"Ce, sure choose as a cleaning service rather than a waiter. As a waiter sometimes get tips?" ask Ami wonder. Ami felt it was a pity that the opportunity to be a servant was not taken by Ace considering that the girl had an SMU diploma.
"A hundred percent sure Ami," Ace replied. Since the arrival of earlier. Ace hasn't removed his mask yet.
"Think for a while, being a cleaning service only gets basic salary and meal money while being a waitress, you can get half of your base salary every month from customer tips."
Ace steadily chose to be the cleaning service. Suppose this restaurant is not his mother's restaurant controlled by Mr. Andra. Ace would love to choose to be a waiter. Become a cleaning service. Ace has a specific purpose.
Ami laughed in wonder. But could not force his will to Ace. For Ami it's important. Ace is comfortable working. After all, not everyone has the mentality of facing others. And Ami thinks Ace is one of them.
Ace has made his decision. Ace was sent by Ami to face the manager. The restaurant has no complete organizational structure. The manager captures being a personnel, marketing, and operational part. While those related to finance directly deal with restaurant owners. At the moment Mr. Andra of course. The manager also offered Ace as a servant only but Ace remained in his stance.
Not much was asked by the manager. After seeing Ace's CV, the manager handed him a piece of paper containing restaurant rules. Ace read the rules for a moment.
"Is there anything to ask?" ask manager.
"Everything, quite clearly sir," Ace replied. The regulation contains hours of work entry, rest and also hours of return.
"Other than it says on the paper. All workers in this restaurant are expected to be polite and do not easily provide internal office information to anyone."
"Okay sir, understand."
"If there is something less understandable. You can ask your senior."
"OK sir."
"One more Ace, if you change your mind to be a servant. It will be glad to be accepted" the manager said. The young man named Tomo can see Ace's beauty that can be attractive to customers later.
"But I've been very confident with this choice sir," Ace replied definitely. The manager finally let Ace out of the room.
That day, Ace was immediately invited to work. There are four people who become cleaning service officers with two shifts. Shift morning and evening. Each shift, two workers on duty.
Just now, Ace came out of the manager's room. Ace saw Mr. Andra also heading for the room. Fortunately, Ace had his mask on first. Behind the mask, Ace's face was shocked. The girl tried not to be nervous when she passed her biological father. Perhaps because of the blood ties between them, Mr. Andra observed Ace briefly after Ace turned his back on him.
Ace breathed a sigh of relief after completely moving away from his papa. Willing to work at this restaurant because it knows if Mr. Andra rarely visits and receives reports from home only. Hopefully, like that forever until Ace and Rangga can take the restaurant back.
Ace cleaned the back of the restaurant because the front was already cleaned by his Senior. Sayup, Ace heard Mr. Andra doing a briefing to all his employees ranging from waiters to, the kitchen, chefs to managers. This is the reason Ace chose as a cleaning service. Ace doesn't want to get caught on his papa if he works at this restaurant. By being a cleaning service. Ace can enter any room in the restaurant.
Ace held the handle of his broom tightly. He was scared the first day he worked. He was caught and fired.
"Sir, can the others. I'm still new. I'm afraid of being careless sir," Ace replied reasoned. As the daughter of a restaurant owner. He already knows what kind of room Mr. Andra is. Before the room belonged to Mr. Andra. The room used to belong to Rani's maternal grandmother. His grandmother Ace was very fond of expensive urn jars and put in the room. Ace used to go to that room a lot.
"Morning shift is just two Ace guys. And your partner is still on duty up front. C'mon quickly. Mr. Andra doesn't like slow people."
Ace finally followed Tomo sir's steps towards Andra's room.
Ace felt a very strong heartbeat. The man who caused her, Rangga and mama Rani to suffer was sitting on his big chair.
"Please clean up!" said the man softly. Ace was fixated for a moment then Ace nodded his head. Anyway, Ace didn't want to get caught. Listening to the soft voice of his papa, Ace actually missed. I miss the old Papa. Papa is loving and became a playmate for himself and Rangga when he was a child. And the arrival of the young lady destroyed the warmth of their family just yet.
Ace if in heart. If only he had been caught as a cleaning service at this restaurant. Whether his father is sorry or has the heart to fire him right now.
"I live first. Please clean up under the table and chair."
Ace breathed a sigh of relief and again nodded his head. After being alone in the room. Ace looked at him. The room is not like before. No more expensive jars that belonged to his grandmother. And no more large frames containing photos of his family. There is only a small frame containing a new family photo of his papa.
Ace clenched his hand. That resentment towards Mr. Andra and his young wife seems to be hard to lose from Ace's heart. Just looking at the photo of the woman alone had already made her blood boil.
Ace cleaned the room according to Mr. Andra's orders.
"The safe! muttered Ace slowly. If the goal of working in this restaurant is quick to succeed why not. As long as there was a chance, Ace would take advantage of it. Ace approached the safe after closing the door first. Ace tried to hit the number on the surface of the safe with trembling hands and a racing heart. But it didn't work.
Ace tried the other numbers but still did not succeed.
"This is the last one, if it doesn't work. Let's just say it hasn't been a windfall," Ace murmured inwardly. Ace merged the birthday date of Mr. Andra, himself and Rangga. And succeed. If you do not remember the action it is an act of stealing. Ace may have cheered.
Justright. What Ace was looking for was inside the safe. Ace picked it up quickly then put it in the trash.
"It's over?" asked Mr. Andra when the door of the room opened and Ace was also about to come out with the trash can in his hand.
"Already sir," Ace replied in a disguised voice. Mr. Andra came in and was pleased to see Ace's clean and fragrant performance.
Ace stroked his chest. Luck is like siding with him. But not when Ace was about to return the dumpster to Andra's room. The man looks like he's looking for something in the safe.
