"You're still not satisfied with that slap from Rafael?" Yuni raised her voice when she saw Rara making a mistake again. The girl had just broken one of her favorite plates.
Rara stifled her screams by biting her lower lip. The girl continued to pick up every shard on the floor. She had just been slapped by Rafael for spilling her coffee, even the pain on her cheek was still very much there. But now she was already being scolded by Yuni for breaking a plate.
She had done it carefully, but it was bad luck that the plate had fallen and ended up like that. Rara already knew that she would be scolded, so she let Yuni continue to nag in front of her.
"Do you want to make up for it? I'm sure you won't be able to make up for it!" Yuni shouted at Rara again.
The middle-aged woman kicked some of the broken plates down. This made it even more difficult for Rara to pick up the pieces.
Rara rose from her crouch, the girl throwing the shard into the trash. "Sorry. I won't do it again, it was just a small mistake. Don't make it bigger," Rara begged earnestly.
The girl really hoped that Yuni would not do anything more to her. It felt like her body was very tired from all this, she couldn't stand it anymore if she had to feel pain all over her body. Rara could not resist at all.
A slap landed on Rara's left cheek, the girl's face turned to the side due to the hardness of Yuni's slap. The girl endured tremendous pain, the slap given by Rafael was still there and now it had to be added with a slap from Yuni. It really felt extraordinary.
"Just be careful if you make the same mistake again. I can do even worse. I could hurt you so badly that you will never forget it," Yuni threatened. The middle-aged woman's face looked very serious and full of emotion.
Rara's eyes were so painful from the tightness in her chest that her tears rebelled again and again. But Rara strengthened herself not to cry in front of Yuni or Rafael. She had to be stronger than before, so that Rara could find a way to get out of the prison soon.
Rara could not stand all the bad treatment any longer. She was completely innocent, but why was she getting all this treatment? Rafael should have investigated before doing this to Rara. Besides, there were still so many irregularities from Nara's death, but Rafael and Yuni were busy torturing Rara.
"Now finish your work quickly and properly. I don't want to hear that you repeat the same mistakes again. I have nothing to lose by hiring you," Yuni ordered firmly. The middle-aged woman immediately returned to her seat at the dining table and watched Rara's performance.
Meanwhile, the girl returned to her duties. This time, she didn't want to make any more mistakes. She didn't want to get slapped again because it was very painful. Silently, Rara shed tears again. She felt very low and in her loneliness she missed her home, especially Arfan.
"How are you, Father? Did you take the medicine?"
After finishing her homework, Rara was taken back to her room. The girl was pondering in front of the iron-fenced window, which seemed to have been adjusted to prevent Rara from escaping.
In her thoughts, Rara searched for a way to get out of Rafael's house. But the problem was that all these houses were equipped with CCTV, only Iren could or would be trapped in this house again. Rara really hoped that the plan she might come up with later would work out.
For now, all she had to do was wait for Rafael to let his guard down and everything would be fine. Rara would continue to watch from her bedroom window, just in case she saw Rafael going out, it would be a golden opportunity for her.
"I'll be right there, Mom."
"It's going to be a while, isn't it?"
"I don't know, it won't hurt me to see him for a while."
"All right. Hurry back because I'm going to bed after this, taking care of that girl makes me very tired."
Rara heard the conversation from behind her door, she was happy that there was a chance for her to try to escape from this house. The girl couldn't wait to be free.
About fifteen minutes later, Rafael was finally seen leaving the house. Rara immediately looked for a key that she found in the drawer of the bedside table, and tried the key to see if it was indeed the key to her room. This made it easier for Rara to get out quickly. However, Rara had to stay alert because Yuni was still at home. If the middle-aged woman suddenly came out of the room and caught Rara, then everything would be exposed.
Rara looked right and left as she left the room, her steps slightly muffled so as not to make any noise. Her eyes were constantly searching for Yuni's whereabouts, she was afraid that the middle-aged woman could come at any moment.
When Rara arrived downstairs, the girl had to stay on guard. It seemed that her plan had worked this time. Rara was happy that she could finally get out of this terrible prison.
"Are you planning to escape?"
The question suddenly made Rara feel very surprised, and she turned her head. Behind her, Rafael and Yuni were already standing with their arms folded across their chests while looking at Rara with frivolous gazes.
The girl felt very surprised because earlier she had clearly seen Rafael leaving the house in his car. However, now they were already inside. It seemed like Rara had indeed been trapped in this situation.
"Looks like you'll have to re-plan your escape from here, because this time I caught you red-handed," Rafael said.
Rara was just silent, she didn't expect the situation that happened. She had been so happy to get out of her room, but now all her dreams were shattered.
"Quick, drag the girl back into the room," Yuni ordered very firmly.
Without another word, Rafael approached Rara. Then he dragged the girl's body into another room than before.
"Let me go, let me out of here," Rara snapped.
Rafael didn't care, he just wanted to take Rara into the room and lock her in.
"Feel all this. This is your reward for trying to escape," Rafael growled.
