The Woman Behind The Scenes
Chapter 51 - New Life



Something good has already begun, and Dara's idea of making her small culinary business go well. In addition to having an employee who is so tenacious, he also immediately gets regular customers who almost every day come to buy smoked meat with his secret condiments. After the last week of work, Dara and Tomi are no longer as busy with laptops as they used to be. They are no longer employees in the office. Not only them, but all employees in various parts of the country.


Dara can breathe a little light, despite the loss of the job, the positive side is that she can spend more time innovating with her small business. Deftly, he has also registered K’s on an online platform that is crowded with buyers. Without waiting long, in just one month K’s already got a name, and flocked people come just want to see a tool that twirled the meat with an appetizing color.


“I leave first. Yadi has arrived from earlier.” Tomi said goodbye to his wife who was feeding her two children breakfast. Dara nodded and reviewed a sweet smile. She encouraged her husband to leave.


“Oh yes .. it's good from now on K’s I take over. I'm male. You can focus more on improving at home, and playing with children only.” Imbuh Tomi's.


Dara looked at her husband who was walking away, but could not immediately comment. Indeed, she felt so uncomfortable when she had to become a housewife like this. After all he still really enjoyed his time taking care of K’s as his first business.


“Let's talk about it, rather than making his mood ugly in the morning.” Dara said to herself.


In this one month, sales of K’s have skyrocketed. The raw material of meat they use on the first day as much as 10 kilograms, rose rapidly to 50 kilograms.


“Aalhamdulillah's. Children's sustenance is always available,” Tomi said one day after closing the store and bringing home the merchandise.


“Mama, daddy, don't go to the office again?” Kio asked innocently that day, and both of his parents explained in language that was easy for him to understand that they had their own business.


On this occasion, Dara was able to spend more time with her children, although Kayla who was learning to talk and walk often experienced tantrums, but she tried to enjoy the moment.


Tomi always leaves at exactly 9am when Yadi is already in the store, and. Tomi can go home anytime when she needs to, and Dara can still go visit the tavern anytime with her kids.


Dara rushes to clean her children's table after the two boys are done with their breakfast. A bowl of whole-grain cereal with milk, and each got a slice of bread he made himself last night. Since she is no longer an employee, Dara has a new hobby of making bread and cakes for her family.


His eyes were fixed on the phone above the washing machine. Apparently Tomi left her phone ... Dara held the phone, rubbing the screen. Nihil ... The phone was locked with a pattern. She had not checked her husband's cell phone for a long time. After the last time they had a conversation about her husband's chat with Fani, Dara no longer wanted to bother about the contents of her husband's phone. But ... This time suspicion just ranted to see a command enter a pattern on the screen of the phone.


“HP-ku yes? I forgot,” Tomi's voice surprised her. The man immediately took the phone and rushed off again. Dara shook her head as if trying to wake herself up so as not to think things through. After all, what else should he suspect now? Since this pandemic they have always been together and busy managing their new store.


“Kio .. let's play outside. It's there ade Sisi.” Dara this time also learned to live socially. Since moving into this contract, he has a neighbor next door. A pair of new parents are very young, with a female toddler named Sisi. The boy was so beautiful, with his shoulder-length hair and bangs always neatly combed over his eyebrows.


Kio runs out, knowing his new friend is there, and Dara follows him along with Kayla who is training her way.


“Mama Kio's. Well, the kids are tidy at this hour? Awesome euy!” praise Rara, Sisi's mother. The woman is always smiling. In the morning she looks so beautiful with neat eyebrows and thin lipstick on her lips. She's a real housewife. Her husband did not allow her to work, so she had to stay home. Rara is not new there. He was one of the children of the population who had long settled in the neighborhood, and his mother was only 3 houses away from his contract.


“Listen-heard now no longer work in the office, huh, Tea? Same ... My husband was also affected. Hotels have started to quiet, now their salaries have not 100% more.”


“Iya right, teteh. Pity too, yeah. Almost all affected.” Dara tried to show her empathy for someone who rarely hangs out with neighbors, this time she spent more time than usual to talk.


“But now there is K’s. Teteh can calm down a little, right?” continued Rara, and Dara answered her with a small laugh and nod.


So far, K’s is going very well and Dara has tried to take into account if the profits continue as they are today, they will return the capital of making the tool in just 5 months.


Dara returned to her house, because she had to start sorting out the laundry. Usually he separates clothes based on color, and checks the pocket because he likes to leave small items there.


“What is this?” Dara pulls out a small plastic clip from her husband's pants pocket. Instantly he shuddered, because such plastic he often saw in the past when Tomi was still struggling with drugs.


Dara shook her head, again trying to pull over her buffet and went back to sorting the laundry to finish quickly. But ... The thought kept bothering him.


“Today is so crowded. Me and Yadi were overwhelmed because it turned out that there were no parts, and cambek.”Tomi told me while eating a bowl of rawon made by his wife. Dara smiles knowing that K’s is starting to get a big fan.


“This is the result. Don't forget to record. Anyway operation leave it to me. If the bookkeeping, you are more detailed about it.” continued Tomi.


Dara did not say much, because she was considering questioning her findings today.


“So I found a plastic clip in your pants pocket ... What kind of container?” he finally dared himself to ask.


Tomi frowned, then laughed for a while.


“That's a former coupler. Last time there was a drawer section in our tool that stepped one coupler. That I bought, put in plastic clip.”


Phew! Dara felt relieved to hear that answer. He should be so worried, because now he is not much with Tomi in K’s. Tomi always asked him to focus on taking care of the household, and managing online promotions.


“Oh yes. Next week we close first. I want to go home to see my mom. Anna's sick she said, we're all looking, right?” tomi said and was immediately approved by his wife. Anna's sick? Thought Dara in her heart. All this time he knew that the woman had a stomach acid disease that easily relapsed, and several times he came still with a wide laugh holding his stomach.
