VENUS (Chapter 6)
One month later. Venus' condition is better. Very good in fact. His physique has recovered and the scars on his face and other parts of his body are starting to improve.
"How are you, is there still pain?" asked a man named Frans Hadiningrat, to Venus who was busy exercising physically in the backyard of the mansion.
"It's getting better, sir. My condition is better than before. Thank you because Mr. Frans wanted to help me. If Mr. Frans wasn't there at that time, who knows what my fate would be now," replied Venus, as she put down the wooden block she used to practice earlier. on the table.
Frans patted Venus on the shoulder, smiled and said, "I am also grateful to you, Venus. So far I have never felt calm, but after I got to know you, my life feels more relieved and protected."
Frans also invited Venus to sit in another corner of the courtyard of his mansion. Venus complied with this wish. During her stay here, Venus never once denied what Frans said.
There was a round table made of iron and teak wood as a base. There are also three pairs of chairs made of iron and wood too.
"Sit down!" Frans asked, pulling out the chair he wanted to sit on.
Venus also agreed. He also pulled out the chair. After the two of them sat down, one of the waiters came to deliver two glasses containing different juices.
Avocado juice for Venus, while mango juice for Frans Hadiningrat. The waiter served the two drinks, before finally leaving Frans.
"Drink! You must be thirsty, right, after practicing since this morning."
Venus reached for the glass in front of her eyes, "Thank you, sir." He sipped the avocado juice slowly. Until the contents are finished, there is nothing left. Is it because you are thirsty or hungry? Venus didn't leave a single drop of the juice behind.
Meanwhile, Frans still had some of his juice left and started his conversation again, "After this, what do you want to do? Are you going to immediately take revenge on the people who dumped you?" Frans asked to continue the conversation which had been delayed.
Venus's eyes darted left and right, "I don't know, sir? I don't have any plans for the future either. I really want to repay those who have made me like this. Until my revenge is avenged, I will never make them live in peace !" groaned Venus, clenching her fists tightly.
Frans could see how much revenge Venus had. The figure of a twenty-five year old young man, whose meeting was almost filled with heated debate.
Frans still clearly remembers how Venus almost lost her life, if at that time she didn't get a blood donor that matched hers.
The blood used was Frans' own blood. Is it a coincidence or is it God's destiny? It turns out that both of them have the same blood type.
Frans did not hesitate to donate his blood to save Venus, who was in critical condition and had to quickly get additional blood.
"If you really don't have a goal, then stay at my house," offered Frans, who continued their casual conversation.
Venus looked closely at the owner of the calming hazel beads, "Maybe I could stay at your house, sir, but for how long? I don't want to keep bothering Mr. Frans. You have given me too much help. There's no way I can continue staying at Master's house."
Frans nodded, studying Venus' answer, while stroking his chin a little quickly. His eyes rolled up, then he turned them back to the young man who he thought had no fear.
"You can work in my house, at least you won't feel like you're freeloading. How about that?" suggested Frans, patting Venus on the shoulder.
Even so, Venus' body did not move at all, meaning it did not shift when Frans put his hands together.
"Working at home, sir?"
Frans nodded, "Yes. Be my bodyguard. I'll pay whatever you want."
Venus withdrew her gaze from another angle towards Frans again, "Sir, you're just joking. I don't want a big payment. Just give me food and a place to shelter. If I ask again, it means I'm being rude to you, sir."
Without thinking, Venus accepted the offer. After all, he had to survive. The opportunity that is right in front of your eyes, it is not good to turn it down.
If you think about it again, the offer to become a Bodyguard is not wrong and burdensome for Venus, considering that she is quite skilled in self-defense and defense. So, just as a Bodyguard, Venus doesn't mind.
"Good. This is the answer I wanted to hear from you." Frans looked so happy when he found out that Venus didn't reject his invitation at all.
"Starting today you will officially work at my house," continued Frans, very happy.
"Then what is my job, Boss? Uh, wrong. I mean, sir," replied Venus, a little wrongly. I was so nervous that I ran out of words.
"Just call me, sir. As you usually say."
"Yes sir." Venus nodded, agreeing to the small request. "Because I have officially become a Bodyguard, Sir. So, what duties do I have to carry out? Do I have to take you to the office every day?"
Frans shook his head, he hastily answered, "There's no need to take me to the office. I still have two bodyguards who I think are more than enough to protect me."
Venus knitted one eyebrow, her left eye twitched uncontrollably. "Then you don't need me, does that mean?"
"It's not like that. Of course I really need you to look after my daughter."
"Taking care of the princess, sir?" Venus raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, looking after my daughter who will return tomorrow after completing her education in Germany," replied Frans hastily explaining.
Hearing this confession made Venus doubt. It's not that she's unable to look after Frans Hadiningrat's daughter, if I'm honest, Venus is too lazy to deal with women for now.
Considering the problems he has experienced dealing directly with women.
"What's wrong, Venus? Do you have any objections to the task I gave you?" Frans couldn't stop himself from asking, when he saw the change in Venus' facial expression which really disturbed his vision.
"It's not like that, sir. I just doubt and am not sure I will be able to protect my daughter, sir. What's more, she is such an educated person. Unlike me, who only graduated from a small school."
Frans chuckled when he heard Venus' answer, "You are just the way things are. Education is not a benchmark for judging someone. For me, the most important thing is your honesty and perseverance in working. I see that you are someone who is very hardworking. So I thought, my daughter won't look at you from your educational background."
Frans said so confidently.
Venus slightly suppressed her smile. Even though it had been explained clearly and openly, he still felt doubtful. If Frans had offered him the task of looking after someone else, apart from women, perhaps he wouldn't have been so hesitant.
"Okay, don't worry. My daughter is not that kind of woman. She won't look at someone based on their family background, education and work. So far I have always taught her to blend in with anyone, without having to look at that person's background," explained Frans further. carry on.
Venus just nodded several times. There were no sentences or words that he could utter in response to Frans' confession. Just a small smile that Venus gave.
His mind was still distracted by the task assigned to him.
What is Frans Hadiningrat's daughter like? Is it true that she is different from the women Venus has always known?
VENUS (Chapter 7) The next day. Frans asked Venus to take him to the airport. According to the schedule, today Frans' daughter, who lives in Germany, will return to Indonesia. Therefore, Frans had been preparing since early morning. "You can drive, right?" Fran asked ensure. "Of course, I can drive, sir. While working as a construction worker, I was often invited to be a car driver and learn to drive a little bit," explained Venus. "That's good then. Today you'll just drive. We'll go to the airport to pick up my daughter who came from Germany," asked Frans without thinking anymore. Venus gaped, "Driving, to the airport? Now? But, I don't have a driver's license, sir. That would be against the rules." The statement that came out of Venus' mouth was true and it was not wrong for her to say that. However, it wouldn't be Frans Hadiningrat if he couldn't make the impossible possible. "This is your driver's license." Frans handed over an object in the shape of a card like an i
VENUS (Chapter 8)"Daddy, who is he?" asked Arumi who looked down at the figure of the young man behind Frans. Frans turned around. He guessed what Arumi meant was Venus, "Oh, her. Daddy's new bodyguard, darling." "New bodyguard? How come I just found out? Daddy has never told me about recruiting new bodyguards before?" Arumi questioned her father's decision to hire a new bodyguard. Meanwhile, the number of bodyguards at home is not small. "Daddy only met her a month ago. You could say our meeting was very unexpected," explained Frans while pursing his lips, which he showed directly to Venus. Arumi frowned, "You've only met him for a month, why does Daddy trust him so much? Venus swallowed hard, not expecting Frans' daughter to be so talkative and alert. Arumi took her steps towards Venus who was standing straight, "Daddy didn't choose the wrong person, did he? Daddy appointed a weak man like this as a bodyguard? Just from his appearance, it's very different from the bodyguards
VENUS (Chapter 9)"Then I'll just go. Rather than my presence making Miss Arumi uncomfortable. Besides, Mr. Frans himself asked me to stay here and work as his bodyguard?" Venus said it clearly. "Thank you Mr Frans for what you have given me. I will never forget the help you have given me," continued Venus, a little haunted by feelings of guilt. Guilty because he has not been able to repay the help Frans gave him. There are no more words that Venus can say. He immediately turned around to walk away from the place that had protected him from the rain and heat for the past month. "Venus, wait!" Frans called, but Venus didn't look back at all. He ignored the call because he didn't want to make the decision he had taken waver. Frans' face became confused. His hand stroked his forehead and then ruffled his hair. Arumi could read every movement of his body clearly. "Wait!" Arumi shouted. Venus stopped in her tracks as she was standing on the edge of the door. Frans held his breath, wh
VENUS (Chapter 10)Arumi also held her father's hand in a romantic way. People who don't know will definitely think that Frans is with a paid woman who roams freely in a nightclub. The two immediately went downstairs. Initially, Frans invited Arumi to have breakfast first, but the girl refused and argued that she was still full. Frans did not force his will. Besides, he also drank a cup of coffee and a piece of bread before going to meet Arumi in the room. Frans really can't do without drinking coffee before doing activities. Eating rice is not mandatory, the important thing is that coffee and bread are enough for him. "Daddy, get rid of your bad habits. It's not good to drink coffee early in the morning. What's more, don't eat rice first," reminded Arumi. Frans gave a small cough, "Yes, later Daddy will change that habit, but take it slow first. Daddy can't do without drinking a cup of coffee, darling. You know Daddy has always been a fan of coffee, even when your Mommy was
VENUS (Chapter 11)After traveling for approximately seventy minutes, they finally arrived at the company owned by Frans Hadiningrat. This company which operates in the entertainment and online shopping sector is currently on the rise. The name of the company is Open Shell Group, which has been established for the last five years. Frans succeeded in creating millions of jobs for those who have small businesses with low sales turnover. With the Open Shell Group, there are many small entrepreneurs who achieve high profits per month. Frans felt proud of the results of his hard work. At first, he was already interested in the IT field. Only with determination and ability, finally after experiencing the ups and downs of life, Frans was able to stand alone with his big name now. At least he could puff out his chest and no longer lower his head in front of the crowd. Arumi always supports her father until he reaches the peak of his glory. Now Frans has spread his wings, heading int
VENUS (Chapter 12)One day has passed. Venus entered her room after working hard all day as bodyguard for the Hadiningrat family. "Oh my God... my body is all crushed. Ah... My bones... My waist..." The body was lying on the bed, face down. His hands were holding his waist which felt like it was going to fall off. He worked all day without resting. There's always something to do. Arumi kept him busy with small and big things. Like asking to climb a mango tree. Cleaning sewers, mopping, making houses for pet cats and many more jobs that are not actually in his field. Arumi continued to bother Venus, until her whole body seemed to be under a heavy burden. Venus, who has only recovered from her injury for a month, is not in prime condition. Because she had to do various tasks that were not in her field, Venus had to feel pain in several parts of her body. Slowly Venus began to close her eyes, falling asleep and entering the beautiful world of dreams. Frans, who had been fee
VENUS (Chapter 13)Venus trailed behind Arumi. The beautiful girl who had just arrived in Indonesia ordered Venus to watch her from a distance of ten meters. It can't be less, it can't be more. As a result, Venus took a safe distance of fifteen meters. Even though the distance is far, that doesn't mean Venus can relax and let go of her responsibilities. Before leaving, Frans first sent a short message to Venus, asking her to take good care of her daughter. Don't let it get scratched, or its life itself will disappear. Venus herself didn't care too much about the warning. After all, it was actually his duty to protect Arumi. As the responsibility that has been placed on his shoulders. The atmosphere of the city park is quite comfortable, cool and not too busy, making Venus feel calm. A gentle breeze blows, at least it dispels the burden of thoughts that have been weighing heavily on Venus for the past few days. Arumi is seen receiving a phone call from who knows who? Venus
VENUS (Chapter 14)Arumi also invited Riki to explore the city park. Holding each other's hands like a couple in love. That's how it is. Arumi decided to return to Indonesia, apart from finishing college, there were other reasons, the main one was wanting to build a company with her Daddy and of course Riki. Having lived for almost ten years in Germany, Arumi really missed the man she had known since she was at school. Cultivating a secret romance over the distance between Indonesia and Germany makes Arumi high with longing. When a pair of lovers hold hands, eat together, do many things together, of course Arumi is often hit by feelings of envy and jealousy. What's more, his friends in Germany often mocked him for not having a partner. Who wouldn't be annoyed, every day they deliberately make out in front of Arumi's eyes? Their goal was very clear, namely to make Arumi annoyed and angry. The hard times have finally passed. Now Arumi can be alone with Riki. Taking Riki's ha
