Chapter 17 - Surprise For Tania
The next day, Tara was already at Tania's boutique to do the fitting. While the employees, Fara and Ningsih who had earlier helped Tara to change clothes from one shirt to the next. Tara is satisfied with the work of Tania and the boutique employees who make the clothes as they want. Tara thanked Tania, and as a form of satisfaction, Tara invited Tania to lunch together. In honor of Tara's kindness, Tania happily welcomes her invitation. The two then left the boutique and headed to one of the luxury restaurants that Tara deliberately chose.
After arriving at the restaurant, the two sat down and ordered a meal. Both ordered the same menu to the restaurant service that departed from them after recording the order. Now they talk casually and laugh occasionally. Tania and Tara look so familiar even though they have only met twice.
"Thank you, Tara. Because you've already bought me lunch" Tania said sincerely.
"That's it, just think of it as a sign of friendship I gave you," Tara casually replied.
"I should have bought you, you have ordered some clothes to me" Tania added with a smile.
"Next time may be yes .. I am very happy with all the work we made, it is really cool! The longer I fall in love with your work" Tara said. Then he continued saying, "What if I contract you to be my fashion design, if you want. The price issue I have no problem, the important thing is you agree. How's it?" tara asked expectantly.
Hearing Tara's statement, Tania thought for a while before giving an answer. Not long after, Tania said, "Give me some time, will you? You know a lot of my work, and I'm still focused on exams on campus to grab a quick pass. But that doesn't mean I reject you, Tara." Tania arranged every word spoken so that Tara did not hurt.
"Just calm down, I like your answer. I'll wait until you're ready!" tara really mean it.
Not long after that the waiter came with their meal, then the two enjoyed lunch together.
***
Almost three hours Tara and Tania had lunch together, now the two are separated. Tara escorts Tania to her boutique again, while Tara excuses to return to the hotel because there is another photo shoot for the night.
Tania rushed back to check all the work and asked her assistant Fara to make a list of some unfinished orders.
This month there are dozens of clothes and dresses that take so much time and attention that he felt tired. But Tania knew this was God's sustenance for her and all her employees. Every new work that he launched is always in demand by many people, no doubt not until one month all have been sold out. Tania plans to expand her business in Jakarta. Opened a boutique and design school when returning to Jakarta. All Tania prepared from the beginning, because she did not know until when she lived in the country of people. After all, he wants to become an international designer who is famous in all countries.
Tok ... tok ...
The sound of knocking on the door broke Tania's concentration of drawing some sketches of the dress in her note.
"Lake in!" tania from the inside.
The door opened and saw a figure that was so familiar to him.
"Father!" tania exclaimed in shock and could not believe what she had just seen. Tania then moved out of her chair and quickly hugged the middle-aged man called papa. Herman himself smiled happily to see his favorite daughter after a long time did not meet. The two then hugged.
"Hmmm .. so now if you want to meet your own son Papa must make an appointment?" goda Herman to his daughter.
"Not that, Pa. That means Tania, at least Tania can pick up Papa at the airport, Papa here who is the same? Aunt Sarah?" tania asked out of curiosity who visited her.
"If Papa asks you to guess, can you?" tanya Herman gave a small game that made Tania smile expand. Tania briefly thought back to her childhood when there was still the mother beside her. The three of them always play guess. Whether it's a word or a thing. Everything changed after the departure of Mama Tania. Not wanting to make her mood not okay, she chose to finally answer the question from her papa.
"Ih, must be the same wife Papa dong .. maybe the same Risa also here, right?" answer Tania guessing.
"Why yes ..your answer is correct, but unfortunately not correct," this time Papa Tania was like a teacher who was asking his students questions. And the answer is less precise.
"It's not like that, Pa. Who else is dong? The same time bik Ijah and Pak Ujang, it is impossible," replied Tania while singing her lips.
Seeing her daughter's expression, Papa Tania laughed amusedly, then asked Tania to immediately leave the room. How shocked Tania was to find someone she missed so much.
"BIK IJAH'S ... PAK UJANG ..." said Tania
passed over to them and quickly hugged them with teary eyes as it felt very happy. Bik Ijah and Pak Ujang were no less happy because they finally could see Tania who had not returned home for two years.
"Oh Allah, Non .. The more beautiful! Growing up too, sir?" said bik Ijah while stroking Tania's hair.
"A real baby here? It's not a dream anymore, is it?" Tania still could not believe what she had just seen.
"Really, Non. It's the same aunt Mr. Ujang here. We're both in London, overseas!" exclaim Bik Ijah with haru flavor. He himself also still did not expect to be involved in meeting with Tania.
"Ah ... glad Tania can see you're all here!"
Papa Tania smiled followed by Mama Sarah, Risa and all the boutique employees. Now Tania felt that today was a very special day. The people he longed for were nearby and he could hug tightly because all this time he just held back the longing for so long.
Tania then took everyone to her apartment, while the Papa, Mama Sarah and Risa also had to leave because there was a dinner with her coworkers. Tania was supposed to come, but she had previously asked permission to live with Ijah and Pak Ujang in her apartment. And Mr. Herman agreed with his daughter's request.
During her time in the apartment, Tania was very spoiled for Ijah's bik, she slept on his lap, while Pak Ujang himself was busy massaging Tania's legs. The two treated Tania with great love.
