Morning at the hospital. Niana was already preparing to return to the Hardiansyah residence. He was finally able to return to his usual activities.
There were no parents or in-laws there, as they were busy organizing events to welcome Niana. Niana did not know that, she looked gloomy when she did not find them coming out the door.
"Let's go home" King asked Niana.
"Yes, come on."

Meanwhile in Joshua's nursery. He was still lying in a hospital bed with his eyes wide open. Look at the ceiling with an empty shell.
As he opened his eyes, Kinan was gone, possibly leaving the room early in the morning, while he was still asleep. No matter what feeling was going on, once again he felt the same vibe when he liked Niana first, only this was stronger because he and Kinan had gone through the first kiss phase.
Buckler.
The door of the room opened, as Joshua turned to the door, hoping that the one who appeared from behind the door was Kinan. The smile immediately faded instantly when in reality the ones who entered were King and also Niana.
"Hy bro" King said to Joshua.
Joshua let out a long sigh as he watched King and Niana join hands. What a bad fate of a single man who is still wandering in search of love.
"It's early in the morning and you're very friendly" said King with a face that paled.
"Haha, that's your pain."
"Good morning, Jo," said Niana.
"For Nia, it looks like you've gotten better."
"Yes, brother, that's why I've been allowed to go home."
Niana and King sat in the chair next to Joshua. Niana looked around the room, and she did not see Kinan.
"Where's sister?"
"Oh that ..he had a set early in the morning so he came home" Joshua replied.
"You can go home tomorrow, right?" ask King.
"Yes, the doctor said that."
"I'll pick you up tomorrow" said King.
"Finally you can count on" Joshua told King.
"Hey what do you mean" King said.
"Honey don't be like that, Kak Jo's words are true, haha." Niana and Joshua laughed together, while King put on his pouting face.
For a long time they chatted, King was ceaselessly the bulian material of Joshua and Niana. King is eager to attack Niana at this time also because of anxiety. It was a pity that Joshua was among them.
...***...
On the way home, Niana looked at every street vendor who was selling on the shoulder of the road, for some reason she wanted to eat those foods.
"Darling can we turn around for a second?" asked Niana who had now turned to King.
"What's it for, baby?"
"I saw a wagon that said hodgepodge, it's a typical Indo food, I want to eat it," said Niana.
"Rumpy-gado? Tell you what, later when I'm at home I'll have the chef make it for you,"
"Why? I want to be there, quickly turn around, we've already missed a long way" Niana said with a sharp glare at King.
"Yes-yes."
King returned to turn the direction, towards the place where the hodgepodge sellers had been passed a few kilometers. after a while they finally arrived, it was quite difficult to find a parking space there because it was lunch hour, already, a lot of office employees who eat in the row of sellers five feet.
"Mom, I want a hodgepodge of two yes," Niana told the middle-aged lung mothers of the hodgepodge seller.
"Every neng, in wait for a moment ya."
The mother stepped into her cart to make an order for King and Niana. From a distance Niana looks very focused on looking at the shrewdness of the mother's hand when stalling beans on a large enough flat stone.
As a rich boy in the land of lions, he never saw a stone that turned out to serve to smooth foodstuffs.
"Why you?" king asked when he was surprised by Niana's behavior.
"Unbelievably, I've only seen one like that for the first time" Niana said with an unmoved look.
"I mean cobek?"
"Oh, so the stone is called a tear."Niana shook her head in a sign of understanding.
"But why do you know?" niana was confused.
"Mama still often uses traditional tools to mix sambal," King told his wife.
"I just found out, I'm gonna ask my mommy right away."
After a while of waiting, finally their order came as well, two portions of hodgepodge were already on the table. King seemed to dislike the food in front of him, because he was the type of person who did not like food with vegetable base.
"Emm, what a pity, this is beyond my expectations" Niana said as her taste buds detected a very good taste.
"I don't like vegetables, you just spend them." King pushed the plate in front of Niana.
"You were born here, and you don't like Nusantara's food, I'm the newcomer, really like this. try to say you don't like it first" Niana told her husband.
"Let's open his mouth." Niana thrust a spoon filled with hodgepodge, King initially closed his mouth tightly, but when he saw Nian's eyes bulging he immediately opened his mouth wide.
King began to chew the food in his mouth.His eyes immediately sparkled, because it turns out the hodgepodge is very tasty. Looks like his tongue has been too often entered junk food so forget if the typical food of the country itself is no less delicious.
"Ehm, that's fine." King pulled back the plate he had pushed. Niana could only hold back her laughter because of King's prestige which she thought was adorable.
...***...
King's car entered the front yard of Hardiansyah's residence. Pak I opened the car door for Niana while another waiter dropped off the goods from inside the car garage.
"The big master asked the young master and Miss, to go to the back garden" said Mr. Kus.
"Good sir thank you."
With hands joined together, they stepped towards the back garden of the hardiansyah residence. Niana scrunched her forehead as she looked at the exit to the curtain-covered garden.
King acted as if he did not know anything, but this was his plan, although it was a little late because Niana asked to stop by the hodgepodge.
Niana shifted the curtain and her eyes instantly widened perfectly.
"Surprise!!!!!"
Both her parents, King's parents and Rachel were already there. Even to welcome his arrival, the garden was already inlaid in such a way. Rachel hugged Niana.
"Sir Nia, I miss you so much."
"Sama Kak Nia too" said Niana.
"Welcome back baby," said Raya while hugging Niana, Jihan did not want to miss. Jihan is happy because her only child has returned cheerful.
"Come here, we'll eat together, papa's hungry for you to come" said Reyhan.
Niana and King confronted the large amount of food that lined up neatly on the long table. They stared at each other in silence, how to explain it, their stomachs were really full because they ate a lot of hodgepodge.
