Jesica Klitta approached Mikha with a sharp gaze like an unsheathed sword ready to slash her enemy's neck.
“Tell me again, what do you mean?” Jesica demanded while standing right in front of Mikha who was silent on the spot.
“That, you will know when you come there. You see, that girl looks a lot like someone we knew seventeen years ago. I don't know what the connection is, but I'm sure that girl –”
"Stop it!" Jesica exclaimed sharply. "That's not possible. How could someone who died –”
"That!" Mikha reached out. “I came to make sure what you did was finished or not. But wouldn't it be a problem if it turned out you left something behind?”
"Like what?" Jesica looked at Mikha sharply and drew a knife but Mikha didn't look afraid, he looked back at Jesica.
“Like, sister, maybe,” Mikha answered.
Jesica's body froze in place. No, not afraid, but angry. In Jesica's heart there was no sympathy anymore since seventeen years ago she was involved in an incident that started by accident. Jesica was determined to get Edwin, and even now she still maintains that determination. However, it turns out that Jesica was careless in paying attention to Edwin. The man is married now.
"Fuck!" shouted the woman while pounding the dining table. Luckily the dining table material was strong enough to withstand this small blow.
Jesica's hands were clenched tightly, imagining the figure from seventeen years ago coming back again and even being so close to the man she loved, how could Jesica not get an? gry?
“You came just for that?” Jessica asked.
"I wanted to make sure you got the job done, but you left behind a residue. Did you know that karma might work?”
"Damn you, Mikha!" Jesica quickly grabbed Mikha's collar, gripped it tightly, and stared intently into Mikha's eyes which remained calm even though his neck was being strangled. “You thought you could get away with it, huh? Aren't you also involved?" Jessica answered.
“Yeah, so what? I didn't stain my hands with blood. I am only a witness, and that can lighten my sentence," said Mikha confidently.
"Fuck!" Jesica cursed again while releasing her grip on Mikha's neck roughly.
Mikha coughed, rubbed his red neck, and breathed quickly. Jesica almost killed him.
"Helen!" Jesica's jaw was clenched tightly, her fists clenched, and her eyes burned with the fire of hatred. “Wait. I will eliminate you a second time!” Jesica said with a very strong oath.
Meanwhile, Mikha was silent when he heard what Jesica was planning, Micah didn't care. What the girl cared about was that Edwin's wife had disappeared and Mikha could replace her. Jesica was only a small threat to Mikha, but he provoked Jesica for his benefit.
Meanwhile, Jesica went to her room and threw Mikha somewhere else. Aneska went back for a walk with Kira. This time it wasn't to a mall or other large shopping center. Kira's face seemed to glow with happiness and made Aneska want to know what happened.
But Aneska didn't ask, her attention was focused on the beautiful view outside. They had been driving for more than two hours on a deserted road, and the number of vehicles was getting fewer and fewer. Aneska wanted to know where Kira was taking her, but Wabita only said that it was a secret.
"Beautiful," said Aneska quietly when the sun had risen over the western horizon, preparing to say goodbye to the universe at noon.
"You like?" Kira asked.
"This calms me down," Aneska answered, directing her gaze fully at the twilight.
"That's right. This area is still natural because it is rural, but that doesn't mean it is isolated. There are many gardens, rice fields, and other fields that are abandoned in the area, but the natural scenery is still beautiful," concluded Kira while looking at the sunset.
"You seem to pass through this area quite often?" Aneska asked while turning her attention to Kira.
The woman who had been Aneska's mother-in-law for the past few days nodded her head.
“Yeah, I've done it quite often, but when I have time. I deliberately make a schedule to visit different places. Next time I'll take you somewhere else too," said Kira.
“Ah, that's not necessary. I'm worried it will be a hassle," said Aneska.
Kira looked at Aneska, frowning slightly.
"Of course not, I'm happy because someone accompanied me this time. So, please accompany me on this path of life, even though Edwin is busy," said Kira.
Aneska looked at Kira when Edwin's name was mentioned.
"Ah yes, sometimes Edwin is very protective of things that make him comfortable, or things that belong to him. "Edwin will look after him carefully, no matter how much danger he faces," explained Kira.
Aneska was silent when she heard this. Is that why Edwin stayed by Aneska's side last night, and the other night when Aneska passed out in her room? A smile appeared on Aneska's face.
Recently, Aneska felt a little strange when she realized the comfort that Edwin offered. Unexpectedly, Aneska accepted it without rejection, but it was still not easy to get rid of the doubts in the girl's heart. The past is still like a nightmare for Aneska, making the girl unable to accept love easily. Maybe when it's comfortable, love will come later. However, there must be a test.
The car started to enter a fairly large yard with an old cottage in front of it. Children who were playing scattered when the car stopped. As if knowing who was coming, the children approached the car, and Kira came out to greet him very warmly.
Aneska followed from behind, the girl's attention was diverted to a sign that said the name of the place. Kira took Aneska to an orphanage.
Not only Kira, but Aneska also received a warm welcome, even the children gathered together in surprise. Their innocent gazes made Aneska smile softly. The children greeted him and called Mrs. Kira. Kira kissed the children one by one.
Aneska's attention was diverted again when someone pulled Aneska's clothes.
"Whose old sister?" asked a small girl as tall as Aneska's waist.
Smiling, Aneska squatted in front of the girl.
“Hello, my name is Aneska. What's your name?" asked Aneska.
"Amelia," answered the girl.
"Hello Amelia, nice to meet you," said Aneska, extending her hand to the girl.
"Hello."
Not only Amelia, but one by one the other girls and boys are also starting to get to know Aneska, and Kira says that from today Aneska will also be part of the family. The children cheered happily to welcome his arrival.
The management invited Aneska and Kira to enter the hut which looked old but was very well maintained.
Aneska now knows how much she loves Kira. Luggage from the car was unloaded by the guards, children scrambled to take toys, clothes, and so on. Even though it was fun, something was bothering Aneska.
"Why?" An old woman standing next to Aneska asked after noticing the change in Aneska's expression.
"Oh no. "Suddenly I thought, it would be better for them to be given things that match their names, so they don't have to fight," said Aneska.
The old woman who introduced herself as the director of the orphanage welcomed what Aneska said. Even though she didn't expect it, Aneska was happy.
Sitting in her place, Aneska noticed the warmth of the children and triggered memories of a small family together in the past.
