We also provide souvenirs such as electronic devices and household furniture as gifts directly for our customers with terms and conditions" he added, his hand pointed to the left of the table with a pile of direct gifts to be given to customers.

"Lastly I thank the Garut district government and all parties who have helped the process of establishing furniture future design furniture until today can carry out the grand opening event with great fanfare. To my beloved mother, Ibu Fatimah" Akhtar paused his speech, slightly bowing his body to Bu Fatimah who was sitting in the front row of chairs precisely beside the chair he occupied with the ranks of VIP guests. Ms. Fatimah commented on the smile and nodded her head as a sign of how proud she was of her son who had now managed to get back up.

"And also friends that I am proud of, thank you for all the support provided so far" Akhtar waved at Ghifar and Ahsan who were sitting on the right side of the podium where he spoke and was greeted with a smile of pride and a wave of hands from the two of them.

"And most of all I thank someone who is always on my heart and memory. He became an important motivator in my life. You are the owner of my heart" hysterical applause and shouts from the Eve echoed throughout the furniture building where the grand opening event took place. A young businessman who was predicted to be single clearly seized the attention of many people, especially the Eve today in his speech to mention if his heart already has.

"All attendees, most recently I say happy shopping at furniture future design furniture and enjoy various special offers from us. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh" concluded Akhtar ending his speech with greetings and accompanied by a roar of applause everyone present there.

Akhtar got off the podium, and some VIP guests greeted him as a sign of congratulations on his achievement. He also returned to his seat. He circulated his gaze looking for a female figure who since he was on the podium did not show the trunk of his nose.

While in the food court area Shanum looks busy checking all the food stands that have been prepared. He makes sure every team is ready to work and serve the guests well. The mint-colored catering team uniform that Shanum bought suddenly became their differentiator with the rest of the audience.

Indri cried out hysterically when he heard the sentence Akhtar said to someone he called the owner of his heart. Shanum paused for a moment his steps, looking back at Indri who was clapping his hands and standing some distance away from him. He again stepped his feet ignoring Indri who was still screaming hysterically when Akhtar got off the podium.

Indri stopped his steps following Shanum to check all the food stands that would be opened in a few minutes. She was fascinated by Akhtar's performance on stage and clapped her hands and shouted hysterically with the other invited guests when she heard the FDF owner's romantic statement for the owner of her heart. After that he also roared wildly looking for Shanum who had been followed since then but had now disappeared from his sight.

"Steh, why is the road so bad? I've been running around since" Indri grumbled when he found Shanum in the dimsum stand. He re-examined all the utensils and the condition of the food to be served.

"Some who told the scene himself, already know again the check and ricek, even shouting" replied Shanum who chose to continue his activities checking one by one food stand rather than waiting for Indri to shout unclear according to him.

"Iih..teteh was not cool, I was listening to Aa Akhtar who was making a speech. Look at that cool tea, right?" Indri showed a screen showing a picture of Akhtar on the podium he took as Akhtar began his speech.

Akhtar's appearance in a smart-casual costume makes him look relaxed but still shows his formal impression. Although the clothes that Akhtar wears are not as formal as wearing a suit, they do not reduce his charisma and aura of leadership.

Shanum who heard Indri's words was disturbed to glance at the device whose screen was filled with photos of Akhtar. He could see the man who had been his lover looked increasingly dashing and charismatic when he was on the podium.

"So it was a great stir when Teh Babang Akhtar said thank you to someone who always reigns in my heart and memory. You are the owner of my heart..aaahhhh...melt hearts neng bang" Indri imitated the words Akhtar with his style of funny and full of jokes.

Shanum only smiled faintly in response to Indri's joke. There was something striking in his heart when he heard that Akhtar was saying that sentence. Since then, he has not focused on the event ahead. Shanum's attention was focused entirely on the food court that was about to open.

"Zinc........" Liani came suddenly half running. Since then he helped Bu Hana who was preparing the main dish stand.

"Your habits, you will fall lo this plate" Shanum who was counting the supplies of small plates served on the stand dimsum table was stunned to hold the plate with both hands for fear of falling. Liani came suddenly and directly hugged him from the side.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry..hehe.." said Liani with her sinless face.

"The main course is okay?" ask Shanum.

"Already dong neng, that's why I'm looking for you. Eh neng, you know there was no mother Mr. Akhtar nyariin you. I told you that you were checking out the dessert stand, and then Mom came because she heard someone was dancing on you. You know what's going on?" Liani changed her call to neng because she heard the story and ceu imas hang her words, making Indri so anxious because of curiosity.

"What's going on, Tea?" ask Indri curious. Indri already knew Liani as a friend of his cousin's sister. He who was easily familiar was not difficult to be able to get close to Liani.

"Hissshem...Liani tea is naughty!" indri said sulking because Liani played him.

"Ternyataa...they are both Neng, they are an alma mater of PGA dulunyakannya" explained Liani with round eyes, very enthusiastic to convey the news.

"really?'' Shanum was no less shocked when he heard the news from Liani. He also turned to look for the whereabouts of the mother who was not visible around the main menu table.

"She's there!" shouted Liani pointed at Bu Fatimah and Bu Hana who looked cool chatting at the VIP table.

The main event is over, all invited guests in the front row indicate if they are VIP guests are taking pictures together. Several local journalists were seen attending and capturing this historic moment. Akhtar who became a celebrity today, became the target of news hunters. But patiently and kindly Akhtar served the requests for photos of the news hunters as well as invited guests.

The MC invited guests to enjoy the prepared dishes. Shanum is busy overseeing all the food stands, he makes sure all the team is working well, serving wholeheartedly. This was his first project he did not want his customers to be disappointed because his guests were not satisfied with the dishes and services he provided. The good name of the mother's rice stall is at stake at this time.

Currently Shanum is in a position that should be occupied by Hana's mother, but Bu Hana seems to be busy chatting with Fatimah.

"I didn't think I'd liked your cooking all this time, Han" Ms. Fatimah was so happy to find out that Shanum was the daughter of a classmate.

"Yes Alhamdulillah" replied Ms. Hana briefly

"So why at the reunion time you didn't say that the food I brought was pesen from your rice stall?"

"No, Fatim, I'm ashamed. Let your friends know for themselves. You also now know for yourself, hhehe.." - Miss Hana humbled to end with an oddity.

They were also immersed in an increasingly violent conversation. Each tells about their own lives. Ms. Hana is concerned to find out that her best friend's household has to end because of the presence of a third person. Ms. Hana also shared her life journey after finishing school. Their last meeting was when Bu Fatimah married Mr. Furqan and soon after married by Mr. Imran.

And they only returned to meet at the reunion in the month of Ramadan was not long because of Bu Fatimah who had to immediately continue the journey to Pameungpeuk. Now for the second time they are reunited, but this meeting is felt very special by both of them. It turns out that they have been very close but do not know each other.

"So your son is all three?" ms. Fatimah asked after hearing Ms. Hana's words about her family and was answered by Ms. Hana's nod.

"Yes, I also already have a very adorable grandson" replied Bu Hana with a happy twinkle adorning her face while imagining the granddaughter who is currently left with her sister-in-law.

"You're lucky Han, I have one boy and still no sign of getting married. He is still cool with his own world, your child's marriage makes him really heartbroken. Astonished, his heart was broken by one person but he closed himself to everyone he tuh" Ms. Fatimah grumbled as she told him about the son.

"You mean did my son break your heart? ask Hana with her confused face.

"So you don't know that our kids were lovers?" Ms. Fatimah asked back and was only answered with a head by Ms. Hana.

"Darkl...." Ms. Fatimah threw her breath rough, she grabbed the drink in front of her and drank the contents that stayed a little until it was almost finished.

"Since she was a teenager, Shanum has not lived with me. She lives in a dorm and grows up to be an independent child and always seems strong. He never complained about anything he experienced to me, he always appeared cheerful in front of me. Sometimes I like to cry myself Fatim if you remember how strong my eldest son was, able to survive the difficult times that our family experienced at that time" Ms. Hana sighed pausing her words.

"Until now, he has at least shown his sadness or problems. It's just the rice stall effort all he lo who set, Alhamdulillah his hard work to fruition. Now that the mother's rice stalls are already kakoncara (famous) all over Garut mah" Bu Hana tells about Shanum by occasionally wiping tears that have not been unstoppable in the corner of his eyes.

"I also like him a lot, Neng Zahra is a dream ghost. Lucky the man who became her husband and the mother who became her father-in-law. Try Akhtar first to be married to Zahra" praised Bu Fatimah to Shanum with a regretful tone of their love story that must end because of circumstances.

"Alhamdulillah, until now his mother-in-law and sister-in-law were very good. Almost every night is always a video call" Ms. Hana has been calmer when chatting about Shanum's good relationship with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law even though her husband has long died.

"Your children are good. I'm sure you and Imran's kang educated him well" Ms. Fatimah praised sincerely.

"Thank God, Fatim. I'm so grateful. You also have a good and proud son. Look now he can already stand on his own feet. We are parents who just pray" Ms. Hana replied to the hand of Ms. Fatimah.

"Yes, I want to mate my son with his sister Neng Zahra. Can't we just find them secretly? who knows if they are interested in each other. Not even his sister, so, hahaha....." Ms. Fatimah ended her conversation about the matchmaking plan of her son and daughter Bu Hana with jokes and laughter because she felt funny with a trivial joke that she had just uttered.

Ms. Hana frowned, astonished and confused by the request of Ms. Fatimah who asked her sister Shanum to be betrothed to her son.
