Pulchritude Case

Jemari Jasmine clasped Yardan's hand, the sound of an ECG machine accompanying her patience waiting for her father to wake up. The rain is out there all day, bad weather is present without saying hello. Worried about his father's condition that never opened his eyes made Jasmine afraid. They just had an accident. When picking up the child, Yardan was hit by a car, causing her to faint. While Jasmine, she had blisters on some parts of her body. Luckily, they met a good man who took them to the hospital.


"Jasmine?"


Deline was the one who helped them. Half a day he spent with the hit-and-run victim. The girl could not bear to see both of them if they had to be left alone. After getting acquainted with Jasmine he began to get familiar with her. The boy told me a little about his life with his father.


"Come, eat first."


Jasmine shakes. He had no appetite for thinking about his father's condition. Deline rubbed her hair, she assured Jasmine that her father would be fine. Finally, the boy complies. The incident may have traumatized him, saw Yardan dragged a car as far as 2 kilo meters.


"When will you wake up, brother?"


"Surely wake up soon."


Every innocent question she asked Deline made her smile. Jasmine was a smart child, understanding English the first time Deline asked her to speak. Yardan opened her eyes— looked at the ceiling of the room, then turned her head towards Jasmine being fed a woman.


"Jasmine?"


The boy turned his head, he put on a big smile seeing that his father had regained consciousness. Jasmine hugged Yardan gratefully.


"Dad's up—So, Dad's up. Is Dad feeling sick?" Yardan.


He tried to lean. "You who?"


"Include me Deline. I took you to the hospital,"


"Sir Deline is a good man Well," added Jasmine.


"Then what about the car that grazed us?"


"So calm down, the police are after him."


Yardan frowned, with conditions like this, of course, would issue medical funds. It had already been his planned savings to pay private teachers for Jasmine. The man smiled faintly as he rubbed the child's head, his promise to keep that goal failing again. His arm was fractured due to the accident earlier, it is certain that he will be on leave for work. How was his day after this? Who's gonna cook for Jasmine? It's hard being a single parent. Yardan wanted to cry feeling the trials of her life.


"Miss, thank you so much for your help. However, Jasmine and I cannot continue to be here. I'm going home tomorrow,"


"But the condition of Mr-,"


"No problem, a few more days will be healed."

In the interrogation room, Kevin was waiting for someone. He put on a thin smile. His hand playing a pen, he was already impatiently waiting for that person. Shortly after, a police officer forced Prosecutor Val into handcuffs.


"Hi, how's the surprise?"


Val smiled in anguish.


"Tell me what the bodies are for? You ate it—sound disgusting, don't you? Your image in the public eye will soon-" Kevin practices falling objects.


"A charge that is not weighted at all. Just once seeing me with that kind of appearance did you instantly establish me as a criminal? It's funny this cop."


Val was also shocked when she got a warrant. He was confused as to what mistake he had made. The police approached and took him by force. He was quite embarrassed that some media crew interviewed him about the case. Val did not expect that the person he met a few days ago intended to take him down.


"A famous prosecutor is apparently a corpse thief. With the purpose of offering to the devil who has been conspiring with you to boost popularity, right?"


Val laughs. This particular joke, why did the man in front of him sound ridiculous. He was not finished with the accusations that Kevin made. It's crazy, as long as Val lives he never understands what a conspiracy is with a supernatural being. Yes, such a thing does exist in the world, but Val never understood how. Why ask for help to astral beings, while his legs and hands can still get the popularity of it.


"This stupidity, moreover? Funny thing—for what I used those creatures just for the sake of popularity? And what evidence do you have, I'd better stay in the detention room with the criminals." Val moved while giggling.


"Proof yes?"


Just as Kevin said it, a man entered the room. He stole a look when he confronted Val. Yep, he was one of his men who ran away at the funeral. Shit, did this bastard say everything? Val's body froze on the spot.


"Isn't he good enough to be a witness?" Kevin stood in front of Val by putting both his hands in his pocket.

The smell of drugs in the hospital, the sound of wheeled beds being pushed and the voices of doctors and nurses discussing certain patients made him uncomfortable. The awaited day had arrived, Yardan immediately rushed out of the room and paid for her medical expenses. She was shocked when the nurse said that the medical expenses had been paid off by someone without mentioning his name.


Yardan thinks the hit-and-run actor is responsible for his behavior? Ah I don't know, she's grateful and grateful for this relief. Together with Jasmine stepped out of the hospital. Breathing fresh air that is not contaminated by drugs. A black car pulls over in front of Yardan and Jasmine, featuring a woman he knows.


The father of one child subtly rejected her, he did not want to trouble Deline anymore. However, Jasmine whined to come with him. He must obey the will of the child. Yardan did not understand why this girl always appeared in front of them. His help yesterday was enough, and now he gave both of them a ride. The man did not stop saying thanks to Deline.


"Jasmine didn't go to school today, because I'm sick." The boy nodded.


"The plan is I want Jasmine to go home school with a private teacher, but I don't know when." said Yardan from the back seat.


"Home schooling means Father?"


"Whatever the name is, maybe it is. Several times seeing Jasmine being pierced by her friends made me not have the heart. I'm worried about his mental health,"


That's right, Deline had heard of it from Jasmine. Yesterday he saw a piece of gum stuck to his hair. When asked, the boy replied that his friends were doing such mischievous acts. From that Deline understood that Jasmine was experiencing bullying in her school, but for some reason. Though Jasmine is a beautiful and smart girl, she also looks easy to get along with.


"If you allow me, may I present myself as a private teacher to Jasmine? I happen to be a teacher who teaches kids home schooling," while driving he handed his business card to Yardan.


Instantly his eyes were beaming. "this serious? You're a private teacher? Well I didn't expect to get a teacher for Jasmine this fast,"


"But Miss-" he continued hanging.


"Why, Sir?


"I'm sorry if the down payment to pay you is less than half, but I promise I'll pay it off soon."


Deline smiled, then answered. "That's easy, sir. I do this sincerely and sincerely. We know each other, don't we?"


The happy glint that emanated on Yardan's face was endless. She was so happy, Jasmine would finally be free from the mental pressure she had been feeling all along. The father of one child felt grateful to have been reunited with a good girl like Deline. She also looks like a patient girl, perfectly suited as her child's guardian. The two of them are also familiar and connect, Yardan will not waste this opportunity.


Before the farewell, Deline gives parcels in the form of instant preparations to make it easier for Yardan to prepare food. Because his right hand was in trouble, so Deline initiatively wanted them to go about their daily lives without difficulty. Seeing the condition of single parents must be difficult to live their days without an escort.


Deline went into the house with a happy heart. Her maiden opportunity to guide someone made the girl excited. A few days ago he had received a teaching certificate, so it was time to work as a private teacher.


"Del, where are you from?" Danesh surprised.


"Good God, Brother Dan. Make jangangan—em a walk,"


"No good news for you,"


"What's that?"


"My friend's nephew is looking for a private teacher, so you have to take it. It's a good opportunity to show your skills—you know? They are from the family of the office" whispered Danesh at the end of the sentence.


Deline bit her lip. "But, sister, I'm so sorry I got a student. Just made a deal,"


"Huh? Who?" Danesh tailed behind Deline.


"She is Jasmine, the daughter of the person I helped yesterday. A girl with a genetic disorder, I feel sorry for her. She is oft bullied by her friends at school, so her father took the initiative to make her daughter undergo home schooling." Deline replied while arranging her books on the table.


"The payment you received is in accordance with the provisions, right?"


"Em—aku gave them waivers not to pay whole. They're an underprivileged family, so I did that."


Danesh feels unacceptable. "But Del, it's business. You should have set the price whole as usual—begini, forget them and accept the official's son as your student."


"What's? Can't Brother Dan, I'm sorry."


"Deline, you're not doing charity for a poor family, are you?"


The girl felt uncomfortable when her sister said something inappropriate.


"This is not charity or business, but about humanity. Your words are like you're looking down on them." - Deline.


"Whatever, do as you please. You really don't understand" Danesh got carried away. He was disappointed with his sister's attitude.


This is their first debate about something that is not as thoughtful. Danesh's intentions were good enough to promote him directly to teach the children of the office, with the aim that Deline would hang out with more prominent people. Automatically his status will be seen very good for some people. As for Deline, she wanted to give Jasmine the best chance of home schooling.


He did not want if the child continued to be bullied by his friends. Already suffering from genetic disorders, can you see it battered by mental pressure? The potential of the child is also quite qualified in several subjects. It was a pity that Jasmine would have to undergo mental stress that would affect her learning interest. After all, they also really need a private teacher figure.


"Remember when you seduced me to join you for dinner? Yes, I didn't ask for an item or anything else. I just asked you to support this decision,"


Danesh is like a scaled chess piece. He almost forgot about his promise, but Deline took advantage of the opportunity to let him down. Okay, his sister was clever to trap him. A man cannot take back what was said.
