Ms. Merly looked at the girl sitting next to her intently. He wondered why his grandson would get to know and befriend Andini, whose appearance showed that the girl was not from among them.
It's nothing, he just wants to know how they met ? the rest of Ms. Merly strongly believed that Joseph could not get along with people carelessly. Andini was the only woman he was introduced to. And as far as Bu Merly knew, Yusuf had not had any close female friends. That means, the girl with a cute appearance is very different and has a special attraction for her grandson.
"Andini, Yusuf says you're in trouble. They are in trouble and need a place to stay. If you want, just stay in this house. There is an empty room above. You must be at home because in this house there are two other grandchildren, his brother Joseph. Sometimes there are even cousins who stay. Home is rame." Ms. Merly told me with sparkling eyes. The old man looked happy. "But right now all the grandchildren are on vacation. Maybe tomorrow we'll just go home."
Andini smiled as she grumbled. Thanks to his grandmother Yusuf's friendly attitude, he was no longer tense.
"Especially if his parents Yusuf returned to Indonesia, the atmosphere became more rame again !" a sense of happiness and longing lurked in Ms. Merly's heart.
"Where are they now ?"
"In Japan, continued the business of the late Yusuf. So, do you want to stay with us ?"
"If you don't mind, I'll let you hitch a ride in this house. I am confused where to go ? I'm willing to help clean up or cook. I can do other tasks too."
"No, no ! you are a friend of Joseph, not a servant in this house ! if you want to stay, stay. Don't do anything. There are many servants here."
"But, I'm not happy if I just hitchhike." Andini.
"Let's just say, your job is to accompany oma. Sometimes I was lonely when Joseph's brothers were outside. Oma assume that's the way you pay for this house rent, how ?" Ms. Merly laughed a little.
Andini understood if this was the kindness of the old man. How is it possible to live in a house this luxurious, pay rent just by accompanying a conversation ?! Actually he's not feeling good, but if he refuses to be afraid to hurt the feelings of oma. Where would he live anyway, if he did not receive help from Joseph and his grandmother ?
"Good, Oma. Thank you very much." Andini kissed Ms. Merly's hand. In the corner of his eyes, a little puddled clear hair that will soon fall if he does not hold back his taste. Maybe this is what it feels like to have a grandmother who loves her.
Andini does have a grandmother on her father's side, but let alone give her affection, knowing that Dini is only her grandson, no ! his maternal grandparents were no longer in this world. Even if they were still alive, they would most likely not care about an illegitimate child like him. Why is his fate so bad ?
Andini rubbed the tears that had just fallen onto her cheek. Why is it still dripping, when it is so strong he endured his sadness ? Ms. Merly looked at him fixedly while gently rubbing the girl's chaotic hair. "Don't cry, now follow oma to the upper room !"
Andini nodded. The two stepped towards the stairs, Dini walking behind the Merly oma. Arriving in front of a room, "Wait here, Oma forgot not to bring the key !" Ms. Merly stepped into her room.
Andini nodded respectfully. It was Willy. The man looked at the girl who was drowning. He wondered why Mr Daniel's maid could be at his master's house ?
Ehhhh, that was Yusuf's assistant ! I need to talk to him !
Dini approached Willy who had walked two steps from where he stood. "Wait for the assistant, I want to talk ! important, it's about Joseph."
Willy stopped his steps because he heard the girl mention his superior name. He looked, "What do you want to talk about ?"
"Look, I want to ask for help. You and Joseph..." Dini paused her sentence because she saw the man glaring dislike.
"I mean, Mr. Joseph will be late to the office. It's all because he helped me out. I'm afraid he'll be fired. You will also be fired by your boss. So that I don't feel guilty anymore, I'd like to ask for help to get you to talk to your boss, find a good reason for the big boss to forgive and not fire Mr. Joseph and you, please, certainly !"
Willy shook his head and rolled his eyes lazily. This girl has been at length nyerocos, but all her words are not true. Just this time I found a stupid girl like her !
"Listen lady, it is clear that I am the assistant of master Joseph. All you have to know is, master Joseph has no superior. Be that big boss, no one will be able to fire him ! excuse me !" Willy breezed away to the room that was blocked by two rooms from the room that you were going to occupy.
The girl was shocked. He patted his own head. Stupid ! stupid !
Ms. Merly walked over to Dini and immediately unlocked the door. He went inside followed Andini. The girl was again stunned by the room she was going to occupy. So luxurious and bigger than Yasmin's room.
A very soft king-size bed danced in his eyes. If the girl was shameless, then she was currently lying down or even jumping around on it. Very far.
There's a sofa in that room. A large TV was attached in front of it. The locker room was many times wider than his room when living in Mr. Daniel's house. Ms. Merly showed a bathroom that was no less spacious and made Andini stunned. Not because it was the first time to see a shower or bathub, but the size is very broad, again exceeding Yasmin's.
Ms. Merly just smiled looking at the expression on the girl's face. "Do you like this room ?"
Andini nodded her head. His eyes were still brushing towards the corner of the room.
"Alright, oma go first. Now you just rest. Or you'll take a shower, or whatever."
Ms. Merly did not tell the housekeeper to clean up Andini's belongings, as the girl was only carrying a backpack. It seems to be able to handle itself.
"Together." Ms. Merly patted Andini's shoulder gently with a smile. Then pass away.
Andini stepped into the dressing room. He was still amazed to see the 6-door sliding wardrobe jumbo size and also luxurious. Cream colored cabinets with a length of 240 cm, width of 55 cm and height of 200 cm. The right and left doors are sliding, while the middle doors are regular openings.
He felt small and inappropriate in wearing that closet. His buty clothes will ruin the luxury of designing that thing.
"Ah, just leave it in the bag. Besides, my shirt's not ten stels." Finally he kept his backpack in the laundry basket.

"Sorry sir, I'm late to pick you up. There was a slight problem with the car I was carrying." Willy looked down as usual in front of Joseph. The man was standing some distance away, near the door of the room.
"No problem, I just got home anyway. There are some important things I need to take care of." Joseph spoke while putting the suit into his body.
What does the important affair of master Joseph mean about the girl ? what exactly happened ? does it have anything to do with the girl's whereabouts in this house ?
Willy did not dare to ask in his confusion. He doesn't want to be presumptuous. After all, the master will also definitely tell himself.
"Oh yeah, Will. Did you get any information about Andini ?"
"Yet, sir. My man is still investigating. He is now in a village that is thought to be where the girl came from. If it's done, he'll report right away."
"Tell him to act fast ! and one more thing, immediately complete the evidence of Daniel's cheating ! the man should be immediately kicked out of the Company !" Joseph stepped away.
"Okay, sir !" Willy nodded respectfully and immediately followed his boss.
Joseph's eyes wandered in all directions as he walked out of the house. The girl's figure was not seen. Maybe Andini has occupied a room, is lying down or...mandi ?
Stop ! why would I imagine anything weird about Andini ?
Joseph scrunched the base of his nose. It was still early in the morning, but his brain was already that dirty. Perhaps when shampooing, Joseph had not properly washed his head.
"Are you not feeling well, sir ?" Willy was anxious to see his master suddenly silent while twitching his nose, like a person with a headache.
"No !" Joseph stepped back, of course, followed by his assistant.
What was Joseph thinking, really ? is there another problem that bothers him ?
Willy was sure if his boss was upset or confused. He just doesn't know what the cause is.

Andini had finished taking a shower and changed clothes when Orma Merly met her in the room. The girl hurriedly approached and bowed to her grandmother Yusuf. The old man scanned the entire body of Andini from top to bottom. Sweet and young girl like Andini, willing to wear a long skirt model umbrella that is old, and a plain long shirt top that has been shabby, even part of his arm has been somewhat torn.
"Here, sorry. Do you have any more decent clothes than this ?"
Andini lowered her head then shook her head slowly. She's actually embarrassed, but what else ? only clothes like that were all he had. Ms. Merly felt sad to see the girl's unworthy appearance. In his mind asked, how hard is this young girl to not have decent clothes ?
Ms. Merly walked into the dressing room, checking the closet that was still empty. "Where are your clothes ?"
"I don't keep it here. My clothes are a little, so it doesn't matter if it's left in the bag." Andini nyengir's.
"Where's your bag ?"
Andini pointed to the laundry basket while looking down. Ms. Merly looks angry. Andini thinks it's because she doesn't keep clothes in the closet. Though it was actually an expression of impatience, wanting to see what Andini's clothes looked like.
Ms. Merly quickly took Andini's backpack and pulled out the contents. God, all his clothes are so shabby. None of them are worth wearing. This girl is really pathetic. Even my maid's clothes are better !
"Andini, just throw away all your clothes and your backpack ! come on, we're going to the store right now. But before that, you have to change clothes first. Oma's gonna get her brother Yusuf's shirt, it looks like it's gonna fit." Ms. Merly threw Andini's butute backpack into the laundry basket.
Andini was shocked by what she heard. Oma's gonna take him to the boutique ? the clothes there must be very expensive, how would he replace them ?
