Cleo followed behind her.
"Good and also helpful?" Cleo repeated oddly.
What do you an, that person is a generous person? People, who like to do various charity activities in nursing hos or other social services?
"Yes. I accidentally t him for the first ti, when my car broke down on the side of the road about two months ago. "
Christina gave a little explanation. And Cleo listened to it.
"At that ti, he happened to be passing by and helped without expecting anything in return. If he's not a lighthearted person. So what?" Christina asked for support.
Cleo then understood the situation a little.
"Ah! So, your friend is a man. And you beca interested in him since that day on?" Cleo asked a little teasingly. She quickly grasped the situation of her cousin-in-law with her new friend.
Christina blushed when she heard Cleo's words.
"Is that so visible?" She asked a little afraid and also worried while looking straight at Cleo.
Cleo gave the logical answer.
"Not really. I'm just trying to guess it! " Cleo said, deliberately predicting that Christina seed to be the type of woman who was shy enough to express her feelings to others. So that she did not want her feelings to be easily read. Especially by the person, she concerned.
"So, is that true? Are you a little attracted to him?" Cleo provoked.
Christina nodded slightly, "Yes. A little." The answer was honest.
Cleo smiled amused at Christina's shy attitude.
Although Christina was quite outspoken about her relationship with Harry during their eting at her house the other day. But Christina seed innocent enough for her own love life.
And even though Cleo was quite grateful because Christina would like to tell her a lot about personal things. But Christina's mindless attitude made Cleo felt quite embarrassed to not hesitate whether she deserved this treatnt or not.
After all, they weren't actually cousins-in-law, right?
Cleo was only paid and contracted to work for Harry. So it was automatic, all good deeds and obedience to the entire Harry's family so far had been sole because of a necessity that she had to do to fulfill an agreent letter.
So with that, should Cleo get so many open attitudes from all of Harry's family without her asking and trying?
Cleo who was quite a dilemma in facing this situation tried to keep ignoring her conscience which kept screaming loudly. And chose to do whatever she thought was best.
While glancing at Christina, who had managed to control her feelings better, Cleo repeated her next question.
"But, how do you know quickly when his birthday is?" Cleo asked.
Christina chuckled with amusent and pride.
"Of course it's easy! I overlooked his birth date by chance when he gave his ID as a guarantee that my car wouldn't be forcibly towed that day. And after I know where he works and asks so people who already know him. I can get that information quickly and easily, " Christina said proudly while smiling at Cleo.
Cleo looked at Christina in disbelief.
This was one of the reasons why Cleo called Christina's personality quite unique.
So it turned out, Christina was also the type of woman who was responsive and also very active in love affairs? So even though she was a woman, Christina never limits her actions based on gender as long as she thought it was right.
Cleo was able to give applause to her. But when a thought crossed her mind. Cleo asked again.
"Then what kind of gift do you want to give him?" Cleo asked, trying to narrow their choice to choose.
Christina seed to weigh.
"Um ... I don't know. I'm still confused by the choice. But it looks like clothes or shoes will suit him, " Christina said, giving two choices that she had been thinking about for a long ti.
Cleo nodded. Then look at her.
"Do you know his shoe size?" Cleo asked to try the second option. The average man preferred to be rewarded with shoes by his partner. Besides looking more luxurious, it was also very useful for those traveling anywhere.
Christina, who was asked the puzzling question, shrugged her shoulders sadly.
"Do I need to find out about that first?" Christina said disappointedly because she felt that she had done sothing wrong.
Cleo who saw it imdiately tried to calm her down.
"Calm down. We can change your choice to other options. I've heard, after all, giving soone a shoe will make him stay away from you. Although it is also possible that you can overco the superstition by asking him to spend whatever small money he has to compensate. But still, sotis there are people who still believe and avoid it. " Cleo said.
And Christina listened carefully to all the information she had just learned.
So far, no one had ever said that giving soone a pair of shoes would an anything less than good. But because they still had many other alternatives to give a gift. Christina was faithfully waiting for Cleo to provide another good alternative for her.
Cleo seed to be considering it.
"Is there any special clothes you want to give him?" Cleo asked, trying to narrow their choice again.
However, a gift will best convey the feelings of the gift giver. So with that, it would be better if the gift chosen ca directly from Christina's own thoughts as the real giver.
And Cleo just has to encourage her and help her find that option.
"Actually I really wanted to give him a jacket. Because I saw that the jacket he had been wearing all this ti was quite worn and faded. If I want him to replace it with a new one, do you think he will feel good?" Christina asked, trying to find out and asking doubtfully.
Cleo put on a smile with confidence.
"Then I will make you find the answer. Co on! We exit this accessories shop and move to the n's clothing store which is across. I'm sure there are many different styles of jackets. That way we just have to choose one and wrap it up," Cleo asked, who was getting excited again.
They ca out of their previous shop and headed to the new shop while observing so of the clothes in the window.
"See! I think this model is ok. How about just this one? Cleo pointed to a black leather jacket and offered it to Christina.
Christina watched and assessed it.
"Yes. That's pretty good. But, if the man works a lot outside, he will overheat quickly because the colors absorb sunlight easily. " Christina's explanation imdiately made Cleo look at her.
Now she was starting to worry that the guy might overheat? Besides, which guy didn't like having a black jacket? The color was very populist and ingrained for all n?
Did Christina disagree with her?
Cleo started to look for other alternatives that might be made Christina satisfied with her choice. If black was an obstacle in choosing the clothes that the woman will provide. Cleo felt that the jacket she chose this ti will get better support from her.
Cleo drew two different colored jacket choices by having almost the sa model.
"I don't think it's bad," Cleo exclaid as she lifted the two jackets in her hands higher so that Christina could see more clearly.
Christina, who was on the other side of Cleo, walked over to her. Observing the two jackets that Cleo chose and smiling happily at the two choices that she thought were not bad.
"I'm not wrong to invite you, Sis! Both are good. But which do you think is the best? " Christina asked, taking a closer look at the two options that made her difficult to make a choice.
One was blue. And the other one was dark brown. Even though the materials and prices were the sa, the two models were enough to make Christina felt confused. Cleo lifted the clothes hanger that was on her right side.
"Maybe a brown color would suit him. Apart from being neutral, brown is also durable and doesn't get dirty quickly even though it hasn't been washed for months," Cleo exclaid while chuckling with her own answer.
This was indeed a kind of habit and her way of thinking since long ago. Outerwear, she usually used darker colors because the dust that was scattered everywhere was getting thicker and easy to stick, and difficult to clean.
So that if she used colors that will better cover or disguise dirt or dust, anyone will not know if the clothes were not cleaned imdiately.
Especially if the user was male. They will definitely prefer darker colors. That was what Cleo always knew as long as she observed her male custors when they shop at a clothing store that Cleo has ever looked after.
Christina agreed with Cleo's choice.
"Good. Then I'll take it. It so happened that the jacket was almost the sa color as the jacket he had been wearing. Because of that, I'm sure that man will imdiately like it," Christina said, giving her approval as well as additional reasons.
