Fatma left the living room to the kitchen to ask her waitress to serve drinks and snacks. Meanwhile, Tea appears to be sweating as Mita, Bambang and Niken stare at her together.
Tea even has difficulty swallowing its own saliva due to being too afraid. The intimidating gazes of those who had left Tea at a loss for words. Not even a question was asked, Tea was already nervous because he was afraid of not being able to answer all the questions.
Fatma finally came up with a tray of juice. Then, two of his servants followed with trays containing snacks.
"Come on! Drink first. You must be thirsty for traveling long distances." Fatma also serves juice in front of each person. "Come, the food is also tasted. It's the garden itself." He chuckled, sitting near Tea.
Food served in the form of cassava chips, steamed sponge and other snacks. Fatma explained that the materials to make the snacks were taken directly from the private garden behind the house, as well as the family's garden located not far from there.
Seeing there are cassava chips, Niken became interested. His hands plucked some of the cassava chips. "Rem ... Wow, this aunt tastes really good and also crisp. Really delicious," he said with a mouth filled with cassava chips.
So delicious Niken to lick his fingers because the salt of his cassava chips stuck to his finger.
Seeing Niken so greedy eating cassava chips, making Mita and Bambang so tempted. They were timid, but the insistence of Fatma made the two start taking cassava chips and tasting other foods.
"How, Mba? What tastes delicious?" ask Fatma curiously. From being caught by the netraya, I think Mita and family really enjoy the dishes served.
Mita nodded, her eyes cracking as a piece of steamed sponge entered her mouth. His tongue was kept swaying. The combination of purple sweet potato flavor with other ingredients is so fitting and the soft texture makes every bite makes anyone who eats it do not want to stop.
"It tastes really delicious. Mba doesn't know that you're good at making cakes. Since when are you good at cooking, instead of being lazy to cook? Let alone cooking, enter the kitchen you do not want," said Mita, with a mouth filled with sponge.
Hearing the words, made Niken round his eyes. Didn't know before, that the Tantenya was not good at cooking. Fatma chuckled, "What Mba said. Never mind cooking, even entering the kitchen I rarely. Hehehe, but now I'm starting to learn to cook. Yes, as Mba and others have seen. All of this is cooking I made myself. Yeah, even a little servant-assisted. I assure you, everything is purely the result of my own thinking."
Fatma also dropped her gaze on the beloved princess, who had been visibly riled up. He clasped Tea's hand, stroking her slowly. His eyes blinked once, as a gesture to his daughter to remain calm.
Tea nodded slowly. There is no sentence that can be said now, other than thanking the Creator for still giving him the opportunity to continue to serve the woman who has given birth to him.
"There's a question for you." Bambang also opened the conversation.
"What is it, Dad?"
"What question, Mom?" Fatma and Niken became enthusiastic, as did Tea. However, not with Mita who pouted and the feeling began to feel bad.
Bambang also brandished cassava chips in his right hand. "What is an adventurer and his hobby of jungle exploration? Come on, what are those chips?" he continued, while devouring the cassava chips in his hand.
"Come on! Who can answer?" Bambang also tapped his thigh with his index finger, waiting for answers from Fatma, Niken and Tea. Bambang deliberately did not glance at Mita because he knew the nature of the wife, who really did not like to be invited to joke.
Fatma, Tea and Niken were made to think hard to find an answer to the question. "An adventurous character and a hobby of jungle exploration? About what?" Niken repeated the question. His eyes rolled upwards, trying to solve the puzzle.
Fatama and Tea did the same thing. Meanwhile, Bambang seemed happy when he saw the confused expressions of his sister-in-law, nephew and daughter.
So in contrast to Mita who put on a face less comfortable, making Bambang Adi Atmaja lazy to see it.
"How, does anyone know the answer?" bambang asked in an amused chuckle, covering his mouth with one hand. Holding back the laughter as no one had yet been able to answer his riddle.
"Had I given up!" niken raised his hand.
"I am too." Tea raised her hand and gave up. "Quickly, Uwa tell me what the answer is," he said impatiently.
Fatma glanced at her daughter and niece who had already given up. "Yes, I gave up too. What is the answer then?"
Bambang smiled triumphantly as his question made the women raise their hands and give up.
"What is the love of adventure and hobby of exploring the forest, the answer ... Is ..."
Suddenly the atmosphere became tense. Bambang also creates a sound like a drum that is hit, making the tension even more pronounced. Everyone is waiting for the answer.
"The answer is, KRIPIK SI GUNDUL ... Haha."
He laughed the hardest among the others. Then, followed by Niken who laughed even though he felt the answer was really not connected.
Fatma also laughed. He briefly examined the answer, but in the end he laughed as well. Laugh the loudest.
As for Tea, she was quite happy with the joke. I don't know why his mind is like it's somewhere else.
The atmosphere of the room became crowded when Bambang issued his crisp joke, which certainly sparked laughter there. Even though he is no longer young, Bambang still likes to joke around. He often makes jokes that if Mifa says it is, a crisp joke.
For Mita, Bambang's laugh is not funny, but according to others it is so inviting laughter. Mita even gets weird on her own and wonders, where's the funny place?
In the midst of family happiness, Niken also checked his phone. No calls or word from Ardi.
"Sorry, Niken wants to call Ardi first. Ask him about it." He also shuffled from his seat. "Niken go back first, yeah." Without waiting for Bambang or Mita's approval, he just left.
Mita immediately understood the princess's uneasiness. Seeing Niken agitated, Fatma could not help but ask.
"What's wrong? Who's Ardi? Is she Niken's husband?"
The question got a nod of the head from Mita. "Yes, Ardi is Niken's husband. Actually he also wanted to come here, but this morning Ardi got news from his father who was in England, saying that his mother was sick. Finally, Ardi made a direct flight to England this morning as well."
Fatma's mouth was round, "Oh ... May her mother be all right, Mba."
"Amine ... Please pray yes. Hopefully besan I was given health and could soon come to Indonesia because at the wedding they could not attend" said Mita assures, at once explained that he and Bambang had never met Ardi's parents.
"Then I became curious about waiting for you, Mba. Hopefully I can quickly meet him," Fatma said looking out, right where Niken was standing with his phone already in his ear.
Fatma guessed, currently Niken is waiting for her husband to answer her phone call.
It does. Niken was waiting for Ardi to pick up his phone. He was very worried because Ardi did not answer.
"Where is he, why haven't my calls been lifted?"
Niken continued to wonder about the existence and news of the husband. I don't know what Ardi's doing there? What does Melati do so that Ardi is so busy, even difficult to contact?
"Thank you for my phone, Ardi!"
