Helena was surprised to see Lara return home in a hurry, but the girl said goodbye not even ten minutes ago.
"Without? Is anyone missing?"
The one being questioned was only silent as it passed. While Helena was increasingly astonished by Lara's attitude that seemed to hide her face.
Upset, Helena looked at her daughter sharply while clenching her hands. The girl should have received the punishment, but Lara could not heed her words.
"Well! Mama is asking! You can ignore Mama." Helena finally shouted loudly because of growling. His gaze did not shift from the figure of the princess who was immediately pegged on the stairs.
Still in anger, Helena approached her daughter with quick steps, then snapped.
"Why go home before you go to college! Why is it that I hide my face? You cry!"
Lara who was trying to hold back tears finally shed in front of her mother. The girl turned to Helena with a wet face.
Mata Helena buyak. Drawn the princess's arm violently until Lara's position is right facing her. "Gosh Lara. What other mischief are you making? What are you doing so early!" Instead of feeling pity, Helena accused her daughter of nothing.
"Ma. Couldn't it be, don't suspect continue with Lara?" the girl did not accept.
"Where does my mom suspect anything? The more believable you are, the more outrageous you are, Lara! Now go to college quickly. Poor Dante who has come a long way to pick you up. The chunky!" helena Sentak.
With a feeling of annoyance and indignation, Lara took a slow step to leave Helena. However, just a few steps the girl moved, Helena again called him until forced Lara stopped to listen to Helena talk.
"From now on your facility Mama pulled for a while! Automakers. All cards. And your pocket money is also Mama cut."
Lara could only clench her hands hearing her mother's shocking decision. Only tears know how she feels. Less ruined what is he now? Her engagement is confirmed to be void. Dante already knew his chastity had been taken away, even before he transacted with the thug yesterday. And now, all of its luxury facilities are also being withdrawn.
What else can he be proud of? His wealthy father was not his biological father. He is like just living on the wealth of papa Alisha, a person he hated lately. He doesn't even have any self-respect anymore. The only thing he can maintain is an ego attitude for the sake of prestige and cover up embarrassment.
Lara almost forgot that she was on time. He had approached his favorite car but then remembered if the key was requested by Helena. Damnit. Now what does he have to drive to get to college? Helena actually tortured him by pulling the entire facility, including the driver to drop off.
Accustomed to luxury life makes Lara do not know what is hard life. So, when he was faced with a difficult situation like now, the girl felt like her world was about to collapse. Lara always wanted to cry every time she remembered everything.
It was his first time riding on the capital's public transport. The impatient Lara even had to be tested by waiting a long time for the transport to arrive. He had to blend in with people he never knew with a variety of looks and body aromas. Breathing the same air. Crammed. Even his shoulders felt sore because they had to stand on hold. Lara does not yet know exactly how the outside world lives, so the girl does not know which public transportation is comfortable and easy.
For what reason would he be willing to live as tormented as he is now?
I don't know.
The savings? Hid. Lara had never even thought of saving. His parents' money was a lot. His efforts everywhere. For what he must save if his parents' property will not run out even though used for fun until their grandchildren. So thought Lara first.
Now the girl just felt and regretted half to death. Nothing could be expected of him anymore. Helena didn't even take care of it. The woman is busy with her mission to reclaim Narendra's attention. What else if not by torturing him?
Ask a friend for help? Ah, Lara doesn't even have any friends in grief. Those who claim to be Lara's friends only come in her happy moments. Lara didn't even have the courage to call David. That young man must be the same as Dante. Disgusted to see his true self.
Rubbing her forehead that was dewy by the sweat, Lara looked towards the front with a look of disbelief. The campus area is still very far from where it stands after getting off the transport. He looked down. High heels that he wears are not very suitable if used for roads that far. You can be sure his feet will be blisters and sore.
At once the girl wanted to give up and cry. And again he blames fate so cruel. Why should he feel this?
In the midst of her despair Lara felt something touch her hand. At first slowly, but over time felt stronger and tipped a pull. The girl was so surprised she almost screamed. Unfortunately the figure of the man deftly smothered his mouth and brought Lara to a protected place.
At first Lara looks panicked because she feels threatened. However, after recognizing the figure of the plainclothes man, he sighed and rubbed his chest in relief.
"Ngagetin, anyway! I thought you were kidnappers, you know!" snarl.
"Well, boss forgot we were kidnappers?" The man chuckled.
"Damn." Lara snorted while rubbing her wrist.
"Boss, where do I pay?" The man raised his hand.
Lara stopped the movement of her hands, then looked at the man fiercely. "What payday! The work guy is not okay either."
"What's wrong? Heh–" The man pulled Lara's arm then looked at the girl sharply, then then hissed with a tone of undeniable threat. "Lo don't try to run away from responsibility, yeah. I've done whatever you told me. I'm sure you won't live quietly before my rights are paid."
Lara swallowed her saliva with great difficulty. His hair shuddered in horror at the man's words. He ventured back to the man's gaze to cover his nervousness. Do not look weak so that he is not oppressed.
"Heh, you think I'm fuckin! I must have paid, though. Just relax!" ketus Lara while pulling her hand from the man's check.
"Where is that!" Again the man raised his hand.
"Entar! Not now. I don't have any cash" Lara said.
"OKAY. But beware if you are lying. I'll give you until midnight. If I have not received the money, then ...." The man paused and used his index finger to line his neck, as if the man was hinting at Lara if she didn't pay him.
Suddenly Lara's breath felt tight. He's never been this scared before. With trembling legs and dripping sweat, Lara looked at the back of the man who was moving away with a pale face. For now he can breathe a sigh of relief, but later and further? I don't know. Could it be that he had to say goodbye to the world?
