after Melina occupies a new rented house, currently he is pensive in the middle room of his contract.he is thinking to find additional income.during this time he already has income from the business he sells online.but now he has to find additional income because he is now he is fully responsible for the daily needs of his and his daughter.


finally he found the idea to rent a place for him to sell.he thought besides selling online he would sell directly .he would sell dishes as he sold online so far.


he goes to find his daughter and intends to take her shopping to the market .


"Fa.it's with mother yuk...!"bring Melina.


"where's Ma?"ask Alifa.


"we go to the Fa market, mom wants to open a food stall business.we shop for the ingredients"., Melina said.


"sook Ma'am, sure to sell well later mother's sales.Mother's cooking is always good".Alifa praised.


"aamiin fa.." said Melina with a smile.


they also went to the market to buy the materials needed for their sale.


it did not take long to get to the market, because the location of the market is not too far from their rented house.


time has shown at eleven o'clock in the afternoon, they have arrived home again.


"cape too, Miss shopping!"alifa.


now they are sitting in the middle room when they arrive from the market.


"yes, no, how many times we go around the market.


"yes yuk fa we eat first aja.laper nihh.".said Melina.


"come on Ma'am".answered Alifa


previously they had bought packaged rice when in the market earlier .


they went to the kitchen together to eat.finished eating ifa clean up their used dishes while Melina opened their groceries earlier.


finished washing dishes ifa directly approached his mother.


"Mom when are we going to start cooking".asked Alifa.


"later afternoon aja fa, it is also we used to dry food.later for the fruitful we cooked it at dawn aja fa".Answer Melina at length.


"ok Ma'am.".ifa answered with a smile and gave her thumbs up to her mother.Melina simply replied with a smile.


finished cleaning the groceries Melina and Alifa now began to prepare the seasoning to be used.


it did not feel the time had gone up in the afternoon.after they finished preparing the spices - the seasoning they also rested and decided to cook later after the prayer isya.


currently the time shows at 18.00 .after they finish performing ifa prayers enter her room.even what she did.while Melina sat in the middle room while opening her phone.


"well, there are so many who chirp me".murm Melina lirih.


they on average give support to Melina for her decision.because she previously wrote in her story with the caption "bismillah start a new two" .she added her photo with Alifa.automat who saw the direct comment, he said,because the people closest to her know her problems with her husband.


currently Melina and Alifa are getting ready to start cooking after they previously performed Islamic prayers.


they were busy with their respective parts.It did not feel like the time had already shown at eleven o'clock in the evening and they had finished their work.


"fa is done, we should sleep because tomorrow we have to wake up before dawn". Melina told ifa.


"ok Ma'am.ifa is also a bit sleepy".ifa replied.


they also went into the room and immediately fell asleep.sleepiness immediately attacked those who were tired after cooking earlier.


time shows at three o'clock in the morning the alarm goes off Melina's phone.Slowly she wakes up and picks up her phone to turn off the alarm.


"it's three o'clock, I have to start preparing the ingredients that I'm going to cook".Melina said to herself.


Melina went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth because it was not time for morning prayers.


after coming out of the bathroom he went straight to the kitchen to start his activities.


deftly he began to cook the menus that he would sell in his store.actually can not be called a stall anyway, because he only uses a small table placed in front of his contract to save the results of his cooking later.


people already know that he will sell dishes because when he was shopping at the market he met some of his rented neighbors.they asked him why Melina shop a lot.then Melina also told her his intention to sell cuisine and they are also very supportive.


Adhan also reverberated the sign of the time is already dawn.


"mother..why not wake up ifa, ifa so no help mom cook".ask ifa when she wants to go to the bathroom and pass the kitchen and see her mother is struggling with her cooking tools.


"nothing ifa, later ifa help you arrange the results of the cooking in front.


"but the cook's cassian mother alone must have been tired".sahut Alifa again.


"it's okay ifa.ya already you pray aja".told his mother.


"alright ma'am".answered ifa.


finally ifa passed to the bathroom and then performed the dawn prayer.


time continues to spin does not feel the sun has shown its light.time has shown at seven o'clock.People began to arrive to buy cuisine at the Melina stall.


in addition to selling food Melina also sells yellow rice for breakfast.


within an hour Melina's trading was half over.


"Bu Alhamdulillah yes sell us bestsellers".Alifa said while they were resting.


alifa school is still a holiday so she can help her mother sell today .


"iya ifa Alhamdulillah".answered her mother.


"thank you for helping my mother".said Melina.


"iya Bu together.kan it is the duty of Ifa to help the mother.


they embrace with a feeling of sadness.


"is there still Mel's yellow rice?"ask Neli's tea neighbor Melina's contract.


"yellow rice is finished with tea.


"yes, I'm late".so Neli's tea pouted.


"the afternoon was very sad".Semelina said.


"yes, I was bad luck".answered Neli's tea cengengesan.


"aduhh abis doing this last night until bad luck gini".goda Melina


"it's normal that Mel gushed hehehe.". answered Neli's tea shyly.


"duhhh who softens this".sahut Melina while laughing.


"hhh that's how is your ex-husband Mel?".asked Neli's tea suddenly.
