The Journey of Young CEO Love

Part 23's. She's mine

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

A man in a black hoodie stands near the bridge of a lake near the park he promised a girl. He had just returned today and immediately invited the girl to meet. Gio observed the atmosphere of the garden in silence. Many pairs of eyes that look at him wonder because since earlier the man just stood quietly staring at the park with a flat gaze.

The hand resting on the small bridge divider kept moving playing the black bracelet with the beautifully circular padlock pendulum in its hand. It's been almost an hour since he told Ara, but the girl hasn't come yet.

Gio heaved a sigh of relief as the person he was waiting for finally came as well. But the girl looks wryly looking for her whereabouts. Gio reached into hoodie's pocket to pick up the phone and called the girl.

"The 9-hour hand" Gio said after his call was connected.

From his position, he could see the girl staring at him with a sweet smile. Ara disconnects her phone and runs over to Gio.

"Sorry for a long time" said Ara after arriving beside Gio.

Gio turned to face Ara who had developed his smile earlier. Gio misses this girl.

"Oh yes you can be here, when to go home" asked Ara.

"Continue smoking straight here, instead of taking a break even straight out. You are not tired" he continued.

"Ah one more, you have eaten, what are you riding here. Don't tell me you brought your own vehicle. You really are not tired. If you want to see it tomorrow, or today at your home. I'm going to talk today about Gea", Ara's cerocos even when Gio hasn't answered his first question.

Gio chuckled softly and then scrambled Ara's hair in agitation.

"Cerewet", only that Gio's response made Ara snort but unabashedly smile as well.

Ara's heart was beating faster than ever. Gio's smile and handsome face really he misses, aish just one week not meeting this guy managed to make him cringe.

"Are you eating?", asked Gio.

Ara nodded in response, "it was before here, so it was a long time" he said laughing awkwardly.

"Ra.", call Gio slowly.

"Hm",

"I want to talk",

Ara swallowed her rough saliva, those three words managed to make her heart even more crazy but unmindful also made her agitated. What Gio will say is whether he will be sacked, or worse told not to go near Gio and Gea again, or Gio will say if he will move abroad. For whatever sake Ara is not ready, only a few days this close but they have to return foreign again. The look on Ara's cheerful face suddenly turned lethargic and it was well realized by Gio.

Gio flicked Ara's forehead making the girl grimace and reflexively rubbed her forehead.

"Don't think of anything weird" Gio said, warning as if he knew what the girl had in mind.

"Why don't you think weird, you just came straight that serious" said Ara a little annoyed.

"I'm not fired, don't dong. I am comfortable with my cooperation now, I now have friends" Ara said staring at Gio.

Gio snorted annoyedly, could not this girl in front of him not talk about work while with him.

"Don't think about it" Gio said again.

"Keep saying what" asked Ara.

Getting to know this man for almost a month was enough for him so it wasn't too awkward anymore.

"One month is enough, right?", asked Gio.

"What is enough ?. You really want to fire me" said Ara lethargic.

"Not that", said Gio quickly.

"That's why you speak the truth, not a piece, I don't understand" said Ara.

"I don't usually talk long" Gio said.

"I don't know if you're talking about pieces like that. Clearly it's fine" Ara said again.

Oh, my God, Gio just found out this girl was a real bitch.

"You're such a bitch. All right, listen to me carefully" said Gio.

Ara looked at Gio seriously, sharpening her ears in order to give a quick response to what Gio said later. Gio turned to grab Ara's hand, grasping her tightly.

"Before leaving yesterday, I had a chance to say when I came home the friend's word changed right?" said Gio who was only called Ara, although he did not understand.

"Today I want it with you. I don't think a month is a short time to get to know each other. Honestly, from the beginning I met you, I liked you. I've done many ways to get close to you, including Gea. And it worked, I got close to you" Gio said.

"A week more this, in addition to helping dad work I also convinced myself that I really like you or not. And the answer is yes, I like you. I hope this week you can convince yourself of your feelings. You think it's just a friend or not", continued the man.

Ara gawked seeing Gio spit out words throughout. For the first time, Ara saw Gio say something with his long sentence. Seeing that Gio was clucking in annoyance, it really turned out that this girl was really annoying. He had been a sentence all along but the girl's response was unexpected.

"Ck, Ara you heard no" Gio asked starting to get annoyed.

Ara was flirting with herself, gosh why she had suddenly become such a fool. What did Gio say ? Even he doesn't understand.

"E-e-h d-hear k-ok", he replied.

Gio looked at Ara lazily, from the way the girl replied had already explained if she did not understand at all.

"So what?" asked Gio.

"G-how is what?", asked Ara innocently.

God, Gio just wants to drown himself. Not only was the nervousness he was fighting desperately but also his prestige but look at this girl not even understood at all.

"I like you. How do you like me?", asked Gio annoyedly.

Arrrggghhh, Gio wants to just yell now.

"Not angry Ara", said Gio trying to be patient.

"That was a very loud talk", said Ara.

Gio again sighed softly trying to temper his anger. He did not want his plan to fail today.

"You don't want to be my showman" Gio said to the point. To hell with prestige, what he wants is quickly finished, accepted or not it's a back business. He can still fight.

"Huh?", suddenly Ara's brain stopped functioning.

"Jawab Ara" said Gio almost lost his temper.

Ara momentarily silently digested all of Gio's words. She was well aware of her feelings and it turned out that the man's feelings were the same as her nothing was more pleasant than that, but along with that sense of happiness, a sense of worry arose within Ara, again and again the difference in social status slapped him hard.

"But Gii.", Ara's words hang, what should she say to this man. While Gio only looked at Ara waiting for the girl to finish her words.

Gio could feel the hand he was holding back from earlier clasping his hand tighter as if giving the owner the courage to continue his speech.

"I like you. I realized that", said Ara was able to make Gio's sweet smile inflate perfectly.

"But Gii, we're different" he continued, making Gio's smile slowly fade away.

"What's different?", asked Gio.

"I love you are sincere. But we are different, in terms of life, social status, our family background is clearly much different. I know you can accept me but what about your family, if they can accept me later. You upper class live with all the facilities and life is adequate while I, even I have to work hard for my life. Mother same father I do not exist, I am an orphan, what family you will be able to accept it all" said Ara lowered her head.

Finally what he was afraid of could he reveal as well. He is too low if juxtaposed with a Gio classmate.

Gio desperately held back his anger as those words came out of Ara's mouth. Couldn't this girl not humble herself like this. Gio doesn't like it.

"We're the same Ara. Nothing different", said Gio made Ara look up at Gio who also looked at him with a shady look.

"I don't care what people say, obviously I love you. And you should know my extended family never looked at people of social status. Did you see mom yesterday ? Does he treat you badly because he knows how you are?", asked Gio to make Ara shake his head.

"I, Gea, even all the family members from the past were taught not to look at others with social status. We are the same, nothing different. Believe me" Gio said convincingly.

"But Gii...",

"What else?, afraid that people will say you took me for a treasure ?. Gini Ra, this is our life, we live it, while not harming others why do we hear what people say. There's me always beside you",

Ara looked into Gio's eyes that were highlighting him in the shade with a reassuring look if everything would be fine. Ara sighed softly reassuringly if the choice she would choose today was the best for her.

"How ? Want ya?", asked Gio softly.

Faintly Ara nodded with a faint smile making Gio's smile expand instantly.

"Truly?", asked Gio to confirm.

"Iiish yes. Don't be asked, embarrassed to know", said Ara looked down embarrassed.

"You're serious, aren't you lying?", asked Gio still in disbelief.

Ara hitting the man's arm made him grimace because Ara's punch was not a slow thing to say.

"Kok mukul", asked Gio.

"Y-yes you are, I told you not to ask mulu still, I'm ashamed to know" said Ara with annoyance but her cheeks were embarrassed.

"May not hug?", asked Gio

Not waiting for Ara's answer, Gio hugged Ara tightly as if he did not want to escape. Okay his happiness today increased and the person he was guarding also increased. No problem, Gio will do anything to keep this girl.

"Thank you" he said, peeping Ara's head.

"Gio hugged him not tight" Ara said softly as Gio's embrace was really tight, other than tightness, Gio pressed his back against the wall making it even more painful.

"Why the hell, I know. Really happy even" said Gio increasingly tightened his embrace made Ara grimace slowly.

"Hurried", he murmured still with a ringing.

Hearing the ringing coming out of Ara's mouth, Gio reflexively let go and looked at Ara anxiously.

"Why ? Is anyone sick?", asked Gio staring at Ara.

Ara waver, she couldn't possibly tell Gio what happened today. As much as possible he changed his expression to be fine again.

"No papa" he said lying.

"You can't lie to me" said Gio.

Fyi, Gio is the type of person who is hard to lie to. He knew that the person he was talking to was lying. Especially women, do not forget if his sister is a girl and he learned a lot from there.

"No papa" said Ara again.

"Try seeing" said Gio about to lift Ara's hoodie for him to escape.

"Heh. It's at the park" said Ara hitting Gio's arm.

Gio turned his gaze to the corner of the park, sure that not even a few of them noticed the two. Gio turns pulling Ara's hand slowly to leave the park, he has to check what happened with Ara actually.

"Come"
