My jaw dropped a bit and my eyes widen.
“Are you sure, sir? This is the correct location according to this?” I show him my phone to make it sure.
“Yes, Miss, it's the exact location according to the address you show me,” he replied blankly.
I give the payment for the ride. I put my phone at the side of my head and started to dial the number of Yuan.
After a few seconds, he answered the call. “Hello? Why? Is there anything wrong? Where are you?” he asked.
“I'm at the front of your house, you said, Yunah didn't have anyone with her in the house? But I can see the maids,” I said calmly.
I heard his soft chuckles. “I just said it because I want you to come to my house,” he said with a soft voice.
My heart feels like it's jumping up and down.
“By the way, why are you there? Did I tell you that Yunah's tutor will go to our house?” he questioned.
From his voice, I can see his reaction, with an eyebrow raised a bit.
“Yes, and I'm her tutor.” The other line suddenly became quiet.
I'm still standing in front of their house. “Really?” He gasped while waiting for my clarification.
“Yes, Yunah Avanzado, that's her name, right?” I said. I heard his loud giggles.
“Yes! Hold on— wait a minute, I'm going to call the maids, so you can come inside the house.”
After a few minutes, a maid with a black uniform came out from the door.
“Hello! Are you Miss Astrid? My master called to be that someone is waiting outside, she is Yunah's tutor, her name was Astrid,” the maid stated.
I smiled at her and nodded my head. “I'm Astrid, and here is my contract for being a tutor.”
I show the email and the contract for teaching. She smiled at me and unlocked the gate. My sight wanders around the place.
The gate automatically opened when their car came, it was still close when the rental car was in front of the gate.
It means, they have a sensor that can detect their car. That's pretty nice.
We enter the front door, the large chandeliers were the first object that met my eyes. They are shining like they have some diamonds.
I saw the dining table when I first went here just to get my calling card.
The call ended. A beautiful smiling girl is about to run into my area.
When she finally reached me, she hug me tight and said with a cheerful voice, “Big sister! You are here! I'm glad that I see you again this time!”
She glanced at my face, her wide smile can captivate and attracts your attention.
“I'm surprised! I'm grateful that you are my teacher!” she stated. We separated when her nanny gently pulled him.
“Let's go to the study room? Please follow me, Miss Astrid,” the maid asked Yunah first before glancing at me.
I nodded. Yunah holds her hand and we begin to walk. According to the records, she stops from going to school because she was still being bullied, that's why they decided to put her in homeschooling.
I knew it. The first time I met her, some of the children are saying bad things about her.
After a few minutes of walking, we reached the study room. It's quite big enough for two people.
There's a large table, large bookshelves, different crayons, and different kinds of paper. I scratched my head, my supplies are just the standard, while their supplies are expensive.
It's like, I would choose not to use it just to prevent it from tearing or misplace. I scanned the whole place.
I couldn't find any family pictures or a copy of the picture of their parents. Maybe, they are not into taking photos.
“Big sister? Shall we start?” It feels like, I'm back to my body when I heard her angelic voice.
Her little eyeglass was shining when the lights of the room is passing on her lenses. I walked towards her and decided to sit beside her.
A genuine smile appears on my lips. “How are you? How's your school?” I asked.
She glanced at me for a few seconds, but she look away immediately. She remained silent while getting all the things she needs.
I checked my email to know what is the first lesson. We should start by introducing ourselves to each other, and give her a simple test about letters and numbers.
“Let's see where we are going to start, hmm—” I browse to my phone.
“Before we start, can you tell me your name, age, and siblings? Let's introduce ourselves! It's great to know each other!” I said with a joyful voice.
She looked at me, and after a few seconds, her cheeks turn into pink. She looked down and started to speak softly, “I'm shy.”
I couldn't stop myself from giggling. She's so cute! She removed her eyeglasses and wipe them to clean up the most.
“Come on, tell me about yourself! I would be glad if you tell me!” It feels like my eyes are going to be in a straight line because of the wide smile I'm giving to her.
“I'm Yunah Avanzado, five years old, and turning 6 this month, my big brothers are Yuan, and Yoru,” she stated.
“Wow! You are going to celebrate your birthday this month, advance happy birthday!” I greeted. Her eyes stare at me.
She gave me a wide and genuine smile. “Thank you! You are the first one to greet me,” she whispered.
“Alright, it's my turn! My name is Astrid, you can call me anything you want, however, I'm your tutor, I'm willing to guide or assist you when it comes to studying,” I explained.
“Really? Can I ask you about it?” I nodded as a sign of my answer to her question.
“Anytime? What if you are at the shop, and I suddenly sent you a message or call you, is that still okay?” she questioned.
“If I'm on break, then I will reply to you,” I answered. She shook her head and smile at me.
“Alright! We are done with our introduction, let's try if you are familiar with numbers and letters!” I raised my voice a bit because of excitement.
She gave me the paper. I use my pen and write the first five letters of the Alphabet.
She's just watching me while writing those letters, I added some numbers like one, eight, twenty-two, and thirty-one.
I show it to her. She became silent for a second while staring at the paper.
After a few minutes, she started to speak. My jaw dropped a bit, and I gasped when she said it correctly. I gave her applause.
“That's great! I bet you're an honor student at your school!” I stated with amusement.
She shrugged her shoulders. It seems this child was not the same as other children.
All of a sudden, someone knocked on the door.
“Please come in,” Yunah said while looking at me. It's the maid, she was holding a tray with food.
“I asked them to bring us some food, so our studying will not be going to be bland.” I raised my eyebrow at her because of confusion.
“Our young lady wants to eat while writing, reading, or anything else, she just wants some food beside her,” the maid stated while smiling at me.
The maid puts the tray on the table. “Thank you! You can go now, please don't disturb us,” she murmured.
I sighed and decided to focus on what I'm going to do with her. I should teach her what is the good thing to do, and what wonderful things to learn.
Not only that, I chose this profession, therefore, I need to do it properly.
She gently pats the side of the chair. I smile at her and decided to sit beside her. It's comfortable.
My vision scanned the whole room. They have a huge window, some plants, and flowers outside of it.
After a few moments, I wrote down all the things that she will be going to learn. I will promise to myself, after this session, she will be proud again to learn and nourish her mind with different knowledge.
“It seems you passed with familiarizing, now let's begin to the main topic!” I announced with a straight posture and proud face.
