Laura, Maria's mother and Lily's aunt are in the living room. They await the arrival of Melissa the loan shark.

A knock was heard on the door of the living room, seen the gardener of the home came to deliver guests.

"Mother Lily, this is a guest for Maria's mother" said Mr. Toto

"Please come in, ma'am" Aunt Lily welcomes mistress Melissa to the door.

In her haughty style, Melissa went into the living room with her aide Anwar. They approached Maria's mother and Laura who were sitting on the sofa.

"Please sit down, ma'am, sir" Aunt Lily said politely

"Want to drink what madam ? Ask again.

"No need for pleasantries, I'm here to take my money, not for a drink. Don't you guys not have that money yet, so stalling my time?" Miss Melissa said

"Hahhh." before starting to talk Laura first sighed.

"Mrs take it easy, we've got the money, we're just practicing courtesy to our guests, so we're offering you a drink".

"Well, sweet girl, it turns out you're good at talking yes". Madame Melissa smiled cynically.

"Where's the money? If you already have. I don't have much time to linger here".

Laura took the bag from under the table, and placed it on the table. Open the zipper bag, and look at the money in large quantities.

Madame Melissa's eyes sparkled at the amount of money, as her hand reached out to grab the bag. But not until the hand of Miss Melissa, the bag was pulled again by Laura.

"Not so fast, madam. Before this money moves into your hands, please first hand over the land certificate of this home". Laura said firmly.

"Wow.You're a really smart kid, sweet girl. Heh..of course I will return the certificate of this land, there is no use for me as well".

Meliasa told Anwar to return the certificate. Anwar opened the bag he was carrying. Then take out a map from the bag.

"As I did earlier, please open the map, and show us. I don't want to be deceived". Laura spoke again

Anwar turned to his mistress, and Melissa nodded her head.

Then Anwar opened the map, and pointed out the contents. Seen the certificate of the home ground in the map.

"You've seen no, it's still the same content that your mother brought to me, even the map is still the same". Said Miss Melissa.

"alright". Laura put the bag of money back on the table. "We do it now, sir please give the certificate to my mother, and I'll give this bag to your mistress". Laura said to Anwar.

"Sure miss" said Anwar

Transactions ensued, with teary eyes, Maria's mother received a map containing a certificate of land for the home. And with sparkling eyes, mistress Melissa received a bag of money.

"Thank you Maria, if this has been the case, I don't have to be angry with you. Next time you need another loan, come back to me. My address is still the one". Miss Melissa said

"Well, you're a very smart girl. It's lucky Maria has a daughter like you".

"I'm lucky madam, God gave me a girl who loved her parents very much". Saut Maria's mother who had just been silent.

"Well, then I go home first Maria, I still have other business. Come on Anwar let's go home".

"Let's madam". Anwar follows his employer to his feet and leaves the parlor's living room, with Lily's aunt in tow.

*****

Maria's mother still faithfully looked at the certificate, she felt guilty to her two best friends, namely Laura's parents. She almost lost the orphanage that she and Laura's parents founded for 16 years.

"Mom.." Laura disperse the reverie of Maria's mother.

"Son.mom feels guilty to both of your parents. If this home had been taken by someone, what would you say to your parents? They're gonna be so mad at mommy". Mary's mother came back crying.

Laura hugged her mother, "lt's mom, don't think about it. Now it's all done. The place is safe. I beg you to keep this certificate well. If someday you need money, please tell me Mom. I'll make money for you guys. Don't borrow money from a loan shark anymore. I beg".

"Yes son. forgive mom".

"Mary, drink this, I'll make you some warm tea. La, auntie made it for you too". Aunt Lily came with three cups of warm tea.

"Thank bi". Laura received the teacup. Put one in front of Mary's mother, and take another for her.

"Are you back in town now?"

"Sir. that.."

"That's what Ara? Don't tell me you're not going back to town? If that happens, see what I can do to your orphanage". Edward's voice sounded hostile.

"Hwm..." Laura breathed a rough sigh. "Sir I mean to call you, I want permission, may I spend my time today at the parlour ? I promise tomorrow morning I'll be back in town and straight to your penthouse".

"really so? You didn't mean to lie to me, did you?"

"Sir.I know who I'm dealing with right now. Even though I hid in an ant pit, you must have found me, right?"
