The Autumn In Heart

Part 4's

Briyan came home lethargic, her face disheveled. I was just engrossed in playing my new phone, and I ended up feeling sorry for Briyan who seemed to be dizzy thinking about a lot of trouble.

"Why you?" I was surprised to see him lethargic.

"I'm fine" he said sitting next to my bed with the rice box he always carried.

"Did not the catcher come today?" he asked without looking at my face, usually he asked while looking at me sharply. This time he just nodded.

"No, today's cathring isn't coming."

"You must be starving?"

"No, I'm fine. You've also come, now I can eat." I stretched out my hand wanting the rice box in his hand. To be honest, playing with the new phonsel keeps me from feeling hungry. I'm just happy, only this time I'm treated like a queen. Moreover, by a stranger I don't know at all.

Briyan gave the rice box she was holding to me. He opened his lunch box.

"You need to be bribed?"

"What's? notwithstanding. Thanks" I was surprised by the question.

"I'm sure you can eat alone, besides you can play mobile all day. I might not be able to bribe myself."

"L-yes," I'm afraid he'll insult me, but I'm sure he's just worried about me.

We finished the rice box that afternoon. Actually I want to take him for a walk. But I'm ashamed, even though I'm sure he'll grant my wish.

"It looks like you're getting tired of staying in a rented hold. Do you want to go for a walk?"

My beloved granddaughter arrived, she asked me something I really wanted to say. I gladly nodded.

"Prepare, here's a new outfit for you." He gave me a paper bag containing clothes again.

I am glad to accept it. We're getting ready to leave. I walked behind him. After he locked the door, we walked straight ahead. Unsurprisingly I saw the elite boarding houses we occupied. Surrounded by beautiful tall hedges. We continued walking towards the car park. Briyan opened the car door in front of him.

"Come in!" he opened the door for me.

I went in still amazed. He seems to be a rich man. He bought me a new phone and gave me a lot of money.

We rode in the car and strolled the city, enjoying the ever-dusk scenery. At the end of this city there is a small beach tourist spot. We decided to go there. It was dark, there were many visitors there.

"Have you been here?" ask Briyan to me.

"Two times, same as my coworkers."

"What do you like best to do here?"

"Otherwise, it's definitely a photo together. How about you, what do you like best?"

"I like sitting in the cafe there, I think the food and drink menu there is very good. Same with the regular cafe." He showed me a simple and beautiful cafe in front.

"You going there?"

"Come on!" take Briyan quickly.

We ate there, enjoyed the night view and the lights of the boat. The night was also very bright, because now it was summer. So, it rarely rains.

"Goddess, I want to tell you something."

"What?"

"I'm taking you out tonight actually I want to say something" said Briyan, looking a bit nervous. It was like saying love to me.

"What do you want to say?"

"What?!" and I was no less surprised to hear his words.

I was still silent in front of Briyan. Never once did I think about marriage, let alone contract marriage? what was my dream last night?

"You don't have to answer now, think about it later" said Briyan glaring at me who was still sculpting.

"How long is the contract?"

"W-what?" this time my question succeeded in making Briyan gawk with his round eyes "a-year or two."

"Is the pay worth it?"

"One of the most expensive apartments in the city, one car, one big house and as much money as you want" Briyan said very convincingly.

"Why me? is there no other woman you can offer to marry?"

"much. It's just that they have everything I have. I need a woman who..."

"Poor, like me." You immediately welcomed the sentence. Briyan misbehaved to hear my words.

"You said it, not me."

"OKAY. So this is yes young master rich, even though I am poor. I still have my pride, I don't want to be bullied by the rich. So, I also have a requirement for you. But I'll write it down first on paper, and one more, stamped! how's it?"

"okay, okay. As long as your terms make sense."

"okay."

That night, we enjoyed eating and drinking in the cafe. Now I feel the luck of life approaching me. All this time I've been making money with my own efforts. But, in a few days or months, maybe my life will be better, in terms of finances. Now in my mind there is only money, money and money!

We went back to Briyan's boarding house, and suddenly I remembered my old boarding houses. What if my stuff is gone?

I can buy it again easily. But, the stuff there is the result of my hard work during work. I may have left so many memories of my work.

"Briyan, I'm actually worried about the stuff in my hostel. Can you take me there? tomorrow or the day after is okay."

"Yes, sure. But you're still sick, I'd better move your stuff to my hostel later."

"What?" I was very surprised by his words, "you mean you invited me to a kebo gathering, huh?!" this time I ride the apoplexy, "get down! lower me!" you snapped at him and pushed his shoulder hard.

"Wait, wait, wait!! you misunderstood the Goddess."

"I'm going down, stop the car now!" Briyan stopped the car because I kept pushing her shoulders, making the road no longer balanced.

"Goddess, I don't mean to gather kebo! you move your stuff to the hostel where I mean all the boarding rooms there are mine. You can go to any room you want."

I paused for a moment to digest what Briyan said, "You mean, all those boarding rooms are yours? and you're asking me to occupy one of the rooms?"

"Yes!" Briyan still glared at her round eyes.

"You heard, rich master! if you have any dirty thoughts towards me, I will torture you later!"

Briyan kept quiet and went back to running her car, until we arrived at the elite boarding house where she lived. As soon as I got out of the car, I quickly walked towards the enclosed front room. I knocked and called the occupants.

"You who?" ask the hostess to me, a tall woman.

"I want to rent a hostel here, can you show me the owner?"

He glanced at Briyan and smiled respectfully, "That's the owner" said the woman pointing at Briyan who was standing with a waist-rigged position.

I smiled at the woman and thanked her. Then she closed the door with a sweet smile. I still don't believe, actually not just don't. I was so scared that Briyan just wanted to frame me.
