Genk Duda Restoring
27. The Good Girl
After meeting with Mr. James is done, now David is relieved. For two hours he met with Mr. James, David feels Mr. James was meticulous and detailed in taking into account what was in their cooperation. David felt helped by Imelda, she was very good at attracting clients.
"Alright Mr. David, your secretary is very smart. All right, I believe this project I leave it to you Mr. David." said Mr. James.
"Oh, thank you Mr. James. We'll work fine, so don't worry. We'll also make reports periodically, and send them to your secretary's email" David said.
"Huhah! Yes yes, I believe in you. Because I see your secretary very deft and reliable. He's smart, too, so Mr. David don't waste your secretary" said Mr. James.
"Of course Mr. James. He's a valuable asset in our company." said David made Imelda more embarrassed in praise.
David glanced at Imelda who was flattered by the compliment of that one client. It is deserved Imelda can be complimented because the performance is good. David also praised him, but about the appearance he could not change it.
When it's over, Mr. James left the meeting. Imelda escorted the client and his assistant to the elevator. David is very happy the project this time will go well. Mr. James is a client of David who is not expected to cooperate with him, usually if not the truly competent in his field, large companies will consider it even reject it.
"Congratulations Mr. David, this time we get the project with our hard work" Imelda said as she walked back into the meeting room.
"Yes Imelda, this is also thanks to your hard work. You knew it yourself Mr. James always praises you" said David.
"Hahah, it's just Mr. James is too much" said Imelda.
"But you're good at it, next month if Mr. James poured funds for the construction of the project, I'll give you a big bonus" said David.
"Is it true, Mr David? Thank you then." said Imelda happily.
"No, don't thank me now. And you deserve a bonus from the company" said David, Imelda just smiled.
"It's eleven o'clock in the afternoon, I haven't had breakfast. The hunt went to the office so there was no time for breakfast" David said.
"Do I order your food?"
"No, I'm out. All of you want to go to Nathan's office, you if you want to rest early can also" said David.
"Good Mr. David."
David tidied up his files and walked out of the meeting room and into his office. After everything was done and he took the car keys and the bag, he got out. Going to Nathan's office was his plan, but he wanted to buy snacks first at a roadside stall.
David was never shy about buying food on the side of the road even though he only bought siomay. And now he wants to buy just two packs for Nathan and himself. He knows his best friend is the same as him, likes siomay.

David's car was parked on the side of the road, he happened to buy siomay close to Budi Pekerti High School. He saw school children being seen coming out of the school gates. He saw a lot of school children who were raiding siomay merchants as well.
Many were jostling to buy siomay, the sound of their screams made David blink his eyes and shake his head.
"Bang, wrap two yes. I used to." said David.
"Yes, hurry up" said David.
David sat back in the car seat, opening the car door. He picks up his phone, intending to contact Nathan first.
Thou shalt!
David called Nathan, but he didn't pick up. He waited patiently for the siomay that was being made. He saw the high school girl he hit the motorcycle with this morning, David looked at him. And coinciding with the girl also staring at David, a few seconds the two stared at each other.
However, now the views of the two were cut off because the girl was approached by her male friend and left. David glanced at the clock on his wrist, already at one. His stomach was really hungry because he had not eaten since this morning.
"Don't you finish it yet?" ask David.
"Udah mas, it's all twenty thousand" said the siomay seller while handing over the siomay parcel.
David handed over fifty thousand, waiting for the merchant's return. After taking the change, he got into the car. Run it and drive with tenanh, because it's hungry. The only Siomay he eats on the road while driving.
At the red light he stopped, eating his siomay casually. In front of his car he saw the motorbike in the ride of two High School children, one woman huddled with a man in front of him. There was a little boy who was asking for money on the girl in high school clothes.
David watched, at first the girl was silent. But the girl reached into his pocket and handed the child ten thousand bills. The little boy said thank you over and over again, but the girl took something in her bag.
It turned out that the bottle of mineral water was handed back to the boy. David was stunned, a rare sight before his eyes. He was amazed at the girl in high school clothes who gave him ten thousand dollars. Not a lot of money for David, but for a schoolboy like that is huge. But he was willing to give it.
"Good thing about the girl, not many girls give money to beggars. He does not know most who beg even though many children are exploited by their parents. But it looks like the kid might have been begging because he needed money." - David.
The green light was on, David also drove his car slowly. The motorbike that was in the car also walked in front of his car. Not long after, the motorbike pulled over in a workshop. David was still watching, and saw the girl take off her helmet.
David was surprised to find out that this girl was the girl he had hit on his motorcycle this morning. The girl was heading to the workshop where there was a motorbike she hit. David stopped, he noticed the girl sitting on the long bench.
He drove out his car after seeing the girl watching his car stop in front of the workshop. He felt ashamed of himself, it turns out that the girl's motorcycle was actually brought to the workshop.
"So the moto was really damaged from being hit by my car?" murmured David.
He felt guilty for being angry at the girl. Moreover, he saw the girl giving money and mineral water to the beggar child without hesitation.
"If I see you again, I'll apologize to him" David said, as the car drove into Nathan's office.
