"Arf!" Wirata heard Summer made a sound. She watched through the kitchen glass windows to see the tall figure carrying him to put on the dog toilet and then he turned his back to the puppy. Wirata carried two cups of coffee and walked to him.
"Don't stare at him. You'll make him embarrassed and he won't do it."
He said to her when he saw Wirata watching the puppy turning round and round to find his good position for nature's call. Wirata blinked, this man was forgetting that Summer was her dog!
"He's my baby." She reminded him. Handed him a cup of black coffee.
"Mine, too." He said bluntly. then lifted the cup to look and sniff it first. As he had a very bad experience with her terrible coffee not long ago. Wirata turned her face away and drank her coffee. He looked at her then sipped it and then he drank more when he knew it was only a normal cup of coffee!
"Ruff!"
The puppy made a noise Stefan hurried to hand Wirata his cup.
"Hold it for me." He said then went to Summer and looked. The puppy just had a pee, not a Number 2, Stefan nodded.
"Good boy. Now it's time to do some exercise with your daddy."
He said then walked to the toy basket near the wooden racks where the orchids and flowers baskets were hanging beautifully. He showed Summer a small tennis ball. Then he threw it softly to the far corner.
"Go get it." He ordered the little puppy. Summer seemed to like this game, his short and small legs ran off straight to chase the ball immediately. He got it in his mouth and ran back to Stefan.
"Good boy!" Stefan praised the little guy, took the ball out of his mouth and patted his small head. Then gave him a treat. Summer wiggled his tail rapidly in a happy gesture. He finished it very fast.
"Want more? Then you will have to earn it. The second round. Go!"
The smooth and relaxed voice ordered and the puppy ran as if he knew his cue. They repeated the activity between them. Wirata was amazed to see that within a span of a few days, her Summer had swapped side completely without hesitation. Looked at all the treats and toys he got from Stefan, full in the baskets!
"Would you like anything with your coffee?"
She asked since he didn't pay attention to her at all.
"Like what?"
Stefan turned to look at the woman in her pajamas with her underwear in her pocket. Her hair looked a mess but somehow, he thought she was sexy looking like this in the morning.
"Hm, like a piece of croissant, cake or cookies. "
Wirata answered. She usually liked a piece of croissant dipping in her morning coffee. She saw a jar of chocolate chip cookie in the cabinet. For cake or croissant, she thought she could find it from the hotel bakery shop or the restaurant because this was a seven-star hotel, they had got everything to please their wealthy customers.
"I am not a girl, don't like sweets."
He answered sarcastically and gave her a glance then turned his attention to the puppy again. Wirata shrugged.
Since he was no longer interested in her. Wirata finished her coffee and went back inside. She hurriedly took a shower, wore a bright yellow T-shirt with black cotton pants. She still had not unpacked her suitcases because she wasn't sure where to put her clothes and stuff.
When finished, she went outside the bedroom, didn't see anybody in the large living room so she went to the kitchen, made a cup of tea for herself. She was very hungry, her energy was drained because of last night's activity run by the lustful man. Wirata opened the cookies jar and put some on a small plate. She walked to the terrace garden again.
Wirata stopped at a white chair near the door, sat down, sipping tea, eating cookies and staring at the corner of the beautifully designed artificial waterfall.
The tall figure was watering the plant pots. For the orchid baskets hung on the wooden panel, he used a water cylinder that had a spray head attached to water the Queen of Flowers with gentle and care. Wirata stared with a surprised expression on her face, couldn't believe her eyes that he could do something out of his character like that.
"Arf!" Summer made a sound. He sat on his butt near Stefan and seemed to want the boss's attention. When Stefan looked at him, the puppy used his pink tongue to lick his mouth and lick the floor as if he was trying to say something.
"No. No more treat for now. If you want it, you have to run around the swimming pool first."
Stefan talked to him as if the puppy would understand every word he said.
"Ei! Ei!" Summer made a moaning sound, sitting and tilting his head to send Stefan puppy eyes.
"No, don't do that! Batting your eyes like a girl is not acceptable, understood? Be manly. Don't be eccentric. Do you understand? "
He made a serious voice to the puppy and shaking his head at the dog.
"Arf!"
Summer made a noise as if he understood. Then he just lied down on the spot and shut his mouth.
"Very good." The satisfied voice said to the puppy. He decided to give him a bone. The puppy wiggled his tail rapidly in a very happy gesture. Then his full attention was toward the bone only, not interested in anybody anymore.
"What time do you have your breakfast?"
Wirata asked, she still didn't know anything about his daily routines.
Stefan turned to look at the woman who was sitting on the chair near the door. He picked his coffee cup up, still hadn't finished it yet. The tall figure walked to her. He saw cookies in the plate, Stefan lifted his cup to drink, hiding his smirk behind the cup. So she liked sweet, he was always right about women.
"Nine o'clock in the morning, only light breakfast. You can talk to James and Ben about my schedule and stuff you need to know. They come up at about 7 a.m. on weekdays, but 9 a.m. on weekends." The boss explained.
"What about our agreement?"
Wirata asked to the main point. They needed to sort everything out and made it clear from the start. Stefan sipped his coffee and thinking for a moment. He looked at her while his calculated brain working.
"I will put an end to your stepfather's debt, it's zero. He'll owe me nothing."
"You will not seize his pub, right?" She asked to make sure in the details.
"Yeah. " Stefan glanced at her. She wasn't daft.
"What else?" Wirata asked another question, the same reason just wanted to make it clear. Seeing him sent her an annoyed gaze. He paused and looked into his cup, but he was thinking. After a moment, he turned his face to her.
"I will also give you five times more than your last salary. The salary you received from the office. Want something else?" He asked and smirked in a sarcastic gesture.
Wirata lifted her teacup to her mouth, didn't let him see that she was stunned with the words 'FIVE TIMES MORE THAN HER LAST SALARY'.
"My salary from the office, hm, will I get my last three months salary as well? It's the rule before you fired me." She managed to continue with a normal voice.
Stefan shook his head. She definitely had a calculating head. Very cunning!
