The door was heard and slowly opened.

"Lake in." Saut Uncle Alex.

A beautiful woman that Ryan saved just now, now walked in with her head lowered and her facial expression looked frightened.

"What does it take ?." Alex asked to see her figure standing next to Ryan.

Though hesitating the woman said..."No, I just wanted to apologize for the incident, boss, and that guy was not wrong, that guy forced it...."

Without a doubt, Ryan knows, not really... To be aware, that the woman called Arum is a figure in the UKS room and she works in this place.

"It's not necessary that you think about it, and I've heard the story from Ayu, she's wrong for coercing in a rude manner." Answer Alex casually.

"Thank you boss." Bending Arum's respect with a sigh of relief.

"Is it true that it doesn't matter?, isn't uncle worried if that person is looking for calculations." Said Ryan.

Replied by Alex laughing... "Alah, it's common here, those who want to make a scene just throw it out, do you think this is whose territory?, Mr. Jaelani will not be silent if he knows someone is looking for trouble."

"Good then uncle."

It is no secret that Brahman, Jaelani, Alex and his father Abram have big names in the region. But after Jaelani decides to retire and open a grocery store, her territory is passed on to Alex.

Moving from where he sat, Alex patted Ryan on the shoulder... "And also Arum, meet this Ryan, son of an old friend of mine, from tomorrow he'll be working here, so you'll have to teach him all to help."

"Eh... But." Arum was a little surprised.

"But?, do you have a problem with Ryan ?."

"Ti's... No boss, I'll do it." Soon Arum threw away the confusion on his face.

"Good... And you're Ryan, coming with Arum to see what you're up to."

"Good uncle." Ryan obeyed and walked out to follow Arum.

For the second time, this becomes an unexpected encounter with a woman named Arum. Of course, it is quite surprising, where anyone would have thought that Arum who had previously brought Ryan to the UKS, and kept it a secret not to mention names, now met in a place like a night entertainment house.

In addition, Arum's appearance amazed Ryan, yes... From the very beginning she met, it was clear that the woman was very beautiful. But looking at it with a touch of cosmetics, powder and casual clothes, gives more value to look more attractive.

"Thank you in advance...." Arum.

"That's not necessary, I'm just passing by and seeing you in trouble." Reply Ryan.

"But still.... If you weren't a boss acquaintance, you might have been kicked out and wouldn't be working here."

"There's no need to overdo it, if I can't work here, I'll find somewhere else." Ryan responded to Arum's words casually.

Arum takes Ryan to the employee's dugout, and explains everything he'll be working on later. This is not difficult, because most of what Ryan does is just lifting plates, glasses or bottles of used drinking customers.

In addition to washing, sweeping and disposing of garbage, all menial work for lifting heavy goods. Ryan could understand that easily.

"If a customer acts as a whim, don't do anything rude to hit him." Said Arum firmly.

"Why ?."

"It's not easy to deal with, but if we're being rude, they could have reported it to the boss and all of us would have gotten into trouble. Therefore just call the guards to take care of them." Reply Arum.

"All right, I understand."

"Do you really understand ?." Once again Arum asked out of concern that Ryan was doing something desperate.

"Why do you doubt me?, I'm not a fool who will act as he pleases." Ryan gave his trust through a thumbs up.

However the expression on Arum's face was clearly doubtful.... "I think because you're an acquaintance of Alex's boss, you don't care about all these rules."

"Work is looking for money, if I don't want to follow the rules, who will give me a salary."

"Yes you're right. We're just poor people trying their best to survive, so remember your position."

Despite everything he had to explain to Ryan, Arum looked up at the wall clock in the break room.

"So I explained, you can start work tomorrow at 7pm."

"I understand."

"And one more.... Let no one know if we are underage to work in entertainment." It was like a warning to both of them.

Once again given a thumbs up to Arum...."Take it easy, I'm pretty good at hiding secrets, especially I have no reason to tell other people unimportant things."

"Good, 'cause we could get in trouble if anybody finds out."

While Arum was still explaining other things, one woman in skimpy clothes, even that could hardly be called an outfit, she walked into the break room and started smiling towards Ryan.

"..... The lockers are full, so you can put things in my locker."

"Oh, oh, oh, what this is called 'love comes at work'." The woman said with a smile watching Ryan and Arum.

"Sir Ayu, don't just talk, we work here to make money, not find a mate." Arum denied.

"What's wrong?, there's nothing against us looking for a girlfriend, and doing a lot of things." Ayu continued to give insinuations.

"What kind of things ?."

"You know what I mean." Answer Ayu's brother while raising his uniquely clenched hand.

The hand code made Arum face red blushing, Ryan also knew what Ayu's brother meant, but Arum's attitude showed that he was completely innocent.

"Sir, if there's no business just go."

"Ok, ok, don't get mad and you what's his name ?."

"I'm Ryan."

Ayu's hand slowly rubbed Ryan's cheek boldly...."Yeah Ryan, what you did was really cool, maybe she could fall in love with you."

"Go !!!." Once again Arum was upset.

"It's like you can't joke around with Arum, but it makes you sweet." Ayu walked away with a meaningful smile.

Arum's face can be seen red and embarrassed because Ayu's words are clearly insinuating him, but in contrast to Ryan, he is quite reliable to keep the emotions, but he is quite reliable, so it doesn't look like a plain kid who doesn't know anything.

"Ehmmmm, so I hope we don't talk anything in school about this."

Ryan nodded in understanding, yes he also did not want any problems later, but as long as they could keep a secret, the relationship as a schoolmate would be fine.

"Alright, since my work hours are over I'm going home."

"But be careful on the road." Reply Ryan.

"Do you still want to be here ?."

"At least I want to talk to uncle first... Boss Alex."

"Ok, that doesn't matter."

Arum walks home, he remembers a little about what Ryan did to hit the man. At first glance a curved smile on his face, showing that there was something good coming to him.

Never has he been well-attended by a man, all that has happened in his life, only the abuse, humiliation and injustice of every day.

But that guy, Ryan... He, regardless of the risks or problems to come, consciously helped himself.

"Ah.... I forgot my notebook."

Arum remembered that the textbooks were left in the locker...."Let it be, tomorrow I can take it."
