My dear Siomay

Guests not invited

The comments of the netizens kem wanderan in the video uploaded by Tio to the internet. There are also positive comments and negative. But life is like that, among those who support there will be the opposite, there will be no way we can make everyone like us. I read all the people's comments, but there was someone who made me curious, that person said he wanted to feel siomay in my place. He also said he was a food critic. He'll come to the tavern and try my siomay today. I got curious about this guy, so I opened his social media and looked at his profile. When I opened, she really liked walking the streets and giving opinions about the food she ate. How interesting!. The phone rang, I picked up immediately.

"Assalamu'alaikum!", Tio said hello.

"wa'alaikum hail!", I replied.

"Where are you?".

"I was in the store alone".

"Erna is no more?".

"Yes, he still has to".

"Eh, yeah, have you seen people commenting on the internet about your video?", I asked while looking out the window

"Already, and that's how the netizens, there are also those who praise and support. That's normal" replied Tio.

"You see someone's comment saying that he wants to try the siomay I made?".

"No, who is it?".

"I don't know who he is either. He said he was a food critic".

"Oh, huh?".

"He also wrote that he would come today to kadai".

"He's a boy or a girl?".

"Male man, why?".

"Ti.no".

"There was a buyer, yes!".

Before Tio answered, I turned off my phone.

"You want to buy siomay or batagor?", I asked a man in a black dress and mask.

"Both", he answered.

"Wait a minute, please wait over there!", I pointed at the chair.

I quickly prepared siomay and batagor. When I'm done, I deliver the order and I put it on the table.

"Good fun!", I returned to my place.

Before eating, the man opened his mask. I saw his handsome face with white skin, just like an idol. I feel like I've seen that face, but where?. I can't remember it and go back to my activities.

The other buyers began to arrive, I served one by one. The buyer who was sitting on the chair suddenly appeared to be talking about the handsome man. I don't know what they're talking about. A girl approached him and said, "Brandon?you're that guy, right?who likes to be on the sosmed?, the girl while watching her face.

The man felt uncomfortable. He also nodded stiffly. The girl then screamed spontaneously and said, "May I ask for your autograph?I really like to watch your videos, especially if you're eating. You are so cute!", with such a happy face.

"May" the man took the pen and paper that the girl had given him.

I asked in my heart, Who is that man?, is he a celebrity?why I never saw him on tv. I felt familiar when I saw him.

After the girl was about to leave, I called out slowly.

"May I know, who is he?", in a whispering voice I asked.

"She is a celebrity in cyberspace, her social media is widely followed by people because she often reviews about food" the girl explained.

"Is he a food critic?".

"Yes, he likes to give opinions about the food he has eaten".

He is that critic. I approached the man and said, "can I have his autograph too?", I put out a pen and paper.

"Can".

"May I ask?".

"Are you the one who said in the comments on the internet that you want to eat my siomay?", I asked.

"Yes, I'm very curious, so I want to talk about this siomay, because people say siomay here is delicious and after I try, it turns out that the rumor is not hoax, this siomay is indeed delicious".

"Alhamdulillah, please tell people to eat this siomay".

"Of course, this food is one of my favorites", he smiled.

I'm very happy because this can make my shop more familiar to people. He opened his phone and made a vlog here.

"When can I see the video on the internet?", I asked.

"Later tonight, after the new edit I sent and uploaded on the internet".

"Ok, thank you very much", take me to give you the siomay that I have prepared from earlier.

"Oh, thanks, it's been a hassle".

"It's okay, sorry can't give you anything more, just this siomay".

He also thanked. After he finished with his siomay and vlog, he resigned. Later tonight I will see the social media and I will share it as a way to advertise my dear Siomayku store.

The afternoon went by to the afternoon. I'm still busy with siomay buyers. They start to increase and increase. Journalist customers who often buy into the store that used to be, now already know that I moved here, eating them often here.

When night fell, I went home by myself by ordering ojeg online. When I got home, my aunt greeted me.

"Isna, drink first, you must be cape!", Auntie while giving a glass of warm water.

"Thank you, Bi, I've already taken water, but Isna can take her own Aunt do not bother", take the glass that Aunt gave me and drink it.

"Same, it's okay, you're the new cape coming home from work", my aunt accompanied me to a chair.

"How about your wedding?what date do you want?", asked Auntie.

"If your aunt thinks it's a good date?".

"Any date is good, the important thing is that you're ready".

"Isna wants it as soon as possible, lest it cause slander, Isna also wants to get married in KUA alone without the need for a wedding that requires a lot of money".

"That's the problem Aunt left you, you know better what you want".

"Later Isna talk again with Tio, now Isna wants to rest first, Bi".

"Yes, the aunt is also sleepy", Auntie while going to the room.

I also went to my room. I put my body in a warm padded mattress. Tonight I sleep alone because Erna is now in the dorm, she's going to college this year. Maybe he could help if there was no class.

When I opened the phone, I remembered the food critic master, he said the video of my dear Siomay tavern could be seen now. I'm so excited to see him. I immediately looked at his social media and it turns out there is a recent video.

(In the video)"Hi guys, meet Brandon again. We're going to this store, it's called 'My dear Siomay', it's so weird. Let's order the siomaynya . Tara siomaynya already exist, we try. Mmm not good, we better spit it out". I haven't finished the video yet, but I'm really upset. This critic has lied, he said, my siomay was delicious, but he vomited it instead. What exactly does he want?destroying my store?

Suddenly my phone vibrated, the message came in like. I opened it and I saw, apparently from the critic liar.

"Have you seen the video?"

He deceived me, I deceived him too.

"Yet, why?"

"Let's see first!".

He asked me to immediately see his video just to insult me?what the hell does this guy really want?.

"I'm busy making siomay, so I haven't had time.he...".

"You should see it immediately, every video I upload will have an effect on your customers, if you have a problem contact me".

You bad boy!does he really want to bankrupt me?what are my sins to him if he wants to destroy my dear Siomay reputation?
