Three months had passed, Arselo and Arsela had already returned to the city. Today is the first day Arselo returns to work at the headquarters, as usual he will be picked up by Sofyan, his trusted assistant. Mr. Ardan has rarely come to the office because he has started to trust his eldest son.
"Please sir" said Sofyan who had opened the car door for Arselo.
"Thank you" said Arselo, he got into the car.
Sofyan felt a little strange with his master's attitude, the article was only the first time his master said thanks for the trivial things he did.
"Sophyan? Are you going to stand there?" asked Arselo, who saw Sofyan motionless from where he was standing, after opening the car door for him.
"Ah, sorry sir. We are leaving now" Sofyan said after coming to his surprise. He got into the car and sat behind the wheel.
"How are you and the company?" asked Arselo when they had started to enter the streets were quite crowded even in the morning.
"My news is good sir, and the company is running smoothly" said Sofyan as it is.
"Thankfully, it looks like you can be very reliable taking care of the company when I'm not in place" Arselo said
"All thanks to the guidance of Mr. Ardan who made me what I am today" Sofyan replied.
Yes, Mr. Ardan who has helped him to be who he is now, if not for the generosity of Mr. Ardan maybe currently Sofyan still lives in the streets, I don't know.
Sofyan still remembered when Mr. Ardan reached out his hand to help him stand up after he was rocked by market thugs for not getting money from the busking results.
Arselo just patted Sofyan on the shoulder slowly, he also learned of Sofyan's origins when they started school together. Their ages did not differ much, only two months apart. But Sofyan looks more mature than Arselo, even Sofyan knows the origin of Arselo's bad attitude.
Silence enveloped their journey, Arselo focused on the tab in his hand, while Sofyan focused on driving. As usual, the car they were carrying passed through the Kindergarten school building opposite a viral restaurant that only opened a few months ago.
Sofyan also saw Safira who had just come out of the gate of the Kindergarten school. Previously Sofyan had investigated the background of the woman he almost hit. Sofyan learns that Sapphira already has three twins and is a serial widow but she does not know about her past husband, even he also knew about Abizar and that did not make him undo the intention to try to approach Sapphira.
But until now he had not had time to see Safira again because of his busy work schedule even often overtime and he also rarely had a holiday at the weekend. Sofyan plans to take a weekend off this week to meet with Safira.
"What are you noticing?" asked Arselo who looked at Sofyan's eyes and he only saw the back of a woman who was walking on the sidewalk towards the crossroads.
"No master" said Sofyan quickly.
Arselo just nodded his head slowly as his eyes looked back at the tab in his hand.
The traffic lights are back in green, Sofyan starts to run the car he drives back to the office which is only a few hundred meters away.

Safira helps Anisa every morning to take her children to school and will go straight to the restaurant where she works. I don't know why today he felt someone was watching him, but when he looked back there was no one, there were only cars waiting for the green light. He immediately took a thousand steps to avoid the possibility that there were indeed people who noticed him.
"Bu Fira why are you so bored?" ask Santi one of the waiters.
"There's nothing San, can you please deliver my room's cold drink?" ask Sapphira to Santi.
"What do you want your mom to do?"
"What is important is a cold drink, I go to the room first" said Safira leaving Santi.
Tok...
The sound of the door being knocked.
"Instead" said Safira.
"This is the booze" said Santi while storing avocado juice on Safira's table.
"Well ma'am, excuse me" Sinta said before leaving the room.
Sapphira continued to work with the calculator and the papers in front of her, currently calculating income and expenses per month. Call soon the end of the month so he'll finish bookkeeping this month soon.
While in focus, Safira's phone rang and displayed the caller's number.
"Anisa, what's he calling me?" safira asked in surprise because this was the first time Anisa had called. Safira also shifted the green button on the phone and placed it on the side of the ear.
"Assalamu'alaikium Nis, what's wrong?"
"Wa'alaikum greetings from Fira, sorry to interrupt. I want to ask, can the children find the mother? They asked to go back to the restaurant" Anisa replied from there.
"The kids are coming here?" tanya Safira.
"Yes mom, can you?" ask Anisa.
"May, just bring it here. But be careful when bringing them across later" Safira replied.
"Well ma'am, if it is like that we will go there" said Anisa.
"Yes, I'm waiting. Are the kids starting to learn again?" ask Safira.
"Yes ma'am, they just got into class" Anisa replied.
"Oh well" said Safira.
After hanging up the phone, Safira went back to work. Not feeling the clock has shown lunch time, he also came out of his room to just help the waiters who were busy serving visitors.
As he exited the room, he heard a commotion in front of the restaurant. Sapphira came to find out what was going on.
"What's this?" safira asked when he reached the crowd.
How surprised he was when he saw two women who were angry at their subordinates.
"Well, who are we meeting today? It's shocking" said the woman who looked down on him.
"Don't see each other, Sarah, Devi?" safira asked the two women in front of him.
"Which other guy did you make your financial filler until you had a restaurant this big, as I remember you were even a waitress for a little restaurant?" devi asked the circus while researching Safira's appearance.
"Are you not satisfied with trapping me first?" ask Safira.
Just as the commotion was still going on, Anisa came with her three children.
"Mama" called Qirani as she ran towards Sapphira and hugged her mother's waist.
"You guys have come, baby? You better get in the mama's room?" safira asked his children.
"But mama?" ask Raiyan.
"Later mama followed" said Safira while rubbing the heads of her three children alternately.
"Nisa, please bring them inside huh" Sapphira commanded Anisa. Anisa obeys Safira's orders and takes the children to the workspace.
"Who are they?" asked Sarah who had been watching Devi and Sapphira.
"They're my kids"
