Chapter 3 - THREE

Selena's pov

  Now I'm in front of my best friend's house. Because I don't know where else to go. Maybe only Lili and Sarah can help me now.

  I pressed the bell with shaking hands. Because the weather outside is very cold and then added with my broken feelings. It made me even more miserable.

  The first face I saw now was Lili. She was my best friend in high school. The girl with curly hair hugged me. She said that she missed me a lot. Then she released her hug and looked at my face with pity.

  "Oh my God! What happened to you? Did you cry all night? Your eyes look so sad,"

  I could only nod at the words that came out of Lili's mouth.

  "Oh my God, come in quickly Selena," Lili said pulling my wrist quickly.

  Sarah now came out of her room and she was also very surprised to see me. Of course she was shocked because I seemed to be a tramp. I was carrying a big bag and my face was also very wrinkled.

  "Tell us both what happened?" Sarah held both my wrists.

  I sobbed even more. Remembering how evil Cody was.

  "Are you hurt because of Cody? Did he ask to break up with you?" Lili asked very curious.

  I nodded three times and now I started talking. I tried to control my emotions.

  "I'm so messed up right now. My life is really like shit. I got fired from my job. Cody also suddenly broke up with me. He left with my money and gold necklace. He even borrowed money in my name. Now I have to pay for everything. Do you know how much it is? Five hundred thousand dollars!" I said with widened eyes. I sighed heavily.

  "Son of a bitch! Cody is crazy! I promise I'll punch him if I ever see him!" Sarah shouted, clenching her hands into fists.

  "You'd better work at my place!" said Lili enthusiastically.

  I was silent for a moment. Lili works in a hotel. She was the hotel's cleaner. That means she has to clean every dirty room in the hotel.

  "Well maybe that's not so bad. I'll give it a try," I said with a nod of my head.

  For the time being I stayed at Lili and Sarah's house. They were the only ones who could currently help me.

  A few days later I was ready to work at the hotel. Lili taught me many things about the job as a cleaner.

  "Lili, I'm actually very nervous about working in such a luxurious hotel. Because all the guests in this hotel are important people. I'm afraid I'll make a faux pas," I said softly.

  "You just take it easy. If you get used to it, you'll be able to get through everything well. Now it's your turn to clean room 311."

  Now I'm pushing my cleaning equipment. There were rags and all kinds of cleaning tools. I looked at the door and found it unlocked. Yes, maybe the guest forgot to lock the door after leaving the room.

  I walked casually and suddenly I saw a couple in a blanket on the bed.

"Sorry, I'm sorry. I really didn't know anyone was in this room," I exclaimed quickly and quickly stepped out but suddenly the man shouted loudly.

  "Hey! Stupid woman! Come here!" The man exclaimed and I was forced to stop my steps.

  I turned around slowly. I saw the man's face looked angry.

  "Come here!" He ordered sternly. While I saw the woman beside him looking at me like trash.

  "If you don't want to get fired. Don't tell anyone about this incident. Do you understand?"

  "I understand, sir," I said with my head down. Because I was really scared. Who would I tell anyway. I didn't even know the man in front of me.

  "Get out now!" the man said firmly.

  I quickly left the room and closed the door tightly. My eyeballs looked up as I breathed heavily walking down the long hallway.

  "Oh my God, how could I be so careless. Actually, that guy was wrong too. Why didn't he lock the door? What a crazy man. Ah, never mind. I don't need to think about that guy. I hope I won't meet that guy again," I said hopefully in my heart.

  

  Cristian's pov

 

  "I'm not in the mood anymore," I said, sitting down quickly.

  The woman who was my secretary suddenly had a sullen face.

  "Christina, please. Don't make me angry. I still want you Christian," Kitty said with a pouty face. She was so spoiled.

  "We'll continue sometime," I said lazily. Although I didn't know when I would be interested in Kitty again.

  Now I quickly went to the bathroom. Afterwards I was ready to meet a client at this hotel. The meeting will start in an hour. I intend to go to the hotel's restaurant to eat.

  Kitty was holding my arm in a spoiled manner. Her face was pleading.

  "Crhistian I hope you won't forget this incident dear,"

  "Let go of me Kitty," I said firmly as I moved my arm and now I was released from her grasp.

  "Christian!" Kitty called out in an angry tone.

  "Stop that loud voice. I don't like it! I'll just give you some money," I said quickly opening my phone and sending her some money.

  Kitty immediately looked at her phone screen and saw that it was a very large amount according to Kitty.

  "This is too much Christian. That's very kind of you," Kitty said with a sweet smile looking at her phone screen.

  "Enjoy!" I left at a fast pace after saying that.

Arriving at a restaurant in this hotel. There was a very luxurious ornament with a layer of gold. Everything is gold-colored. The impression of luxury is very thick in this room.

  When I was enjoying my delicious food suddenly someone nudged my elbow. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a hotel cleaner who mistakenly entered my room.

  "Why are you always so careless, you stupid woman!" I said in annoyance.

  "Sorry sir, forgive me," he said with a guilty face. Her hand was holding a cleaning tool.

  "You won't believe the price of this food. This is very expensive food. If it falls I'm sure you won't be able to pay for it," I said with annoyance while looking at my delicious food that was almost ruined by this stupid girl in front of me.

  "I'm sorry sir, once again I apologize," she said with an unfocused look on my face. This girl looked behind me and suddenly she walked quickly to the direction behind me. What a rude girl this cleaner is.

  "Cody! What are you in this expensive hotel for? You can even eat at this restaurant. Oh my God, I can't believe this," the cleaning lady said in a high tone. She was scolding a man who was sitting with a beautiful woman.

  Unfortunately, I heard their argument and it made me uncomfortable.

  "Hey! Selana! Don't make me angry. You're no longer my lover! You'd better get lost!" The man snapped angrily.

  "How can you eat with that girl next to you in an expensive hotel like this? You owe me five hundred thousand dollars! And I have to pay off that debt! You're really bad Cody! Why did you have to use my name to borrow that debt?"

  Just as suddenly as the girl finished speaking. The man kicked the table. I was curious to see the two of them. Because some people also saw them arguing.

  I saw the man slap the girl roughly. I don't know why I was so angry with the man's actions.

  The cleaning girl fought the man by trying to punch him but unfortunately the girl was too weak. The girl got punched in the face and her nose bled. Shit! I can't let this go on. I really hate men who hurt girls like that. I walked quickly to the table.

  "Don't hurt this girl! If you don't leave here right now. I'll kick you out of here!" I snapped at the man harshly.

  He looked at me sarcastically. But afterward he looked scared. Maybe it was my appearance that indicated I was a rich man. That made the man and the girl beside him choose to leave quickly from the restaurant table.

  "Are you okay?" I asked the cleaning girl worriedly. I saw her looking down, clutching her bloody nose.

  I held her hand quickly.

  "Come with me to the hospital now," I said quickly.

  When I arrived at the hospital, I waited in the waiting room. I hoped that the girl was okay. Because I really felt sorry for the girl who was injured like that.

  "Are you okay?" I asked anxiously looking at the girl in front of me.

  "I feel fine now," the girl replied while holding her bruised lips. Her nose was no longer bleeding.

  "I'm sorry, but I can't repay your kindness sir, I'll really reimburse you if I get a salary at that hotel. Or maybe I'll be fired. But I promise to pay the hospital fees," the girl said solemnly.

  I took a slow breath. I had a brilliant idea now. Maybe this girl really needs a lot of money, considering the conversation she had with her ex-boyfriend at the hotel earlier.

  "This is my business card. I hope you want to work at my place," I said firmly.

  The girl accepted my business card with a surprised look on her face.

  "I'll be going, see you soon," I said as I quickly walked away.

  Hopefully, she would meet me at the office tomorrow morning. Because I really need that girl.
