Chapter 3 Meet strange men

This morning Julia returned to work in the shop as a waiter, she wanted to briefly forget the problem for a moment. Julia wants to feel busy until she can get rid of her sadness.

She wanted to forget that she had been sold like an item. Susi, a high school friend and works in the same shop as Julia. Susi has heard of Julia's wedding plans to be held next month.

"How does it feel to get married, how much dowry did Andi give you?" Susi asked excitedly. During this time Susi only knew Andi was Julia's lover. "Your stepfather doesn't like Andi? why can you get married?" Susi asked again.

Susi asked twice about it, Julia was still silent. She could not scold Susi who had brought up the problem. That fact made her heart hurt, but no one knew the problem besides her family. Neither is his lover, Andi Atmaja.

"Julia, why stay still. Come on answer!" Susi urges Julia to answer her question.

"What should I answer, the marriage that I carried out was because of my father's doing. My stepfather sold me to loan sharks." Julia answered with tears.

Susi was very surprised, she did not expect Julia to be sold by her stepfather. With guilt Susi cut Julia's hand.

"I'm sorry Julia, I didn't know my question made you sad" said Susi while hugging Julia's body, she felt guilty about what she said.

Julia is very beautiful, she has dutch blood on her body. In their village, a large number of foreign descendants lived there while colonial. Many of them were married to indigenous people, including Julia's father. Unfortunately, Julia's father, who was the owner of the tea garden and tea leaf processing factory, did not live long.

Carlos Smith died at the age of forty, Julia was in elementary school at the time. Out Julia's father did not approve of Carlos and Ambar's marriage. When Carlos Smith died, Ambar and Julia were expelled from the Smith Family's house.

Tired of having to rent a house in several places, Ambar became acquainted with Dodit who was very good at Ambar and also Julia. Dodit helped the lives of Ambar and Julia until some time later Ambar accepted Dodit's application. But not for long, Dodit only targeted Ambar's treasures from Carlos Smith's legacy and spent gambling.

Finally until Ambar's only property, Julia, was sold by Dodit. Julia felt sad when Susi asked about her life.

"Don't be sad anymore Julia, just consider it a test for you. Who knows your life will be even better. "Susi tried to comfort Julia even though she knew she couldn't make Julia forget sad.

"Julia dear" called Andi. Andi is an employee of a textile factory that is not large. Every day every hour of rest, Andi always comes to the shop where Julia works. Andi brings lunch to Julia.

Actually Andi had heard about Julia's wedding plans, but Andi chose to pretend he didn't know. Andi and Julia love each other and promise to get through every problem both.

"Andi came, Julia," said Susi.

Julia cleans the remaining tears on her cheeks, Julia's face looks like her usual when Andi meets her. Julia did not smile at Andi as if reluctant to meet Andi.

"Why do you look sad, honey?" Andi asked while pinching Julia's cheek.

"What are you doing here?" asked Julia with a cold face.

"I'm here to take you to lunch, have you forgotten our habits all this time?" Andi answered casually. A sweet smile radiates from Andi's red lips, he is indeed not a smoker so it is different from other men's lips.

Andi's face is very handsome, but he has physical deficiencies. He cannot walk normally because the right foot is shorter than the right foot. However, Julia did not look physically, Julia loved Andi so much.

Andi was the one who introduced the shop owner where Julia worked now, until she could work in this shop even though her salary was very small. Andi brings lunch to Julia, so Julia can save her money.

"Andi, do you know my wedding plans. I know you pretended not to know, "Julia said, turning her face the other way, she could not see the face of her lover. Julia's heart hurts because soon she will part with her lover.

"I know, none of that is your wish. I can save you and we will live happily, we can elope and no one separates us." Said Andi firmly, he had thought of his words and would realize his desires.

"That is not my wish, but it still cannot be undone. We better just separate." Say Julia while shed tears.

"I don't want to! Don't say that, if you want yourself better now I'm gone, don't forget to eat." Said Andi while putting food in front of Julia, he would not give up. Andi's love for Julia was so big.

"Julia, let me close the shop. You don't be sad, you better walk to the tea plantation so your mind calms down." Usul Susi.

"A very good idea, alright. Thank you for closing the shop yourself, "Julia felt suctioned.

"No need to feel right, hurry and go!' said Susi with a big smile.

Julia finally walked towards the tea plantation alone, that afternoon the tea plantation was very quiet even though there were some people who were on it.

The sun began to set, radiated Julia's very charming beauty. Julia's beauty is already famous in her village, even many men try to approach her. However, only Andi made her fall in love. Until many men hold grudges against Julia. As Julia walked home, there were two men who followed her from behind.

Julia realized the presence of the two men, she ran quickly to get home quickly. Until without Julia knowing because of her fear of bumping into a man who had just gotten out of his luxury car.

Bruk!

Both of them fell into the position of hugging bodies, Julia was above the man's body. Julia felt strange about the man's face in front of her.
