The Revenge of a Bad Girl
Trying to Love is a Wound

Days change. A lot of things happened. The various wounds and sorrows mixed together to make an Iraz unable to show his sweet smile. Only a glum look was always depicted there.

This morning Iraz was getting ready to go to the office. He's cool under his black suit.

"Stevan!" vey's head poked out from behind the door.

The man looked. Not saying but ready to hear what her brother was about to say.

"Come down for breakfast..."

Again there is no truth. The man was still busy in his hair suit.

"Van, you heard me, right?"

"Hmmm." she finally opened her mouth.

"Yes, I went down first, yeah," said Vey closing the door. He walked down the stairs.

The man stared silently at the reflection of his face in front of the mirror. Perfect. Nothing less there. It's the face everyone wants. But. but something was missing. Her warm spirit and smile were never seen again. Maybe since he first set foot in that big house.

"Raz, you should be able to solve all this. Let's start the life that Papa wants. You should be able to!" Iraz clenched his hands, staring at his face which was filled with an expression of heartache.

"Because you exist to feel pain."

"Good morning, Kiking..." Zizi greeted the man who had just come down from the top floor.

The man wore a flat expression without any intention of answering. He was like a living corpse that walked without ever speaking. At best, talking is only potluck. Hmm, oh, yes, ok, y, g and others.

From the beginning Iraz did belong to the category of cold man. At least he used to smile a lot. Also friendly to the ponakan. At least every day he will be willing to carry one of his ponangkannya. Inviting him to play even takes him for a walk. However after returning to what it was now, he turned one hundred and eighty degrees. Same face but not the same personality.

"Stevan, you have breakfast first." said Vey welcoming his sister.

Stevan silent. He stared at the breakfast on the table. It makes no sense to him. For a long time he did not like the classy breakfast that is available now. The variety of food that is served looks boring to him.

The man passed the dining table. Walk towards the kitchen. I don't know what he wants to do. The weirdness was enough to confuse them. So let the man do whatever he wants without being interfered with. It seems that's what he wants.

"He's why, honey?" ask Axel, Vey's husband.

"No idea. I think it's shock because of all these circumstances." Vey replied indifferently.

"I think he's because of someone."

"You mean?" Vey stopped her mouth chewing, curious about her husband's intentions.

"Well, she had a boyfriend there. It's possible that he lost that person because he's about to have an impromptu wedding" Axel explained.

"No way, honey! Stevan can't possibly fall in love with anyone. If he loves someone, he may go through all day. Stevan is not a guy to be liked. Especially likes. I think it's because of another problem,"

"Yes. But what?" Axel looked at his wife's face.

"Maybe he was hit hard by the news that Papa was in a hurry with all his illnesses. Or because he was never friendly there. There's a lot of possibilities, honey..."

"Well, we know that."

Ten minutes passed, Iraz reappeared with the instant cup noodles in his hand. He joined his family at the dinner table.

"Instant noodles again?" Vey shines a spotlight on his sister.

Iraz doesn't care about his brother. Focus more on food that is still closed.

"Why are you, Stevan?"

Iraz lifted his face, looking at his sister annoyed. "What am I?"

"You're weird! Look what you've been doing since you got back! Never eat healthy food! Always instant noodles. Look at that always moody face! You also work from morning till late! You mean do that what?" Vey is not angry, but he is sorry for his strange sister.

"That's up to me." answered Iraz devouring his instant noodles.

"Yes, that's up to you. But plis thinks of your life. Please do not neglect your health. It's important, you know," Vey said frustratedly.

"Yes Stevan. Come on, don't be like this. You used to be the most concerned about your health. The present you are ignoring!" Axel went along to advise his wife's sister.

"Urus is your business." said Iraz. "I'm fine."

"Oh, you don't understand, Stevan! We who are tormented see you like this. You're the only one who says you're okay. But in reality you're not okay."

Zizi saw the man. Suddenly he stopped eating. "Rather than Kiking eating instant noodles, mending Kiking ate Zizi porridge. It's not okay. Zizi won't mind as long as Kikings are eating." Zizi got down from the chair, lifted a bowl of porridge that he had eaten. Put it in front of Iraz.

"Said Mama, we should not eat instant foods in large quantities. Because it will turn into a disease. So Kiking must eat this so as not to get sick" Zizi said passionately.

Axel who saw his daughter so full of smiles. He wants Iraz to appreciate Zizi's efforts to keep the little girl happy. But, unwanted circumstances happen.

"Udah. I'm full." Iraz refused. He stood up and took his instant noodle cup away to the exit. Looks like he's going to throw it in the trash can that's up ahead.

"Don't be sad, honey, we'll try again tonight. Smile," comfort Axel.

"Yes, Zizi is not sad. Zizi was so happy to see Kiking eating. What if not, it's even more dangerous." the girl followed by comforting herself.

"Mama's son turned out to be a pinter." Vey smiled sincerely at his daughter. Of course he knew his daughter was hurt by Iraz's rejection.

"Well, he's Kiking." Zizi smiled back. Looking at her behavior, Zizi did not deserve to be seven years old. But believe it or not, she was still a seven-year-old little girl. Special little girl's.

"Later tonight Zizi will cook for Kiking. I hope he wants to."

Iraz entered his room after a long journey. He's independent now. No need for a private driver. No need for personal guards either. He can be alone without the help of others.

When I first stepped out of the car, Iraz had received a lot of respect and greetings. And this happened long ago, ever since he gave himself up to occupy the seat of his papa greatness. I don't know from what age he forgot.

The man looked ahead. Quite surprised to see a woman was already waiting for him.

"The urine sucks!" annoyed.
