My Ketos My Husband
Money is Everything

The sound made the feather stand up Ara. With a forced Ara to ventured into his house.

"H-hi dad.." said Ara nervously.

Plakkkp....

A hard slap landed on Ara's smooth cheek abruptly. Spontaneous Ara held onto her hot cheek and started to blush.

"Dad why slap Ara?" asked Ara with the tears she held.

His father breathed a rough breath, "You know what? Because of your behavior was a good name father so smeared, why the hell you damaged father's good name? I've had a hard time building this reputation and you're ruined?" snapped Ara's father out loud.

Ara just looked down silently not daring to fight her father. "But Ara really doesn't do anything well, it's all just a misunderstanding." Ara defended herself without feeling guilty.

"Yes, you are not saying it or not now it is not important, all already know and will members of the father fail to educate the child. You're the only child, why even shy family anyway?" snapped Ara's Dad.

Ara's father raised his hand up, Ara reflexes lowered her head. Before his father's hand slapped him again, Ara's mother first grabbed Ara's father's hand.

"Dad... Dad why? Why is our son hit anyway?" ask the frightened Mother Ara. His mother immediately embraced Ara who began to shed tears.

"You know? Your son has ruined my reputation in front of people including Mr. Pradipta. Now I don't have anything to do with your son! Having a child is useless!" snapped Ara's Dad.

"Bah! Enough, don't be mad at our son anymore! We don't know what's wrong, either."

Ara looked down with a grim face, "Enough! ENOUGH!!!"

Ara's clash made both her parents shocked and looked at her. "Dad always requires Ara to be perfect, ask Ara to make this but has Ara ever been given the opportunity to choose? Ara should always be perfect according to your expectations, but what about Ara's expectations?" asked Ara with a higher tone.

"Mom..."

"But it's in line with what you get. You get more pocket money, your clothes are good, you have a car, you can play as you like and you have everything! What's wrong with having the same hope as you? You're my only son!" ara's father defended himself.

"Not wrong, but the wrong one is the father who forced Ara too much to be perfect! You ever ask me what Ara wants? Never been?"

Ara's question left both her parents speechless in a thousand languages. Ara took out all her pent-up uneg-unegs over the years.

"Don't you? Ever asked what Ara really wants, what kind of talent, and what Ara's ideals? If it is not necessary for Ara to be a perfect child, you two are not perfect parents for Ara, according to Ara. I'm sorry for being rude, but that's the truth!"

Ara turned around violently leaving her parents behind. He exited the house with his car keys in his hand, with a cold look he just left.

Ara starts her car engine and leaves with her school uniform still attached to her body. He remembered the beginning of why everything could be like this on the road.

"Hiks... No one can understand me, hiks. Surya, why the hell do you have to come to my life? Why at that time you give me a drink and calm down I'm anj*r, if there is no lo maybe I've been number 1 and always perfect anywhere." Ara was annoyed and flailed the steering wheel of her car in annoyance.

Flashback...

Today's announcement of the champion for the class X report card. Ara relaxed because he felt confident that he got 1st in class and also 1st parallel champion again.

But alas, Ara's eyes widened when passing he got the number 2 position, which got champion 1 is Surya. After taking the report card, Ara quietly cried behind the park bench because she was scolded by her father.

"Hiks... Why, why number 2. I got scolded by papa. Hiks, why should the 2nd champion?!"

Suddenly Surya caught up with him sitting next to Ara. "What's going on here? Here's a drink..." Surya gave a bottle of drink to Ara.

Ara accepted it and wiped her tears, she tried not to get familiar because she was upset to get champion 2. Finally Surya started the conversation, "Lo kelas with me? Kesel because of the 2nd champion?"

Ara remained silent and drank the water that Surya carried until he choked, "Uhuk... Uhuk... Uhuk-uhuk!"

Surya was shocked and patted Ara on the back, "Where the hell is that? What do you drink anyway? Slow down napa."

They talked for a while until Ara wanted to open a little conversation with Surya. "Lo why the hell should be champion 1, I scolded my father for champion 2."

"But Dad asked me to be champion 1."

"You want to win 1 or 2, lo pinter academic or not, it all depends on you alone. It's your choice, and you're free to be whatever you want without anyone else's coercion."

Surya's suggestion was heard by Ara, Ara smiled as she wiped her tears. "Means I'm free to do what I want?"

"Originally, you are free to do whatever your will is."

Flashback Off

That memory still lingered in Ara's heart. From then on he decided to do whatever he wanted, including chasing after Surya.

"Yeahhh.... Why the hell, why? It didn't go as I expected at all! Life isn't fair, Raina can get everything she wants!"

Ara yelled in her car flailing her steering wheel to vent her current anger.

Suddenly there was someone crossing that Ara did not see. Spontaneous Ara slammed her car to the left until it hit a roadblock and a tree.

"Ohhh..."

Bruuack....

The blow was quite harsh, Ara's head was hit and injured. Ara tried hard to get out of her car, the surrounding residents also immediately helped Ara to be taken to the hospital.

The Hospital

Fortunately, Ara's injuries were not severe, her legs were only slightly sprained, her forehead was injured and her hands were bruised. But Ara felt stiff and pain all over her body.

"aww... "

Ara opened her eyes and her body was completely stiff, moving a little painfully. Her mother seemed to be crying beside her.

"Mama..."

Her mother stood up and looked at Ara's situation. "You why the hell? How can gini accident, you think what the hell Ra? I'm worried you know!"

"Accident?"

Ara recalled the previous incident, she remembered that she avoided someone who crossed and could not remember anything else.

"Where's my father?"

Her mother wiped the tears, "Your father works, he said there is an urgent matter in the office so can't see your situation."

Ara chuckled annoyedly, "Heh... Work is more important than the state of the child? Money is everything."

***

Session Day

Ara came to school with a few bruised hands and plaster forehead. The deadly gazes he got from the children along the corridor.

The children were gossiping about Ara while Ara was passing by. Ara is still positive thinking and thinking that no one knows about this problem.

"May they don't know this, I have to keep everything secret!" mummified Ara.
