The New Normal Love
cooperation agreement

avril and Pingkan were still chatting in the living room. Mus was there. Arzen came down from the room and joined in.

"good day, sir."

"sit down, mus."

Mus according to when Arzen was already sitting in his chair.

"where do we start ?"

"from the photos alone." exclaimed Avril.

"well, I explained. The photo was taken in bar XX. the man in the photo is my ex-boyfriend.we were having a fight so..."

"i understand."

"sorry but your clothes are like not visitors.even sexy and almost nude" said mus.

"of course, I'm poor, I'm just a barmaid. that night there was a bikini party there, what power we were just the waiter had to wear it.

"do you know who is the photographer ?"

"no. but I remember his face. he also wears a reporter ID card."

"journalist !"

"yes, Alex couldn't accept anyone taking pictures of him carelessly.he was after him."

"who's alex ?"

"boyfriend, uh my ex-boyfriend's master."

"you broke up ? not that you're after the reporter."

"indeed, but ever since the photo was scattered Alex disappeared, he just sent a chat on whatapps if he asked to break up. he was so embarrassed, he thought I was the one who told the reporter to take a picture and spread it." take a breath for a moment.

"why should I be ashamed ?" added avril.

"Everyone thinks I'm you, but everyone knows Alex as alex.he's a night entertainment entrepreneur but his father was a lecturer. this news made his father's image bad and he hated me because he respected his father a lot." pingkan stopped his story. "ah, I've not come here for that."

"you mean !"

"i'm here to ask Mr. Arzen for help."

"listen, miss, it's not too presumptuous to ask me for help when we don't know each other at all."

"zen..." avril was about to beg Arzen to help but pingkan as if he already knew what Avril would do. he immediately signaled to be silent by holding Avril's hand.

"sir, I'm poor but I'm not stupid.I know you're a good young entrepreneur, and for a profit entrepreneur it's not important."

"then..."

"if my request for help is not agreed with you it's good to consider my request for cooperation."

"what kind of partnership do you want ?" arzen began to be interested in the word pingkan.

think for a moment. Arzen continued to look at him curiously. Avril who witnessed Arzen's behavior suddenly felt numb, as soon as he stepped on the foot of Arzen who was right near his feet.

"uh."

"what's the matter, sir."

"no, mus. It's just that your big lady's leg nudged my leg."

"big lady ?" mus seemed to not understand the words of his master.while Avril blushed in shame.

"forget the mus."

"well, continue miss Pingkan."

"i'm willing to help clarify to the media that what was photographed is me. As long as you are ready to help some of my problems."

"but what about your image, ping. what netizens will think."

"i'm poor and despicable.everyone hates me that's normal.I just hope to solve some of the problems that continue to plague my life. at least if these problems are sorted out I cantkin bid quiet life even though no one wants to be beside me." he said softly. Avril felt that there was great sorrow for her.

"say what's your problem ?"

"first, can you lend me money. I want to pay off a debt that threatened me to sell myself to an old bandit named Amir."

"how much do you need ?"

"two hundred million."

"huh, two million ?" avril was so nano. "what kind of debt is that used ?"

"my mother was a gambler, she lost and made me a guarantee of her debts."

"so bad is your mother, miss." said Mus.

"that's how it is, and because of this I find that she's not my real mother."

"all right, don't go into debt, I'll give it to you for free after the press conference is over."

"really, thank you, sir."

"what do I want to do for ibumuz seems like you want me to handle it too ?" guess Arzen.

"just right, can you help investigate who he really is and how his past is."

"no, vril. I'm happy, at least I know the basis of his cruelty to me that never did anything wrong to him. I just want to know who I really am."

"but you're always together, right.maybe you've told me something ?"

" one day when he was drunk I once asked about myself.he replied that I was his bastard son with his girlfriend first.my father did not want to be responsible because my mother was only an *******. I believed him because he said drunk people could never lie, but.." pingkan gulped for a moment. staring at Avril who was so curious. "but after I saw you on television, I started to wonder if you were my sister, and I wanted to make sure of that, too."

"alright, I've understood.but are you not going to betray us ?" Arzen stared hard at pingkan.

"just so sir, make a contract of cooperation with batteries.You can sue me if I dare to do that." said pingkan confidently.

"mus..."

"well, sir, I will make it." sigap mus who already knows the facial expression and intonation of his master.

mus rushed to Arzen's workspace, returning in five minutes with a contract of cooperation.

"mus, ask uncle to investigate about miss pingkan's mother. Also ask banh Romi to help do DNA tests on Avril and Miss Pingkan."

"well, sir, miss do you have a picture of your mother."

"there's a moment sir." took out a photo from his wallet. "this sir, my mother's name is Tini." Mus immediately took the photo.

"thank you, sir."

"heem. tomorrow at 10 am will be held a press conference.You should come. The investigation about your mother will begin afterwards.

"i'm sure to come, sir."

"and the money I'll give you at that time."

"thank you very much for the generosity, sir."

Arzen smiled faintly.

"ping, thank you." said Avril.

"for what ?"

"you saved me already."

"saving ? what happened to you ?" Arzen started to panic.

"so I was attacked by three thugs."

"what !" Arzen was very angry. "this you, this must be because you were desperate to go out."

"but I had to."

"forced you said."

"dengerin first. today my menstrual schedule, I don't have a stock of pads. call Aris, Febri same Finy no one lift."

"why don't you call me, huh."

"i called you too."

"mus.." sharply delicates on the mus.

"he sir, the lady called you earlier, but you have an important meeting so I..."

"you know your actions put my Avril at risk."

"yes sir."

"be prepared for punishment." he jolted.

"Arzen, don't be rich, sir mus is not wrong."

"yes sir, I'm sorry if I was presumptuous. It's also my fault, the men were Amir's man. They thought Avril was me so they attacked Avril." said Pingkan.

"Amir ? the same person who wanted to buy you out of your mother's debt ?"

Arzen is heating up.

"yes sir."

"mus, find out about him, and teach him a lesson for being reckless with my Avril."

"well, sir."

"ah, it's hot." Arzen passed by while opening his shirt.

"where are you going ?"

"shower."

"wasn't it a shower ?"

"quietly you, I'll soak while thinking of punishment for you."

"punishment ?" Avril was really astonished.

"mistress, please understand. mister's mood is bad so he is like that." mus said.

really weird people.punishing people who are not wrong at all. why should I be stuck with this weirdo. Unfortunately, I also started to like it.
