Angel did not move, her steps froze instantly. The girl sat back in her chair and faced the man who was still holding her hand. "Your wife came and she asked me not to see you again,"
"When have you obeyed the words of others? I don't think you're that kind of girl. Are you the one who doesn't want to see me?" asked the man without loosening the slightest grip of his hand as if afraid of losing.
Angel took a long breath. "I just want to work, you know. I don't want any drama in my work, Mr. Morgan,"
"Therefore, Angel, come with me. I'll give you whatever Madam Sienna wants" said the man, Dante Morgan.
"Have you always been alone like this? Can't you just leave me a quiet life?" angel asked, his voice sounding tired. "What do you want?"
"You!" dante replied briefly and firmly.
Both of Angel's blue beads stare straight at Dante, the handsome man who has stolen his first kiss and made his life unsettled ever since. The kiss she gave off, the kiss she had imagined would go on beautifully, not just a lustful, forced kiss like yesterday. Without feeling, clear circles fell from Angel's eyes. The girl quickly removed it.
"Why are you crying?" dante asked, his voice that had been cold had now become a little warm.
"You're making me sick, Mr. Morgan!" angel answered in a clenched voice.
Dante immediately moved his hand away from the pretty girl's hand. "Sorry, I don't know. I just don't want you to get away from me,"
"B-, it's not about that! Forget that! I have to go back and work!" angel said, then he tidied up his books and held them in his chest.
Dante skimmed through one of those books and it was a textbook. Dante was smiling. "How old are you? Why are you reading a textbook like that? You like to read? You can read books as you age, Angel,"
The man pulled one of the books from Angel's arms and still smiled and shook his head. "Sit down first. This is definitely not a book for a girl your age. Why are you reading this?"
Again, a tear drop fell from the corner of Angel's eye. "It's all because of your kiss, Mr. Morgan!"
"My kiss? What does this have to do with your reading?" dante asked, this time he asked with a little amused. Especially seeing the expression of Angel's funny face.
"That was my first kiss! You took it from me! Plus, your very beautiful wife looks smart and-, and-, ... I have to work!" angel said then he ran away leaving Dante laughing alone in the tavern.
It seems that Dante is in love. Angel had managed to break the iceberg in his heart and the shadow of the girl now continued to be in his mind and heart. The man then moved out of his chair after he slipped a few pieces of banknotes under the bottle and caught up with Angel.
There was no need for her to ask where Angel was, as only one place was the girl's destination. Madam Sienna House's.
"Where's Angel?" dante asked when he saw Madam Sienna as a guest on his doorstep.
"It's time for him to work, sir," replied Madam Sienna. Apparently this time he decided to be firm with Dante, seen from the face and manner of speech of the woman named Sienna Miller.
Without further ado, Dante took out his black magic card and took the EDC machine next to Madam Sienna and operated the machine himself. He was sure that no one had ever used the machine. "Say name! I'll take Angel for a month!"
"Sa-, one month? Whoa! Whoa! Well, that would be expensive, sir! Whoa!" madam Sienna did not stop fascinated by the black card in Dante's hand. "Tell me, what made you interested in that girl?"
"Could reason? I just need you to mention your armour to Angel!" answer Dante firmly.
Madam Sienna persisted in principle. He did not mention the numbers Dante wanted. "Yes, I need a reason. After all, Angel is the kid I raised with my sweat and my hard work, so before I let go, I have a right to know, what's your reason for being attracted to my daughter!"
"You already have a wife, sir! Do you want your wife if you take my son with you for a month?" ask Madam Sienna again. Still vividly remembered Evelyn Morgan's disdainful face, as the woman gave her some money.
"It's my business and I beg you, don't slow down" Dante said.
Madam Sienna went inside and approached Angel in her room. The beautiful girl was preparing to welcome the guest that Madam Sienna had scheduled for her.
"Carmen," said Madam Sienna.
Angel immediately looked. Carmen is Angel's real name. She earned the nickname Angel because of her incredible beauty and no one can match her beauty in that small town. "Why do you call me that? Carmen's long dead and she's buried!"
"You keep little Carmen in my eyes. You know that guy? He's waiting for you and insists on taking you. You want to go with him?" madam Sienna asked again gently while helping Angel to comb her long brown hair.
Angel stopped the makeup review on her face and looked at Madam Sienna. "He's waiting for me?"
Madam Sienna nodded. "Yes, I'm just worried about you, Carmen. You will be alone in a foreign place along with other strangers. You and your friends I've considered my own daughter, especially kai, Carmen,"
"You want to go with him?" ask Madam Sienna again to Angel.
Angel frowned, she was thinking whether she wanted to go with Mr Morgan and meet his wife or would he stay with Madam Sienna?
"He kissed me, madam. Mr. Morgan kissed me. It was my first kiss and my feelings at that moment instantly churned. It's like there's fireworks going off in my heart when he kisses me" Angel said. "Since then, I've been numb, unable to feel anything, but then, I miss her,"
Madam Sienna hugged him. He understood very well that his foster daughter never wanted to be kissed by any man and he held to that principle. If the rich man manages to kiss her, it means, .... Is it possible, in the end Angel fell in love with the man?
"My dear, try to forget the man. You're not comparable to him. I mean you're prettier than his wife, but their place? It's not for us, honey," said Madam Sienna again. "If you want to try to live there and make sure you feel, I'll let you come with him for a month,"
Angel fell silent again, and he asked Madam Sienna, the only person he had considered family. "You're letting me go with him?"
"Yes, please. Come back anytime if you feel uncomfortable there, dear Carmen," said Madam Sienna. He was really worried about his favorite foster child.
After Angel nodded, Madam Sienna put some money into Angel's hands. "wear. Buy a cell phone and call me if you need a talkative. It's my number,"
Madam Sienna wrote down her cell phone number on a piece of paper and she gave it to Angel. "Call me anytime,"
Before long, Madam Sienna came out and met Dante. It is with a heavy heart that he says that Angel will be with him for a month and he also says that Angel has the right to go home whenever he wants.
"You don't have to pay! Just give Angel your money!" tukas Madam Sienna's. Undeniably, he is sad and still not sincerely let go of his favorite daughter.
About a quarter of an hour later, Angel came out with a suitcase and a small bag. Dante immediately welcomed him. "Are you ready to go now?"
Angel looked at her comrades-in-arms who had ushered in her departure and for the last time, she hugged Madam Sienna. "I'll call you, madam. Thanks for everything,"
"Blessed always, Carmen," whispered Madam Sienna and she immediately went inside as soon as Dante took Angel away.
