Today, Joseph and Sandra are busy with increasingly crowded florists and cake orders are starting to grow. They also sometimes lose because they have to take care of two businesses at once, but they never complain. At first he only used the cakes for bonuses when there are people who buy flowers and leave some in the stalls and schools, but over time because it turns out a lot of people like, and there are many people who like it, finally, he opened a cake order in large quantities and had not left in the stalls again.
On the sidelines of his busy life, there was a little boy who came in his shabby clothes in front of their flower shop.
"Emmm... I'm not what? Do you buy unga or cake?" Joseph asked, who saw the little boy about 7 years old, looking at Joseph and Sandra's flower shop
"I don't want to buy anything. Can I not ask for water? I'm hungry I haven't eaten since 2 days ago" the boy asked as he held onto his stomach
"Alo lapal will, not inum sis. Purple thick yes" said Yusuf then ran into the house and came out with Sandra
"Sister Sandla, this is a white lapal and white ail" Yusuf said, pointing at the boy
"Let's eat, let's eat" Sandra said, holding the boy and Joseph into the house
"Eh... But I don't have money to pay for food. I asked for water" said the child was not feeling well
"If lapal eats naci, instead of drinking white ail. Ok" Sandra said as she prepared the dishes for the boy to eat
"This is eating" Sandra said again after preparing a plate containing rice and side dishes in front of the child
"Alright, thanks. Introduce me Leonard Subrata" said the boy, commonly called Leo
"Okay brother, I'm Sandla and this is my sister Yucuf" Sandra replied introducing herself and being taken in by Leo
Leo ate at the dinner table quietly, while Joseph helped prepare the cake orders Sandra had made.
"Yusuf, Sandra I'm done eating. Thank you for the food" said Leo with a sweet smile
"Yes brother. Where do you live?" Ask Sandra with her style of language that is quite smooth
"I'm going to my grandma and grandpa's house in town, but the money I brought in thugs 2 days ago. My parents don't care about me anymore, so I ran away" Leo said. Sandra stood inside her room and came back with an envelope.
"But..." Leo's protest speech was cut off by Sandra's speech
"Don't feel bad, go to your grandparents' house and stay happy with someone who cares about you" Sandra said with a sweet smile
"Thank you Sandra, Yusuf. You guys are very good to me, someday I will repay all your kindness" said Leo moved and the three of them hugged for good-bye
"Sister Leo lupain ita ya" said Yusuf and embraced Leo
"I go first, see you" said Leo and passed away from Joseph and Sandra's house
"One day I will come back to you Sandra and I will succeed in making you happy without flaws" Leo said as he walked by looking back at Sandra's house

"You are right also the deck, let's make a plan for the cafe and restaurant" said Sandra spirit
