Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 132. Arkan and Drama Life bag. 3
Arkan gave a sweet smile from his handsome face in response to the warm embrace he received.
Afterwards, Joel asks them to take a bath and change their clothes. Michaela immediately pulled the hand of Stelani and Fabil to show the clothes they had just bought.
Now, there are only two adults left. They sat in the bar stool and chatted for a while.
“So manager, did you talk to Kaito again?”
“No. The children pulled him inside to go to Kino's room. Looks like a big clock is in effect, so they all wait until the next big clock comes”
“Jam besuk yes..”
“Aa. The last big clock was at 17:00-18:00 pm. But since Kino hasn't had any signs of waking up yet so I asked them to go home and we were only in her room for ten or fifteen minutes”
“It looks like the manager has been looking for a lot of things there”
“They all keep whining to come again tomorrow so I have to ask more fully about the clock. Morning hours starting from 10.00-11.00 am. The second besuk clock starts from 14.00-15.30 pm and the last besuk hour starts from 17.00-18.00 pm”
“Hmm, the second clock seems to be a little longer than half an hour. It would probably be better if swiped in during the day” Arkan argued a little
“The idea is so, but those kids won't miss every hour. Trust me.” Joel smiled thinly
“Manager right. They're too worried about all that”
Joel started thinking for a while.
“Arkan, do you think I should let them return to their narrow and dark house?”
“Home? Old buildings they used to live in?”
“I...I don't want them back to that sad place”
“But, where will they sleep then?” Arkan was starting to look confused
“Bar may be narrow and not good, but from water to clothes is here. In addition, there is an employee room that can be used to sleep. The toilet and bathroom are also complete. I thought, I'll let them stay here for a while until I can think of the next thing”
Arkan was quite surprised by his manager's suggestion. He looked at his manager with wide eyes and asked.
“I don't..I don't think it's bad, manager. But...letting kids be in the bar with conditions like this..isn't that too dangerous?”
“....” Joel is silent
“I know no one customer has come to this place since morning. But, that does not mean this place escapes the target of criminality. Moreover..”
Arkan started whispering to Joel “let alone there's your safe in this place”
“I know. Therefore I was thinking of accompanying them to sleep here”
“So much...hah?!” Arkan was shocked to the point of standing up from his chair
“Why be surprised so?” Joel looks confused
“You?! Want to stay here and spend the night you used to sleep with your girlfriends?! A striped nose guy like you?! You're serious not someone else, are you? You're my calculating and difficult manager giving me leave, right?” Arkan really did not believe in what he heard
Here, Joel's face turns red like a matured crab.
“You really are an ungodly employee huh. Looks like I'll have to eliminate the leave for you this year” Joel threatened
“True. After that you and I will go crazy together, manager. Because I'll write you a threatening letter and a tin letter. Your wife will also haunt me with the same letter” response flat Arkan out
“……”
“……”
Both of them were silent for a moment and sat back quietly while sighing. Back to the serious topic.
“Stop this all. I continue my conversation. I've decided to stay overnight and accompany them all” said Joel
“Maggy-sama will return tomorrow. Shouldn't the manager go back home?”
“Cannot. I have to look after them. If I go home, who will take care of them all?”
Arkan was silent for a moment and thought.
“Nee, if I do..is it going to be in my bonus this month?”
“Hah?”
“You didn't forget that Mr Nox is out, did you, manager? This morning I even had to take a morning shift that wasn't my working hours today. It was all for the sake of cleaning up the party Justin did last night. I also like taking overtime because it's past my time to go home”
Arkan began to argue and count everything related to his income. Now, business and money are the subject of discussion.
“You should have paid me for all this, manager” Arkan started to get serious and insisted
“But you're also the one who let this place crumble, the ungodly employee! It all happened while you were on your guard, you fool!”
“That's not my wish! Blame the gorilla that has been on display on the black market!” arkan's tone started to rise a little
“He still owes me 5,000 Francs and I haven't gotten his pay at all”
“On that...eh? Wait a minute!”
Arkan picked up the bag he had placed on the bar table. Inside, there was still a gun and a bullet Kaito had given him. He took it and brought it to Joel.
“Manager, Kaito gave this to me. At first I wanted to keep it just in case. I'm afraid that the thread of my destiny with that crazy black market manager still exists so his intention is to be used for self-defense. About if you sell this, can you sell it?”
“Pistol?”
“True. Good to add to the intake. He said he got it when he was attacked by Justin's men. Isn't that the same as Justin's? That way you can assume the debt is paid off”
Arkan hasn't called Justin so politely since he died. Now, the most important thing is to save the possibility of employee pay cuts due to this problem.
“I'm not sure I can sell this weapon but if it can be used for self defense.Why don't you keep it?”
“Eh?”
“Kaito gave this to you, right? You should have used it well”
“I won't cut your salary”
“Really?” Arkan began to see a light of enlightenment
“Iya, I won't cut. But your bonus this month I'll cut”
“.....” and he saw the light of enlightenment was dim again
Arkan could not say anything until he fell silent in disappointment. In his heart, he cursed while praying.
‘Yes God, I hope this stingy manager is sued by all his girlfriends!’
“For now, I think eliminating your bonus this month will not make you trouble” continued Joel
“Manager..”.
“Hmm? What?”
“I hope Theo and the others call you perverted uncle again for a week”
“Oi!!” Joel immediately shouted
Five of the nine children who had taken a bath went out to meet the two adults, including Stelani and Michaela. Initially, they wanted to show the new clothes they bought. But, the scene they saw was not as imagined.
“That's because you're stingy, manager! Why should my bonus this month be missing?!”
“That's to account for all this mess! This happens while you work, right?”
“Just your bonus this month is gone!”
“I'm going on strike if the bonus is gone!”
“You want to get fired huh?!”
“You sure you can find new employees who want to keep this household secret and dilapidated place?!”
All arguments that have strayed too far from the topic, are still the subject of discussion. Seeing that, Michaela who was using a small bag given Joel approached her.
“Joel-ojichan, if you need money.In here there are still many. You can wear it” Michaela said with a smile on Joel
Arkan and Joel stopped arguing for a moment and looked at all the children standing there.
“If about money, there are still many. Joel-ojichan can wear it. We have bought nice clothes and cake for Kino-niichan also”
“Oh, my sweet dear Michaela. That money is for you. Don't worry, I still have a lot of money in my wallet. Ahahaha” Joel replied
“But, Arkan-niichan fought with you for money”
“It wasn't your fault. That's because–”
“That's because Joel-ojichan is a stingy person!” connect Arkan with a soft tone
“Durhaka employees!”
“Bos durhaka!”
And the two of them acted like children. All the children were just looking at each other in confusion. Until Stelani finally spoke to them.
“Joel-ojisan, I don't think you need to be stingy on Arkan-niisan like that. After all, he saved my life and Fabil's. Can't you give him a little reward for his effort and hard work?”
“A–kids, it's not like..” Joel with a frantic face trying to explain it
He kept quiet for a while and started to take a deep breath. Unwilling to argue any more than this, Joel finally gives a little of his generosity to Arkan.
“Alright, alright. You're winning. You get your bonus back”
“Yeah!!” Arkan instantly showed an energetic cheerful face
“Dan about earlier offer–”
“I received during the entry in my bonus too!” Arkan again cut off Joel's speech
Joel could only say yes to her. To be honest he was very forced, but that didn't mean he was stingy. He just felt a little upset because of the argument with his employees.
Theo and the remaining children came. After they get together, Joel tells them all that they will be staying in this bar for a while. Of course Arkan will accompany them tonight.
Although the children initially seem to refuse and choose to return home to their previous residence, Arkan manages to persuade them all to accept him.
Joel had a few things to say to Arkan. It didn't take long until Joel decided to go home.
“Peach yourself all yes. Tomorrow, we will go to your Kino-niichan place again. Hopefully tomorrow he will wake up” Joel said as he said goodbye before returning home
The children smiled and waved their hands.
“Be careful on the road, Joel-ojichan”
“Be careful ya~”
After driving Joel, they went back in. Arkan checked the employee room like his manager's message.
“Dirty clothes in a big plastic and basket tomorrow morning should be taken to the washer subscription yes. Really a touching message. He even gave me orders to do it tomorrow morning. Basic manager sucks” umpatnya slowly He realized that he also had to think about changing his own clothes.
“Instant caste and instant slurry are up. I think I should take some at home along with a bottle drink for them”
Arkan approached the children sitting in the bar stool while looking happy.
“Kids, I'll be home for a while to pick up some clean clothes and some instant food at home. You guys stay here and don't go anywhere ya”
“What's your luggage a lot, Arkan-nii? I'll help you if you don't mind” Theo standing up and offering himself to help
“Not per..hmm, it might not matter if you help. Alright. Please help me yes, Theo”
Theo finally leaves with Arkan to his house.
