"I'm sorry Yu, not that I don't have feelings with you, you've helped me a lot Yu is not good if we are dating if it's both have a sense I want us to be serious directly Yu"setya's advice to Ayu

"Yes, Ta, I'm going to introduce you to my parents"

They already had the intention to seriously Ayu then invited Setya to one of the restaurants for dinner and Ayu also invited her parents with the intention of introducing her man her dream to her parents.

"Mom, Dad, then, we'll have a mall meal outside of Yah Ayu wanting to introduce someone to Mom and Dad"

"Haaa? who's Yu to introduce you to?"ask Ayu's mother

"It's late tonight just a little night mom and dad will know"

"Well, it's gone" Ayu's mother couldn't refuse her daughter's invitation.

At night Ayu and her mother seemed to be getting ready while her father was waiting in the car,

after they were ready they went to the restaurant that Ayu meant after arriving they immediately sat at one of the tables that had been ordered by Ayu.

"Father same mother order first" while waiting for the arrival of Setya.

"Where is the person Ayu wants to introduce to Dad and Mom has been waiting for half an hour yet to come"

"Prophey Ma'am may be on the way"

Setya was a bit late because he overslept and was slow to pray before going to the restaurant he took the time to pray first and then said goodbye to his mother. After a while Setya finally arrived at the restaurant with a simple appearance.

"Eeeh that he's come" Ayu said

Seeing Setya's very simple appearance Ayu's mother noticed him from head to toe she could already guess that Setya was just an ordinary man.

"Sorry late Yu fell asleep and continued to pray Isya used to be here"Setya apologized to Ayu

"Ooh yeah, it's okay to sit down first"

"Dad, mother, this is Setya, this is the person Ayu wants to introduce to Father and Mother"

"Assalamualaikum sir,, Ma'am,"sapa Setya

"Waalaikumsalam" said Ayu's father

"Ooh yaaa Ta you order food only we have ordered earlier"Ayu then called one of the waiters at the restaurant.

After they finished ordering the food not long after that the food they ordered came they started dinner. Ayu's mother continued to see Setya with a less happy face

"What are you doing?"tanya Ibu ayu who is known by the name of Lastri.

Setya was a little surprised and answered

"My job as a religious teacher"

"Mom, Mom, you've eaten first and then just have a chat"yu tried to stop their conversation for a while.

After they finished eating Ayu then explained back to her mother about Setya's work

"So Setya is a teacher at one of the private schools"

"Ooh teacher, what's the parent's job?"Miss Pastri asked again

Setya was a little awkward then replied

"My father was a furniture craftsman Ma'am if my mother didn't work"

"Oooh son of a furniture craftsman, from where you can get to know Ayu"

"So Setya is Ayu's friend from SMA bu only after Ayu returned to Indonesia to meet her again"

Ayu's father just silently listened to their speaker.

"Where is your car parked? I don't see any cars coming just now"ask again

"Sorry Mom I ride a motorcycle" answered the man who is often called Tata

"Mom, why is her nanyanya's mother"Ayu began to be unhappy with her mother's questions to Setya.

"You already know not with Ayu's father, he is a successful businessman and has dozens of companies in Indonesia"

Hearing the words of Miss Lastri Setya could only bow.

"Mom, that's why you are"

"Ooh yaaa Yu I say goodbye first well because there is a job that I have to finish, Mr. Bu I say yes assalamualaikum"Setya permission to go home and apply to leave the restaurant

"Ta,,, first Ta, then,"Tayu tried to stop Setya but was not harried and Setya passed away feeling a little disappointed.

"Tu kan Setua has gone home mother who asked him the question - questions like that"Ju was a little disappointed with his mother

"Udah let's go home come on pah,,"take Ayu and her husband home.

Arriving at the house ayu looks disappointed with the treatment of his mother to Setya he then went into the room and locked it and tried to contact Setya but there was no answer from Setya.

The next day Ayu's mother approached him

"Yu,, if you want to dance to that man who is clearly the seed of his bare weight at least like our family is"

"Emang Setya why ma'am, he's a good man Sholeh is diligent"

"Listen first to Yu,,,,"

Ayu then passed away leaving her mother to leave for her office. Ayu tries to contact Setya repeatedly and finally responds by Setya.

"Ta, I'm sorry my mother last night well you don't take heart yah" said ayu in her message

Then Setya replied

"Yeah Yu it's okay I understand"

"I taught you first Yu has entered my hour now"Suju continued

"Well, Ta, you're the spirit"

Setya looked less enthusiastic when teaching after last night's incident,

"Eeeh, sir, a handsome teacher, pouting his face like the spirit of dong pak" said one of his students trying to comfort Setya

"Well, you are there where I frown"Setya denied with a smile.

After finishing teaching Setya then immediately go home he was still thinking about the questions that Mother Lastri asked last night he realized that the Lastri family is a wealthy family and certainly difficult to accept people seem to be part of the family but Setya does not give up just like he loves Ayu and has the determination to continue fighting for Ayu.

"This will not be young but I must not give up so easily, hopefully, every step and decision I make in the ridhoi of God"Setya re-energized himself a few days later his spirit was back to normal on one side Ayu also kept thinking how to convince his parents that Setya was the best choice for him.

Ayu has been very steady in choosing Setya to be his priest in the future but only because of differences in social status he and Setya are difficult to be together,but Ayu has decided not to be with another man, only Setya whom she admired for a long time and difficult to change.

"why the people see the poor richness of a person when happiness cannot be measured only by money and property" said Ayu in his heart.
