In search of a job, Aryan wandered the streets of X city. But he couldn't find a job anywhere. That's when he arrives outside the Moon Night Club, his last hope. However, for some reason, Aryan had no hope of finding a job here either. It's because he wasn't prepared to secure a job without any documents, and Moon Night Club was one of the most popular clubs in the city. Disheartened, Aryan enters the Moon Night Club, where the receptionist introduces him to the manager of the Moonlight Club, Julie. Julie was an intelligent and beautiful woman with a soft heart. She had been working at the Moon Night Club for less than 5 years and had been the manager for 3 years.
At that moment, Aryan was seated in Julie's office. Julie asks Aryan for his name. Aryan remains silent for a while, but then he reveals his name as Robin. Aryan couldn't reveal his real name due to fear; he couldn't tell anyone that he had served a sentence of three years in jail for a murder charge. If anyone even slightly suspects this, they wouldn't consider hiring him, let alone looking at his face.
Aryan's news had just calmed down, and not much time had passed, so he was afraid that if he revealed his real name, someone might recognize him. After disclosing his name, Aryan falls silent and waits for Julie's next question.
Julie doesn't doubt Aryan's appearance. Firstly, the photo of Aryan being shown on the news channel was from three years ago, and his look had changed significantly by now. He had become thinner and his face showed signs of maturity. Although his appearance couldn't be easily recognized, anyone who looked closely could identify him. However, Julie didn't have any suspicions about Aryan because she never watched news channels. She disliked seeing news related to crime, corruption, and scandals. Instead, she mostly watched entertainment news. That's why Julie had seen Aryan for the first time today.
Julie smiles at Aryan and asks, "Robin, what kind of work can you do?"
Aryan replies without much expression, "I'm ready to do any kind of work."
With a questioning look, Julie asks, "Any kind of work...?"
"Yes, I'm in need of a job at the moment. I don't have a place to stay right now. If I get a job, I can arrange for my accommodation," Aryan responds.
"Are you new to this city, searching for work?" Julie inquires.
"Yes," Aryan confirms.
Julie then says, "Alright, show me your qualifications and documents. I'll try to find a job for you accordingly. Besides, we often need handsome guys like you at the club. Your presence would make our female customers happy."
Aryan finds hope in Julie's words about finding work for him. However, as his attention shifts to the topic of documents, his hope quickly diminishes. He isn't sure how to respond to Julie's questions because admitting that he lacks documents would mean he wouldn't get a job here either.
When Aryan remains silent in response to Julie's inquiries, she asks, "What's wrong? Aren't you giving me an answer? Don't you have any documents? Have you ever received an education?"
Aryan lowers his gaze and says apologetically, "I'm sorry. I don't have any documents, nor do I have any certificates to prove my qualifications. I shouldn't have come here for a job without any documents." Saying this, Aryan stands up and begins to leave the place.
Julie contemplates for a moment. Seeing Aryan about to leave didn't sit well with her. She didn't know why, but she had liked Aryan from the moment she saw him. Her heart was telling her not to let him go at any cost. Julie was one of those who always listened to both her mind and her heart. Once again, Julie heeded the call of her heart, and as Aryan starts walking away, she calls out from behind, "Robin, where are you going? I haven't given you my answer yet, and you're already leaving. I didn't like the way you were about to leave like that..."
Hearing Julie's words, Aryan halts in his tracks. Suddenly, a spark appears in his eyes. He turns back and sits back down on the chair. Looking at Julie, he asks, "What do you mean? I didn't understand your intention. Are you willing to give me a job without any documents?"
Julie responds, "Robin, it's the club's policy. We can't hire anyone without documents."
Aryan's disappointment returns upon hearing these words from Julie. The slight gleam that had appeared on his face earlier fades away. "I can understand. That's why I was leaving. I can't get a job here without any documents," Aryan says with a sense of resignation in his voice.
"Don't be so quick to feel disappointed. Listen to me completely first. It's true that we can't give anyone a job without any documents. But I believe you can't be a bad person. That's why I can find some work for you, one way or another. You said you're willing to do any kind of work," Julie explains.
"If you're willing to give me a job, then nothing could make me happier. I have no problem. I'm ready to do any work. In fact, I'm even willing to work as a cleaner if needed," Aryan says with a sense of gratitude and relief in his voice.
Julie chuckles at Aryan's response and says, "A cleaner? Do you really think I'd give such a handsome guy like you a cleaner's job? If my boss sees, he might think I've lost my mind, that I'm giving you a cleaner's job and for what reason? What did I see in you that I offered you a cleaner's job? And in what world did you choose such a job for yourself?"
Aryan feels a bit embarrassed and blushing, he responds, "I just need a job right now. I don't care what the work is."
Julie teases, "You look very cute when you blush..."
Aryan doesn't say anything in response to Julie's comment, he just lowers his gaze.
"Alright, no need to feel awkward. You look adorable when you blush. Tell me, have you ever worked as a bartender before?" Julie asks.
"No, I haven't done anything like that before," Aryan replies.
"Alright, have you worked in any other job before?" Julie inquires.
"I've been working as a part-time waiter in a restaurant for some time now," Aryan explains.
"Oh, so you've been working as a waiter. If you can work as a waiter, you can work as one here too. By the way, I want you to learn the skills of becoming a bartender here. Because a month from now, the bartender of this club will be leaving his job. And you have a good appearance, would make the job perfect for you. You can attract both the girls coming here and perhaps even the guys," Julie suggests with a playful tone.
As Julie makes her comment, Aryan's eyes widen, and he gazes at her intently. At this moment, Aryan was observing Julie with keen interest.
"What happened? Didn't you like my compliment?" Julie asks, noticing Aryan's reaction.
Aryan quickly lowers his eyes and says, "It's not that. I just haven't heard something like that in a long time."
"Well, if that's the case, then you better get used to receiving such compliments. Most of the guys and girls who come here are spoiled rich kids. So, you'll have to learn how to handle them. You might hear such compliments from them quite often, especially because you really do have good looks," Julie advises playfully.
Aryan understands that Julie's advice is spot on. He knows that in a club like this, he'll have to interact with various types of clients. His experiences from hanging out in clubs during his college days had given him some insight into this scenario.
"You're not used to working around these kinds of people, but that's okay. You'll get used to it gradually. You can work as a waiter here for a month and also learn bartender skills. So, a month from now, I'll promote you to the bartender job," Julie suggests.
"Thank you very much. I won't forget your kindness," Aryan expresses his gratitude.
"Robin, I'm not doing you a favor. I'm giving you a job without any documents. But please, make sure to arrange your documents as soon as possible. Otherwise, if my boss finds out, both of our jobs might be in jeopardy," Julie sternly reminds.
"I promise, I'll arrange my documents and I really appreciate your help for this job. You've helped me when no one else was willing to. I'll remember your kindness throughout my life," Aryan promises.
Julie nods and says, "Alright, then. We'll see how you do in your new role. Good luck, Aryan."
Aryan smiles and nods back, feeling grateful for this opportunity.
Julie smiles and says, "And Robin, remember, everyone here addresses me by my name. So, you should also call me by my name, and my name is Julie. I hope you'll remember."
Aryan, with a smile, replies, "I'll remember, Julie."
Julie, still smiling, adds, "Hearing my name from your mouth feels really sweet."
Upon hearing this, Aryan becomes shy once again, and due to his embarrassment, his cheeks turn slightly red.
"Alright, I won't bother you anymore, and now you can go. You can join here from tomorrow," Julie says.
With his head slightly bowed, Aryan thanks Julie once again, and with a smile, he leaves. At that moment, there was a very endearing smile on Aryan's face. His face was radiating happiness, and who knows how long he had felt this kind of joy after so many years. He couldn't express his happiness at this moment, but the sparkle in his eyes and the smile on his face said it all.
