Chương 4: their relationship is not perfect.

after almost 2 hours we chatted, then I gave her one of the black cards that I had promised her, Zoe moved from my lap.

"Lunchtime is over... I also have to go to the airport immediately," Zoe said while holding my hands.

"I will miss you," I said sadly.

"I'll call when I get there. And I'll always call when I'm not busy," she said then cupped my jaw. "I've only been away for two weeks, and we've kept in touch. so, it's not something to be sad about... don't make that face... it makes me unable to leave..."

"Then there's no need to go... I can give you anything you want," I said, slowly cupping her jaw and bringing our foreheads together. "You will be happy without working ..."

"Leo..." she brushed my hand away, her gaze turning sour. "You know I work not for money, but this is my pleasure, this is my hobby... can you understand?"

"Okay ... now go."

"You're angry?" he asked.

.I immediately shook my head. "I respect your decision ... besides, I have no right to ban you and you also don't care about my ban. I'm just your boyfriend, not your husband," I said.

Zoe sighed and looked at me silently. I could see the annoyance on her face, but she remained silent and I quickly walked her to the door.

After Zoe left, I went back to my room and didn't know what to do. I can't focus on work, my feelings are confused between being tired and also afraid of losing.

'I don't know why she always refuses when I want our relationship to go to a serious level, then she wants me to always forgive her as if she never thought about my feelings... I feel like giving up but I don't know how my life will be without her. but if it goes on like this I also feel tormented... I feel like I need certainty for our relationship...'

I spoke to myself while sitting back in my oversized chair, and my eyes fell on the small black framed photo that was a portrait of me and Zoe when we visited Paris.

"more than 3 years together but no progress at all..."

Tut...

I immediately took the ringing phone close range, then put it to my ear.

"Sir, Georgina hasn't returned until now...we can't just ignore her because she is our responsibility."

I just paused and then put the phone back on the holder. my memory is now focused on Georgina who seems messy but also attractive, but also annoying and she started it today.

"I have to find her," I said as I stood up and walked out of the room.

I met Renata who was doing her work in her office which was right in front of my room.

"Do you know where she went?"

"No sir ... she just said she wanted to have lunch with her boyfriend," said Renata, who stood up immediately.

I was suddenly confused, even though I really shouldn't have been because she was out with her boyfriend and she wasn't a kid anymore. but these are working times and she is an apprentice, moreover, she is entrusted to my family which means that I have to take care of her.

"There she is ..."

Renata pointed towards the elevator which is a bit far from here. I saw Georgina walking towards us with a man dressed casually with necklace accessories, even wearing a black earring on his right ear.

'turns out her boyfriend is a delinquent?' I smiled faintly, imagining that man probably had many girlfriends and one of them was Georgina.

"Poor girl," I said softly.

"Maybe her boyfriend is a musician... I think I've seen him perform at a nightclub," Renata said in a low voice.

I was silent until Georgina arrived before us with a casual smile.

"Sorry I came late," she said.

"You have to remember that you are an apprentice... if your behavior is not disciplined then it will affect the results of your internship later... you will get low grades," I said casually, occasionally glancing at her boyfriend who has natural black hair and bangs.

"Sir….I think we should talk," said Georgina's boyfriend, then held out his hand. "We'd better get acquainted first. I'm Sebastian Geraldton," he continued.

"I'm Leonardo..." I reluctantly shook hands with him. "It's better to talk in my room because we are here so it will disturb your girlfriend who is studying." I glanced at Georgina for a moment then immediately walked to my room again.

arrived in my room, I sat in my oversized chair while Sebastian sat across from me.

"Georgina has explained to me about her situation now," he said.

"So?"

"I hope you give her a little freedom so we can spend time together," he said again. "Our relationship is opposed by her family so it will be very difficult for us to be able to meet or spend time together. So I beg if it's lunchtime or on weekends, you let her go with me," he continued.

"I can't permit it because that's also not within my power," I said, then planted my elbows on the table. "Her parents entrusted her to my parents, so if you want to ask her to hang out on the weekend, please ask my parents for permission. And if you want..asking her to hang out during recess, it's fine as long as you return her at the right time..."

"I know..." Sebastian nodded his head.

I paused, suddenly feeling sorry for Georgina who didn't get permission to date Sebastian. but maybe her parents have a pretty good reason, especially since Sebastian looks like a naughty guy, is delinquent, wears piercings, and has tattoos on his neck, wrists, and probably many more tattoos hidden under his clothes.

"I wish you could help me," he said, interrupting my thoughts.

"I can't ... it's the same as I have betrayed her family's trust in my family. That could cause a polemic," I said calmly. "And if you are serious in your relationship, you should talk to her parents instead of asking her to hang out stealthily. that's no good... her parents will hate you even more..."

He even smiled slightly. "It's not as easy as you think. But it's okay if you can't help me," he said as he stood up.

I just kept silent, and let it go.

'Maybe after this, he'll tell Georgina about our chats and then Georgina will be mad at me,' I thought with a faint smile, not expecting that behind our pride in each other, our relationship is not perfect.
