Money Or Honey
Episode 45: Restaurant

The sky was still very dark as Robert walked slowly, came out of his room and stopped right in front of the room that Hiyola was currently occupying. The girl was cured, so Robert no longer had any reason to keep Hiyola in her room.

It has been almost weeks when the nightmare no longer makes him wake up from a long sleep, now with a sweat that falls, Roberth woke up again because of the shadow of the past that still haunts him.

Even the habit of accidentally waking up in the middle of the night and finding Hiyola in the next bed, has become the candle. Make his feet slowly walk into the room along with the figure of the destroyer of his day.

Robert walked closer, only the light of the sleeping lamp illuminated. He breathed a rough breath when he found Hiyola's body curled up from the cold. Take the AC remote, then lower the temperature of the cold-producing object.

Afterwards, as Robert drew closer to his position, a silly idea came to mind. In a very slow motion, he lay down right next to Hiyola. He breathed a sigh of relief as his body managed to lie firmly beside Hiyola. With a smile clearly drawn on his lips, Robert promised he would only be there for a short time.

Five minutes later, Hiyola moved, her back to Robert, now turning to face him, with a sideways posture.

Having held his breath, Robert was about to run in case Hiyola opened his eyes, but after a while in wait, there was no movement, he undoed his intention. The position that was originally stretched out, he turned to sideways. Now under the dim lights, Robert could clearly see a shady face that made him barely able to work all day.

Slowly, he began to raise his hand, and presumptuously touched Hiyola's plain face. His hands moved along the line of the girl's face. Touching his forehead, eyes, nose and even his lips.

"May I start liking you?" shrieked Robert inwardly, his eyes began to close, bringing him in such a strange comfort.

***

This morning, the sky was so clear. A sense of comfort that flowed in the recesses of his pulse, making Hiyola reluctant to open her eyes. A smile fell on his face, but in the next second it began to disappear as he who was about to move, was held back by something.

With a slow movement, Hiyola began to touch something that was coiled around her waist.

Hm... Hand...

Eh? The hand?

His eyes suddenly opened wide, he spontaneously twisted his body, then immediately screamed when he found himself in Robert's arms.

"Yeah...! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!!! ROBERTH MESAC KOHLER!!!"

Bugh...!

One kick Hiyola managed to knock Roberth, whose position was at the end of the bed. The man woke up with a look of confusion, and a dazed gesture.

"Wait a minute, I can explain." said Roberth, holding the head that still feels dizzy due to the effects of waking up.

Hiyola grabbed her body, full of suspicion. "Basic pervert!!!"

The sneer of Hiyola, immediately made Robert aware of his drowsiness. He said slowly, "I didn't do anything, I just-"

"Master can get out now." Robert's sentence was cut off as Hiyola raised her hand.

Moments later, after all his consciousness had gathered, Robert realized that he had spent several hours in Hiyola's room, even sleeping next to her, hugging her. Instead of feeling embarrassed or apologizing, Robert approached and crossed paths. In the next second, he slammed himself back on the bed, making Hiyola turn around in disbelief.

"What is..."

Hiyola's sentence was held up as Robert's hand slapped the bed, hinting Hiyola to lie down next to him. Because of Hiyola's careless attitude yesterday, Robert now plans to tease her, while hiding her awkwardness.

"Come to my wife. Admit it, you also feel comfortable in my arms. No, so?"

Hiyola widened her eyes, then shuddered in horror. "Master's out of his mind, huh? Why is your Master sleeping in my room?" her grous.

Robert was astonished, he himself did not think that he would fall asleep. Undeniably being on Hiyola's side always manages to make her feel comfortable.

"No, really, yeah? Sleeping with my wife?" reply Roberth.

The shark snorted, his hands reaching for a bolster pillow close to his position, then throwing it into Robert's face. "The wife of the contract, if you forget!"

Robert, who heard this, changed his position to sit. His eyes that were originally staring full of self-confident twinkle, turned softly. He never forgot their status, so why should Hiyola always remind him?

Finally without another long argument, Robert stood up and sauntered out. Hiyola who witnessed Robert's change of attitude felt guilty.

"Did I say the wrong thing?" hiyola was confused.

***

Time goes by so fast. The sky started to darken as Hiyola walked into a fancy restaurant. His eyes stared awkwardly, the Italian restaurant was very luxurious and elegant, the interior looks visible with the best quality of materials.

"Hi, you're Hiyola, huh?" A young lady, in Waiters' uniform, spoke to him.

Hiyola awkwardly replied. "Yes." Yeah."

Hearing her, the old lady smiled with relief, she thought Rita was lying about her part-time job.

"I got your contact from Rita. You're gonna change me temporarily, no problem, right?"

Hiyola nodded, smiling kindly. "I'm the one who should be thanking you" Hiyola replied.

After the Waiters woman's departure, Hiyola immediately tidied up her appearance, wearing a restaurant uniform and also a matching colored apron. Although not fixed, Hiyola has worked many times as a waitress, so she knows what her duties are.

Finished nudging her hair, Hiyola began to carry out her duties. Nimblely he began to serve several guests, taking note of the order menu and presenting it according to the table number.

Despite working at the restaurant a lot, Hiyola was still nervous because it was the most luxurious restaurant in her work experience. So nervous he did everything very carefully.

"Hey, can you take this to table 15? My stomach hurts." Hiyola was stunned when she saw a man with glasses, handing her a tray containing two dishes of Spaghetti Albacore Tuna to her. Wanting to refuse, Hiyola so did not have the heart when she saw the condition of the man who continued to bend over in pain.

"All right." said Hiyola.

The man thanked me, then ran towards the back. It looks like he will spend a long time there.

After receiving the tray, Hiyola quickly entered the dining room. While walking, his eyes swept across the room, looking for a table of fifteen, following the instructions of the glasses man earlier. However, the rare Hiyola suddenly came to a halt, he was stunned to see who the customer at table 15 was.

His heart rumbled as he looked at the two people he knew so well, Robert and Kimberly.

The smile that had been on his back slowly dimmed, his footsteps moved backwards, even the hand holding the tray began to clench to see how the two men were talking while occasionally smiling.

Hiyola immediately frowned to find out, there might be someone he could give up the responsibility, but after seeing, apparently everyone was busy with their respective tasks. So with all his courage, forced Hiyola to step while putting on the face of the wall.The closer, Hiyola felt the atmosphere around her increasingly heated.

"Two Spaghetti Albacore Tuna, please enjoy."

Hiyola, who was trying to avoid the gaze of her two guests, jumped in shock when Robert suddenly clasped his hand. Kimberly also gaped to see someone she hated standing in front of her.

"What are you doing here?" ask Roberts.

The voice sounded furious, restraining the emotions, however, Hiyola just shook her head. His mouth suddenly shriveled.

Usually he never felt embarrassed when he accidentally got a guest someone he knew. However, in the presence of Robert and Kimberly, Hiyola felt inferior, as if slapped with the fact that she was just a speck of dust between them.

"I'm sorry, I have to work" Hiyola said, letting go of Robert's hand.

Kimberly exclaims. "Don't tell me the 200 million money Mommy Vio gave you has gone this fast." she said cynically.

Even so, Hiyola still held back her emotions, she even tried to withstand the heat that was now rippling behind her two neutrals.

"I'm sorry, if anything else is needed, please call me" he said, then turned away, and left.

Robert was about to stand up but Kimberly prevented him. "Don't tell me you're going after Rob, I'm gonna be so mad!" yelled Kimberly, whispering a little.

Yesterday, Robert promised to make amends by following Kimberly's wishes, so he wouldn't let everything he had planned go awry.

Today Kimberly plans to take Robert to a hotel, and spend a hot night with him, so she won't let anyone mess with the plan, including Robert though.

However, who would have thought, the presence of Hiyola had managed to affect Robert's mind. As far as he knew, Hiyola only worked at Meet me, he did not know that Hiyola was working as a Waiters.

Robert's eyes did not stop staring at Hiyola's movements. Pasta in front of him was not touched at all, because he was busy following the direction of motion of Hiyola who seemed not to care about his existence. Though without Robert knowing, Hiyola was trying to suppress his feelings by busying himself.

***

A few minutes later.

"It's his pay, and here's a tip for you." Kimberly hands over the money for the price of her order. One corner of his lips raised cynically, with a condescending look, stuffing a few hundred thousand bills into the pocket of Hiyola's apron.

"What are you doing, Kim?" ketus Robert, but Kimberly smiled innocently.

"I gave this waitress Tip, didn't you see?" he tried to humiliate Hiyola in front of Robert.

Hearing this, Hiyola could only swallow the entire vexation in her heart. Not his anger, he instead arranged neatly the sheets of money. After all he did a lawful job, so he had nothing to be ashamed of.

"Thank you for the Tip, please come back later." said Hiyola did not forget to smile so found a piercing gaze from Robert.

Kimberly who felt the tension immediately stood up and flanked Robert's arm, possessive. "Definitely! we will definitely come back later," he replied satisfied. With a quick step he led Robert out of the restaurant, ignoring the man's refusal, who still wanted to be there and asked various questions.

After the departure of Robert and Kimberly, Hiyola immediately carried out his duties.

While wiping the remaining water on the table, Hiyola rubbed her watery eyes, preventing the silly feeling that started to eat away at the soul, overflowing just like that. Yeah, it should be like this.

In the twisting seconds, his reddish eyes squinted his iris catching a deep red oval object on the bench. While rubbing his eyes, grabbed his wallet. Of course Hiyola knew who it belonged to.

With a quick step Hiyola ran outside with the intention of returning the object to the owner, her steps stopped when she witnessed the painful incident.

Degh's...

The long red object in his grasp fell down, along with Hiyola's steps in reverse as her neutrals stared at the guts of two people who were kissing affectionately in the car park.
