The Love of Luke

The Love of Luke
Scolded Cecil


I let go of her embrace and grasped both arms of Ida bi firmly, I tried to convince her that I was fine and did not forget to ask her whereabouts of father.


"Bi..calm I'm fine, already don't talk about this problem anymore" I told him.


Bi Ida replied with just a nod and she immediately wiped her tears that had fallen, then bi Ida went to take a compress filled with ice cubes in it and then began compressing my cheeks with the ice, she treated me gently and I was so grateful to have her by my side.


"By the way, where's dad? And why did Miss Sava tell me to move rooms?" I asked bi Ida.


He seemed to be silently bowing and exhaling heavily before answering my question, until when I looked at him raising my eyebrows, Ida finally started talking to me.


"Mr Wheeler went overseas for his non business trip, and before he left, Mr. Wheeler had already moved all of the lady's belongings to the upper room right next to Ms. Cecil's room, aunty knows Mr. Wheeler loves the lady as much as he loves Miss Cecil, but Miss Sava will definitely not make the lady live life quietly because of Mr. Wheeler's better treatment to the lady than before" said bi Ida explained.


I understand now why Mom and Cecil were so nice to me this morning, and they were like that just because there was a father there, and I just forcefully smiled holding all the vexation and emotion in my heart.


It's not that I can't be angry or fight, but if I do that I'm sure bi Ida will also be affected and I don't want it to happen, so I can just give up on all of this.


*****


In the new room I felt very comfortable to see all the stuff there neatly arranged with a table and a large dressing glass, a soft bed and a soft blanket also thick, thick, it's the first time I've felt like a lady in the real Wheeler family, how it wasn't until I was seventeen that I just slept in the waiter's room and always did everything the waiter did, she said, even now, I still have to do that.


But at least I can sleep well and not feel sultry when it rains, and not feel cold when night falls, I can also feel at home lingering in the room if the room is that wide.


I walked into my wardrobe and picked up a stick belonging to my blind prince as a child, every time I feel sad and lonely I just need to hold that stick and I will immediately feel calm and comfortable.


"Hmmm...When will you come back and take me away from this house? When are you gonna keep your promise to marry me?" My gertutuku while hugging the stick.


Suddenly there was a very loud knock on the door and Cecil's shout boomed from behind the door, I immediately put the stick in the closet and covered it with my clothes, then immediately opened the door for Cecil.


"Vivian...." Shouted Cecil,


"I.iya Cecil what's going on?" I'm nervous.


I don't know why he suddenly met me and got angry like that, when I asked Cecil immediately grabbed my hair hard and he dragged me out of the room and down the stairs and just let go of the snout when we were already downstairs.


"B.aaa.ahhh...Cecil let this hurt, Cecil what are you doing let me go" I shouted trying to get Cecil's hand out of my hair.


When I got to the bottom, Cecil immediately pushed me until I fell down and he kept yelling at me for no apparent reason.


"You're shameless, you want to humiliate me at school huh!" It's very hard, though,


"Little what you mean, I don't understand what you're saying at all" I replied to him,


"Don't pretend to be innocent and don't know, you're the smartest student in class in just one day no, the teacher keeps praising you all the way to university and he says you're better than me, even the teacher told me to learn from you, do you think you're as good as it can beat me, huh!" Impact again.


"Little you should ask the teacher instead of being angry with me, I'll just do what the teacher told me to do at school" I said in self-defense.


"Plakkk....You dare to fight me when you are angry? Basic pickle boy does not know himself, I warn you if you try to get the attention of the teacher again at school, I will not hesitate to make your beloved servant suffer!" Snapped Cecil threatening me.


He stepped on my finger with his high shoes so strong, that I felt an excruciating pain.


"Aaaaaa......" My ringis is in pain,


"Feel that!" Cecil said and left me.


Although my left hand hurt, but in my heart it hurt a lot more, and I kept trying not to cry, although Aunt Ida came to me and she took me straight to the room and treated the wound on my hand because it was stepped on by Cecil, I could not cry in front of her and even Ida who cried over my hand.


"Hiks..hiks...nona Vivian why don't you push her too, why don't you be careful like this?" Said Ida crying while dressing the wound on my hand,


"Don't happen, we fight or defend ourselves everything will remain the same, this is my destiny and I can't do anything, if only I could meet my two biological parents, maybe I won't suffer like this" I replied while remembering my fate.


Until Ida finished dressing my wounds, I couldn't stay in the room to rest either, mother came and told me to go shopping for fruits, and she just gave me one piece of money.


"Vivian what are you doing relaxing in the room, this is quickly go out and buy a lot of fruits" said Madam Sava while thrusting her money in front of my face, I immediately took the money with an annoyed feeling.


"But Ma'am, this money won't be enough to buy a lot of fruits. Maybe this will be enough to buy just one kind of fruit" I replied to him.


"Buy whatever is enough with the money, quickly I am hungry and want to eat fresh fruit" he said.


I nodded and immediately left from there, as well as bi Ida who returned to the kitchen to continue her work. I was confused to just bring a piece of fifty thousand rupiah and mother wants fresh fruit is also good, while in a city like this, the mother wants fresh fruit, there could be no store selling good fruits at such a low price.


Not to mention that I had to go far enough to get to the nearest supermarket, because the Wheeler family residence was inside the family's land assets which was quite far from the highway as well as other wargi settlements, I had to walk long enough and search for the nearest supermarket off the highway.


When I was in the supermarket, my guess was that there was no fruit at fifty thousand, and I was confused how else to find fruit at a cheap price.


"If I go home empty-handed, I'll definitely scold me more, oh god what should I do" I grumbled in confusion.


I came out of the supermarket lethargic and accidentally saw an open tub car selling fruits at low prices, certainly much cheaper than the fruits in the supermarket.


I went straight to the seller and immediately bought some red apples from there, I went home happy and immediately stood on the edge of the zebra cross to wait for the lights to turn red.


"Mother won't know that this is cheap fruit, after all she will also definitely tell me to peel it, as long as she doesn't know I'll be safe hehe" I muttered feeling calmer.


I quickly crossed the street with many others and hugged the fruit tightly until I got home, I immediately peeled the fruit and presented it to the mother who was sitting on the front sofa while watching tv with Cecil.
