"Ohhh!!" David grimaced in pain as the woman pressed the bruise on her cheek violently.
"Eat him don't be a hotshot. Fighting drunk people just can't be, not even a style snobs."
"I want to help you" said David.
"For that, thank you very much. But I don't need your help. I can handle everything myself."
David breathed slowly. This woman in front of him did look independent and seemed to be difficult to approach.
"May I know what your name is? I'm David," David asked, "Ahhh!!" he cried again as the woman pressed David's bruise with the bruising medicine.
"Angel," he answered briefly.
"Do you want to work somewhere else?" ask David.
"Of course. Right now, finding a job is not easy. So I'll stay there."
"No, thank you. I've never worked in an office and I don't think it's going to match my qualifications."
"Aren't you going to repay my kindness for helping you out at the airport?" ask David.
"Yes, tell me what you want. I would do anything if I could" Angel replied. He never wanted to owe anyone.
"Be my personal assistant."
"I told you I can't work in an office. Later all your work will fall apart because of me. The others."
"Not an assistant in the office, but at home," Angel turned to David, as if not believing him.

"Will you listen to me once?" ask Azka to Mia. For the umpteenth time Azka flew from London to Munich just to accompany Mia.
"Hmm .. say," replied Mia. She is very grateful to Azka for bringing her to New York. Initially Mia wanted to go here by herself after getting a business card from one of her lecturers.
"Acf ..."
"Don't turn me down."
"I just don't want you to regret it" Mia said, looking down.
"If you reject me, I will make sure you are the one who will regret it" Azka replied.
"You always threaten me. Don't you know that I'm not afraid of your threats" Mia said.
"I will still make you mine, even if you don't want to marry me," Azka's words successfully made Mia round her eyes. He could not believe Azka would say such a thing, scary for him.
"I'm sick, Az. You're supposed to get a much more perfect woman than me, let alone you're the successor to the Williams family."
"You're healthy, and you're going to stay healthy. Think positive because it will be good for your recovery. Once you get out of here, we'll get married right away. I'll prepare everything."
"Thank you, Az. Thank you," Mia held Azka's hand. Azka immediately kissed Mia's forehead, "Why thank me? I want you."
Mia's face immediately flushed red. He wanted to hide it under a pillow if he could. It was fortunate that both of his parents came immediately, so that he could neutralize the awkward atmosphere he felt.
"Bapi, Mommy."
"Uncle, Aunty, "Azka smiled at Ronald and Rosa, "Mia is ready to marry me. I'll get everything ready, so once he's out of the hospital, we'll have a wedding."
How can he say I am willing, but from now on he who did the coercion and the threat. - Mia's mind while throbbing annoyed. However, in the heart there is a sense of flowering flowers and butterflies flying.
"really? Then what about your college?" ask Ronald.
"My lecture will soon be over, and by then I will be bringing Mia back to Indonesia. Let him continue his studies there, isn't it better?" Azka turned her head towards Mia, as if giving a sign to confirm all her words. However, Mia could only lower her head to hide her face.
Ronald and Rosa smile at Mia's embarrassed behavior. They were also happy with the news. They leave everything to them and will help if they need help.
