After receiving the money from selling his phone, Arini also stepped back to walk the road. Sometimes he stopped his steps in front of the store or stalls on the roadside that he passed just to ask if there was a job vacancy for him.
However, just as he had thought before, a Junior High graduate like himself would be very difficult to find a job, what else in a big city. The minimum average education they seek is an equivalent High School graduate.
Arini looked so exhausted. Sweat has started to come out of the pores of the skin of the face and the entire body. The shirt he was wearing at the time looked wet. What's more today the eyes of the day are already right above his head.
Arini stops her steps in front of a store that is closing, to release her fatigue. The woman's eyes were now fixed on a boutique that stood majestically across the street.
Arini noticed the activity inside the boutique from a distance. He was very confident that not just anyone could apply for a job at that place. The work uniforms of the employees at the boutique were very clean and tidy. Not inferior to those who work in the office.
"Your imagination is too high, Arini. There's no way someone like you could work there! What are you graduates?" muttered Arini while smiling sinisterly staring at the brown map that he had been holding since.
A luxury car stopped right in front of the luxury boutique. A woman in fashionable clothes got out of the car and walked into the place.
Suddenly Arini's eyes caught a falling object that looks very shiny when exposed to the reflection of sunlight. The sparkling object fell down just as the fashionable woman walked into the boutique.
Arini was sure it was a piece of jewelry belonging to the woman. Unfortunately, the woman did not realize it at all.
"I'm sure it was the woman's jewelry. Looks like I have to take it and then return it to the Owner" Arini muttered.
Even though the weather was so hot. However, that right does not make Arini's spirit saggy to help others. Arini crossed the road while running small until finally he stood right in front of the shiny object.
It turned out to be true what Arini was thinking at that time. The shiny object is a beautiful bracelet jewelry with gemstones that adorn around it. Arini grabbed the bracelet then watched it closely.
The bracelet is very beautiful, Arini was very interested in seeing the beautiful and expensive objects. "I'm sure it must be very expensive" murmured Arini.
Without Arini realizing it, one of the employees at the boutique showed himself from behind the glass. The woman was aghast while yelling at her friends. "Eh, that's the bracelet, isn't it? Which is being held by that woman!" his screeches.
"Where, where, where!" The other employees flocked to see Arini who was still cool standing while holding the beautiful bracelet.
"Yes, right! That's the bracelet," the other replied.
Arini was so shocked, she did not know why the men pulled her hand so violently that she felt pain. "Ouch, sick! Why are you pulling my hand like this?!" peeking Arini with a surprised face.
"Shut up! You thief! luckily discovered," annoyed one of them with a cynical face looking at Arini.
"The thief? I'm not a thief!" Arini did not accept it when the woman called him a thief. He did not understand why the people suddenly called him a thief.
"What thief is he? Why are you still evading, isn't the evidence already in your hands" said the man as he took the beautiful bracelet from Arini's grasp.
"Yes, God! You guys misunderstood! I did not steal, I found this bracelet there and intend to return it with the owner of this bracelet" said Arini.
"Huh, excuses! It's been found out, isn't it, that's why you say it like that" annoyed the others.
Just then two security guards at the boutique approached them. The two men intend to secure Arini. Arini's face was deathly pale, cold sweat coming out from his temple.
"Yes God! What other trials are these?" Arini had shed tears and then wiped them quickly. He had promised himself that he would never cry again even though the ordeal was too much for him.
"Where is Madam?" ask one of the security guards.
"In his private room. The madam is calling her husband right now" replied one of the boutique employees.
"We wait for the Madam to finish, then we act against this woman," continued another security officer.
"It's a pity, the beauty of the work is turned away" said one of the boutique employees with a cynical smile to Arini.
"I'm not a thief! If you don't believe me, please check the CCTV. I'm sure a place as grand as this must have CCTV! And one more thing, I am poor and uneducated, but I can still tell which is my right and which is not!" Arini.
The woman who called it a thief, instantly silenced after hearing the answer from Arini.
