The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 106
Advertisement
Aruna or Aliana wasn't a problem, it was more of : _Why did grandfather choose Lesmana, among all the bodyguards and secretaries he had?_
_Ah right, I just remembered that Lesmana is the most loyal and obedient secretary and bodyguard_
_So, this old man only needs to prepare a wife that's easy for me to handle?! Haha_
Now he acted the same as his grandfather, locked Aruna up on purpose, just like grandfather locked grandmother up.
Grandmother rarely came out of the main house, same as his mother. It meant that the women in this family had to live behind closed doors in order for them to be safe.
Is this what it's called as: 'Lesmana's daughter is at stake'?.
.
.
"Is it possible? Aruna can live like his grandmother and mother?".
The blue-eyed man held his temple. He didn't find anything wrong with this biography for the time being. Instead, he found that his wife would be better not to have many activities outside. It must have tormented Aruna.
.

"Hendra, it's already time for a break. You haven't come out yet". Suddenly Surya appeared in front of him, patted his shoulder.
"There's a gift from your wife. This kid gets nicer".
Surya put Hendra's lunch on the table.
"She asked me to remind you to come home on time".
"Looks like your wedding is fun".
"Makes me want to get married, but with who?". He was confused.
Hendra's smiled at Surya's words.
"You'd better try looking for a woman". Hendra suggested.
"How do I look for a woman when my life constantly takes care of a stubborn man?". His eyes stared at Hendra.
"Why is it my fault?".
"Yes, because you're the source of the problem".
"You say that again, I'll make sure you'll regret it!".
"Maybe because my habits are formed by your words and threats, so I forgot to form myself and remember my needs".
"No need to blame your habits. Just find a woman that makes you fall in love. All your brain structures and functions will be messed up and forget all the habit patterns". Hendra seemed to be reflecting on himself.
"Wow, now you're good at talking about love. Makes me want to laugh".
"Hahaha". That secretary laughed out loud without further ado. His memory went back to a few months ago. Hendra wasn't like this. He was talking about something that he used to call rubbish.

"You know, I've lost my feelings towards you when you lay in hospital just because you were rejected by a woman. I feel that's the most dishonorable scene that I've found in you".
"Hahaha". He laughed out loud again.
"Don't ever say that or you'll feel worse than me".
"I don't know. I feel horrified instead". Surya got goosebumps for a moment, remembering how Hendra had to be injected with a sedative.
"Get married so people won't think that you're gay. Hahaha". Hendra replied to his secretary with worse words.
"Since that damn mayor also thought that I'm a gay and my couple is you.. Hahaha". Hendra's words this time were even worse.
"Damn. It means I have to look for a woman soon?!".
"Exactly. Before you become an old bachelor". Hendra insulted blatantly.
"If only you weren't my boss, I would curse: DAMN YOU!!".
"Hey. You already cursed me indirectly!! You're indeed a good talker".
"Yeah. Otherwise, I've been removed a long time ago..".
The next absurd talk happened along with Hendra's moves enjoying lunch that was sent by Aruna. Inside the lunch box, written with capital letters (HENDRA, YOU HAVE TO GO HOME ON TIME!)
The writing seemed to be transformed into Aruna's words with her adorable annoyed tone.

Beep beep beep
A call from her best friend on Magic Letter made Aruna so happy. This girl quickly took her handphone.
"Hello… Aruna, I've sent some designs from friends who've signed up for project design". Dea greeted Aruna cheerfully.
"Don't forget to choose Timi". Lily broke into the conversation.
"Is his design good?". Aruna asked.
"Ah. I'm a big zero when it comes to design. But he's so handsome and he has an athletic body". Lily was too excited.
"Crazy! Hahaha.. You're always like that".
"Come on, check!" Lily said
"Dea, do you think he's good?".
"I'm confused instead. Looks like he's already a professional".
"Isn't he wasting opportunity, if he's only on Magic Letter?". Dea said
"You always think too much, Dea. He has signed up here means he wants to be accepted by us". Lily was consistently excited.
"You don't know how big the chance for professional project design is. They can be comic artists. The pay is extraordinary. Or they can be character makers and some branding laboratories or even design slides. What I'm explaining is just some jobs that they can get". Dea contemplated seriously.

"Ah, I don't know.. Anyway, if he's accepted, I'll be working more excitedly". Lily was weird.
"What else do you need other than project design? Maybe Lily needs something? I mean, do you need friends for administration and our account's admin?". Aruna asked.
"Andin has been really helpful in administration lately. Oh, you haven't met Andin".
"Looks like we really need social media account admin, Aruna". Dea cut Lily's words short.
"Moreover, now our tasks on campus get crazier.. Don't forget to do it! I've sent a few tasks to catch up on your lessons. You'd better go to campus immediately!".
"When will you go to campus?". Dea asked.
"I don't know. Hendra hasn't let me yet". Aruna's voice got weaker.
"And I really can't get out of here before that person gives me permission. Now I'm trying my best so he can set me free from his castle".
"Hmm.. Are you depressed there?". Dea asked.
"Hey. Calm down, Dea.. Don't worry!!". Aruna caught Dea's worry.
"How many applicants are there? I haven't checked the files". Aruna changed the topic of conversation.
"Yeah.. Around 6 and Timi is indeed the most promising one". Dea answered.
"See. I've told you". Lily said.
"Where's Agus? I didn't hear his voice?".
"There he is..". Lily directed Dea's handphone towards Agus.
"Gus.. I want to talk..". Aruna teased.
"I'm busy. Don't disturb me". Agus avoided Dea's handphone.
"That kid has been nosy since morning. I don't know why". Lily said.
"So you don't want to talk to me, Gus??". Aruna asked.
"I said I'm busy".
_Don't let me talk to Aruna, I'm afraid I'll slip up_ Agus tried to avoid for good.
"So mean..". Aruna complained.
"Talk to Laras and Tito". Agus avoided.
"Yes.. Long time no say hello to Laras and Tito. How are those two kids?". Aruna asked.
"Hmm.. We're just a year apart". Tito objected to being considered as a kid.
"Hehe".
"Don't disturb them, Aruna. They're busy now. So many people are heartbroken and they're making pages of heartbroken letters for other people. Hahaha". Lily and Dea laughed, satisfied.
"What kind of business is this?! Really tormenting my mind". Tito complained.
"I don't have a boyfriend yet, but I'm always told to make love letters for other people. Hahaha". Laras laughed sadly at herself.
Their conversations were full of laughter and making fun of each other, only Agus who didn't make a sound.

"Do you know how Aruna is doing, Gus? How is she now? Is she okay?". Agus visited Damar after this IT kid did his madness. He tampered with Damar's old laptop that was left on Magic Letter. He searched and hacked Damar's email. He tried to predict which email was used by Damar on his handphone. Who knew that coding freak kid successfully found Damar's handphone location point?
"You're just like her.. Makes me have to answer the same question?".
_I don't want to talk about Aruna_
Their Magic Letter's founder was no longer an ordinary girl who was free like before. She was owned by a mysterious CEO now.
"So she's worried about me?". Damar stared blankly at the garden of Bay's house.
"I'm also worried about you?! Why do you never care about me?!"
"Seriously! You're next to me. And you're indeed unimportant".
"Aish! Already so pathetic like this, you're still the nosy Damar".
"Just worry about yourself now! Don't worry about other people. You're more pathetic than her. Since she must be taken care of by her husband".
"You're wrong, Gus". Damar threw a phrase that was understood by both.
_Yes! I know I was wrong, but I shouldn't have been honest_ Agus' heart even said so.
"What do you mean?". Agus pretended not to understand.
"Last time I met Aruna, she cried painfully. She looked traumatic. I'm afraid that person is the culprit".
"You mean?". This time Agus was really curious.
"That's not important. What's important now is how I can meet her".
"You'd better cancel your intention, Damar. She's already married".
"I know that marriage won't last long, so I dare to take this decision."
"I..". Agus was uncertain to convey Hendra's threat. It was on the tip of his tongue but he didn't reveal.
"Calm down! Don't forget, Damar is always resourceful".
"And a lot of stupidity".
"Why did you insult me?".
"Just because of a woman you want to die! If not stupid then what else!".

So I'm a cat, what now?
It seems I've reincarnated into a fantasy world as a cat. What now? This is my first publically published story, and I would love feedback in any form as I have no idea how well the quality of my writing holds up. This story will have light litRPG elements, though I won't dig into numbers much, since I don't enjoy fiddling with them. The tone will be generally light, and I willl probably try to throw some comedy in there as well. The beginning will be Slice of Life, and unless I come up with a longer plot that I like it will stay that way.

It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope.

Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama.
