"Huh, model? What are my advantages? Is he out of his mind?"
Anastasya carefully examined the reflection of his body in front of the glass. Shabby clothes and makeup alakadarnya, indeed felt nothing interesting on him. But why the woman named Sarah just asked her to join a modeling agency. Really questionable payut. Especially with the origin and also the history of education that does not meet the standards of the models.
"Ah, forget it. I'm sure if Miss Sarah's invitation, it's just a joke."
Exit the room with a half-bent face. The girl in the brown suit rushed to open the shop in the morning. His thin hands began to move agilely, wiping dust grains and also plastic waste scattered in the shop area.
"But if it's just a joke, why is the woman desperate to come here, and not the first time anyway" murmured Anastasya lirih.
"Ana, what's wrong?"
The girl gasped. His body was slightly tiptoed with a chest fluttering.
"Mothers. Just startle."
"I'm sorry" the middle-aged woman said. "Your face, why is it so sour. Is there a problem?" The owner of the shop looked at Anastasya's face which was not as happy as usual day.
The girl breathed a heavy sigh. So far, he doesn't want to cover up his feelings for the only person closest to him now.
"Do you remember that beautiful woman who came to the store the other day?"
"Which one?"
"That beautiful model."
A moment of thought, the middle-aged woman nodded after being able to recall it.
"What does that woman have to do with covering your face?"
"He made me an offer."
The shop owner knitted a pair of his eyebrows.
"What offer? Not weird, right?" The owner of the shop brought his body closer to Anastasya. Want to hear clearly about Anastasya's conversation with Sarah the other day that he could not steal heard.
"She invited me to join the modeling agency that houses her."
"Already expected," replied the tavern owner quickly.
"I mean mother? Didn't you listen to our conversation?"
The middle-aged woman nodded. However, the look on his face held anxiety.
"Look at you, Anastasya."
Spontaneous Anastasya frowned. Not understanding the speech of the middle-aged woman before him now.
"You're beautiful. Your body is good, your age is still very young. I'm sure Sarah's only coming here to see you up close, before she decides to pull you over to be a model."
Anastasya. He stared at the face of the shop owner who had just spoken without blinking.
"Mom can guess. There's no way Sarah would've set foot in this place if not for no reason." The middle-aged woman spoke loudly. He only guessed, but he was sure that his presumption was indeed the truth.
"Mother, is that true? Then how should I?" The girl was worried.
"All decisions are in your hands Ana. You must know what's best. Not just for you, but for your family."
Interject chat. Suddenly the figure being talked about started to enter the tavern.
"Excuse me" said Sarah softly as usual.
"Miss Sarah." Anastasiah rose from his position, and drew closer to Sarah. "Is there anything you want to order?" connect the girl then.
Sarah commented on her sweetest smile to Anastasya, as well as to the shopkeeper who was still sitting in his place again.
"Ah no."
Sarah looked around, before she turned to Anastasya again.
"Can we talk both. Sorry, but not in this place. How's it?"
Anastasya was silent for a while before shifting her gaze towards the tavern owner.
"Separ Miss. I'll ask the shop owner's mother for permission first. Whether he allows it or not." Honestly hesitating Anastasya dragged a step towards the shop owner's mother. However, it is impossible to ignore Sarah. Afraid that the woman would find him arrogant.
******
This is where Anastasya and Sarah are. A Cafe that Anastasya has never been to in his entire life. The food and drinks ordered are in front. Sarah was unceasingly staring at Anastasya who looked amazed by the surrounding scenery.
The girl nodded, and grabbed the drink she ordered and then drank it with a stiff movement.
Sarah was thin, I don't know what she meant.
"You're so stiff. Is this the first time you've entered a place like this?"
Anastasya landed back his drinking glass after finishing half of its contents.
"Yes Miss. It's the first time Ana comes in and enjoys food in a place like this" Anastasya replied honestly.
Sarah nodded a few times.
"For my offer the other day, how come, are you interested?"
Anastasya was silent for a moment. He still doubts. Moreover, he had not been able to discuss it to the end of the shop owner who had given him a place to live.
"Of course, I still have doubts."
The woman with thick makeup polish was commenting on a thin smile.
"Why?"
"As Miss sees it, there is no advantage whatsoever to me. If forced, it could be that I'll just be the subject of people's jokes." Anastasya exposes the doubts he harbors. It doesn't make sense for Sarah to keep on barking.
Sarah gave a faint chuckle and shaken her head.
"What do you mean by being someone else's joke?." Sarah never thought. "Look at what you've got. You're beautiful, your skin is good and your posture is proportionate to the right size."
Anastasya was silent.
"If it's an education issue, you calm down. Did you just pass Junior High?"
Anastasya nodded and said, "No, I'm a high school graduate."
"Pretty good. After all, there are many models whose education is the same as yours, so you don't have to worry about that. So how'd you decide?"
Anastasya took a slow breath and took it off slowly. He was worried enough to make a decision.
"In this city, I have no one but Ms. Rina the owner of the tavern who is already willing to accommodate and feed me. So sorry miss, I refused."
Anastasya's stern remarks, apparently did not make Sarah shrink.
"If you're worried about housing, take it easy. I have an empty apartment you can live in without having to pay for it."
Anastasia. Not happy with Sarah's tone that seemed pushy. What the woman actually saw of him. To insist and not give up on continuing to seduce him.
"Indeed I need a place to stay, miss. But I am aware and know myself, where I must live without being a burden to others."
Sarah's face turned sour.
"Alright, you're pretty stubborn apparently. After this, I will no longer force. But listen to me." Sarah confirmed her words.
"You're from the village, I'm sure your goal in the city is to make money, right? Before you rejected my offer, at least you remembered the parents or sisters who hung their lives on you. If I accept my offer, I'll guarantee you a decent life and certainly your family."
Honestly, Anastasya was getting tempted. But, on what basis does he believe Sarah's words will really be done.
"If I accept, will the lady guarantee the truth of all the words that come from the lips of the lady?"
Sarah smiled wryly.
"of course. Even if you're inexperienced at all, but I promise I'll guide you in the future."
The beautiful girl rubbed naturally. Still worried about making a decision.
"Let me talk about it first with Ms. Rina. Once I'm sure, I'll see the lady again."
"All right, no problem. But remember, life in the world is not free, miss," said Sarah, touching the tip of Anastasya's chin before leaving the cafe by leaving a few pieces of rupiah on the table.
Anastasya only sighed deeply while looking at Sarah's back which began to drift away.
Right, everybody needs money. Isn't it for the money I can be in this city right now.
Anastasya's mind went crazy. What steps will be taken. Not wanting to be rash, he also did not want to be selfish by only thinking about himself. After leaving, the innocent and unpretentious girl also rose up to leave the cafe without first spending the food ordered by Sarah. Although his stomach was very hungry, but the feeling seemed to evaporate with the departure of Sarah who left him with a letter of disappointment.
