Chapter 3: Troublesome Little Girl!!!!
Tom returned to his study room with dark expression. Thinking of what he just did, he frawned. He just let the little girl stay in his precious space. Definitely, he is not feeling romantically to that little girl though he finds her lips uniquely sweet. He had dated few girls in the past and had couple high moments and those girls are pretty hot and had high profile background but he never thought that his kissed was different from one another unlike with the little girl. Thinking about it, he would want to try kissing her light red lips again to confirm if it really sweet. Maybe because her lips were all natural, no sticky lipstick or lip gloss. Yeah... that might be the reason.
While thinking if he should really allow the little girl to stay or not, a weak knock was heard. He raised his eyebrows and walk in the door. Seeing the freshly washed face of the little girl like with plastered kitten smile, his mood become gloomy. He already let her in, what does she need this time with that smile.
"You're wasting my time. Speak!! Quickly!!," Tom said in an irritated voice.
Sab swallowed her own saliva upon seeing the man before speaking. "Please don't ask too much. I need to borrow your clothes, even just 1 shirt or polo. Also, some toiletries" she said in horse low voice. She blushed; everything happens seems too much for her take-in in one day. But she can't be too much emotional, nothing will change if she let everything take into heart. She's just really unlucky now but surely, she can change her faith one day.
Though Sab wants to condemn the man in front from stealing her precious first kissed, she must endure it. He still the one who helped her escape and gave accept her as freeloader. What can she do? The kiss was a test not because he had lust over her, IMPOSSIBLE!!! Then she remembered a Cinderalla story where she met a Prince Charming that changes her life. "Cinderalla shit my butt," she sneered internally. I'm not in a fucking child story. She's an orphan yes but she doesn't have evil stepmother and step sisters.
Tom's head hurt upon hearing the request of the little girl. He impatiently massages his temple, what a troublemaker. Without saying anything, he passed by the girl and when into his room. After few minutes, he throws the things she requested and slammed the door.
Sab pursed her lips. She bends down to pick-up some of the clothes and toiletries fell down when it passed onto her. Though Tom unwillingly help her she's still grateful. Thinking she will be able to take a shower now and rest, she smiled happily.
*************
Inside an old building, a middle age woman begging for their life's to be spared as he look as his son's face covered with blood laying on the ground. "I'll promise to pay and promise not to run and promise not to die until I paid my all my debt. Please don't hurt my son anymore. He has work, we will pay you. The ungrateful brat runaway and we can't really find her," she's kneeling and her face are wet due to crying. "Pleeaaaseee, Pleeaaaseee, Pleeaaaseee!!!!"
The leader of the gang Han laughing with insult. Truly, even an evil mother will be moved if their son or daughter are being beaten in front of them. Enjoying the emotional and physical torture seeing from mother and son a while ago, he is now happily smiling as he signals one of his subordinates to get the mother in front of him.
Her tears still falling and looking afraid when one of the tugs hold her arms forcefully. "Lina gripped the pen as she saw the loan note agreement, the 30,000 is now 90,000 and they only have 3 months to pay for it or the interest will increase 20% again. His son's salary is only 15,000 monthly and she have no work, paying this amount within the said time-frame is almost impossible for them.
But then she still signed the note without saying anything to the leader of the gang. It doesn't really matter now; her son is more important. Angrily and blaming all of this with the ungrateful child whom she took care for years. Only if she hasn't fled, it would never been this way. If she'll see that ungrateful brat again, she'll definitely avenge her son, she'll even kill her if she'll lost his son. Thinking of this, tears seems much falling again and her body trembles more. She called her son to know if he's still fine. The moments, both the mother and son were dragged outside the gate of the old building.
***************
Sab reached out her phone on the nightstand to turn-off the alarm. It's now 4:00 am and her head is spinning. Due to constant nightmare when she gets into slumber, she was unable to sleep well. She's dreaming of running and running in her dream then an evil looking gangster with scar on his forehead suddenly grabbed her arms and laughing mockingly as she tried to break free then she'll wake-up again. She shook momentarily her head to forget her dreams.
She walked in the bathroom and checked on the clothes she washed last night, they are all still wet, far from being dry. Looking at herself in the big mirror, the black t-shirt Tom gave her was a like a dress for her small frame and height difference but still she can't get out like this or else she'll be embarrassed to death if gets caught, he might even think bad about her intention. However, the guy already told him that she'll do the housework from now on. Also, it's only 4:00 am, he would have guessed that the guy is still sleeping and might be waking-up by 6:00 am or 5:00 am worst come scenario.
She took a deep breath and decided to walk-out wearing only the black t-shirt. "As if she has many options," she thought. And she's not totally naked anyway. She was able to get some lingerie but not able to get any clothes because she doesn't want to suspect her.
She opened the fridge to see what can she cook for breakfast. Seeing he only had refresh fruits and vegetables, no noodles, no meat at all, pork, beef, fish or chicken nothing, she thought the guy is a vegetarian. Spices are neatly place in one corner of the kitchen. The rice is even a black rice only. She silently bumping her head on the kitchen counter when she can't think any recipes for breakfast.
She told the man she'll be useful but she can't even cook him breakfast. Due to hunger, she didn't taste the food she ate last night. Now she understands why she thinks the food was so blunt. She lives poorly trying to save and help her Auntie Lina at the same time so due to this, her knowledge in food is very limited. Though she worked in a canteen before, the food they serve there was simple that most normal people would like to eat which consist of pork, beef, fish and chicken. Even the veggie recipe has meat ingredients.
She holds her head and shook it few times, hopelessly. She really didn't know what to cook. Seeing all the ingredients available, some of them she had not even tasted it or what it's called. "Think... think... think... think... Sab!!! She then picked-up her phone on the counter table and watch vegetarian recipe video using her earphones to make but then it looks too complicated her. She has no all day!!! She has only an hour or less to make a decent breakfast!!!
"Ggrrr.... whatever!!! Better than nothing!!! nothing as she pulled out ingredients randomly from the fridge. When she's felt satisfied. She just grabs a pan and started cooking by instinct with a little logic on how it should be cook.
Sab happily drying her clothes when she heard a knock on the door. It's now 6:30 am, her boss might have been woken-up today and see the breakfast she cooked. At least with zero knowledge on how to cook vegetarian food she was still able to pulled it off. Feeling proud, she sneaks her head out while her body hiding behind the door as she opened the door.
"Good morning! These are for you as per Sir Tom." greeted by the middle age woman while smiling at her with female clothes on her hands. Confused that she accepted the clothes with a smile. "Thank you." Looking at the clothes she looks again the middle age woman in front.
"Those clothes are new. My daughter bought them yesterday," she's smiling happily.
"I'm sorry..." she was cut-off. "No need, my daughter was very happy because Sir Tom paid it more than the worth of these clothes. Sir said it's urgent but since there's no shopping mall opened at the moment, we asked him if she'll accept my daughter clothes since still unused. Thanks to you, Miss??" the old lady paused as she's expecting her to state her name.
"Oh, Sab.." she answered feeling grateful again.
"Oh, you can call me Auntie Myrna, I do most of the tasking here and cooking sometimes. Sir is a vegetarian so he prepares his own food most of the time if has not working or ask a chef to come and cook for him.
Feeling guilty on the lady, Sab awkwardly smiled. If she'll know that she tried to steal her work last night, for sure her will not be this warmed.
"Sir Tom is already awake and now in the kitchen. Just go down once you're ready," Myrna said as she bid goodbye.
***********
Tom actually went down to get water when she saw Sab pulling her hair while shaking her head. He was shocked at first but when she saw all the ingredients on the counter, he knows already why she's acting weird.
Seeing her like going crazy wearing his black t-shirt that now looks like a loose dress on her, surprisingly he finds her pleasing to the eye again and describe sexy actually though her curves can't be seen. He even chuckled when she roamed around the kitchen with her petite body and used a stool to check on upper cabinets. Thinking it might be awkward if she learned that he saw her like that, he went back to his room quietly.
