THE FORGOTTEN MOTHER'S

EAT TOGETHER

Renata followed Matteo's footsteps to the man's parking lot.

"Give me my car keys, I'll drive myself" Matteo told the driver.

"Okay sir", replied the Matteo driver as he opened the doors of the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster sports car.

Matteo immediately sat behind the wheel. Matteo's driver opened the door for Renata as well. The girl hesitates to get into the car.

"Let's go up quickly, my stomach is hungry!", Matteo orders Renata who looks hesitant.

In the end the girl got in the car and sat down next to Matteo. He doesn't even know what to do. The girl looks difficult to install the seat belt because it is different from the usual cars.

A moment later Renata's body shuddered, noticing Matteo pairing the seat belt. Renata closed his eyes not daring to look at the man who looked ordinary.

Matteo drove his car at a moderate speed. He chose an Italian restaurant that was not too far from his company.

The two sat facing. Matteo chose a table in the corner of the room, while enjoying the beautiful view of the city of Toronto in the afternoon.

"What do you want to eat?", he asked Renata as one of the servants approached their table.

"I want to just dessert, because I'm not too hungry" Renata replied.

"Bring a good dessert" Matteo told the waiter who recorded his order using an iPad. After all the orders were recorded the waiter resigned.

"Do you not have a brother?", asked Matteo as he opened the white napkin without looking at the awkward-looking Renata.

Renata shook his head. "I was alone with my mom from the beginning".

"Where is your father?", asked Matteo as he put food into his mouth after the menu he ordered came.

"Papa had long since died while I was in my mother's womb".

Renata stopped talking for a moment. "Even I don't know papa's face".

Matteo stared at Renata's face for a moment. "Did you miss your dad?"

"of course. But could do nothing but send prayers to her. I have never visited his grave, because it is far away in Australia" Renata replied slowly.

"Why haven't you visited her?"

"Because the cost there is expensive. I am not a rich man, sir. I don't have much money to buy a plane ticket, lodging and eating there. If you have better money that money in the tube for mama's treatment", replied Renata innocently while feeding the cake that looks very beautiful. The girl even very fondly cut the beautiful cake. "This cake is very beautiful, it is a pity if I destroy it" Renata said with a regretful face.

Matteo smiled at the girl's behavior. "She's like a young girl", Matteo's inner voice with a smile.

"You love your mama so much, Rena".

"of course. The only mama I have for me family is everything".

Matteo leaned his back while sipping his drink. "Why don't you spend your dessert?"

"The taste is very sweet. This cake can cause diabetes and even other diseases" Renata answered spontaneously while widening both eyes. Her face is adorable.

Matteo laughed at the look on the girl's face. "You're so funny Renata".

"HM.Why you prefer to eat out even though you have a luxurious cafe whose food is much better than this. Kan cafe tuan sells Italian food menu too?", asked Renata plain.

"Kh..."

Renata widened his eyes again. "If I were the owner, I would be happy to take care of the effort I built with great effort and need a lot of capital. I will come every day even if only a moment to go there and see the performance of the employees who work with me. I don't want to just receive reports from my men. It was very unprofessional at work. Such a boss is not very good. Not setting a good example for his subordinates" Renata said, huffing at length without thinking who he was talking to at this time. The girl even changed her style of speech worthy of talking to a friend she had known for a long time. My word changed to me.

"You insinuate me, Renata?!", ketus Matteo.

Matteo's words clearly made Renata instantly come to a realization and covered her mouth with both hands. The bright blue round eyes of the sapphire look terrified.

"Sorry sir, I didn't mean to offend you".

"Ah, you have made my eating mood disappear", ketus Matteo upset. The man stood up from his chair after leaving the money sheet on the table.

Quickly Renata stood up and ran following the footsteps of Matteo who came out of the restaurant to his car that was already in front of the door with a parking valet.

"Ahh why is my mouth so sassy, talking like that without thinking first".

Renata is humbling his stupidity.

When Matteo was about to get in the car..

"Hm T-uan, I'm just here. You can go directly to the master company again. I'm going home to pick up my clothes and my mom" Renata said.

"Get in!", ketus Matteo was annoyed.

"Ta-tu

The man stared intently at Renata, showing his dislike if denied.

"okay. Uhh". I heard breath.

Renata could not refuse anymore. He realized that he had made his boss upset. In the end, he got into the car.

"Where's your house?", asked Matteo without shifting his focus to the streets.

"Away. Exactly in line with the hospital where my mother was treated".

"I'll drive you".

"No no, sir. Thanks though. The road to my house is narrow your car can't get in there" Renata replied giving an excuse.

"You're going to pledge your home to me. So I have to know where the house that was guaranteed to me is, lest the guarantee be fictitious".

"Huh? I didn't lie to you, Mr. Matteo. The house is not fictitious. Fine, master may see for himself and master will believe in me that I am not deceiving you", said Renata, annoyed as he leaned back and stared out the window.

"elright. We will see!"

Matteo smilingly looked at Renata as he rubbed his nape.
