It all started with a job offer given by More Hendra's late wife. I thought his intent and purpose was to make friendship with me, it was pure. However, I know he wants me as a replacement she is Hendra's wife. The facts began to come to light and the news of the affair made me doubt more and more. I was determined to continue living my life as usual, until fate brought me together with another man. My wrong decision has caused me so much pain. Within two days of my marriage, suddenly a woman came and threw the test and also the results of the obstetric examination, begging for my mercy. What am I supposed to do?
I saw the sun rise this morning. It is very beautiful, its radiance is able to make anyone smile. However, not for me, it only took five minutes, the smile faded again.
It's time for me to start living the life I deserve. Make friends with time and also busyness as a restaurant employee. It does not tire me, sometimes I also want a vacation, so that I can pamper myself for a while. However, it seems that circumstances do not allow it.
My name is Arletta, isn't it beautiful? However, my fate is not as beautiful as my name, and my face is even worse than everything. I used to get bullied in school. It was a wonderful time and I could enjoy it.
Never mind, I usually go to restaurants early in the morning, sometimes at six I already leave. In addition to the location that is quite far from my house, I also always get a task before the main task at the restaurant.
To be honest, I'm tired, walking to that place, sometimes if after payday, I just ride angkot. But for the sake of rice, I'll do that.
I lived with my mother, a tough woman who I thought was as beautiful as the Pacific Ocean. I was often compared to my neighbors. Many say my mother used to be very beautiful, like a blooming village flower.
The skin is white, the nose is sharp and also very friendly. However, it's very different from me. If my mother is heaven, then I am earth. We are so much different.
I have black skin, a body that is not too high, a nose that is not sharp, and also heh that I must have always hated by my friends during school. If when I was born, there was a free plastic surgery I would immediately scream when the baby to the mother to be made beautiful.
"Arletta!"that scream shattered my daydreams. I was late, so I packed everything I had.
"He said he wants to go to work, why is he still here?"Mom's question can only be answered with a smile.
"Yes, Mother. Just now Arletta fantasized about crossing the sun."I carried my bag, then approached the mother who looked sullen.
"If you cross the sun, you will burn. What a freak you are."I smiled.
"Mom, there are no activities today. Stay at home, mom. Don't go anywhere, the neighbors will ask."Mom linked her eyebrows while looking at me.
"I have a washing order from Mrs. Lurah. I think after that mom returned home."I immediately welcomed the hand of the woman in front of me. He ran out after saying hello.
Huh, I should have gotten up earlier, at least I could have enjoyed the cold by myself. However, because of the oversleep instead of the cold I got. Except for the morning heat.
"15 thousand," I said. Pocket money that should be enough for the next five days. I wonder if I'll actually go to the restaurant on foot, at this hour.
My pace is getting weaker, energy is draining due to the increasingly hot weather. Not to mention that when I arrive at the restaurant, I will definitely get omprengan from the boss. I shudder to think of all that.
'Oh my God Arletta, why did you have to look at her so early? Just practice towards the terminal, then take angkot.'
When I arrived at the terminal, I was surprised that all angkot had gone and now only I was left looking incredulous. I can't believe I'm walking so far from where I am right now.
"Ah shit...shit.. Why did you have to oversleep Arletta?"I walked quickly back to the restaurant. Although the chances of getting there quickly were slim, I tried to remain confident. No matter the boss's scolding that will penetrate my sense of hearing, what is clear is that I must arrive soon and my absences must not be empty.
TINNNN
I was surprised to see a car parked next to me. Oddly enough, I looked around, like there was no one there. I walked back, pretending I didn't know. However, a man got out of the car, along with a woman.
The woman looked a little pale, and her husband held her slowly.
"Where are you going, Arletta?"asked Diana. The woman had been sick for a year. Perhaps God is testing her patience.
"Mom, Mom, I want to go to a restaurant. Diana's going to check it out, right?"I asked hopefully. Diana's face just shrugged.
"Let's go together, Hendra, you sure don't mind, right?"I was wide-eyed, one car with Ms. Diana and Mas Hendra. It's not that I don't like it. It's just that I don't want to have to trouble people as good as them.
"But, Ma'am. The restaurant will be here soon."I smiled.
"Never mind, you have to come, the location of your workplace is still very far away, if you continue to walk under the hot sun your skin will get burned," replied Ms. Diana while chuckling. I used to joke with him on the phone. Sometimes Ms. Diana needs the services of her mother to wash the scrub in her house.
I don't even know if Diana is sick? It just seems that the pain he experienced was not ordinary pain. I think all rich people do have weird pains.
"Are you going to kill Arletta?"I asked a little hesitantly.
"Not really."
After I got in the car, it turned out Ms. Diana was sitting next to me, precisely in the back seat. Her husband did not make a sound at all. Like the rumors that are often heard Mas Hendra is a little quiet, moreover, his work is quite busy in the workshop.
Ms. Diana and Mrs. Hendra have a special workshop for racing car variations, sometimes also many sports cars that she handles. In addition, Ms. Diana also took care of three branches of the cafe, which unfortunately there were no vacancies at that time. I signed up, but because all the employees had their own place, I was offered to work at his house. However, I refused.
Maybe that's why Ms. Diana has a lot of thoughts and fatigue. I hear sick people should get plenty of rest. However, Ms. Diana always took the time every day to come to the cafe. Many times he had to be treated because the disease suddenly recurred. However, Ms. Diana never seemed to recover from it.
"Ar, I really want to talk to you, but I really hope you answer this time."I was surprised, my hand was suddenly grasped by him.
"Mom, What are you going to say?"I asked.
"I want you to accept my offer this time."I was beginning to wonder what Diana really wanted to say.
"Arletta will try Ma'am, if it is suitable Arletta will agree, if not yes already."Diana took a deep breath.
"Working at home, arr. Only you can believe, you will conduct an intensive examination in Singapore, and Mas Hendra will be alone at home. Can you come every morning to pack the house, and prepare breakfast for him. Ma'am, please Ar, maybe this is the only devotion you have to Mas Hendra while in Singapore."I was very surprised, actually sakura what was experienced by Ms. Diana until she had to travel to another country for examination.
"Miss, Arletta is impossible," I said slowly, then lowered my head.
"This may sound strange, but seriously, Man. Mbak will go to Singapore with Mama, and Mama-in-law, and Mas Hendra will stay here, he has a lot of things to take care of."The car stopped at the same time as Ms. Diana's speech stopped.
"Think carefully Ar, if you still want to work in the restaurant is not a problem. You can stay at home, and you can do your homework at dawn."I was more surprised by the strange offer given by Ms. Diana.
The husband was silent when his wife was negotiating with me, what was in Mas Hendra's brain at this time. The man without expression faithfully waited for me to come out.
"Mom, thanks for the ride. Arletta comes out first, Arletta will think about it later."
Maybe that's all I can give Diana. I wondered why she wanted me to work at her house.
As the car drove away, I looked at the remaining smoke dust for a moment, then I entered the restaurant.
My mind still can't concentrate because of Ms. Diana's request. The woman may be in a lot of thoughts so as to say impossible things like this.
I've also read a lot of books on the subject, but I'm not afraid to ask Diana if she wants to marry me. Wait? Thought of where it was, Arletta.
I was really confused to start a job in a restaurant only I was confused, when all my friends had started busy delivering orders, and taking new orders. I still sit with my hands on my head, like a boss with a lot of thoughts. Lucky when I came the boss was still on his way. I'm safe, when no one's touching me.
"Arletta, Hey why are you so dumb. Our work sucks."I smiled as I woke up.
"I forgot, did the boss not come this morning?"I asked hopefully.
"I don't know, but in grub you don't read. The boss is here?"I linked eyebrows. Then open an old-school phone that only had spare parts in its heyday. That's right, my type of phone is a very old one. Just to find the case or antigores, I have to go around e-commerce, looking for the right one and also cheap.
"Ah, yes. My phone died last night."I smiled bitterly.
"Yes, now we want to get rid of all this work, many guests come."I immediately nodded.
The work started, however, I had to forget for a moment about the offer given by Ms. Diana. The offer takes time to be approved. I also have to ask my mom first. It all started with my mom, and I finally made the right decision.
When it comes to money, who wouldn't. Even finding a job in today's era is very difficult, working part-time at Ms. Diana's House is not a problem. I can earn extra monthly fees and can also snack.
"Arletta, what are you doing?"
