Bryan devoured tha'miyah bil baidh voraciously. Ali too. After they were full they headed to the hotel. In the middle of the road Mr. Ali stopped his steps and said,


"Mas. Habasy takanatnya let me who membe-rikan. If he had eaten, I would have said that from you. You just walk first. About an hour. After that you can come. And insha Alaah all will be peaceful and safe."


"That's a good idea sir." Bryan's voice shines. He then handed the package containing habasy takanat to Pak Ali. Ali is smiling. Then walk to the hotel. Bryan took Eltramco to El Manshiya Market. He wants to buy souvenirs for his friends - his house .


***


As soon as he entered the hotel, Pak Ali was immediately asked by Kirana as if Kirana had been waiting for him for a long time.


"Sir Ali where have you been? See that skinny cook no?" The tone was not soft as usual.


"I'm off the street breathing beach air. Let's fresh. That skinny cook whom Kirana meant? The Romi?"


"It's not Romi. That's Bryan."


"If the Romi I know. He's swimming at the beach. If Bryan is now exactly I don't know. I met you on the street. He took Eltramco to El Manshiya."


Kirana grunts. The usually brilliant white face looked bright red. Then he sat on the sofa. Not far from - his two young Egyptian princesses were chatting with his exclaims. Occasionally a giggling sound came from them. Ali sat in front of Kirana.


"She's having breakfast, by the way?" Ask Mr. Ali.


"Not Sir. No more lust. Especially the hotel menu. I'm tired of it."


Mr. Ali smiled, then said, "If habasy doesn't want to?"


Hearing Mr. Ali's offer, Kirana's face brightened slightly.


"That may sir. Actually I'm hungry. Let's go find habasy Takanat Pak Ali yuk?"


"Not come out. This I've brought. I just ate tha'miyah bil baidh. This I brought for Ms Kirana." Replied Mr. Ali while handing the package in black plastic containing habasy takanat.


"Thank you very much, sir. Wow delicious just eat this. Follow me to the yuk restaurant. Let me eat there while drinking the hot."


"Come on."


The two of them then entered Lourantos Restaurant.


The interior design of the restaurant is a blend of Arabic and European. The menu served this morning is Arabic and Italian. But habasy takanat is not found there. Eliana ate habasy takanat voraciously and vigorously. Finished eating typical Egyptian food Kirana then sipped thick hot tea. The girl looked like the bag was enjoying her morning meal. And Mr. Ali saw it with a relieved heart.


"What's the matter, Ma'am, looking for an Engineer ?


Looks like some important business, huh?"


"Yes. I'm mad at him?"


"He dared to insult me last night."


"Ah is right, Ma'am. I just can't believe the kid dared to insult Mbak."


"Pak Ali believe it or not believe it doesn't matter "It doesn't matter so Miss Kirana. I'm afraid Kirana misunderstood me. Because when I met Mas Bryan actually showed the opposite to me. Bryan is so attentive. Me and Bryan also met Romi. Romi says Kirana's mom is mad at Bryan. Bryan smiled instead. Keep Bryan nitip on me to give this habasy takanat to Mbak."


"What's!? So it wasn't Mr Ali who bought it for me?"


"No. Who bought it was Mas Bryan Lha


bring me here."


"Sir Ali, Mr. Ali why not say that. Ouch, ouch, ouch! I guess it's from Pa kAli."


"I was just saying, this is me bringing habasy takanat. The one who bought it was Bryan. Tucked in on me."


"Why didn't he give it to me himself!?" Ask Kirana ketus.


"I don't know Mrs Kiraba. He seems to be in a hurry. He said he wanted to buy things at the market . This important thing shows that Mas Bryan himself does not feel he has a problem with Mbak Kirana. If he feels he has a problem where he might want to buy habasy takanat, Ma'am's favorite food. It seems he has a lot of respect for me. And want to make Mama feel happy."


Kirana silence. Mr. Ali's words entered his heart. Cooled the heat of his anger. But he could not be relieved completely. His anger did not want to disappear completely.


"But last night he said rudely called on me sir. He also cut off the conversation! Is that not the insult of Mr Ali!?"


Ali is smiling.


"Maybe at that time Mas Bryan was tired. Wearied. If you are tired, your mind can not be clear. Try to remember, yesterday he worked from morning until night."


Pak Ali's explanation further melted his heart. "She should thank Mas Bryan. These six days of energy and time he devoted to helping Ms. Kirana. Even in a very tired condition, he still wanted to raise fish to help Ms. Kirana. And this morning, he sent something I really liked. You should thank him. I heard that educated Westerners are easy to thank for the people who helped him." Connect Mr. Ali.


Kirana's anger slowly subsided. The space in his heart that was originally filled with overflowing anger towards Bryan slowly turned filled with pity. He regretted being so emotional and angry, while the person who would be angry with him was so sincere. Silence - Silence infiltrated into her chest a sense of shame on herself. He realized what Pak Ali said had a point. The tempe seller who is good at cooking is already helping him a lot.


"Sir Ali. Later if you meet Mas Bryan say thank you I for his habasy takanat. I'm gonna take a shower and pack." Kirana said with a brighter face.


"God willing, but to speak for yourself is better." Mr. Ali replied with a big smile.


"Yes. I'll see him later." Tukas Kirana got up from her seat.


At a bookstore in El Manshiya, Bryan meets Vidy SeteIah with a hug, Vidy invites Bryan to accompany him to eat 9 kibdah bread beside an old mosque while chatting. Bryan complied with his old friend's invitation happily.


"I am confused about making a choice." Vidy said as he chewed on his bread.


"What choice?" Bryan kalem. His eyes looked towards a grey robed ka kek that was selling tasbih and white skullcap. The grandfather sat pensively His eyes looking towards the road. Bryan was trying to figure out what was on Grandpa's mind at the time.
