THE BOSSES
Chapter 5's
"What's your name?" jeffrey asked, looking at Anna.
"Anna Moore"
"Ah yes" Jeffrey opened Anna's application file. "Experience of working restaurant waiter, minimarket cashier, distributing brochure, ice cream booth keeper.. Oye! you think this could be used to propose to a babysitter?"
Not only did Anna open her mouth, Jeffrey- "Get out".
"Lohs?! How come Anna was told to come out anyway?" ask Mark in a slightly annoyed tone.
"She's incompetent honey, she can take care of Mark" Jeffrey told his son.
"But Anna's sister is good papaa.." Mark looked at Jeffrey with teary eyes.
"Hm.. I lived in an orphanage from childhood until I graduated high school, I used to take care of small children, Sir" Anna muttered. Small, but it sounded to Jeffrey's ears.
"Is that?"
Anna nodded.
"But you're a little suspicious. Yesterday you met us, and now you work at our house" Jeffrey slammed his gaze at Anna. Scratching from under his feet to the top of his head.
"Ah, i-it's just a coincidence. I came because I was told my friend. I was also looking for a job" Anna said.
"You didn't mean to be mean to my son?"
Okay. Anna was getting upset. "Of course not. If I'm evil, I kidnapped him yesterday because of your negligence, sir".
Jeffrey gasped at Anna's reply. His sharp eyes were increasingly piercing looking at Anna.
"I really need a job to support myself, that's all" Anna said.
Ooy, do you think Jeffrey will be touched?
Mark looked at his silent father. "Papaa..." Mark whining. Jeffrey looked at Mark.
"What Mark?"
"His bandmates Anna's sister" Mark asked Jeffrey.
"We have to make sure Anna's good or bad for you, son"
"Ish papa's... Anna's sister is good"
Anna just silently watched the father-daughter interaction. Heart's pounding. What if he is not accepted for a job here?
Anna bit her deep lips nervously. His hands were clinging to each other behind his body.
"Sorry, Mister-" Joe who had just quietly opened his voice. Jeffrey turned to look at Joe who was standing to his right.
"Yes?"
"I think of all the suitors this girl sees. Obviously, he had no idea what his host was like. Her hair is not much style. Hm- Let me see your nails". Joe extended his hand to Anna. Asking to see his hand.
Anna took both her hands out from behind her body. He showed both hands with his fingers that did not have any decorations.
Similar to a nail check in elementary school, Joe touched both of Anna's hands. Slightly examined. "There's no makeup on his hands, neither are his nails long. It won't harm Young Master Mark" Joe said.
Jeffrey nodded in understanding. "Well, the makeup wasn't thick and didn't make my eyes hurt".
Mark got off his father's lap and walked towards Anna. Hugged his feet. Jeffrey stared at his son's behavior, which was rarely seen. Moreover, his son never looked like that to people who were new to him.
"Papa. come on.. Anna's sister's Mark's best friend, Kay?" whine Mark again. She has a teary expression. Trying to melt Jeffrey's heart.
Jeffrey sighed, "Alright".
"Yeayyyy" Mark shouted in excitement. Anna will be his new friend.
Anna breathed a sigh of relief. He finally got a job. Hopefully this time it will be long.
"You should stay here. Later in the afternoon ask Max to drive you home to pick up the things you need. Joe will tell you the rest" Jeffrey explained.
Anna bowed respectfully, "Thank you Sir".
"Yes Young Master" Joe replied.
Jeffrey looked at the circular watch on his left hand. The clock shows 09:23. "Alright, I have to get to the office".
Jeffrey looked at his son gently. "Mark, papa go to work first".
"Gee! bring watermelon when you go home. Don't forget kay?"
"Okay" Jeffrey got up from his seat. Approaching Mark, then kissing his son's forehead.
"Hihii. dah papaa" Mark waved his hand at Jeffrey who was about to walk out the door. Jeffrey smiled, before completely disappearing from behind the door.
"Anna" call Joe.
"Em- yeah?" Anna looked towards Joe.
"Let me show you your room first"
"Malk can come?" ask Mark to Joe.
"Of course, Young Master".
Joe walked into the other room. Passing through the dining room. There was a long hallway with doors on both sides. Anna held Mark's hand walking beside her.
"This is the maid's room. Young Master Mark's room is on the second floor, between two large brown wooden doors. The door to the room is white. You'll find it easy once you get to the end of the stairs.." Obviously Joe. "This is your room".
Joe opened the door with the key in his pocket. The three of them entered the room. The room was big enough for him. Single bed looks so comfortable. There's a closet and a dressing table. Next to the closet was a door, which seemed to be a bathroom door.
"You can use this room as comfortable as you". Joe releases a key from the many key chains on Anna.
"I'm Joe, head maid in this house. My room is right in front of your room. If you need help, you can find me, Anna"
"Thank you Joe" Anna received the key. Then put it on the dresser along with her bag.
"All right, I'm out first. Have fun" Joe's out of the room leaving Anna and Mark.
Anna looked down at Mark. The boy looked back at her too. A funny look in the eyes. I don't want Anna to smile. Anxious.
"Young Mark, want to play?" bargain Anna.
Mark's two eyebrows furrowed, like they were upset. "Don't call young master Ish, we're friends.. Call Malk with Malk?"
"But how will Mr Jeffrey get angry?"
"Peace up. There's Malk who will protect Anna's sister, hyatt!" Mark shaped his arm like Iron Man.
"Haha.. All right, let's get out" Anna took the keys to her canal and left the room with Mark.

"Have the babysitter election finished, sir?" Johnny asked his boss who was enjoying eating aiang with him in the office.
"Yes, Mark really likes that girl. But I see he doesn't seem to have any evil intentions"
"Mark likes it, how can it?" Johnny surprised. He's the only one who knew Mark since he was a baby who didn't get any attention from Mark. The boy always stayed away from her. He said Johnny's face was creepy.
"We met him yesterday. I accidentally left Mark outside when I returned to ice cream. The girl helps Mark who fell and gives the band-aid a picture of watermelon on Mark's knee" Jeffrey told Johnny.
Jeffrey ate the last mouthful of his food. "You know for yourself how much Mark likes watermelon".
"Who is that girl?" ask Johnny.
"Anna Mau-ah! Moore, yes. Anna Moore's"
Johnny nodded. He chose to continue eating.
"Find all the data about him for me. Making sure he's nice to Mark doesn't hurt, does it?"
