SHOULD I GOUGE OUT THEIR EYES?

Siska returns home in a state of disarray, her clothes have been soiled by a coffee spill that Gina splashed over her head

"Gina! You don't get excited just yet. I'll pay you back. See you later, when the engagement is over, I'll be back to making you the subject of a lot of talks!"

An annoyed Siska blows away the stuff on her dresser until it's all strewn on the floor

"What's going on, honey? Why do you look so messy, and this is why you destroyed all the stuff in your room?"

Riska who heard the commotion from her daughter's room rushed into Siska's room and her gaze swept across Siska's weighted body than on all the items scattered on the floor

"It's all because of Gina mom. She dared to spill coffee on my head and then just left me alone. Let me imagine how embarrassed I am! Everyone was staring at me. Lucky I was wearing a hat. Otherwise, my name will be in the headlines tomorrow morning as a model as well as a bad-looking businesswoman. I can't accept mom, I have to avenge my shame on Gina!"

Siska who is emotionally telling stories with anger

"You just calm down. We will surely repay you!"

The mother and son showed a sharp, hateful stare

"Oh yes, mom. There's something wrong with Gina. Looks like she's in a close relationship with someone rich. Yesterday when Riko and I accidentally met her in the park, she used an expensive sports car with a woman who dressed up as a waitress accompanying her to even call Gina a mistress. That's when we finished talking he left the restaurant in an expensive Rolls Royce. But who in this town can use a luxury car worth tens of billions? What's more, it's a limited edition car, "Siska tells a story with a face of disbelief.

"Before I heard that a young businessman from abroad came here. Do you think Gina may know the young businessman? The young entrepreneur is quite influential abroad because, at the age of 3, he has successfully developed his business abroad. I hear now she's trying to grow her business here" Riska explained what she heard from her friends' mothers.

"Really mom? If we can get close to him, I think that would be good for our company. Is it true?"

"You're right, honey. We need to find out about that guy, it looks like he's richer than Riko.

"I'm going to ask someone to keep an eye on her. Mom take it easy!"

*****

Gina and Yudha arrive at the mall after a considerable journey from the restaurant where Gina and Siska met. Yudha comes out first after that and then she helps Gina open the car door for her. Wearing a casual suit in the form of a plain T-shirt with a collar that showed off his arm muscles, paired with dark blue jeans, yudha loafers shoes looked very charismatic

"Please my lady!"

Yudha opened the door and extended her hand. Gina welcomes Yudha's helping hand

"How can you be this sweet? Have you done the same thing to women other than me before?" Gina asks with a squint as if suspicious of Yudha

"Of course not. Because you are the only one I have done well besides my grandmother and my late mother" Yudha replied with her proud tone.

"Really? I can't believe what you just said.

They chatted as they walked into the mall. Gina's hand around Yudha's arm indicates that they are a couple. All eyes stare enviously at them. Especially the eves who looked at Yudha

"What exactly do we have to come here for? It feels very uncomfortable to always be the center of attention" Gina said quietly as if whispering

"From now on you have to get used to being the center of attention. Because your husband is the center of everyone's attention.

"Sir, it turns out you're a very narcissistic person"

Yudha did not respond to Gina's words. He just smiled and shrugged his shoulders at the same time

"How about we eat at the restaurant?"

Point Yudha to a western restaurant

"It's okay"

They walked to a restaurant inside the mall. Yudha pulls a chair for Gina after they arrive inside

"Thank you!"

"What do you want to eat?" asked Yudha to Gina as she opened the menu book that had been given by the waitress who approached them as soon as she looked to sit down

"Um, I think I want to eat spaghetti and ice cream" replied Gina as if thinking

"I'll have this one and also orange juice"

Yudha points to a meal contained in the menu book, the waiter quickly records what Yudha and Gina ordered

"Please wait a minute"

Waitress bends over a little before she leaves Yudha and Gina

"Look at this. Even a waitress was fascinated by you" complained Gina after seeing the waitress who had just left staring at Yudha while waiting for her to order food

"You're suspicious of men too, ma'am? Huh, I didn't know you were a jealous woman" taunted Yudha to Gina

"I'm not jealous, it's just that their gaze makes me uncomfortable"

Gina turned her face to avoid Yudha's taunts

"Then should I gouge out their eyes?"

"What?"

Gina was shocked to hear it

"Yes, do I have to gouge out their eyes for having dared to look at me to make you uncomfortable, should I set this day off as an office holiday because my mistress for the first time is jealous of me?"

"Stop talking nonsense and tell us what we should go to the mall for today"

"Um, because I want you to go to the parlor and do somebody treatments before the party."

"What party?"

"My welcome party to this country. People need to know that I'm here so they don't dare mess with me."

"It's up to you!"
