Chapter 17: Season of Taste - Sincerity and Patience Simple but difficult
"I can't just sit back and not fight to get his heart back! See you later I can get you back Brahma. Because you're the only one who was created for me, not for anyone else." Alana smirked staring at the reflection in the mirror of her room. She really will do anything to get her ambition and obsession to win the heart of the man she has loved all this time. She is a typical woman who never gives up and even exceeds her ambitions.
Alana started polishing her face with light powder and using a bright red lipstick. "Perfect!"
That smile really shows in his fierce gaze. Alana will do everything she can to get what she wants because since childhood she always gets what she wants without exception.
Alana started walking out of her room and then she went down the stairs with her two feet wearing high heels. Some of the maids standing there bowed to her because Alana's attitude was really outrageous. Many waiters have complained about Alana's attitude all this time. She really can't be nice to the maids she enslaves all the maids with her rules that no one has ever thought about. She always demands perfection in everything. She will fire at will without even giving a warning letter.
The maid at Alana's house often changes every week and sometimes there is a new maid who only works at her house one day and then the next day is dishonorably fired. Alana's attitude is really outrageous, she doesn't even think about the fate of others. She only sees it from one side because according to her they are the only ones who need work at home, not her and her family.
As usual Alana's house is always busy with reporters waiting outside the fence of her house. Because coincidentally, Alana's father ran for the Regent of Malang. In fact, it is not uncommon for her father to spend so much money, almost billions for her black campaign.
"You have a habit of wasting money on unimportant things!" Alana penetrated very annoyed with the attitude of her father who always had ambitions to get a position as regent in Malang. Actually she did not like it if her father was elected Regent in Malang.
Alana immediately got out in a black Jeep. She came out of the fence but several reporters surrounded her. Alana's attitude is considered very cool at all. She even honked the reporter to get out of her way. Then she immediately sped her car at a very high speed. "To hell with everything!" Alana cursed because she didn't like the circumstances that made her have to look good in the public eye. Even she had to lose her true love. All because of her father who strictly forbade her not to have a relationship with the man of her dreams. She did not accept that moment when the man of her dreams chose to marry another woman without fighting for her who desperately loved the man of her dreams. She will hold him accountable for that love. In fact, she will do anything to get what he wants.
"I will never allow my ambition to get to you. I will fight for you even though the circumstances are different. Because you are only mine, not her." Alana said in her small heart while driving her jeep at average speed to sweep the streets. She really didn't care about any of that.
Malang city streets are suddenly very congested. She saw many people who were holding a large demonstration. They are workers who ask for clarification on the Minimum Wage for Malang city which has not changed at all. They really filled the streets of Malang city so that Alana was really annoyed. She may honk repeatedly but is ignored.
"Damn they all make me really sick! It's useless for them to stage a massive protest if they end up losing their jobs! How stupid of them all!" Alana grumbled very annoyed. She looked at the woman's face.
Alana grumbled incoherently in every sentence that came out of her mouth. She looked very annoyed at whatever happened.

At the Nusantara restaurant. Brahma tried to continue to enjoy his work even though a lot of dishes were piled up in the restaurant. He is grateful for whatever God has given him. Even if the salary is not much. He also plans to work as an online motorcycle taxi to earn extra money. He will do anything for his family.
The restaurant where Brahma worked was very crowded. Even the work did not end at that time until late in the evening. It so happened that Brahma ended right away and he received only a fifty thousand rupiah note as wages. But he was grateful at that time because God still gave him a little sustenance to live.
"Finally the work is done and I can buy sweet martabak for my wife at home. I hope she likes what I bring." Brahma muttered in his heart while getting ready to go home. He will buy his wife's favorite sweet martabak at the Malang city square.

Gladys was a little annoyed to see Nadia's behavior which was really outrageous. She didn't think that her best friend would actually become her mortal enemy for now. "I didn't think that you were really going too far Nadia. What do you want from me?" She snorted in annoyance. Even she did not accept that Nadia really ruined her life starting from her career and her love story also ended. Her life was even more messy when Nadia actually destroyed the boat that was already floating on the ocean but he gave a wave that hit the boat to pieces.
Everything was very painful for Gladys at that time. She really can't do anything other than she is grateful for whatever happens in her life even if it's not in line with her heart. Patience and sincerity are two simple sentences but it will be difficult for anyone to do.
"I know every exam will come at the wrong time," Gladys breathed very heavily at that time. She has surrendered to the test that has been given by God, the owner of life. She will go through the twists and turns of her life even though it is very difficult for her.

Brahma was already at his wife's favorite sweet martabak street vendor. He ordered a special moonlit portion with chocolate and cheese without nuts because his wife is allergic to nuts. He couldn't wait to give the sweet martabak to his beloved wife at home.
"Hope you like it Sekar." Brahma said in his small heart while waiting for the sweet martabak he had ordered at the street vendor. He waited in a chair that had been provided by the street vendor.
Brahma started to smile because he was still grateful for the sustenance that God had given him. Although a little but at least it can provide real pleasure.

Chapter 18: Season of taste : Only buy one?!
At home Sekar is waiting for her husband to come home. She had already prepared dinner even though it was instant noodles because the food was finished without any leftovers when her brother came.
"Hopefully you understand my situation, because there's no way I would abandon a guest." Sekar sighed so heavily, especially when she listened to the spicy mouths of his brothers. She knew that her brother did have a husband who had a high income while she only had a husband. as a sales amateur.Her husband is also still studying for a bachelor's degree until now.
It's already 7 pm. Sekar was waiting at the door of her room. She already prepared food
"At this hour, Brahma still hasn't come?" Sekar asked while looking at the clock on the wall that kept on scrolling every second.
*
In the city park, Brahma is still waiting for his sweet martabak which the street vendors are still making. He got the number ten queue, which means it's still a long time because many visitors bought several martabak while he only had one box.
Brahma is still faithfully waiting in line, even though he has been waiting in line for almost an hour. He hoped that Sekar would like the sweet martabak he had bought at his favorite place.
"Brahma!"
Brahma then turned and saw Alana's figure behind him. He just smiled at Alana.
"It turns out that you are also a regular martabak here?" Alana asked with a smile on her face. "I didn't think that we could actually meet without us telling each other. Could it be that we were meant to be together?"
Brahma looked into Alana's eyes. He saw that Alana was lying. He knew what Alana had been thinking at this point.
"I've been a regular here since the first together with now before I met you," said Brahma. "We can't be partners because I already have someone who is able to love me and accept me as I am."
"I'm not sure if you'll be able to put up with that girl. It's not like that, but I feel that if you two don't match at all," said Alana, grinning at Brahma in front of her.
"I also don't know what will happen to Alana in the future. It was all a plan from our Lord. Humans can only hope and pray while God determines the course of our scenario. I have surrendered my life to God alone. So I never worry about what will happen next."
"You will never be happy together with Sekar. You'll see later I will make you turn away from Sekar. Because you are only mine not yours him!" Alana mumbled in her small heart. In fact she was sure that one day Brahma could turn away from Sekar and return with him. That was what she wanted.
Half an hour later the order from Brahma was ready to be brought. Then he immediately said goodbye to Alana. "Lan, then I'll say goodbye to go home. I didn't have anyone watching to see Sekar waiting for me at home," she said.
"Hmmm."
Alana looks pursed lips because she was very upset. Brahma's attitude completely changed with her. She wished Brahma could act like she used to. But the reality is a condition that makes them never able to become what they used to be.
Brahma got up from his seat and walked to his motorbike. Alana's eyes did not leave Brahma's shadow at all. He didn't know what else to do to get what he had wanted all this time. For him Brahma is a figure who is able to make him believe in true love but the reality is different and inversely proportional. Brahma had gone with another woman and even made a supposed promise to her.
"It's all because of dad! I should be the one side by side with being friendly, not that girl!" Alana hissed very annoyed. She suppressed every word in the sentence that had been issued at that time softly. She really didn't accept it at all.
The shadow of Brahma's back had simply disappeared from sight. He felt that the name really left him without a trace of feeling for him." Is there no taste left at all for me? " asked his heart.

At a cafe, Jessica and the others were enjoying a birthday party from Romlah. She waited for Brahma but never came, including her other friends.
"Now it's really hard to hang out with Brahma," said Hendro.
"Yes, that's when someone is married and has a new life. They will not even pay attention to their old life at all," Jessica replied looking at some of her friends who had gathered to celebrate Romlah's birthday party. They deliberately celebrated Romlah's impromptu birthday party and gave Romlah a surprise.
"I swear I was really annoyed with the killer lecturer! Yes, I had an appointment with him a week ago. But in fact he canceled the promise. I don't even know what to do anymore! "Hendro was very upset. He really wanted to submit a thesis title but in fact the lecturer wasn't even there and even canceled his appointment 5 minutes after he arrived at a cafe.
" Geez! It's just your fate that is unlucky Hendro!" said Fauzan who looked at Hendro.
"Don't laugh you guys! I know you guys have already assessed the title of the thesis! Moreover, the Kunyuk, without us realizing it, used his modus operandi against the female ranks, including his supervisor. Indeed, the aura of Brahma makes women's hearts melt," said Hendro.
They all laughed because they were no longer surprised by Brahma's attitude, which was able to conquer the hearts of any woman. He can no longer doubt his ability to become a conqueror of women's hearts. That predicate is always attached to Brahma.
Brahma has the title as the conqueror of every woman's heart. Starting from the young to the middle age. Including the killer lecturer who was able to be conquered by a Brahma with sweet words.

Exactly at 8 pm. Brahma has arrived at the residence of the Sekar family. Because for now he and Sekar are living there. He immediately parked his motorbike in the yard of the Sekar family's house. Then he locked his motorbike. Coincidentally, the area where the Sekar family's house is located is quite prone to theft of motorbikes. Not infrequently within a week there are people who lose their motorbike one to five times.
Brahma immediately headed to the main door of the Sekar family house, he couldn't wait to meet Sekar. He walked in carrying a crackle containing a box of Sekar's favorite sweet martabak. "I hope he likes what I have brought." She mumbled to herself and hoped that Sekar would like what she had brought after a long day of work outside.
CLICK! The door to the Sekar family's house was opened. Brahma saw his brother-in-law sitting leisurely in the living room.
"Wow! I think it has a sweet martabak aroma! Riyanti's eyes stared at a plastic bag that Brahma had brought.
Brahma just smiled because his goal was only to buy Sekar, his wife.
"If you only buy one, it means you never think that people in this house exist! Only his wife was bought. Where is he caring for his wife's family! Rianti's words really made Brahma just speechless at that time.
"You know that Sekar's husband has a mediocre salary, so how could he buy more than one box of sweet martabak. It's different with your husband, Rianti, who is a businessman." Sicily satire.
"Well, it can't be helped, Sekar is indeed a little stupid! Why did he choose a man whose salary makes his head spin around. Just look at him, he doesn't think of Sekar's family. He just walks away! Looks like Sekar really chose the wrong husband!" Rianti said with her spicy mouth.
Brahma did not heed the words of his brother-in-law. He chose to go straight to his room. Actually he felt very hurt by his brother-in-law's words that were so piercing to the heart and very spicy.
