"If the same thing happens to both of us again, what will Om do?" asked Zulaikha to know.
"Do you want to live our domestic life long-distance?" Joseph asked back.
"No! I don't want to" replied Zulaikha.
"I also no longer want to live a domestic life away from the people I love and care for" Joseph replied.
"I can't stand to see Om's face, even if it's a day," Zulaikha said honestly.
"So is I. Not seeing yourself, knowing your circumstances. It always makes me restless and unsettled all day. All my work will be messed up" Yusuf said, looking at his future wife.
"Om, you make me happy. Being loved by you is the most beautiful gift of my life" Zulaikha said with eyes that radiated happiness.
"Yes, I did too. You are the best soul mate God has given me and Asiah. And I hope only death will separate us" Yusuf said with a gentle smile.
"Aamiinu. May it be the destiny God has given us" Zulaikha replied with a happy smile still on her face.

After a night of heart-to-heart talk, Zulaikha wanted to be the perfect wife for Joseph later. She also began to learn to make breakfast for future husbands and children.
Maharani and Clive ask Zulaikha not to do that. Breakfast will be served by their chef. However, this naughty girl insisted on cooking breakfast. So Joseph helped too.
"What are we doing?" yusuf asked when he saw Zulaikha removing the ingredients from the refrigerator.
"Seafood fried rice with lots of slices of tomatoes and cucumbers" replied Zulaikha. Joseph just smiled.
"I'll do it. Om only gave a briefing," Zulaikha continued, blinking his eyes.
Yusuf knew that it was a code to ask for help if something went wrong he had to continue. His future wife did not want the results of his cooking failed.
"Oma, is Mama Zulaikha going to make our breakfast today?" asiah asked as she extended her neck to look at the two adults who were in the kitchen.
"Yes, he said he wanted to make fried rice," replied Maharani with an amused smile. He was not sure if his son could cook. It would surely ruin his daughter's cooking.
"If Mama Zulaikha who cooks will definitely be long," said Asiah lethargic because he was already hungry.
"Why?" ask Clive while pulling Asiah to sit on his lap.
"Because Mama Zulaikha was always teasing Dad. It will be a long time for them to finish their cooking. Asiah was hungry, "Asiah replied with bulging cheeks.
Clive and Maharani laughed because it fit what was on their minds. If his daughter was the one who always teased the widower. Hence they did not forbid the love story of his son because it was a happy thing in Zulaikha's life.
"Are we just going to breakfast outside?" ask Clive who is hungry too.
"Yes, I am hungry too" replied the Maharani.
"Will Father and Mama Zulaikha not be sad? The fried rice we don't eat." Asiah stared at Clive and Maharani in turn.

As everyone had expected before. Zulaikha often makes plays. Eyes sore to tears when slicing red onion. Stabbed by the shrimp, sliced through the knife until Joseph panicked and clenched his index finger. Especially when testing the taste of the cuisine. Zulaikha and Joseph were bribes. They did not know that three hungry creatures were waiting for them to finish their cooking.
Special seafood fried rice made by Zulaikha finally finished more than an hour, or exactly 1 hour 44 minutes 35 seconds. Until the three men ate bread and milk first to prop up their stomachs.
"Mommy and Papi eat a lot, yeah!" ask Zulaikha.
It was not in vain that they waited so long. The fried rice tastes good. So, everything is finished not rest. Zulaikha cried tears of joy as everyone praised his cooking. Although actually adding a measure of spice is Joseph.

"Tomorrow we will return to Indonesia. Would you like to buy a gift for the family there?" zulaicha asked Joseph and Asiah.
"I've bought to share with friends later, yesterday at Disneyland and last night at the mall with the Twins" Asiah replied.
"If my family I don't think it's necessary. They were given a fun story and were happy. Although last night I had time to buy some clothes for the other brothers.
"But I want to buy souvenirs for my future in-laws" said Zulaikha.

Finally they went hunting for souvenirs for Yusuf's family in Indonesia. Unexpectedly they also met Alex's family. Cantika also helped Zulaikha shop for souvenirs.
While the fathers take care of the children. Only Asiah and Rain because the Twins are with William.
"So, you stopped working because Fathur was angry with you for refusing his sister! Good then" said Alex.
Yusuf frowned, he felt strange with this one conglomerate. He became unemployed and happy. Actually, there's been some calls to him. It's just that he hasn't been able to do a job interview.
"Grandfather Willi, come here quickly. Bring the Twins!" Alex called his brother.
***
It wasn't until 10 minutes that William had arrived. Asiah is happy because there are Rayyan and Raihan. The four boys played together.
"What's wrong?" william asked as he sat there.
"You're looking for someone to be CEO of a company in Indonesia, right?"
"Yes, I haven't found a suitable one yet. Why?" ask William.
"I think Joseph can take that position" Alex replied.
"Aren't you working at MAKMUR JAYA company?" ask William.
Joseph also told him what had happened to him. William was happy and wanted to recruit his father Asiah to hold his company in Jakarta.
How happy Joseph was to be trusted by one of the most influential and famous businessmen in the world. He now does not need to worry about looking for job vacancies anymore.
Once in Indonesia, William will introduce Yusuf to the entire board of directors in the company. He also agreed to Joseph's wish to see his parents first.
"I wish we could work together!" william's Pinta to Joseph.
