100 Days of Being a Widow

46 Jean Part 2

Rania was wrong. He pretended not to understand Jean's words just now.

"Jean, after coming home from Singapore, your sense of humor is getting higher!"

Said Rania trying to melt the atmosphere so stiff after Jean expressed her intention to propose to Rania after her Iddah period was over.

"I'm not kidding. I'm serious, Rania".

Said Jean while putting his gaze on Rania's eyeballs. Rania is getting all wrong. He can't say anything.

"This is not the time to seduce me, Jean!"

Jean smiled and breathed.

"Okay.Sorry Rania"

Said Jean distancing herself from Rania.

"Jean, tell me now what should I do?"

"help me, Rania. We're gonna start something new. We start from zero. So, I want you to make some unique product recipes for our products later. While I will create a marketing concept that is in accordance with current market conditions".

Rania seemed to understand what she had to do. After returning from work, as usual he will take care of his two children, tidying up the house, washing clothes while his children study or do PR. Rania's children are used to learning on their own. After making sure her house is clean and tidy, her children sleep, Rania will rush to open the laptop loaned by Jean. As a graduate, Rania is good at operating laptops.

He created a concept map of production. Create menus and recipes like never before. He does it every day. In a matter of a week, has collected almost fifty menus of bread and modifications of traditional snacks. He saw the market opportunity from this traditional snack menu. It is very rare to make traditional snacks, why not try to make with new modifications. As he did on the famous Dawet Bumiayu drink recipe with Javanese sugar and its fragrance, it is combined with the current concept of boba. So he made Dawet resemble Boba. In terms of ingredients are different, Boba is made from starch kanji, but Rania makes it from glutinous rice flour. The shape in print resembles the shape of the original Boba. Besides being easier to digest, Boba from glutinous rice flour also feels more legit. It also adds color to Boba so that it looks beautiful and attractive. Savory coconut milk sauce and the aroma of diced jackfruit, adds to the aesthetic look of Boba ala Rania. All the recipes he tested at home, then he took photos. He learned photography by self-taught through YouTube, the results are not inferior to professional photographers.

"Jean, I want us to meet outside"

Rania sends a short message to Jean.

"Okay. at Cafe Dearsea yes, so it can be in the meeting room"

"alright. But I brought the kids"

"get ready. later let my driver Dodo take care of the kids playing in the pool"

***

It only takes half an hour to get to the cafe Dearsea. Rania's children are very enthusiastic because they can see hundreds of species of fish in the giant aquascepe accompanied by Mr. Dodo, Jean's driver. While Rania is in the restaurant concept meeting room.

Rania took out her laptop and began to explain the concept of the bakery that she was going to start. Similar to Latifa Group where there is a bakery and also a large restaurant. However, here the concept is more minimalist, contemporary and instagramable . Rania also makes birtday party packages, engagement, and other mini-parties. He also showed photos of food and drink he had tested in his kitchen and in photos using a cell phone camera.

Jean sees great potential in the concept that Rania has created. After eating with her children, Jean takes Rania to a large mall. Rania recalled the time she was invited by Jean to buy a cell phone to replace her broken phone.

"Jean..we want to buy something else?"

Rania was a little confused. Because after seeing the photos of Rania's shots. Jean just said it was good. Then the food is served, and Jean invites Rania and her children to eat.

Jean headed to a Canon Camera counter. Rania knows Jean's gonna buy a camera.

"Romania"

Jean calls Rania who is accompanying her son to play in the timezone. Jean waved her hand gesturing for Rania to head towards him.

"Sir Dodo back again yes..."

"Ready neng"

Rania approached Jean.

"Yes..."

Jean gave a Canon PIXMA iP2770 camera to Rania.

"Jean is expensive"

"Make good picture quality Rania. From tomorrow, your hours will be reduced. You can go home early. I'll teach you about photography"

Rania looked at Jean. He didn't expect to meet a man as good as Jean. What a dream husband Rania. Too much hope for that, he thought.

***

The next day, Rania came home early. Three o'clock in the afternoon, from the previous one at five o'clock in the afternoon. Rania went home with Jean.

"Jean, who are they?"

Rania asks when Jean is not alone.

"yes this is Mas Timo and Yudi. They I asked to slightly renovate the kitchen in your pavilion, Ran.

Renovation of Rania murmur.

***

Upon arrival at the Pavilion, Rania was busy helping Azka with the task of making meronce tasks, so as not to pay attention to the kitchen space that was being repaired by two artisans and Jean as her foreman.

Zidan whines to get a drink. Rania got up and headed for the kitchen. How surprised he was when he saw the kitchen room turned into a very neat minimalist kitchen. Some parts are arranged like a master chef's kitchen.

Rania was amazed and moved...

"Jeandra, is this really true?"

Rania's eyes glazed over as she watched her kitchen change as she dreamed.

Jean approached Rania. Embracing Rania's shoulder.

"How do you like it?"

Speak softly to Jean.

Rania is made to bloom, and if this is the case, who does not fall for a Jean.

"Jean, you're overreacting..."

"It's just a habit..."

answer meredek.

"I don't deserve this!"

Rania

"Prospective CEO Rania Bakery is very fast"

Jean replied with a serious face.

Rania...

"That's, Jean?"

"from this moment on, Rania is working. You have great potential to grow. Soon I will teach you how to use the camera, and shooting techniques. Setting the place and plating the food is okay. Moreover, the technique takes my heart, you're the champion"

"What the hell is Jean...."

Rania pinches Jean's stomach. Then they laughed together.

***

"Mama.kok lama take a drink...Zidan aus ma...."

Call Zidan with the typical language of children who cannot speak completely.

The call from Zidan shocked Rania. He realized that he meant to go to the kitchen to get a glass of water for Zidan.

Oh. love is so.

His presence is always uncertain

Make a rainbow, to forget the rain during it

Pov Rania :

Jean, you have dared to enter my heart. Please don't dare to leave.

Don't make me miss

Just to get word from you.

Jean, I'm not a girl anymore

You should always remember that

When you accepted me

Accept my children.

Love them as you love me

And start fighting for my heart.

I, Rania, accepted your proposal

Wait until 100 days have passed

and I'm ready to have you

Rania, though,

Seriate
