THOUGHT IT WERE NOTHING
"Let's just say that that night never happened," David said, placing the check on the table. He looked at Amelia, he saw tears starting to trickle down Amelia's two beautiful blinds. However, the girl looked very calm, different from the reaction she gave the first time.
Amelia just looked at David who was sitting in front of her with mixed feelings. She realized one thing, in David's heart there was no love at all. Everything that happened was just a mistake. The Fate that has played with them.
Slowly, Amelia wiped her tears. She took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.
"Go home." David arched his eyebrows, staring at Amelia in confusion.
"You mean?"
"Was my word unclear? You said it yourself. Let's just say that night's incident never happened. Okay, I'll obey you, just pretend that nothing happened between us. Now, go home," Amelia said in a flat tone. . David felt awry again. However, he couldn't do anything about it. David immediately got up and walked away.
After seeing David leave and close the door, Amelia could only sit quietly on her sofa, crying. She grabbed the check that was lying on the table when she saw the nominal Amelia just smiled bitterly.
"I am not as beautiful as Karla, Lord. But, is happiness only for those who have thin and slender bodies? Does a person who has a fat body like me have no right to enjoy happiness?"

Everything seemed like nothing had happened. A week after David gave her the check Amelia went back to work as usual. What's more, Karla will soon release a new single, of course, Amelia has to be busy, right? Meanwhile, Karla only has to memorize the lyrics of the song so that she doesn't get it wrong when she has lip sing.
"Thank you, Mel. I'm sure Karla's single this time will also sell well in the market," said David after the recording was over. Amelia did not answer, she just smiled a little and went out of the studio.
"What's wrong with you, huh?"
Amelia turned and found Karla standing with her hands on her hips.
"Are you crazy, Sis? What happened to me?" asked Amelia.
"Since the concert in Manado yesterday you were lazy to practice, and you also didn't do what I usually ordered. You don't need money anymore?"
Amelia chuckled, "I don't need you, Sis. But, on the other hand, you need me. Can you sing as well as I do? Only people with impaired hearing will listen to you sing. If I'm not there you can't do anything. Because So far, all you have been selling is the beauty and beauty of your body and face, "said Amelia sarcastically.
Karla glared in disbelief, annoyed that she immediately threw a slap right on Amelia's cheek.
"What is this?!"
Karla and Amelia looked at the same time and saw David standing and staring at them sharply. Karla immediately walked over and hugged David.
"I think you have to find a replacement for Amelia. She's acting up a lot now. Even though you told her to train me, right. But, she didn't do it. She's going too far," said Karla.
Instead of pampering Karla like he used to do, David let go of her hand.
"You have to appreciate Amelia, without her golden voice you would not be famous like now," said David.
"Y-you ... You're defending her, baby?"
"I'm not defending her, I'm just saying what is happening right now. Never mind, you better memorize your newest single. The day after tomorrow I'll send a vocal teacher to your apartment," David decided. Karla just stared, while Amelia, who didn't want to bother, immediately stepped out.

Amelia repeatedly stared at the calendar in her room. She should have had her period. But these three months she never had her monthly guest. Her heart is restless. It's been three months since that incident. And this morning she has also prepared several Tespacks that she bought from the pharmacy yesterday. However, the girl was just pacing back and forth biting her finger. She felt scared and a little confused. What if the results are positive as expected? Amelia hesitated, but in the end, she went to the bathroom and did a little test in the morning.
And, the girl was shocked absurdly when the five Tespacks she bought showed line two which was a sign that she was positive for pregnancy. Amelia felt her world collapse at once, suddenly she felt hatred for herself. The girl started screaming hysterically and throwing whatever was near her, she even unconsciously clenched her fist and hit her dresser until it broke. There was no pain even though her hand was bleeding. She let go of all her emotions so that in just a moment her apartment was in a mess.
Tired of tantrums, the girl threw herself onto her bed and started crying bitterly.
"Why God! Why are you giving Karla perfection while I am? You gave me a body like a rice sack with lumps of fat everywhere like this. I just have no interest in looking at my body in the mirror, and now you are giving me this kind of trial, you. evil Lord! ' screamed Amelia sadly.
I don't know how long she went berserk and cried. She ignored the sound of the doorbell and the repeated ringing of the telephone. She also doesn't care about her injured hand. Until finally the girl got tired of herself. Slowly she got up to the bathroom. She filled the bathtub with warm water and began to soak. Once satisfied, Amelia dried her body and treated the wound. She opened her wardrobe, there was a small box in the cupboard. Slowly she took the little box out and put it on her bed.
She opened the box and took out its contents. There is her passport and visa as well as several savings books. All this time she has always been thrifty, with such a fat body Amelia has never been interested in buying fashionable clothes because surely there is nothing to fit her. The girl then grabbed a check that David had given her three months ago. She rubbed her stomach slowly, "We're going to get out of here and start a new life. It's useless if I tell your Daddy about your presence. He will order to throw you out with his money, dear."
Amelia took a deep breath. Her determination was made up, she knew where to go now. She immediately grabbed her suitcase and packed her clothes. All the important papers including her diploma she put in a suitcase. Meanwhile, she put her passbook, ATM, passport, and visa as well as the check, David gave, in another bag. Her determination was made to go and start a new life.
