My babysitter Maduku
Chapter 65

Arini has just come out of her contract and she accidentally meets Suci, her co-worker. He and the Saints were both shocked as they sat with each other at that moment.

"Well, Arini! You live here now, right?" holy asked with a big smile looking at Arini.

"Yes, I just moved in. Assisted by Mrs Arniz and Mr. Malik. By the way, you live around here too?" ask Arini back while returning her friend's smile.

"Yes, my contract is on the side. Um, it's appropriate that this morning I saw Mr. Malik and Mrs Arniz passing in front of my contract. I was confused as to why they were here early in the morning. Uh, it's helping you, yeah. But good, deh. So we can just keep going to the boutique, right" said Suci later.

"Yes, you're right. Uh, by the way I'm leaving, nih! Want to go out with you?"

"Yes, me too. Yuk!"

Suci took Arini's hand and then they stepped together to the boutique owned by Lady Arniz which is only about a hundred meters from Arini and Suci's contract.

Today Arini is working with passion. Mrs Arniz also looks very satisfied with the results of her work. In addition to deft, it turns out that Arini is also quick to respond. Though he has not been working at the boutique for too long, but Arini already knows how to read the wishes of the visitors in the boutique owned by Mrs Arniz.

It didn't feel like noon was coming. The sun had risen and it was time for Arini to rest and enjoy her lunch. However, just now he wanted to get ready to go to a food stall not far from the boutique, suddenly one of the security guards approached him.

"Bak Arini, there's someone who wants to see you" the security guard said.

Arini knitted her two eyebrows in surprise. In addition, she also felt anxious, afraid that someone who was waiting for her out there was her husband, Dodi.

"Who, Sir?" asked Arini in a stammer.

"He said that he was a neighbor of Mbak Arini before," replied the security officer again.

With hesitation, Arini stepped over to the glass and peeked out of the place. He looked around and finally Arini's beautiful eyes caught the figure of a good man who had always helped him.

"Mas Hendra!" screeched Arini while stroking his chest because he felt relieved.

It turns out that his fear did not come true. With a quick step, Arini approached Hendra who was now standing in front of his car. The man smiled sweetly when he saw Arini coming closer to him.

"Arini .. ah, thank goodness you are well" Hendra said as Arini stood before him.

"Yes, Mas Hendra. I'm fine, even very good," replied Arini.

"Ehm, Arini, can we talk to you for a second? There's something I want to talk to you about." Hendra singed a thin smile and at that time Arini's gaze was immediately fixed on the bruise that was clearly visible on Hendra's lips due to Dodi's punch.

At that time Arini was very curious. He was eager to ask about the bruise on Hendra's face, but he was afraid the man was offended.

"But this time I paid. I don't want you to treat me like I used to, how?"

Arini laughed crisply. "Okay, okay. Besides, my finances are running low and my payday is still a long time."

"Deal."

Hendra followed Arini's steps towards a roadside food stall located not far from Mrs Arniz's boutique. Upon arrival at the stall, Hendra and Arini immediately order food for them. Then sit on one of the empty chairs while waiting for the food they have ordered.

"Ehm ... Arini." Hendra opened his voice. However, he still seemed hesitant to say it. Afraid Arini was offended after hearing her question.

"Yes, why, Mas?"

"So morning Mas Dodi went berserk. He said you ran away from home and he accused me of taking you away" Hendra said with a wry smile.

"What's? Don't tell me that the bruise on Mas Hendra's face was caused by Mas Dodi," cried Arini with a worried face looking at Hendra who was now smiling at him.

Hendra did not answer. The man kept smiling and his face looked very calm.

"Good God, so that's right! On behalf of Mas Dodi, I apologize profusely to you, Mas Hendra. I'm really embarrassed" Arini said later with his head bowed in shame.

"You don't have to apologize. Dodi did it because he was fucked up. So many problems that he is facing right now and make him unable to control his emotions well," replied Hendra.

"Yes, coupled with the work demotion carried out by his superiors because the news of Mas Dodi's affair with Anissa was spread in the company. Right now the house is very chaotic, Mas. I know that from Bi Surti who is now home because Mas Dodi is not able to pay his salary. Lucky I left the house because honestly, I couldn't stand a roof with Anissa" said Arini with a sad face.

"Gosh, that means the news I heard from the next-door neighbor was true. Dodi is down." Hendra shook his head slowly because he did not expect what had happened to Dodi.

"Yes. Um, Mas Hendra. I beg you very much, don't ever tell me about Mas Dodi. Right now I really want to be alone. I want to be free of that man and his family. I've had enough of my devotion to their families. Devotion is only in the eyes," said Arini.

"No way, Arini. Even if Mas Dodi threatens me, I will never tell him about you. Um, by the way, don't you want to lead the divorce to Mas Dodi? I'm sorry, if my question sounds so disrespectful." Hendra stared fixedly at Arini and he was really curious how Arini was currently feeling to the man.

Arini breathed a heavy sigh. "I'm actually thinking about that, Mom. But for now my money is still not enough to file for divorce in court. Later if my money is enough, I will immediately file for divorce, so that I can be free and get out of their lives" replied Arini confidently.

Hendra smiled. I don't know why he was happy to hear Arini's answer at the time.
