Ara had wanted to return to the village of her late mother and father in Bandung. But Ara abandoned that intention because she still had to finish her studies there. Especially now that he is compiling a thesis.
Already a week Ara stayed at Ratih's house, no word from Bram at all. He really doesn't care about his pregnant wife. But Ara still likes to send her messages, as a form of attention and responsibility as a wife. The message, which was attentive to Bram, reminded Bram to eat and maintain health. But none of the messages were answered by him. Let Bram not reply, the important thing has been sent and read. Ara hopes Bram will take care of his health and be happy with Giselle, despite the feeling of praying so.
Ara also began to feel bad hitchhiking with Ratih without doing anything. Ara decided to find a part-time job. Of course Mia and Ratih forbid Ara to work, let alone Ara being pregnant.
Now that Ara and Mia are walking down the campus hallway, they have just completed their tutoring with Regan as their supervising lecturer.
"No! You can't work Ra, you're pregnant." Mia shook her head and refused Ara's request to join her part-time job at the restaurant.
"The doctor said that my content is fine, besides I'm not nauseous anymore!" Ara smiled cheerfully. Yeah, which has been better since leaving Bram's house.
Now that her womb has begun to enter the age of 4 months, she is not nauseous anymore as before. Even he became stronger.
"No, I don't want you to be the same candidate as me for anything!" Mia did not want to be denied by Ara and this was also for the good of the woman.
"But...."
"No Ara!"
"But I have to make money, I don't feel good about being home and being quiet. I'm bored too, please.I want to come to work huh? Not full work really," persuaded Ara to Mia, he wanted to work.
"What kind of full work? That restaurant I work at, full-time afternoon! Keep up the work too tired, Ra. You don't have to mess around."
"I have a job opening that is not tired" said a man who stood right behind the two women. Yes, that man is Regan the lecturer handsome, young and obviously intelligent.
Ara and Mia looked back and looked at Regan with puzzled looks.
"Please sir," said Mia and Ara together.
"Just heard you need a part-time job?" regan asked as he glanced at Ara.
"Yes sir, you have a job for me?" ara's eyes immediately sparkled even though Regan only asked about work.
"Fra! Can't!" mia's exclaiming forbids.
"Mi.." whiney Ara spoiled, with a parched face on Mia.
"Ara, you can't work."
"Mia, please" said Ara pleading again
Regan suddenly cleared her throat. "Ehem, the work is not heavy. Just be my assistant."
Regan's words made Ara and Mia surprised. They think Regan's not serious. Regan spoke again, he was serious about his offer. Yes, even if Ara would accept the offer.
"Sorry sir, the job is good and not exhausting enough. But I couldn't, better you give me a job in a public place."
"Who? Why?"
"I can't be your assistant, being Mr. Regan's assistant means that I have to be around you all the time. It's not that I don't want to, but my status doesn't allow me to be alone with another man who is not my muhrim" Ara said firmly guarding herself.
Mia immediately saw Regan's paled face, was the man offended by Ara's words?
Bramasta Wiratama, you're such a fool. Diamonds like Haura you throw away and you ignore. Look, how she is so caring for your relationship even to the point of keeping a distance from other men. Just for a stupid guy like you?
Regan really regretted the attitude of the man who had wasted Ara. A girl as good as this and so guarded her honor, was treated unkindly and ignored. For the sake of another woman who is not necessarily better than him.
"No! I'm not offended by you, I'm glad you're so-ah don't talk about it anymore. You said you needed a job in a public place, right?" regan asked Ara once more.
"Yes, sir, I want to." Ara nodded her head.
"Sir, not sir!" Mira shook her head, she did not want Ara to work.
But Ara remained stubborn, after guidance she went with Regan and Mia. Regan takes the two women to a cafe called Chocolate lovers. Cafe that provides chocolate snacks, cakes, salty foods are also available. Working hours at the cafe was not too heavy, there was a schedule sif morning, afternoon and night. Most who come to the cafe are teenagers who just hang out or lovers who are dating. Regan also feels safe if Ara works there and again the cafe manager is a person she knows.
"My name is Haura, mother can call me Ara. Thank you for accepting my work here, Mom." said Ara while smiling kindly at Gina, the cafe's manager.
"Okay Ara, I'm Gina. Just call me sister Gina, don't worry.you'll be a sister-"
Regan immediately silenced Gina's mouth with one hand and stopped the mouth from speaking. 'Oh this sister of Gina,' Regan looked at Gina with an annoyed look.
"What did you say?"
Rich sir Regan has a relationship deh same Bu Gina. Inner Ara thinks Gina and Regan close, yes see their very familiar gelagat.
"Hahaha.it's okay, it's okay." Gina took Regan's hand off him.
"Yes Ara, you can work from tomorrow!" gina said kindly.
"Now you can too, ma'am" said Ara with her innocent face.
"Tomorrow Ra," said Regan, paying attention to Ara and making Gina smile.
"Yes, it's okay tomorrow."
"I want to work now, Mom, I'm bored at home!" said Ara then waltzed away leaving Gina, Regan and Mia who were near the cashier table. Ara instantly adapted to her job as a servant.
Regan looks at Ara with a smile, she is happy because Ara can smile and enjoy her work. "Mom Gina, I'm Tipping Ara ya Ma'am! Now I have to go to work, this is my number Mom..if anything happens to Ara tell me yes Mom." Mia handed a piece of paper bearing her mobile number to Gina.
Gina received the piece of paper and then she smiled. "All right!"
Thanking Gina and Regan, Mia must return to her routine of working part-time at a food stall near her home. He had to leave Haura there.
"Cie.cie.it seems I want to have a sister-in-law." Gina seduces Regan and nudges her arm.
"Sister!" Regan immediately glared at Gina, her cousin's sister.
"She's pretty, nice, polite, not flirtatious, kind of you!" gina Goda again while chuckling. "So the ice has melted?" ask Gina again.
"Ish brother, what the hell? Sis I'm taking Ara, yes, I have to go to papa's office. Don't let her get tired out, she's pregnant again" said Regan, who left Gina shocked and silent for a while.
"I said goodbye, brother, assalamualaikum" said Regan then sauntered away from there.
"Regan! Are you pregnant with her?!" exclaimed Gina dumbfounded. But unfortunately, Regan has gone far from there. "Crazy! Children are made bunting, even though his face is plain plain.waahhh..." Gina clucked and thought nothing.
From a distance Ara saw Gina and Regan who were seen close by. He thinks they are lovers.
"Sir Regan is so kind, she's like a wingless angel. May the relationship between Ms. Gina and Mr. Regan last, O Allah." Ara smiled as she prayed for the lasting relationship of Gina and Regan.
