That day, it was a clear Monday..

This is the second day Dinda set foot in Jakarta. His arrival to the Capital to conduct a job interview at a well-known Securities company in the Sudirman area, after having passed the previous stage. Just about 2 weeks ago, Anisa, her best friend recommended the company to Dinda. Coincidentally Anisa also works at the same Company, Dinda feels lucky to have a friend as good as Anisa who is always ready to help whenever Dinda needs. They were very close, even like brothers and sisters, even though they were only 1 year apart, but Anisa was very mature and was like a good older sister to Dinda.

Long story short, Dinda passed the interview and was able to work starting next week. He was very grateful because God made it easier to get through this stage, Dinda immediately rushed to call the mother to announce that she had been accepted to work at a famous company. Although not from a wealthy family, but Dinda's mother always prioritizes the education of her children. That's what makes Dinda study hard and determined to work hard to make her mother and sister happy. Dinda is a smart girl, she managed to pass S1 with the title Summa Cumlaude in just 3.5 years. It certainly became a pride for himself and his mother and sister.

"Mom's assalamualaikum, how's mom and sister? be healthy, right?,

Thank God Dinda passed the interview and was able to work starting next week. Thank you ma'am for all the prayers that I offer, Alhamdulillah Dinda is given ease and can get away. Anyway mother do not worry, Insya Allah Dinda will improve our economic situation, and we will be able to get away with it, I don't have to be tired of working hard anymore. Doain Dinda ya ma'am."

"Yes ma'am, Dinda will always take mother's words. Mother also rest enough and do not eat late.yes, later Dinda convey. Dinda rest first yes ma'am, wassalamu'alaikum" finally the phone was closed.

Anisa who just came home from work is seen coming with 2 boxes of food.

"Din, here I bring you some food. Guess what this is?" said Anisa

"From the smell like a stranger, it looks like a roasted chicken" Dinda replied as she received the box and opened it.

"Yups, really! 100 For you. This is the best roasted chicken in the office, you have to try it, mandatory!". They both ate together. After finishing eating, Anisa told Dinda to take a shower and get ready to go for a walk around the city using the MRT, coincidentally when the MRT was just inaugurated in Jakarta.

Dinda was excited and rushed to take a shower, while Anisa lay down on the sofa as she finished her bath and prepared to leave together.
