Nicko closed the old library warehouse. He was watching the surroundings, hopefully no one would see them enter the room. Giara was surprised not to play, because suddenly Nicko instead dragged him into this old room.
"Sir Nicko, what is it, sir? Why bother me?" Giara's upset not playing.
"Giara, this is the safest place for us to talk."
"Talk what else, sir? Mr Nicko kekeh maksa I make a thank you offer Father? Sorry, sir, I can't! Mr. Nicko can't possibly meet all my needs!" jakt Giara.
"No, not that! I don't care if you accept my offer or not. I'm actually just worried about you, Giara! But unfortunately, you overjudged me bad."
"What indeed? What do you want me to say?"
"Giara, listen to me, your name is already in the red streak. The dean and campus advisor know your profession. I just heard it from Bu Sinta, a lecturer in economics. He said, if anyone reports you, and now the campus counselor is looking for stronger evidence to convince everyone" Nicko said worriedly.
Giara. He looked at Nicko. Between believing and not believing, is Nicko's speech really true? Is it true, if he was marked by the campus?
"Boy lied, right?"
"Why am I lying? It's pointless. I'm serious, Giara. You should be aware, if you will get in trouble if you are constantly being the sugar baby Om-Om out there. They're watching you. Don't get kicked out of college for this job! I told you, this job of yours has a very high risk! Do not come because of this you can not pursue your ideals! Didn't you enter this campus because you got help from your school first? Do you want to waste it on Giara?"
Giara. Nicko's words confused her. He realized, if this work is indeed at risk. Giara thinks his identity will remain secure. But apparently, the college is watching him. Who would report Giara?
If not being a sugar baby, how could Giara live up to her life and finance her road treatment? Giara has tried other jobs, such as selling and working part time in the store. But all of that cannot meet the cost of his life.
"I can't stop being a sugar baby. I'm comfortable with my current position. Mr. Nicko has no idea how hard I've been trying to survive! No one knows how hard I would be if I didn't work like this. I am the backbone of the family! I have to pay the cost of routine maternal road treatment every two weeks. I don't have health insurance, nobody covers my mom's illness. No bpjs, no KIS that I can use to ease my mother's medical expenses."
Nicko. He looked at Giara, Giara's eyes glazed over as he said so. Maybe it's true, if Giara is depressed. He had to do his job to survive.
"I told you, accept my offer, and just be a sugar baby for me! Study well, and I'll finance everything until you graduate! Don't ask me why I'm asking you this, because I don't know myself. My heart is only moved to help you! And strangely, every single thing you do, I'm always worried. At first, I was so upset with you. But for a long time, I was always haunted by worry about you, Giara! Can't you consider my offer? I'm not good to you, Giara?"
Giara. He couldn't have accepted Nicko's offer. How could Giara accept Nicko's offer. It would be a shame to ask something from Nicko. They're not that close to doing each other.
How could Giara use Nicko constantly. It would feel very awkward, if Giara did. But, if he gets kicked out of college, what?
"I can't do it, sir. Mr. Nicko is nothing to me. It can't be that easy to use you. Let it be, Father don't care about me, because I don't care about you either. I will live my life as usual. If I have to be expelled, maybe my path should be like that. It's okay, because I chose to give up on what God gave me. Most importantly, I can afford your treatment."
Again, Giara gave up and seemed indifferent to the threat before his eyes. Nicko is upset, because Giara is so stubborn. Though at this time, Giara is being noticed by the campus leadership, because this action will certainly contaminate the good name of the university.
Deg. Giara was surprised because Nicko knew the biodata he had written when he was about to enter this campus. Nicko knows where? Did Nicko accidentally find out all about Giara?
"Do you know where the biodata came from? I only wrote it when Ospek first. And I guess, Mr. Nicko hasn't been a lecturer here yet" Giara was a little surprised.
"I saw your resume in the library. I've always been intrigued by children like you. That's why I'm looking for his year. Turns out, you're a good kid, Giara. You are just misguided in determining your life" Nicko said with glowing eyes.
"really?"
Nicko's words were very warm, and left Giara touched. Apparently, behind Nicko's cold and cuey attitude, he was very attentive to Giara. Why would Nicko have to pay so much attention to a bad girl like Giara?
"Giara, I don't know you, and I don't have any feelings for you. But, you got me interested in meddling in your life. Because, your life is so different from other children in general. Why choose that difficult path? What you're doing is so risky."
"I want to make my mother happy, but the way I did it was wrong. But, this way, I can do it. By staying in college, and paying for his treatment," the tears fell unstoppably, Giara cried, she couldn't hold back those tears from now on.
"Cry, if crying can make you feel calm. Put all that sadness away, and try to think clearly, is it possible that your life will always be like this, Giara? One day, you will regret it, if you keep doing this path." said Nicko.
Should I accept Mr Nicko's offer to be his personal sugar baby? But, why did Mr Nicko ask me to do that? Does he not love his money? Giara said in his heart.
"I can't possibly incriminate you, sir. I am nothing to you. Why should Mr Nicko keep asking me to be your personal sugar baby?"
A tough question for Nicko. However, all this Nicko did because the Queen so wanted Giara's presence. Nicko's son is the one who causes Nicko to keep watching Giara.
"Because of my son ..."
Giara reflexively looked at Nicko,
"Mister Nicko's son?"
“Yes, he wants to see you again. He seems to like you, so my parents forced me to invite you to come to my house. That's why I'm asking you to be my sugar baby. Just to please my son, Giara. Perhaps, you can also be a Big Brother for her ..., perhaps," Nicko said Big Brother was so doubtful and unsure.
"W-Rigger?" Giara nervous. There was a strange feeling when Nicko said that.
Should I accept being this handsome duda baby sugar? Just pretending in front of his son?
