Village Girl With a Million Dreams
Chapter 31 (Lissa's Birthday Party )
Today the friends get an invitation from Lissa. Lissa's birthday party is held annually. He would invite his schoolmates without exception.
“ San, Yu. You guys coming to Lissa's birthday party? I'm males actually”. Melani still refuses to forgive Lissa who did what she wanted to Ayu.
“ But if invited, it's best to come if there are no obstacles. I can't come, I have to work and find a place to stay”. Ayu was getting ready to carry her bag.
“ Now we rarely play Yu. You are busy once now”. Melani held Ayu's arm tightly.
“ Kalo does not follow definitely not exclamation Yu. Try asking permission one day only”. Sandra seduces Ayu into attending Lissa's party.
“ I don't want to, now I've just been given a chance Rey”. Ayu looked at her two best friends. “ I can't waste this opportunity just like San, Mel”. Ayu returns Sandra and Melani's arms.
Both of Ayu's friends know very well Ayu's condition, they must give encouragement. Ayu all this time did look fine, but really his best friend felt sorry for the situation of Ayu who had to fight alone.
“ I went well, sorry well because I couldn't come to Lissa” place. Ayu rushed over so as not to be late to get to the restaurant.
It has been 2 weeks running Ayu works at Kak Rey's place, so far there is no problem. A child who learns quickly in everything. Even Rey was satisfied with Ayu's work so far.
As soon as Ayu already felt able to leave the Pure Mbak place, he would try to find his own residence so as not to trouble Pure Mbak again.

It has been two weeks that Malik is preoccupied with projects that must be completed soon. There was no time to give him pause to enjoy his life, he had to prove to his father that he was able to complete all the work given to him.
This afternoon Malik has completed the final meeting of the project under his control. Glowing a happy look on Malik's face, he managed to finish all his work well without the slightest gap.
Now there is free time to find out the state of Ayu who cried the other day. Malik grabbed the phone on his big desk and called Aldo.
Tut's....Tut's....Tut's....
Several times Malik's phone connection was not picked up by Aldo, he also stepped foot in Aldo's room.
Crutches.... (Malik opens the door to Aldo's room)
“ Where is he, it is not usual that he leaves the room without my knowledge”. Malik goes into Aldo's room and finds out for himself what he wants. Malik's gaze stopped on Aldo's table on the left.
There are photos of Ayu at school, photos with Jofan and photos of Ayu coming in and out of the restaurant. Malik began to sort the photo with the date indicated on the photo.
His forehead creased, many questions that appeared on his head. What exactly happened to Ayu. Aldo hasn't even told her anything.
“ Sir, sorry I had a need for the Public Relations Division. Can I help you sir?”. Aldo immediately approached Malik who was seen raising his hand showing the photo to Aldo.
“ What is this?”. Malik thrust the photos in his hand to make Aldo pushed back.
Aldo analyzed the photos in Malik's hands. He didn't even know why the pictures could be on his desk. Aldo only scratched his head that was not itchy.He was confused what to say to his boss.
“ Why don't you tell me anything Al”. Malik sat in Aldo's chair, he still wanted to hear Aldo's explanation.
“I'm also confused sir, why are these photos on me. I haven't had time to find out about Ayuna”. Aldo tried to explain to Malik, himself equally confused.
Aldo knew what Malik's words meant. He had to figure out the meaning of the photos on his desk. And have to make sure Ayu is okay.

Arriving at the restaurant, Rey holds a breefing with all her employees. This time there are rich people who will use their restaurant as a food provider.
“ Ok, all gathered?”. Rey stood in front of her employees.

“ Tomorrow afternoon we will work at the home of one of the rich. The theme is a teenage girl's birthday party. You will serve and entertain all the invited guests at the party. There will be a lot of teenagers who will be a problem. You still have to be professional, keep attitude attitude attitude attitude”. Rey looked at all the employees' faces one by one.
“ Ayu and Nai, you are also participating. You help the seniors and be their right-hand man. You all understand?”.
Understand Mr ...... (Stay compact answer simultaneously )
“ Ok, you can all go back to work”. Malik left his employees first.

“ Yu.... You never did, her birthday was celebrated?”. Nai curious
“ Ever, same Mr and my Mom”. Ayu made Nai even more curious.
“ Continuously? Many invited?”. Nai's eyes were wide open. Ayu who saw Nai's expression so wanted to laugh.
“ Hehehehe. You're curious Nai?”. Ayu sat on the kitchen bench followed by Nai.
“My mom made her own cake, and my dad lit a fire from her match. We sing three Nai”.
“ Jiaaahhh... it is rich me”. Naila looked up at the eyes, her eyes far away. “ Kalo so rich kids delicious well. Want what can, want what can”. Getir indeed, Nai and Ayu currently have to fight. But they still enjoy the process, hope always there.
After school Ayu immediately rushed to the restaurant as usual. Rey never minded any clock Ayu came by. After seeing the workings of Ayu, there was a sense of guilt because at first he doubted Ayu's ability.
Ternyta Jofan was right, Ayu was no ordinary teenager. He is a hard worker, not infrequently Rey found Ayu was reading his books on the sidelines of the break.
“ All ready?”. Rey checks all the items and materials that will be brought to the event. He's a very thorough man in doing everything.
After satisfied checking, they all immediately left the restaurant. Ayu and other female employees join Rey's car, while the male employees use another car provided by Rey.
In about 30 minutes they all arrived at the party owner's house. Soon they tidied up and prepared everything.
After finishing getting ready and the food has been served with a very slick and luxurious arrangement, Rey again gathers all her employees and divides the tasks msing-each employee.
Ayu gets the task of keeping a stand of various cakes and fruits, making sure the dishes are always filled and all guests can enjoy the cakes served.
