SCARED AND WORRIED

"What? Is that true? Then how is this Zar? Where should I go?" Said the girl.

"For the time being, you'd better stay at my house first. It will be safer for you. And Bahadır can find lodging near my complex. So that we can be safe from them." replied Zara.

But, what about your parents Zar?" said Sri.

You don't worry, at my house there is only Asih. This morning my mother went to grandma's house again. Maybe a month or so coming home. Meanwhile, my father is on duty outside the island now." Zara replied.

The innocent girl told her lover that she was being sought by the police because she was considered missing. Because of that they both agreed to move out of the hotel. Because if they stay there, sooner or later the police will track their whereabouts. And this is also dangerous for Bahadır. It could be her lover who was accused of taking her away.

Before the news spread widely, the lovers finally checked out of the hotel. Zara tells them to wait on the road, as Zara will pick her up. After a few minutes Zara's car arrived. Seen Sri and Bahadır get into the car. Unexpectedly a car trailed the car the three of them were in.

"There seems to be a car behind us following Kita Sri." Zara said looking panicked.

"Really Zar? Could it be Anton's car? I seem to have seen that car Zar." Sri said to Zara.

"We have to avoid that car. Shift the focus. Now you increase the speed of the car. And get a little closer to the box car. Try not to see your car. Bahadir said.

Finally they were able to avoid the car that was following them. Then they turned back towards Zara's house.

Suddenly Zara's phone rings. Turns out, it was Anton who called Zara.

"Hello, Zara? I already know everything. It turns out you were the one who came up with this idea. I'll be sure to find you guys. You'll see." Said Anton threateningly.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean Ton." replied Zara pretending not to understand.

"Alah.. don't dodge it, you Zar. You were the one who picked up Zara to run away from the proposal? You were the one who gave Sri all this idea. Admit you are Zar." Anton said with emotion and snapped at him.

"Okay. Alright! This is indeed our plan. I won't let you ruin my friend's future again. And remember, Ton, it's no longer a secret that you're not a good man. As long as you know your crime cards are all in my hands. . Do you still remember when you did that Ab*rsi? Do you still remember my best friend Lia? You have ruined his future. She was expelled by her own parents for impregnating her. Until his life was scattered on the streets. At that time you forced to do the abortion." Zara said revealing all the man's crimes.

"What? Are you kidding me? What evidence do you have? You don't have one, do you? Don't try to slander and threaten me Zar. I'm not afraid in the slightest." said Anton.

"We'll see who will win? Remember I also have evidence of the crimes you committed." replied Zara firmly and full of emotion.

Then their conversation was cut off because Anton turned off his cell phone call.

Arriving at Zara's house, a middle-aged woman appeared in front of the house. It was Bik Asih, who was Zara's maid and caregiver when she was little. They finally entered the house.

"Sri and Bahadır are Bik Asih's helpers here. Bik Asih is the one who has taken care of me since I was little. Yes, Bik Asih, please introduce Zara's friend, Sri and this is Bahadır. Please prepare food for them. And please clean the room next to Zara's, okay? sis." said Zara.

"Welcome Ning Zara and Mas Bahadır. Let me help carry the things." Say Bik Asih.

"Yes, thank you, Ms. Asih." Sri said.

"Not at all." Bik Asih replied.

In a different place, that morning Pak Poniman was seen talking with Mrs. Warsinah on the terrace of the house.

"Sir, shouldn't we just cancel Sri's match with Anton? Let Sri quickly return home and gather with us again, sir. I miss and worry about Sri Pak. You should be calm and put an end to everything. I'm tired, sir." Mrs. Warsinah said to her husband.

"I can't, ma'am. Sri has tarnished the face of Mr. and all our family and also the family of Mr. Kades. This mother is still defending that impudent child. Later when the money runs out she will also go home Mrs. Already calm down. Leave everything to Son Anton. Let him look for Sri." Said Mr. Poniman--

Suddenly a man's voice came and called Mr. Poniman. What turned out to be the village headman, Anton's uncle.

"Good morning sir, my purpose in coming here is to provide details of your debts to me. These are the details, please read." The village chief said.

When he saw Mr. Poniman-- he seemed surprised because the amount of the debt was very large.

"What is this, Mr. Kades? 200 million? However, my debt is not that much, sir. It's too big in nominal." Mr. Poniman said looking shocked

"Do you remember? Every time I gave money to pay for your children's school fees first? And also to meet the needs of your family every month?

It all counts, sir. Today, which one is free, sir? And you have signed the agreement. If Pak Poniman cannot pay off the debts, then this house and your land will be confiscated instead." said the village head proudly.

"Please sir, give us time to pay off all our debts. I promise to pay it off." Mr. Poniman said pleadingly to Mr. Kades.

Mr. Poniman can't possibly pay off those debts, the amount is too big for you. If Pak Poniman-- wants the debts to be paid off, the only way is to marry Sri to Anton as soon as possible. It is Anton who will pay off Pak Poniman's debts to me. Therefore, Sri must be found and married to Anton. If not, we will confiscate this house along with your land," said the village head giving a choice.

"Sir, we are indeed a poor family. But we will not sacrifice our daughter as collateral. She is not a doll that can be used at will. We would rather live on the streets than sell our daughter just because of my husband's debt. our family. We really respect you. But what is your reply to us? Sir, it is better for the village head to leave now from our house," said Mrs. Warsinah to the village head.

"Remember, Mr. Poniman! Your debts must be paid off immediately." The village head said as he walked away leaving them.

You are very brave with Sri our son, what's wrong, Sri Sir? You are a bad father with your own biological child." Mrs. Warsinah said to her husband in tears.

"Never mind Ma'am, don't talk too much, the most important thing is now we are looking for Sri. And immediately marry him to Anton. Said Mr. Poniman with an innocent face.

"I can't understand it, you have the heart, Father. You don't have a heart." Mrs. Warsinah said while stroking her chest.

It turns out that all this time Pak Poniman has owed that much to the village head. The money was used to gamble all this time.

It was very cruel and heartless to his youngest child. He deliberately wanted to marry Sri with Anton so that his debts were paid off.

That afternoon Zara and Sri were talking in the living room while watching television. Suddenly the innocent girl saw someone peeking out of the window. However, after seeing no one was seen.

"Zar, I saw people outside peeking through the glass window, but I saw just now that there was no one at all. Could it be Anton Zar?" Sri said to Zara scared.

"It can't be Anton, Sri. Anton doesn't know my current house. He knows your old house. So there's no way he's here to spy on us. Come on Sri, don't worry! I'm with you. Calm down!" Zara said reassuring Sri.
