Chapter 45 - 45. Second Day Of Work
She never stopped thanking from the bottom of her heart. She never thought she would get help from someone she didn\'t know.
Only a few minutes later, Anna had managed to find a taxi that would take her home.
With the car window wide open, Anna leaned back casually. The night breeze that blew brought a refreshing sensation and managed to relax her a little.
"Where are you going, Miss?"
Hearing the driver\'s voice, Anna immediately reached into her bag and took out a paper containing the address there.
"This is Sir."
"Okay, Miss," replied the middle-aged man receiving a small paper from Anna.
And after that, they were silent again, there was no sound at all, only the roar of passing vehicles broke the silence.
"Miss, we have arrived," said the driver, turning to Anna, who fell asleep.
"Miss, we have arrived," repeated the driver, patting the woman on the knee.
"Ah, yes sir. S-sorry." Anna suddenly woke up and immediately reached into her bag and handed over a hundred thousand.
"Thank you, sir," said Anna again immediately opening the car door.
"Your money, Miss..."
"Just take it, sir," replied Anna waving and walking away.
"Thank you, Miss," shouted the driver but only got a wave from Anna, because the girl was too tired to even turn around.
Entering Nicho\'s home yard, Anna quickened her pace.
"Dave, I am coming," Anna shouted as she entered the house, looking for Dave\'s whereabouts on the first floor but couldn\'t find her son anywhere.
"Naila, where\'s Dave?" Anna asked when she saw the babysitter coming down the stairs.
"Dave is asleep, Miss," Naila replied.
"I told you to stop calling me that, just call me Anna."
"A-alright, Anna."
"Erm," Anna responded casually and walked to the second floor. Glancing at the watch wrapped around her wrist, she sighed tiredly. It turned out that it was Dave\'s bedtime now.
Her intention of wanting to accompany Dave to play before going to bed was now gone, finally, she just checked Dave briefly then took a shower, and then took a rest. Because tomorrow morning, she will leave for work a little earlier

Just like the usual days, the atmosphere this morning is very bright. Anna came earlier than yesterday. Not a single employee had yet appeared and entered her view. Through the back door, there were already several cleaners who were the same as her.
"Morning, Anna," suddenly an arm wrapped around her neck and managed to make her startle.
"Mino, you startled me," replied Anna trying to free the man\'s arm.
"How was yesterday? Ah sorry for leaving you here alone," said Mino.
"No problem, now let me go. I m having trouble breathing Mino," replied Anna, actually that was the only reason because she felt uncomfortable with several pairs of eyes watching the two of them.
"All right, all right. Have you had breakfast?" Mino asked as he lowered his arm.
Anna just nodded in agreement.
"How is your mother\'s condition?" The woman asked again.
"My mother? She\'s fine now. And can go out today. She\'s just tired, don\'t worry," Mino replied with a smile.
"That\'s good."
They then headed to the locker room to immediately change into the work uniforms that had been provided.
Passing Mrs. Lidya\'s room, the two of them stopped. It was unusual for the door to the room to be open, whether or not Mrs. Lidya was in the room, the door was always closed.
Mino was curious and decided to peek through the gap in the open door.
"Hey, what are you doing?" asked Anna in a half-whisper.
"Shhh… I\'m just curious," replied Mino, placing his index finger on the girl\'s lips.
"What do you see?"
Just as Anna finished her sentence, a woman\'s voice sounded again right behind them. "What are you doing here?"
Suddenly, both Mino and Anna both stood up straight and immediately turned her gaze. Met Mrs. Lidya who standing very close in front of them, Mino and Anna froze.
"Mrs. Lydia..."
"What are you guys doing at the door?" asked Mrs. Lidya.
"W-we just..." Mino\'s words hung when the ringing of the cellphone that seemed to belong to Mrs. Lidya sounded loud.
The woman was slightly away, seemed to be talking to someone. Just a few minutes and then again approached Mino and Anna.
"What are you waiting for?"
"S-sorry?"
"I want to pass, you guys are blocking my way," replied Mrs. Lidya.
"Eh, we\'re sorry, Mrs. Lidya," said Anna immediately shifting her body while pulling Mino.
"Ah yes, tell the others that there is no briefing today."
"Okay," replied Mino again.
"Then you guys start working," said Mrs. Lidya and then entered her room.
Seeing this, a sigh of relief sounded almost simultaneously escaped from their lips.

At this time it was already noon, Anna had just rested her body on a small bench again when she was surprised by the arrival of Mino who suddenly wrapped his arm around the woman\'s neck.
"I might die young if you keep doing this to me, Mino," protested Anna glaring at the man who was already sitting next to her.
"Put your arm down, I\'m hot," Anna added again.
Mino lowered his arm and then leaned back against the bench while laughing giddily. "Have you had lunch?" the man asked.
Anna shook her head.
"Want to go to the cafeteria with me?" Mino offered again.
"I am not hungry."
"Come on, I\'ll pay."
"No, Mino. You just go. I\'m not hungry at all," said Anna.
"Then I won\'t eat either."
"You\'ll get sick if you follow me."
"Then accompany me. I don\'t like to eat alone," the man replied pitifully.
Anna sighed harshly, "Hmm, fine. But I won\'t eat."
Mino who heard the woman\'s words immediately stood up and pulled Anna\'s hand towards the cafeteria, he didn\'t care about the gazes of the people who turned to him.
While Anna, the woman could only surrender. No one knows since when she and Mino became this close.
Walking towards the canteen which is devoted to cleaning workers, from where Anna is, she can see the entire contents of the canteen without the slightest barrier, maybe because the room is only limited by very clear glass, there wasn\'t very spacious, but it was more than enough to accommodate the cleaning workers at lunch.
"Let\'s hurry," Mino said again, speeding up his pace.
"The food in the canteen won\'t run out even if you come two hours late," suddenly a deep male voice sounded, and it managed to stop Mino and Anna.
Turning to the source of the voice, the two of them froze on the spot.
"Who are you?" Mino asked with furrowed brows when a tall and very handsome man entered his view, this was the first time he had seen the man while working here.
But unlike Anna, what she felt was very different from Mino.. She knew very well who the man who was currently staring at her intensely.
