The Journey of Young CEO Love

Part 19's. With you

...---Happy reading---...

As Gio had said earlier, the man actually carried Ara around all day. After eating, Gio took Ara to one of the playgrounds in the shopping center.

"Why do we want to come here?", asked Ara did not understand seeing various kinds of games in front of him.

"You've been with me all day. It just so happens that I don't have a job and neither do you so we play as much today" replied Gio.

Actually tomorrow, he's going with his father to take care of the company for a few days abroad, that's why he wants to spend time with this girl.

"Tomorrow I can't pick you up, I have to come with my dad for work" said Gio staring at Ara who also kept watching.

Hearing that, Ara quietly sighed softly, so the next few days she would not meet this man?, ah Ara so uninspired.

"From here I will take you somewhere" said Gio again making Ara more confused.

"Where?", asked Ara.

"Later you will know. Come on", get Gio to pull Ara's hand slowly.

Both spent time at the play. Like lovers, they both enjoy their time together. All the games they tried until finally the girl who had not escaped the supervision of Gio complained tired.

After being satisfied to play, it does not feel that time has changed to night. Gio brought Ara to the place he said he was. Both are standing in the lobby of a large building that Ara believes is a place to stay or it could be a place to live like an apartment.

Ara looked at Gio confusedly as well as nervously. Why did Gio bring her here, it's already night. Aiissh Ara doesn't want to think no first.

"What are we going to do here?", asked Ara nervously.

"Follow it, come on" said Gio, pulling Ara's hand.

The two walked towards the elevator to reach where Gio was referring to. After a few minutes, they arrived in front of a large black door making Ara even more wondering.

"Whose place is this?", asked Ara again.

Gio just kept quiet while pressing the numbers that managed to make the door open. The hand that Gio was still holding was about to be pulled in when the door opened, but Ara held it back before the male's steps led him in.

"W-Why are we here ? Whose place is this?", asked Ara a little scared. Okay, he who tried to think positively now can not.

"This is my apartment. Come on in, I want to change clothes first", said Gio staring at Ara who had been staring anxiously on all sides.

"Wouldn't do anything, promise", said Gio holding back laughter at Ara's terrified expression.

The girl looked up at the smiling Gio towards her.

"Awas to ngapain, I tonjok", said Ara full of warning.

"Yes-yes, let's go in. Masu until when to stand here mulu" said Gio again and with doubt, Ara followed Gio who entered his apartment.

Ara stared in awe at the interior of this apartment, not too broad but this was enough for two people to live in and one more, this apartment was very clean and neat.

"You wait here, I want to clean up first. Consider it your own home" said Gio then walked away from Ara who was still amazed by this room. Just a black, white and gray combination room but this is very beautiful according to Ara.

As his eyes were busy observing every corner of the room, his gaze fell on the figura located on the side table of the big tv in the living room. Ara walked over and observed every picture frame located there. There were some photos that made Ara's little smile expand. The photo of the father and mother, the picture of their family, the picture of Gio himself, the photo of Gea and the photo together with his sister, is very sweet.

Ara's small smile expanded, her outstretched hand gently rubbing the figura containing the man's father and mother. His memories instantly remembered his father and his mother. If he also has sweet memories with both parents, surely Ara will be happy to display it in every corner of his room, but unfortunately both parents are more loved by the creator until it has to come back sooner. Ara sighed slowly then stood up and was surprised when she turned around she had found Gio who was neat with his white hoodie. Ara sure, this guy likes to wear a hoodie.

"Would you take a shower?", asked Gio.

"Emmm, it could be a sultry thing but I don't bring a change of clothes" said Ara.

"Don't do it", reject Ara later.

Gio pulls Ara's hand into the room and turns to the closet looking for clothes that Ara could use.

"Believe it or not believe it but every closet I've got got to have Gea's shirt. I don't know that kid always makes me bother with managing unimportant things", Gio mumbled with his hands busy looking for his sister's clothes.

Gea does come here often, that's why he asked Gio to provide clothes for him, so that if he visited he did not have to bother carrying his clothes again.

"It looks like Gea's shirt is still here, which is it" said Gio, who kept looking for what he needed.

"You will take a shower later if the clothes meet I'm packed" he continued.

Ara just silently looked at Gio's back with a thin smile, this man was not as cute as people know. Just look, he now continued to ramble on insignificant matters without hearing Ara's response first.

"Well see you" said Gio lifted a white shirt and black cargo pants belonging to his sister did not forget Gio gave Ara hoodie his greatness.

"Gih you took a shower" said Gio thrusting his clothes at Ara after turning to look at the girl who had been staring at him in silence.

...---🌻🌻🌻---...

After preparing and filling the stomach earlier, Gio kept his promise to bring Ara somewhere and that place was none other than his apartment rooftop.

"What are we going to do here?", asked Ra looking at the expanse of city lights below. The clear sky supported them to linger there.

"Why not, just want to spend time alone", said Gio staring at Ara from the side, he was not interested in the scenery in front of him, he was only interested in the scenery beside him.

"Gii", call Ara turned to look at Gio who was waiting for his words.

"I want it?" asked Ara.

Gio nodded in response, Ara was actually a little nervous about what she was going to ask, afraid that Gio's answer was beyond his expectations. He was afraid that all this Gio did was out of pity.

"You... Why are you so good to me?", asked Ara to make Gio's forehead wrinkle.

"We have known you not too long, but you have been very kind to me, very understanding and very sweet to me" said Ara trying to explain.

The girl looked back at the expanse of city lights and traffic below.

"You now know what my life was like, the events of that night were pretty clear. You're the only one who knows all this, and you understand how much I even get amused by what you're doing today" Ara said.

"I just hope it's not just because you feel sorry. Because I don't need to be pitied, I can still get through it. I hope you do it all because I really think I'm a friend not a reason for pity", continued Ara ventured.

Gio still remained silent giving no response. Friends ? The word ran in his brain until he didn't know what to say. The silence was created long enough after Ara said what she wanted to say.

"Tomorrow and in the next few days I will join my father to take care of work abroad", said Gio made Ara turn to look at the man who is now staring at the scenery in front of there. What the hell, Ara had already desperately held back the embarrassment and nervousness just to say that, but this man had instead diverted it.

"When I get home, I hope you understand and convince yourself. And said the friend.", Gio hung up his words staring at Ara who was also staring at him waiting for him to finish his words.

"Changed", please",
