The next day, Shireen goes to the repair shop to repair the damage to her car. He deliberately left his vehicle because he wanted to take care of the business he had.

At exactly 10 a.m., Shireen returned to the workshop to pay the bills. It turned out that what Alka gave him was not enough until he stopped him.

After payment, Shireen headed to Alka's place of business according to the address on the business card.

Once there, Shireen did not meet Alka. He asked the workers at the workshop.

"Mas Alka is out to pick up her son at school, maybe soon to be here" he said.

"Well, then I'll just wait for him" Shireen said, walking to the car.

Not until 15 minutes of waiting, Alka arrived at her workshop.

Shireen who saw the arrival of the man stared from his car. A moment fascinated by the good looks that Alka had when she opened her helmet.

"Mas, there was a beautiful woman coming. He wanted to meet, "one of the employees said.

"What's his name?" ask Alka.

"That's it, Mas!" appoint employees.

Alka turned her back to see Shireen walking towards her while throwing her smile.

Alka's employees left both.

Alka smiled faintly. "Why not call me first? I can transfer the money without bothering to come here" he said.

"It's okay, I just want to know your workshop."

"How short, Mother?" Alka took the wallet in her back pants pocket.

"Call me Shireen, too old to be called Ma'am by you" he said.

"Alright, Ma'am. Uh, Shireen," Alka's a little nervous. "How short is the cost?" continue asking.

"One million more, Mum."

Alka handed over the money at the request of the woman in front of her. "Sorry, it's been a hassle here."

"It's okay, Mum."

"In that case, I want to continue working again" said Alka.

"Yes, Mas. I say thank you, thank you" Shireen passed.

"Woman was beautiful, 'yes, Mas!" chirp one of the employees named Derry when Shireen's car leaves the workshop.

Alka just smiled faintly.

"May I have her cell phone number, Mommy?" ask Derry.

"I don't have any, anyways our problems are over, too" Alka replied.

"What problem do you have?" ask again.

"Yesterday afternoon I accidentally hit his car" Alka replied.

"Oh, so. If Mas Alka had not been married, a woman like her would have to be married in a hurry" he said.

"Why should you marry?"

"Later the hunt is taken by others, the woman was like an artist" said Derry.

Alka chuckled, "You're this!"

"It's true, Mas!" another employee named Rino.

"She said that, that woman was very pretty, right?" Derry turned his eyes to his friend.

"Yes, it's very pretty. I just have a wife who cannot turn to another heart" said Rino.

"I also have a wife and three children, it is impossible to betray our marriage" Alka said. "Back to work, don't talk anymore!" continued.

Both employees continued their work.
