Love for the Mentari

Oxtail Soup

I continued to check the cleanliness of all corners of the room until the toilet and the front of the stall

"Bu Riri want me to make you a drink?" Asked Angga behind me who had noticed him

I thought for a moment while looking at him

"Mmmmmm-mom..Try to make one creation of any drink that you think is delicious and can be sold here"

Angga's smile expands "I can freely wear all the ingredients that are bu?"

"Can, but prioritize the materials that are still in stock. I'll sell one different drink creation every day to manage our stock"

"You mean like this month's special drink?"

"That's right" I smiled at him

"Ok, just a minute, ma'am"

Angga seems busy making my request

I waited for him while checking the ornamental plants around the stall

"Bu Riri here is the drink, please" Angga put the drink on the table close to where I stand

"What drink is Angga?" I noticed the pink color of the drink

"Soda happy mom, our stock of soda and Coco pandan syrup is still a lot" he said rather hesitantly

I sat down on the chair and tried the drink prepared by Angga.

"Fresh, suitable for hot weather lately. The dose is right, not too sweet so it does not make eneg. Per today I enter a promo menu of happy soda for the special drink menu this month. I'll make the flyer right now. Help me put it on the front menu"

"Good Ma'am" Angga's face looked delighted

"Oh yes later make me another one wear a garrison yes let it be beautiful. As before do not need to stir first, I want to take photos for social media updates. Thank you Angga"

"Sama-sama Miss Riri, I will inform you next door that the happy soda is ready"

Riri nodded and rushed back to the office to make a flyer that will be installed as soon as possible for noon

It did not feel like it was noon, the Flyer he had promised Angga was finished. And it is currently being installed on the menu and also affixed to the menu board behind the cashier table. Lisa used to go out for lunch.

He also did not forget to update on some social media applications, which he made specifically for the Priboemi stall a week ago

His phone rang, he saw Sugi make a call

"Hi my dear my love." I replied excitedly.

He heard Sugi exhaling like he was laughing when he heard the answer

"Darling, I had lunch there"

"But we ate it at the office yeah, Lisa's out for lunch"

"No problem, ten minutes to go"

"OK"

I put my phone on the table and waited for Sugi to arrive

Not how long he arrived with Mr. Doni who as usual followed him from behind

"What do you want to order?" ask me while sitting next to him on the sofa

"I'm the oxtail soup"

"Ok I'll order you, if it's Doni?"

"I'm fried rice only Mom"

"Well, wait a minute I call first"

Riri picks up the phone on her desk "Rista, I'm Riri. Want to order two oxtail SOPs, two white rice equal special fried rice yes"

"...."

"Drink I want two happy sodas. Please bring it here Ris. Thanks" he put the phone back

"Where did you come, baby?" I asked him while sitting at his place next to him again

"I came from reviewing a new property project in the North"

Riri nodded

Mr. Doni seemed to move from his seat and went to the bathroom in the back

"Darling, tomorrow....Silvi will be back, my mother managed to persuade her" Sugi said carefully

"Keep, do we need to pretend to break up? Well who knows, that way he showed his true character faster"

Sugi's face turned cold, he looked at me sharply

"That's never gonna happen! Who could guarantee he quickly showed his true face after that?? There's no, is there?"

"My mother asked him to help with one of our projects. We just need to be vigilant at this time. Mr Jon asked permission today, he told you?"

"Already, he said two more days can be awake again"

"Don't worry every day I've also told Mr. Doni's men to keep watch from a distance so as not to look too flashy"

I nodded "ok"

Mr. Doni is back and sitting on the couch in front of us.

The food I ordered finally came. Rista's face looked rather shocked when he saw Sugi sitting there holding my hand tightly

He put the tub on the table and rather clumsily lowered the food on it one by one.

I noticed Rista's movements while holding back a laugh. When Rista finished looking at me with a face full of questions.

"Thank you Rista" I said with a smile

"...l.e..Iyah together Miss Riri, I went back to the side" he seemed to step in a hurry until finally his back was not seen again

"Surely he was surprised to see you here, where day-after-day handrails like this hahahaha" I chuckled as I raised my hand that was in his grasp

Mr. Doni also smiled at his smile

"He recognized me? Why indeed? Let him know that you are mine" Sugi replied as he slowly let go of his grasp and then pulled a bowl of hot butute soup closer to him.

"Since your ex-boyfriend's scandal, who doesn't recognize you?"

"Ck!" He chuckled while eating his food quietly

I did the same thing, enjoying my lunch in a relaxed manner

"Enak Bu, the fried rice really fits my taste" said Mr. Doni, he was seen stuffing a large spoonful into his mouth

"Wah I'm happy to hear it, later if the portion is less can be added again sir" said I am happy

Mr. Doni nodded while chewing, he seemed unable to say a word because his mouth was full.

"The tail soup is also good" Sugi smiled, the food in front of him was almost clean

"The tail soup is indeed the main food of this stall, well of course it must be delicious dong" I replied proudly

"Over the week, what portion of the average oxtail soup has been sold?"

"The average of 50 servings per day, I was also surprised to see the response of people who came on the first day of opening. Maybe because I had time to deploy the flyer to the office complex up ahead, a few days earlier. But seeing the number of people who want to come for lunch on the first day makes me stubborn and excited"

"Maybe because it tastes good and the price is affordable. The name of the most important food business is the taste of the food then the price problem. Customers who are hard to get are customers who come back after trying for the first time"

"Dad right, I'm grateful that the average person who's tried to eat here has come back"

"Nice, now just keep the quality of the food and service"

"Dad I know"

We noticed some people passing by in front of the office. Some people were seen carrying packages of food while sipping a pink drink inside a medium-sized plastic glass. Sugi suddenly stood up and stepped out.

"A lot next door, what promo do you have?" He looked at me in astonishment

"Not so special, just a happy soda. I'm selling it not too expensive for this month's promo drinks as well as balancing the stock"

"There is no promo?"

"Yet, maybe next month start again. When the stall opens, all food will be 15% off for three days"

Sugi nodded with a smile

"Bu Riri is great sir?!" Said Mr. Doni while giving his thumb

"Of course, the wife-to-be Dirut hehehe" he nudged my arm while laughing

"Ah sir Doni could have, I'm still far from great sir. There's still a lot to learn"

"What matters is that all this busyness doesn't make you depressed" Sugi looked at me

"I enjoy it dear" I replied while looking back at her

"Later tonight I'll stay"

"Dad, just come as usual"

"Thank you Miss Riri for lunch" Mr. Doni stood up

"Together with Doni"

"I wait in the car sir" said Mr. Doni back while stepping quickly without waiting for a response from Sugi

""Ok, then I'll go first. I'll see you tonight. Thanks for lunch" he stroked my cheek with his thumb. I Love you"

I nodded "I love you too" I replied with a big smile

I looked at his back away towards the car that was ready to wait for him in front. Usually, a car that wants to visit this office can directly park its car right in front of the office. But now this office guest has to park his car a bit far because lately many come to lunch in his stall.
