Part 24

"What's wrong, In?" said Cecilia as soon as she picked up the incoming call from Indri. He also let Carlos put his nightgown back on. Last night's incident and Carlos' confession were enough for tonight as a binder so that the man was no longer serious in having a relationship with his mother.

“I-I need your help, Cecilia. Can you come here, it concerns my mother.”

"What's wrong with mom?" Cecilia jumped when she heard Indri crying and saying her mother's name. “Is your mother okay? Is his condition getting worse?”

"Everything is true, that's why you please come to my house right now," Indri's voice sounded broken with a feeling of great fear and sadness.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Cecilia hurried to end the call and turned to Carlos.

“Dad,”

"What is it?" asked Carlos, the man seemed to be putting his clothes back on.

"Dad, I'm going to leave for a while to Indri's house. He said he was in big trouble and it involved his mother. He is the only friend I have and family to me. Will Daddy let me out?”

"Of course." Carlos grabbed the car keys that were on the nightstand as well as the oversized hoodie. "Wear this." Daddy will take you to Indri's place.

"But I want to go to the room for a while, okay, Dad. There's no way I'm not wearing anything inside.” Cecilia bit her lower lip, a little embarrassed to say that it would be rude to leave under circumstances like now. If at home Cecilia dared to dress openly like that, outside of course she would be very, very awkward and afraid that other people would harass her.

It was different when she was with Carlos, she felt safe even though her actions were wrong.

"Yes, put on your underwear first. Daddy's waiting in the car."

"All right, Daddy." Cecilia quickly ran, not forgetting to grab her cell phone again to contact Indri.

"Already?" asked Carlos looking at Cecilia. There was nothing different about the girl's appearance. Still wearing the nightgown and oversized hoodie from earlier.

"Enough, Daddy." Cecilia took off her nightgown as soon as she got to the car. "I'm already wearing underwear so it's safe under control," he joked a little to lighten the mood.

"Let's go." Carlos started the car's engine, cutting through the streets of the capital which looked still busy even though the night was approaching.

"That's Daddy's house." Cecilia pointed to a simple house at the end of the complex. It was quite quiet there because Indri's residence was far from the other houses.

"All right, Daddy, what are you waiting here for?"

"Daddy just wait here, I'm only a moment. At most, Indri needs a vehicle to bring her mother back to the hospital.” That was in Cecilia's mind.

The girl rushed downstairs and entered Indri's house. From where he was waiting for Carlos, he looked around, saw the situation in the complex that was getting quiet. His brows knit together when he saw a car parked in front of Indri's house.

He knows the car very well. A co-worker's luxury car. A middle-aged man with a reputation for womanizing and having too many sugar babies to squander his money on. Since seeing the car, Carlos begins to feel that something is wrong at Indri's house. He quietly went downstairs and entered while the door was unlocked so that Carlos was free to do whatever he wanted at Cecilia's friend's house.

"You drink this first. I see you're in a hurry and out of breath." Indri's hands shook and handed Cecilia a glass of water.

Cecilia, who didn't have the slightest suspicion of Indri, of course, gulped down the drink. Even though he felt quite strange seeing Indri wearing a nightgown exactly like him. The girl's bed also looked messy unlike when she often visited there. Indri seemed neat and didn't like messy things, but now Cecilia arrived in a room that was as messy as Indri's.

A few minutes passed, Indri still him. In Cecilia Indri's mind, she needed time to tell a story, so she kept silent and just waited.

“In, what exactly is going on that you asked me to come. Now I'm here, but you just stay quiet.”

Brakk!!

Cecilia flinched. Before Indri could answer his question, the sound of the bedroom door closing tightly took him by surprise. From that door, Cecilia saw a middle-aged man wearing only shorts, locking and staring longingly at the both of them.

Cecilia stuttered, got up and took a few steps away. Didn't expect that Indri was not alone in the room. He was with this middle-aged man.

"Indri, tell me what happened?" Cecilia was really scared right now. Indeed she wanted to give herself to Carlos, but not to this pot-bellied man.

“I-I'm sorry Cecilia.” Indri sobbed. "I'm no longer a girl so my pay is not enough to pay for mother's treatment. This man wants a sealed woman so he'll give me money for mom's surgery. I was confused and didn't know who to turn to for help, so I was forced to sell you.”

“W-what? Say it one more time.” Cecilia stared blankly at Indri, without stopping her steps to back away from the old man.

"I apologize. I was forced to sell you Cecilia.”

Cecilia blinked her eyes. Dizziness started to haunt him. "I can't believe you could do this to me." Don't ask again how hurt Cecilia is right now, what's more, she realizes that the drink Indri gave her wasn't just any drink.

He realized there was a trap in the drink, so he would serve the man.

"Forgive me." Indra was crying. Sorry was all he could say to Cecilia. He was completely blind in heart blind eyes, did not know what else to do. Her mother's life is at stake at this point, so Indri is desperate to make Cecilia a sacrifice.

“Now you go out and leave me here with him!” The man ordered Indri before he caught Cecilia's body, which was limp due to the dizziness that was attacking her. Seeing how beautiful and dense Cecilia's body is, more than Indri, of course the man is even more tasteful. His desire was immediately sparked even though Indri had served him twice.

Cecilia's hoodie was forced off. The man was getting more and more appetizing and couldn't wait to enjoy Cecilia's body.

“F-all right.” Indri got up from where she was sitting, her body shaking to open the lock on her room.

"What did you do to my son!!" Carlos shouted as he pushed roughly the door to the room, without caring that Indri was also pushed and fell because of his actions.

Carlos' dark eyes dragged the middle-aged man out and threw him onto a table.

“Fuck you two!!” He quickly hugged Cecilia who was lying limp, almost unconscious because of Indri's actions.

"Dad, it hurts," whispered Cecilia before completely losing consciousness. I don't know what medicine Indri gave that caused Cecilia to end up in such a tragic way.

Carlos carried Cecilia. “I guarantee you all will end up in a prison cell!” threatened Carlos, pointing at Indri and the middle-aged man in turn. “Especially for you, who dare to look for trouble with me. I guarantee that starting tomorrow your company's shares will plummet." Carlos gave threats before taking Cecilia out of the house.

Indri cried even more when she saw Cecilia leaving, which meant there was no way for her to pay for her mother's operation.

Cecilia why, Dad?” Vano rushed to meet Carlos who was carrying Cecilia to his room. The man decided to lay Cecilia in her room, so that later when Margaret came home she wouldn't think anything wrong about the two of them if Carlos took Cecilia to his own room.

Of course, it will be a big question for Margaret later why her daughter was able to stay in the same room as her.

"Later Daddy will tell you the whole story, now you take good care of him. Daddy will take care of something. Daddy doesn't want to let this problem drag on and the perpetrators go free,” said Carlos as he laid Cecilia down and covered her body with a blanket.

Leaving the girl with Vano. He would take care of Indri first before checking further on how Cecilia was doing.

“What's wrong with Cecilia, Dad? Should I call the doctor?”

“Good idea.” Carlos raised his thumb and closed the door to Cecilia's room.

Seeing Cecilia's condition that was not well, Vano immediately contacted their family doctor, to check Cecilia's condition so that nothing serious happened to the girl.

While waiting, Vano sat beside Cecilia, waiting for the girl to wake up so she would know what really happened, why her father could come with her in an unconscious state.

And Vano is sure that currently Cecilia is not asleep, but under the influence of drugs.

"It seems like your adopted sister took too much sleeping medication that she almost overdosed."

Vano was of course shocked to hear the doctor's statement. "I have taken his blood to be tested in the laboratory because from my preliminary analysis it is not only sleeping pills that are consumed, but also desire-enhancing drugs."

Just hearing that Cecilia had taken a large dose of sleeping medicine, Vano was shocked, especially when he heard that the medicine was mixed with other drugs. The more I don't understand what Vano is going on.

His thoughts immediately turned to his father, who had come with Cecilia a few hours ago.

"So there's no need to take him to the hospital, Doctor?" The doctor shook his head.

"For now, Cecilia's condition is stable, she just needs rest. If he doesn't wake up tomorrow morning, you can take him to the hospital for re-diagnosis. I will also send the lab results and for the time being Cecilia will have to put on an IV so she can put an antidote into her body.”

"Okay Doctor, do whatever can make Cecilia's condition recover as before."

"Okay." The doctor started to do his job. Vano just stood watching the doctor's work. He really hoped that Cecilia was fine so there was no need to take her to the hospital. He also tried to contact Carlos several times, but there was no answer at all.

I don't know where her father went, he was in such a hurry, he didn't have time to explain what happened to Cecilia. Even though Cecilia's condition was very bad, it was impossible to leave Cecilia for even a second.

Vano pulled out a dressing table chair and placed it next to Cecilia's bed. Holding the girl's hand, looking at her beautiful face sleeping in sleep. This was the first time Vano saw Cecilia sleeping. The beautiful girl looked peaceful, not the slightest burden could be seen on her face.
