After finishing playing golf Rendi took Rahma to her house. Claudia's mother told Rendi to take Rahma to lunch at their home. Rahma accepted Rendi's invitation. But there's a tapi.

“Take me home first! I want to take a shower, smell of sweat. Not good with grandfather and aunt if I come in a state of sweat,” said Rahma.

“Iya. I take you to the boarding place,” said Rendi.

Rendi directs her car to Rahma's boarding house. Arriving at the boarding house Rahma went straight to her room to bathe. Rendi waits for Rahma in the living room. Twenty minutes later Rahma came out of her room and approached Rendi. Rahma looks fresher.

“Come we leave now!” Rahma out of the temple. Rendi got out of the chair and followed Rahma.

At the Sultan's house. Claudia's mother welcomes Rahma with joy.

“How are you? It has long never come to home,” said Claudia's mother while splashing with Rahma.

“Alhamdullilah. Fine, Aunt,” replied Rahma.

“You're busy, huh? Get out of town,” asked Claudia's mother.

“Iya, Aunt,” replied Rahma.

Mr. Sultan came out of his study and approached them. Rahma saluted Mr. Sultan.

“How are you, Rahma?” ask Mr. Sultan.

“Good, Cake,” replied Rahma.

“Come sit down first!” Claudia's mother invites Rahma to sit on the sofa. Randy did not join them. He went to his room to take a shower.

“Still frequent out of town?” ask Mr. Sultan.

‘Still, Cake. Next week Rahma wants to go to Sragen,” replied Rahma.

“To Sragen? Fun, dong. Aunt wants to come along. Aunty has never been to Sragen,”, said Claudia's mother.

“Come with you, Auntie. Calculate refreshing,” said Rahma.

“Later Aunt troubles you. You will want to work not to go for a walk,” said Claudia's mother.

“Kan, there is Mr. Rendi who will accompany Auntie on a walk,” Rahma said.

“Ah, must be difficult to ask to be delivered with Rendi. Rendi always follows wherever you go,” Claudia's mother said.

Suddenly Claudia's mother remembered something.

“Tante until forgot to offer you a drink,” said Claudia's mother.

“What do you want to drink?” ask Claudia's mother.

“Cold white water only,” replied Rahma.

“White water supply? Aunt make syrup, yes.” Claudia's mother headed to the kitchen.

A few minutes later he brought a glass of syrup and a jar filled with snacks for Rahma.

“Diminum the syrup first.” Claudia's mother put the glasses and jars on the table.

“Thank you. Aunt.” Rahma drank the syrup for half a glass. Then he put the glass back on the table.

“How about playing golf? Fun, no?” ask Claudia's mother.

“Fun, Aunt. But unfortunately there is something disturbing the scenery,” replied Rahma with annoyance.

“What do you mean?” ask Claudia's mother.

“There is a golfing but his hands while wandering in the body of the caddy,” replied Rahma with goosebumps.

‘Masa, anyway?” ask Claudia's mother not to believe it.

“Said Mr. Rendi and caddy, Mr. Bobby did like that. So they are common,” Rahma said.

“Indeed like someone playing golf while having fun with his caddy. But only a few people. Not everything is like that,” said Mr Sultan.

Rendi came out of her room. She finished the shower. He sat across from Grandpa. He took a snack from the jar and ate the cake.

“Rendi. Rahma said she was going to Sragen. Mama so want to join Rahma,” said Claudia's mother.

Rendi turned to Rahma.

“When you to Sragen?” asked Rendi while chewing on the cake.

“Front senin. The same Mr. Barli. Said Mr. Barli, he wants to take his wife,” replied Rahma.

“Can you bring a wife?’ ask Claudia's mother.

“Bby, Aunt. Each employee gets a one-room hotel ration, so can bring a wife,” replied Rahma.

“Tante want to come,” said Ms. Claudia.

“Mama has never been to Sragen. Mama wants to see the city of Sragen,” replied Claudia's mother.

Rendi sighed.

“Ma. Rendi wants to accompany Rahma to work not for the streets,” said Rendi who tried to give understanding to Claudia's mother.

“Mama also want to join Rahma working,” said Ms. Claudia.

“Let's Mama upset then soy sauce because of taking Rahma everywhere,” said Rendi.

“I don't need to be sent. I can go with Mr. Barli. Mr. Rendi accompanied Aunt Claudia on a walk,” Rahma said.

“No need! Auntie wants to see you work. Aunty curious how you work like,” said Claudia's mother.

“True, yes. If cape don't complain!” said Rendi.

“Iya. Mama will not complain,” replied Claudia's mother.

“Daddy, can I come with Rahma and Rendi?” ask Claudia's mother.

“Bby. But don't forget souvenirs for Dad!” answer Mr. Sultan.

“Good, Dad,” said Ms. Claudia.

Rendi could not stand her stomach was hungry.

“Ma. The food is ready, isn't it? Rendi was hungry,” said Rendi as she rubbed her stomach.

“Already. Come on we.” Claudia's mother moved from the sofa to the dining table.
