“HEI” said I surprised Lina who was sitting dreamy.

“Ngapain anyway loh Syam, I like to ngaggetin mulu” annoyed Lina.

“Yehh. Lo tuh, who daydreams mulu. Why the hell you daydreaming gini” broad daylight, I replied sneering at Lina.

“Lagian lo daydreaming what the hell? Kepo I” I asked kepo on Lina.

“Ngga really, I did not daydream earlier” elak Lina.

“Yehh, please lie again. But rather than dreamy mengu mending follow me deh. We're going to my apartment, there's a mami lo there” take me. Lina does consider mother as her mother, although they do not meet so often, but because of the kindness of mother of course makes Lina so like it. Moreover, his mother also knows well with his mother.

Hearing that there was her mom in the apartment, Lina enthusiastically took my hand and headed for the parking lot.

“Oh yes Syam, do we stop to eat first?” Ask Lina.

“Ah that, mending don't. Cassian mom in her own house. Let me cook. So that the mother rasin cuisine I” clear me who was replied nod by Lina.

“Assalamualikum mami, crown princess come back nih” said Lina with her typical centil when entering my apartment.

Mom smiled, looking at Lina's behavior. Then welcome us.

“Walaikumussalam. How are you?” Mom asked Lina while hugging the girl.

“Bu, why only Lina was asked reportedly also in the hug. Whose mother's son is it?” I pretend to sulk.

“Kasian son mother. You're a little girl, honey. Do you have any problems?” Ask me to worry.

“Ngga kok bu”

“Obviously mi, same problem as doi” said me and Lina together. Hearing Lina say I reflex nudged her who happened to be standing near me. But whatever the power, the rice has become porridge. I heard Lina's words.

“Ngga need to be too in the mind son. I'm sure, if he's your soul mate wherever he hides, he'll eventually be with you, too. Just ask God, son, that he be made your soul mate. Even if he is not your match, may you be the match of the person who prayed for you” mother's advice and I nod my mother.

“Aduh, I became moved by nih” said Lina.

“But I'm hungry nih” added Lina honestly.

“Lo mostly talks Lin” chirpku, and managed to make Lina put her lips together.

“Yes already, you guys rest first let mom cook something” said mom. But it was prevented by Lina. she still told me to cook, because I had already promised to cook it first. I immediately went to the kitchen and prepared the ingredients I wanted to cook. Tampa waited a long time I had completed my cooking mission.

“WAW, the mother's child is now a master cook yah” praise mother when approaching the dining table that I have decorated with many foods. I only responded with a smile, as did Lina.

“It feels good Syam” added mom again.

“Yes is mi, right the one who taught the prospective in-laws” replied Lina with her ledkan.

“Ah you're right nak” replied mother. Semenantara I just smiled wryly in response to their teasing.

After finishing our lunch, we decided to relax in the not-so-extensive living room of the apartment.

“Daddy home at brapa bu?” ask me on the sidelines of our conversation.

“After a while also go home. This is the first meeting with the client. Most they discussed have not entered the core work” explained mama. And sure enough, not a few minutes heard the father who gave his greetings.

“Assalamualaikum” father said when entering my apartment.

“Walaikumussalam well, pi” replied the three of us.

I immediately approached and hugged her. I miss my father so much. Likewise with Lina, she never wanted to lose to me.

“How are you boys doing?” Ask the father who still hugs me and Lina.

“Already, let father rest first, father must be very tired” scolded mother.

“Yes already, dad istrahat first! Did you eat?” my many.

“It's a pity” replied father. Then I immediately went into the room to clean myself up.

“Dad no work tonight?” Ask your mother when they are in the room.

“No bu. Why bu?” Ask dad curious.

“That's a good thing, Madame Adwijaya invited dinner at her house. Maybe to discuss the continuation of matchmaking” replied mom.

“Yes already, we're ready now. Keburun kemalaman” says dad. Then we get ready.

Now we're done getting ready. I also look so beautiful said father and mother, with a long pink dress plus a pashmina moca hijab. They forced me to dress up and wear that one. But they know that I don't really like the pakayan that is so feminine. This is the mother who brought it from Bandung.

Shortly after we finished preparing, Mang Dio who was assigned to pick us up, finally arrived. We immediately rushed out of the apartment and headed for the car that was brought by Mang Dio. Not to make his employer wait, Mang Dio immediately drove his car towards the luxury home of the Ryan family.

Arriving there, we were greeted enthusiastically by the Ryan family who had been busy memeersiapak segaa things to welcome us.

“Assalamualaikum tant om” I said while taking turns kissing their hands.

“Walaikumussalam Syam. How are you, baby? Bebrapa today you did not visit aunt” Tanya aunty Rini soft.

“I'm good tant, just a little busy” replied me. Then they talked to their neighbors. I just kept quiet and my eyes were busy sweeping the room looking for Ryan.

“Ryan is in his room dear. is preparing” said aunt Rini who saw me. I feel the way Aunt Rini is doing, and they smile that looks at my behavior.

“Ah. Come on, come on in. We forgot to let go in” said aunt Rini.

“Ngga paapa kok” said mother and walked in.

“We go directly to the dining table yah” take aunt Rini to all of us and we just follow it.

“Mah, try checking Ryan. Why is he so long?” orders of Hendra.

But before mama moved away from her kiss, Ryan looked towards the dining table where we were all.

“Simply Sham until captivated, your child's effort is very handsome” praise mother when seeing the good looks of Ryan. Well Ryan is very handsome with formal pakyan as well, black trousers combined with a moca shirt that matches my hijab.

“Ibu” my word to mom. How could he have cornered his son.

“Sorry Ryan stayed” Ryan told us, then kissed my mom and dad's hands.

“Ngga papa kok son. You're so handsome” compliment mom on Ryan.

“Tante could have. Auntie son also beautiful” elak Ryan then pulled a chair beside me and sat down. I who heard Ryan praising me turned to Ryan with a shocked expression.

“Lo don't need to pede. I was just kidding” Ryan said with his cold face.

After all the gathering we immediately had dinner.

“Who also pede” elakku.

“You're whispering what?” Ask mother.

“Ngga kok bu” I replied. Ryan just smiled.

“You are very suitable, your pakayan is also compatible” said aunt Rini.

“Mah” Ryan said with a glaring expression. I just smiled shyly in response.

“Why dear, Syam only normal response” elak aunt Rini.
