May is silent and wipe her tears that is about to fall on her cheeks.

Reza gets the papers and enveloped from her hands.

" The hospital said that everything is free except for his medicine that we needed to buy outside. And it's been two months, I thought I can pay the loan from the bank that I used for the first month in the hospital, but I did not expect that he will be diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. The truth is I already sell the three cows just to pay some of it, but the interest is just too high. " May is somewhat depressed.

Reza has been silent the whole day and Lily noticed it, she knew that when she is like this she might be in a deep thought about something.

" Are you okay? " Lily had a genuine concern look on her face.

" Do you know somewhere where I can get a job ? A part-time job?" Reza said while wiping the cabinets.

" Is it about Mr. Ray Roland ? Your father ? " Lily asked in a soft voice.

Reza nodded with a sigh.

" I don't know if it would suit you, but we only have one big time businessman here who hires a beautiful lady, Mr. Chia. The owner of the night owl club. " Lily hesitated at first.

" I might try I guess..." Reza answered.

NIGHT OWL CLUB

Mr. Chia look at Reza from top to bottom that makes her nervous and gulp.

" Isn't the daughter of the Roland household? " Mr. Chia said while letting go of the smoke from his mouth.

Mr. Chia is not that old, from Reza's assumption he might be still in his 50s. He is a small in height and wearing a suit as a typical businessman in a movie, everything he wears is a gold.

" From my memories, your father was not a fan of my little paradise. Did he know that you are here now? " Mr. Chia ask in suspicion.

Everyone knew that Mr. Ray Roland was once a cop who is loyal to his duty, until he retired.

" I ...." Reza bow her head and lost of words.

In an instant a woman with a seductive dress opened the door and there is a man who is behind her.

" Darling, Dylan is here! " Aria said with a lovely mode.

Aria covered her mouth when she realized that Reza was there.

" I didn't know that you are busy. " Aria looks at her husband.

" Don't be jealous now darling, Reza came for an interview. " Mr. Chia said while putting down his cigar and Aria came to his side, sit on his lap.

Dylan crossed his arms and lean on the door after they closed it.

" Don't scare her will you? " Aria get Reza's resume on the table and read it.

" Applying as a waitress?..." Aria covered her mouth to prevent her laugh.

" You know what kind of business do we have here right? And applying as a waitress?... Haha," Aria cannot contain her laugh.

" I ... I'm sorry. It seems that I came to the wrong place. " Reza closed her eyes because of embarrassment and was supposed to stand.

"Come on sweetie I didn't tell that we don't need you here. We don't need waitress actually but if you know how to experiment with different kinds of alcohol then we might need you. Barista ? " Aria said.

Reza bite and licked her lower lip as a sign that she's thinking about it.

Dylan who is watching the whole conversation saw this and a certain someone who did the same appeared in his mind.

" Okay. When will I start ? " Reza decided at last.

" Well the business starts at 7:00 evening. You can be in charge of those early comers who want to chill in the bar. " Aria said.

Reza's face lightened up because the nursery is closing at 3:30, and she still had time to rest.

" How about tomorrow? You seem to have a sad day today. " Aria said.

Reza smiled.

DYLAN

Reza stand and started to walk going out of the door.

While walking, she starts to have this feeling of butterflies in the stomach while watching the man looking at her with an intense expression that she cannot determine what is it. As if his eyes is longing, sad and pleading. But Reza had to admit that the man is bringing her excitement into her core.

Reza gulp first before speaking.

" Do I know you? " Reza said without thinking.

" Do you know me? " The big voice Dylan can be heard.

Their eyes meet and both felt the intensity.

" Can I passed through the door? You're blocking it. " Reza can't wait to get away from him.

Dylan smiled and started to take a step going to Mr. Chia's table, but he whispered something while passing beside Reza.

" I thought you were dead. " He said.

Reza did not take any interest about it and thought that it's one of his playboy facade to be mysterious until he messes with any woman's head.
