"No need to add to it, ma'am." Rendy said in an annoyed tone.
"Here's the plate, let me take the rice." Said Bu Baras.
Just the first time he met Jihan, Laras also felt that Rendy was very compatible with Jihan. Jihan and Rendy's faces do look similar if they're really looked at carefully.
Looks soul mate. Hehe. Mumbles Barrel in the heart.
"Gee. Opor chicken thighs made by Mom are very good. Although the made by Bu Darmi is also delicious. But this has a distinctly different taste." Said Jihan praising Bu Laras' cooking.
"really? I was scared before, Son Jihan. If it doesn't match up with Nak Jihan's tongue." Said Bu Baras.

"Let Rendy open. You guys please do more about the opor." Rendy.
Chequek.
"Hi Brother Rendy. This Galuh bring souvenirs for Mom. If Rendy doesn't want to either." Galuh.
"You're in, brother." Galuh. Although Rendy did not answer but Galuh still entered through Rendy.
"Hay Ma'am...." Galuh said cut off to see another woman sitting next to Bu Laras.
"Who's Ma'am?" Galuh asked Bu Laras while glancing towards Jihan.
"Oh this is Jihan. Rendy's boss." Said Bu Baras.
"Hey. I'm Jihan." Said Jihan.
"False." Galuh introduced himself.
Jihan was still smiling even though Galuh was not too happy with the presence of Jihan. Clearly visible on Galuh's sour face. Rendy also knows the situation that is happening right now.
"Said Galuh bring souvenirs for Mom." Rendy broke the awkward atmosphere in her dining room.
"Oh yes Mom. Galuh Abis from his hometown of Gio. Continues Galuh inget if I really like the same Tiwul Sweet typical of Gunungkidul." Galuh said while giving gifts that he brought.
"You are finished from Gunungkidul. Stamp nyicipin Walang (grasshopper) Fried ndak?" Tanya Bu Laras who suddenly his accent became the Javanese accent.
"Sampun Ma'am." Galuh said hesitantly.
"Hehe. Pinter also you Gal learn the language of the answer. Eat together all yuk." Said Bu Baras.
"Ehm not Mom. Gio waited a long time. Not good." Galuh.
"Oh yes. New bride. Forgetting. Yes, yes. Tell Gio to thank him for much." Said Bu Baras.
"It's a shame Ma'am, Sister, Mba Jihan." Galuh.
Jihan who was called 'Mbak' was a little surprised. He felt strange himself called by the typical name of the Javanese.
"Yuk Mother interracial. Jihan son continued again yes eat it. Cold hunting is not good." Said Bu Baras.
"Yes, Mom." Answer Jihan.
Rendy also accompanied Jihan to eat. Now there are only two of them at the dinner table. Rendy knew her mother meant to take Galuh away.
With all his might Rendy gathered up courage.
"Yes?" Reply Jihan.
Rendy was silent again. His tongue and lips felt stiff to continue the conversation.
"Damn?" Rendy said again.
"Ehm. What's?" Ask Jihan.
Rendy was silent again. Although he already had a lot of courage but somehow his tongue and lips felt heavy to say.
"Damn?" Rendy said a third time.
"Yes. What's up?!" Shouted Jihan so upset with Rendy's attitude.
"Let's date?" Pinta Rendy who made Jihan was immediately shocked.
"Huh? The aa-pa? Dating-dating?" Jihan asked as if she could not believe what Rendy had just said.
Rendy looked down. And just nodding his head in response. He was relieved to have expressed his intention that he had been close to meetings. But after the feeling of relief now precisely the feeling of shame and fear of rejection into one. Sweaty corn soaked Rendy's handsome face.
In addition, the reflection of the light beam of the lamp increasingly revealed the nervous face of Rendy who was waiting for an answer from Jihan.
"Antar I'm home now." Said Jihan.
"Why? I'm sorry that I've been too presumptuous with you. Sorry if that offended you, Jihan. But I really don't intend to hurt your heart at all." Rendy panicked. He was afraid that his words would offend Jihan.
"If you don't want to take me home, I can take a taxi online." Said Jihan. Jihan reached into the phone in her bag and ordered a taxi online.
"Udah. 10 minutes to come." Said Jihan while showing the phone screen towards Rendy.
Actually Jihan was not angry or offended by Rendy's words. It was just that he was too shocked to hear Rendy's request.
"I love you, Jihan. All this time I kept this feeling from you. But on the advice of my mother as a responsible man should immediately express her feelings before the same other man." Rendy.
"My first love is not doing well right now, Rendy. How could I lightly accept the love of another man." Jihan explained.
"I'm sure Mr. Abdi will recover soon Jihan." Rendy.
"Are you a doctor? Even doctors who are medical experts cannot say that." Said Jihan.
"I'm sure if our minds are positive then that's what's going to happen." Rendy.
"Don't switch the conversation." Said Jihan who started selling expensive to Rendy.
"You don't want to answer first because you want to think about the answer first or something else." Ask Rendy.
"Of course." Answer cuek Jihan.
"I'm still waiting for you, Jihan. But I don't know how patiently I am to face you." Rendy.
On the other hand Bu Baras Intentionally eavesdropped on the conversation between Rendy and Jihan. In his little heart he hopes Jihan will accept the feelings of Rendy. But everything Bu Laras does not want to interfere in the affairs of the heart between Rendy and Jihan. Because the heart cannot be forced to flow as it is.
"Come Rendy. I myself cannot say an answer to you.I really thank you for giving me your love." Jehan Said
"alright. I accept all the decisions later whatever answers come out of you I will legowo accept." Rendy.
"Where's mom?" Ask Jihan.
"Mother here is Jihan's son.Previously mom and Rendy are sorry son Jihan if it makes son Jihan feel disturbed tonight. I'm sorry if I'm too involved, I just don't want Rendy to always close the hatch for girls. Rendy has never dated Nak Jihan. Even to like a girlfriend alone he is not able to. Hence Mother suggested she express her feelings to Nak Jihan at least Nak Jihan knowing Rendy's true feelings.
One thing I ask you if Nak Jihan refused the love of Rendy please don't hate Rendy. You can still be friends, right?" Said Bu Baras.
