One problem is solved, a comfortable residence is now Tiara occupied. The house with a modern minimalist design with a spacious courtyard overgrown with several shady trees such as mango and guava makes the home page more shady and soothing.
After talking for a long time with my grandmother who took Tiara for a walk around the house and yard Tiara also helped the grandmother to prepare dinner. With the spirit of four five Tiara doing so, he prepared all the foodstuffs needed to make the menu as per the grandmother mentioned. Chicken soup and corn parchment plus fried fish which was first marinated by the grandmother of the faith. Tiara just took it from inside the refrigerator.
Grandma watched everything Tiara did, in her heart she admired the girl. Even though he was young and looked from the family, but it turns out he was also deft to do kitchen work. Since childhood Tiara who is the only daughter is used to always follow what her mother does. Although her mother did not use the services of a housekeeper to help her, she did her own housework. He also taught Tiara to do all the work. As a woman the ability to take care of the household is one of the skills that must be possessed.
Since then Tiara has been used to helping her mom with homework. Moreover, cooking, he once took up a hobby in the kitchen, spending time producing a variety of menu results of trial recipes that he recently discovered on social media. Until the time he had to stay away from his parents and ngekost in Bandung Tiara was used to be independent and did not complain in the least.
After dinner and cleaning all the dirty kitchen utensils, Tiara asked permission to rest. He entered a room that Grandma had prepared.
"Alhamdulillah, finally be able to rest as well" Tiara laid her body on that comfortable bed, although not as plump as a bed when he lived in an elite boarding house in the city center, Tiara is grateful to still find a comfortable place to live today.
"From tomorrow I have to find a job, my college days are just a few days away. I should have had money to pay for the semester before the lecture began" Tiara spoke to herself, slowly closing her eyes to continue all her plans in a dream.
Early in the morning, the unpretentious chicken kokokokan with the morning kumandang adhan managed to wake Tiara from his slumber. Last night a heavy sleepiness attacked him, tired all day making him not remember anything. His eyes immediately closed when his head was attached to the pillow. Tiara immediately cleansed herself, took ablution water and fulfilled her dawn duty. Do not forget the sacred verses he chanted as a routine before the new day that he will live. Hoping to get a lot of blessing for him in living his day.
Looking for a job was her agenda today, some files she could use to apply for were already Tiara prepared in her carry bag. Pamit on Grandma Imah after she finished helping all her homework.
More than three five companies that he went to keep a complete application with his CV, it's okay if it's just being a janitor, most importantly for the current Tiara he could earn a halal income.
When adzan dzuhur reverberated, not a single company gave him hope. Tiara sat on her butt in a mosque garden chair after she carried out her dzuhur duties.
Not far from the mosque was seen a restaurant that so many visitors because it was time for lunch. Tiara also felt that the worms in her stomach had asked for her rights, but that was not the focus of Tiara at this time she was more interested in trying to find luck in the restaurant that was quite luxurious.
His feet stepped towards the restaurant opposite the mosque.
"Bismillah, may this time be successful" Tiara suggested to herself.
"Assalamu'alaikum, I'm sorry Pa would ask if the personnel section next to where? I'd like to apply for a job" Tiara met with the security guard at the restaurant,
"Wa'alaikumsalam, Neng labor jobs? asked the security guard, a man who was no longer young but looked fit.
"Yes, Pa. There are no vacancies here?" tiara asked for information on the job vacancies the restaurant needed.
"Concidentally, I met Mr. Riki, he said that here it takes additional people to become a dishwasher. If Neng wants to try, I will take you to see Mr. Riki" Fresh wind began to feel blowing, Tiara nodded her head steadily, she was willing to work even though only as a dishwasher.
"I'll call you inside" the security guard walked into the post, grabbed the phone against the wall of the guard post, looking like he was contacting someone.
"Come, come with me" not long after the security guard came out and invited Tiara to come with him.
They entered the restaurant area from a door commonly used for employee mobilization, carefully Tiara entered the room that read Staff Only it.
"Neng wait here, I meet him first" Tiara nodded and sat down on the chair that was already in the room. He circulated his gaze into every space that his vision reached. From the glass wall of the room where he was seen some people in uniform look busy back and forth carrying various dishes in his tray. It seems like the waiters are busy delivering the food orders of the guests, Tiara thought.
"Please enter Neng, Mr. Riki was waiting inside" the security officer who had taken Tiara out of the closed room, at the door attached to a small board that read Manager Room, and the door was, it made Tiara a little nervous as she was going to meet the manager of this restaurant straight away.
Tiara took in a deep breath then exhaled slowly, relieving the nervousness that suddenly struck her heart. "Bismillah" he murmured softly,
"Lake in!" a man's voice told him to come in.
"Assalamu'alaikum" Tiara opened the door and entered the room with a greeting.
"Wa'alaikumsalam" the male friend who was sitting in his big chair, he replied without turning his eyes focused on the laptop screen in front of him.
"Good day, sir. I am Pearl, complete Pearl Lestari. I want to apply for a job at this restaurant. May you please give me the opportunity to work here" said Tiara loudly, all the words she had prepared were thrown smoothly from her tiny mouth, her hands squeezed the end of the dangling hijab covering her chest. He tried to get rid of his nervousness.
"Please sit!" The man told Tiara with his eyes still fixed on his laptop screen.
With a little hesitation, Tiara was sitting on the chair in front of the table, she slightly rewinded her chair so that their distance was not too close, now Tiara was right opposite to the man who told her to sit. On the table can be read clearly, signboard Riki Rahadian, Manager. Tiara understood now, who it was and what its position was.
Five minutes passed, Tiara was still faithfully waiting. No instructions from the manager, he is still cool with his own world in front of the laptop screen.
"Okay, you need a job?" said the manager, he closed his laptop and turned to look at Tiara who had sat quite a long time in front of him.
The manager rounded his eyes, when he saw Tiara. The pink-hooded girl, with blushing cheeks from the heat was sitting opposite her. The manager did not take his eyes off Tiara, he did not expect that the applicant in question was a veiled girl with an all-enclosed appearance.
Tiara threw her sweet smile, she nodded her head assuring the manager's question was instead silent and continued to stare at Tiara with a hard to interpret gaze.
"Yes sir, I need a job. Here's my application and CV" Tiara handed the chocolate amplifier to the manager.
"Ecummer...." Riki tried to neutralize his mood, he turned his face away for a moment because he was caught staring at Tiara.
"The job vacancies currently available are only dishwashers. Lately our restaurant is overwhelmed due to the more and more visitors" Riki spoke seriously, her manager mode is back, she spoke without opening the amplof handed by Tiara.
"If you want, you can start right now" Riki continued.
"Okay sir, I'm ready. Now I am ready to go straight to work" Tiara replied steadily, a sweet smile returning to her lips. Happy for today's achievement in getting a job. But it just returned to make the manager, fascinated. A faint smile rang on her lips as she looked at Tiara's expression.
"Okay, welcome to join. After this you will be helped by Anggia, he is in charge of the workers who handle the cleaning, including the dishwasher, I briefly call him" Riki again tried to speak normally, Riki said, he did not want to be seen if he became misbehaved because of Tiara's sweet smile.
"Anggia, I'm waiting in my room" Riki contacted his employees through the phone in his room.
Not long, Anggia came. Women with long shoulder-length hair, with semi blazer clothes and a dressy skirt above the knee complete with high heels entered the manager's room. He looked at Tiara from head to toe, leaning on his lips a sinister smile as he saw the look of Tiara far from being attractive.
"Can I help you, sir?" Anggia turned to ask the purpose of Riki calling him.
Riki explained about Tiara, and Anggia nodded, understanding what to do.
"Okay Tiara, welcome to our restaurant. Work well, may you be at home" Riki reached out his hand to congratulate Tiara, Tiara cupped both hands in front of the chest, a sign of receiving congratulations from Riki.
Riki understood, he pulled back his hand with a friendly smile. In contrast to Anggia who only raised the corner of her lips, as if mocking.
"Alhamdulillah" Tiara gave thanks slowly, but still heard by Riki, he left the room following Anggia who had already gone to the exit.
