The Gambling Bet
Meet Alya

            Eight months have passed and time has gone by so fast. Adrian is still focused on his laptop screen. There was a knock from the door.

              " Yes in.!" 

               "Sorry sir, I'd like to remind you that we're meeting soon." Said Puspa standing in front of Adrian .

               "Yes, is there any more." Adrian asked without looking.

               "Yes, sir, we're meeting at a simple cafe Coffe." Puspa paused his words.

              "Why is there no other place.?" Adrian frowned his astonishment.

              " That's our client's request sir, for wanting to enjoy the open atmosphere.?" Answer Puspa.

             Adrian got up from his seat, trailing behind Puspa following Adrian's steps.

         Arrived where Puspa told the place requested by the client.They also went to the room where there was waiting for the client who said Puspa.

                "I'm sorry, it's made you wait ." Adrian shook the client's hand.

                "It's okay sir, introduce me Iqbal, the envoy from Mr. Handoko, from the project in Bandung, I came here because he was unable to attend." Answer Iqbal.

               Meeting was running smoothly Adrian agreed to the percentage delivered by his partner envoy, he also agreed to sign a cooperation contract.

             Alya who was working on cleaning the table, turned her attention for a moment.

              " You why Alya, you look so pale.?" Ask Lyra.

            Lyra is one of her friends who works together at the cafe.

            "Let's see my stomach's been so cramped since last night."  Alya .

           Hearing Alya's words for a moment his friend panicked.

               "Oh my goodness, have you approached Alya's will.?" Ask Lyra to panic.

               "Actually not yet, but somehow these few days my stomach has a lot of Lyra cramps." 

              Alya stroked her stomach which now looks growing bigger.Yes, the incident that night has now grown the seeds of new life that is now in her womb.

          Actually Alya had to leave from his job, before the day of labor.Akan but because of the needs of life he forced him to keep working. He did not want to hang his life with Lastri's mother who had helped him. Luckily, the cafe owner still allows her to work even though she is pregnant.

               "How about you ask permission from the boss, for a break, soon we've changed shift work." Lyra said she gave advice.

             " Yes, Lyra then I'll take this to the kitchen first ." 

            Alya hurriedly lifted the tray on the table, the tray containing the bowl and the dirty glasses. But , suddenly he collided with cafe visitors. The tray in his hand fell onto the broken glass floor scattering everywhere. Make the attention of cafe visitors lead to them.

           "Hey, can work properly not really, tuh.kan my clothes become dirty.!"  Maki the woman who hit Alya.

         His white shirt got dirty from a coffee spill.

              "I'm sorry ma'am, I really didn't accidentally." Alya bowed her head apologizing to the woman in front of her. Alya snatched the tissue located on the table to clean the woman's clothes.

            But, the woman suddenly pushed Alya's hand violently.

                "Ih..already - already ." 

                "Huh.., you.?" The woman screamed.

             Alya raised her head to stare at the face of the arrogant woman who was in front of her. Alya's eyes were perfectly rounded. How not the woman in front of him is Puspa's foster sister.

        But it was not only the arrival of Puspa who was in front of him that made Alya surprised. But also the man who was walking towards them.Yes .Adrian who had bought her chastity as well as the man who had planted the seed that was now growing in her womb.

             There is something different with the appearance of Puspa, he looks not as usual, the appearance is now not like Puspa who used to look classy.

                  "Puspa, are you here.?"  

           Alya's hand tried to grab Puspa to hug, but Puspa roughly brushed Alya's hand away as if he didn't know her.

                   "Ihhh.., what the hell is hold-hold." 

              That afternoon Puspa and Adrian did meet a client at the cafe.Puspa did not know if Adrian was the man who had bought Alya.Since that night Baron lost gambling until Alya is the victim of the bet. Puspa was very surprised to find his adoptive brother wearing a cafe.Puspa staff uniform looking at Alya from the tip of the foot to the tip of the head.

               "Wow...., what a surprise to meet here.?" Turns out you're working as a cafe waitress now, huh.?"  Puspa said with sarcastic tone.

                Alya was only silent because the events of that night made her life become strayed. Alya's face immediately looked very pale. His lips tightly closed, his body trembled Alya no longer dared to raise his head. Moreover, Adrian's gaze really intimidated him.

         "Oh yeah, since when are you pregnant.?" May I know who the father of the child you bear is.?" What do not - not the man of the child much.?" So you don't remember it.!" 

              Alya did not answer the words of Puspa. A very painful meeting of longing that arouses to meet Mary's mother must be detained because of Puspa's attitude that is now changing. Even more hurt Alya's heart stood in front of him the man who had bought her chastity which caused her to now become pregnant. Adrian who had to be responsible for her pregnancy now seemed to not care.

           Not wanting to argue with Puspa , Alya crouched her hands to pick up the broken glass scattered on the floor. Alya held back the tears that were about to fall down dripping.

            Adrian just stared coldly without expression. Adrian has been staring at Alya's stomach, which is now growing. Although only once met, after that night, but Adrian still recognizes the owner of the innocent face that has been shadowing wherever it goes. The woman he bought a few months ago to fulfill his unbearable passion that night he bought it through a pimp named Alvin, Marco's boss's boy.

             "I'm sorry I have to go back."

    Alya walked hurriedly towards the kitchen. He wanted to avoid a debate with Puspa. Alya doesn't want to be fired from her job.

                Upon arrival in the kitchen he let out a long sigh to unravel the tightness in the chest. His back he rested on the wall, his hands wiping away the tears that kept flowing down his cheeks.

               Adrian has not been able to dispel from his surprise, an unexpected encounter with Alya. Adrian's view he turned towards the kitchen, because after entering the kitchen Alya never went out.

                "Puspa, did you know that woman.?" Ask Adrian.

          Puspa was silent for a moment thinking about what answer he would give with Adrian. There was no way he would tell Adrian the truth that Alya was his adoptive sister, as his efforts to get Adrian's attention were very difficult.

               "Oh he's Alya sir, my old neighbor, in fact I don't know so closely. But all I know is that she's not a good woman.!" Alya answered reassuringly.

                "You don't mean nice woman how.?" Ask Adrian curious.

            "She's a woman of the night, I wonder why the owner of this cafe would hire such a woman. Not afraid of the unlucky crucifixion, where pregnant again is not very clear.!" Puspa said with a sarcastic tone.

          Adrian was silent for a moment trying to digest Puspa's words. A little doubt ran through his mind. Deep in his heart did not accept the words of Puspa. Because Adrian knows that he was the first one to touch Alya. Even Adrian was so sure of Alya's attitude that night, Alya had never been in contact with a man.
