Money Or Honey
Episode 64: Being alone

Tonight is not as usual. In the last two weeks, Roberts may be able to refrain from meeting Hiyola with the help of bad thoughts about the night job that the girl is diving into. However, what about now, when all the accusations he made were not true? Will he still be able to refrain from missing her anymore.

"Armghhh...!"

Roberth was displacing his hair in frustration. His battered handsome face did not reduce the growing sense of regret gnawing.

While elsewhere, right in Jeremy's room, Hiyola anxiously treats a bruise on the corner of the man's lip. He was so painstaking and focused on what he had done that he had been unconscious ever since, the patient kept looking at him without awkwardly.

"You don't wonder what really happened?" Jeremy voices. Hiyola stopped her hand from smearing the red medicine. He looked at Jeremy for a moment.

"You adults, whatever the case may be I have no right to interfere or question?" Returning to continue her activities, Hiyola tried to hold back. Not his geer, the fight was going on in his room, so there must be a connection with him.

Jeremy fizzed softly, the pain at the corner of his lips began to feel. "Even if it's related to you?"

Hiyola. He thought for a moment, then ventured to take his place on the lip of the bed right next to Jeremy.

"Say, I'm curious,"

Jeremy shuffled briefly to change his position. He stared intensely at Hiyola. "I've cleared up the misunderstanding between you and Robert" he said.

Not responding, Hiyola eerie both baffled eyebrows. Misunderstand it? Misunderstand what?

"I don't understand" Hiyola replied. His gaze was astonished.

"I'll explain later. But know that the misunderstanding between you is resolved." Jeremy turned his body back. He cut off eye contact. "Maybe after this his attitude began to change. He'll probably be nice to you, not like before. If her attitude changes, what about you?" ask her.

Hiyola was still astonished, but Jeremy's statements and questions were enough to make her worried. Robert was probably the first man to have successfully inhabited his heart. Although only realized it would not be easy to forget the feeling, a sense of disappointment in Robert, slowly shifted the position of Roberth in his heart. Especially when seeing her and Kimberly's closeness, Hiyola has begun to learn to forget.

With a round of determination, Hiyola decided. It may not be easy to avoid, but he will not be a fool who falls into Robert's charm again.

Not yet answering Jeremy's question, Hiyola picked up her P3K gear again. He took Jeremy's shoulder with one hand and changed his position facing off. His clasped hands resumed work that had been delayed.

"Originally you know. I am not a weak woman. I'm a woman of opinion. Maybe it will not be easy to avoid Robert because of the fact that I put feelings on him.But believe me, it will not be easy for him, like the first time when the feeling came," continued Hiyola.

Jeremy can feel his heart throbbing at the confession of the girl he loves, but looking into his eyes, Jeremy hopes there will still be a moment where he can truly fill the heart of a Hiyola.

Day two in Germany is not like yesterday that feels cold and stiff. Everyone seems to be quieter when eating breakfast. Apparently Esmeralda wasn't told about last night. Ah, it turns out that Esmeralda's health is more important than Alberto's loyalty. The man preferred to cover up the incident last night rather than see his employer fall ill because of the two dear grandchildren who had a fight.

"I hope Jeremy and Robert can be as close as brothers."

Finished eating his breakfast, Esmeralda made a sound. He was happy to hear from Alberto about his two grandchildren who were busy working together to take care of the company. Since childhood the two boys never get along so not infrequently Esmeralda had to intervene.

"Oh yes, last night Steward said that Clodio's condition was fine. Maybe in a few days he'll recover." Esmeralda speaking. Everyone in the room knew her purpose for Violeta, but the woman not mentioned her name was just indifferent.

Because of the quiet room, Hiyola who had also finished her meal, dared to speak up. Honestly, she is not a quiet girl. A day without talking, his mouth was itching.

"So, can we see Mr Clodio?" Jesus, his habit of calling the CEO who he had never seen the trunk of his nose, carried away until now.

Esmeralda chuckled softly, Kimberly gaping in disbelief at Hiyola who had just become acquainted with Esmeralda daring to speak to the ferocious-looking woman.

"Jagan calls Mister, that Clodio will be your father-in-law one day, you don't have to call him that. Enough, Daddy. Just like Jeremy did."

Hiyola smiled clumsily, "Alright, Grandma," Hiyola replied as she clapped her non-itchy nape.

Now Esmeralda's focus is back on Violeta. "You take your daughters-in-law shopping. It would be very good if they were not trapped in this house even though they were abroad" Esmeralda said. The old woman felt a little guilty for her attitude last night, but her father-in-law was still angry.

Violeta put down the cleaning cloth of her mouth, she looked at Esmeralda a little unfriendly. "Sorry, mother, my daughter-in-law is only one. I am under no obligation to please another's daughter-in-law" she said, then stood up and left the table.

Esmeralda looked in disbelief. She nodded at Violeta's behavior. "I think I'm spoiling him too much in this house." Esmeralda saw Kimberly, "Pursue your father-in-law, Kim. Tell her Grandma's sorry for last night's attitude," she said.

Hiyola could see the maternal affection Esmeralda had. Maybe he does not like Violeta too much, but here he is still trying to accept his presence is wrong.

What a complicated love.

After Kimberly's death, Esmeralda decided to return to her room with Alberto, while Hiyola, she asked Esmeralda to shop with Kimberly and Violeta. Despite the haughty attitude, Violeta would do what Esmeralda told her to ask the two young women to go shopping.

"Prepare yourself. I won't wait long!!!" tell Violeta when Hiyola will go up to her room.

With a hasty movement, Hiyola started pressing the elevator button. When it opens, he goes inside. There was a sense of awkwardness as he had to actually go shopping with the woman who was his mother-in-law. They weren't so close, even every time they had a word with Violeta it would all end badly for them.

"Ah, stop. I'll just think about it later."

The elevator door closed. The new Hiyola will press the number 7 button when the lift opens again. He was shocked to find Robert stepping inside.

"I'll go up later. Just go ahead."

Just one step away, Hiyola's hand was in a strong grip. Roberts unceremoniously pulled Hiyola into the elevator and pressed the number seven button, ignoring all the protests Hiyola was throwing.

"Why are you so happy to insist?" Hiyola. The memory of Robert stealing her kisses is back. He hated the sad look that Robert was currently throwing at him.

"I'm sorry,"
