Chapter 12. The Family Residence

Winda still feels uncomfortable when she thinks of the woman who was so arrogant. There are still people like that, he himself is at fault but blames others who are almost victims. Now life is getting harder and harder. Everything can be reversed, the victim becomes a suspect, wrongly justified, the truth is to blame. Rarely do people want to admit their mistakes and apologize. Whatever, you can't force other people. It is important how we protect ourselves so as not to be affected by the adverse effects of the environment.

Winda got out of the taxi right in front of her house, she immediately went in to rest.

"Winda" called someone from behind.

Winda turned around to see who was calling her.

"Winda, how are you dear?" said the man.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Winda answered flatly when she found out that the man was Ari.

"I'm very good news because I have met you, dear. How about you accompany me to eat, we have something to talk about," said Ari.

"I'm tired, just got home." Winda tried to refuse.

"Tired of hanging out with other men?" Ari's voice rose. Ari is easy to get emotional.

"What?!" Winda felt that Ari's words made no sense.

"We have to talk. I don't want to hear excuses. Now you must come with me!" Forced Ari while gripping Winda's arm firmly, until Winda moaned in pain.

"Ah, it hurts, just cover me, Ari," said Winda, holding the pain in her arm.

"Come on," Ari pulled Winda into his car.

"Ok, I'm coming but let go of your hand."

Ari's car sped up and stopped at a restaurant that is quite famous. Winda was surprised because Ari didn't usually invite Winda to a place like this.

"Aren't we in the wrong place?" asked Winda when Ari's car was parked.

"Why? Are you surprised? I was also able to take you to expensive restaurants like the man who picked you up this morning," said Ari arrogantly.

"I think you misunderstood," Winda realized that her boyfriend was jealous. Winda finally smiled.

"Why? What's wrong? Why are you smiling?" Ari was surprised to see the change in Winda's expression.

"Smiling is wrong too?" Winda asked back.

The two of them sat at a table for two by the window with a beautiful view.

"Honey, I miss you," said Ari later.

"Oh, yes?" Winda replied briefly.

"I'm serious. A few days we do not meet, you look more beautiful," Ari began to rag.

Winda is just silent, she is too full of Ari's seduction, this is Ari's habit to be kind to restore their somewhat tenuous relationship. Winda started eating the food in front of her.

"Who was the man who picked you up this morning?" asked Ari, starting to interrogate.

"She's my new patient assistant. I was assigned to Homecare by the head nurse for one week," Winda explained.

"Assistant? That neat?" Ari doubts Winda's explanation.

"You can ask the head nurse if you don't believe it." Winda is lazy to serve Ari's jealousy.

"Not so dear I mean. I just made sure you didn't play behind my back. I was just too in love and didn't want to lose you," explained Ari.

"It's evening, I want to go home." Winda changed the subject.

"Okay, I have to work nights too."

In front of Winda's house, "Thank you, be careful on your way." Winda said before getting out of the car.

"Wait" Ari held Winda's hand, brought his face closer to kiss Winda.

"There is an incoming call," said Winda reasoned, reaching for the cellphone in her bag and pretending to talk when the cellphone stuck to her ear. Winda immediately got down and waved to Ari.

Winda feels lazy with Ari, for some reason she feels that this relationship is not as sweet as it used to be. Winda just needs time to think about all this. Thinking what he really wants.

At the residence of the Adijaya family ...

"Where is Young Master Luis?" asked the woman with a mole in the upper left corner of her lips.

"The young master is resting in his room," replied Niko.

"I want to meet him."

"Sorry Miss, you'd better come back later or wait in the living room," Niko suggested.

The woman didn't listen to Niko. She went straight to Luis's room. Niko tried to prevent it but failed. The woman is too stubborn and arbitrary. Niko surrenders and follows the arrogant woman. The woman entered Luis's room and sat on the edge of the bed. Admire her good looks and try to caress Luis's cheek. Luis felt he smiled with his eyes still closed. Holding the hand that stroked his, Luis slowly opened his eyes.

"Hi, my young master," said the woman with a seductive smile.

"Hah!" Luis was surprised. "Jesika?" said Luis incredulously.

At Winda's house, Bunda Puspitasari was sitting in front of the TV, surprised to see her daughter just returned home.

"Good evening, Mother," said Winda, kissing her on the cheek.

"Night, just got home dear?" asked Mother.

"Yes Mother, Winda actually came home earlier at four but Ari was waiting in front and invited Winda to eat," Winda explained.

"Why is Ari waiting in front? Why don't you wait at home and meet Bunda? But, never mind. Ari has always been like that." The Mother understands that Ari's character is like that, that's one thing you don't like about Ari.

"Winda take a shower first, Bun."

After taking a shower, Winda saw her cellphone and remembered Intan, then sent a message for her.

"What are you doing tan? I'm home."

"[Night service, but how slow is the work, how was it? What was your patient like?]" Asked Intan curiously.

Winda explained in detail about her patient, until Winda told of an arrogant woman who almost ran her over.

"[Wow, interesting. Uhm, I think there will be something between you and Mr. Luis. What do you think, Winda? Hahaha]" Intan teased Winda.

"I'm going to sleep, sleepy," Winda avoided.

"[Hahaha ... don't forget to dream of your prospective new prince]" wrote Intan teasing her best friend.

Winda closed her cellphone and smiled at her friend's joke. What nonsense is that Intan. Mr. Luis is my patient, how could anything happen. Hemm looks like Mr. Luis also has a girlfriend. She is beautiful, graceful, and classy. Although her attitude is not very good. Inner Winda.
