Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Kriiing .... Kriiing ....
The alarm clock rings.At 4 AM in the morning, when we were in the village we were awakened by the dawn call to prayer. Won't it be the same here.I immediately took a shower and got ready for the morning prayer. Yesterday Amelia asked to bring lunch to school. Ordered chicken on the menu, but not Kentucky chicken.Last night, I cooked galangal chicken. The chicken is seasoned and the galangal is grated. I made more seasoned chicken stew. So it fast to serve it, just fry it. Fried until dry, it's good eaten with white rice.This menu is Wisnu's favorite. If we cook this, the rice in the jar will be finished by him quickly. I smile when I remember that memories . How to eat at the boarding house? He has been studying at a state university in Malang for six months."Mama, don't worry. Wishnu is in the dormitory, I have lots of friends. I can arrange my meal. Don't worry, OK?" He calmed me down when I asked about his diet habit. He lives in a dormitory inside the campus area, so it's safer.My son is more independent, he is my strength. He was also the one who supported me when I parted ways with Bram. He strengthened me when I cried and even tried to comfort me, even though I knew he was also disappointed with his father.Be good there my son!..."Miss Rani was awake earlier? Sorry I'm late" said Bik Inah, startling me."Just now, Bik. This is fried chicken.""When did you start cooking? Hmmm... smells so good.. Mrs. Rani when you cook makes my tummy hungry. I would clean up in front. Instead of drooling here," said Bik Inah, chuckling. I smiled at her act.*"Good morning, Aunt." I am ready to go to school. She's so beautiful."You drink milk first, okay. You also eat your bread. You must have breakfast," I said while holding out a glass of milk. She drank a little, then continued to put on her shoes."Come on, here's the bread. Aaak ...," I said, feeding her with bread."Auntie, I will eat in the car. Is this my lunch?. Thank you, Aunt. Love you. Muach..." She kissed me and ran in a hurry.Hmmm ....Kids are the same. Always in a hurry when to go to school.I continued my work in the kitchen, once again checking today's shopping.*Shopping list done!. After Mr. Kusuma left for work, Bik Inah will go shopping. I have prepared breakfast. A glass of black coffee, a little sugar and bread. Breakfast for the rich people is unlike in our village, if we don't eat rice it's not a meal, but a snack. Hehehe."Morning!""Morning, Mr. Kusuma. Please have breakfast. I have prepared it," I said."Apart the briefcase, is there anything else to bring, sir?" I asked to make sure I didn't miss anything."Oh I forgot! There's a blue folder, it's a project proposal in Bali. Make sure it's in the bag!" shouted Tuan Kusuma while enjoying his breakfast."Rani! Rani!" He shouted at me again. I was in the office room and ran to him. What is this? Am I wrong?"What's this smell, huh!?" Tuan Kusuma stood in the kitchen sniffing for the smells."What smell, sir?""It smells like cooking. What are you cooking?"Oh my gosh, it smells like cooking. I think it smells like shit or something. He smelled the rest of the galangal chicken that Amelia had brought."O the smell of food? I cooked galangal chicken for Amelia's lunch," I explained while showing some of the leftover chicken. Take a little to taste."Hmmm, delicious. Why are you hiding from me?!" he said while taking a piece of chicken. "This afternoon, I want this to be sent to me, okay? And never hide anything from me, even it's just a piece a food," he threatened, taking another piece of chicken."How about the pepes prawns, sir?""Tomorrow!" said Mr. Kusuma, then rushed out to go to work.*The shopping list is ready, Bik Inah and Pak Maman are leaving. I'm still struggling with these folders that I have not had time to learn.Dret ... dret ... dret ....The working phone vibrated, I call it the working phone because it's specifically for work. There is a complete telephone number associated with this house.Amelia sent a w******p message.I saw photos of her eating the lunch she brought earlier. There are two photos, entitled before and after. Photos of food are still full and photos of empty boxes.[Thank you dear Aunt. Love you]I smiled reading it. Alhamdulillah.( Love you too][Auntie, my friend likes it too][Tomorrow we will make 25 lunch boxes like before. I want to treat my friend][The portion is increased][Love you]What...!?25 boxes of galangal fried chicken!?This is a tragedy!overnight will grate galangal ....******Related chapters

We are busy all day.An suddenly order of galangal chicken was immediately executed on that day. Pak. Maman until Security guys, was given the job of peeling galangal and other spices. Bik Inah grated the galangal. They cheered up in exchange for galangal chicken rice boxes."We can accept orders for rice box next time" said Bik Inah, laughing. I smiled at this busyness. This is a real tragedy!I bought equipment for rice boxes. Must be the good one, not to embarrass. I remembered if we wanted to have celebration in the village. And don't forget, in the afternoon, food packed for lunch for Mr. Kusuma. If I forget, he will scold me again. I prepare it in a special food pack, so the food stays warm when it arrives. There was already someone from the office who took it. For tomorrow, I fried the galangal serundeng first(roasted grated coconut), and stored in an airtight pack. and, just fry the chicken and cook white rice.Done!Tring .. tring … tring...Cell phone rangs.

I’m so tired!After changing into pajamas, my body feels free. I rubbed my feet with medicated oil to relieve the aches. Cause age factor, walking a bit in the mall made me feel so tired. As usual before going to bed, I read my favorite story on the app. Thank God, I can rest early.Knock...knock...knock....There's a knock on my door, who is it? Is that Bik Inah. I opened the door, it was Amelia with a pitiful smile showing, she brought a bolster."What is it, honey?""Auntie, I'm sleeping here. Please," she pleaded with a pitiful look. This child is adorable, very spoiled."Yes, you can. But tomorrow you have to get up early!""Okay!"She immediately burst in and lay down hugging the bolster she had brought. She is so adorable. How were the days when I haven’t come? She must be so lonely."Want to straight to sleep? Or do you want to eat something?" I said while rubs her hair. She answered with a shake of his head."Yeah, just sleep."I lay beside her immediately."Aunt .... ""Hmm.
Mrs. Maid Chapter 9. Mr Kusuma's POV
"Daddy, I love this one," my daughter Amelia said. She thrust the application into my hand.We have been looking for maid to take care of household needs for months. Hundreds of applications entered online, many were interested because of the large salary offered. Anita is Mom's employee, who sorts them out and there are fifteen candidates left.

It is her habit if there is something she wants it she will curl in my arms. And will not release it before
Mrs. Maid Chapter 10. 'Poisoned' by NCT K-pop
Almost two weeks, I have been working here. Bit by bit I start to understand the Character of Mr. Kusuma and Miss Amelia.I changed a bit spatial arrangement of the house So,it looked beautiful and more comfortable, of course with Mr. Kusuma's permission. He freed me to arrange what I want.I renovate inside of the house first. Inside at the front of main door, I put a console table as a foyer on top of it I put large pot for green leaves and tuberose flowers. So when we enter the house, we see views of green leaves and the smell of fragrant flowers. Hoping the negative aura from outside go away.In the inner room, I also put some live flowers at several points that I took from the back garden. Fresh and cozy feel, Pak Maman and security guard helped me.I also gave Mr. Kusuma's office a little touch. Every day I arrange small heliconia flowers that grow abundance in the back garden. Yellow and green accents can unravel cluttered thoughts. Perfect for this room.I tidy up the files
Mrs. Maid Chapter 11. I Want to Have a Brother
Sunny Sunday.The morning sun warms my bodyAlhamdulillah ....We, Amelia and I walked around the neighborhood area. Just a little jogging. Shady and nice gardens on each side. Quiet atmosphere, sometime we meet security guard who was patrolling around. It’s known, Sundays are usually world lazy days. Mr. Kusuma had not come out of from his bedroom yet.Along the way, Amelia kept talking about her school friends. She ran here and there without direction, as if this road belongs to her. Sometime she laughed uproariously, telling her friend's silliness.How cheerful she is.This child is very sweet, day by day I love her more and more. My motherly instincts were touched when she spoiled me. Clearly she had been lonely all this time."Get some rest, okay? Auntie is tired!" I shouted. I took a shaky breath."Tired, huh?! Age factor, huh ...!" She teased while laughing. "Just over there, Auntie. There's a park with swings. It's close, really!" She pointed ahead, toward a lush area full of

"Rani, please forgive her. Please understand at her age. Amelia thought is still unstable," said Mr. Kusuma.His voice sounded heavy. It’s like there was a weight in it. Maybe he realized how lonely Amelia had been. I feel the same thing too. Feel compassion.Amelia locked herself in her room. We are not allowed to enter. Mr. Kusuma said, usually, she would go out on her own after her pique over."That's okay, Sir. I understand. Amelia just needs a friend. Maybe she saw friends who have siblings, and that looks fun." I explained.I offer warm chamomile tea, this tea to calm down. Mr.Kusuma took a deep breath, like trying to unravel the burden he felt"I often don't understand, dealing with Amelia. It's very difficult. She has cousins who are the same age. However, they are overseas. It's only me, her grandparents, who she talks to. That's even rare," Mr. Kusuma explained in a whisper. "Rani, please take care and love her, okay.” He added with a sad smile."Of course, sir. Amelia

'A man's instinct is the seducer, when something intrigues him. At the end? Depends on the woman how to respond'***It's been one month, I work in Mr. Kusuma's family.Pleasant.They freeing to do my duties, cook, manage the house, and even manage the finances for household needs. I consider this is my own home that I must provide the best.And also they gave liberations to educate Amelia. For this matter, of course, I discuss and ask for approval from Mr. Kusuma.Amelia became interested in praying and even asked to be taught the Quran. Every Maghrib, we gather together and continue to recite the Qoran. Sometimes, we talk about life. On this occasion, I tried to find out what she wanted and tried to teach her to be independent.I consider her as my own DaughterGradually, I educate her. I drive her to do something not on someone instruction. However, it remains from her own consciousness.The house that previously felt empty, began to feel warm. This house has begun to be enlivened
Mrs. Maid Chapter 14. Troublesome Friendship
Our agreement as friends had been declared that night. My tasks are getting more and more troublesome. Besides managing the house and taking care of Amelia, I was required to become Mr. Kusuma's discussion partner.The reason is because as friends we have to help each other, talk to each other, and support each other. Isn't that natural and it should be like that, explained Mr. Kusuma. But with one condition that I asked, there is no physical contact. Whatever the reason, whether accidentally or on purpose.My time all day is almost up because of them, Amelia and Mr.Kusuma. They sometimes scramble to be with me, and be able to work quietly only when they're not home.Once Amelia asked me to accompany her to do homework, at the same time Mr. Kusuma asked me to listen to his complaints."Daddy is like a child! Aunt has to teach me to do homework. Some of these I don't understand!" She protested when Mr. Kusuma tried to stop me teaching Amelia."What kind of homework!? Just learn by your

Instantly my eyes widened, and my smile widened perfectly."Dear My God!"Wisnu, still carrying his rucksack, had just entered the side yard of the gallery. In the parking lot, we can still see the travel car that drove him.My son is already looking grown up. His face is like a duplicate of Mas Bram, my ex-husband. Only his light skin inherited from me.I stretched out my arms to welcome him. He ran to me and hugged me."Kak Wisnu, why didn't you tell Mom when you were going home?" I asked after kissing both cheeks. he used to be chubby-cheeked, now her face is gaunt. Is he eating less?"On purpose, Wanted to surprise mommy."Then approached Mas Suma to kiss the hand Likewise, Amelia immediately snuggled spoiled in his arms. We ate together, told stories about Amelia's school, Wisnu's campus and lastly Mas Suma bragged about what I had achieved in this gallery.I smiled proudly. As a wife, happiness is priceless when the husband is proud of himself."Is it true that you have one week

“ I thought, Suma is normal or not," he said, looking at me and laughing. "Abah is joking. I'm normal, ABah. This is the proof, Abah will soon have grandchildren," said Mas Suma. "Alhamdulillah. That's called fortune. You must be grateful, as soon as possible to get a mandate from HIM. Sorry, when you’re wedding, Abah could not come. At that time, it coincided with Abah's umrah schedule," he explained. We talk about anything, Especially about life. Mas Suma is right, he is a wise man. It can be seen from the lectures about life that were conveyed to us. Then we toured the factory. I'm not allowed to enter the warehouse, said Abah in a very loud voice, sorry for the fetus in my stomach. Accompanied by Pak Salim, I took a walk in the back garden while waiting for Mas Suma. The land behind is very wide. Lots of piles of wood waste there. Some have large blocks piled up eaten by termites. Mr Salim! This wood is not used?" I asked pointing to a leftover log measuring about forty centi

Even cafe employees are seconded to accompany gallery guests.Apparently this is because exclusive coverage about this gallery has been published. Not infrequently they want to meet me and ask for a photo together. I feel like an impromptu artist. It's funny something new in my age.Mas Suma kept reminding me not to go up to the top floor, Moreover, forcing myself that causes my body to be tired."Rani, remember that you have our baby in your belly! If you are stubborn, it's better not to go to the gallery!" he said during a video call with me.At that time, I immediately cried, Mas Suma looked confused by my exaggerated reaction.He also ordered Aitu to watch over me. Every lunch hour, must come to the gallery to check on me. Like right now.I, who had finished the new design, was surprised by its arrival. He came two hours early. In fact, according to the schedu

"How are you feeling right now?" asked Mas Suma.Now we are at the Club 21 restaurant located on the outskirts of town, The club that was founded by Mas Suma's school friends, numbering twenty one people. They are the majority of entrepreneurs who want a special place, where they can let go of the attributes that are in them. Being a leader or a public figure makes them feel tired, and this is where it belongs."How do I feel? It's extraordinary. There is a feeling that this heart has been separated from me. This feeling has started to grow since the beginning of the construction of the building and it has become more and more crowded. Now, that feeling is broken, separated and destroyed!" I said while taking a deep breath.Mas Suma stood up from his seat and approached my seat. He rubbed my shoulder and said, "Rani, how heavy is that?""It's very hard, Mas. The feeling of worrying that I will fail and not make Mas Suma proud. The gallery is my responsibility and hope. If I fail, it w

This is first time, a Kusuma-Big Boss opened the gate, Usually the security guard does it.I stared at him from the gallery terrace. The door opened by itself after he unlocked it.The door opened slowly, showing several people lined up behind the gate. There was Aitu and another employee there. Aitu, Mas Suma's trusted employee who was appointed to help me.Maybe they had come earlier, the proof is that Mas Suma opened the lock and they immediately opened it from the outside.It turned out that I wasn't the only one who was diligent on the first day. Luckily, Mas Suma set an alarm, otherwise they could dry up outside the fence. I smiled remembering our silliness earlier."Good morning Miss Rani!" they said taking turns nodding at me.They went straight to their posts. Gardener, sweep the yard and trim the leaves that look old. The Cafe section is busy preparing food and beverage ingredients. Aitu went back and forth checking the gallery and ended up in the office tidying up administr
Mrs. Maid Chapter 84. The Monument of Love
I looked up at the towering building in front of me. This building is a wedding dowry, this is a monument to our love. The story between Maharani and Kusuma is imprinted here.He is a husband who understands me. Starting from my intention to make him proud, I received an international award. Maybe on that base, Mas Suma gave me the opportunity to work by giving me a dowry for a gallery unit complete with employees and all operations.Maharani Gallery and Cafe, the name is carved beautifully on a large rock. The gold color contrasts with the black of the river stone. Water gushes between these boulders, falling in a pool full of rocks and green plants beside it. Colorful fish running through the gurgling of spilled water."Are you happy Honey?" said Mas Suma, hugging me from behind. I deliberately asked to be delivered early in the morning, before the employees came. It's the first day of the gallery. I want to be satisfied enjoying just the two of us with Mas Suma, my husband.His han

"Mas Bram, live happily. Our story is the most beautiful part we have. And now it's over. Let go of the shadows of your mistakes. We have forgiven you. Be happy with Wulan and the children," I said trying to give understanding.My words were not comforting, instead they made Mas Bram cry even more. Dropped from his seat, his knees fell to the floor. He sat down and wept uncontrollably in front of us."Mas Bram!" I shouted.Wisnu immediately stood up and ran closer to his father. He immediately sat hugging Mas Bram. Son and father cry together.My chest suddenly tightened. This heart hurts again. Farewells always leave scars Not only us as parents even children will be scratched in their hearts.My tears rolled down uncontrollably. I was drawn to another world where there were only the three of us. And, we were nervous together there."I'm sorry! I was wrong! Forgive me Rani, Wisnu!" he said hugging Wisnu tightly."My son, every night I always think of you. Daddy is crying, can't imagi
