Many people always equate her face with the famous singer named Raisa, her beautiful face, white skin, long hair decomposed black, supported by the proportion of height and appropriate weight, makes Tia look more charming. Sometimes when crowded, he gets an offer from some talent scouts who want him to take part in casting an ad or soap opera after the airing, he gets an offer, but quickly Tia rejected it subtly because the field she loved so much was the work she was currently in.
“You're ready, baby?” ask Gilang when Tia got into his car.
“Huft . . . I'm very nervous.”
“Don't be nervous, My mom will definitely like you.” Gilang helped to attach the seat belt to Tia's body, and began to plug the gas.
“Do you ever tell about me to your family.”
“Emmm . . I only tell you if I get such a beautiful and kind angel who wants to marry a man like me.”
“What do you mean? I told you, never put yourself down.”
“I'm just a regular employee with a small monthly salary, Tia. How can I boast in front of you who pay a dozen million.”
“Is love for you measured by matter?” tanya Tia was sad. “I sincerely love you Gilang, regardless of what you have always rested on. I've explained many times, but always you . . . ” Tia subdued her wait because she felt that she was going to cry.
“I'm sorry, please don't be sad. I won't touch her anymore. Today we will meet my family and plan our wedding date. I'm sorry, yes.” Gilang grasped Tia's hand with his left hand. Tia nodded and smiled.
The sedan car drove through the crowded city of Jakarta, during the trip Tia was still trying to reduce her nervous feelings. Because during her dating with Gilang, she was never invited to meet the Gilang family, and today is the first time she will meet her beloved family.
“Ma, I'm home.” Said Gilang when the two of them had entered the house and headed for the middle room.
“Welcome dear child Mama, is this the girlfriend you have applied for?”

“Good, Aunt.” Answer Tia softly.
“Gaby?” tia asked Gilang as they walked towards the dining room.
“My sister. This year he took a course. She took a course related to cooking, at least that's what I know?”

“I'll tell you later.”
“Sit next to Gilang, Tia.” Mama Ratna let her future daughter-in-law sit when they reached the dining table.
“Come, Brother, try Gaby.” cuisine Gaby warmly offered the side dishes she had just cooked. Hot steam still billows over each dish.
“Thanks, Gaby.”
“Let's eat first, after that we chat in the middle.”
That afternoon the atmosphere in the dining room was a little more festive because of the gathering of Gilang coupled with Tia. Gaby showed her fondness towards her future sister-in-law. Unceasingly Gaby praised Tia's beauty.
“Why did Gaby just take the course? Why not just go to college? Let Gaby later to grow.” Tia asked on the sidelines of her food feed.
“Eemmm . . . .gab . . . “
“That's because Auntie didn't allow it. Aunty wants later after she gets married, she will be a dedicated housewife for her husband.”
“But, Aunt . .” tia's kaliamat stopped because her hand was suddenly grasped with a cross. Tia knew if Gilang wanted him to stop and not continue the debate.
“Now we continue eating, we continue chatting later after eating.” Terang Cross.
