Happy reading.....

“.......”
“Then I will introduce you guys with Pomegranate (Then I will introduce you guys with Pomegranate )”
“De-five?”
“The Rose of this place (Rose of this place )”
The Boss of the Casino gives an idea of a person, whose words describe that person, whose name is Pomegranate and most likely a woman, is a prima donna in the Pub.
“A very captivating lady, that probably can make you think to make her yours (A very charming woman, who might just make you think to make it yours )”
“Hemmm..” The son cleared his throat while muttering softly.
“A Local lady, but her beauty, cannot be compare with all of beautiful women here.”
“(Local women, but her beauty, can not be compared with all beautiful women here )...”.
The boss of the Casino glorified the woman he said was named Pomegranate.
The son pulled one corner of his lips.
If you hear the description of a woman named Pomegranate from what was described by the Boss of the Casino, it feels like the woman named Pomegranate is so indeed very beautiful and charming.
After all, expatriate men like this Son and his brother, do have their own judgments about beautiful women. Remembering also, when they were still in England, what they saw were women who came from rich families, even had noble bloodlines.
Already imagined how well groomed his woman – the woman. Pun, women – women who can be said to be comfort women, are women – women of choice who are devoted to serving men of wealth and rank and have a high social status.
And indeed who had been wara – wiri around Putra and his brothers, – average is European women. And the Casino Boss who is indeed a European man, certainly has a high taste also about women, he said,
seeing how perlente she was, and the woman accompanying the Boss of this Casino also looked different from the other comfort women.
So, if this Casino Boss were to praise that woman named Pomegranate so much, it must have had an incredible appeal.
But the Son was not interested at all.
“Well, from how you face and the way you describe how beautiful this woman, I believe she’s that beautiful and charming. But as I said, I don’t like a woman .”
“(From how your face and how you describe how stunning this woman is, I believe she is as beautiful and charming as that. But as I told you... )”
“You don’t like the ‘touched’ woman ... (You don't like women who are already ‘touched’... )” Sambar the Casino Boss while smiling.
The son also smiled.
“Delima is not an escort lady. She’s a singer (Pomegranate is not a comfort woman. She's a singer )”
“Hemmm..”
“So the ladies singer here are also giving another ‘pleasure’ than watch and hear them singing?.. (So female singers here can also give ‘pleasure’ other than seeing and hearing them sing? ) ...”
It was Garret who grabbed with her face that looked sparkling, though, because it happened that he was also curious about the female singer, one of which he had seen and was interesting enough for Garret to try to invite ‘berwar’ on the bed.
“Not all of them. They have four ladies singer here, but two of them, you may say that they kind of difficult to ‘persuade’. Or maybe they have their own ‘taste’? to accept men who want to spend ‘more time’ with them? ( No
all of them. They have four female singers here, two of them, say it's hard to ‘persuade’ them. Or maybe they have their own ‘selera’? To receive – male men who want to spend ‘time over’ with them? )”
The Casino Boss shrugged and slightly opened his hand, then chuckled slightly.
“Makes me feel challenged to try ( Makes me feel challenged to try )” Celtap Garret.
“Hem, but not this time! (But not now! )”
Addison immediately snatched while glancing at Garret who smiled widely later.
“Not to try to woo a singer, not even to do what your dirty brain planning right now! (Not to seduce a singer, nor to do what your filthy brain is planning to do right now! )” Sambar Addison again, seraya
glancing at the woman who was struggling spoiled at Garret.
“Oh come on Ad .... ( Come on Ad .. )”
“Ad was right. you can do it later with Dami. But not tonnight”
“(Ad correct .. You can do it later with Dami. But not tonight )”
The son chimed in Addison's words while casting a glare that Garret understood his point.
“Alright, Alright ..”
Garret also confirmed the Son's words.
After all, at this time, Garret knows for sure their arrival is just to do a business meeting.
Not as relaxed as every week if they invite Anthony to the Capital.
“Well, sees that we have to go now.. (Alright, it also seems we should say goodbye now .. )”
The son is leaving.
“That fast?.. (So fast?.. )”
“Hemm ..”
The son who had stood up from his seat was a beard.
“Well, for at least let me introduce you with Pomegranate, then you can decide if everything I describe about Pomegranate is right”
“(Well, at least let me introduce you to Pomegranate, and you can judge if everything I describe about Pomegranate is true )”
“Next time maybe .. (Next time .. )”
Again, the Son refused subtly.
“Won’t be long (It won't take long).”
The Boss of the Casino called a male servant and whispered to him.
“Delima is sweet and nice, also smart. So when you came here again, you can ask her to achieve you for a chit-chatted .. (The pomegranate is sweet and kind, it's smart too. So if you come here again, you can ask him to
just accompany you chat ).”
The Boss of the Casino spoke to Son again after he whispered to a male servant and the waiter then passed downstairs.
**
A few minutes off...
The male servant who had left after the Casino Boss whispered to him had now returned to the place where Putra was and was now standing smoking while waiting for a woman to be introduced by the Boss of the Casino.
“How? ... today Pomegranate comes?” Ask the Boss of the Casino who looks fluent also speaks Indonesian to the waiter he just told it.
“Come Tuan” Reply the waiter. “But Mba Pomegranate can't approach Mister now, as he will be performing after Mba Connie and Mba Pomegranate are preparing in the dressing room at the moment. So Pomegranate Mba apologizes to see Mister after he appears later ..”
“Hm, so yes?.”
The Boss of the Casino was a mangosteen – mangosteen.
“She has to perform (She has to perform )” Sahut Putra. “Right? (Are you right? )” Connect Son.
“So, you understand Language? (So, do you understand Language?)” Ask the Casino Boss with a smile on the Son.
The son also smiled. “I understand and I think I can also speak Indonesian well” Putra said later.
“Wow!” The Boss of the Casino seemed amazed because the eloquence of the Son was also quite clear when speaking the domestic language of these Inlanders.
“Alright, if so, we excuse you now .”
The son reached out his hand to shake his farewell to the Boss of the Casino and then said goodbye to Dalu, who was carrying a wooden stick to help him walk because his legs were a little limp.
The Boss of the Casino also bearded while receiving a helping hand of the Son, then Addison, Garret and Arthur.
And after that, the Son, with three men who were with him, including two personal guards who were taking part, rushed to get out of the Pub.

🎵
How Sad and Wounded My Heart .. S’lama It Cares My Pain ..
Although, Now I'm Going, Far ..
🎵
The son glimpsed his face towards Pub as the sweet voice of a woman bounced from within.
‘It looks like it's the same female singer who also sang when we first came here’
Son ingrained. Want to negate the face of the female singer whose voice is very melodious. Yang Putra can recognize his voice, because from the beginning of hearing, it feels like Putra likes the voice of a female singer who sang a song with a relaxed melody in Indonesian.
“We’ll comeback to Villa tomorrow morning right? (We're back at the Villa tomorrow morning, right? )” Garret's voice makes Putra turn her face away from the inside of Pub.
“Yes we are ( Yes )”
“Alright ( Yes already )”
“Please, (Please )”
Arthur allows Son to get into the car first.
But the son shook for a moment. “You guys comeback first .. (You two go back first.. )”
The son said to Garret and Addison.
“I have one thing to do, (There is one thing I want to do first )”
**
“You wait here (You just wait here ), Arthur.”
The son said to Arthur who accompanied him and one of their men who became a driver.
The other two drove Garret and Addison to their residence in the capital.
“Okay”
Arthur nodded and the son got out of the car.
Arthur did not ask the interests of the Son who asked to be delivered to a place that looked like a settlement of ordinary people.
Although there are also several large houses around the area. But still Arthur wondered for himself in his heart, about what made the Son ask to be delivered to a place that seemed quite dense
that resident.
Moreover, the Son is seen entering a small street ahead there. “Should we not accompany Mr Son only, Mr Artur?” Said the man who was the driver at the moment. “I'm worried this area is dangerous ..”
“You remember what he did two days ago to someone named Baskoro?”
“Still Sir. There is no way I forgot” Sahut the personal bodyguard who doubles as a driver at this time.
“So you should understand by now, that Mr. Son is able to keep himself much more powerful than you and I”
“Oh yes also Sir!” The man who was the driver was a crybaby.
“This place I feel safe from crime, even if there are, criminals here are not a match for Mr. Putra”
Arthur then said to his men again.
‘I just wonder, what is he doing here? (I'm just wondering, what is he doing here? )’
Arthur sat down later, as his mind guessed about the affairs of the Son came to such an ordinary settlement, while also waiting for the Son to reappear.

Meanwhile, Putra went down the road that the lighting was dim until he arrived in front of a whitewashed house with a fence that had faded the color of his paint and peeling in some parts.
The son had been wailing to see the quiet and quiet surroundings, but then turned again to the house that was in front of him.
‘Maybe he's asleep huh?’
The son sat down, while standing in front of the fence attached to the padlock.
‘Haish Son! The girl must have slept! What time is this? Stupido!’
The son cursed in the heart.
'But I really miss him’
The son breathed. His heart was eager to knock on the fence, so that the Girl would come out of her house and the Son could see her for a moment.
Although actually in the morning the Son can also stop by the Hospital where the Girl works because it is close to his residence as well.
But the Son can't wait for morning to come to meet the Girl. And incidentally the house of the Girl is quite close to the Pub that was the Son sambangi. So yes, all through.
Although it was felt so late, but Putra hoped, who knows he was lucky to meet the Girl tonight. And who knows Girls want to be persuaded to stay at the Son's house which is close to the Hospital where Girls work.
The son frowned once again. Looking at the left right side of the house next to the house of the girl.
‘But why the house Girl is dark once huh?’ Inner Son. ‘Does he have no money to pay the electricity bill?’
There is a little worry in the heart of the Son.
‘But.’ There is one thing that flashes in the brain of the Son. ‘It is also impossible if the house is dark like this and that is because Girl is not at home at the moment is not it?’
The daydream of the Son was scattered when his ears caught the sound of a person's footsteps from the direction of the small street where he entered.
Until Putra turned his head and caught a figure that has not been clearly seen his face due to dim lighting, but it feels like the Son recognizes the stature of the person.
