The dish that Abim served made everyone frown at the sight of grilled fish that was really only burned on the burning embers. The condition of the fish that is charred and looks terrible is clearly far from aesthetic effects.

"This dish was inspired by the traces of adventurers in the wild! It all comes back to nature! Back to nature!" Abim explained confidently.

"You're right, Mr. Abim! Now back to nature is the best!" sahut Hengki while clapping his hands.

No one but Hengki clapped his hands, making the man so keki himself.

"Well, Abim, seeing you fight so hard, is so inspiring" said Ms. Eva.

"Thank you, ma'am," Abim reviewed a proud smile.

"Let's taste it," said Ms. Eva.

"Abim, I appreciate all your hard work, only, I feel that this dish is not worth eating, why is that?" ask Mr. Daus.

Abim was silent, at this time his brain suddenly had a freeze.

"Sorry, sir, is it because of his unattractive appearance? A charred?" ask Hengki.

Mr. Daus shook his head.

"I am a restaurant entrepreneur. For me the most basic of all aspects ranging from preparation, processing, to serving food is starting from hygiene" Mr. Daus explained.

"But, sir, I cleaned this fish well before processing it. Moreover, the cooking process through combustion clearly reduces the levels of bacteria and germs. The cooking process by being burned is also much healthier than being fried using oil" Abim defended himself.

"I know, Bim, it's just that hygienization is not only from food ingredients, but also must be done by the food processor itself," Mr. Daus explained.

Abim fell silent again, looking straight at Mr. Daus.

"You don't change your dirty clothes and immediately cook, you miss the process of self-hygienization" continued Mr. Daus.

"Now I'm asking, are you willing to eat foods that are processed by people who skip the hygienic process?" Mr. Daus asked again.

Abim looked down, he really felt guilty for ignoring that trivial thing. He was in too much of a hurry, given that he did not have much time left.

"However, of course, I will give you points for your effort and persistence!" said Mr. Daus.

"Thank you, sir!" Abim cheered a little while doing a tos with Hengki.

"Verda, a true man, must be seen from his efforts and persistence in fighting. It's not just sitting back and doing nothing" Mr. Daus said.

"Hmm, yes, Father," Verda said.

Mr. Daus now turned towards Vedra. The man served the dish in a young coconut shell that immediately invited the curiosity of everyone.

"I'm really surprised, how can you catch a fish just by staying silent?" asked Mr. Daus in a cynical tone.

"With bare hands," Vedra replied briefly as she raised her two empty hands.

Mr. Daus wore a sour expression, while Verda tried not to laugh.

"So what are you cooking?" ask Ms. Eva to know.

Vedra opened the coconut shell cover that made Pak Daus and Bu Eva directly check the Vedra cuisine.

"Pindang patin" replied Vedra.

Mr. Daus took a spoon and poured the man's cooking into a bowl. Mr. Daus' expression stiffened when he tasted the dish. So did Miss Eva who seemed stunned after tasting a mouthful of bright yellow sauce.

Vedra hides her smile, this secret recipe passed down for generations in her family is definitely one of the mainstay recipes that her mother is very proud of. Vedra can eat up to three full plates of rice if the mother cooks the dish.

Mr. Daus declined to comment, the man immediately sipped young coconut ice with a lime juice that again shook his tongue.

Who exactly is this guy? Mr. Daus wondered.

"I want to taste it too!" Vivie.

"I want to too!" bian Sahut.

Vivie and Bian started tasting. The two were surprised instead of playing with such a rich taste and shaking their tongues.

"Have a son, Bi! It's so delicious!" Vivie clucked in admiration.

"I swear, this is delicious!" Bian commented.

Verda parsed her smile towards Vedra, Vedra replied to her by winking one eye. Verda held back her laughter, anxious to see such a Vedra.

Mr. Daus still feels too hesitant to admit that the dandy man who seems unable to do anything turns out to be even beyond his expectations.

Mr. Daus did not expect that the metrosexual man could do what Mr. Daus said was impossible for a man living in a big city. Men with a lifestyle that is too modern certainly not likely to be able to do things that will certainly be underestimated such as catching fish in the pond to cooking.

Another case with Abim which was indeed interpreted by Mr. Daus because Mr. Daus knew Abim very well. Abim's perfect background certainly can't compare to the obscure man Verda brought.

It's just that the results of this competition clearly show that the man passed the test given by Mr. Daus.

Mr. Daus, of course, became upset not to play because Abim who was championed actually died lice.

"Do you want to eat rice? The rice is ripe" Vedra told Vivie and Bian.

"really? I'm really hungry!" Bian.

Vedra immediately prepared the cooked rice.

Vivie and Bian became the first people to directly snatch rice and a coconut fruit that contains fish pindang.

Verda approached Vedra, thrusting his plate.

"I want to, too, Om," said Verda.

"'You what?" ask Vedra.

"You want, Om," seduced Verda as she chuckled.

"Ehem!" Ms. Eva cleared her throat hearing Verda teasing the man.

"Eh, Mother," Verda grinned.

"Verda, really weird!" moan Miss Eva.

"Mother, is it wrong huh, odd same husband himself?" ask Verda.

Bu Eva pinched Verda's arm in a fit of anxiety.

"Where did you learn weird? I never taught you yes!"

"Yes, I never taught you, but I've heard you say I'm weird if you ever want to! Hiya!" Verda chuckles.

"Verda!" Bu Eva glared towards Verda.

"Mr Eva, sorry in advance, I really don't mind Verda anjen, as long as it's just me" Vedra interjected.

"Naah, right, Mom," Verda chuckled.

Miss Eva gave a huff before leaving Verda and Vedra.

Abim and Hengki approached the couple who were clearly visible being kasmaran just from the way the two looked at each other.

"Abim, you want to eat too?" ask Verda.

Abim reviewed the friendly smile.

"Thank you, I'm not having a taste for food" Abim replied.

Abim set his sights on Vedra.

"'I have to admit that you may be superior to me this time. But I assure you that I will not recognize your achievement as my defeat" Abim said in a speech that sounded so haughty.

Abim turned to approach Mr. Daus and Ms. Eva.

"Sir, Mother, I apologize in advance, I can not join any longer because there is still business that I have to finish, so I say retreat," said Abim.

"Oh so, well, Bim," said Mr. Daus.

"Be careful, Bim, see you later" said Ms. Eva.

"Excuse me, sir, Mom," Hengki said goodbye.

Abim and Hengki immediately left the fishing location accompanied by a skeptical gaze from Verda.

"Dad, Mother, let's eat together" Verda asked.

Mr. Daus and Ms. Eva exchanged glances before they finally had lunch together.
