29 Alvin
Rara busied herself to forget her problems. Taking care of boutiques, EOs and factories is not an easy thing, but he enjoys it.
“So you've been friends with Rivan since when?”
“From still a baby. That Tony and Karina have been in Junior High. While Tia from High School but not one school equals her.”
“Owh, means like me and Bryan.”
“You've been friends for a long time?”
“Same as you and Rivan.”
Rara nodded in understanding. They are in a restaurant for dinner. Lately they are often together, as a result of the establishment of the factory.
“You have no intention of opening a new business?”
“Oh, never before, Vin. Just three I've been kliyengan, how would you like to add!”
Alvin laughed crisply.
“You are great yes, still young but already have a lot of effort that is everywhere.”
“Not everything, Nay. Part of my dad, I just keep going. Part of me started it from zero.”
“Ya is still great, Vin! Which one of you has your own?”
“AZ Group all have me.”
Rara chokes on her own saliva.
This guy wants to go down or show off anyway, actually?
“AZ Group have your own? How about plus that from your dad, huh? I don't care how rich it is, you!”
“Yes don't have to be overshadowed, Nay!”
“Keep why AZ is called?”
“Alvin Zion, my name. I intentionally did not use the family name. Not many also know I'm the owner, I don't like being exposed!”
“Fear of being chased by a matre girl huh, afraid of being fooled too?”
Rara laughed, and so did Alvin.
“As I often say Nay, the business world is cruel. Friends, opponents, or even family, no one can truly be trusted. I've already experienced it.”
Alvin's gaze seemed to dim, like a person who again felt terribly disappointed in something.
“You have a brother?”
“I'm his only son.”
“Same as me yes, Vin.”
After eating and talking, they went home.
“Oya, three more days Lyan, Emma, Jasmine and Leo are going to Jakarta. You want to meet them?”
“Totally?” Alvin nodded.
Without feeling they have arrived in front of Rara's house. My mother greeted them with a smile.
“Drink tea first?” ask Mama to Alvin.
“Not bother, Auntie. I say goodbye first.”
“Call mama only, same as others.”
“Iya, Ma.” Alvin looked awkward but was happy.
“Oya, tomorrow morning if not busy you to home yes, Alvin.”
Mama also called Alvin by name alone, without frills sir, so as not to feel differentiated also with others despite the status of Alvin is a big businessman and former boss Rara.

Sunday, laze day. But not at Rara's. Riots will always occur in the house since the morning. Who else did it if not the troublemaker's friends.
The first thing happened in the kitchen. Make breakfast like someone who wants to eat.
The busyness of the parents of Rara's friends makes them more consider Rara's house like their own home. Their parents are more busy working, even on holidays. Especially for Rivan, whose parents live abroad.
Mama will be happy to cook the favorite food of the young.
The sound of the car stopped in front of Rara's house. Rara came out to see who was coming. Turns out Alvin actually came at his mother's invitation yesterday. He handed the cake and fruits to Rara.
Karina who saw Alvin immediately felt happy.
“Bryan didn't come?” ask Karina.
“Hmmm ...”
“All Bryan come, if not busy,” Rara told Alvin.
Alvin immediately contacted Bryan and told him to come.
Thirty minutes later Bryan arrived, he also brought food and drinks.
“Alvin and Bryan what are his favorite foods? Mom sometime makein.”
Alvin and Bryan looked at each other.
“Fish it's salty, Ma!”
“Rara.”
“Hahaha .. really, Ma. When in London they had breakfast with salted fish, sambel terasi, lalapan and crackers in my apartment.”
“Totally?” ask Karina. Alvin and Bryan nodded.
“Wah, bule local flavor.”
“Let's eat, the cuisine is done.”
On the dining table there is yellow rice, rendang, grilled chicken, lalapan, balado eggs, sambal, crackers, grilled fish.
Is the breakfast like this, especially lunch and dinner?
