Right at 9 pm Sardin and his family depart from port B to port city B to get to town S using Kerinci ship.

Kila, big brother will miss you later, big brother really hope you can keep your promise to big brother. Brother does not want to hear the news if you are close to other men, like you are close to brother.

Sardin sat down while looking at the port which is now getting further away from the ship, because the ship had departed from the port.

The journey from the port in his village to the port city of S takes three days and two nights. Unlike the journey from port to port city A, it only takes a day overnight.

.. ..

At dawn a cold atmosphere woke Halim from her deep sleep. He glanced at the clock on the wall hanging inside his room at 4:50.

"Not long into the dawn prayer, I should take a bath first, even though the atmosphere is cold like this." he murmured.

"This coldness, not as cold as the atmosphere of dawn in the garden. Is Sarmi up there, too, Dad?" Halim was still muttering to herself.

He got up and stood up from his comfortable bed and he picked up his towel and toiletries, and then he came out of the room to the bathroom near the kitchen.

After he finished bathing, he prepared to perform his Fajr prayer service. After finishing his worship, Halim went to the front of the house to breathe fresh morning air.

Apparently when he got in front of him he saw Denis was already sitting casually in his chair. Halim greeted him, "Denis, you're up apparently" he said, sitting his ass in a chair beside Denis.

"Eh Bang! Yes Denis has been awake since, Brother has been praying at dawn?" ask Denis to remind.

"Yes Alhamdulillah, Abang had prayed before here." said Halim.

"Now we'll be down and open shop, get ready!" said Denis.

Halim took a deep breath. Denis noticed, he smiled mockingly, "Why Bang? Brother groggy yah?" ask Denis in a little laugh.

"Hum, slightly. This is my first experience." said Halim.

"Just relax Bang! Gradually you will get used to it, if you are used to it you will like it." Denis said while patting Halim's shoulder slowly. "Come on Bang, it's time we go!" take Denis.

"What about the others?" halim asked while looking into the house.

"Each of them has a schedule." said Denis as he stood up from his seat. Halim also stood up, and he also stepped up when Denis stepped. They walk in tandem.

Not long after that, they arrived at the shop. Denis opened the lock and key in the middle of the door, and then he lifted the door up. Denis began to take out one by one the items on display outside, while Halim he only noticed. But he wasn't feeling good either because he was just looking around.

"Denis, what am I supposed to do? When I just saw you working alone?" halim felt sad.

Denis laughed, "Hahahaha Brother need not hesitate, for today only let me arrange and help you maintain sales, also later when saving later. Let me work alone, Brother just pay attention to the way I arrange these items" he explained while pointing to the items to be arranged.

"And after tomorrow, my brother works here." he continued.

"All right!" halim answered while raising his hand. "I will watch you today so that tomorrow will not be wrong in making it" he continued.

"OK." said Denis with a friendly smile. He reassembled the items and Halim noticed Denis' every move.

"Thank God be done too!" denis said happily while clapping his hands. "Now we're sitting on the bench there, Bang!" he said again saying while pointing at the bench in question.

They sat together on a bench that was reserved for them. "Well while sitting around and waiting for the shopping person to come, you can look back at the position of the goods. Examples of Marina handbody where there, shampoo place there" he said again teach Halim.

Halim nodded. He looked at the shelves one by one. He memorized all the locations of the goods. When there are shopping people come, Halim is very attentive to how to be gentle to the buyer, and how to seduce him to buy the item.

Thank God by only paying attention once now Halim can help Denis serve buyers. And he doesn't feel awkward in serving buyers, he also learns from Denis how to serve super duper nagging buyers.

"Well, it turns out you're pretty clever, Bang!" praise Denis. As he sees how Halim serves customers and easily picks up items on his shelf.

"You're smart, Denis!" sahut Halim's. "I'm just learning from you" he continued, patting Denis' shoulder gently.

"I'm sure you'll be a successful trader as well, like Anton's brother" Denis said.

"Aamiin" said Halim, accepting Denis' prayer. "Thank you Bang! May you also be a successful trader in the future" he continued to pray for Denis success.

Denis chuckled, "I don't intend to be a merchant, Bang!" he said while smiling wryly.

Halim looked at him confused, "Why? You're pretty good at this, why aren't you interested?" tanyakanya.

"I'm just here to help my brother! I'd rather work for the biggest companies, if necessary I want to build my own" Denis said passionately.

"Aamiin, may your ideals be achieved." said Halim praying and encouraging Denis.

"Aamiin," Denis agreed to Halim's prayer. "May we both succeed in the future" he continued saying as he extended his hand forward, Halim welcomed Denis' hand happily. " Aamiin, may we both be successful!"

.. ..

While in Sarmi's garden the arrival of the neighboring guests of his garden, they chatted with each other well. And poured out their hearts, especially to Ayu herself because of Sarmi, she did not talk too much about her personal life to people.

"Oh yes Sar, I haven't seen your husband in days, where is he?" ask Ayu curiously.

Sarmi smiles.

I had guessed before that you only wanted information right, that's why you came here! After this you will spread it to people. Huh! his inner.

"What?" Ayu is surprised, "Your husband to town A? You know, there are so many comfort women who like to entertain men who need a touch, you know!" he continued to speak to provoke Sarmi.

Sarmi was silent for a moment, she was moody but in the next second she emitted her sweet smile on her lips.

"I believe in the love of my husband, he will be fine there, and will look after ourselves for us here" she said softly but very firmly.

"You know, your husband's brother why he left his first wife? Because in the city of A was he seduced with such a woman." said Ayu still provokes Sarmi.

Sarmi smiled wryly, "God willing, I believe in my husband" she said in defense of her husband.

I believe in you, my husband Halim. I know how our love is. I'm sure our love is so strong, even though we're so far apart. Our love will not change. I'm sure of that, very sure! inner Sarmi.

Sarmi was too lazy to hear every sentence spoken by Ayu. But he also did not have the heart to expel him.

It was a coincidence that Sarmi heard the sound of the call of her youngest child.

"Mama. mama.." cried Endang.

"Sorry Ayu, it looks like my son is awake. I have to see it first." said Sarmi while looking at her son.

Ayu also understood with the intention of Sarmi's words. He said goodbye, "Sarmi, then go see your son! I'm going home first, I've been here too long."

"Oh yeah, be careful, Ayu. We'll have another conversation sometime" Sarmi said.

Ayu stood up from her seat, Sarmi also stood up.

"Dad I'll walk here again, oh yes don't take my heart" he said.

"Ah, it's okay." he said. Ayu has already

returned to his garden after hearing Sarmi's speech. And Sarmi, he went to see his son.

"Why baby?" sarmi asked kindly.

"Mama, papa's endong! Endong papa's..."

Sarmi smiled, trying to persuade her youngest child. "Darling, I forgot to make money!" he said while stroking Endang's head.

"Father am."

"God willing, papa will come to pick us up soon, baby!" Sarmi still persuades his son who is looking for the whereabouts of his papa.

"Will you come quickly?" tanyakanya. Endang nodded. "Then, Endang enough pray papa success there and soon come to pick us up, ok?" said again.

"Hu um.."

After that, Endang went back to gather with Yuli and Ita who were playing with Hardin and his grandmother.

Thankfully so far, children can still be persuaded easily. Huff! Husband, I really miss your figure here, near me and near the children. Do you miss me my husband too?

Sarmi sat down while looking at her children who were engrossed in playing with her grandmother.

.. ..

On the other hand, Halim also suddenly missed his wife and children.

I miss you, my wife! I miss our kids too. How are you guys doing now? Are you guys all right? Is your firewood still in stock, my wife? Oh to be honest my heart is so empty without you by my side.

Halim.

Halim's daydream came to a halt as she felt a hand perched on her shoulder. "What are you thinking?" denis asked curiously, as he had since noticed Halim who had been silent ever since he had finished eating his lunch.

"Oh, no! Em is nothing." replied Halim while scratching her non-itchy head.

"Oh yeah, in three hours we'll be closed. Tomorrow, are you ready to go down and open yourself?" ask Denis again.

"Hum, God willing I'm ready!" sahut Halim firmly.

"Ah, I really like the spirit that is in you" said Denis praised Halim.

"Thank you, oh yeah, then where are you going to open it?" ask Halim curious.

"I'll help those in the big stores" Denis said, pointing to the store a little further ahead.

"Oh" said Halim briefly.

Didn't feel the time went so fast, now it's 5 pm, time they close the sale.

As was the case earlier this morning, now Halim only noticed Denis who kept the items on display outside earlier brought into the store.

After entering the goods, Denis pulled the door and locked the middle door and then he put the padlock and locked it. Then he gave the key to Halim.

Because starting tomorrow Halim himself will open the sale. After that he invited Halim to come home.
