I Hire You For One Night

"Cuddle job?" Arkyn's face calmed down again. "Isn't that dangerous for a woman like you?"

"Oh~? Don't you know, Young Master Arkyn? Many people don't get to choose the job they want," Arumi criticized sharply, then looked away in annoyance.

A moment of silence filled between them.

Arumi was so emotional that she was panting after finished expressing her feelings. What she said earlier shouldn't have come out, but she couldn't help herself. She also does not like it when someone offends her life.

"Arumi..." Arkyn called out after falling silent regretting his words. "I didn't mean to say that. Honestly, I'm very sensitive to people's differences in life. I'm sorry."

Arumi gets awkward. She admitted she was wrong too, "Me too. I'm sorry. You're right I don't know you very well, I just thought it was going to be a good joke. I didn't mean to hurt you."

"You don't need to apologize. It's my fault," Arkyn says softly.

"I was wrong Arkyn too," Arumi denied.

"You don't have to."

"But I want to...!"

Silence filled again between them before it was finally broken by Arumi's giggle, which Arkyn also followed.

"You really don't want to give in even to something like this. Right?" Arumi asked after laughing satisfied.

"I try not to, but it's hard because I've been taught manners since childhood," Arkyn says.

"Oh? Your parents must really care about your future," says Arumi in deep thought.

"Huh?" Arkyn himself was confused by Arumi's speculation, "you don't know my parents?"

"Of course I know. Your father is a businessman and your mother is a scientist. Even after giving birth to you, she stopped working," Arumi explained what she knew innocently.

"Oh? Oh..." Arkyn smiled widely at that. He always thought Arumi knew about his big family, but she didn't. He could see she was honest from the innocence of her eyes.

"What's with your face, Arkyn? Are you happy I explained how your successful parents are?" Arumi asked mockingly again. "Oh, how could I forget? You admire your parents so much."

"I do admire my mother," Arkyn admitted with a genuine smile. "but what makes me happy is not about my mother now."

"No?" Arumi wondered what made Arkyn happy. And why only mention his mother? Isn't he also close to his father?

"Let this be a secret for a moment," Arkyn gave an ambiguous answer.

"Eh? Why?" Arumi protested a little. "This concerns me. I have a right to know, Arkyn."

Arkyn didn't change his mind, sitting on his soft bed covered in white, "There's nothing interesting about my life. I'm more interested in your job."

"My job is also not interesting," Arumi also refused to talk about her job.

"You're not giving up, are you?"

"I have no reason to share my life with people who don't want to do the same thing with me," Arumi reasoned with a smirk.

"That's true."

"Duh. I'm always right."

Arkyn laughed again, "Arumi."

"Yes?"

"You don't sleep like when you're alone, do you?"

"Oh!" Arumi just remembered that she still wearing Arkyn's shirt and again she only wearing panties. "Of course. I have pride, Arkyn."

"You wear a nightgown when you're with your client?"

Arumi nodded, and again she got a mysterious smile from Arkyn, "Then give me a nightgown?"

"You know we provide nightgowns, don't you?" Arkyn asked back.

Is that so?

Arumi thought quickly and the first to appear was wearing Arkyn's shirt without exception, "I'll claim that then."

"With pleasure," Arkyn replied without protest.

*****

Arumi came out of the bathroom as soon as she finished wearing her hotel nightgown. She also didn't need to go to her room because all the facial cleansers were inside earlier. She was sure it was Arkyn's private property, not a hotel. She is grateful that she doesn't wear heavy makeup, so there aren't many cleaning steps.

'I didn't think he was using the same brand of cleanser as me! Does he have sensitive skin too?'

Arumi approached Arkyn who was already lying leaning on the head of the bed, "You have an interesting skin care~"

"That's not mine," Arkyn says still focused on his phone.

"No?"

"My Mom."

"Oh..." Arumi quickly saw that there was an anti-aging bottle. Although actually at the age of 27 already need an anti-aging cream too.

Arkyn closed his flip phone and tilted his head to look at Arumi.

Arumi who was looked at for a long time like that became shy, "Why? Are you shocked to see my natural face? Want to move back to sleep on the sofa?"

Arkyn blinked, bringing him to his senses, "No. You look like the woman my Mom met in Sweden."

Arumi's body instantly froze hearing the country Sweden was mentioned.

Her hometown.

"O-oh yeah?" Arumi says awkwardly.

"Just a glimpse, after all in this world we have twins," Arkyn says in awe.

"O-of course," Arumi still says awkwardly. She was grateful Arkyn didn't ask further about 'Sweden', "Hm~? You got your territory already, huh~?" she asked jokingly.

Arkyn responded with a serious nod, "I want to know how you work. I want to hire you."

Hire her?

"It's not that easy to hire me, Arkyn," says Arumi acting 'hard-to-get', "You have to order through my company's official website. Later they will choose it for you."

"I see, they randomly send workers to clients," Arkyn mumbled interestedly. "Anything specific I could get you for?"

Smart.

Can guess correctly.

"You can ask the workers you want, for example, you want beautiful, elegant, and sexy women. They will try to find workers who meet the criteria that you want."

"It's really a big risk," Arkyn sympathized. "what if the client is a criminal?"

"Before accepting a client, we also look at the client's criminal record first. And there is a protection program from cuddle job," says Arumi explaining without any enthusiasm at all.

Arkyn smiled sadly. He can see Arumi had an unpleasant experience while working there. He felt lucky once again, "I want to because I want to confirm my feelings once again."

Confirm once again?

"So, you .."

Arkyn nodded, "I decided too soon. That's why I reconsidered."

Arumi doesn't mind, this move makes Arkyn closer and can't be separated from her. The problem is, she can't take sleeping pills anymore.

Arkyn would have thought she was a strange woman if he knew about her habits.

But this is a golden opportunity.

What should she do?

"Arumi?"

"..."

"Arumi?"

"Yes?"

"You don't want to?" Arkyn guessed. "I don't mind, just you know." With rejection, their friendship ended.

"It's not like that...!" Arumi cut in before Arkyn changed his mind. "I want to. There's just something I think of."

"About?"

"It's not important," Arumi refused to talk about it. "How about you? Which position do you want? Front or back?"

"Front or back?"

"I hugged you, duh!" Arumi teased a little. "This position is determined by our client."

"Oh..." Arkyn mumbled still imagining a suitable position, but whether he wanted to imagine the front or the back the result was still the same. Uncomfortable!

"Or do you want me to lead~?" Arumi asked bravely.
