Just For Escape
Chapter 44

Gita and Kei were sitting on a chair in a crowded city park

It seems some families roll out mats and their children play around

" What's your plan now ?" kei asked breaking the silence

" Not yet mister, but I must quickly find a new job" replied Gita while staring at Kei at a glance

Hearing Gita's words immediately Kei got an idea that he thought was brilliant

" What if you work at my house ?" hag Kei while looking at Gita expectantly

Gita looked at Kei with a question mark

He did not understand what kind of job Kei was offering

" I'm sorry sir, I don't understand ?" gita answered with her innocent face

" Can you cook ?" ask Kei

" It can be master but just a regular home-cooked meal "

" Can you do housework ?" ask Kei again

" May you be my last job, my job is to clean the house" replied Gita

" Good, that means from now on you work at my house, from cleaning my apartment to washing my clothes and most importantly make me breakfast and dinner before you go home" Kei said

" You work from Monday to Friday and if I need you on Saturday and Sunday you have to be ready, don't be afraid for every job in the weekend I count overtime and your salary I equate with your salary working time in my company, interesting is not it ? so from tomorrow I wait in my apartment at six in the morning don't be late !" ceroscos Kei without giving Gita a chance to speak

" Let's have lunch now then I'll drive you home let you get some rest !" say Kei again while pulling Gita's hand

While Gita was like a cow that fit her nose, she followed Kei without saying a word

His mind was still trying to digest all of Kei's words that he had just heard

Kei invited him to lunch at a restaurant, they also ate on the sidelines with small talk about their daily lives

Along the way to kost an Gita Kei tells about his habits as well as some foods that he likes Kei hope Gita learns to make his favorite food

Gita just silently listened to all the words of Kei and occasionally he asked if there were things that he did not understand

In the end Gita did not reject Kei's offer because he did have no choice but to accept Kei's offer which he thought was not so difficult

Just cooking and cleaning the apartment looks like he can do it Gita thought

" Don't forget tomorrow at six in the morning" Kei reminded Gita when Gita was standing in front of the alley towards his boarding house

" Good sir and thank you for breakfast and lunch" replied Gita, bowing her body

" Okay same, I went home first ", Kei answered and then ran his car while honking his horn once

After Kei's car disappeared from his sight, Gita walked towards his boarding house

Kost an Gita is a semi-permanent tenement house, most of the Gita neighbors work as traveling traders and day laborers in the project area

Gita actually felt uncomfortable with the boundary wall with the next floor only using bamboo rooms that have been hollow here and there

But considering the very cheap rent price makes Gita can only survive by patching the room section that is hollow with dark color cardboard paper so that the next door neighbors can not peek at it

Gita sprawls her body on a thin sheet of mattress she has while turning on the mini fan next to her, Gita rethinks Kei's words about her new job

I was just in charge of cleaning the apartment, washing and ironing her clothes and cooking breakfast and dinner, and every weekend should be ready to come if needed, heemm.....hopefully, Mr. Kei will be satisfied with my work

Gita murmured while trying to close her eyes and not long after that a soft snore came from her mouth

Meanwhile Pratiwi looks angry when he can not contact Gita especially when he told his men to go to the Gita boarding house and say if Gita has moved since a month ago

" Fuck ! you brat !" yelled Pratiwi while slamming things around him

Niken who was in the kitchen immediately ran away when he heard Pratiwi's screams

" Mommy ! what's wrong mom ?!" call Niken while banging on Pratiwi's room

Pratiwi immediately opened the door of his room and in front of him Niken stood with an anxious face

" Why are you screaming ?" ask Niken

Pratiwi did not answer the question from Niken, he instead looked at Niken from top to bottom with a face that suddenly changed

There was a grinning smile from Pratiwi's lips then his hands touched Niken's shoulder and twisted it so that Niken's body turned back

" Niken..Your age will soon be eighteen right ?" pratiwi asked while facing Niken's body towards him

" I.iya Bu but still another six months "answer Niken did not understand the direction of his stepmother's question

" No problem.mom just want to remind if you have to start working to help your brothers so that your father can continue to do the treatment" said Pratiwi with both hands on Niken's shoulder

" Yes Bu Niken understands, Niken will work hard to let the father can be healthy again "answer Niken a little afraid to see the face of Pratiwi who is not as usual

" Good!!.you don't be like your sister Gita who just ran away and doesn't care about us especially with your father's health !"

" Both Miss Niken won't kayak ka Gita, Niken dear father, Niken want dad healthy again like first !" answer Niken

" I believe you're a good boy, same mother !" said Pratiwi while tightening the grip of both hands on Niken's shoulder

" Yes back there take care of your father!" said Pratiwi while releasing his grip violently

Niken immediately ran towards the kitchen, 8a resumed his work that had been delayed earlier

Geez.why does mom look awful huh

Mumbled Niken while carrying a basin of warm water to wipe his father's body

While Pratiwi appears to fold both hands on the chest while smiling cynically looking at Niken who turned her back

No matter the Gita is gone, there is still the Mega and soon the Niken is ready to sell, I have to start looking for a new papi for the Niken

Gita pulls up her jacket while walking towards the apartment unit where Kei lives

Kei gives him an access card and also a passcode number for his apartment door to make it easier for Gita to enter his apartment without having to build a Kei kan which is certainly still asleep

Gita enters Kei's apartment slowly afraid to wake the owner up

Gita circulates her gaze around the room and Gita opens her jacket and keeps it on the sofa with her sling bag

Gita went straight to the kitchen and opened the fridge to see what kind of groceries she could eat for breakfast this morning

Two chicken eggs lay on the fridge door, some leftovers, withered vegetables, a soda drink and half a small can of corned beef and milk

Gita took out the chicken eggs and then she saw some fresh bread on the table

Gita smiled at the end she could make a simple breakfast of eggs and bread

Gita began to break the egg in a bowl and then mix it with milk, a little sugar and melted butter

After becoming a liquid dough, Gita put the bread and roasted it on teflon

Don't forget Gita gave a toping of peanut chocolate jam on top of her

Gita then cooks rice, he will make fried rice for his employer's lunch with a mixture of eggs and corned beef

Kei who was sleeping suddenly woke up when he smelled a pleasant aroma, he was silent for a moment until he finally smiled and then rushed up from his sleep to the bathroom

Kei walked out of his room in work clothes and from the living room Kei could see the cool Gita in the kitchen

Kei noticed Gita who was in focus with his cooking show seen on the dinner table a plate of toast and a cup of tea with smoke still billowing

" Good morning Gita .I don't think you're coming "greeting Kei while sitting at the dinner table

Hearing Kei's voice behind him Gita immediately turned his body to face Kei

" Good morning sir.Sorry, this is the only breakfast I can make" said Gita, taking toast on a small plate and knife and fork so Kei could eat his breakfast.

" Thank you, this is enough !" kei replied while cutting the bread in front of him

" I'm sorry my master made fried rice for lunch if you like " said Gita again

" I want to !" answer Kei quickly

Hearing the answer from his employer Gita immediately put the fried rice into a place and then store it at the dinner table so that later after Kei finished eating he could take it

Kei spent four slices of toast which he thought was very tasty soft and savory and there was also a sweet taste unlike his hard bread

After finishing with his breakfast Kei went to the living room to pick up the suit that was draped on the back of the sofa

" Then I leave first yes, I will go home quickly so we can go to the grocery store" said Kei

" And do not open the door other than me.you must be careful even though here is guaranteed security !" say Kai again

" Good sir " replied Gita briefly

Kei holds his bag and his food supply runs towards the door when suddenly Gita calls out to him

" A minute, sir !" said Gita while approaching Kei

" What's up ?" ask Kei

" I'm sorry the tie is tilted" Gita said as she pointed towards the tie Kei was wearing

" Oh.please Ta. My hands are full of "kei pinta on Gita

Gita seemed hesitant but she saw both of her master's hands full of bags and places of meaning

Then a little nervously Gita stood in front of Kei who slightly bowed so that the younger Gita could fix his tie

Gita tidied Kei tie and also the suit that Kei wore to make Kei stunned for a moment, there was a feeling of pleasure and a sense that he could not express that was certain that morning Kei felt his life would start to change

While Gita was embarrassed by his attitude just now who unhesitatingly tidied up Kei's tie and suit to make his cheeks blush

Kei rushes out of his apartment, unwilling to make Gita ashamed of what he just did

Inside the elevator Kei leaned back his body while smiling considering the small attention Gita was doing

While Gita leaned her body on the apartment door while holding her chest that suddenly beat quite fast

Aaiisshhh.what I have done just now, I am very ashamed.please your heart must be strong yes.kaya you will often marathon.

Gita murmured in the heart with cheeks that were still blushing red
