Chapter 1
Giovanni Martinez Pov.
My brows were tightly knit as the woman holding grandpa's cane was now outside my car. He was bent over his hand while he was still carrying the glass of buko juice that he stole from me earlier, I sighed before crossing my arms. I shook my head while looking at him. "Why did you enter my car?" the woman in front of me didn't answer, she just looked at me and didn't really intend to speak.
I sighed again.
"Why did you steal my grandfather's staff? she was still speechless. she just stared at me again. "Don't you know how to speak? I breathed a sigh of relief, cupping the bottom of my chin as I shook my head staring at him.
Your a mute? are you dumb? Or do you not understand me?” he shook his head at my question, I don't know what he was shaking his head about because I had two questions. So, are you dumb?” he shook his head again, he wasn't dumb but he wasn't talking. What the hell is her problem?
"Give me back my grandfather's cane I extended my hand but he withdrew, he had no intention of giving it to me. ”That is my grandfather's thing, give it back to me first!” he shook his head, completely walking away from me.
I washed my face, because of my loud voice. Our maid, nanny glor, came out.
"Why are you shouting?" it stopped by my side, I didn't answer because I was now looking at the woman whose whole body was dirty, there was a lot of charcoal on her face and her hair was messy. I could hardly judge her if she was beautiful or not, her entire body was really covered in filth.
”Is he asking for help? Why don't you give him food inside?” he held the woman to keep her inside, she is my naya glor. He took care of me when mommy left, mommy wasn't here because she went with another man. I was shocked again and what he did came to my mind, all of women are not satisfied with one man. I don't have trust in every woman I meet, so. I don't take any of them seriously.
I don't trust them. They will only use you and take your money, they will only hurt your heart until it breaks you.
I don't trust all of them.
Because nanny glor is like my parent, I didn't do anything to let the girl in who seems like she hasn't bathed in months.
I didn't catch them in the living room so I went straight to the kitchen. I could hear the sounds of the plate before I entered the kitchen, I saw the woman sitting on the empty chair while looking around the entire kitchen.
I shook my head while grimacing, is he a street person? she doesn't seem to have any family or relatives. Maybe he doesn't have a place to live that's why he's so dirty.
Nanny put down the pasta that looked like she had cooked earlier, she turned back for a moment to get a fork but I was embarrassed because of the woman's sudden action.
Suddenly, he grabbed the pasta with an unused fork, he took a bite of it with his hand and his whole palm was actually full of pasta.
"Sh*t ,yaya glor!" I called yaya glor loudly to make her turn to me.."What is she doing! Why does she eat like that! He scattered!”
"Josko hija!" he approached the dirty woman. "That's not the way to eat, are you too hungry? Use cutlery.." the woman just stared at her, I don't know if she understood what yaya glor said because she didn't react at all.
Actually, he looks like a Stupid
”Yaya glor, can we let him out? Maybe that's a bad person.." nanny frowned at me.
”What are you saying you are young! Your grandfather helps a homeless woman like him, why don't you imitate him?”
My nose arched. "He stole grandpa's cane, the one he was holding!"
Nanny glor looked at the girl again, she still remained speechless. Maybe I was right that he was dumb, he stole grandpa's cane because he thought he could use it. Tsk, he thought I wouldn't catch him? Does he think he's going to cheat on me?
"Is it true that you stole the cane you were holding?" the woman shook her head, I couldn't see her reaction if she was telling the truth or if she was lying. Because his hair is long, he just needs to be a sadako.
”If you didn't steal that? Why is it in your hand?” he bowed, he really had no intention of speaking or even defending his sari. But I only know one thing, he did steal this cane for profit.
I shook my head.
"I'm going to send him back to where he came from, maybe that girl is a bad person." nanny glor sighed.
"Where did you see him?"
"She's just sitting on the back of my car, I came from a gathering with grandfather. Then when I got home, he was already riding in my car.." nanny looked at him. The woman was really just looking at him from earlier, not really intending to speak.
"Where do you live, hija?" Nanny's question shook me.
"That woman is surely mute, I've been talking to her for a while but she doesn't even answer me.."
"Really? If that's the case, the boy is poor. Where will you return him?”
"On the street, where I saw him."
"What?" I gave the nanny a meaningful look because of her reaction.
”Don't tell me she's going to stay here? Nanny, we didn't even know her. We have helped several women like her, we let them in as a maid here but they just broke our trust, that should be a lesson to us. glor took a deep breath. He looked at the woman again before nodding.
There were previous women who we also helped, they are homeless women. Some of them are beggars, but they rob us. My grandfather is a president of charity group, except for being dean. It also helps some foundations, street children or anything else that doesn't have a place to live.
Some of our colleagues here were just picked up by grandfather, he gave them jobs and some of them he adopted. Our house is like an orphan foundation too, it's easy for grandpa to feel sorry for people like them. And because there were jusy only two grandsons, he wanted children. I can't give him now a grandchild. I don't want to get married yet, even though my friends have children. Still i won't, maybe the girl I will marry is just like mommy who went with another man.
F*ck those girls who cannot be satisfied with one man. so here I am too, one girl is not enough for me either, a woman for me is just a toy. A word womanizer is my hobby that relieves my boredom.
Just like my decision, I returned the beggar girl from where I got it. The trip took almost three hours, it was a little overcast on the way at three o'clock in the afternoon. He opened the door and signaled to get out, he got what I wanted to say so he got out of the car.
I stopped in a quiet park, right on the side of the road where we were facing the church. He looked around as if he saw the place where he came from. I sighed.
"Give me what you're holding." he hugged the cane while shaking his head. I was shocked because of what he did. "That's my grandfather's! He's looking for that cane and he can't sleep until it's next to him! So, just handed me back that dvmn thing!”
He shook his head a few times, I closed my eyes. That's just a stick giovanni, why don't you just leave it to a dirty woman like her! For sure, grandpa can buy a new walking stick.
"Fine! That's yours!" he bowed, even though I'm a bit harsh now he doesn't even speak. It's not like the others who will hurt you, but him? Dvmn. Why do i need to have a care? I should just leave her here and go home. What else? I'm building here!
"Take shelter there in the church, go back to what you were doing!" he really has no intention of talking to me, well. I'm done on her, she ruined my day. ”It looks like it's going to rain, if you want to get wet, go ahead!” I got in the car, I started the engine while seeing big drops on the windshield. I opened the wiper and immediately left, I turned to the side mirror. The woman was still there even though the heavy rain was falling and allowed herself to get wet.
"Tsk, let that girl go! I think it's crazy!" I turned the steering wheel to the highway, along with the loud thunder was the heavy rain. "Fvck, why am I thinking about him! I'm not a cargo of conscience!"
I bite my lower lip, as long as I'm away, I'm thinking about your girl. I close my eyes tightly, almost washing my face while returning the car I was riding in where I left it.
As I expected, he just stood there. I think he was waiting for me to come back or maybe he just wanted to take a bath because he seemed eager for the water. Dvmn giovanni! This is crazy things, I should be at the site taking care of the workers, but here I am and stop in front of the woman while opening the door.
”Hop in crazy woman!” he's looking at me again even though I'm already irritated by what he's doing. "Just get in before I f*cking change my mind!" he followed what I said, I don't know if he understood me or he was just scared by my shout.
But I don't have a f*cking care if she understands me, as of now. I myself am the one that I don't understand.
"I didn't send you back because I was going to help you, I just want you to return that cane to my grandfather yourself, is that clear!" he nodded, but he understood me. So, it's really just the beginning. He wants to return grandpa's cane himself, because he tortured me. Why didn't he just say it? D*mn. I almost forgot, she's mute.
At six o'clock in the evening when we got back to the mansion, the guard opened the door for us because it was still raining heavily. A staff member who saw me gave me an umbrella after I got out, but the woman I was with was still locked in the car and apparently had no intention of getting out.
I was gasping for air, my head was hurting because of him. I gasped before walking over to him to open it, he got out and took shelter under my umbrella.
”Shit, you are wet! Why are you sticking to me! I'm going to get dirty!” he didn't even react because he was looking up at the mansion, I cursed again before leaving him where we were. It's up to him to read, I'm sick of him!
”Oh giovanni, you are late..” naya glor greeted me, she took my umbrella and was about to ask when suddenly she saw the girl with me again. He smiled before looking at me.
"There is no malice, yaya glor, I just want my grandfather walking stick back! He doesn't want to give it to me!"
"I'm not saying anything, son." I closed my eyes and stroked my forehead.
”Can you take this girl on the bath nanny, I've been disgusted by her smell. My head hurts."
"Alright, change your clothes. Your grandfather called me and asked about you, they're going home. They just passed by."
”Where did grandfather go again? When do you get old, then you become a walker? Why can't he stay at home?"
Nanny laughed. "He just visited your uncle, he has a new girlfriend.." I gasped, because grandpa has three children. And the eldest is daddy Ericson who is abroad, the second is aunt jennifer who is not married yet because her boyfriend will change. She's in her 40's but had a child with her first boyfriend so she's a single mom, but she's beautiful. The youngest, uncle Marvin, is almost a year younger than aunt Jennifer. He is still unmarried so grandfather only has two grandchildren.
”I don't care if he had a new girlfriend, they will just break up again..” I shook my head as I continued to pass the nanny, and before I went up the stairs. I looked at them first. "Watch that girl, nanny. Maybe that will save us!"
"Giovanni!"
”Tsk, I really do hate my name. Just call me vanz, it's better for me..” I went up to the room, wondering why mommy named me this. Of course my mommy is the boss over daddy ericson before, he was followed before. But naming my name after her boyfriend, that's what I can't accept. That's why my friends often tease me because of my name, this name remains my mom's cheating. Because she went back to her ex boyfriend, giovanni, dvmn name!
After an hour, I came down from the living room to say hello to that girl. Shit? Hi, I'll just check. Yeah, I'm just going to check her if it's not spreading around the mansion, she's still acting like a monkey. She's wild, who is the girl who will suddenly grab the pasta?
Thank you
Maybe grandpa will scold me later because I brought home crazy. Fvck, why did I bring him back here? I should have just let him get wet in the rain! I pulled out my wet hair, because of that girl. I'm talking to myself!
When I entered the kitchen, nanny glor was still not there. So, I decided to check the maid's room. I saw only the five maids there who were already making the bed.
"Where is yaya glor?" I asked them.
"It's on the second floor, I think that's where the new housekeeper was accommodated." I raised my eyebrows, do they think the monkey girl is their new maid?
Tsk, she's never been hired here as a maid. I'll bring him back there tomorrow too! My head hurts from him.
I walked back to the living room, I saw a woman standing near the aquarium watching the fish swim. I took a deep breath before approaching him.
"Why are you here! Your fellow maids are getting ready! What else are you building there!" she looked at me as if nothing happened, I blinked a little because of the color of her eyes. I frowned, I stroked her body from head to toe and wondered if she was the girl who got into my car.
But, it's impossible..
"I've already dressed her.." Nanny Glor suddenly appeared at my side. I turned to her and quickly pointed to the woman who had now taken the cane that was on the floor earlier.
"is she the girl with me?"
"Yes, his dirt is bad. But the outcome is good, he looks like a human.."
I turned to look at her again, It's strange that she really changed now, her whole body is clean. Is he white? so, the monkey girl is beautiful?
Thank you
"Ah!" it pointed to the fish in the aquarium. I was surprised because suddenly he spoke. "Ah! Oh!” I frowned, is he really dumb? Why does she like this?
"What do you want?" It pointed to the fish causing the nanny to nod. "Are you hungry?" the woman nodded.
"I'll just prepare you some food." I shook my head, I sat on the long sofa while watching him. It follows the movement of the fish, and he just goes inside. But to my great surprise, it suddenly caught the fish there, I stood up while shouting nanny's name.
"Yaya glor shit!" The nanny came out almost in a hurry, even some of the maids were distracted so they are now in the living room. "The fish is in her hand!" Nanny approached the girl, as if she was wet again because of what she did. Yaya glor extended her hand to take his hand.
”You can't eat that yet, and it's not eaten.” he seemed to understand what nanny said, she did give him the fish but it looked dead because of the strong grip on it earlier.
I just cursed again.
"Feed that girl, nanny. I was stressed for a week with him..”
