The Bride Who Didn't Miss

CHAPTER 111

That afternoon, after her death from the home of Annisa's parents. Rafka drove his car into the city streets. Sure enough as Dad said earlier, if it was late afternoon, the streets around the city would be severely jammed. So now Rafka decided to use another alternative route to get to his home soon.

On the way to his house. There was a field, which was used to set up a night market there. Night market travelers who usually like to move around once a month. Annisa was so happy, that she reflexively told Rafka to stop her vehicle.

“ Bang, stop!” His exclamation, which made Rafka immediately stop his car suddenly.

“ What's wrong?” Rafka asked as she frowned.

“ Bang, we go there ya.” Annisa said pointing towards the field where the night market stands.

“ There? Want to do?” Ask Rafka.

“ Yes, play Brother.” Soft Annisa sahut.

“ You sure?”

“ Yes, Nisa sure! Yes, yes.” Spoiled whine.

“ But this is 17:15. Soon magrib loh.” Rafka.

“ Yes, Nisa tau. Therefore now we do not need to go home first yes.” Annisa said, now starting to hold Rafka's left arm. Hoping for the man to agree to accept his invitation.

“ Hmm, fine.it is up to you. But where are we going this time? There is no way we will park here until the night market opens.” Said Rafka who felt not so comfortable if he had to wait there.

“ Yes, no really. Just walk straight ahead, later when it reaches Nisa will tell Brother the place.” Annisa said while pointing towards the front.

“ Hmm, alright.”

Rafka is now starting to restart the engine of his car. He then ran it slowly, for fear that the place where Annisa intended to wait for the night market to open would be missed. So that will make it more difficult to turn back the speed of his vehicle there.

A few minutes passed. Because Rafka runs his car slowly, then the location of the place in Annisa's intention seems a bit far away. But that's not a problem. Better slow down a little, rather than having to turn back.

“ Still far Nis?” Ask Rafka while paying attention to some outlets there.

“ Is near Bang, just at the end of it. Cake Shop is the only one at the end of it.” Annisa pointed towards the end of the road.

After looking make sure the took called Annisa. Rafka then accelerates a little bit the speed of his vehicle. So that now it is not up to three minutes they have arrived at the Shop referred by Annisa.

“ Here right?” Ask Rafka.

“ Yes Bang, here.” Answer Annisa.

After getting an accurate answer. Rafka then parked his car in a parker area which is quite wide there. Yes, the parker area there is quite large compared to the cake shop that stands there. But that's quite natural. Because at the cake shop so many visitors who come so that the parking area is now filled with cars and motorized vehicles.

After finishing parking the car. Annisa is now taking Rafka down. He smiled when he saw the store was crowded with visitors. So that made Rafka guess in his heart.

Could this be Annisa's cake shop?

Rafka Mumbles.

Then he went down to approach Annisa who is now outside the car.

“ We'll stop by here?” Rafka is now standing next to Annisa.

“ Yes Bang, let's go in!” Take Annisa.

“ Hmm,” Reply Rafka briefly.

Annisa then grabs Rafka's hand with a friendly, and now they walk together to enter the cake shop.

“ Assalamu’alaikum Miss.” A friendly greeting from one of the shopkeepers who deliberately opened the door for the two of them. Rafka begins to become suspicious.

“ Wa’alaikum greetings, Ani.” Reply Annisa while mentioning the name of one of her employees.

Seeing the handsome man in front of her made Ani look down politely. Moreover, after seeing if the current Boss grasped the hands of the handsome man. So that makes him dare to carelessly look towards

“ Ani, this is my husband his name Rafka.” Annisa introduces Rafka to one of her employees.

“ Assalamu’alaikum Mr. Rafka.” Ani still lowered her gaze not daring to look.

“ Wa’alaikum greetings.” Reply Rafka.

After answering his greetings and a little chattering with one of his employees. Now Annisa and Rafka step inside. There Rafka saw if the cake shop was crowded with visitors. Although outside the title is a cake shop, but upon arrival inside. The place was impressed like a cafe, because there looked so many tables arranged neatly enough. In fact, there is hardly a single bench that is empty in the afternoon like this.

The place seemed to be a place for young people after returning to college or returning home from work. They look so relaxed enjoying the cake and some of the menu drinks Coffe sold there. Really, it makes Rafka so amazed.

 Is this really his wife's cake shop? How did he grow his business? Doesn't Rafka know that Annisa is a home-grown girl who never goes anywhere? Indeed, it turns out that what he read yesterday in a magazine about the success of Annisa in building a cake shop was true.

“ Bang, let's go there.” Annisa's remarks make Rafka daydreams about how his wife can get a business that is quite successful this is spoiled already. He then regained his senses and turned back to Annisa.

“ Hah, yes.” He said half didn't understand.

“ Yuk Bang we are there. Because there we will be able to rest for a moment while waiting for the time magrib arrived.” Annisa. Then now he began to re-make Rafka's hand to follow her to the place he was

intent.

.

 Arriving at Annisa's office.

Rafka saw, the place was so clean, not even a grain of dust appeared in his eyes. It was all because Fatimah, as the caretaker of her trust Annisa always cleaned the room. So as to keep it neat and clean even though Annisa rarely visit there.

“ Sit Bang!” Excited Annisa, who invited Rafka to sit on a big-size sofa that was right on her work desk Annisa.

Annisa deliberately put a large sofa in her work room. So, when he feels tired, then he will easily rest there.

“ Honey, this is yours?”

Rafka looks still watching to every corner of the room.

“ Yes Bang.” Soft Annisa sahut.

“ You, why never tell me if you have a business like this?” Ask Rafka again. However, this time her gaze had focused on staring at Annisa who was currently sitting beside her.

“ My brother never asked.” Answer Annisa plain.

That's true what Annisa said. Didn't I ever want to know what he was doing outside the house. I even found out that he had all this from the magazines I read.

Rafka Mumbles.

“ Yes, alright. It's all my fault, because I'm the one who's not paying attention to you. So now can you tell me since when did you start your business?” Ask Rafka.

Annisa then smiled when she heard Rafka's words. Then, he explained one by one the beginning he pioneered this business to grow rapidly like this.

After hearing Annisa's story of how she was able to get all this. It really makes Rafka so amazed at his wife. How not, it turns out it was his business that he pioneered from scratch without the help of parents. But he can expand his business to what it is today because he always trusts his workers.

“ I really salute you.” Praise Rafka.

“ Don't say like that Bang, Nisa shy.” Annisa lowered her gaze. “ Really, when compared to Brother, Nisa still nothing.” Annisa tries to humble herself before Rafka.

“ Obviously, you still have to beat up with me. Because I'm the expert.” Rafka said he was proud. Really, to be honest he just wanted to tease his wife and see how Annisa responded upon hearing

answer her.

“ Brother is right, Nisa still has a lot to learn from Abang about how to develop this business to be more advanced in the future.” Said Annisa who even felt if her husband's words were true.

That answer really made Rafka more impressed with his wife. Even though he was quite successful. However, Annisa never spoke of bragging in front of Rafka.
