The next day, about thirty minutes before Beth leaves for work, according to the schedule that Vynt had been sharing via chat last night, Rizzi had gone to Beth's house to pick up the girl and take her to DAE-HO Trip. At least that was Rizzi's plan that morning.
In contrast to his arrival last night without preparation, this time he came with a very mature preparation both mentally and others. Because for Rizzi, this is the first step to taking her relationship with Beth in a more serious direction.
After once again screwing through the rearview mirror of his car, Rizzi took a deep breath once and nodded her head steadily. He then got out of his car and walked confidently to the front fence of Beth's house where the bell button was.
Rizzi first breathed the morning air strongly. Fill his lungs with a soothing coolness before he finally releases them back in one gust.
After feeling calmer, Rizzi then pressed the bell button behind the fence carefully.
Ting...Kegs...
Ting...Kegs...
So excited, Rizzi until reflexes hit the bell twice in a row.
"Yes, yahoo!!!"
A voice from inside the house responds to a bell call made by Rizzi.
Before long, a middle-aged woman with long, wavy hair appeared who looked friendly. Rizzi doesn't remember seeing her during a visit to Beth's house. He took a step back to make room between himself and the woman.
"Who?" ask the woman.
"I'm Rizzi, Beth's friend, Auntie!" rizzi replied politely as she extended her hand to shake hands with the woman. "I'm going to go get Beth to work!"
The woman replied to Rizzi's hand while saying her own name, "Maria! Beth's mom! You friend what is my daughter? Work buddy?" said the woman who turned out to be Beth's mother.
"Ng, no!" at once Rizzi was confused to describe her relationship with Beth. He folded his lips into his mouth while scratching his head which suddenly became itchy.
"Then??? I don't remember ever meeting you before!" Beth's mother tilted her head to scan Rizzi's figure from head to toe.
"Anu, my best friend Keira's husband! I've known Beth since Keira and her husband weren't married. I also accompanied Beth yesterday home from Korea after attending Vynt Dae-Ho's wedding."
That's how Rizzi finally explained her relationship with Beth in front of the girl's mother. He folded his lips after finishing his answer.
While Ms.Maria seemed to squint her eyes suspiciously. "I know Keira well, but I don't know her husband yet. All I know is the late Argha, Keira's lover who was said to be the sister of Keira's current husband!"
"Rubber, Auntie! I was a childhood friend of the late Argha Pratama and his older brother, Tyo Pratama, who is now Keira's husband and father of baby Keira Permata!" Rizzi.
After hearing Rizzi's detailed explanation, Ms.Maria no longer squinted her eyes.But now her facial expression was even illegible. Rizzi who initially felt mentally prepared to face Beth today had now turned one hundred and eighty degrees into so nervous.
Her first meeting with Beth's mother this morning was completely beyond her prediction. Because all this time, he had never had the opportunity to meet Ms.Maria even though he had several times he came to Beth's house for various reasons. It was as if she was rarely home or did not even live there.
"Okay, come in!" ms. Maria said at the end.
Rizzi slightly breathed a sigh of relief at Mrs.Maria's invitation. A little, that means, Beth's mother believed her to be a friend who had known Bethsa Putry for a long time.
"Because his legs are still a little crooked, so his preparation before leaving for work is a little longer than usual. Please understand!" ms. Maria's face was friendly again.
The woman then opened the front door of her house for Rizzi but Rizzi politely instead asked Ms.Maria to enter first with an inviting hand gesture.
Ms.Maria smilingly received polite treatment from Rizzi. He then went into his own house and was followed by Rizzi behind him who then closed the front door of Beth's house.
"That's why I plan to take her today to her office, Aunt Maria!"
"But I seem to have heard Beth made a deal with Nak Said!"
"Beth doesn't know that I have plans to get him to work today, Tan. It's my own initiative, but it's also Vynt Dae-Ho's mandate as Beth's superior." she replied more calmly.
Mrs. Maria mangosteen, "Please sit down first then, Son Rizzi! I'll get Beth aunty!"
A few minutes later, Ms.Maria reappears with Beth.
"Lho, Rizzi! What am I waiting for Said, so you're the one who came?" ask Beth wonder.
"Morning, Non!" greet Rizzi kindly.
"Say my mama, you want me to go to work?" ask Beth again while sitting in front of Rizzi while Ms.Maria appears to enter her kitchen.
"Yes." replied Rizzi briefly while showing off her sweet smile.
"But I made an agreement with Said!" reply Beth honest.
"Said won't be your nganter, but me!"
"Can't we?!" beth's forehead shriveled.
Rizzi sighed softly. He pulled out his phone and started calling Vynt.
📱RIZZI RIYANT'S
Hello, Vynt. Beth Kanya does not believe that if I love the mandate to nganter him work.
📱VYNT DAE - HO
Where's son? Here I am talking directly to him!
📱RIZZI RIYANT'S
Okay, wait!
"Niihh, Vynt wants to talk to you!" Rizzi thrusts her phone at Beth who is gawking.
Doubtful Beth grabbed the phone and placed it on one of her earlobes. Meanwhile, Ms.Maria is seen bringing a cup of tea to Rizzi.
Rizzi briefly thanked Beth's mother before Ms.Maria returned. Rizzi also slowly drank the tea that had just been served to him while looking straight at Beth who was talking to Vynt via her cellphone.
"Hello? Vynt?" said Beth.
📱VYNT DAE - HO
Hoe, Beth! Said I'm forbidden to pick you up. Instead you should go to the office with Rizzi! If not, then you do not need to work. I can really entertain you until your feet heal and I told Mbak Haning to replace the task lo ngehandle Singapore group tickets. How was???
Beth is stunned for a moment, but the threat seems to be very powerful against the girl. Beth really wanted to finish her own booking of Singapore group tickets because besides this was her first chance to hold a group ticket, the incentives promised by the company were not playing games.
Beth was immediately devastated by Vynt's threat, considering the plan she had made after she got an incentive from the group ticket.
"okay! I'll leave with Rizzi at your request!" answer later.
📱VYNT DAE - HO
Good girl!!! That's my new best friend! Turn the phone back to Rizzi, I'll talk to her again!
Though Vynt is conscious, she cannot see his movements, but Beth nods her head reflexively. He then returned Rizzi's phone to the owner.
📱RIZZI RIYANT'S
📱VYNT DAE - HO
Doi agreed to go with you, man! Next is just your effort to use the time that exists!
📱RIZZI RIYANT'S
Okay, Vynt. Gracias!
📱VYNT DAE - HO
Sipp!!!
"So? We're leaving now?" rizzi asks Beth after she saves her phone.
Beth mengangguk pasrah. Ia lalu memanggil ibunya untuk berpamitan. Ny. Maria mengantar keduanya hingga ke depan pagar. Matanya tak lepas dari gerak gerik Rizzi ketika membantu Beth berjalan perlahan hingga masuk ke dalam mobilnya.
"Tante, excuse me for taking Beth first! Thanks for the tea!" rizzi said before he got in the car.
"Auntie titip Beth yes! Be careful on the road!" reply Ny.Maria.
"Okay, Tan!" rizzi replied straightforwardly.
"I'm leaving first, Ma!" pamit Beth once again when Rizzi has started the engine of her car.
Ms.Maria only gave a brief nod, but even so, her maternal instinct was already able to pick up on the signal that her daughter and the man had an interest in each other.
But judging how Rizzi behaved before him from the start. Quietly, Madame. Maria had already given a plus point against Rizzi even before Beth's mother knew who Rizzi Riyant was.

@Digdaya Family Home,
Meanwhile.at the Rizzi family's house. After the head of the family aka Pak Tirta Digdaya left for his office, the children and his wife began to gossip about the youngest son in their family, Rizzi Riyant.
Although accompanying her daughter's son breakfast in the dining room, but Ms. Rukmini just sat in the middle seat that is usually occupied by the husband while enjoying his chamomile tea. She had breakfast with her husband.
"So one of you has absolutely no idea of Rizzi's behavior lately?" ask Mrs.Rukmini to the three people sitting at her table.
And the three then shook their heads compactly.
"Last met me right before leaving for Korea, Mi. I asked for souvenirs but he said he might not make a shopping spree because it did not last long there!" rozmyta Beber. "But I didn't ask him what he wanted to go to Korea. Why did he go there, Mi?" rozmyta asked her Mom.
"To Mami's knowledge, attended the wedding reception of his friend." replied Mrs.Rukmini with a chin-backed.
"Yes, Mi. Vynt Dae-Ho's wedding. Her only child is the owner of Dae-Ho Trip." replied Sofia-Istri from Reinka Sakti, Rizzi's first brother.
"Lho do you know?" ask Mrs.Rukmini.
"Do you know where?" Rozmyta was also curious.
While Reinka who incidentally Sofia's own husband did not say anything. The man just turned to his wife.
"Because my family is a VVIP member on Dae-Ho Trip so my parents were invited to the Vynt Dae-Ho wedding reception held here. And at the time of the event, they met Rizzi who ngaku equally the bride and groom. So do not rule out the possibility that Rizzi was also invited at the reception in Korea, because the Dae-Ho family did hold a reception in two countries" explained Sofia.
"Hmmm, panteess!" sahut Rozmyta then put a piece of toast with sarikaya jam into his mouth.
While Reinka and Ms. Rukmini looked just beards. They did not know about the news because neither business networks nor social relations had anything to do with the Dae-Ho family.
"Naahhh, since returning from Korea he became moody. Every day badmood. Mami thought that at first she was also heartbroken as usual. But this is going on longer than usual. My mom is scared...." Mrs.Rukmini hung up her sentence.
The three people at the table then stopped their breakfast activities to focus on the Mami.
"Fear what the hell, Mi??? Don't make parno!!!" ru Rozmyta.
Reinka and his compact wife nodded quickly at the nagging second child in the family.
"Mami takuuuttt.if Rizzi...." Mrs.Rukmini again hesitated to continue her sentence.
"Iihhh, what the hell, Mi! Just make a gem!!!" this time Rozmyta completely put back the piece of toast she had almost devoured onto the plate.
His appetite evaporated already after seeing the turmoil on the look on the face of the Mami. Sofia also follows the behavior of her sister-in-law. He had also released his grip on his tablespoon and had even finished wiping his mouth with napkin. A sign that the woman will not continue her breakfast again.
Unlike the husband who is still calm and continues his breakfast with elegance.
"Mommy's scared, Rizzi got Corona while in Korea!" finally Mrs.Rukmini finished her sentence.
"HAAAHHH, Seriously, Mi?????" pekik Rozmyta and Sofia with compact.
While Reinka also this time can not be indifferent to the words of the mother. He automatically gawked just like his wife and sister, only without shouting following the two.
"Newly alleged Mami aja siihhh!!!" ms.rukmini.
"Why did Mami expect that? Did Rizzi come home from Korea with a fever? Coughing? Cold dry? A cold? Dizzy or short of breath perhaps?" cecar Rozmyta to the Mami.
"No, the shoots are just as lethargic! I think a lot of thoughts!" answer the Mama.
"Yeah Mi, just ngagetin!!! If only so mah, fix the broken heart mah!" guess Rozmyta sotoy.
But his brother and sister-in-law seemed to agree with his opinion. They are also compact mangosteen.
"Yes, Mami also thought about it. But it's not usually rich. It's the duration of her broken heart longer!" reply Mrs.Rukmini does not want to lose.
"Or don't-don't.." Now change Sofia who makes the people at the table curious.
"Don't-don't what???" Rukmini turned to the daughter-in-law who was sitting next to her eldest son.
Rozmyta and Reinka looked at the family's first daughter-in-law seriously.
"Don't Rizzi have a crush on her bride, but because of the first meeting so she gave up. But it ended up breaking her heart after writhing the woman and Vynt Dae-Ho got married. You see, the bride is very beautiful siihh" said Sofia.
Sontak Ny.Rukmini and her two children fell silent after hearing Sofia's guess that could be true. Because they and their families still do not know, who exactly is in Rizzi's heart.
"Yes aampuunn, if so. Bangeett son of Mami! Pantesan so upset bin baper for days, it makes sense if it happened so." Mrs.Rukmini immediately felt sorry for her youngest son.
"This is it! So that this is clear what the problem really is, let Roz who told people to investigate what really happened to Rizzi. How's it?" Rozmyta looked seriously at her family.
"I agree with Roz!" answer Sofia quickly. We can't just guess gini, Rizzi's impression if he's acutely heartbroken. Must hunt diobatin before chronic." he added.
"Yes, Roz. You take care of Rizzi's investigation. Soon yes! Mami can't bear to squirm your sister so constantly!" said the Mami.
And Reinka just gave her thumbs up as a sign of approval for the final outcome of their family conversation that morning.
