Together they enter the mall.

“Om and Aunt want to eat what?” asked Fikri while walking inside the mall.

“If the important Om eats rice,” replied Papah.

“If you eat Malaysian food, Om and Aunty would not?” ask Fikri.

“Om and Aunt have never tried Malaysian food,” Mamah replied.

“The food is various there is malay food and china food,” said Fikri.

“How, Mah? Want to try, no?” ask Papah to Mamah.

“Bby,” replied Mamah.

“Bby, Mr. Fikri. Om and Aunty want to try,” replied Papah Dodi.

“Do not call Mr. Fikri. Call me Fikri. I am still young,” said Fikri.

“Good, Fikri,” says Papah Dodi.

Fikri takes Nessa and Nessa's parents to a Malaysian restaurant. Fikri invited them to sit at a table that was enough for the four of them. A restaurant waiter approached them and handed them a menu book. They choose the food in the menu.

Malaysian food is usually Malay food and Chinese food, so they have no trouble choosing food. After ordering their food, they talked for a while.

“Nes, Papahmu wants to introduce you to Papah's friend's child,” said Mamah.

“Try Papah who spoke to Nessa,” said Mamah told Papah to speak directly to Nessa.

“Begini, Nes. Papah and Papah's friend want to introduce you to Papah's friend's child. Name's Zamzam. He's a mechanical engineering scholar. He works at a BUMN company in Bandung. Later Papah and Papah's friend who arranged your meeting,” said Papah.

“How? Do you want us to meet Zamzam?” ask Mamah.

“Mau, Mah. Provided it is not the husband of the person, the girlfriend of the person or the fiancee of the person,” replied Nessa.

“You just calm down. If Zamzam has a wife, Papah cannot sleep in his room! Mamah told Papah to sleep outside with mosquitoes,” Mamah said with excitement.

“Later Papah make sure that Zamzam is not married,” Papah said.

“It should! Do not let our children be treated arbitrarily by others,” exclaimed Mamah.

Without them realizing Fikri from earlier was silent while listening to their conversation.

The food they ordered came. They stopped the conversation and ate together quietly.

After they finished eating they headed to the musholah to pray dzuhur. They are separated when they enter the ablution. Papah and Fikri go into the man's ablution. While Nessa and Mamah enter through a place of ablution specifically for women.

When in the mosque Nessa saw Papah and Fikri praying together. Papah became his priest. Many people who followed joined to become makmum.

“Hei! Don't look ahead! Pray fast first! Later the prayer time dzuhur keburu runs out,” said Mamah to surprise Nessa.

“Iya,” replied Nessa.

Nessa quickly used her face and prayed dzuhur.

After the completion of the dzuhur prayer, Nessa and Fikri pamit to return to Bandung. Papah and Mamah drove them to the front of the lobby. They waited in front of the lobby until Fikri's car came.

Finally, Fikri's car arrived in front of the lobby. Nessa says goodbye to her parents. He kissed the backs of his parents' hands one by one. Fikri greeted Papah and Mamah Nessa.

“Nessa go first. Assalamualaikum,” says Nessa.

“Waalaikumsalam,” replied Papah and Mamah.

Nessa and Fikri get in the car, and Fikri's car goes to the mall.

Papah and Mamah watched Fikri's car from a distance.

“Kok, it feels like letting go of a child and son-in-law,” said Mamah as she looked at Firas' car that was starting to move away.

“Huss, don't fantasize the no-no. Who should we be aware of Fikri? Later be disappointed,” said Papah.

“It's ah, we're home. Papah is cape,” Papah said.

Papah and Mamah walked to the basement to the parking lot.

A week has passed. As Papah said, today Nessa has an appointment with Zamzam, the son of Papah Dodi's friend. Yesterday Papah sent a photo of Zamzam. In his picture Zamzam looks handsome. His face was shady like a patient and diligent man of worship. He was thirty-six years old. The ideal type of husband. Papah and his friend arranged for Nessa and Zamzam to meet at a cafe in Bandung.

Nessa dresses up so pretty. He hoped that his match this time would pay off. He also did not want to continue living alone while in Bandung. If he married Zamzam, he would become a resident of Bandung.

This time Nessa left not using an online taxi, but she chose an online taxi. He did not want his appearance to be messy due to the wind and dust.

An online taxi driven by Nessa stops in front of a cafe. Nessa goes into the cafe. Armed with the photo given by Papah, Nessa looks for Zamzam in the cafe.

Nessa rolled her eyes around the cafe. Nessa finally found Zamzam. When Zamzam saw Nessa, he immediately stood up and smiled at Nessa.

“Bang Zamzam?” ask Nessa.

Nessa deliberately called Zamzam with the name of brother, because Zamzam people across the island.

“Nessa, yes?” Zamzam asked back.

“Yes, I am Nessa Mr. Dodi's son,” replied Nessa.

“How are you?” greet Zamzam and invite Nessa Salaman.

“Good,” replied Nessa.

“Please sit,” says Zamzam.

Nessa sits in front of Zamzam.

“What do you drink?” ask Zamzam while giving a menu list.

“Or want to order food directly?” ask Zamzam.

“Let's go, Bang. We chat first, aja,” said Nessa.

“Alright,” Zamzam replied.

Nessa chose a drink that was in the menu book. He chose the ice lemon tea soft drink, refreshing and not filling. He will soon have lunch with Zamzam. But before lunch, they will get acquainted first. So that they can get along with each other.

They started their conversation. Starting from the school where, where college, where work, hobbies and others. As their conversation grew familiar, suddenly Fikri came and sat down next to Nessa. Nessa is shocked to see Fikri suddenly sitting next to her.

Well, it could be this bad, Nessa said in her heart.

“Darling, my waist hurts. You anyway, not enough one round ask to continue. I will be overwhelmed by memu-askan you,” said Fikri while rubbing his waist.

Zamzam was shocked to hear Fikri's words. Nessa was immediately embarrassed to hear Fikri's words.

Basic bullies! It always annoys people again dating, Nessa said in her heart.

“Who's this, Nes?” asked Zamzam while pointing to Fikri.

“Atasan Nessa, Bang,” replied Nessa.

“Atasan? But how does he speak like that?” ask Zamzam suspiciously.

“She is indeed happy to disturb Nessa,” replied Nessa.

“For a while, Bang,” Nessa stood up then pulled Fikri's hand and took Fikri away from the place.

“Honey, where are you taking me?” tanya Fikri follows Nessa who keeps pulling Fikri's hand.

Nessa keeps pulling Fikri out of the cafe. He took Fikri to the parking lot.

“What do you want, anyway? It's great to bother me,” said Nessa in annoyance.

“Seenaaknya Mr. said so in front of Bang Zamzam. He's my Papah friend's son. Later it is suspected that I am a naughty woman who I-pul-bo with men. Want to keep my face and my parents' face together?” asked Nessa who was about to cry from being annoyed at Fikri.
