"So Gea's private tutor" Gio said.
Ara was shocked to hear Gio's words. How can he teach Gea if he also works here and in the afternoon he has classes until the afternoon especially he is pursuing his graduation now that makes it difficult to manage his time.
"Stop working here and become a Gea private tutor" Gio said as if understanding Ara's mind.
"Every day after your business is done you can start teaching Gea" Gio said.
"Why should I?", asked Ara still a little surprised.
"My brother is hard to get close to someone and so far I've seen you guys close and I don't think you're the wrong person to teach him to see your grades on campus so satisfying" Gio said at length.
"But...",
"Your salary will be greater than your salary here" said Gio.
No, it's not a matter of salary, but it's about why he should. This family of men can still hire people who are much smarter than him. He is really confused.
"You don't have to come every day, come when your schedule is empty, I won't burden you. Besides your majors and he equates you can study together" explained Gio again.
Actually this is just a way to get closer to the woman in front of him, he did not really find his sister a tutoring teacher, but if this is one way, why not.
Actually this is not difficult for him, just teaching and just like Gio said, just like he said, he could study with Gea even more so his schedule was not determined just to fit his schedule empty or Gea's schedule empty, but what is this is not excessive. The salary here is quite large and said Gio his salary to teach Gea will be greater than this. Why is Ara so worried.
"I'll wait for your answer until tomorrow. It's late, let's go home" said Gio who had glanced at his black watch.
Ara nodded and followed after Gio who had gone to the door. After the two reached the first floor, they or rather Ara had become the center of attention of other employees. There were many views that they gave, confused views and wondering what happened and cynical views that indeed from the beginning did not like with Ara. Moreover, seeing Ara that close to the cafe owner made their envy even greater.
"Everybody can go home. It's too late, sorry" Gio said.
The employees nodded in understanding and immediately dispersed to pick up their belongings in order to get home soon. Same with Ara. But before leaving, Gio's words made his steps stop.
"Go home with me" said Gio casually.
Ara widened her eyes to hear Gio's words which led to more commands.
"5 minutes I waited in the parking lot", after saying that, Gio immediately left the cafe towards where his car was parked.
Ara clucked in annoyance then immediately ran towards the room where they rested and stored their belongings.
How can he go home with Gio, while there are still so many employees here, what they say later. Ara put her things in her bag and changed her clothes.
"Ra, I go home first. I was picked up today" Nina said. The girl was in a hurry to put her things in the bag because her lover had been waiting.
Ara nodded with a sweet smile indicating that she was okay to go home alone.
"Tomorrow we go home together again. Daaah Ara" said Nina immediately ran towards the parking lot.
After finishing packing her things, Ara sat down on the sofa beside the window, many of which were a burden on the girl's mind now. He needs money but the payday is still a long time. The money is only enough for the next two days, then after that what he and his grandmother will eat.
Ara sighed softly, she had already decided to stop working and take Gio's offer. Maybe it's the right choice. The salary that Gio was going to give could be used for his daily needs with his grandmother and the rest he used to cover his depleted savings.
Recalling about Gio, Ara turned her back to look at the window and sure enough, Gio was still parked waiting for her.
Ara widened her eyes looking at Gio who was still a henchman leaning on his car while playing a mobile phone. Ara momentarily fell silent staring at Gio from afar. Really, men are so charming. The story outside that he heard was true, the man's good looks were no longer questioned but the question Ara, people say if this man is cold and indifferent but why when he was with him Ara did not see that at all.
"Why should I get involved with people like them" murmured Ara.
"We're so different, our lives are so different but now that I'm not just getting involved with Gea I'm going to get involved with her too" Ara said as she continued to stare at the black hoodie man.
"I used to admire him, not because he was rich or the owner of a big company in this country but I admired him for his cleverness and responsibility. At this age he is very productive and always thinking about his family", continued Ara.
Ara's phone rang making the girl's gaze switch and reach into her jacket pocket to see who called her.
"Who is this?", murmured Ara saw the caller only listed a row of numbers without names.
Ara decided to pick him up, who knows it matters, he thought.
"Hello", say hello Ara.
"Where are you, going home first?", asked from across the street.
With a quick movement, Ara looked back at Gio and it was true that the man was contacting someone who was none other than himself.
"Still in the cafe anyway, I came out for a while" said Ara immediately turned off the phone call and rushed out.
His gaze swept over every corner of the cafe and luck sided with him. There are no cafe employees, there is only a security guard outside who is in charge of locking the cafe after all employees go home. He can go home with Gio without the other employees knowing. It was nothing if they knew, Ara could be bothered with the questions they had assumed themselves. He chose to go home with Gio as well not without reason, it was already very late, he could not have gone home alone in the hour that had already shown the 12th step, he said, no more public transportation like this anymore, Gio who had been waiting for him, made the girl feel bad if she had to refuse.
"Sorry for a long time" said Ara after arriving in front of Gio.
Gio nodded and said, "father, let's go home it's almost midnight",.
After that both got into the car and left the cafe towards Ara's house.
On the way, both are silent. No one wants to start a conversation. Gio who was focused on the streets and Ara who was busy with her own thoughts.
"Sir.", call Ara in the end.
"Gio", Gio's correction. He did not like if the girl sitting next to him called him father. Is he that old, this is also not working hours right and they're just the two of them.
"I told you not to call me father. Am I that old?", asked Gio to make Ara shake her head quickly.
"It's not like that", Ara replied awkwardly.
"Then ??.... This is the last time you call me father, can't you just call me by name" Gio said. Why is he so talkative and chatty now like this.
"All right, Gio", annoyed Ara.
He cursed the man who said that the man beside him was cold and indifferent. What's cold, he's so chatty. Calling things alone he became complicated like this.
"Well that's dong" said Gio with a faint smile.
Ara who saw the male smile was instantly dazzled. Several times, this was the first time she saw Gio smile, even though it was just a thin smile, but it turned out that the smile of the man was very sweet, just like his sister.
Ara cleared her throat and turned her eyes forward staring at the city streets that were still a little crowded despite this hour.
"Gii.", calling Ara made Gio look at a glance while clearing his throat, then look back at the streets.
"I've made up my mind and I agree with your offer" Ara said staring at Gio.
Gio who heard that immediately turned his head in enthusiasm.
"Right?", asked Gio to confirm.
Ara nodded for sure and said, "Yes I agree",
"Good job girl" said Gio while smiling sweetly at Ara, with a hand that reflexively patted the top of the girl's head slowly.
