Recorded at dusk, though,

The orange silhouette was beautifully painted on the horizon. The orange-colored giant ball almost sank in the far west. Dirga just arrived at the angkringan mas Jambul parking lot. The chat is still quiet and seems to have just opened because Ranti looks still busy arranging merchandise at the table.

"Eh, there's Dirga's mas." Ranti was surprised after seeing the figure of the man who became a loyal customer in this place, "tumben Mas came here early? Not working, Mom?" ask Ranti curiously.

Not without reason Ranti asked like that, because usually Dirga always come at night. The black-haired girl knew Dirga well and knew what the job of the man who became Beatrice's lover was.

"Yes, it's a holiday" Dirga replied without looking at Ranti, "where's Jam? How did the tumben actually clock this time the balloons appear?" dirga asked after circulating the view and did not find Jambul there.

"Oah. Jam is still under contract. If it comes later after the prayer isyak usually. Angkringan still quiet Mas if this afternoon," said Ranti without looking at Dirga. He was busy arranging the various menus on top of the cart.

"Now the plate!" Ranti gave a small plate that Dirga usually asked to take the food that had been arranged neatly.

Quail egg satay, mushroom satay and chicken skin satay have filled Dirga plate. The handsome man seemed to want to forget for a moment his problem with Beatrice. He decided to hang out here while looking at the dense view of the city at dusk, "make me wedang uwuh, Ran." Dirga ordered the drink to Ranti, "take them at the table!" said Dirga while pointing to a place close to the sidewalk.

Dirga immediately moved from his place while carrying a plate of angkringan satay. Sitting on one of the long benches close to the highway had been chosen by the sweet man. His gaze could not be separated from the hustle of the capital which was increasingly becoming in the afternoon. Dirga looked far away somewhere. He is currently thinking of the best path to his relationship with Beatrice. I don't know where to go after this. Since seeing Soraya's response when meeting him at that time made Dirga think twice to continue this relationship to the level of marriage.

"Wedang uwuh sepesial for Mas Dirga!" said Ranti while putting Dirga drinks on the table.

"Thank you," said Dirga with a sweet smile, "eh Ran, what do you have to do after this?" dirga asked as Ranti prepared to return to her original place.

"Nothing, Mom. All work is done. Just sit sweetly waiting for the buyer," replied Ranti with a sweet smile.

"Yes, then just sit here. Talk to me, rather than alone there," said Dirga while giving code to Ranti to sit next to him.

Of course with pleasure, Ranti received a request from Dirga. He sat next to Dirga at a fairly close distance. The cute girl smiled happily because she could sit next to Dirga even though she only accompanied the conversation of things that were not important. Just like that, Ranti's heart had flowered because all this time she harbored other feelings for Beatrice's lover. In addition to being friendly and smiling, Dirga's attitude is very polite in Ranti's eyes.

"Ran, why don't you go to college?" dirga asked while taking a skewer of quail eggs from his plate.

"It costs nothing, Mom! Mangkane after graduating from school I was told to go to Jakarta to help Mas Jam in angkringan," replied Ranti with an eastern Javanese language accent.

"I'm sorry, if I may know where your parents work?" ask Dirga again. He was just curious about the family of this Jambul mas.

"Emak with the father of the peasant chili, Mas." replied Ranti without anyone covered the truth, "usually if in the rice fields there is no work, the mother of the grasshopper, Mas," ranti said as she stared at Dirga at a glance.

"Labour tubers?" dirga asked because he did not understand Ranti's intentions.

"Oh, that freelance laundry worker you mean?" Dirga assured that once again.

"That's the cool language." Ranti smiled faintly after hearing the term.

The conversation went on there until the sky turned dark. Dense traffic began to decompose even though sometimes back dense when the time comes for red lights. Dirga and Ranti laughed freely there when discussing funny things that had happened in this angkringan. Dirga felt comforted while talking to Ranti because the girl was very humble.

Meanwhile, in a luxury car that was stuck in traffic because of a red light, there was a beautiful woman who was being ignited by her emotions. Yes, that woman is none other than Soraya. There was a sense of annoyance that was present in his heart when his gaze saw the figure of the man he had been investigating all this time. Soraya observes the movements of Dirga and Ranti from inside the car.

"I'd better record them both. It's possible that Beatrice will think twice after knowing her boyfriend is with another girl" Soraya murmured as she reached into the phone stored in her bag.

"Sir, pull over! I want to keep an eye on that guy!" soraya's edict to Alpianto while pointing angkringan mas Jambul.

"Okay, ma'am," said Alpianto.

Soraya continued to watch Dirga's movements because of curiosity how the attitude of her daughter's lover. Soraya was suddenly furious when she saw Dirga touching the hand of the girl beside her. Of course, the scene did not escape from Soraya's cellphone recording.

"Oh, it turns out this is how he would behave if he was with a girl behind my daughter!" soraya muttered after finishing recording Dirga and Ranti.

"We're going home now!" soraya said to Alpianto after seeing Ranti moving from Dirga's side.

The luxury car drove back amid the city's traffic density. Soraya again saw the recording stored in his phone. As a mother, of course Soraya was angry after knowing how Dirga's attitude to other girls. He feels that Dirga is a young man who easily falls in love with another girl. This conclusion was certainly only obtained by Soraya from what she had just seen a few minutes ago.

"Basar men don't know it's lucky! It's good Bea wants to be with her, uh hang out with another girl. Friendly again!" soraya grumbled after she finished seeing the recording.

Heavy breathing sounds there. Soraya was still thinking of a way out of her troubles with Beatrice. Perhaps her recording of Dirga this afternoon could make her relationship with Beatrice even better, as she managed to show who Dirga really is.

"I'm gonna hand this tape over to Bea and I'm gonna make sure Bea gets mad. It could be that they broke up and maybe Bea would turn to the good Reyhan," Soraya murmured with a smirk that adorned her pretty face.
