porridge, buy one serving , then please drive home soon ya”pinta
that guy
“Later bill I love Miss Nania?” ask Mr. Tedi
“Don't, Mr. Tedi just pay Mr. Tedi money first,
I'll change at home, immediately Mr. Tedi and let no one know about
ini” the man then disconnects the phone, fills up again the glass April
with warm water then leaning on the dining table. Silent for a moment
“Who are you? where am I?, what am I?”ask
April, now not as firm as before, just shriveled because her stomach is still felt
sore.
“You want nothing?”ask the man, now
trying to get his hair out of his face. April shook her head slowly,
he only remembered that he had an interview at a suspicious place this afternoon
fainted.
The man laughed crisply, his matted hair fixed
obstructing his face
“You are confused, you do not want anything
turns out. You must think I raped you or something?” tanyakene,
April tightened the blanket onto her body, seeing that the man laughed again
“Or something” replied April in fear
“I Shakti, CEO of PT Sigma, your office
applying for jobs. You vomited and fainted in the afternoon during the interview
with me. Your clothes are full of vomit, so replaced with existing clothes
right here. Take it easy, change your clothes
aunt I work with, she came home an hour ago. I was going to
took you to the Hospital, but Andra's back in the office with the driver,
while the family doctor was hanging out with my extended family, so I
ask aunt to keep you at home until I come home”April nods understand,
that answers some of his questions. But after that his common sense came up. It, he,
vomiting and fainting in the middle of an interview at the CEO's house where he applied
work, it's over. Shakti reads the April face change
blanch
“Quiet, you fainted here does not change the value
interview from Andra, I didn't say anything to him” he said soothingly
“Sorry sir, even so I still feel ashamed”
april said while looking down, Shakti chuckled
“We continue the interview after you recover
later yes, now you eat first, Tedi has arrived, just sit here” Shakti
go grab some food and come back with a 5 Star Hotel tote bag in
her hands. He removed a large plastic container from the tote bag,
scoop it into a bowl and then thrust it in April. The money is very
good, April is starving and her stomach has started to improve instantly
take it and enjoy the tastiest seafood porridge he has ever tasted.
Shakti himself took the goblet from the kitchen set and
pull a bottle of wine from the special wine refrigerator next to the 3-door refrigerator. It
read the wine label he took. April smiled at him, Shakti
surely Old Money is well educated, rarely anyone who pays attention
years and places made wine, unless the man is really a wine connoisseur.
Shakti pours the wine, turns it on the goblet, inhales the aroma, then
tasting. Shakti nodded in satisfaction then picked up a slice of New York Style
pizza from dus.
“Why do we interview at my father's house, not at
office sir?” ask April while enjoying the porridge
“Lho, Andra don't tell you?”ask Shakti
taking a tissue, and wiping the corners of her lips, her tangled hair was extremely
disturbing, even as he ate, blocked part of his face.
“Said Mr. Andra, I will be told that I
passed the interview with gap” replied April, Shakti smiled
“I will tell you after the interview,
tomorrow?”April nodded in agreement, the sooner the better, the no longer
there is money to eat.
“Sisa porridge take it home, yes, your clothes are already
washed auntie, hung in the laundry room the door's on the side, later I
anter you go home” said Shakti again. April nodded then thanked.
Last April eating her ulcer medicine, Shakti came back
pour warm water into April's glass. April is feeling better. He tried
straighten his body from a squatting position on the chair and his stomach is no longer
feels pain.
“Kanya I can already go home pak” said last April
trying to sit normally in a chair, even though his stomach still feels pain,
but he can arrest her. April tidied up her blankets and wet shirt to cover up
the top of his knee.
“You sure, as soon as this?”ask Shakti
“Iya sir, besides I'm ashamed to linger at home
tak” said April. Shakti is aware of April's shyness. Then he took April
changed clothes while himself drank a lot of water,
lucky he just drank his wine a mouthful, so it did not feel any effect.
Although her underwear was damp, April forced
wearing his clothes, he just wanted to go home. Hugging the tote containing the CV
and her simple leather bag April waited for Shakti to pick up her car keys.
“Ayo” asked him, Shakti doesn't even change pajamas
reinassance. April followed him from behind.
A black civic sedan parked in the courtyard.
With a house as luxurious and as big as this, April is somewhat surprised Shakti is not driving
a two-door car like a Lamborghini or Ferrari. Shakti opens the door
for April, close it and open the door yourself. April's shocked, the whole time
life never opens a car door for her, let alone a man,
this is even his boss. But it seems that Shakti is a tangled-haired and glasses guy
thick is a gentleman.
After the car starts and the car goes forward, then the door
automatic gate open. April said the address of the hostel was then Shakti
driving there. In front of her boarding house April was stunned, she saw
his stuff is outside. The hostess heard the car
he came out of his room and ruffled his waist
“Mother, this is why my stuff is outside?”ask
April panicked
“I've said many times to you, if you
can't pay the cost until today you have to go out. The room also exists
who rented”ketus Mother kost
“But ma'am, I have to live where, I don't exist yet
money”ucap April desperate
“You have been delinquent 3 April, the room has been
there's something filling too. Pokonya I have not been able to help” Mother boarding and then enter
back to his room.
April
squatting between his stuff put into plastic and dus in
kostan corridor. It's not too much, but still April doesn't know
what to do, and now he has no money.
Shakti watched from afar, he was about to
he set off as April got out of the car, but saw her running in panic
to his boarding house Shakti decided to wait for a moment to notice. Shakti
hearing April's conversation and Mother's boarding, he also understood the reason April fainted
it was noon because April had not eaten anything. Shakti.
for a moment, but seeing April crouching scavenging for Shakti's stuff couldn't bear it, either,
he got out of the car and helped April carry his only 2 dus item
small and a little clothes.
“Lho, Mr Shakti, Mr Shakti is still here?” April
bemused
“Come, where else is your item?”ask Shakti
hauling dus April
“Pak, no sir, already gapapa” said April, he felt
so embarrassed
“You want to work with me right, let's go first, already
malem get in the car there, there's more stuff?”shakti's. April was scared
hearing him, he shook his head and looked around, indeed his stuff was just
that's it, nothing else.
Shakti then takes her to the car, April is asked to sit down
only, while Shakti stuffs things into the trunk
“Where are we sir?”ask April after Shakti goes in
car and install seat belt
“Lang” answer Shakti slowly.
The car goes slow, April and Shakti keep quiet
themselves, indeed from earlier they did not talk much because it was awkward
“Sorry yes I snapped you”, Shakti said
driving, his eyes kept looking straight at the street
“I saw the neighbors of your boarding house have peeked,
you seem confused, so I give you a little shock therapy, sorry”
“Iya sir, sorry yes I so troublesome father, but
where are we going, sir?”tanya April worries
“We go back to my house”shakti replied short
“But sir.”
“At least for tonight. I can't leave
you are on the streets at night, you also will not be able to find a new hostel
gini nights, I also can not let you walk alone bring goods
this much, you also have no money. Don’t get me wrong, we
silence April and make her not think too much.
Upon his return to Shakti's house, April is stationed at
living room is still roomy with kitchen, there is a large sofa that is comfortable
with a carpet and a big TV there, just 3 steps from the big kitchen.
April sat on the floor limp, energy
from the bowl of porridge he had eaten it seemed to have run out.
“I want to taste the pizza, here I warm
porridge kamu” Shakti said. April gives a 5-star hotel tote containing a rented container
large porridge to warm. Shakti put it in the microwave. Moments
get out of April's car and Shakti gets into an argument over who's sleeping where,
eventually Shakti does not give up, he stays asleep in the room and April sleeps in the
living rooms. Shakti took some pillows, duvets and sheets for April.
April insists on arranging her own sofa without Shakti's help, Shakti again
succumbing, he chose to serve porridge and pizza on the table in the living room, he said,
instead of at the dinner table
“You want wine?”Shakti offers, April refuses
smooth, besides he was reluctant, his head still felt dizzy
“Warm water only pak” he said slowly, Shakti finally
bring him a glass of warm water, and he breaks down the wine, instead of him
bring a can of soda from the refrigerator. The two of them sat on the ground floor
carpet, and continue the dinner while chatting
“Sorry sir, I'm so troublesome, I promise I will
search kostan tomorrow” said April while scooping the warm seafood porridge
“Just relax, anyways if you want to go tomorrow
no money yet, you haven't I contracted as well as secretary”, ah yes April
kan hasn't been accepted as Shakti's secretary, this is how
“You must be wondering yes, why at home
this big bedroom there is only one?”guess Shakti when you see April
pondering, April was at a loss to answer what because that was not what she was thinking
“It was this house there were 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms,
from the kitchen there to here is the dining room, but I changed 3 rooms and
the bathroom in front became a library and a workspace, then the 2 rooms and bathroom upstairs became a warehouse
painting, you must have seen the painting when you came in here, right?” continued
“Yes, I recognize Barli's painting and I do too
interview Mr. Andra in the workspace Mr.” Shakti amazed to hear April
recognize the painter who painted his painting.
“Bapak does live alone here?”ask April,
he scoops again the seafood porridge because he still feels hungry.
“Yes, I bought this house when I got the bonus
because it succeeded in IPOing the main PT, when my brothers bought a car from
their bonus money, I admonished the homeowner and asked him to sell
house me. I bought this from my own sweat, so my family
there is no control whatsoever over this house” Shakti stared at April who saw it
amazed
“Sorry yes, I am not arrogant, but I am proud of
myself at that time” said with a smile, April smiled
saw it. Of course Shakti is one of those people who has
privilege because it was born in a family to be, but heard it proud of
his achievement of owning a home makes April feel like she is also an ordinary human being
it seems
“I deliberately left only one room for myself
alone, in this house there was not even a living room, so there was never one
come home”continue Shakti, he took the second piece of his pizza
“So father told me about aunty”
“Ah yes, it's aunt who comes in during the day, she
help cook, sometimes wash but usually I do it myself, or
mopping up dust, often the auntie came to take a nap in the park in front of”
the story then chuckles, making April laugh
“I'm used to doing everything myself, there are robots
vacuum, washing machine live pens, dishwasher stay pencet”Shakti open
the soda can then drink it
“Anyway toilet is near the workspace, but for
bath and shower, we have to share in my room, we will find a way”
lightly then take the third slice of pizza
“Makasi ya sir, would like to meet me here” April
he nodded his empty bowl
“No problem” Shakti then scoop again porridge to
april's bowl, asking her to continue eating
“By the way auntie, I have to cancel her entry
tomorrow as long as you're here” Shakti then pick up his phone and type
messaging
“Why pack?”April wonder, though,
“Keluargaku tuh..”Shakti paused his words for a moment
considering whether or not he would tell the story in April, he looked into April's eyes
and a second later decided to tell a story,
Shakti takes a comfortable position on the carpet,
take a pillow over the sofa and lean against the leg of the sofa with a pillow on
his back
“The reason why you I interviewed here is not in
office is because of my family, and my ex-boyfriend who is now
director of PT. Sigma. Since I IPO the main PT and develop
company, they don't let me move freely. My father and my brothers
afraid I'm taking over the company. They didn't believe me when I said I was
just want the company to grow, because I think I'm all that I'm working on,
the profits and the others will go back to the family too right, but they
thought I had a hidden agenda behind my plans” Shakti paused for a while and took a sip of his soda
“My wiggle room is narrowed, despite share sharing
not changed, but I just shared a small project. All my ideas
taken over by my brothers, my schedule was full of visiting one art
exhibition to other art exhibition, domestic and foreign. At first I enjoyed it,
then I realized they were suppressing my existence in the company”Shakti grabbed again
slice of pizza
“Before moving here, me and my brothers
each of them was given a house and apartment by my father, but we were really
dictated by father. Which companies can we set up, what steps can we
we can take for the company, we have to eat with whom, get in touch
with whom, with whom. Moreover, my father was very suspicious I would
taking over his power, he became extra careful with me, my brothers
happy with the vehicles, the rarer the more expensive the faster they are
I love it, I am happy with freedom. So I chose to leave
influence my family and choose to be hated by them, but with me out
their house feels safer, they think I'll be easier
kept”
“But apparently not, I can still develop
the companies, expansions, and subsidiaries that I take care of all thrive with
good”
“But I think it's strange sir, isn't it if the company is growing it means good, profit
increased, increased profits?”april asked strangely, this Shakti family really
freaky
“They are happy with the profit, the expansion, the,
but he was afraid of me and my ideas they couldn't guess, I was unruly, I was unruly,
hence they chose to dwarf my scope, they were afraid of me
take away their wealth and power Shakti replied
“But you didn't intend that right?”
“Unfortunately, whatever I say does not make
they believe that I didn't do it to take their throne”
shakti's face looked sad
“Then came this woman, my ex-boyfriend Nania
the one who used me to be the director of the company, I'm not stupid
seeing that I was being used. Nania sees an opportunity to get
that post after knowing my family was trying to get rid of me. Nania and Sister
keduaku Juna made a deal, if he became a director at PT. Sigma, Nania
it will make my schedule very busy to visit art exhibitions throughout
the world, and at that time stupid me..”.
“Enjoying it..Father too well kanya pak” April.
finishing Shakti's words, Shakti chuckled
“Iya kanya” Shakti agrees
“In the office I can't laugh like this, when
I looked happy they were definitely going to do something, so I went to
office with a gloomy and depressed face, yaaaa although it is easy
I did it because I was depressed there not free at all. Nania
completely take over all operations. The secretary chosen by him
will report my movements as small as possible. And all the Department heads too
employees, very scared and submissive to Nania. I can't check the report, though,
creating a plan, checking operations without being complicated by Nania”
“Then I thought about what I made my house into
just an office, I can work remotely, develop a company or even
make a new PT if again my scope is narrowed, anyway if here it is not
there is one that can disturb or sabotage”April nods constantly
listened
"Auntie, and Mr. Tedi is the man of choice
my family, so if I'm willing to call you home, it could be dangerous, you
sabotageable. Andra also told auntie, interview at home because
my schedule is tight, and I have to go to family events in the afternoon. I came home early
from the event, with the reason there is another event, they are happy to be able to talk about
akau. Fortunately, after driving me home, Tedi returned to the hotel waiting
dad's next order, so I can taste the porridge you eat this” Shakti
sniff on the seafood porridge that April is enjoying
“Andra agreed to help me, but not in the neighborhood
office, I happened to go to school with him in high school, he was the only one I could get
trust in the office, even then he was forced to not be able to openly help me, he said,
Nania fired everyone who supported me, even though Andra was very loyal, I
still need him to look loyal to Nania as well”
“So rich double agent yes sir?” Shakti nodded
assented
“It would be if you were here, Nania or my family
can't affect you” Shakti said, now April finally understood completely,
the reason he interviewed at Shakti's house, and his family background. Turns out
a rich family with all its privileges the problem is more complicated than
family in general.
“I cheated my ex boyfriend and best friend” April
suddenly telling a story without being asked, he felt he had to tell
it was Shakti who helped him. Shakti is not necessary
any explanation of what happened in April's life to be like
here, he listened carefully.
"I work as a secretary in an office
based on banking, 3 years I started my career from admin to become
secretary, get a manager's girlfriend, and my best friend at that time his position
as a brand development manager. In short, they both turned out to be dating in
behind me, when I found out they were preparing for the wedding. Money
what they used to marry turned out to be from the company's funds
pal darken. I found out and reported it to the company. However
conditions turned around, they made it look as if I was the one doing it
embezzlement, they faked signatures, and my data is of course
my boyfriend and I know. I lost in front of the police, the company asked me
to return all the money he said I embezzled, or I'm in jail 8
the year. Motors, electronic devices, bags, branded clothes to hair dyes
everything I sold. This is all I have pak” April pointed to dus containing the book,
documents, knickknacks, and one
it contains plates and plastic cups, which are visible from the restaurant inter-book, as well
a swipe of clothes.
“Moon-months I'm looking for a job, apparently
my bad status spread in the offices where I applied, despite trying
mengirit only ate once every two days, but my money finally completely ran out
a few days ago, I only had a bottle of mineral water, that's what I asked for
from gallon mom kost”kata April while
she wanted to cry, but her head felt very dizzy
“I'm guessing Mr. Andra didn't call my office HR
previously for background checking, so I was called interview” said
April
“Andra always does background check the most
finally, so as not to interfere with his judgment. And according to him, you're a candidate
best that he interviewed so far” explained Shakti.
“Sgratitude” says April
“Keep, your ex-boyfriend and best friend have news
again?”
“Entah sir, I can't fight back, revenge too
I can't, I don't have any family to accommodate, my parents have
died, I do not know the family of father or mother so yes, this is”April
trying smiling. Shakti was smiling too
“You strong woman Pril.
my secretary ya”Shakti then thrust her hand which was welcomed by April,
then they shake hands.
“Thanks pak” says April sincere.
“Now you rest, tomorrow we take care
your documents” pinta Shakti.
They then cleaned up the food, Shakti then
let April feel comfortable. After Shakti goes into the room, April
change his clothes with his large loose sweatshirt he used to wear to
sleep, turn off some lights, sneak under warm duvets and sofas
the soft one and then the sleeping one.
