Asena's Revenge
Cem Threats
Asena was standing in front of the terrace of her house, the woman was staring at the sunlight that began to be replaced with moonlight. The time had shown at 08.00 pm but the tough woman was still not home from work it made Asena feel unsettled. Asena paced back and forth with a step that limped the pain in her leg did not care that the woman made her legs look swollen now.
"It's 08:00 at night, but Mama didn't come, did something happen to her?" ask Asena to herself. Asena began to imagine that her mother had an accident and was hospitalized. Asena hastily hit her head so that she realized what she had just thought, should Asena pray Mama is fine and not even imagine such a terrible thing.
Asena's two eyeballs gleamed happily when she saw the middle-aged woman stepping up to her. Sima smiled sweetly staring at her daughter, the woman hid a dizzy feeling in her head. Asena must not know if she has missed lunch and dinner, yes that is the punishment that Yesi has given her.
Yesi asks Sima not to take food from her house even the cruel woman also gives so much work to Sima, the old body as if it can no longer work during the day however, the old body can no longer work during the day, the shadow of Asena who continues to shed tears makes Sima determined to finish his work until now he can set his feet at home with full struggle.
"Darling why are you on the porch? Look at your feet looking swollen like this" exclaimed Sima, who was worried about her daughter and ignored her own pain.
"Asena waited for Mama since then, if only Asena's leg did not hurt then it's been Asena samperin to the workplace Mama," said Asena by embracing her name. Asena felt the body of the woman she loved shake, hurriedly Asena released her embrace and observed her pale-looking face.
"Let's go in now and Mama will give rubbing oil to your feet so as not to get swollen," Sima said. Sima desperately held back his fatigue before Asena for not wanting the princess to feel anxious.
"Why does my face look pale? Is Mama sick now?" asked Asena did not answer the words of her mother instead gave a question.
"Mama is just tired" Sima replied lying. The universe does not seem to support the lie that Asena said and her stomach that has not been filled since last afternoon began to sound making Asena look at her mother with full investigation.
"Hasn't Mama had dinner yet?" ask Asena.
"Of course, where might Mama miss dinner while working," said Sima who did not want her daughter to feel worried about her condition now.
"Mama don't lie to Asena. Did your employer forbid you to eat?" asena asked with a jaw that began to harden with anger.
"Where it might have happened, Mama's employer was so nice that you didn't have to think about that kind of thing. Slandering others is not good, Mama never taught you that, Asena. Now let's go inside and Mama will give rubbing oil to your feet to get well soon" Sima continued trying to distract her daughter.
"Asena will accompany Mama to eat first and treat Asena's legs." Without waiting for an answer from Sima, Asena breezed into the house with a limped step. Sima followed in her daughter's footsteps then raised Asena's hand and placed it on her shoulder.

"I've just arrived, are you still unable to work today?" ask Nana back from across the street.
"My feet still feel pain like tomorrow I can just work," replied Asena honestly. "can you please ask permission so that I can enter work tomorrow and if not then I will force to go to work now still not too late" continued Asena.
"Then I will ask permission for you, I will end the phone call first and I will send the answer via a short message later" said Nana.
"Well, Nana, thank you. You are indeed my reliable best friend," Asena said then ended their phone call.
Asena began to pull her back from the bed rest and then noticed her legs were starting to slowly recover, even the rubbing oil given by her mother was powerful enough to eliminate swelling in her wounds.
If remembering about the mother makes Asena's heart feel sad. What day actually happened at work so that his mother came home hungry and pale? As much as Asena tried to guess, however, she still could not get an answer.
Asena grabs her vibrating phone then opens a short message from Nana saying she can go to work after she recovers. Asena also felt very relieved because it turned out her new employer was very good and also understanding.
Somewhere else.
After returning home from work Sima stopped by the hospital to see the condition of her husband. At this moment the middle-aged woman was sitting on a chair with beads of eyes staring at a man who was lying on the bed.
"You must be very happy to see my condition like this" Cem said with harsh words to Sima.
"Why do I feel happy? But I'm very grateful that I don't have to pay hospital fees" Sima said honestly and as is. Sima did not care if the man in front of him would be angry because for a while Cem would not be able to walk normally, because the guards of Mr. Altair yesterday broke one of his legs. Maybe it is indeed the best for a man who likes to get drunk and also gamble this because at least he will not look for trouble in the near future.
Cem was about to pull his body from the patient's bed to beat up the brash woman in front of him now, but just moved a little Cem was already squealing in pain when he felt his arm throbbing in pain, yes, cem's arm was also broken with a battered face.
"Dare you say bad things about me, you will know the consequences of Sima," Cem said with a threat that Sima could not ignore. It was clearly visible from both hands of Sima who started to sweat coldly with trembling bodies.
Cem pulled one of his devil smiles. You could say he became the lucky man in this world just because it covered one problem Cem could trick his wife to give a lot of money to him without having to work.
