Love for Almira

20. Lunch

Seeing her brother sitting on top of Almira's lap, Amelia also wanted to feel like sitting on Almira's lap. Amelia whispered something into her father's ear.

“Poor Tantenya later objected to having to take two small children,” Faisal replied.

“Why, Sir?” tanya Almira who heard Faisal's conversation with Amelia.

“Amelia wants to be on me with you,” Faisal replied.

“Sini, both on the same bench Auntie,” said Almira.suddenly patting her feet.

“Do not, Mir. Heavy if his two-duamya on your lap. You are not used to holding me at once 2 children,” said Faisal.

“Nothing, Sir. Learning to have twins. Who knows after so long waiting, I was given twins,” said Almira.

“Aamiin,” says Faisal.

Rosita's mother came from inside the house.

“Lunch is ready. Let's have lunch first,” take Mother Rosita.

“Iya, Aunt,” replied Almira.

Rosita's mother saw her twin grandchildren sitting on Almira's lap.

“Eh...that's why the two are on Aunt Almira's bench? Pity her Tantenya objected,” asked Mother Rosita.

“Nothing Kok Aunt,” replied Almira.

“Teteh again practicing how to pick up twins. Who knows Teteh has twins,” chirped Nina.

“Patience, yes Mir. Who knows, you could have children later,” said Ms. Rosita.

“Aamiin yes robialamin,” says Almira.

“Come now we eat first! Later the food went cold,” invite Mother Rosita once again.

Almira leads Akbar and Amelia to the dining room. Akbar and Amelia sit next to Almira.

“Akbar sits to the right of Aunt and Amelia sits to the left of Auntie,” said Faisal arranged the sitting position of his twins.

“Albal mamnya cama Ante Amila,” says Akbar.

“Ame’ia uga mamam cama Ante Amila,” says Amelia.

“Iya, Akbar and Amelia are fed with Auntie,” Almirah replied.

“Sorry, so inconvenient Almira,” Faisal said.

“Nothing, sir. I am happy to be able to feed them,” Almira said.

Eventually Almira eats while feeding Akbar and Amelia.

After finishing eating Almira, Rafi and Nina return home.

When Almira got into the car, Faisal held the car door.

“Mir, you will search for buildings and hotel ballrooms on the internet. Find a building and ballroom that is enough to accommodate three thousand to five thousand people. Later on Monday we survey the building and ballroom, so we can directly book a place,” said Faisal.

“Good, Sir,” replied Almira.

“OK, see you Monday,” said Faisal.

“Assalamualaikum,” says Almira.

“Waalaikumsalam,” Faisal replied.

The next day Almira was really busy. He had to finish all his work before lunch break. After lunch he will go to survey the building and the hotel ballroom.

Faisal came out of his room and approached Almira.

“You have the building and ballroom that we will survey?” ask Faisal.

“Already, Sir,” replied Almira.

“Mir, if we are both or are not in an office environment, you just call me “Mas”. Don't call “Pak”,” Faisal said.

“Yes, Sir uh..Mas,” replied Almira.

“It is dong, it is good to hear,” said Faisal.

“Let's have lunch outside, after that we look around the building and ballroom,” Faisal said again.

“Good, Mas,” replied Almira.

Faisal looked at the circular clock on his wrist. Time is approaching twelve o'clock in the afternoon, soon lunch break.

“You are ready, soon we leave,” said Faisal.

“Mas, we pray dzuhur here or outside?” tanya Almira remembers now that she wants to enter the prayer time dzuhur.

“Sholat here only. Finish our prayers leaving,” Faisal replied.

“Good, Mas.”

Faisal went back into his room. Almira takes care of her desk. As usual, Almira prayed with Faisal in Faisal's room. After they finished their prayers, they went to lunch outside.

“What do you want to eat?” faisal asked while focusing on driving the car.

“Terserah Mas only,” replied Almira.

“Now is up, Mas?” ask Faisal to convince.

“Iya,” Reply Almira.

“Okay then. Don't protest, yes!” faisal.

Hearing the word “Don't Protest” scares Almira.

Where would Faisal eat? almira asked in her heart.

“Originally not a place that...” Almira did not continue his words.

“What place? How is the talk not written?” faisal asked as he turned to Almira for a moment.

“Ngak be, Mas,” replied Almira.

Faisal turned his head for a moment towards Almira.

“I know, you mean perverted place right?” faisal said while driving then Faisal turned to Almira again for a moment.

Almira just kept quiet, she didn't say anything.

“Take it easy, Mir. I am a widower but my common sense is still the way,” said Faisal.

“If I wanted to deviate, when my wife was sick I would have already interrupted. If I want to commit adultery after my wife dies I can fornicate. But that's all I didn't do because I still had faith and I was afraid of sin. Although no one is looking, God is seeing what I am doing,” Faisal said.
