Ken was shocked when he saw the notification from the system.
After all, she hadn't even told him about her past yet. 'Wait… She is already willing to give me all that she owns without telling me her story. I thought by telling me, that was when she would really open up to me completely. But It seems there was not need for that anymore. I have completed the mission.'
Although Ken had completed his first mission and received his reward, but Vivian was still going to tell him her story.
'Truth to be told, I don't think I really want to hear it anymore.' Ken thought. He had an expression of satisfaction.
Vivian was ready to tell him everything. She had already concluded in her mind that he was a good guy, and she could trust him.
However, before she could begin her story, the manager came out from his office, which he has been in throughout the whole evening.
"Hey! What are you guys doing there?!" He exclaimed, while walking towards them.
Ken stood up to tell the manager what had happened, however as she manager walked towards them, he noticed that Vivian was feeling down and so he asked her.
"What is wrong with you… Vivian?" He asked, then turned to Ken and asked him, "What happened to her?"
'Thank goodness the manager came out by this time. I thought I still had to hear what she had to say, even after I completed the mission.'
"U-Uhm… Yes sir. There was an incident earlier between Vivian and that customer." Ken responded.
"That customer?!" The manager yelled. "Yes sir. "Did he hurt her in any way?" The manager asked him as he sign for Vivian to stand one feet, which she did carefully.
"No sir… He didn't. I stopped him before he could do anything. However-" Before Ken could finish, Vivian used her left hand to drag his shirt, giving him a sign that he had said enough.
She had a depressed expression on her face, as she clenched her fist while holding his shirt.
It was as if she was trying not to let the manager know exactly what had happened to her.
Ken was shocked by her reaction. He thought that she was going to be lamenting about all that happened, but she was just silent while he explained everything.
And for her to stop him from going any further in his explanation, he knew she didn't want the manager to know the part in which she felt traumatized. Because that was what Ken going to say next.
'It looks like she doesn't want to bother him with her own problems. But why? Isn't she supposed to be tell him everything that happened. Why is she trying to hide that part from him? I guess I still need to hear about her past after all.'
"Well since you didn't get hurt, I think that is all that matters." The manager said as she stared at Vivian.
However, she wasn't able to look at him. She only stared on the ground as responded with a nod.
Ken saw this.
He noticed that the look on the manager's face was not an expression of pity or sort. And the way Vivian wasn't able to look him the eye, he was certain that there was something going between the two of them that he was not yet aware of.
"Well… you guess should go back to work" The Manager order. "It's almost midnight, and more customers will be coming in soon. If there is any problems with any customers again, do so to let me know before you do anything… Ken."
"Yes sir!" Ken responded vividly.
The manager went back into his office and the two of them also returned to the bar area.
They night went well without any other commotion from any customers. Whle Ken and Vivian worked smoothly together like they had already shared a bond.
_
The night passed, and Ken found himself on the road to his home by 7am in the morning. He first escorted Vivian to her home, which was just few floor below the club.
He didn't really follow her to her apartment, they just happened to be in the same elevator at the time they were leaving, and so she stopped at her floor before bidding him goodbye.
And after everything, he wasn't able to hear about her past again. Although he knew that was to come at a later time.
..
Ken was beat. He was so tired from work as he entered inside his home and crashed on his bed.
His family were still sleeping. Although they knew he worked late, so they always locked the door, knowing he had his own key, which he can use to enter the house without ever waking anyone from sleep.
Ken was flat on his bed as he stared straight at the ceiling. He thought about all that had happened last night.
He then remembered he had the system. "System!" He called out and it displayed its default information.
It opened his profile, and showed him he had completed a mission as well as the points he had received.
And at that moment, it came to Ken's mind. 'Come to think of it, I wonder what the required amount I need to reach, before I can convert the points into cash."
"Hey system, what is the requirement amount I need to reach before I can be able to withdraw" Ken asked curiously.
Immediately, the system displayed responded to his question as it displayed another message.
[Amount of points required for yoy to gain, before capable of withdrawal: 90,000 points.]
[Total Points You Acquired: 200,000 pt]
"What!… Two hundred thousand points?!* Ken exclaimed, before covering his mouth so as to not wake those that were sleeping. So he then reduced his voice.
"That is means, I am already qualified to withdraw along time ago." He proclaimed with a low tone, but sounded happily. "Which means I am able to withdraw-" Ken looked at his fingers as he calculated how much he was able to convert into cash.
"One hundred and ten thousand into cash! That's way more than I make in a year." Ken couldn't contain his excitement as he saw the system displayed another information.
[You has reached the required account to covert into money]
[Would you like to convert into your currency now?]
[Yes/No]
Ken stared at the screen. He took a quick gulp, rubbed both his hands together, and the poured his breath from hit mouth into his hands.
"Yes!" He replied.

Beep'
Ken looked at his phone as he saw the alert. "One hundred and ten dollars has been transferred into your account!" Ken exclaimed. "What?! This is for real." He jumped off his bed and celebrate his achievements.
He was overfilled with joy. Although you can't blame him, it was his first time possessing such amount in his life.
"Compose yourself Ken, compose yourself" He muttered to himself. "You have to remain calm. Know that from now on, this is how it is going to be, so you shouldn't be getting excited all the time."
Ken told himself all that with a composed expression. For someone who had just received such an amount like that, he sure was composed.
He then crashed on his bed once more, as he was filled with excitement. And after a few minutes he fell asleep.
