The next day, Lea shopped the ingredients that would be used to make steamed bowls. This time, he will make a variety of flavors, ranging from original flavors like old-time steamed sponge to the present such as tiramisu, cheese, green tea, chocolate, and strawberry.
Lea has also set up social media accounts to promote her trading. Dayyan will also help Lea by bringing the steamed sponge to school and then leave it in the cafeteria.
Despite selling, Lea still eager to find a job. After looking for work, Lea started making cakes, then later sold the cakes in the shophouse that he rented at a low price because the shop owner was the owner of the house he also rented.
Lea smiled with relief because on the first day of selling, the steamed sponge had sold a lot. Some orders through social media have also been received by Lea, although not as many as buyers directly.
While waiting for Dayyan to pick up, Lea opened social media to re-promote her merchandise. While busy uploading some photos and videos, Lea got an order from someone and asked him to deliver the order. Initially, Lea was happy and ready to deliver as requested by the buyer, but he became hesitant when he knew the address to be addressed.
‘Here is the address of Pak Chan’ Gumam Lea apartment slowly. ‘Stupid time, after all not just him who lives there’ Mumbled Lea again.
After Dayyan arrived, Lea immediately took her to deliver the order to the address of the apartment that was also occupied by Chan.
Thirty minutes apart, Lea and Dayyan had already arrived in front of the tall, towering luxury building gallantly.
“You wait here only, let brother who entered” Titah Lea while carrying a steamed sponge that has been wrapped neatly.
“Yakin don't want to be accompanied?” Tanya Dayyan was convincing.
“Iya” Reply Lea as she passes from the presence of Dayyan.
The first time Lea entered the apartment. Previously, he only knew of Chayra if her brother lived here. Lea searched the location of the security post to ask and it turned out that the message was the security officer himself.
“Can I take a ride to the toilet?” Ask Lea who can no longer bear to urinate.
“Please, but the toilet at the post is being damaged. You can go to the toilet in the parking lot” said the security guard while showing the location of the toilet.
Lea breezed following the direction from the middle-aged man after saying thank you.
Like a boy who got a new toy, Lea smiled as she found the location of the toilet she was looking for. Lea was surprised to see someone she knew walking closer, she immediately hid behind a wall. Lea was stunned when she saw Chan and Celia walking hand in hand toward the car she had been riding in. His mind began to calm down, there were so many things he wanted to ask. Why is Celia in Chan's apartment? Why are they out together? Where are they going? Has Chan really accepted the match? Why didn't Chan or his agency clarify anything?. Without feeling the clear details just flow from both corners of his eyes.
‘Stupid basis! They are so compatible, why am I so greedy?’ Leah murmured, then moved from her hiding place.
Seeing Lea return with a face that was not cheerful as before, the security officer asked, “Have you found the location of the toilet?”
Lea simply replied with a nod of her head.
“Did something happen? Is anyone bothering you or has the toilet door broken?” Scratch again.
Lea shook her head, “I'm fine, thanks for asking and ordering my merchandise” He said, then passed leaving the security officer who was still confused but did not dare to ask.
Just like the security guard, Dayyan was also confused to see Lea walking while daydreaming.
“What's up?” Ask Dayyan.
Lea shook her head, “Come, rumah” Excited.
“Have you met the buyer?”
Lea nodded her head, “Come, jalan” He said as he patted Dayyan's shoulder which began to turn on his motorcycle engine.

Lea opened her cake shop in the morning excitedly. He did not want to be carried away by Chan.
‘I'm sure, I don't like it. It must be just a sense of admiration, not liking’ said Lea reassured himself.
Whistling voice made Lea turn her head in surprise, “Chay..
Chayra smiled widely, making her narrow eyes more invisible, “Today, I want to help you until the store closes”
Lea clucked, “Are you on the run?”
Chayra glared, a second later smiling sumringah as if without sin, “More.
Lea shook her head, already understand the nature of her best friend, “This time why again?” Ask.
“Sister doesn't allow me to study abroad. I kept my promise to graduate on time. I know, my grade is mediocre, but.. importantly I have graduated now” Complain Chayra.
“How's your mom? Does he allow to study abroad?”
Chayra was silent, seemed to think for a moment, then said “As long as you allow, I also definitely agree. Akh. I'd love to hit him”
“True, he does suck. I also want to beat him to the hospital!” Lea answered unconsciously.
Chayra's eyebrows are linked to Lea's words, “Barusan, what did you say?” Ask.
“Hah?... Ak. I will defend you. Don't you want to beat up your sister?!” Said Lea clumsily.
Chayra immediately hugged Lea with haru, “You do understand me the most. I did want to beat up big brother, but I wouldn't be willing if someone else did it” Protests on Lea.
Leah smiled at the words of her best friend. Although often quarreled, but Chan is a man who Chayra respects. Chan is not only the older brother but also the father of Chayra.
“You should be grateful for your life. There must be a lot of people out there who envy you. Than like me. I struggle alone, even have to sell cakes because I have not got a job” said Lea with a bitter smile.
Chayra looked at Lea, she felt guilty for making her best friend sad, “Sorry, I didn't mean.”.
Not done Chayra talk, Lea flinch first, “It's okay. Now, help me put this together if you want to get some lunch. You're not here just to watch me sell, are you?”
Chayra clucked, then took a tray containing steamed sponge with various flavors and arranged it in a display case.
.
.
Lea and Dayyan return home after Chayra's car moves out of sight. Of course Chayra did not come home empty-handed, Lea brought a box of steamed sponge to Chayra and her mother. Because he was tired, Lea went straight to the room to rest upon arrival at home. From morning, Lea had been shopping for materials to make steamed sponge, then make it herself, guarding and serving shoppers until the store closed.
‘Because of keeping the store while chatting with Chayra, I so did not check the phone today’ said Lea while taking a flat object from inside her bag.
Fearful of feeling for Chan, Lea decides to meet the Sun. If he met her for real, maybe he could be closer to her.
