The Conch Mansion ...
A two-story luxury building with large glass windows in several corners. Equipped with a large garden with a large swimming pool.
Maybe some people will judge the life of an Evan Maliq Azkara is very perfect. But in reality, having abundant treasures was not enough to make him happy. His heart was empty, like a vast empty room.
That night, in a room, he was talking about the inauguration of a new branch of The Keong Kembar Cafe in Amasya city with Rafli. The inauguration of the new branch was only two days away. All preparations are done.
Evan will also be a volunteer doctor at a hospital in the city for several months.
"So you're gonna stay in Amasya for a few months?" ask Rafli.
"Yes. I need a new atmosphere anyway. Evan sipped a cup of warm tea to warm his body from the cold air that night.
"That's great. At least, you can calm down there and meet new people. I heard Amasya is a very beautiful small town. You will definitely be at home there" Rafli replied in support of Evan's decision. He understands how Evan's character has been friends since childhood - until the nickname Twin Conch is attached to them.
Although rich, but Evan is not someone who likes a glamorous life or a luxury party. He would rather spend his time working.

Small communities in the city of Amasya have been shocked by the news of the inauguration of the KKC branch. Many residents flocked to the three-story luxury cafe.
Today KKC first opened, they distribute food and drinks for free to all visitors and the surrounding community. Of course, this is used by small communities.
Unlike the case with Hanna who chose to lock herself in the house after knowing that the father of her children opened a cafe branch in the same city. He did not expect Evan to be in the same city as him.
Although Sky and Star had been begging to visit the new cafe for free, Hanna did not give her permission.
There will be a Turkish Kebab to share and Star loves the food. He even waited a month to get it. Because all this time, Hanna only bought it on payday only.
"Mommy ... Why can't we go there? Star really likes to eat bread and kebabs?" asked Sky who suddenly appeared before his mommy.
Hanna hugged Sky's little body. He kissed the top of his head continuously. One thing Hanna always did, she always hid her tears in front of her children and became a strong mother.
"Bus ... We cannot expect the mercy of others. We must live independently and not rely on the giving of people. Understood?"
"Understand me, Mommy." Sky wrapped his hands around Hanna's body. They hugged each other tightly.
"Later when you have money, mommy will buy a lot of bread and kebabs for Sky and Star. So we don't have to go there, huh" persuaded Hanna to hope Sky would understand.
"Who's coming?" hanna muttered up from her seat.
The woman opened the door immediately. A woman was standing with a smile on her face.
"Hanna, I'm here to ask for rent. Last week you asked me to come today."
"Ehm ... Ms. Gulsha ... I'm sorry ... A few days ago my son was sick. I used the money to go to the doctor" he replied, bowing his head. Star had a history of congenital pneumonia. He often experiences shortness of breath and needs medication to relieve his tightness.
Instantly the smile on the woman's face dimmed at Hanna's reply. The friendly face he displayed earlier suddenly disappeared to nowhere.
"You always use your sick child as an excuse. I'm getting tired of hearing it. Your son is sickly and very troublesome!"
Hanna's eyes lit up emitting anger. Anyone can insult him, but don't dare to harass his children. Because when that happens, it turns scary.
"What did you say? My son's bothering?" Hanna moved forward to make the woman who owned the contract take a few steps back.
"Hah-Hanna ... Why are you the one who's angry?" terbata. "I should be angry. You live in my house and can't afford to pay."
"But I don't want to pay, do I? I'll still pay you once I have the money."
"If you don't have money, find another rental house!" throw the woman out.
Hanna was getting angry. He ruffled his waist defiantly in front of the woman.
"How dare you kick me out of here. Listen carefully, Mrs Gulsha ... If you kick me out of your house, then I will expose your affair with Mr Omar! And you will be an old widow because your husband will divorce you!"
"You dare threaten me?" the woman did not accept.
"Not threatening, but asking for time. Now get out of here, I'll pay you if I have the money."
After saying her threatening sentence, Hanna went inside the house and locked the door tightly. Looks like the threat was enough to scare the homeowner into not throwing him out.
"What's up, Mommy?" sky looked questioningly.
"It's okay, kid! Mrs Gulsha is just asking if we're at home or not."
Hanna's gaze then swept across the room in search of her daughter. He hasn't seen Star since.
"Sky ... Where's your sister?"
