Empty caption Orchid today but trust me not with his heart.

****

The clear sky was filled with stars racing to shimmer showing a flickering light. Fading the heart that was messed up because of the actions of Cahya.

Kenzo's car drove back on the street. I saw a big smile on Kenzo's face.

"Why are you smiling? Because of Cahya I almost got into a fight in public,"

"Hehe, I still remember the face of Adicolor earlier. His expression was chaotic, he saw the incident in front of the toilet but just watched from his place,"

"Supervise your ex so you don't act out, Ken"

"Yes your ex is watching over his wife huh, Nggrek. Let's not make a fuss,"

"Haha, I even forgot the reason why it can last a long time with Adiwarna up to five years,"

"Sama, I am too. It could be because we are younger was once a way of thinking about choosing a different partner,"

"Yes too, are they sorry for each other now?" I was referring to Cahya's statement stating that she doesn't want Adicolor anymore.

"Either try to contact your ex to ask if he regrets swapping an Orchid for Light,"

"I'm still sane to do that,"

We looked at each other and laughed at those who had captivated us.

I know the magic words that stop Cahya from acting. He is scared when Kenzo threatens to report to Bima to have Cahya blacklisted on the visitor list.

Rosemary is a prestigious restaurant for the size of our city. Socialites in this city often hold events there. Of course Cahya does not want existence to be lost if it is forbidden to visit Rosemary.

"Want to eat grilled corn on the side of the road? The sky is clear, dear to miss,"

"With this outfit?"

"You're going to go home first to change your clothes,"

"That's okay, but not for long,"

"It also depends if you eat a grain of it will be old,"

"It can be until dawn if it is, then,"

Kenzo pulled his car over not far from the grilled corn merchant. Two benches were placed under the tree.

I sat alone on the bench while waiting for Kenzo to order his grilled corn. When he came back he attached his suit to my body, Back again this incident reminds me of Bian.

"Thank you, yeah,"

"Yes I feel weird just using it here,"

The grilled corn brother is coming. I didn't think he was teasing us by changing a little bit of the song of Indonesian legendary artist, Alm Benjamin Sueb. Songs that grandparents often play in their homes.

...Oh mother asiknye...

...Sitting two twos, kaye nyonye and mister...

...In gedongan...

My face and Kenzo reddened especially some teenagers who were hanging out not far from us, come sing. Me and Kenzo rushed into the car.

"For your idea, Ken."

"I don't know, that brother is going to be our fad."

"What's the point?"

"Eat in the car only," Kenzo still left his laughter because of the action of the grilled corn brother.

I've arrived back home. Back in bed with a banana doll. Not at all expecting, Tonight Kenzo will be talking about my submission as the inspirational youth of the city.

Even more unexpected things happen. Finally able to reply Cahya even though initially just a fad teased him. I didn't think at all, he was going berserk.

With a smile I fell asleep. One day passed again.

As Kenzo says they will evaluate the eligibility for the award. I don't know what their standards are.

If not getting an award is also not a problem for me. A sign that someone deserved it more.

Remember the pentol booth so remember the conversation with Nando. He already holds the entire Miepa branch and maintains partnerships with Miepa partners.

The following days I often accompanied Nando to determine the rhythm of the task. To be honest we're just learning together but more and more days are starting to get in the right direction to exercise overall control.

Today while in Miepa, Kenzo came to visit. He ordered the meat sauce noodles, considering how critical Kenzo was with the cuisine got me down straight to make Kenzo's order.

"Enak, Orchid. The texture of the noodles is different, you make the noodles yourself?"

"Yes right, we make our own noodles. Now Miepa also produces noodles from natural ingredients but is still limited to only exist in branches here.

Some of Miepa's flagship menus now are the result of my private course with a few chefs. After how many trials I was confident to sell it.

"I've always liked women who can cook,"

"Yes the average woman can cook just to tell the difference, whether special or not the taste they cook,"

"Not really, some of my girlfriends don't like to cook. She also does not like cooking. He doesn't even know the name of the kitchen spice,"

"Where do you know, Ken?"

"Himself said it. I love cooking, Nggrek. When I get married, I'll find a woman who likes to cook too. It's exciting to be together in the kitchen concocting family food,"

"Yes" I answered briefly.

"Grand, I'm gonna drop this off," Kenzo gave me an envelope with a logo from the agency.

"What's this?"

"Just open it first," I opened the envelope and read the letter explaining that I was chosen as the 'Inspirative Young Man of the City'.

"Eh really, so this Monday I'll get an award? the criteria is what Ken is,"

I'm a little shocked, Happy, moved to be one.

"Community's contribution is one of the assessment factors. Your frozen food business helps the economy of the surrounding environment affected by patemi, the employees you recruit also like Bang Ipul are people who were initially constrained by the economy,"

Kenzo wiped his mouth "Mother Ari and Riko who originally sold cassava and then you gave the capital. So that it can be processed into chips with a higher selling price. They can even pay neighbors around,"

"You guys find out?"

"It's not me but there's a special team for that. There are still indicators but I don't understand them completely. Especially now that Miepa already has many branches. On Monday I'll take you to the town hall,"

"My heart's pounding,"

"There is responsibility for an award but Nggrek, I also got an award yesterday for that restaurant. Sometimes there's the burden of fear of disappointing people who've already formed the idea of restaurant standards,"

"Yes sometimes people's judgments determine our attitude huh. It shouldn't be like that, yes,"

"Yes, uh I said yes," Kenzo looked at his watch.

"Yes, be careful Kenzo. Thank you for proposing as an inspiring young man,"

"You inspire me, Nggrek. I was also inspired by you koq, Nggrek. From the previous sale of Adiwara packaging chips on campus can have their own business and many branches now,"

"Banting.. Banting, originally praising at the end of your days of old, "I shrivel between shame and annoyance. Kenzo remembers it most at that time.

"Haha, don't get angry at the flickering. Your skincare is expensive,"

Kenzo and Lexus passed from before me leaving a sense of happiness. Two years of hard work, someone finally appreciates. In my heart I was not very hopeful but when I was chosen, happiness was still there.

*****

Papa and mama read the letter of invitation to accept the award as the Inspiring Youth of the city with happy faces. They seem overwhelmed.

"What is not the age of 26 years is still mentioned young women. Some people are already mothers of it,"

"Dewo!! The young man was 16-30 years old, Big Brother was still in the category" I threw a chair cushion at my sister who caught him with a whimper.

"Mom and Dad will be there as guests. We go together or what?"

"The bunch left early, Ma because there was a briefing with the organizers of the show,"

"Oh that, all right. Do not forget to pray always, give thanks and increase alms, Nggrek,"

"Both pa and ma,"

I entered the room and placed the invitation letter on the table. After this two-year drama finally this Monday there is something that makes my heart so happy.
