"Who is that woman auntie?" Asked Madam's nephew.
He remembered the woman who fought with full force with the man who was not in himself because of illegal drugs. But even so, she bravely confronted the man so that she could only defend her friend who had almost become a victim of the groups of men who are customers of two women.
Madam's nephew could not forget what he witnessed even before he was stabbed.
He blocked his body from the knife held by the man who wanted to stab the woman.
"She was a friend of Trina, he said she needed a lot of money for her sick mother. So, Trina took her to the club to hopefully earn some money. But suddenly on her first day, there was an immediate commotion."
Madam's face shows her frustration with what happened. She lost a lot because of the chaos.
But she thought that what happened to their reprimanded customers was even better. Instead of being angry, she was even happier because the customers who fought with Sofia had been taught a lesson.
Madam also thought that she would lose more, when she was involved, even with the women in the bar not using illegal drugs.
Madam said in her mind that it would be harder for her and it would be burdensome for her if that happened if their reprimanded customers were not given a lesson.
Maybe many are losing their job to her nightclub because it may also cause the closure of her bar.
Madam was very grateful to Sofia for her brave rescue of her friend, even to everyone at the bar.
"She's a friend of Trina?" Madam nodded.
Madam's nephew was already at home after a few days of relaxation inside the hospital.
His doctor released him to the hospital because of his many pleas for her discharge.
He was confined for a few days after operating on his wound that was stabbed twice with a knife by Sofia's male opponent.
"Auntie, can you call that woman for me? I want to talk to her, I want to ask her to pay me for what happened to me," he said with orders to his auntie. Madam has a big eye while looking at him.
"Don't tell me you're interested in her?" Madam smiled. Only now did she see her niece who was interested in a woman.
"Let's say, yes, I am interested in her. So I wanted to talk to her about the debt she needs to pay. And, there is another. I also want to offer him a job." Madam was surprised, even more, her eyes widening after she heard what her niece said.
Madam knew little about her nephew's life. When her niece was still studying, her life and her niece's life were difficult. While her niece was still studying, Madam was wondering where she would get her niece's daily allowance while he was studying.
Madam had no family except for her niece who was left to her by her sister after she gave birth to her baby boy who was conceived and given birth by no father.
Madam could no longer get married after losing her sister and left her the baby boy born to her sister. Her sister also died after giving birth, so he and her nephew were the only ones left, living together.
Madam was surprised when her nephew was studying. Suddenly one day he didn't ask her for money. Even his allowance. Often Madam is even given and it says he earns it from working.
He was not told what kind of job his nephew entered. It just says that his job is good and he doesn't do anything bad with the job he has, so because of his job, he can save and he also gives to his aunt.
Madam's nephew concluded that even five cents, he didn't want her auntie to spend on his studies.
He was still giving money to his Auntie so his Auntie also saved up and invested in opening the bar.
They lived well, prosperously far from what they had gone through before.
Madam opened a bar to help others. But she never forced the women who worked in her bar to do things they didn't want.
Normally, there are only customers who want someone to talk to while drinking. But some of their customers are fond of and eager for female sex partners. But it still depends on the woman each customer chooses. Cannot be forced if the woman does not want to consent to the wishes of her customer.
Madam forbids a lot in her bar. Some follow the policy and some customers love to violate such as those Sofia faced and opponents by Sofia.
"Auntie, call the woman ahh, tell her I want to talk to her." Madam's niece reminded again. Madam was blown away.

"Sofia, thank you for saving me the other day. It's bad if that really went on, I might even be put in jail with those idiots." Trina sighed. They ate their lunch in the cafeteria.
Trina reminded her of what happened the other day to her at the bar. She could not forget that because of her someone had perished in her deed.
Sofia blames herself until now she thinks about it.
How is he? She often asks herself as she wonders what happened now to the man who saved her life that she should have been stabbed by her opponent and not the man who was stabbed and taken to the hospital.
"The guy who saved you that night was so handsome," Trina spoke flirty and shuddered.
"You know. He doesn't approach any women in the bar. He's always in a corner and he's only watching what's happening while drinking. But congratulations girl, you got his attention and it looks like he typed you." She was even more excited to tell the news.
"Just kidding, he saved your life. So you should thank him."
How could she be thankful she didn't know where he was? Where does he live? He did not know. How would she do the thank you if that was just the first and last time they met.
Only then did she see and meet the man. How could she thank him if he didn't show up to her after the incident?
"You know him, don't you? Where can I see him?"
Trina wasn't surprised when Sofia asked about the guy and where she could find him. Instead, it smiled at Sofia.
"Why are you smiling?"
"No, I'm not, I think you're both interested in each other," Trina said. Sofia raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean?" Her eyebrows met, slightly nervous.
Trina smiled, with a slight trace of sadness. But, it's only slightly. She was still happy for her friend. "He's looking for you," said Trina.
"What did you say?" Sofia was shocked to hear.
"Why is he looking for me?" Sofia asked.
"I do not know. Madam just told me to tell you that he's looking for you. That's all I know. No one mentioned that Madam was different from me last night." Trina replied, she also sighed as she looked at Sofia's surprised look.
Sofia thought.
Why would he look for me? Sofia asked herself.
But, Sofia also asked Trina if she knew where to find the man who saved her life.
Her male savior one time, she almost perished.
They are looking for each other.
Is it just a coincidence? Or is it destiny that they will meet again?
