Not Just Love
Chapters 19. For the wife

The weekend, which Maya is waiting for. Since morning, there have been many visitors. Even more, more than usual. There were several people who came, wearing the same uniform.

"Sir, coffee's five."

Five men, sitting face to face on a wooden bench. They fanned their faces, with paper.

Five cups of hot coffee landed, accompanied by a plate of hot fried bananas.

"Well, thank you very much. What selling sister?"

"There is chicken rice, grilled fish and fruit juice. There's coffee, too." Maya mentions one by one the menu in her shop.

"Later we'll work here. Brother, ready to eat well, later we come take."

"How, Sir?"

"Sure number, later. If my boss had come. He wants to work this month. So, maybe the exchange should be a lot."

"Emang, what are you doing, sir?"

"Villa, brother. This rich man, he says he wants to make a villa for his wife."

Maya did not respond. It caters to other visitors, who have just arrived.

Maya is busy pacing back and forth, serving visitors. He also had to prepare orders, not to mention burning fish. He delivered faster juice orders, while waiting for other orders to be ready.

Spiced fish, landed on the grill. Maya runs again, to make sambal and prepare lalapan and white rice. He was also busy frying the chicken.

Maya delivers orders of fried chicken rice first. When he returned, there was already Ansel waiting with an anxious face.

"Come in, May." Without warning, Ansel pulls Maya's hand into the room. "Don't come out until I ask!"

"Why? Outside of a lot of visitors, El."

"Zamar is here."

Deg. Spontaneous Maya leaned against the wall of the room by holding her chest.

"I will serve them. You wait here!"

Maya just nodded her head. Wh why? Why is he here? I don't want to see him or see him again. Maya closes the window and lowers the curtains. He huddled up on the bed, with a turbulent heart.

"Fire it." Ansel put the order menu on the family group.

"Sir, coffee."

Deg. Two very familiar men, sitting on a wooden bench. One of them, a man who often appears on TV screens.

"Good, sir."

Ansel rushed over, making two cups of coffee according to the dose. He also serves a plate of fried bananas, as is the custom of Maya, which always gives free.

"Please." Ansel watched Zamar, who was staring at the sea. The man, wearing a shirt and a black hat.

Ansel pretended, cleaning the next table, while eavesdropping on their conversation.

"Master, the workers have come."

"Let them start."

Quickly, Ansel moved to avoid suspicion. He also greeted visitors, to enter his shop.

"Sir. Little brother, where was it?"

"Oh, that's my wife. Father, what do you need?"

"Oh, your wife. Like, still a girl. Come with me." Ansel according to him. They're walking towards Zamar's place.

"Sir, this is the shop owner. We asked them to prepare food." Ansel. Fortunately his clothes today, still quite ordinary.

"Can you prepare food for the workers?More or less, for two months. They numbered thirty people. Eat it, twice a day."

"Can, sir."

"Goodoo. The payment, please get in touch with my secretary."

"Yes, Sir. Thank you." Thank you."

Zamar left immediately, not even finishing his coffee. Now stay Ansel, with a stiff man in front of him.

"You work here?" Huan asked with a glance.

"Yes, Sir."

"You're Ansel's doctor, aren't you?"

Goddamnit! ansel's Overestimated. Why are the eyes of this secretary so observant?

"This is my shop, sir. As a side."

"Oh. Give me the account number, I'll transfer for the first month."

"Good, fine, just a minute." Ansel pulled out his phone.

"Yes, Sir. Thank you." Thank you."

"From tomorrow, they're already working. But, you're alone? Don't have employees?"

"There, Sir. Wherever possible, I was alone. They're busy inside."

Huan, don't respond. He left immediately, after the transaction was completed.

Ansel lifted up the coffee cups, then cleaned the table. The tip of his eyes, still paying attention to Zamar, whose distance was not far. He was also curious, what is that man doing here? He called the worker, for what?

"Mas, pay up!" the visitor called.

Visitors began to decrease, Ansel who was struck by curiosity was already out of focus. He chose to approach the workers, who came to buy mineral water.

"What's that rich man doing, sir?"

"Villa. He said, for the wife."

"Oh, the location is far away, sir?"

"Decet, really. Just there, look, right?" show the Father. "He said, the boss bought all the beach areas. But, he said he wouldn't drive out merchants here."

"Oh." That's all, Ansel answered.

By noon, the sun is getting hotter, but the beach is getting crowded with visitors. Ansel began to be overwhelmed, so inevitably, he had to call for help.

The waiter, who works at the mother's home, has now moved. They were called, this morning and just arrived.

"What are we doing here, sir?"

"Help me!"

Ansel gave them the instructions they had to do. Until they split the task. Men serve, burn fish and serve visitors. The women were in the kitchen to cook and prepare food.

"El," Maya unwittingly hugs Ansel.

"Eat, it's noon."

"Where's Zamar?"

"May," Ansel pulled Maya's hand to sit down. "Well, you move. Zamar can find you anytime. He's building a villa for his wife."

"Villa?" Maya. He looked down, avoiding Ansel's gaze. "I can't go. What about my efforts here?"

"I just worked with them. In two months, you have to prepare food, for the workers. May." Ansel touched Maya's shoulder, asking her beautiful eyes to look at him. "I'll find employees, to help. But, no matter what, you can't stay away forever."

"What do I do, El?"

"choose, May. Move or face it! You're gonna keep going, you just have to come check on her."

"But, _"

"Are you ready to meet and face it?" Ansel's gaze, demanding a firm answer from Maya.

"Then where should I go?"

"As I said. You can open a business in the city, without having to serve your customers yourself. I'll help you. You can work behind a desk."

"I_"

"Think, May. You've already disappeared, so be it, stay that way. I'll give you until night."

Ansel came out, after putting food on the bed. For some reason, Zamar's arrival, also made him unsettled. He was disturbed, as Zamar would seize something that belonged to him.

"Young master. Big lady, can look for us." The butler, now starting to get in the fog.

"Uncle, do you have any family or friends who want to work?"

"Have. A lot of it."

"Call them tomorrow, to see me. Remember this is a secret. Don't talk about it in front of my mom and sister."

"Okay, young master. But when can we go home?"

"Last day."

Ansel was getting busier, his phone kept ringing non-stop.

"Have you found a suitable place?"

"Oh, young master. We just checked it."

"Well, make a purchase. And get my apartment ready tonight. Call the waiter to clean and also fill the refrigerator with groceries."

"You want to move house?"

"Not much, ask. Just do!"

"Okay, young master."
