Go To The Store


After you finish washing the dishes. Gendis rushed to gather in the family room. Papa and his mother were there. Samar is heard if the father forces him to honeymoon.


"Assynolajet. What's your mom talking about?" ask Gendis and join in their chat show.


"Vaalaikumsalam. You newlyweds are supposed to go on your honeymoon" Vano said with the idea.


"Oh, about that. It's not planned." Gendis glanced at Ares. Looks like papa Vano is urging Ares to honeymoon soon. But Ares hasn't thought about it either.


Gendis smiled, then took Ares' left hand for him to cling to. "But we'll be gone soon" said Gendis.


"Hem, good." Papa Vano was satisfied with Gendis' answer.


"Mom, ma. Gendis is going to the store to see the last recap before Gendis goes on her honeymoon." Said Gendis at once asking for permission.


"Bring Nak Ares, there too. It's too bad to be home alone." Mama Sinta.


"Yes, ma. Papa-mama assalamualaikum." Gendis said goodbye.


"Getishalight." Reply Vano and Sinta simultaneously.


Gendis invites Ares to visit his shop which is 5 km from his home. It only takes 15 minutes to reach the store. Ares parked his black car in a very large parking area. Ares was amazed by the state of the shop Gendis owned.


The shop was on the side of the highway, the place was also strategic. Besides being close to the market, it is also close to the tongkrongan of young people. The clothes sold are also the latest clothes. Not too expensive for young people in the lower middle class.


Also meet the standards of young people who are upper to middle class. Everything is there and fits in with the contents of their wallet. In addition, Gendis also provides online purchases. It will be very easy for customers whose homes are far away, even able to serve out of town to outside the area.


Ares is amazed by the hidden side of Gendis. Besides being a good Muslim, he is also a good businessman. He was even able to maintain his pride so well.


"Come, brother, we're in." The voice of Gendis diverted his admiring att.i.tude of Gendis. He then took off his shoes just as Gendis did who took off his sandals. Then go inside.


"Assalamualaikum." said Gendis to all his employees who were working there.


"Waalaikumsalam." respond in unison to the employees there. There are five people.


"Eh, Brother Gendis. New newlyweds have also come." Sumi the old officer chirped cheerfully.


"Yes Sumi, how's the shop?" ask Gendis to Sumi.


"As usual, Brother Gendis. Stay crowded. Yesterday was closed. But they keep waiting until the store opens." Sumi said.


"Alhamdulillah." replied Gendis. Ares looked to and fro because there were a lot of piles of clothes even where there was almost no gap. While below is a clothing store available if there are teenagers passing by can stop by. While on the second floor is a recap for customers who order online. And on the third floor is the special office of Gendis.


"Sister Gendis here bring the laki, huh?" Sumi asked as she looked towards the back of Gendis.


"Oiya, Sumi meet. My husband's name is Ares' sister." Said Gendis and his hand immediately grabbed Ares's arm and pulled him closer beside him.


"Assalamualaikum Ares. My name is Sumi." said Sumi.


"Waalaikumsalam." replied Ares as he reached out his hand but it turned out that Sumi did not reply because they were not muhrim, Sumi just put her hands together in front of her chest and smiled.


Ares was stunned by Sumi's actions. But Ares did the same. It is true that good teaching is taught by Gendis. All of Gendis's employees also wore hijabs but did not wear veils like Gendis did.


"That's Siti and that's Wati." Gendis pointed at her employees who were sitting wrapped in clothes that would be delivered later in the afternoon.


"Assalamualaikum sis." said Wati and Siti together."


Ares nodded his head while holding his hands together in front of his chest. Like a Muslim shaking hands without touching.


"Sumi, Wati, Siti. Brother will go upstairs. You go on." said Gendis before climbing the stairs to the third floor.


Gendis returned their greetings and took Ares to the third floor. On the third floor there are three rooms, namely a special office room and next to it is a rest room.


"Your place is good too." Ares corrected the office space that Gendis used to occupy. Gendis was sitting leaning on her great chair. He is checking several reports on profit and loss results this month.


"Hem yes brother. Thank you." Thank you." Sahut Gendis as his views examine a sheet.


"What year did you start?" ask Ares.


"Since High School." Gendis Sahut.


"THE SMA?" lirih Ares could hardly believe it. Because usually at that age often enjoy the period of white ash ash.


"Yes, since first grade High School to be exact. The beginning of selling only on line is introduced by Mbak Mega. He directed me, gave me motivation and taught me how to trade in cyberspace.


From then on, I was very motivated let alone get my first salary money to make me more excited. From then on I developed it to this." Sahut Gendis seemed excited to tell the beginning of trading or rather run a business.


"Hem, good too." Ares. "You must have been very troubled." continued Ares.


"Not completely. Because with papa and mama, everything will be smooth." said Gendis smiling. He had unknowingly finished his work.


"Oiya brother Ares. The honeymoon plan. Where are we going? I'll shift work to Sumi to be in charge for the week." Gendis. Then walk to the dispenser that is available in his room and brew a cup of tea.


"On that, I don't know. But don't get too far." Ares Sahut.


"What if Bali?" Tanya Gendis finished brewing the tea and placed it in front of Ares.


"I think it's good too." Ares said, his hand outstretched to take a glass and sip the tea provided by Gendis. "By the way you have a lot of secrets."Ares smiled broadly. Gendis smiled shyly.


"I can't do it." Gendis Sahut. The two of them were enjoying tea in Gendis' office room until it was unknowingly time for lunch.

"It's noon!" Gendis stared at the clock hanging on the wall.


"Yes, indeed. It turns out we've been sitting here too long." Ares Sahut.


"Sorry brother, brother is waiting for me." Gendis lowered her face.


"It's okay, it's really good here anyway." Ares.


"If we go out to find food. Around here is a restaurant. Usually children also order there." Take Gendis.


"okay."


Ares and Gendis went down the stairs to the second floor. There Siti and Wati were already sitting leaning back holding their phones.


"Siti, Wati." The two of them immediately looked up towards the source of the sound.


"Well, is Gendis still here?" Ask Siti.


"Yes, where's Sumi?" Ask Gendis.


"Out of the food pesen."


"Oh, yeah. We're going home, too. Assalamualaikum."


"Waalaikumsalam." answered them both in unison.


Thereafter. Gendis and Ares headed for the first floor. In the store there were two visitors. Gendis smiled and nodded her head at the two officers standing guard. Then get out and head to the parked car not far from the store.
