The Suffering of Si Kembang Village
Diverting my world

Nilam went down the steps of the Gavin family's mansion slowly and looked stiff.

"Gav, I'm scared...." He stopped his steps.

"My mom mean?" ask Gavin. He grabbed Nilam's palm which felt cold and sweaty. "Yes, my goodness, Nuri, your palms are sweating like this." Gavin's small oddities pitched mockingly.

"Gav, I'm serious."

"Just calm. There will be me."

"But I'm really scared."

"My mom won't eat you. Come on, my stomach's hungry." Gavin pulled Nilam's arm

to continue the steps down the stairs, towards the dining room.

Nilam followed with doubtful steps.

Arriving at the dinner table. Briana was already perched in her chair. He looked at Nilam not separated with the look of his eagle eyes.

Nilam lowered his head. Briana's sharp gaze made her really uncomfortable.

"Mama saw Nuri as if she was going to eat him alive" said Gavin, pulling one of the chairs.

"Come on Nuri, sit here." He saw Nilam still silent. "Come...." Finally the girl's ass landed on the seat next to her. Because he pulled his arm forcibly.

Gavin poured the dishes available on the table one by one into the plate in front of Nilam. "Eat."

"Thank you" Nilam said softly, forcing a slight smile on the corner of his lips.

"Good meal, Mama." Gavin smiled at his mother.

"Yes, Honey. Good meal," Briana replied.

If you look - look, this girl's face is indeed very beautiful. It was just his strange and ancient appearance. And that veil over his head....

"Nuri's very pretty, isn't she, Ma...?" asked Gavin who saw his mother continue to look at Nilam's face with water face that showed a hint of admiration.

Briana blinked. "A-what do you mean, Gav?"

"From that moment Mama kept looking at Nuri's face. And I see that." Gavin smiled obliquely.

Nilam who was chewing food with embarrassment - shame that, a glance towards Briana.

Yeah, God, why Gavin's mom looks scarier than Pure Aunt.

"You are this.. Where can it be like that? Look at the veil. It's very shady," said Briana Ketus.

Gavin chuckles. "Just as for Mama."

"Mama's gonna find you another prettier, classier woman, Gav."

Hearing Briana's words, Gavin immediately put his spoon and fork on the plate, stopping his eating ritual.

"Don't take care of my personal affairs anymore, Ma. Mama should reflect on past events. Because of Mama, I fell in love and was hurt by the woman that Mama presented in my life at that time. And because of that, too, I was late to pick up the woman I really wanted."

Patchouli a little tesentak hear Gavin's words. For some reason, there was a hint of disappointment in his heart. But hunted - hunted on his shores. He resumed his eating activities to look as if he did not care.

"Woman you want...? Who, Gav? What child of descent? What does his family have business? Is he from this country or not?" Question from Briana.

"Stop, Mom! Stop talking about caste. Because Mama would be surprised, hearing who the woman I want is."

"You mean?"

"She's just an ordinary country girl." Gavin bowed.

Nilam remained in silence. A million questions filled his mind.

And just as Gavin had said, Briana put on a shocked face.

"Village girl? An orphan?" Briana's sight fell on Nilam. "What is this girl, Gav?"

Gavin. Staring at his mother's face, then turned to look at Nilam who was also looking at him. Then shake. "No, Ma. Not Nuri." For some reason, the answer he made, even made his heart pound uncharacteristically.

The look of Nilam's eyes beside her, was like hypnotizing her to continue to lead her to admiration. There was a hissing - a strange hissing that was creeping slowly in his heart. Which he himself did not understand.

*This feeling... Nuri's.... What's wrong with me?

The look in his eyes completely shifted my world*.

Briana catches no unusual look from Gavin's eyes on the girl beside her.

"Well, isn't this girl, Gav?" tanyanya.

Gavin blinked, then turned to look at the mother. "Yes, Ma. She's not. I only knew him yesterday morning. So where could he be." Again, there was a feeling of guilt in Gavin's heart when he said that sentence again.

"Then who?" ask Briana.

"She.... Never mind, Ma. Don't talk about this anymore. Because it's useless he'll never come back."

"I don't know, Ma. I've twice intended to see him. But it never worked. He's gone, somewhere."

"Oh. I see." Briana smiled thinly and at a glance.

In contrast to the relief flush on Briana's face, the look of sadness that Gavin showed, created a sense of compassion in Nilam's heart.

But he remained silent. Because Briana's existence makes her not free to talk.

****

"Aren't you back at the office?" ask Nilam. He and Gavin were in the room again. They sat on a sofa side by side.

"No. I've lost the mood to take care of my work at the office." Gavin leaned his head against the head of the sofa with his eyes closed.

"Is that okay - what?"

"There's my partner over there who's replacing."

"Ooh."

Like getting a fresh breeze, Gavin rose up to re-establish his body. An idea came from inside his big brain. He tilted his body to face Nilam. Then smile grinning.

"Nuri.. starting tomorrow, you work with me in the office."

"Haa...what?!" Nilam surprised.

"Yes, you work as my personal assistant in the office. Take it easy, I'll pay you. That way, you will be able to pay the debt - your debt to me. How's it?"

"Ta-but I don't have that kind of work experience, Gav. Besides, I'm just a high school graduate. It's just a suburban High School. My ability will not come to such a job" Nilam said hesitantly.

"Hey, I didn't ask for your diploma. Your background has no effect on this job."

Nilam frowned confused. He tilted his head a little. "Then, what kind of job are you offering me?"

Gavin put the smirk back on.

"Enough to make me coffee, just clean my room, and accompany me to work."

"Is that all? And just in your room?" tanya Nilam felt strange.

Gavin nodded. "Yes, just in my room. How do you want to?"

Nilam was silent and seemed to be thinking. The decision - nimang.

"Why shut up? Don't you want to?"

"A-i...."

"All right, if you don't want to. You prefer to be here with your mom. Because it's impossible, right, you keep locking yourself inside my room. Mama will definitely break it. And your debt will forever be debt" said Gavin smiling cunningly.

Hearing the name 'mama', Nilam slightly gasped. His forehead is deep.

That's exactly what Gavin said. I could die standing up, if I had to face her creepy mother.

Gavin chuckled little looking at the expression on Nilam's face that was scaring with fear.

"I won't force you."

"No, no. I want to, I want to work in your office" Nilam quickly said.

Gavin sounded louder.

"alright. Deal?" He stretched his hand towards Nilam.

Nilam returned the handsome man's hand. "Deal" said Nilam still looks doubtful.

"Okay, starting tomorrow morning, you come with me to work." Gavin smiled winning.

"But...."

"But, but what?" gavin asked with a look of astonishment.

"Will the people in your office accept me?" ask Nilam to doubt.

"Well...." Gavin's laughter exploded upon hearing the girl's question. "Hey, Nuri. I'm the BOSS! The company is mine. Who will interfere with my will. Hahaha...."

"really?" ask Nilam with his innocent look.

Gavin stopped his laughter. "Yes, Nuri. Ja. You'll be safe with me. Just relax."

"Thank God."
