Ravin was driving his car on the streets of the Capital City, Els' husband had just delivered his wife to check on her pregnancy which had entered the second trimester. Yes the content of Els is now 15 weeks, her stomach has begun to look round making pregnant women look happier.
"Want to eat something?" asked Ravin to see Els from earlier just silent, not Ravin did not know what was in the mind of the wife. The man was very understanding and understood about the longing of Els in his eldest daughter, Ciara.
"Can't you persuade Cia to come home? I miss her so much" Els pleaded.
"Mas sure soon Cia will definitely ask to go home without us having to persuade" said Ravin, Ciara had indeed been living with Sintia for two more months, but Ravin believes that soon his daughter will ask to go home.
"But it's been over two months, Mas. I. I miss her so much" the pregnant woman's eyes are already glazed over, holding back the longing and pregnancy factors as well, which makes her mellow taste even more.
"Patience yes dear" Ravin grabbed Els' hand and grasped it tightly, not denied if Ravin also misses the chatter from the little mouth of his daughter, for the last two months Ravin and Els have only briefly met Ciara. If not at school, yes at lunchtime, because Ravin does not want to if he has to meet with Sintia. Not because he has not moved on, but because Ravin is very guarding the feelings of his wife by not meeting her ex-wife too often.

With a gontai step, Els entered a shophouse that was made into a meatball shop. Yes today Els met Widia, Els' only friend who also settled in the Capital. For a long time the two friends did not meet, which is why Els came to visit his workplace first, all nostalgic.
"Gio" called Els to one of Widia's employees who was also her co-worker first.
"Mbak Els" the 21-year-old was shocked to see the arrival of Els.
"Hi.." said Els smiling kindly. "How are you?" continued.
"Gio Good Ma'am, how are you doing Els himself?" ask gio enthusiastically.
"I'm also good, Sri and Dewi are still here right?" tanya Els looked towards inside the shophouse.
"Sri is still here Ma'am, if Dewi had come out about three months ago. He went home and married his girlfriend" Gio said.
"Ohhhhh" Els nodded.
"Mr Els wants to see Boss?"
"Yes, Widia is there? I didn't call her first" Els forgot not to call Widia before coming.
"Mom Boss just came out, but maybe just for a little while. Because Raka is not brought" explained Gio, Raka is the child of Widia and Bimo who was born two months ago.
"Raka is upstairs?" els asked enthusiastically, the woman had not met Widia's baby.
"Yes"
"I went upstairs first yeah" said Els a little run.
"Mak Els" a woman's voice stops Els.
"Baaaaa...Sri kangen very much with Mbak Els" Sri ran to hug Els.
"Do you miss me or my treaty Sri?" quip Els.
"Hahaaa.mbak Els is the most understanding" the girl laughed crisply.
"But I really miss Els, and if Els wants to treat Sri will not refuse, it is sustenance. Not good to deny the sustenance of the son of Soleh" said Sri grimacing.
"Isn't your father Mahmud's name? has he changed his son now, Mr. Soleh?"
"Mbak Els this yaaa" Sri poked her lips.
"Yes, I'll deal with it. But now I want to meet my bachelor son first" said Els left Sri.
"You want Sri to make meatballs as usual?" tawar Sri's.
"May, interracial yes" said Els gave his thumbs up to Sri.
"Ready" cried Sri.
Els opened Widia's resting room on the third floor of the shophouse. The shophouse that Widia rents consists of three floors, one and two floors for her business selling meatballs, while the third floor is used as a mess of female employees who do not go home or far from their homes. Like Els who used to live in the shophouse along with Sri and Dewi, while Gio ngekost not far from the shophouse because he is a man.
"Where are you taking Sri?" ask Widia who has come to see Sri carrying a tray containing a bowl of meatballs.
"Ehh... Boss, this is Sri to bring meatballs to the third floor, Els is there" replied Sri.
"Els coming?"
"Yes"
"There haven't been ten minutes yet" Sri said.
"Here, let me just bring Els' meatballs" Widia took over the tray.
"Thank you Mom"
"Hemmm" said Widia to climb the stairs.

Els holds the baby still wrapped in bedong cloth, the tiny baby is very adorable and also handsome, although not as handsome as his father, because according to Els Bimo is not handsome, he is not, because for the more handsome Els Ravin.
"The mother's son was very handsome" Els swiped her nose on Raka's soft nose, but the baby still did not open her eyes.
"It's so sleepy, huh? last night stay up until what time, baby?" els asked as if the baby could answer.
"Good, continue to invite Mama and Papa stay up late yes" said Els smiling.
"Later mother buyin ball if Raka nurut same mother"
"Don't beat your perverted Mother dear" said Widia suddenly entered surprising Els.
"When's it coming?"
"Since you whispered heresy to my son" Widia said.
"No yes, I am a good mother and a gentleman. How can you whisper bad things?" elak Els's.
"Nih, your meatballs" Widia gave him a bowl of meatballs that she had brought earlier.
"Bakso Bu Boss is the most Joss" praised Els.
"Remember, pay Sri later at the cashier"
"Why are you counting?"
"Of course, because now you have a lot of money, there is no way I can free a bowl of meatballs to you, it's 35k" Widia said.
"Gosh" muttered Els.
"Feelings used to cost only 25k"
"Now it has gone up, especially if the one who bought the money is not beaming" said Widia.
"No price for friends?" hail Els while chewing meatballs.
"There's dong" Widia grinned.
"Your are my best friend" Els smiled brightly.
"How much are friends worth?"
"150k, remember friend's price is expensive"
"Uhukkk...." Els choked on the meatball sauce that had just been sucked in, fortunately the sauce was not spicy, but still made Els' throat sick and poignant.
"Jeez Widia, that's the price of stabbing a friend" Els protested, drinking Sri's iced tea.
"The price of a friend is expensive Els, let alone a good-natured and sincere friend like me" said Widia proudly, making Els turn her eyeballs carelessly.
