After enjoying a full menu of dishes, the young people then sat in front of the terrace while continuing the conversation. Gwen's daughter's son has been taken by nanny, to continue the break. While Gwen, Barra, Aldo and Kayla are still talking with friends Gwen and Aldo.
“APa your activities now Robert.., you are too close yourself like.?” seeing Robert who had only been quietly listening since earlier, Gwen asked the man.
“Hempphh... I became a lecturer of Gwen.., in one of the universities in the city of Bandung. There is nothing I can be proud of, you know for yourself not how the life of lecturers in Indonesia, like teachers. This time, I was continuing my S3 studies at ITB, well so that I could reach my highest career as a Professor.” timidly R0bert answered Gwen's question.
“Wow. Do not just look at the success of a person from how many rupiahs go into his pocket. See also what his life purpose is. Being a teacher, a lecturer was a lot of charity kindness to the younger generation. To be able to devote knowledge, and what he knows to many people. Don't be discouraged.” Gwen immediately responded.
„True what my wife Robert said.., I'm proud of you. For now, it is still very rare that I meet someone who would devote my life to you. I congratulate you, hats off to you.” Barra came into response, following his wife.
Robert smiled shyly, then cupped both palms in front of his chest, to give thanks to his friends.
“What I've told Robert, never be discouraged. Be proud of what you are doing right now, with your accomplishments. In terms of education level, we congratulate you, because among us today, you are the one who took the highest level of Education.” Sitting next to her, Alana patted her shoulder and responded.
“Iya. yes.., thanks friends. It turns out that you are not taking my job lightly, In the future, I will be very proud of what I have been able to achieve in my career. Everyone has their own hand line, and what will be in accordance with their respective passions as well. Once again, thank you for all of your support.” Finally Robert smiled, and conveyed his thanks verbally.
„Okaylah Robert. Now we enjoy tonight, let's start again spending the snacks that have been served.” Aldo followed.
Like young children at his age, they then continue to enjoy snacks prepared by ART Gwen's house. They talked until nightfall, and without realizing the clockwork was approaching the number twelve. At last..
„Kak Barra.., Gwen, we've been talking here and there since. Without us knowing, look at the clock, it turns out it is almost at the number twelve, if so, we will go home first huh Gwen. Pity my son at home, only with his omens.” Novi reminded them to end the conversation.
“Iya Gwen.., Brother Barra, we too. Robert still had to drive me home, because he had already promised my husband.” Alana finally followed what Novi said.
„Siap Alana, you know not. Since High School I can't lie to you.” Robert stood up.
Finally the four young men rushed to their car. Aldo, Kayla, Gwen and Barra took them to the front gate,

Hans comes to Cynthia who looks dreamy in the front seat. The man was informed by his wife Josephine, who said the woman had spent time daydreaming. Finally, with the knowledge of his wife, Hans approached Cynthia.
‘Good day Cynth... how about you?? I see, you've been daydreaming more by yourself. Is there anything you're thinking, or bothering your mind Cynth.?” Hans sat down in front of his best friend, staring into the woman's face,
Cynthia seemed hesitant to say what was on her mind to the man, but when she saw Hans smiling and nodding his head, finally..
„Hempphh.., actually not my problem Hans. Merely, I could not bear to see any sadness looming on my husband's face, after this morning getting a video call from high school friends from Jakarta.” in a soft voice, Cynthia began to tell stories.
“That's Hans, I saw more of a sort of sadness on Asep's face. My husband kind of misses the moments of being in his country, Indonesia.” continued Cynthia, continued,
Hans smiled then took a few breaths, then…
“Cynthia... calm yourself girls.. Not sad as Asep feels. Maybe like a longing for friends, also his hometown. Because I read from the chat sent by Boss Director, Aldo and Kayla also followed their return to Indonesia. At the barbeque, of course your husband's friends, will tell your husband.” Hans seemed to be trying to give an explanation.
“Why don't you arrange a vacation to all deliver your husband Cynthia. I'm also interested in following you, I'll also bring Josephine along. We can double date in the country of Indonesia, then join our Boss family.” continued Hans, making a proposal.
Cynthia looked into Hans's face, completely absent in mind if she was going to take her husband back to her country. For a while, the woman seemed to weigh in on her thoughts, but eventually…
“True what you said Hans. I'll take my husband to talk. It's possible that my son's father thinks that I don't have any savings, because he never asked me how much I paid when I worked at this company. Thanks Hans, for your brilliant idea. I'll be ready soon..” a smile begins to rise on Cynthia's lips.
Hans smiled, When Returning saw his best friend had returned cheerful. It seems that the idea of a vacation, very fun, can momentarily give up the routine, throw away negative energy, and add positive energy intake to his body.
‘Now refocus works Cynthia. Soon, there will be a winter holiday in the country. It would be better, we leave this country some time, and seek experience by visiting a tropical country. Arrange everything, but do not forget I am Cynthia..” Hans stood back up, then patted the woman on the shoulder three times, and left her alone.
