Akad Shackle

Assalamu'alaikum Mother

One week of not coming to the store makes Rahma feel very long for her employees and also the atmosphere of the store. His holiday exploring Garut is over. Saturday afternoon Rahma decided to go home with Joseph who came to pick her up as promised.

Tama offers to go home together, but Rahma refuses. He did not want to trouble the man who had been taking him on vacation for a few days. Especially during the holidays Athaya continued to stick to Tama, always wanted to be with Tama and it made Rahma feel bad because it was very troublesome former boss.

"I'm happy with Athaya" Tama always said when Rahma apologized and thanked him for being willing to be bothered by her son.

Sunday Rahma used to rest. Restoring the condition of his body after one week on vacation visiting various places in Garut that he had long wanted to visit. There is nothing Rahma does but sleep, eat, sleep and eat. Athaya has been well conditioned by her brother-in-law. He went with his cousins to play in the mall, the boy seemed always cheerful. On his face did not even look exhausted at all.

Enough rest made Rahma wake up with a fresher face on Monday morning, and here she is now. Sitting on his great chair on the second floor. He was checking his sales report as long as he left his duties a week back.

Tok.dok...

The sound of knocking on the door shifted the focus of Rahma who was looking at the row of numbers on her laptop. It does not feel like lunch time is almost here, usually employees will offer a lunch menu that Rahma wants.

"Come in" he said,

"Assalamu'alaikum, Teh" one of Rahma's employees came over. Teteh is a close call of the employees who follow the call of Yusuf and Maya to Rahma.

"Wa'alaikum hail, what's Fit?" tanya Rahma stopped her activity, she stretched out her hands while ************** new fingers regardless of laptop keyboard.

"There was a guest of Teh, this is the third time he has come to meet you. Previously he came right after just going to Garut and the second two days ago he came shopping and asked for it too even though I had told him that a new teteh would enter today. And now he's coming again, he said he wants to offer cooperation with his company "clearly Rahma's employees who seem cheerful because the guests who come to meet Rahma are like moodboosters to them,

"Male or female?" ask Rahma relax, please,

"Male, Tea" replied Rahma's employee with a pinched smile.

"Alright, I'll meet him downstairs. You just prepare a drink and some cake for our guests" said Rahma, she also tidied up the laptop and some paper scattered on her desk. Rahma will meet her guests below. Currently in one corner of the store has been equipped with several tables and chairs for visitors who want to enjoy cake and a cup of tea.

"Good Tea" replied the employee, smiling and leaving Rahma's room.

"Include me Arga Darmawan" a tall, handsome man dressed in a full suit stelan stood up as Rahma walked towards where she was. He reached out his hand and mentioned his name when they were already facing off.

"I am Rahma" Rahma smiled and slightly nodded her head, she cupped both hands in front of her chest to reply to the hand of the man before her, the man understood and smiled.

"I've been here several times on the recommendation of one of my clients who has already subscribed at the central cake shop and it turns out I know the owner" Arga began to explain the chronology of his arrival,

"So this father is a friend of my brother-in-law's?" asked Rahma enthusiastically, the article a few weeks back the sister-in-law told me if there was a friend who wanted to work together for a dessert at her restaurant.

"Yes, and he advised me to come here" Arga nodded his head,

Many new cake recipes are specifically tested only in stores that Rahma manages. His sister-in-law motivated Rahma to make innovations so that it could become a hallmark of the store itself.

At this time the development of the store continued Rahma did, vacant land that is still available next to the store is used to make production space, in some corners that seemed to spare placed a small table with two chairs. Not a few buyers who enjoy cake directly there. Rahma also added several employees to help her in the production and consumer services.

"By the way how long has Rahma Tea opened this shop?" after successfully making an agreement that will be continued with the signers of the letters at the next meeting, their chat turned to a more relaxed topic.

"Alhamdulillah has been going two years," Rahma brought closer the cake served by her employees on the table for her guests to enjoy,

"Please enjoy her cake sir" bargained Rahma kindly in honor of her guests.

"Thank you, but can you not call me sir?" said Arga grabbed her tea cup with a gaze that did not switch from the owner of the sweet face hooded tosca, Rahma just smiled in response.

"Beautiful" muttered Arga in the heart.

Kumandang adzan dzuhur along with the parking of a car in front of the store. Tama opened the seatbelt and for a moment ensured the condition of his hair and face through the rearview mirror hanging above his head.

"Perpects!" she said she smiled in a knot imagining her meeting with the woman who had filled her heart and days.

After the meeting Tama immediately rolled into the cake shop Rahma to be able to see directly the angel of his heart. He has an appointment with Athaya to pick up the adorable boy from his school, Tama intends to ask Rahma for permission first.

Actually he could have gone straight to Athaya school, but two days was enough for him to resist the longing, yesterday he only communicated with Athaya through Joseph's mobile phone, he said, hope the face she always misses appears on her phone screen.

But unfortunately, almost an hour he listened to Athaya chattering after playing from the mall with her cousins, the angel of heart never appeared. But, Tama was calm enough to know from Athaya if Rahma was resting all day yesterday.

When opening the car door, Tama's smile instantly faded. From the glass wall of the new shop seen by him if the two people who were sitting in the corner of the store is Rahma with a man, although only visible back but Tama sure if. A jealous aura instantly ambushed his heart. Tama also remembered his conversation with Yusuf, if in Jakarta there were some men who were approaching Rahma.

"It can't be allowed" he muttered, quickly getting out of his car and closing the door of his car with enough force, he strode gallantly towards the entrance of the store.

Her gaze gradually fixed on one corner of the store where Rahma and the man were chatting, seen Rahma smiling towards the man. Making heat instantly spread throughout his body.

Without hesitation Tama walked over to the two people who sounded like they were joking.

"Assalamu'alaikum Mommy.." Tama greeted with a sweet smile adorning her handsome face, a smile that always melts.

Rahma gasped to see who came by calling her mother.
