Fatimah is busy working in one of the hotel rooms, suddenly Sofia comes to see her.
"Fatimah.." call Sofia in a high tone.
"Well, what's wrong, ma'am" replied Fatimah
"Basic, you're a woman who doesn't know shame, last night you stayed here the same Mr. Rahman right, don't pretend to bego, I already know even I saw myself on CCTV," snapped Sofia an emotion
"If so, why Mom?" ask Fatimah who is trying to be patient. "You still have why?, you know for yourself right, Mr. Rahman already have Fatimah's wife, you realize yourself dong, you are just housekeeping, just babu in this hotel, you know, you know, you know, you are just housekeeping, no need to be pretentious," said Sofia who pointed at Fatimah with her index finger.
"I'm surprised, Sofia's mother was prepared Mr. Rahman anyway, the wife is not, brother is not, but I always interfere in Mr. Rahman's life, sorry if I sassy Ma'am, I also have self-esteem, mother should not demean me like this" said Fatimah who began to run out of patience.
"Suppose you yes," said Sofia as her hand moved slapping Fatimah's face, Fortunately Sarah suddenly came to hold Sofia's hand.
"Don't touch Fatimah, or you I'll get kicked out of this hotel" Sarah said.
"Mom Sarah, I'm sorry Miss Sarah, I just.."
"What's free? do you want to do something here?" ask Sarah who cut Sofia's conversation.
Sofia hastily leaves for fear that Sarah will complain to Rahman.
"Fatimah, aren't you pa?" sarah hugged her sister.
"No pa pa kok kak, you should not have to threaten Bu Sofia like that, pity if she will be expelled, now you will find work increasingly difficult brother," said Fatimah in the arms of Sarah.
"You know, you're still thinking about Sofia, if you know yes, the sister doesn't like her, she's always kind of the same kind of friend Rahman, he used to love Rahman, but Rahman never responded to the woman who approached him, and now we both know why, because all this time brother Rahman likes you," explained Sarah staring at Fatimah.

After work Fatimah walked to the front of the hotel building, intending to wait for an online ojek, but suddenly Rahman's car stopped in front of him.
"Work up" Rahman said as he opened the car door. Fatimah hurriedly climbed up before anyone saw her.
Fatimah was very awkward in the car, she was even embarrassed by the incident last night where she spontaneously hugged Rahman in the dark.
"Why are you still waiting for a motorcycle taxi there, I told you, we have to go to work together and go home together" said Rahman who started the conversation.
"Yes, I thought my brother had come home" said Fatimah slowly.
Rahman smiled "Every night..."
"Oh yes tomorrow will be a work holiday, I want to work on college assignments at the house of Lilis," said Fatimah who cut Rahman's talk, intending to avoid the story about last night's trap.
"Oh okay, tomorrow I take you, yes" said Rahman who was ready to guard Fatimah.
"No, no" refused Fatimah
"No pa pa, no matter tomorrow I also do not work, I also need a holiday," said Rahman while glancing at Fatimah who had reddened her cheeks.

"What's Mom for? need a ride?" greet Rico who stopped his car in front of Sarah.
"No need, you go home, I'll wait for a taxi" Sarah chuckled.
"Be careful, taxi drivers today are difficult to believe, especially in this area," said Rico scare Sarah.
Sarah who began to fear was forced to climb into Rico's car because it was already early afternoon.
"Your car is finished tomorrow Sar, I have asked the workshop person to send directly to your home" said Rico who started the conversation.
"Thank you, I'm sorry I've been so bad thinking about you" said Sarah, who felt guilty.
"Yes together" replied Rico.
"You're not married yet, not afraid later the older it will not sell," joked Sarah who mocked Rico.
"Yesterday there was no right candidate" Rico said, glancing at Sarah.
"O. means now there is dong," said Sarah who stared at the glass.
"Yes that," said Rico as he glanced at Sarah.
Sarah feels like she's a fool for thinking Rico likes her from the start.
"Oh Sarah.so don't be pessimistic, the person she already has her own candidate," Sarah's mind .

Fatih who had come home from the hospital was lying in her room. Fatih pondered for a moment, he recalled how much Fatimah cared about him at the time of the accident.
Fatih begins to remember her past and the commitment she promised with Fatimah. When he changed his mind, "Said Fatimah, he married only based on coercion and wants a divorce in the near future, am I evil if I try to wait for him, he said, I really can't keep this up, I really can't forget Fatimah, maybe I should take Fatimah back, and keep my love as firm as I loved her first," batin Fatih who expects Fatimah back.

That night Fatimah stared at the window glass while contemplating her decision to try to be a good wife for Rahman.
"O Allah may this be the best way, may my heart be easy to build love in our household, I really do not want to be a wife of the ungodly," the dreamy interior of Fatimah.
Fatimah combed her hair while glazed, she tried to apply makeup on her face.
Rahman was waiting for Fatimah to eat in the dining room. Fatimah who came with pink Gamis and her hair unraveled beautifully making Rahman endlessly look at her in awe.
"Tumben did not wear the hijab" Rahman told Fatimah, who was sitting in front of him.
"It's too hot to have to wear a long hijab at home" Fatimah said as she poured Rahman some drinking water.
Fatimah's beautiful and not excessive makeup makes Rahman really admire the figure of his wife.
Rahman and Fatimah started eating together at the table. "In two days I have to go to Singapore, you want to come?" rahman looked at Fatimah.
"No, I'm going to college" Fatimah refused with a soft word.
"When I wish I could go there with you, I'll be gone for about a week, I'm afraid I can't hold back my longing when you're not with me," clearly Rahman was holding Fatimah's hand.
