The Love of Night Butterflies

Chapters. 45. Little By Little.

Rita was immediately choked by the food in her mouth when she heard Soni's words, she quickly took the water on the table and drank it until it ran aground.

"Sorry, I must have surprised you!"

Rita immediately glanced at Soni sharply. "Not only surprised, I even want to die because of your mouth!" It was very desirable for him to hit the head of the man who was beside him at this very moment.

Bella, Abra and Mama Sintya who had been peering behind the wall seemed to be closing their mouths. Soni's words were really very funny and laughable, so they were forced to shut their mouths so as not to laugh.

"Oh my God, Abra. What's wrong with your brother, why is he so honest?" Mama Sintya to wipe the tears that managed to come out because of Soni's speech.

Bella and Abra who were already unable to help their laughter instantly moved away from the place. "Haha. Oh my goodness, brother. Haha." Laughter Abra just let go when it was away, as well as Bella who held her stomach because it hurt.

"It could be that Brother Soni directly to the point, yes Rita must be shocked." Bella shook her head at what Soni was doing.

After finishing eating, Rita immediately said goodbye to go back to her apartment. He felt very awkward because of Soni's actions, especially to Sintya's mother.

"Huh, basic! Strangely enough, I felt so awkward." Rita rubbed her face violently, she then looked towards the bed where her phone was vibrating.

"Why did he call me?" Rita frowned when she saw who was calling, she then picked up the call after a while.

"Hello, young lady!" A man's voice came from the phone.

"What's wrong?"

"Miss, please go home right now."

Rita smiled cynically at the man's words. "If you call just to say that, I'd better turn it off!"

"No, Miss, listen to me first. Madam is sick, she always says Miss's name."

Rita fell silent, she tried to understand what the man was saying. "You mean, Mama's sick?"

"Yes, Miss. Madam misses Miss very much,"

"All right, I'm going home."

The call was immediately interrupted when Rita agreed to what the man said, although she was very lazy if she had to go home to her parents.

The next day, Abra and Soni immediately set off for a restaurant to meet someone. They waited in the VIP room for the meeting to feel comfortable, and there was no interference from anyone.

"Welcome, Mr. Amri." Abra and Soni invited the middle-aged man to sit down, he was one of the investors they wanted to work with.

"Thank you for your invitation, Mr. Soni and Mr. Abra. It's been a long time since I've seen you both."

Soni and Abra smiled in response to the middle-aged man's remark. "Yes, Sir. We're in another rush, that's why we rarely show up." Soni chuckled with her own words.

"Ah yes, I understand. Must be busy you mean this new business, right?"

"If you two are offering all this, I don't need to read it again, Sir. I will definitely be an investor for your company,"

"Ah, you're too complimentary, Sir. We also need to know what you think, so that this business can succeed!"

The middle-aged man named Amri nodded his head, he then read all the files given by Abra and also Soni.

Today Abra and Soni have met with 5 investors, and the five are willing to work together in the business they will soon build.

"Thank God if they're willing to invest, son. Hope your efforts are smooth and successful,"

"Aamiin's." Abra, Soni, and Bella also confirmed the words of Mama Sintya.

"Oh yeah, Mama and Bella made a lot of cookies this afternoon. Then Bella sold it online, and you know what happened?"

Abra and Soni look at Mama Sintya with question marks. "What's wrong, Ma? Is there a problem?"

Mama Sintya shook her head. "All the cakes sold were sold out."

"really?" ask Abra and Soni simultaneously.

"Of course it's true, if you don't believe ask me to ask Mama's daughter-in-law!"

Soni and Abra looked directly at Bella who was nodding her head. "Is that true, honey?"

"Yes, all the cake's gone. It's not too much, about 35, it's,"

"Well, that's amazing, Bel. How about we open a cake business too, yeah count for your busyness and mother." Suddenly Soni had an idea, they should not waste Mama Sintya's talent for making various cakes.

"Mama agrees, I'd love to have my own business." Mama Sintya looks very enthusiastic, her chest pounding when imagining having her own business even though it is only small.

"But, isn't it bothering Mama? I don't want Mama to get tired, there are still us who can work." Abra looks unhappy. At the age of the mother now, should have been sitting comfortably and not busy working.

"Why are you worried? Mama will not be tired, there is Bella who is always next to mama!"

Bella clasped both hands of Abra while nodding her head. "I'll definitely take care of Mama, Mama won't work much."

"But baby, I don't have the heart for Mama!"

"As you and Brother Soni are, Mama must also feel depressed. Let Mama hang out with a lot of people, and do something she enjoys."

Abra was silent at Bella's words. All this time he did not think how his mother felt, and perhaps what his wife said was true.
