“But he was!”

“Wait a minute, I haven't finished talking, I can just respond to their complaints? Who knows, someone's ideas and complaints are good and useful for the restaurant Ibu.”

“Yes I've apologized, next time, if there are customers who come, I don't get emotional first,” said the man.

“Iya, I know, Neng Intan also said that's kok.”

“Ya already, then I'll excuse you first.”

“Please, Sir.”

After the man passed from the restaurant, Aida who was still in pain, tried to stay calm, so that her innate anger did not widen everywhere.

“Why yes, rich people are always arrogant and arrogant, even though the wealth they have is all a mere deposit.”

“You're right Tin, the rich man does the question that way. Arrogant and haughty, what else are people who work as state officials, they are, even more arrogant.”

“Iya, it is still corruption, even though the salary they receive monthly can be for the cost of living one sub-district,” replied Aida berlagak know.

“Waau, they are really not grateful yes, just try them to compare with the salary we receive, just a tip of the nail.”

“Mest also, we remain grateful, because it has been given health and longevity, so that we can feed the children at home.

‘Iya, you are right Da, what else since Fatma gave us this job, we are no longer difficult to work scavenging garbage, fortunately not how much, the contempt is not even worth what it can be.”

“Ya already Tin, we should continue working,” Aida said to Tini.

“Good Da,” replied Tini while returning to work.

Although the restaurant is in residence by Intan, but the sustenance never leaves him, as long as Intan leaves, the restaurant entrusted to Aida, in Aida's hands, all goes safely under control.

But that night, after everyone had fallen asleep, some men, a man from Retno came to the restaurant that was closed at that time, so it must be, in the restaurant there was Ujang, and there was a man, who trusted Intan to take care of him.

Some of the men came slipping from behind the trees, because it was a drizzling rain that night, Ujang fell asleep very soundly, so he did not hear that the kitchen door was cogkel from outside.

Calmly and casually, the man entered the restaurant and cooked Intan's jewelry and money which amounted to so much, not just that, but just that, they also enjoyed the restaurant dishes that were still left at that time.

Although outside the atmosphere was very noisy and noisy, but Ujang was not aware and even he did not hear anything that night.

Fretfully, Ujang walked back and forth in the guest room, must he wait with fret, but his eyes were unceasingly watching Mang Ojo and the family pray.

After seeing Mang Ojo finished greeting, Ijang immediately rushed to meet Mang Ojo, after being close and when Ujang was about to talk, suddenly Mang Ojo raised his hand up.

Ujang was confused, why at that time Mang Ojo raised his hand, even though in religious lessons while still in school there was no addition to raising his hand after praying.

“Where I know, the Muslim is you, when you even go to me.”

“Iya too anyway,” replied Ujang a little embarrassed.

“Can't you pray, like them?”

“Earlier too, as a child, but since adolescence until now, I have left it.”

“Why was left behind? That's part of the religious teachings that you profess, later regret you know.”

“Actually sorry too, but I was so reluctant to run it.”

“I am a non-Muslim, seeing them always pray, sometimes my heart feels so foreign, it feels like I want to join them prostrate and worship their God and family.

“True, you want to convert to Islam?”

“Actually so, as more and more days, my Conscience more and more called to follow them, I must first forbid my daughter to convert to Islam, but after this incident, I became sorry.”

“Sorry why?”

“Try first I allow my daughter to convert to Islam and marry dr. Zaki, it must not happen like this.”

“I'm sorry, sir. hopefully the incident that my daughter experienced can give a valuable lesson for all of us.”

“It turns out you are smart too yes,” said Ahong while patting Ujang's shoulder slowly.
