Around seven o'clock at night, Emyr who had finished praying maghrib and teaching, was currently trying to call Shanum who was in his room.

Arriving in front of Shanum's room door, Emyr's hand movements that wanted to knock on the door suddenly came to a halt, as he heard the voice of a person who was teaching.

Emyr was silent, as he was listening to Shanum's voice. Hearing that Shanum had finished teaching her, Emyr knocked on the door.

"Shanon! Shanum!"

Shanum, who had just finished teaching, looked directly at the door of his room. "Yes!"

Shanum immediately walked towards the door with the face he was still wearing and the little Qur'an he was still holding.

It wasn't a pretty appearance that made Emyr fascinated to see Shanum. Seeing Shanum still wearing a mukena, not forgetting his niqab he had just worn, as well as the Qur'an he embraced. Emyr's heart was warm and his eyes showed admiration for Shanum.

"What's Emyr looking for Shanum?"

Emyr's daydreams scatter when Shanum speaks. "Eh! It! Let's have dinner first."

Shanum just nodded to Emyr. "Shanum wants to let go of this mukena first, brother."

Replace the nodding Emyr. "Are you waiting in the dining room?"

When Emyr turned around wanting to step away, Shanum suddenly prevented him. "What's Shanum?"

"Emm! Shanum doesn't know where the dining room is. Brother Emyr's house makes Shanum dizzy." Shanum was timid when talking like this.

Emyr who heard laughed. He said Shanum was very funny and too honest.

"All right! Brother will wait here. Quickly let go of your face first."

Shanum nodded, he immediately let go of his face, lest Emyr wait for him too long.

About five minutes later, Shanum who had finished releasing his face, he immediately met Emyr who was still waiting for him in front of the room.

"Come on!"

"Engh! Have mom and dad not been home yet?" ask Shanum.

"Maybe in a minute. He said he was on his way home."

Shanum just nodded. The two of them continued walking towards the dining room of Emyr's house. Inside the dining room, Shanum was again stunned to see the room.

"Even the dining room is bigger than my house!"

Emyr smiled at Shanum's grunts. "Later this house will also be yours, Shanum."

"Well!"

"It's okay! Let's eat!" emyr.

"The food is a lot. Oh, my God, thank God."

Emyr was a little surprised to see Shanum like he wanted to cry. "Eh! Why are you crying Shanum?"

"The first new shanum this time can see as much food and as good as this Brother, without bothering first. All this time Shanum's been eating fast, and if he doesn't work Shanum can't eat."

The test!

Unknowingly her tears dripped down the niqab. Emyr who saw his heart was so sick.

Shanum looks like a daydream. "Even before Shanum married and only lived with grandmothers. For one week Shanum and grandma only eat boiled cassava which grandmother planted on the edge of the house. Because we don't have any money at all." Shanum immediately lowered his head to hide his sadness while wiping his tears.

Emyr's heart was filled and unexpected, if Shanum was so helpless against the real life that was in sight.

"At least, Shanum is still grateful for being able to eat rather than not at all" Shanum said.

Shanum who saw Emyr looking at him meaningfully, he instantly switched the conversation.

"Pardon Shanum even confided in Brother. Which sister wants to eat? Want Shanum to get it?"

"As far as you are Shanum. Whatever you're gonna get for brother. Brother will eat it."

Shanum just smiled. "Then, Brother eat this only. This is a good vegetable for Brother, so that Brother is always healthy. Because you have responsibility to all the workers in your company."

"This is also the meat. So that nutrition in the body of the brother is balanced. Do not drink coffee, if there is green tea or juice. Because it is good to neutralize the content of meat in the body."

"At least water is better and healthier than coffee."

Emyr was silent. He felt that it was not wrong to have fallen in love with a woman.

The coffee next to his plate is planned he will drink later after eating. Because he will be overtime tonight doing all his work that is piling up.

But he heard Shanum's words. Without even denying the slightest, Emyr complied with what Shanum said.

Shanum's. Even though she's a widow. Emyr believes that Shanum is the answer to the prayers he has been saying all along.

"Did you like to eat fruits?"

With an enchanted expression, Emyr immediately nodded his head.

"Good! It is also good for health. Get used to eating fruit first before eating rice. At least twenty or thirty minutes before."

"Yes!" answer Emyr.

"Yuk ate, brother. Pardon me! Daritadi Shanum talks a lot."

"Snake!"

"Well!"

"Sister likes to hear you speak daritadi. And Brother feels like he's being watched by a wife."

Shanum immediately lowered his head. He was ashamed to hear Emyr's words. But not him, if he feels happy to hear it.

The two of them ate together while chatting casually. But more dominant Emyr who asked, while Shanum who answered.

Emyr that is usually not greedy if eating. After hearing the story from Shanum. He immediately felt grateful. And Emyr ate voraciously and was also exhausted.

There were two people who had been watching the two of them. Who else would it be if it wasn't Mulan's mom and Hisham's dad.

Mama Mulan and Papa Hisham have actually been home since. It was just that when they were about to catch up to Emyr and Shanum at the dining table, instead saw the sweet scene between Shanum and Emyr.

"Look Pa! Emyr doesn't seem to have picked the wrong wife."

Papa Hisham nodded his head. "May Shanum really be a good woman."

"Of course it's good Pa! Mama knows very well who Yasmin is" replied Mulan.

"Come Pa!"

"Where?" ask papa Hisham.

"We'd better eat outside. Let them enjoy their time together. We don't bother him."

Mama Mulan pulls the husband's hand to get out of there before Emyr is found out.

After enjoying dinner, Emyr said goodbye to Shanum to enter his room. Because he wants to immediately pray Isya' and then do all his work.

"If you want to watch television, sorry! My sister cannot accompany me. Because Sister's job is so much tonight."

Shanum smiled behind his niqab. "Yes! Don't sleep at night, brother. Take care of your health first."

Emyr smile. "Thank you!"

Shanum just nodded. After that, Emyr went upstairs to go inside his room.

When he reached the top floor, Emyr accidentally passed his house assistant who was going downstairs.

"Bi! Did mom and dad not come back?"

"Mr and madam have been home since Mr. Emyr. They just chose to go again."

Emyr just nodded. While the housekeeper immediately say goodbye to Emyr.
