The Household Ark
Lina 3

Rina grabbed him and pressed a few numbers and called him. A few moments the phone managed to connect and be picked up.

"hall..."

the mother's voice sounded from across.

"this is Rina."

"o Lord Rina, where have you been all night not to go home.not to mention! are you okay, son?!"

"i'm fine mom. I stayed at a friend's house last night.hp I was left behind in Fila Max in a hurry."

"thank you if you're okay, son, when are you coming home?"

"later I'll call mom again, but maybe not today, ma'am."

"all right, the important thing is that you're healthy and well. I was worried last night."

"i'm fine mom don't have to worry, then I turn it off first Mom."

Rian turned off the phone and handed the phone back to Jojo, who had been there since.

"thank you..."

he then continued to eat the porridge that began to be rather cold because it was left too long.

actually Jojo wanted to ask but he paused.The expression of Rina's face that was so sad made her think again to ask this and that.

"if you're done eating the medicine and you can rest again."

Jojo steps towards the door leaving Rina alone in the room.

she cleaned up her used kitchen she cooked and and and had breakfast this morning.

shortly after the kitchen work was done apparently Rina was already standing behind him with a porridge bowl and empty glass.

"why just stand there? bring me the plates and the glasses let me wash them."

Rina was silent as she handed the plate and glass in her hand to Jojo, then she sat down on the dining room chair while watching Jojo who was busy herself.

"you didn't ask me why I was there last night?"

Lina broke the silence that lasted a while between them.

Jojo did not immediately answer.he turned off the sink faucet and then stepped closer to Rina.

he took a chair next to Rina and sat facing the woman who had been watching him since.

"would you answer if I asked?"

Lina simply lowered her gaze arranging the end of the table before her.

"what's your name?"

Jojo asked his name because they had not been acquainted since.

"Rina." great-grandchild

"i'm Jojo." in his eyes for a moment the face of Rina who was still downcast reluctantly looked at him.

"listen to Rina. I won't ask you anything. I'm sure there must be a reason that makes you like this. I just want to help you that's all."

Rina looked towards Jojo with a face that was difficult to decipher.

"i'm sure someday you'll be happy, even though I don't know what problems you're facing, but you have to be sincere and airy to accept all the realities of life."

Jojo paused his words, he looked at the bruised face before him.

"if you can you can avenge this unjust treatment that befell you. One thing you should know, not always that woman is weak."

indirectly Jojo gave support for Rina to repay Max's actions to him, but actually not Jojo's intention to say so.

he himself did not know what kind of problem Lina was facing right now.

"if you don't want to go home yet, you can stay here a few days until you recover."

"thank you Jo."

"don't worry, you just take a break I have some work to do."

"if you need anything I'm in that room."

Jojo pointed to the room next to his room which he made a workspace.

"it's fine."

Lina immediately moved from there towards the guest room she occupied.she sat by the window-side staring out.

it turns out that the room faces the back garden of the house filled with orchid flowers.there is also a small pond dicana.

he opened the window for the air inside to change.The gurgling sound of the pool water made him slightly calm.

at a glance the shadow of his quarrel with Max again twisted his memory, and again Shanti's shadow that came out with Max from inside the same room made it even more devastated.

although he did not know what they were doing but it must not be something good.who would think like him if he found such a situation.

long he lamented everything, but his eyes were dripping again.Maybe they had dried up because they were drained overnight.

'I cannot be weak like this!'

'i must be able to repay the deeds of the two of them, especially Max, he has been so deep in incising this wound.'

'actually it would be easy if he refused the matchmaking, but somehow he wanted to take advantage of me instead.....!'

"utilize!" muttered.

suddenly his head gets one idea how he will repay Max for what he did to him.

a grin was clearly drawn on her beautiful face, although it still felt a little bit of pain from the slap from Max on her cheek, but it did not dampen the grudging smile at all.

she sat in front of the dresser mirror looking at her slightly swollen face.

he pulled the drawer over there looking for something in it, and before long found a small scissor of money still looked new.

slowly he opened his hair tie and made it unravel just like that. Her beautiful back and black long hair was so beautiful.

slowly he pointed the scissors to his hair wanting to cut it, but suddenly the scissors were snatched by someone.

"what are you doing?!"

with a slight gasp Jojo snatched the scissors from Rina's grasp.

"when have you been here?" Rina herself was a little surprised because suddenly Jojo was already there.

"i won't let you take this ridiculous step!"

Rina scrunched her forehead not understanding what maxut Jojo said that he thought strange.

"don't do nothing. Life is long!"

"what do you think I'm gonna do?"

"it's suicide, isn't it?"

only then did Rina understand what Jojo meant earlier.he just smiled at the man.

"why are you smiling?"

"I'm not going to kill myself, but I just want to cut my hair!"

"ap... what?"

Jojo stuttered a little. it turns out this woman only wants to cut her hair. huuuh.

"i'll help you then."

"can you cut your hair?"

"a little bit, though it won't be as weepy if you cut it in the salon of course."

"all right then. I want you to cut my hair this way!"

Lina pointed at her neck that level, she wanted to cut her hair.

"ba. good." Jojo lamented that beautiful hair will soon disappear.he took a deep breath and prepared to cut Rina's hair.
