"Thief?!"Lilian asked in surprise.
"Yes...there was a distinguished guest in this hotel who lost his ring. he put it on his desk, he also said that this young man named Arsen was near the table. therefore, the hotel will first process this case to investigate this matter, " said the hotel officer.
"Who is the guest? show me, " said Lilian curiously. The hotel clerk directly pointed to the restaurant; he pointed at Mike, smiling mockingly at Lilian and Arsen. Lilianpun immediately knew that it was all slander for Arsen.
"I didn't steal, Li," Arsen whispered to Lilian.
"I know. this must be the slander of the Frog!" replied Lilian furiously. He pointed to Mike, who was currently laughing in the hotel restaurant.
"What matters to me is that you don't believe the slander. now, you eat first, you're already hungry. let me explain it to you and -"
"No! my hunger is gone. I will accompany you to the examination. because I am sure you are not guilty of anything," Lilian said.
"But...you're already hungry."
"Sir, we will both undergo an examination. where is it?"Lilian asked the hotel staff and did not heed Arsen's words earlier.
"There is a security guard who will take you there," said the hotel clerk, pointing to a security officer coming to them.
At this moment, Lilian knew that inside the hotel restaurant, Mike was still watching them. Therefore, Lilian deliberately hung spoiled in the arms of Arsen. It whispers affectionately to give Arsen a pep and piss Mike off. Then along with Arsen, Lilian stepped out of place.
According to Lilian's arrangement, Mike was very angry with Lilian's behavior in the restaurant. Mike clenched his fists and beat up innocent restaurant chairs, Mike!
Arriving in the examination room, a senior security guard, looking at Arsen's face, wanted to act like a police officer in the interrogation room who tried to tear down the defendant's guts before starting his questions.
"You are suspected of taking a watch belonging to Mr. Mike that was left on the seven ballroom tables of this hotel last night. he said, when he left his watch there, only you were there," said Mr. security guard began his trial.
"That night, I didn't even sit at any table, Sir. as a cleaner, I'm used to standing outside when there's an event. last night, it was the same. I stood outside, to go on stage, so, I assure you, that I never sat at any table," Arsen replied calmly. An answer that made Lilian happy.
"But, there was a distinguished guest in this hotel who insisted on seeing you approach that table and take his Rolex watch, that's for sure," the security guard insisted.
"Come on, Sir. this hotel has CCTV, right? you can look there, find evidence if I did approach the table or not, " said Arsen calmly.
"It can't be dong. the words of our esteemed guest, it's a dead price and - - - -"
"Come on, Sir. my uncle's a cop. Let him come check the case and see the CCTV, so that everything is bright, What about Sir?" cut Lilian trying to bully because of the uncompromising attitude of the security guard who seems to have been arranged by Mike, even though Lilian doesn't have a police uncle at all.
"Er....oh....eh...that's it. come on, I'll let you go. you can go, " said the guard after a moment's silence.
Arsen was still speechless, but Lilian pulled his hand to take him out.
"Let's eat yuck. eat outside the hotel aja. it's too late, " Lilian whispered in Arsen's ear. Arsen nodded his head.
Finally, the two found a simple restaurant about 50 meters behind the hotel; they ordered food and sat face to face at the middle table.
"This afternoon, shall we go out?"Lilian said as she looked at Arsen's sturdy jaw.
"Out?"
"Yes. get out of the hotel. actually, we get two free days at the hotel, but I don't like Mike's slander, so we better get out, okay?"
"Okay. I agree. actually, it's a pity, because the room is quite good - - -"
"Later. If there is a holiday, we stay at another hotel; I have a member who gets a big voucher to stay at the hotel, and----" Lilian did not continue her words because she just realized that she had invited a man to stay with her at the hotel. He realized it was inappropriate to say such words, so he immediately fell silent.
"Why silence? oh... The hotel Voucher has been used, right? it's okay then. later I will work hard so that I can have money for us to stay at the hotel, " said Arsen, who did not realize why Lilian was silent.
"Eh....yes, yes, " replied Lilian carelessly. She was pretty uncomfortable with the talk of staying at this hotel. Because, in her whole life, she had never stayed alone with a guy in a hotel, boarding house, apartment, or whatever, which was the first night Lilian, stayed with a guy; fortunately, even though they were roommates, they slept separately.
"Tell dong about you. your childhood, your parents and your ideals. let's go?"Lilian said to switch the conversation.
"I am...I wasn't actually born here. I come from far away. my mother was from here but then, came with my father and stayed at my father's place, " said Arsen beginning his story; he stopped for a moment because it coincided with the arrival of a waiter who put their order food on the dinner table.
"Oh, so? You are from that area, and only your mother is from Jakarta. Then, you migrated to Jakarta to try your luck, right?" guess Lilian after the waiter left.
"Um... "that's it," replied Arsen. He was forced to lie because he didn't want to reveal his true identity to Lilian. It was because Arsen wanted to approach Lilian as a poor man who had nothing.
"So what? "go ahead," Lilian insisted.
"Um... my goals are simple. I just want to meet a woman, who really loves me, a woman who is willing to live with me in joy and sorrow until death do them part."
"Hihihi..."
"Why laugh anyway?"
"Yes it is. I'm asking for ideals. the name of that dream, everywhere means, the dream of being a doctor, be a pilot, be a businessman, you name it. if what you said earlier, it's about mate not ideals."
"Wow. wrong dong?"
"Yes wrong. his example is like me, when I was little, I actually wanted to be a doctor, then, in high school, I began to be interested in becoming an architect. finally, when I graduated from high school, I didn't go to medical school, I went to engineering. and finally, graduate to be an architect and work in our office. if so, did you go to college?"
