" Yes, I don't pray, this dirty shirt!" yana's reason again on her bosa.

Yana fries chicken for her lunch side dish, Yana does not care about the eyes of her boss wife who is engrossed in her eyes, Yana so a little less like the eyes of the boss' wife.

" Have you eaten and washed the dishes?" said Eni to Yana who was frying chicken in a frying pan.

" Allah hu akbar, have not eaten been told otherwise, I know that my work does not need to be told." inwardly Yana in the heart.

Yana continued her unfinished work, working in the stalls was no time to rest, there were always customers who came, Yana passed her patiently.

When the time came home, Yana was provided with a packet of chicken rice by mas Bambang, rice that was brought home can be for her children at home later.

" Home home, huh, mas?" pamit Yana's permission to go home.

Bambang nodded his head at a glance towards Yana, then continued his work that Yana lived.

Yana carries her weak body, with step lontai Yana trying strong to continue her steps on foot towards her house.

The Yana children ate voraciously, all this time they only ate omelet every day, only this time they ate well.
