Galuh sipped a drink in front of him and began to notice the situation around him, he was now sitting alone in his chair.
Oma was talking with her colleagues and had moved to another table, while Reza was talking to another guest not far from the table where she was.
Hwuh! Galuh exhaled, her lips puffing at Reza's back who stood behind her.
His left hand moved against his face on the table, one of his hands again tapping his fingertips. Galuh was waiting for a moment Reza finished talking to his guest, and it felt like a long time ago.
Galuh turned to the music player who was chanting old and romantic songs, request one of the invited guests. The voice that sounded so beautiful, amazed him and immediately applauded which was then followed by the other guests.
Her lips, which had been pursed, turned into a smile. Especially when seeing the interaction of the main singer who duet with one of the invited guests.

“You want me to choose food there?” invite Reza, suddenly just stand behind Galuh and surprise him. Holding her shoulders softly, then bringing her face close to Galuh's ears.
Galuh immediately turned his face. Their distance was so close, making their noses touch each other. The man's breath felt warm touching the skin of his face.
“Bo-leh,” he said nervously and nodded his head.
Without hesitation Reza grabbed Galuh's hand and grasped it tightly, they walked towards the buffet table that served various kinds of food dishes accompanied by the envious gazes of the looking guests.
Galuh tasted all the dishes and felt very satisfied. He gave a thumbs up, “The food is very good, if every day like this can-can body I will stretch faster.”
Reza laughs to hear it, “Stay sweet really,” said Reza blinked one eye.
Galuh rolled his eyeballs, his lips were smiling as well. “Bang, I say to the toilet first yes.”
“Hem, the toilet is over there.” Reza told the location of the toilet in his house, especially those on the ground floor of his house. “You Want me to take you there?” ask Reza to stand up. “You don't know exactly where.” is
“Ish, no need.” Prevent Galuh from holding Reza's arm, and ask her to sit back down. “I can do it myself, it has been told the direction just now. After all there are many maids here, I can ask one of them.”
“Ya already, I wait here.”
Galuh nodded then stood up from his chair, he stepped following the directions from Reza to get there. Its location adjacent to the main kitchen, only limited by thick walls makes Galuh able to see the bustle of the servants there.
Out of the toilet, Galuh did not directly return to the main room. He stopped first in the kitchen. Curious, peeking at whatever the servants were doing in there.
“Yul, if you have finished eating help deliver drinks to the park. Mr. Danil asked to bring him two avocado juice for him as Mr. Aldi.” The servant reminded his colleague Yuli, who was eating her food.
“Hmm, done!” he said with his mouth full.
Galuh walked over, pulled up the empty chair and sat down beside Yuli. His eyes widened to see what the woman was eating.
“Wih, cenil mix getuk. Delicious,” said Galuh called the name of a market snack wrapped in banana leaves that Yuli was enjoying.
“Eh!” Yuli spontaneously stopped her eating, staring at the foreign woman who appeared suddenly in the kitchen of her master's house. “Mbaknya want?” tanyanya.
Galuh rubbed his lips with his tongue, did not feel a gulp saw the sprinkling of grated coconut on which there was a thick liquid of brown sugar. Market snacks that have rarely met in this city, which used to always be his favorite when accompanying his mother shopping to the traditional market in his village.

Yuli chuckled at hearing that, “Nih, fortunately there is still one pack. Pas really, this sustenance mah his name.”
“Thank you, yes. You know, I was really curious to know all of you here. Uh, this is the answer. I can taste the snacks market here,” Galuh said with a laugh. “Oh, yes. Introduce Me Galuh Nanda.”
“Yuli,” replied Yuli welcomed Galuh's hand. “Ehm, Sister Galuh is not a guest at her birthday party big lady?”
“Iya,” says Galuh. “I came here invited with Mr. Reza. Coincidentally I work in a mall with Mahendra's family.”
“Oh.”
The two were engrossed in conversation, after spending a large pack of Galuh market snacks were said to be back to join in the birthday party oma Ratna.
“Hey, why are you guys so good at it. Do not see more guests coming and food at the garden table many are starting to empty!” shouted a fat lady dressed in the typical clothes of a kitchen chef standing before them with a waist-tousled look at Galuh and Yuli with a wrathful face.
“Come quickly bring the food, do not let the big lady get angry because there are guests who complain about the food that runs out because it is late served!” later orders.
Galuh gawking, as he was about to get out of the room his shoulder was pushed until his body retreated against the wall behind him. “Where are you going, we have a lot of work to do. Quickly bring this to the table in the garden section, and all of you check other less food.”
“But Madam, she is not ..” Yuli tries to tell the woman, but she doesn't seem to care and scolds Yuli instead.
“You want to say he's not on duty at the back. Can't! All the servants who work tonight, whether he's the employee's default here or not, still have to obey my orders. Now quickly bring this food!” The woman put a large bowl full of rendang meat into Galuh's hands.
“But Mistress ..”
Galuh pulled the edge of Yuli's shirt and blinked her eyes. He whispered something in the girl's ear and took her out of there.
Galuh scanned his surroundings hoping not to meet Reza there. He smiled with relief while carrying a bowl of food, stepping towards the garden. Tonight she will be a temporary servant at the birthday party of Oma Ratna, the grandmother of her lover Reza.
