Lala passed someone she knew in the kitchen.
"Mailer ...!" lala exclaimed as Meilani was about to enter the kitchen.
see Meilani is focusing on frying tempeh and tofu for dinner.
"Lala, are you here?" meilani asked in surprise as Lala caught up with her. Meilani dyed looking behind Lala. "Who were you, La?" tanyakanya.
"Self," Lala replied briefly. "Where are you from?" lala asked as she was curious to see Meilani outside the kitchen instead of inside the kitchen.
"From the toilet, let's go inside. I was frying tofu and tempeh!" meilani said as she walked into the kitchen.
"Thank you, Ken. Go back to where you came from!" meilani said to his friend named Niken, who had replaced Meilani's duties while going to the toilet.
"Yes, you're welcome, Lan!" said Niken as he stepped back to his original task of cutting vegetables.
"Where would it be if I were here, La? Which violet?" meilani asks when she realizes Najwa is not coming.
"Najwa said that. She has a stomachache .. menstrual cramps she said. Just curled up in the room, I told him to rest first," said Lala while watching the situation around.
In the kitchen there are about ten people who pursue their respective duties. Some are cutting vegetables, kneading seasonings, making dough, making drinks and frying side dishes. Seen a middle-aged woman who stood while controlling some of the stoves lined up before her. Sometimes stir the vegetables, swing the spatula, and taste the cooking. He is probably the chef in this kitchen.
"La, you want to help too, right? You are here to fry the tempeh, let me fry the year," Meilani said as he pointed at the frying pan in front of him that had contained pieces of tempeh swimming in hot oil on the stove. Meilani was handling both pans at once.
"OK, Lan," Lala said as she grabbed the spatula, then grazed the golden-yellow tempeh.
A veiled woman entered the kitchen and passed behind Lala, then she approached Salamah.
"Mom, this is given the same money of two hundred thousand Ustadz Fadhil. He said in exchange for the glass that was broken. Isn't this an exaggeration if it's just to replace one broken glass?" reyna asked Salamah.
Lala who felt like she was no stranger to the voice, then turned to the source of the voice and joined in stealing to hear the words of the veiled woman who was on her back.
"Alhamdulillah, let's just say he is almsgiving for our kitchen. Tomorrow we buy a few glasses with the money as mandated. And, that's a sign he's a good and responsible man. Hopefully the recovery will be easy" Salamah said with a smile.
"Aamiin, if you think it's true too, Mom. If I ever meet again, I'll thank him" Reyna said, after walking closer to Lala and Meilani.
"Lan, I can't ask you to know and just stick a piece, huh? Looks good to eat while it's still warm?" reyna told Meilani when tempted by tempeh and tofu that has been fried.
"Yes, make pregnant what the hell is not, Ma'am. Musti followed this so that debaynya not ileran later. Hehehehe ...," Meilani said jokingly.
"Yeyy, that's a myth, Naudzubillah!" said Reyna while rubbing gently into her stomach that has begun to bulge.
While Lala continued to observe Reyna through the look of her eyes.
Yes, God's voice is why it's so similar to Reyna's mother. Is it just my feeling to miss Reyna so much? Especially this woman is veiled and pregnant. It's impossible if it's Reyna, right? If this woman who had collided with Mas Abi this morning, she must have recognized Mas Abi if she was Reyna right! It must have just been like the sound! lala muttered without taking her eyes off Reyna.
Feeling that someone was watching, Reyna turned her head towards Lala. "Sorry, this Ukhti is the new santri?" ask Reyna to Lala.
However, Lala was still dumbfounded by her daydreams about Reyna.
Seeing Lala not immediately reply Meilani jerked Lala's shoulder. "Hey, La!" meilani exclaims while nudging Lala's arm.
"Talked too, La ... even bengong anyway!" tegur Meilani then looked at Lala's wok. "Oh my goodness, La! The temple's almost charred!" exclaim Meilani while pointing towards Lala's skillet with a spatula carried.
"Astaghfirullah's.... "
As fast as lightning Lala attacked the tanned tempe, which was in front of him.
"Think what the hell, La. It's one, two, three, four, five, six tempeh it's almost charred, right!" said Meilani calculate the almost charred tempe.
"Sorry..sorry, Lan!" lala felt guilty for not focusing on her job.
"Five times a thousand, six thousand. Ummi lost six thousand of these on our trade, Um!" niken joined nimbrung.
However, it made Lala even more moody. Because some of the other students were seen whispering in the back. Lala felt embarrassed and upset, the first day helped cook the impression was bad, because it made a mistake.
"That's it, it's okay, son. Continue frying it and focus on your task, yes! " said soft Salamah ma'am.
"Yes, Ummi. Once again Lala apologizes, Ummi!" lala said with sadness.
Reyna noticed Lala's changed countenance as if she understood that Lala was offended by their jokes.
"Lala, don't be sad, yeah! Children are just joking, sometimes the jokes are a bit excessive, but actually they do not mean really with his words. Because you don't know them yet, you may misunderstand their words. Actually they have no meaning really," said Reyna trying to set the record straight, because other students are sometimes like that berkandanya, but because they are used to bully each other they do not consider it real.
"Oh, you thought it was real, huh, La? Sorry, La. Really what my mother said, we were just kidding not to reproach you. Sometimes I also like to burn while frying, because joking is also the same Niken and others, what else if there is a sigh, worse. But, actually, we don't really mean it. Don't take it for heart, La!" Meilani.
Lala smiled in relief hearing that while nodding. They return to their respective duties and occasionally joke again.
"Mom, Reyna went to dr. Arif make the controls first, huh?" reyna said to Salamah.
"Who are you going with?" ask Salamah without taking your eyes off.
"On your own, Mom. It's just a deck too, right! Later I pinjem motorbike Pak Tatang only," said Reyna while spending the last mouthful of tempe in his hand.
"Yes, already. Careful yeah!"
"Yes, Mom. Assalamu'alaikum" Reyna said as she finished washing her hands.
"Wa'alaikumussalam," answered everyone in the room.
"Mom, Salamah turned to look at Reyna's departure for a moment and disappeared from sight.
After Reyna's departure Lala asked Meilani while whispering, "Lan, whose name was it?" ask Lala to Meilani.
"Oh, that was Reyna's name, that's a nice guy, she's four months pregnant, she's good at sewing clothes, Lhoh. You if you want to make the same robe mbak, Reyna only. The model is great, Ihoh!" meilani enthusiastically.
Lala was surprised by that.
Name Reyna?! Why can it happen that way .. name and voice can be very similar! But, if it's Reyna she should recognize me and Abiyu mas, right? Reyna is four months pregnant! I'm curious to see Reyna's face here. I'll look for a chance to see Reyna's face here! O God, may You protect Reyna, wherever she is! lala murmured in the heart.
