The Simpang Jalan
Chapter 88

Likha felt lucky, because her body was still unattractive made her not glimpsed by visitors. Comforter women in this place many are very young, therefore visitors prefer young and sexy leaves, they pass by Likha just like that. However this was only good for him on one side only, the other side of the male they called Muma was staring intently at him.

Likha tried to be indifferent, and put on a fake smile, her body language seemed to attract guests who came, but in her heart was very hopeful that no one would be willing to hire her services.

The long needle shows at 5 am, Likha is the only one who can't make a deposit to the owner of this place. Muma conditioned his men to drag Likha, within seconds Likha was dragged to a distant place, a dark and desolate corner was behind the building. Muma followed him with such a huge blaze of anger.

"The new boy's father, hopefully he can stay alive until the sun shows his light" said one of the comfort women there.

Plaque!

Once a swing whip hit the surface of Likha's skin. Likha screamed, the extreme pain made her fall down.

"I bought you expensive! But you didn't give me anything!" The umpteenth time the whip hit Likha's skin.

"Had Muma, if Muma tortured him like this and then he died, Muma was getting bigger and bigger."

"Yes Muma, if his body is bruised the more impenetrable visitors see it."

"Look at Muma, how about if we take him first, his body shape, if he's been interesting and we tell him to work?"

"True Muma, I saw the way last night when attracting customers looks good, it looks like he's the temperature in attracting people."

"Prepare a place to lock him up so that he takes care and works hard to improve his body shape." The man asked his men to leave from there.

Day after day passed by, everyone was still struggling with their respective activities. After driving Rachel, Kia immediately headed to her new company building, once there she was not much work files.

"Excuse me Miss Kia." Secretary Kia approached with some documents.

"What's up Syila?"

"This is the care of his men Mr. Indra, he said he could not deliver directly."

Kia received the document and checked it. But his brain did not work to understand the document, he was imagined the incident on the beach, and Indra left with a sense of disappointment.

Am I too evil with Indra? He hasn't seen me for 2 months. Congratulations Kia, you lost the friend you were guarding.

Kia stopped staring at the document. "Thank you Shil." Kia came back with the previous rush.

"There's more ma'am."

"What else?"

"Outside there are guests who want to meet the mother, her name is Dharma."

Kia smiled hearing that name. "Let him come in."

"Good ma'am."

Within seconds, Dharma entered Kia's room with a happy face.

"How's Dharma? Who are you still choosing to go with?"

"No, I have decided to work with Mrs Azzalea Ryzkia" said Dharma.

"I'm glad to hear it, because a hard worker who is honest and intelligent like you is starting to be rare" Kia said.

"You're overdoing it, madam."

"Hey, where were your doubts some time ago, who hesitated to come with me or Davi? Which you say, your current career is also because of Davi, he's the one who honed your talent so I can see the quality of you."

"Welcome to Dharma, your position remains as it used to be, the difference is that you replace me if I'm not in place."

"Every Madam, thank you for believing in me."

"You want to work now what's tomorrow?" tawar Kia's.

"Tomorrow can? I'm going on a date with my boyfriend."

"Happy, I finally have a boyfriend."

The same instant Dharma's phone rang, he immediately received the call.

"Yes Luna, be patient. I'm saying the same thing to Boss."

"Luna ...." Kia called out that name half ridiculously.

Dharma smiled wryly, he immediately left Kia's room before Kia asked her who Luna was. Once in his car Dharma was hit by his lover.

"Why did you say a name! Kia's sister, so it's me!" Luna continued to beat up Dharma.

"And you don't want to be called darling, you say so, try if you want I won't say a name." Dharma defended himself while enduring the blow from Luna.

Luna stopped her punch. "Yes, too, if I may call you dear, so you don't have to say my name." Luna was drowned by his thoughts. "If on the phone and Chat can call dear, but if you talk directly to gini, ordinary."

"Agreed." Dharma was happy, finally being able to call her lover with a call of affection.

At Rachel's school home, Kia's busy work has to stop, she always takes the time to pick up Rachel, and relax for a while wherever Rachel chooses. Now Rachel is choosing a fast food restaurant, one king burger she is enjoying. Kia enjoys French fries.

"Punya Ayah ya bund .." he said a little unclear because the mouth is also busy chewing food.

"Eat properly, not good mouth full but while talking." Kia rubbed the rest of the sausage stuck to the side of Rachel's lips.

Rachel managed to empty her mouth, she stared softly at Kia. "Daddy's good, huh, bund?"

"What's good?"

"Yes mother does not need to be tired of work, mother can focus on me."

"Who said if we had a father our life would be like that?"

"No one said no bun, I only saw the life of Aunty Misye, since she was raising, Aunty is not as busy anymore."

"But mother does not feel tired even though work, not when we are the same mother also work? Your job is easy. Even though you are busy, you are still there for Rachel, the same focus is Rachel, em... is your time for Rachel still lacking?"

Rachel could not answer, because her mother very much lavished her with affection.

"Since Aunty Misye married, and look at Ziel's happiness, I also want to have a new father like Azriel."

As soon as Kia's throat felt tied, she couldn't give Rachel an explanation for her decision to remain alone.

"Good to see Azriel earlier, she was so happy to have Dad again, during Azriel's race with Daddy she was, and I was the same om-" Rachel instantly shut her mouth, she said, he forgot his promise to Indra so as not to tell his mother that Indra who accompanied him the Father and Son race at School.

"Omm?" Kia looked at Rachel full of probing.

"I am not the same race opa, but I invite Indra, said Indra may but do not tell mother." Rachel lowered her head, feeling guilty for unlocking her and Indra's secrets.
