"Excuse me. I hope this is our last meeting"
The diamond turned his bike, he was fed up with the spicy words that came out of the mouth of the arrogant man.
"Wait.." cried someone. That was definitely not the arrogant man, it was the voice of a woman. Diamond had to stay in place and not ride his bike.

"So this beautiful mother is her proud mother named the Star. It's a pity that a mother as good as this has her martial child for mercy" said Berlian in his heart.
"Ma, we're not time. We have to start the meeting immediately" Bintang reminded his mother.
"Diamond, aunt lives first" Mama Farida smiled as she passed away leaving Diamond.
"Yes, auntie" Diamond nodded and returned Mama Farida's smile. His smile instantly disappeared when the Star glanced at him.
"Godk...." The diamond sticking out its tongue scoffed at the Star. The star involuntarily smiled faintly in response to Diamond's sneer and Mama Farida caught clearly her son's smile.
"The right girl for you, son. Mama is sure of that" mama Farida muttered inwardly.
