Mother to My Nephew

57. Lunch.

Aisyah and Umar were amazed when they entered the restaurant, this was the first time they entered the restaurant that they thought was very luxurious.

“Wah...the place is good, Tea,” praise Umar.

A servant approached them.

“Good day, Mom,” greet the waiter.

“For how many people?” ask the waiter.

“Siang. For four people,” replied Annisa.

“Let's follow me,” said the waiter.

Annisa and her sisters followed the servant, until the servant stopped at a table.

“Please, Bu.”

“Thank you,” said Annisa.

“Mother, do you need a baby chair, for her child?” ask the waiter.

“Bby,” Reply Annisa.

Then the waiter went to get the baby chair. Soon the waiter came with a baby chair.

“Rafa want to sit there?” ask Annisa.

“Mau,” Reply Rafa.

Then Annisa puts Rafa on the baby chair.

A waiter came with a menu book. Aisyah read the menu book and instantly widened her eyes.

“Teteh, this food is expensive,” whispered Aisyah while covering her face with a menu book.

“Nothing, once in a while eat here. It's not every day to come here, ” replied Annisa.

“Umar want to eat what?” ask Annisa.

“There's no cockfighting, Tea?” ask Umar.

“Ayam kerawuk mulu, once in a while another menu,” sahut Aisyah.

“Beef steak want?” ask Annisa to Umar.

“What is beef steak?” ask Umar.

“This is a beef steak picture,” Annisa shows a beef steak picture to Umar.

“No need ah, Teh,” refuse Umar and then read the menu again.

“Umar wants a burger,” says Umar.

“Drink what?” ask Annisa

“Mau tota tola,” replied Umar.

Finally Annisa ordered food and drinks to the waiter. After the servant went, Aisha moved her body near Annisa.

“Indeed Teteh has money to eat here?” aisha asked while whispering.

“There, thanks to Bang Toriq,” replied Annisa.

“Teteh given how much is Bang Toriq?” asked Aisha again in a whisper.

“Enough for a Triple here,” replied Annisa.

“Bang Toriq is very good with Tet. Until giving a lot of money to Teteh,” said Aisyah.

“Because Rafa is Teteh's adopted son, Rafa is Abang Toriq's dependant. So all the needs of Teteh and Rafa, Abang Toriq who fulfilled,” replied Annisa.

“Enak so Rafa, Grandpa, Grandma and Omnya the rich all,” Umar chirped.

“But according to Rafa it's better so Om Umar. Because Om Umar has a Father, Mamah and Teteh-Teteh,” replied Annisa.

“Oh yes, yes. Rafa is an orphan,” said Umar.

Finally the food they ordered came. They eat quietly. Umar ate his food with great pleasure.

“Enak, Tea,” says Umar while eating voraciously.

“Alhamdullilah if delicious. Spent, yes food,” said Annisa.

Rafa eats by himself. It was fortunate that Annisa brought a baby slabber, so her food did not dirty her clothes.

Annisa also ordered a take-home meal for her parents.

After she finished eating and paying for her meal, Annisa booked an online taxi to go home. Annisa decided to pray dzuhur at home because of the hassle of carrying a lot of groceries and carrying Rafa. Fortunately, online taxis are easy to come quickly, so they can quickly get home.

When they reached Annisa's house, they saw Arya sitting on the porch of Annisa's house.

“Assalamualaikum,” said Annisa when entering his yard.

“Waalaikumsalam,” Arya replied.

“Sorry A. Annisa prayer dzuhur first, had not had time to pray,” said Annisa.

“Iya, Aa wait,” Arya replied.

Annisa went into her house. In the tv room Annisa met her parents who were watching television.

“Tadi Arya looking for Annisa. Mamah said Annisa again went with Aisyah and Umar,” Mother Titien said.

“Iya, Annisa has met with Aa Arya. He was sitting in front. Now Annisa wants to pray dzuhur first. Annisa had not had time to pray,” replied Annisa.

“Oh yes, Annisa buy oxtail soup for Mamah and Bapak. Annisa keep it on the dining table,” Annisa said.

“Alhamdullilah, thank you Annisa,” said Ms. Titien.

“Come Sir, we eat first,” invite Mother Titien to Par Ernawan.

Annisa went straight to the bathroom to take ablution. Dzuhur Annisa prayer finishes to meet Arya who is still waiting for her on the terrace of the house.

"Aa Arya there is need with Annisa?” ask Annisa to Arya.

“From supermarket Badag,” replied Annisa.

“Tadi from where? How to search in Badag supermarket no?” ask Arya pretend.

“Oh, maybe Annisa has gone to the restaurant opposite the supermarket Badag,” replied Annisa.

“I mean Annisa to that fancy restaurant?” arya pretended to be shocked.

“Iya,” Annisa replied.

“Taken who?” ask Arya.

“No one's invited. Annisa just wanted to take Aisyah and Umar there,” replied Annisa.

“Annisa is working? Where's that much money?” ask Arya curious.

“Annisa beloved Abang Toriq,” replied Annisa.

Arya frowned at Annisa's reply.

“Indeed Toriq who is Annisa really to give that much money?” ask Arya curious.

Annisa sighed.

“Abang Toriq would-be husband Annisa,” replied Annisa in an almost unheard voice.

“Since when? Didn't Annisa say she wanted to work in Padalarang,” said Arya with a little emotion.
