A Little Cupid's
17. Nonchalant
The man never admitted to liking her, nor did he ever express love for her. But his treatment really made others misunderstand.
Lily had never dated, she had only been close to a few of her male co-workers, and she rarely chatted with them for long. So he did not know at all, whether the special treatment that Varo gave him, signaled that the man wanted to have a serious relationship with him or indeed he was good to all his employees.
Varo wants to marry her, even the man has claimed her as a wife in front of his office employees and also his friends.
They talked about the wedding 3 months ago when they were in Palembang. But once they arrived in Jakarta to date, the man never discussed the matter again. He was just being indifferent as usual.
She must make me fall in love with her right!!!🤨
Lily holds Arion's hand which lately doesn't like to sit still. The little guy can already walk if his hands are in his hands and he continues to pull Lily's hands to take her around the house.
"3 months ago your father was busy in Bali. Last month in Jogja, now he even went to Korea, not jump-togjak-ngajak😒. What kind of father is that, cih!!!."
Varo has just opened a jewelry store in Bali and Jogja, in a month he can go there for up to 3 weeks to monitor the progress of his shop. While in Korea, she has other jobs besides taking care of her jewelry store.
As usual, the man asked her to call at 7am and 10pm. Her thing was, Rion seemed to be following that schedule. The little guy wakes up early and sleeps late. Rion won't sleep until he sees the man.
Lily called the man via video call and connected him to the television. Varo seemed to have just finished taking a shower. The man wasn't even shy about raising the call with just a towel.
"Reverse, I want to change!." Pinta the man relaxed.
😑Nevent to say, I also don't want to see😑
"I've already sent you a plane ticket in your email. Your passport is in my bedroom desk drawer. Don't bring a suitcase. Bring Rion's stuff as necessary. The flight's at 4 in the morning, and I'm going to bed. Call me as soon as you get here."
"….."😐the video call was broken just like that. Arion was even astonished from staring at the black television screen turning to Lily's bewildered face.
"So..why did you say what???"
🌺🌺
I'm in Korea…
That's it, the usual mutter that Lily uttered once she arrived at the Gingseng Country. He did not know much about KPop, and did not often watch Korean dramas. What he liked about the country was their food.
I'll make sure to taste as much Korean food as possible.
A man approached Lily and Arion with a friendly smile on his face. The girl only gawked when the man spoke in Korean.
By what the hell😑😑
Only when the man finally understood Lily did not answer his question. The man repeated his words in English.
"I am Lee Jae Wook, personal assistant director Kim Ming Kyu. Director Kim told me to pick up the madam."
"….." Since when did I become madam😡
"We're not going straight to the hotel??" Lily asked as they passed the hotel that should be their place to stay.
Jae Wook shook his head. "Director Kim asked me to take Madam to the distro, 15 minutes away, if Madam wants a break, please. I'll wake the lady later.
Lily just nodded and smiled awkwardly. The mistress' call really felt foreign to her.
They arrived at the distro 15 minutes later. Lily who carries Arion in followed by Jae Wook, the man becomes a language translator between himself and the distro waitress.
"I'll wait by the cashier's desk. Please choose your clothes comfortably." The man said in a friendly tone.
Arion sat quietly inside the baby stroller so the girl was easier to get around the distro. He went to a place that sold baby clothes, he took some thick animal character sweatshirts that would look very cute in Arion's wear.
Afterwards, Lily moved to a place that sold adult clothes. He took 3 pairs of hoodies, 3 long shirts, 3 long pants, 2 pairs of pajamas and half a dozen underwear. Once they return to the cashier, Jae Wook's position has been replaced by Varo.
"We've been here for 2 weeks." The man said cynically when he saw the clothes Lily had taken.
"I just wash it and wear it again. I don't know how much these clothes cost, and I don't bother to know (because I definitely won't buy them later). Well, just pay!!." The girl's orders.
Once it will pay, Varo returns in protest. "Only for you??, For me where??, I pay and you do not buy for me!!!."
😡"No matter!!!, just take mine, I also want to wear new clothes!!."
😑😑. Finally Lily returned to the distro with Varo who pushed Stroller Arion.
"You choose the same color. I also want a hoodie, long sweatshirt, trousers and….
"You want me to choose your underwear as well??😒😒."
Varo smiled casually. "The Size L." The man replied short.
Lily simply ignored that answer. Bodo greatly!!
After the man paid, he chose to carry Arion while Lily carried the groceries to the car. There is no manner at all.
"Make your schedule for 2 weeks. Jae Wook will accompany you around." Said the man as they entered the car.
Lily glanced at Jae Wook who was focused on being a driver, "you didn't want us to go for a walk??."
Varo. "I'm busy."
Oh.ok…
They arrived at the housing complex in Gang Nam, the house was larger than Varo's house in Indonesia and the grounds were also wider, and of course there were bodyguards in each corner of the house.
"I have to get back to the office. If there's anything call. All the food is in the refrigerator. I want to eat kare and grilled ribs for dinner."
"…." - ".Lily just nodded then got out of the car, the groceries were already brought in and placed in the guest room by Jae Wook.
"You….
Varo wants to ask if there is anything else Lily wants to buy or if the girl wants to take a walk later in the afternoon. But Lily came down first and took Arion home.
"Forget it!!." The man then told Jae Wook to drive his car.
🌺🌺
First of all, he never talked about it again.
Second.he's busy, maybe.
He seems to be popular in Korea, until his face appears on the TV screen. What the hell is he??, Filming commercials?, Cih!!.
The fourth one, why am I waiting for him at midnight like this?, Why is the phone not active?, I why the hell??
Lily took care of the food that she heated 4 hours ago. He had been sitting there since 8 pm, usually Varo came home from work at 7 pm, but it seems like the work schedule of the man was different from the one in Indonesia.
Or maybe he's overtime??
Finish cleaning the dining table. Lily turned off the TV and went back to the room. The girl decided to sleep next to Arion.
The morning arrived so quickly. As soon as she woke up and finished bathing Arion, Lily came out of the room for breakfast. But when he saw the empty dinner plate on the table, the girl stopped.
There's a memo there. The neat writing of the cold man he knew.
'Jae Wook will accompany you for a walk. I'm overtime'
Reading the memo made Lily take a deep breath. Then I looked at Arion.
"How about we find papa just now??"
Arion just stared back at Lily with his innocent smile. And the girl once again took a deep breath.
