A PIECE OF PAPER
Episode 43

Alfaro immediately advanced quickly to be in front of Kirana, fearing that something bad would happen to Vaden Fernandez's men to Kirana.

"Take care of your emotions Faro, this is in a public place" Kirana said softly to keep Alfaro awake.

"Hem, calm down" replied Alfaro.

And Vaden Fernandez, who saw the situation was not conducive, immediately ordered his men to leave, as well as himself.

After Vaden Fernandez, the situation slowly returned to normal, the tension that occurred finally disappeared, Hani and Aisyah's mother seemed to take a deep breath, a sign that they had begun to be relieved by the situation that was already safe.

"So that was Vaden Fernandez, a man who was famous for his power and said he was a mafia leader?" Ask Aisyah's mother.

"Truely Ma'am, she is Viona's sister, as well as the person who helped our finances first" said Ronan.

"Help?" Hani Sahut.

"Yes, I mean help by lending money to our company" Ronan said.

"Then he used it to pressure you, did he?" Ask Kirana.

Everyone fell silent, neither Ronan nor Alfaro could say any more words, either, they did not want Aib from his company who was so heavily indebted to Vaden Fernandez to be known by the two women in front of him.

"We should continue this lunch and come back soon" said Aisyah's mother trying to normalize the situation.

Everyone had finished their lunch, and each of them was preparing to take a place to return to work, Alfaro and Ronan all on their leave to head straight to the company. And they split up.

**

As said by Alfaro, after the magrib, he joined Ronan to the Islamic center to relearn the teachings of Islam, until the place, they were welcomed by the administrators there, he said, small conversations and exchanging life experiences make the atmosphere very comfortable, it does not even feel Alfaro and Ronan have been there until almost midnight.

Islamic center managers remind the two to continue their activities tomorrow or at least three days a week.

The journey home was both involved in conversation.

"Alhamdulillah..I feel very comfortable to be there, how about you?" Ask Ronan.

"Of course, I feel very comfortable there, it feels reluctant to get out of the place, it feels peaceful when there" replied Alfaro.

"May we be given the strength to keep Istiqomah in his path, I do not want what we do this time in vain Alfaro, I really want to get his forgiveness"

"Hhhh.I am also Ron, my sin is so much, I even hate HIM because of the death of my family, my eyes are completely blind can not see what is behind all the calamities that I experienced, I can not see, he could even see clearly what God really wanted to show me" Alfaro said with a face full of regret.

"We are grateful that Kirana and Hani are unwittingly participating in the steps we are taking now, frankly I really hope to have a companion like them"

Alfaro was surprised to hear Ronan's words.

"You mean to have them both at once?!" Alfaro's voice shocked Ronan.

"Astagfirullah.of course not Faro.pretty one only.and certainly not Kirana, I know there will be wrath if I have the intention to have it" ronan replied who then laughed seeing the strange expression of his best friend.

"Bas with you!" Said Alfaro who looked annoyed.

That's how these two people who are improving their way of life communicate, both of them even seem like brothers themselves, serious talk that sometimes also makes laughter can always be done wherever they are when together.

**

A week had passed, and everything was still going as usual, the cooperation between Alfaro, Kirana and also Aisyah's mother made the prestige of their company and agency even more soaring and famous, of course, the profit he received was very good.

Likewise with Vaden Fernandez, who has now devised a plan to destroy the Alfaro company.

"Sorry sir, Mr. Vaden Fernandez wants to see you" Alfaro's secretary said that afternoon.

"Well, let me in" he said, and then Vaden Fernandez stepped in and sat down in front of Alfaro.

"I want to take my money, and prepare it immediately" said Vaden without further ado.

"I'm sorry, didn't I say another month, and it's still one Sunday Mr. Vaden" Alfaro replied.

"I don't care, I want one more week, my money back, otherwise I'll do something you can't imagine" Vaden said with a very serious eye.

"You've gone mad.!, how could I possibly pay that much debt in a week from now, that's impossible and just as you would like to emphasize.yes right?!" Alfaro said that started to get emotional.

"Let's just calm down Alfaro..all I can consider if you want to go back with Viona, it's pretty easy isn't it?"

"What, you nutcase!, there's no way I'm going back to Viona, you think the heart is tradeable.??, after all our relationship is over and I don't want to deal with you guys anymore" sahut Alfaro's.

"Well, then pay your debt, I wait another week, it's easy." said Vaden with a slanted smile.

Alfaro was speechless, he really wanted to throw the obnoxious man in front of him at the moment, but of course it could not be done. Alfaro could only be privileged to control his emotions.

Until then Vaden Fernandez laughed with satisfaction while walking out of the workspace Alfaro, immediately Alfaro called Ronan to come to his room.

"What's wrong?" Ask Ronan.

"I'm determined to sell everything Ron, I don't want to live under that madman's pressure anymore" Alfaro said.

"You mean Vaden Fernandez?"

"Yes, he just came here and gave me a week to ask for his money back" alfaro replied

"What!!, is he out of his mind, you bastard!!" Ronan was surprised.

Alfaro immediately told Ronan and several people to sell all of his assets in the next week, and from the estimated calculation, the possibility of SEM Agency will be sold to add to the lack of money to be paid.

"Stay at my house, I will start moving tomorrow from the Apartment because there is a good offer, and from now on we use a simple car" said Ronan.

"What?!, you mean?" Alfaro asked in surprise.

"I'm selling my apartment to help you, there's a pretty big house I've got, we're gonna live there, not too fancy, but pretty big for both of us to live in"

"What are you talking about, don't sell your apartment, I'll rent an Apartment, and let me use our old car first, you can use your luxury car" said Alfaro.

"No, I'm going to sell three of my luxury cars as well to add to the money we're going to pay to recoup the debt, and our old car that I used to take good care of, that we can use" ronan said that made Alfaro very surprised by his Friend's decision.

"You mean?"

"Here, don't be surprised like that, we started from Zero together, now we'll do the same, no rejection or I'll leave you, understand?!" Said Ronan and made Alfaro who still did not believe the decision of his Friend, just nodded resignedly.

From that day on, all assets are sold as soon as possible to raise enough funds to pay the remaining debt.

Seriate.
