BLIND DATE
Chapters. 52


Ara always took the time to make something when she wanted to go to Mr. Haga's house. It is customary in the village if you come to visit it is mandatory to bring souvenirs even if not how much.


"What else is it now Ara? Didn't I have breakfast?" tristan asked to see that Ara was still busy in the kitchen when breakfast was over.


"By-by to Mr. Haga," said Ara looked up at a glance, then focused again on the dough.


"Don't care too much about the visit to grandfather's house. You don't have to do much for this fake relationship." Ara stop.


"I know that all these fake relationships are not important to me, but I can't allow myself to be bad in front of my grandfather. I've got to be myself even if I'm not your real lover." Tristan was silent hearing that. "Father don't have to worry I'm asking for extra wages for what I'm doing now. I'm really sincere."


"Not that. I just want you not to do that exhausting job."


"Maybe making this cake looks tiring for those who don't like it, but for me. It's like playing, sir. Especially my mood is good."


"This makes you happy?" ask Tristan. Ara nodded confidently with a sumringah face.


"All right then. Forward. Then get ready."


"Good, sir."


"I just don't want you to be tired" Tristan murmured as he stepped into the room.


***


After Ara's on Tristan's way to Haga's host, the man says there's a need outside. It was a little thrilling as it was the first time he had been in the house of master Haga alone. The butler escorted Ara to the garden. Grandpa is harvesting potatoes.


"Tristan there's a need, Cake."


"Always there is a need. He can be busy working because we need work, but he never makes time for family. Grandpa doesn't like that." Mr. Haga nagging. Ara just nodded. "Please advise him. Because you were the first girl he asked me to meet. Grandpa is sure Tristan will listen to your words. Right so?" asked Grandpa asking for the butler's opinion. He nodded in agreement.


Very proud, but dear ..this is just a fake.


"Whatis that? You brought Grandpa's favorite bread again?" asked grandpa to see Ara's greeting package.


"Ah, yes." Ara thrust a neat package at Mr. Haga.


"We should have eaten this bread before just continue the harvest of potatoes. You can harvest potatoes, Ara?" asked the grandfather as he walked towards the shade tree where they had eaten yesterday. Harvest potatoes? Ara felt a sense of anxiety. He did not not know how to harvest potatoes, but ... Mr Haga asked him to harvest potatoes in a moment?


"Yes. I can harvest potatoes."


"You?" asked Mr. Haga in surprise. Ara nodded. It seems that master Haga intends to prank his granddaughter's lover, but unexpectedly this girl actually accepts the challenge.


Ara grimaced in the heart. It seems this is what makes Tristan rarely bring girls to his grandfather's house. It could be that Tristan just reasoned not to have a lover in order to protect his lover from rodent work like harvesting this potato. But he deliberately introduced and allowed himself to come to grandfather's house, because he did not care for himself in forced work.


With the scorching sun, Ara dug potatoes with Haga and some of her employees after eating her homemade bread. Maybe Grandpa's persistence on a job is declining on Tristan. They are diligent and diligent.


"Drink if you're thirsty, son! The sun will dehydrate you!" shouted Mr. Haga while laughing. Without being told, Ara continued to drink from a bottle that had been prepared by the butler. He knows well about gardening because he is a village person who used to love helping families. He even helped his neighbors to make money.
