The sun appeared to publish its light; Eve began to wake up. Eve stretched the muscles of her body that felt sore and stiff all over.
Eve tried to wake up her sister, Adeline. "Al, wake up! Al, we have to go now!They walked to the city centre, where they walked to a park and found a toilet to freshen up and change clothes. Before looking for work, Eve asked Adeline to wait in a park near a row of office centres and shops.Eve bought her breakfast and a drink of water and gave her a few dollars to keep watch. Eve asked her to wait until she came after getting a job.Only then would Eve figure out how to find a place to live. She should sell her favourite watch this time; it was the only precious thing she had left.It was noon, but Eve hadn't found a job yet and needed clarification. She was sweating from looking for a job all morning, and her legs started hurting from exhaustion.Finally, on the corner, Eve saw a cafe. She walked there to buy a piece of bread and hot chocolate to feed her hungry stomach."Hey! You!" someone shouted. A man around 25-26 years old, Eve doesn't know. He was pointing at Eve.Eve began to frown, "Me?" she asked, pointing at herself."Yes, you! Who else? Why are you coming so late? Look at the people waiting! Lunchtime is always crowded, but thank goodness you came! Put this on and go backwards!" said the handsome man.Eve paused, "But I'm...not..." Holding the apron, he gave her in confusion."You need a job, don't you? Hurry back, I don't have time to explain it to you! If you can handle it, then you're hired, OK? Your working hours are 9 am to 5 pm and you'll get 50 dollars a day, no weekends off. You can take off on weekdays. How about it?""Yes, but..." Eve was still hesitant because she hadn't applied here, but perhaps the person had mistaken her for someone else."There's no buts! Don't you want to?" he shouted with quite a high intonation.Eve finally shouted, "I want to! I want!"And so she worked that day, but a little longer this time. She was asked to work overtime until 6 pm as more and more customers arrived.Eve worked so energetically that day that she didn't even notice that her legs were in much pain. She even forgot about her sadness for a moment."This is your wage today. You were given an extra 80 dollars today because you worked overtime for 3 hours," said the owner and manager of the Cafe when he called her.Eve burst into tears, sobbing in her chair. She had only felt 80 dollars, even after working almost all day. It turns out that making money is not easy, and she felt it this time."Why are you crying? Is it not enough?"Eve shook her head. The first time, she received this little money, but it's worth it now with tears still in her eyes."What does that mean?" The Boss needed clarification."No! I meant to say thank you. I'll come again tomorrow!" Eve said, diverting their conversation."Okay. By the way, did you bring your ID? I didn't get a chance to ask for it earlier."Eve reached into the small bag and handed over her ID."Evelyn Adams? Not Selin Pattinson? So who are you, Selin?" the Boss frowned.Eve shook her head, "I don't know you, Sir. Please don't fire me, I need this job." Eve pleaded."But..." suddenly the mobile phone rang. "Wait a minute, I'll be back."Not long after, the Boss returned. "Whether it's a coincidence or luck, I just got news that...Miss Selin resigned from applying for this job. So, if you're willing, you can keep working here," with a warm smile."So congratulations on working at Cafe Mentari! I'm Damian, the owner of this little Cafe!" he extended his hand."I'm Eve, Evelyn. Thank you. I will definitely work very hard." Eve extended her hand back."Well, Eve, I believe you and I've seen your work too! Oh, yes, where do you live? Wait, your ID says it's in the Wellington area? Wow! Are you sure your house is there? I don't think you need this job if you live there, do you?" he said as if scrutinizing Eve's appearance."I just lost both my parents, Sir. And, we were kicked out of our house by our Uncle, that's why I need this job. I still have a younger sister to look after." Eve looked down sadly as her tears began to flow."Oh, sorry Eve. I didn't know. Sorry for the loss of your parents." Damian felt sorry for her."Thank you, Sir." Eve said, still choked up."OK, if there's anything I can help you with, just tell me. Where do you live now?" Eve hesitated but said with her head down, "I don't know yet, Sir. We don't have enough money to rent an apartment.""So, where did you sleep yesterday?" he said, slightly surprised.Eve looked at her Boss and said quietly, "In the tunnel near Pittsburgh Street, sir!" while keeping her head down."What? In the tunnel? No! No! You're young girls; it's dangerous to sleep there. Tell you what, I have a pavilion next to this Cafe. It's a little small but was originally a warehouse for the Cafe's raw materials. How about you and your sister staying there? You can clean it up for a while, but it's better than being on the street, right?Eve raised her head, her eyes filled with tears again, Eve sobbed, her cries growing louder.'" Why are you crying again? Did I say something wrong?"Eve shook her head, "No, thank you, sir. When you were kicked out by our only family, our uncle! It turns out that God is still kind to us by giving us you as our helper! You, who are an unfortunate person, reached out your hand to help us! Thank you, sir. Thank you so much!" Eve grabbed Damian."Never mind! I'm only helping a little as a fellow human! Don't overdo it, like this!" Damian smiled warmly."Thank you again, Sir, thank you. I'll clean the room later!" Eve exclaimed while wiping her tears."Alright, I'll hand the key to you. You want to pick up your sister? Oh, yes, where is your sister now?" the Boss asked again."She's just down the road sir, near the park." Eve said happily.Mr Damian kindly offered to help him clean up the warehouse later so they could get to bed quickly tonight. And meet Adeline, Eve's sister.But to her surprise, when she reached the park, there was a crowd of people where she had asked her sister to stay. Her heart started to feel bad now."Adeline!!!""Eve, we need to get your sister to the hospital! Immediately!" said the Boss, Damian."But..." Eve hesitated as she didn't have any funds at the moment."Don't think about anything else, I'll take care of the cost! What's important is that your sister gets treated right away! Hurry up, Eve! We don't have much time! Let me carry your sister! My car is over there!" Damian said again.And here they were in a big hospital, accompanied by Damian. The Doctor was treating Adeline in the emergency department, and Eve was walking back and forth in front of Adeline's treatment.After waiting for several hours, a doctor emerged from Adeline's treatment."Adeline's family?""I'm her sister, Doc! What's wrong with my sister?" Eve was nervous."Sorry, we have to tell you. We suspect liver cancer! But we'll do a series of tests to confirm it." said the Doctor."WHAT? Liver cancer?""Liver Cancer? No way! Tell me it's all a lie, Doc! You might be wrong, Doc! It's definitely not true! My sister is just tired!" Eve shouted as she grabbed the Doctor by the collar.Exhausted, Eve finally broke down and collapsed on the cold hospital floor as she cried.Just as she felt a little happy for accepting work today, she thought things would be better after getting a job.Damian helped Eve finalize everything, including Adeline's payment.Damian was still with Eve, who was waiting for her sister to wake up. He couldn't bear to leave her.Eve didn't say much, preferring to stay quiet and lost in her thoughts.Eve looked at Damian, who seemed tired; she didn't want to impose her will on the Boss to stand by her side."Sir, isn't it better for you to go home? I can wait for my sister here. I know you are tired. I thank you for your help. I don't know what would have happened to both of us if you hadn't helped us. I promise to return the money you spent to pay for my sister's tre
Eve began to wriggle out of her short sleep. Since she had been thinking about it last night, she would try to ask her lover for help even though her messages and phone were not answered all night, and Eve thought that Robert was busy.He intended to go to the college today. Not going to study as usual, she decided to continue her studies when she had enough money. She was going to meet Robert at the college!Saying goodbye to Adeline, Eve travelled by public transport to the campus.She had done it for the first time and might have to get used to it from now on.When she arrived at the gate of her campus, she felt something strange. Everyone who knew her began to avoid her; some stayed away, some pretended to be indifferent, but more looked at her with a look of pity in their eyes."What's going on? What's going on? What are all those eyes looking at me for? Am I smelly and dirty?" she smelled the scent of her body. No odour! And not dirty either, because she had showered and changed
Eve looked down at her body, there was nothing missing either. So she wasn't hurt? She's still alive? But just now, wasn't there a car passing by? And Then, what happened?Eve turned her head towards a fairly luxurious car, looking at it sadly. She was afraid, afraid that the car would be damaged due to her lack of caution earlier. "What if this car is damaged or scuffed, due to being hit by me, maybe? Then I'll have to pay for the car's repairs? What about this? I don't have the money to pay for it! What if the owner gets angry and complains to the police, and I'm arrested and imprisoned, what will happen to Adeline? My God, what kind of ordeal is this? Why does bad luck always accompany my steps? Help me, O God!" Eve whispered worriedly in her heart as she bent down to look at the car, to find the damage."Hey! What are you doing? You want to die, huh?" said a beautiful girl dressed in a rather sexy outfit coming out of the car while ruffling her waist.Eve didn't listen to her, she
Eve blinked her eyes in disbelief at what she had just heard, an old friend offering to help. Maira wanted to help her? She could hardly believe it. In the midst of her confusion about all the problems that were choking her that made her chest hurt, Maira's help was like an oasis in the desert. Her burden seemed to be lifted from her shoulders. And she didn't expect it to come from a friend she hadn't even seen in a long time. Eve felt very grateful to God for helping her by sending Maira to her. "Really?" Eve took her best friend's hand and started kissing it "Thank you, Mai! I promise to return it to you as soon as possible! I promise!" she continued kissing the back of her hand with emotion. Eve even stood up to hug her little friend. "Never mind! Remember! Later tonight! I'll introduce you to someone who will help you! He's a close friend of mine! You can rest easy! Some of my funds are used with him for business so, well...we have to get his approval too! But don't worry, he'll
Man entered and walked slowly, then bent down and looked at Eve while caressing her smooth face. Then moved on to her exposed thighs. "Get your smelly hands off my body! Or...I'll.." Eve began to get emotional and tremble with fear. "Haha...Or what? What are you going to do, beautiful? Scream? This room is soundproof, your screams won't be heard! So, just enjoy this night...I'm very curious, it says you're a virgin, right? And I paid good money for it! So I should enjoy it!" still holding Eve's jaw roughly. "Paid? I didn't sell myself! You must be wrong! I'm here with my friend, and she wants to see me with her best friend she's going to..." Eve started to panic and moved her face away from the man. The man was actually quite handsome, but very rude and Eve didn't like it. "Yeah, yeah. Just keep bragging. Oh, yeah that friend of yours you mentioned earlier? Maira, she's the one who offered you to me at a fantastic price because she said you were still unexplored! Is that true?" wit
Everyone there turned their heads towards the handsome unknown man.Someone who deliberately ruined their fun. Including Eve who saw him, feeling she could rely on that person for help."Sir, help me! They want to harass me! Help! My friend sold me! Please, sir!" Eve began to plead, she didn't care who the man was, she just wanted to get out of here, even if she had to plead pleadingly to the unknown man, she would do it."Shut up!" the big man said as he slightly shook Eve's body that was carried like a sack of rice on his shoulders."Hey! You! Let her talk! You guys are so noisy!" he angrily pointed his index finger at Eve. "Explain why you're on his shoulders, what are you saying? Are you stupid or what? So you didn't realise you were being sold?" the man looked at the girl irritably. And then looked at the well-dressed man who seemed to know her."Put her down! I said put her down!" he glared fiercely.The two men stared at each other and sought the approval of Andrew MacGuire who
Allan frowned with confusion looking straight at his best friend Tom."What idea? About?" asked Allan, not understanding."Have you forgotten your problem? The problem you just told me about a few hours ago? At the club?" Tom looked at his best friend while holding his upper hand and a little tighter.Allan tried to recall the events of the past few days with the grandfather who was the source of his problems. As well as the conversation he had with Tom a few hours ago in that luxurious club in the Wellington area.Flash back on a few days agoAllan Watson was 28 years old. Allan is the only grandson of the Watson family.Life for Allan was work-work and work. He has no time for a lover or a girlfriend.Love for Allan was nonsense! There is no such thing as love! There is only the natural reaction of attraction! Lust!All of course because of his bad memories with someone, which made him hurt.Allan began to like his free life as it is today. And Allan never felt lonely either!For All
" You're crazy, huh?" Allan repeated his shout with great emotion.Tom who was listening to him covered his ears instantly, "You're the crazy one! Don't shout! I'm not deaf! Be quiet, be quiet! The girl will wake up!"The annoyed Allan did not answer with a face full of anger, he pulled his best friend's shirt collar out of the room. And dragged him to the living room where there was a large television, so as to be a little far from his bedroom. So as not to wake up a girl who was currently still in a stupor."Hey! Take off my shirt! You're ruining it, you know that!" Tom roughly pushed Allan's hand away from his slightly stretched collar, "Look! My shirt is ruined!" he said back in annoyance."I'll replace it! If necessary a thousand times over!" Allan exhaled roughly."I know, you can do it! But there's no need to be so arrogant!" Tom said with a sardonic smile."I'm not arrogant! But that's the truth!" retorted Allan as he crossed his arms over his chest."Ok! Ok! But will you liste
