Virgo approach

What is your real goal Virgo, why are you doing this to me? What do you want?"

After holding back for almost thirty minutes, Crystal finally issued several questions that filled her head, being treated so special by a man she had only met twice made Crystal very uncomfortable. Crystal still has 'Trust issues' with new people.

"My goal?"

"Yes your goal, what is your purpose in treating me like this?" Crystal asked again

"I don't have any bad intentions or plans for you, is it wrong if I care about you who are hurting like this? Is there a reason for someone to do good?" Virgo asked back emphatically, Virgo who is a professor is not an equal opponent for Crystal in arguing.

Crystal's cheeks blushed. "No, of course there is no reason. It's just that it feels weird."

"Weird, what's so strange?"

"We just met and you've done so much for me like this. It feels weird if you don't have a specific purpose and intention for me," Crystal answered bravely even though Crystal was actually very embarrassed to say that to a man. Crystal would really be labeled as a person who is overconfident at this time.

But what Crystal is afraid of actually the opposite happened, instead of being angry or offended by the accusation he had just given Virgo actually laughed. The bespectacled man smiled broadly without anger and emotion.

"I will show you something, but before that, fasten your seat belt first," said Virgo softly.

"Huh?"

"I'll give you answers to the questions that are currently filling your head," Virgo said back without removing the smile on her face, Virgo was really very gentle. The way she spoke was 180 degrees different from Reagan who was happy one word loudly and Crystal can't face someone like Virgo, she's not used to it and she's scared

Because she can't with Virgo staring at her gently, Crystal decided to put her seat belt on quickly. And it feels like it's not only Crystal who will be embarrassed, other women will also be as uneasy as Crystal if stared at so intensely like that by a Virgo who has good looks above the average normal man in general.

Virgo's smile widened when he saw Crystal's adorable behavior, Virgo vowed to include today as the most beautiful day of her life.

After making sure Crystal had fastened her seat belt correctly, Virgo then stepped on the gas in her car and sped away towards the streets of London, which were already filled with people who were about to start their activities again.

Along the way Crystal locked her lips tightly, various uncomfortable feelings that mixed in her chest at this time made Crystal choose silence. There was a great sense of guilt that was tickling her from within after speaking so rudely to Virgo, a kind-hearted man who already cared about her. After driving for nearly fifteen minutes, Virgo then stopped the car in front of a three-story building that had a large yard which turned out to be a Preschool and Daycare specifically for working women or single mothers who had to leave their children at school with trusted people. .

"You see the women who are lined up neatly in front of the gate," said Virgo slowly.

"Yes."

"They are volunteer teachers who serve in this place, they are women victims of domestic violence, victims of kidnapping or something like that who have made it through difficult times before and now they decide to help others by looking after their children in this place. These women are not paid at all, they do all that purely because of their concern and compassion for their neighbors and their less fortunate children," Virgo said quietly.

Crystal frowned, she didn't understand where Virgo's conversation was going. Crystal didn't understand why Virgo took her to the daycare school and gave an explanation about the teachers there.

And before Crystal had time to ask what Virgo meant, Virgo suddenly continued their journey back through the traffic jams that were starting to make anyone feel uncomfortable.

Virgo's second stop is a nursing home, just like before Virgo also explained the state of the orphanage so that the workers, on average, are dominated by people who have a high social spirit. And as if she wasn't satisfied, Virgo brought Crystal back to a waste processing site taken from the Thames river, which is the second longest river in Great Britain after the Severn river, at that place Virgo spoke again with almost the same sentence as before to Crystal. Virgo chose a very smart way to answer all the questions Crystal previously threw at her.

"Stop, don't go again." Crystal stopped Virgo from wanting to continue their journey.

Virgo thinned her lips. "Why?"

"I'm guilty, I'm sorry," Crystal said softly.

"Guilty, why can you be guilty?"

Crystal slowly lifted her face up, looking at Virgo who was smiling at her. Stop what you're doing Virgo! You're going to knock Crystal's heart out of her chest cavity.

"I'm guilty for accusing you of having bad intentions towards me, forgive me for being so naive," Crystal said carefully, Crystal chose a few appropriate words to say as a form of apology. Being taken to places that touched the heart before by Virgo made Crystal finally understand the answers that Virgo would give her even though Crystal actually still had some questions in her heart but she tried to bury those questions in her heart.

Virgo shook his head. "No, you don't need to apologize to me. Other people might also have the same prejudice as you, Crys." Virgo is very smart, he deliberately makes Crystal feel even more guilty. Because what happens to other people will definitely be the opposite of what Virgo says. The girls out there would immediately receive the help and attention given by a young man as handsome as Virgo without thinking twice, very different from Crystal who is so careful. Virgo had met many such women while she was in New York over the past ten years or so.

Crystal bit her lower lip hard, the words Virgo used to respond to her words made her even more uncomfortable.

"Now because we are both late for activities," Virgo said slowly while exhaling deeply. "You're late for lessons at school and I'm also late for work."

"Sorry…"

"No, you don't need to apologize to me anymore because this is purely a decision that comes from me and not on input from other people. It is I who should be apologizing to you for making you leave your valuable class, not just anyone can study at that personality school, right?"

"Virgo," Crystal breathed hoarsely. "Please don't make me feel even more guilty." Crystal's eyes that were already teary looked sadly at Virgo.

"I don't…"

"Now tell me what should I do to make up for my guilt to you?"
