THE SCANDALS (English Version)

In a restaurant, some of young people are enjoying their meal. Andrea, this cheerful girl, became the center of attention at the dining table.

It was the most lively atmosphere at dinner that time. Felix, the lover, occasionally glanced at Andre, who seemed busy chatting with his friends.

"When are you guys getting married?" Rendy, one of Felix's friends, asked a question that people very often ask.

"Wait, Felix just graduated from college. I want him get a job first," Andrea said casually.

"You guys have been dating since school. What are you waiting for? Can arrange work. But if you don't get it now, you won't get it again." Bruno, another of Felix's friends, also added.

Felix just smiled at his friend's question. He just graduated from college today. Where is the time to think about marriage?

"Honey, I have to go home now. My mother and sister are waiting for me. Do you want to come home with me?" Felix asked Andrea.

"No, I have to go downtown for a while. You can go home first. I can go home by myself later," Andrea said casually.

"Okay, sorry. I can't accompany you," Felix said as he left. He kissed Andrea's cheek briefly.

"Hey, where are you going, Felix, we're not done yet?" asked Rendy, holding up a glass of drunken drink.

"Sorry, I have to hurry. Please take care of my lover," Felix said as he left with his toga and graduation robe, which he leaned on the chair.

"Hey, hey, Felix!" call Bruno.

"Wait a minute," Andrea followed Felix, who wasn't far from the restaurant.

"Felix! Exclaimed Andrea.

Felix, who felt his name being called, turned around.

"Why? Why are you running like that?" Felix asked.

"You should take a taxi. It is for you," Andrea took a few hundred thousand and handed them to Felix.

"Honey, I owe you a lot. What can I do to repay all of this?" Felix looked touched as he took the money in his hand.

"I love you, Felix. Love doesn't need to be indebted," Andrea said with a smile.

Felix pulled Andrea and kissed her lips passionately. Andrea also responded warmly.

"You are my savior. I would not have achieved Andrea without you all this," Felix said while looking at Andrea with teary eyes.

"I love you, Felix," Andrea said with a sweet smile.

"I love you too," Felix replied.

****

Andrea woke up in the morning on a bed in a room. Looking at the condition of the room, it seems like this is a hotel room.

"Ah, my head hurts so bad," Andrea held her head.

Her nose accidentally smelled the strong liquor. Her eyes slowly opened. She saw that was not clothed at all.

"Oh my God! What happened?" Andre was surprised to see herself sleeping on a bed in a hotel room she did not recognize.

Her eyes widened even more when she saw Bruno and Rendy also in the room. She was not wearing clothes either.

Andrea hurriedly put on her clothes. She had no recollection of what had happened. She never drank liquor. How could she get drunk and fall asleep naked with his two best friends?

Rendy seemed to start opening his eyes and saw Andrea panicked and scared.

"Andrea," called Randy.

"Damn it! What have you guys done to me?" shouted Andrea.

"Sorry, last night we were both drunk," said Rendy.

"I don't drink at all. How can I get drunk? Why are you doing this to me?" Andrea couldn't seem to hold back her tears.

"Ah, you don't have to be holy, Andrea. We're both adults. Let this happen once. Don't worry, Felix won't know," said Rendy casually while wearing his clothes.

Rendy threw money at Andrea. Rendy, Felix's best friend, is indeed the son of a rich man. And Felix always wants to be close to Rendy because of his social status.

"What do you mean?" Andrea's eyes widened when she saw the notes scattered in front of her.

"I'll make up for your loss. Break it off?" said Randy as he hurried away just like that.

"Oh yeah, don't let anyone hear this incident. You must not be that stupid to reveal all this, right?" Rendy smiled slyly and walked away.

Andrea wept over her state of being like an idiot. Could this ever happen to him?

"Ahh," Andrea ran a rough hand through her hair while crying in frustration.

She immediately regretted not wanting to go home with Felix last night. She remembered, she returned to the restaurant after meeting Felix.

But after that, she forgot what had happened. Andrea immediately looked for her things just as Bruno woke up and smiled gently at Andrea.

"You're great, Andrea," she said, rubbing his face.

DUG!

A fist landed on Bruno's cheek.

"Hey, you!" shouted Bruno while holding the cheek hit by Andrea's fist.

"I didn't know you were this low!" shouted Andrea angrily.

"Nothing will happen after this. Calm down, Andrea. Let's just say we made a mistake," said Bruno as he approached Andrea and held her shoulders.

"Get off your dirty hands!" Andrea pushed Bruno so that the man fell to the floor.

"God damn it!"

PLAQUE!

A hard slap hit Andrea's cheek. Bruno didn't seem to like Andrea refusing him.

"Why do you want to be curmudgeonly like Felix? Why do you even reject me who has everything?" Bruno glared at Andrea.

"Don't compare someone like you to Felix! He's fighting for his life. He's not a spoiled kid like you who just squanders your parents' wealth!" cried Andrea while crying.

"Hey, you don't know that he's just using you. You're beautiful, but Felix wants to be fooled. Suppose you want to be with me. I'll give you everything you want."

"Don't expect it! And don't badmouth Felix in front of me. He's much better than you!"

Andrea came out of the hotel room, leaving Bruno sobbing.

She couldn't believe something like this had happened to him. She never even did it with his lover Felix.

Lord! Why did this happen to me? What did I do wrong? It's not fair!

Andrea screamed in her heart. People saw her coming out of the hotel in tears. But Andrea didn't care at all.

KRING! KRING!

A call greeted Andrea at the wrong time. He wanted to ignore the call.

She chose to stand under the tabebuia tree that adorned the street. She tried to pick up the phone.

"Hello," said Andrea, holding back her tears.

"Where are you? I'm already in front of your house?" Felix's voice from behind the phone made Andrea's heart feel like it was struck by lightning.

Andrea's hands shook violently when she heard Felix's voice.

"Andrea, why are you silent? We're meeting today. You said you were going to buy me a suit to apply for a job?" Felix said.

Andrea's hand covered her mouth because she couldn't hold it anymore.
