Ooh, HOT UNCLE
Chapter 38

That morning Arumi deliberately prepared early and left 1 hour earlier than usual.

He had another destination before going to college.

The car that Arumi was driving began to exit the elite residential area. He drove his car to Gea's house. The distance between his house and Gea is not too far away. Not as rich as both Arumi's parents, but the Gea family also includes a family that is located. They have a family business in the culinary field.

Arumi deliberately wanted to come secretly without Gea's knowledge, although since yesterday had planned to meet his best friend and talk to him with four eyes. Arumi will ask Gea for an explanation that will not reply or answer her phone. Even her phone number was turned off and Gea had not appeared in group chats since yesterday afternoon.

The girl had good intentions towards her best friend. Gea has been her best friend for over 3 years. Not having a heart feels like letting Gea have problems alone.

"Why was his stuff taken out.?" Arumi sharpened his gaze from across the Gea house. From the row of large houses that look lonely, the activity in the courtyard of the house Gea most striking. There are 2 big box cars parked in the courtyard of Gea's house. And 1 car parked on the side of the road.

Arumi increased the speed of his vehicle because to turn the direction to get to the house of Gea. Once parked the car on the side of the road, Arumi immediately went down and into the yard of his best friend's house.

"For Om, Auntie," Arumi approached and greeted Gea's parents who were directing some people to transport goods into the box car.

"Arumi," Both Gea's parents compactly turned their heads.

"Why are his things in Tan's transport.? Om and Aunty don't move house, do they.?" Arumi was just confused to see all the furniture and personal items removed from the house.

"Did Gea not tell you yet.?" Ask Farah Lirih. He embraces Arumi's shoulder and brings Arumi into the house.

Arumi and Gea are very close, so Farah treats her daughter's best friend like her own.

"What's really going on Tan.?" Arumi sat on the sofa that had not been transported. He looks riled up.

Farah sat down next to Arumi.

"We're moving to our hometown. In Surabaya," Lirih Farah with sorrow on her face.

"Our family business went bankrupt and this house has to be sold."

"Om invites Auntie and the children to go home to Surabaya to start a business there from scratch again." Farah seemed devastated to tell the disaster that was happening to her family.

While Arumi gawked in disbelief. His family was having a hard time, but Gea told him nothing.

Now Arumi knows why Gea sold herself and stole Glen's expensive watch.

"But Tan, what about Gea's lecture.?" Ask Arumi. He was not ready to separate from his best friend.

"Gea will remain in college in Jakarta until graduation. Luckily we paid the entire tuition fee at the beginning, so Gea can still go to college." Farah is full of relief.

Maybe if he does not pay the entire cost at the beginning, Gea can come out of campus and go to Surabaya with his family.

"Tante, I'm so sorry. May Aunty and Om rise again and successfully start a new venture." Arumi said sincerely.

"Thank God Gea's still in college here."

"Can I see Gea.?" Arumi asked as she spread her gaze upstairs, hoping to meet Gea and talk to her.

"We also actually stayed at the Aunt's family home for 2 weeks. It's just that Gea wants to learn to live alone, so she lives in a boarding house." His speech.

"Now this house has been sold, so Auntie must immediately move to Surabaya."

"Gea didn't say anything to you.?" Farah's question was only answered by a nod by Arumi, the girl was out of words because she did not know that all this time Gea hid a big problem on her.

Arumi feels failed to be a good friend because he does not know if the financial condition of the Gea family is bad.

...******...

After knowing the boarding address that Arumi got from Farah, now Arumi is standing in front of one of the boarding doors located on the 2nd floor. Good and big for the size of the student.

Arumi knocked on the door a few times. Before long the innkeeper came out and looked surprised to see the arrival of Arumi. She was about to close the door again, but Arumi first held her back and forced her way in.

Gea couldn't move anymore, she closed the door and sat down by the side of the bed. Arumi sat next to him.

"I've sold that hour." Gea. His eyes were straight ahead and looked bright.

"I've already used half the money, I'll return the rest to the same person directly." Gea returned.

Arumi was still silent, honestly he did not want to discuss the matter of the clock that Gea stole.

Arumi is more interested in discussing the problem of the Gea family that his best friend is trying to cover.

"Forget about that clock." Arumi.

"You owe me an explanation, Ge," Arumi grabbed Gea's hand, making Gea look at her.

"What's the point of me.?" Tanya Arumi was disappointed. He felt that Gea did not really consider him a friend because he kept his problem alone without telling him.

"I've considered you more than a friend, but you," Arumi did not continue. He let out a heavy sigh while releasing Gea's hand.

"Finished college, get your stuff done. My house is wide open for you, Ge."

"We better get to college now. We'll talk later."

"I promise to keep everything a secret from Aileen and Sena." Arumi then moved from her seat. He and Gea have to get to campus soon because 20 minutes of classes are about to start.

Gea went with the bag she had been holding since.

"Ar,, thank you," Gea's voice choked. Arumi who had just opened the door, now looked back. He smiled broadly full of sincerity and nodded his head.

The two then left together to the campus which is only 600 meters from the boarding of Gea.

"Later I will ask Om Agam to bring you and Om Glen together. May Om Glen make peace." Arumi.

Gea looked teary-eyed, she nodded faintly and thanked Arumi repeatedly.
