What Happened 2
10
Vie let his guests rest in peace for two days. He also never met the man he had unilaterally invited into his home at all. The man is free to go anywhere in this house, the park, the lake, all the places he can go. Even if the man wanted to go to the treasure storage house, maybe Vie wouldn't mind. He doesn't care as long as the writer's man stays at his house until he reveals what he really means by telling him to follow him.
Another case with the poor young man, he even thought that this was a wicked trick that the antagonist used before hanging his opponent to death. Busy thinking this and that, finally the invitation to eat from the evil lady arrived. The man had accepted the invitation after gathering much courage, he could only hope that it was not the last banquet before he was put to death. He still had to support his sister and mother, so he had to live for quite a long time.
After passing through a series of preparations, the man had been first delivered to the dining room on the top floor. The scenery there made the man was washed away and lulled, to the point that he did not know that the evil lady he feared was already in front of him, sitting comfortably in his magnificent chair.
Vie invites the man to start eating before they talk about business. The man nodded obediently, eating quite voraciously even though his mind was quite a lot. He didn't know what kind of business they were going to talk about. But he hoped that he could refuse if he felt unable to interfere in this matter. Hopefully this lady in front of him will understand that that is indeed what happened.

"So, can we start talking seriously?" asked Vie who was sitting leaning back leisurely.
The man in front of him gave a small nod after looking around, many maids passed by to clear the dining table. So he thought there would be no problem listening at this moment. Well, even if he feels his digestion will definitely be disturbed. He had just finished eating various foods, so he felt even more uneasy from being too tense waiting for what the lady would say to him.
"All right, just get on with it, okay?!" vie said once again making sure. The man still nodded as if agreeing, whereas he had no other choice but to agree with what the big lady in front of him said.
Vie hints that his servants leave immediately, leaving the two of them, immediately carrying out the orders of the lady. Of course the author saw it. Now that he could panic, there was no one but the two of them. It feels really stifling and scary. "Work for me!" exchange Vie with his leisure. "I'll give you more salary than your previous job, you can also stay in the workers' residence behind, the, of course there will be holidays and annual bonus money that is provided for all workers here. So, what's your answer?" continued Vie while thrusting a piece of paper towards the man.
"I'm just a regular writer, miss. I've never been a waitress to please a lady like you" said the man in a cold sweat, thinking he was offered a non-existent job.
"That's enough, you're hired because you're a writer" Vie said indifferently.
"I can't stay here, I'm worried about my little sister and my old mother, miss," said the man, breathing a little. At least he is not told to be a clown who must continue to entertain his employer or work as a satisfier who must always obey what the employer wants.
"Pick between the two, you go back and forth or they you live with here," Vie replied without thinking. His father would have no objection if he had invited one family to stay. After all they could take care of things alone, he only needed a writer who was willing to write a story about him. Surely the crime about him is more widely known if spread through writing.
"Who wants to hire them both?" Vie asked in a lazy tone. "Only you work and they can stay here as long as you work in this house" continued the girl was very familiar with the way the young man in front of her thought. "Sign if you agree!" added Vie glanced at the paper he had just thrust.
"May I ask for a moment to think, miss?" asked the man, still hesitating.
Vie nodded, his hand forward with his fingers wide open. "I'll tell you in five days, miss!" said the man who was happy, he thought that Vie would allow him to think for five days.
"Too long!" the girl's snort pulled back her outstretched hand forward.
"Well, five hours?" ask the author to scratch his cheek which is not itchy at all.
"Still a long time!" rebutting Vie glared impatiently.
"You want me to think about it in just five minutes?" the man guessed once more.
Vie smiled thinly. "Four minutes and thirty seconds!" the meeting of the girl was heartless. "And time goes on" he continued, not caring if his interlocutor was upset.
"No need! I'll sign it now!" said the author snatched the paper and signed it with an annoyed expression.
"Good, welcome!" said Vie looks happy even though imperceptible. "Write as much work as possible" he continued to leave the room. "Ah, if you want to pick up your family. Just use the car, let the driver accompany you," added Vie arbitrarily before he actually left.
"Damn, I hate this!" the man kicked empty air. "But this is also a good opportunity," the man sighed with a helpless face. "My mother and sister won't feel the cold again at night" she said sadly. He had tried his best, but the longer the house he occupied the more expensive the rent. The ever-increasing rental price is not worth the repairs that are too rarely done by building owners. Maybe by moving here, he can save a little excess money and one day buy his own house even though it is small. With that hope, the author smiled happily. I hope that the decision he made was not the path to hell.
