After Zayen wash his hands, then prepare rice and also dishes and spoons and drinking water.
Zayen immediately opened his package, suddenly he remembered the existence of his mother-in-law in his house. Many times Zayen looked for ways not to offend his mother-in-law about two different packs of pecels.
'How about this, if I eat a pack what no offense. If I pura pura satan seems impossible, whereas I bought two packs. Aaah, how complicated it is to share it. How about I make one, keep me stirring and I move it to this big plate.' He muttered, then immediately opened it and mixed it into one. Then Zayen immediately stirred it, so that the spiciness was evenly distributed.
After feeling ready to eat, Zayen poured water in each glass. Then he sat down and waited for Afna and her mother-in-law.
Not long after, Afna slowly stepped her feet with a support stick.
After arriving near the chair, Zayen immediately pulled out his chair and helped his wife to sit down. Lady Nessa who saw the attitude of her daughter-in-law also remembered the patience of her husband who was so considerate when she was pregnant with twins.
"Sorry, Ma. If Zayen's lunch is very much different from his lunch mama and Afna."
"Don't be too low, not good. Mama used to be difficult like you, in the past the journey of your life was not much different from yours. But the mother remained grateful, for still being given pleasure that could not be judged."
"Yes, my mom is a hard worker. My mama used to sell kueh, peddle her merchandise where her legs go."
"Your mom can be an example for you, can be a valuable teacher that is worthy to be exemplary."
"Yes, but unfortunately I'm not as smart as mama who can do any job."
"Can you cook?" ask Zayen while getting rice for his wife.
"Let me take it for myself, and let me take it for you."
"It's okay, let me serve my wife. You haven't answered my question, answer it honestly."
While the mother can only be a loyal listener, between the child and daughter-in-law.
"I can't cook, even all I know is salt and sugar. Solved kitchen spices only onion and garlic. That's all I thought, because I never dove in the restaurant. All I know is to order and spend."
"I'm sorry mom, son Zayen. Mama is very difficult to teach Afna about the world of civilization. Maybe if learning with you will be quick, sometimes a child is very unique. His parents could not be successful teachers for his children, but that was not meant for other people's children. Sometimes, his son will succeed from the knowledge of others given to his son." Said the mother-in-law explaining that it was quite long, while Zayen just nodded.
Just got a mouthful, suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside the house. Zayen opened it, and Afna and her mother continued eating.
Ceklek, Zayen opened the door. And he saw a middle-aged man who had stood straight in front of him still looked handsome. Coupled with its slippery and fragrant appearance. Unlike Zayen, who looks like an ordinary person.
"Papa, are you home?" sapa Zayen then kissed the back of her father-in-law's hand.
"Yes, where's your mom and your wife?" tanyanya who still stands on the doorstep.
"Afna and Mama are having lunch, pa. Come in, and have lunch with us." He answered, then invited his father-in-law to lunch.
Mr. Tirta immediately entered and headed to the dining room, he saw his wife and daughter who were enjoying a very simple meal in the eyes of Mr. Tirta. Plus his wife who also ate together even though only with pecel and fried.
"Silent, continue with lunch. Papa is also very hungry, where are the plates and rice."
"Let mama take it, son Zayen. You continue eating, let mama serve papa. And you Afna, finish your food. Don't let it run out, it's not good to throw food away."
"Yes, Ma." Zayen and Afna answered.
Devouringly, Mr. Tirta enjoyed it. Even adding to the portion of the meal, somehow Mr. Tirta felt addicted while enjoying his lunch. Zayen who saw it was full of wonder, of course.
"Papa's hungry?" ask the wife a little bit.
"Yes, papa's starving. Earlier this morning my mother did not prepare breakfast for papa, said my mother was impatient to meet Afna. When we got to the office, there was only a meeting. There was also no lunch, as a result papa starved."
"Geez!!!" the plaque!! madam Nessa slapped her forehead in forgetfulness, as a result of her mistake made the husband starve.
"Sorry, sweetheart. Next time I'll be more thorough." He said again and felt ashamed before his son-in-law.
"Forget it, now you wash the dishes. I want to talk to Zayen my son-in-law."
"Keep Afna telling me what to do, pa?" ask Afna who was confused what to do.
"You can sit back and watch television." Zayen replied.
"Well, because there's no other job. Afna chose to watch television while waiting for all of you, and nothing else will be done by you." He replied, then Afna grabbed the remote and began looking for channels that she thought were good quality. Like cooking or making cakes.
While Zayen was only obedient, he invited his father-in-law to sit in the living room.
"Let's sit in the guest room, pa. It seems more comfortable and nothing bothers." Take him and get up from his seat immediately.
"Okay, come on." The two immediately headed to the living room.
"Please sit down, pa." Mr. Tirta immediately sat down and followed the son-in-law.
"What's it gonna take, Pa? until you want to talk to Zayen four-eyes." Asked curious, he was a little worried if his father-in-law did not accept if his daughter was treated less well in terms of supporting his favorite daughter.
"Papa wants to invite you to join the company papa, because papa is confident in your ability. And you know for yourself that with her sister Afna, Kazza is no longer home. Kazza is finishing his education in America, and all the while managing his company in America with his brother." Answer the father-in-law while explaining.
"It looks like Zayen can't, because Zayen has a job that just can't seem to be left behind. Zayen has a huge responsibility with Zayen's co-worker, Pa. Although not how much the salary, but Zayen feel comfortable in working. Zayen's gonna weigh him back, pa. Forgive me, Zayen."
"If you may know, what is your real job? I'm sorry, if papa has been presumptuous to question your work."
"There is no prohibition for papa to ask, Zayen's job is just to deliver merchandise." He said he reasoned, he was afraid he would get an investigation from his father-in-law. Moreover, he faced the Danuarta family, which of course was more rigorous investigation.
