Dinner

They talked about various things, from Amanda's career, Lara's boutique to the company branch in Turkey which was held by Bram,  joked with joyful laughter, like a harmonious family. Before long, a luxury car entered the mansion's yard, Rafa with his wife Ajeng, and their son Felix entered the mansion. Instantly the living room turned cold, full of awkwardness.

"Hello, Dad," said Ajeng kindly to Leon and extended his hand in greeting

"Yes Ajeng, please come in," said Leon to Ajeng

"How are you daddy?" asked Ajeng while still hugging Leon

“It's almost 7 years you've never been here, then only now are you asking how I'm doing? Where have you been, Ajeng? " Leon asked Ajeng

"Don't be like that Daddy, I also praying for you," replied Ajeng kindly, while Rafa and Felix were still standing without saying hello.

"Come on in, why are you standing there, sit down Rafa and my grandson Salix," said, Leon

"F-E-L-I-X," said Felix and came in to greet Leon, while Rafa was still standing near the door.

"What? You, right?" said Amanda, shocked to see Felix, but Felix only saw him ignorant and sat across from Amanda

"So you already know each other? The last time you met was when you were 4 years old, ”said Ajeng to the two of them, but they both just kept quiet

"Why are you still silent? Amanda, let's greet Felix, he is your older cousin, ”said Laras to his daughter, making Amanda relented and reached out, but was pushed over by Felix.

"What is this? Why are you like that Felix to your younger cousin? Did she do something wrong? Talk to grandfather, "said Leon

"No grandpa," said Felix briefly and grabbed Amanda's hand, forcing a handshake

“Rafa! Come on in, ”said Leon to Rafa

"Do I deserve to enter the house, where I am considered a murderer?" asked Rafa sarcastically

"Who said you were a murderer? Come in quickly!” Leon ordered

"Yes Pa," replied Rafa and he entered the living room to sit beside Felix

“Sis, can't you afford a watch? What time is it, it took you a long time to come, I'm already starving, ” said Bram, breaking the ice

"You don't know what traffic jams are like in Jakarta, huh?" Rafa asked Bram

"There are many reasons for you, I'm hungry, let's eat immediately," said Bramastya

"Yes, let's start dinner, Amanda please help Inaya in the kitchen to prepare dinner dishes, don't forget to serve the dishes you brought," Leon ordered to Amanda.

"Yes, Grandpa."

"And you're Felix, help Amanda," said Grandpa

"I'm a man grandpa, how come you help in the kitchen?" denied Felix, causing Rafa to step on his son's feet and Felix only grimaced

"I ... yes pa, yes Grandpa," said Felix standing up and then following Amanda

"I don't know if you are my cousin," said Amanda to Felix in the kitchen, but Felix was silent and did not answer Amanda.

"I apologize for my impoliteness this afternoon," said Amanda again, but Rafa looked away

“What's my fault for making you so ignorant? We are siblings, it's good that we have a good relationship, ”said Amanda, but Felix took a step forward to challenge Amanda

"First, you are noisy. Second, we are not blood cousins, my father is a stepchild, so you and I do not have any kind of sibling relationship. Third, I hate talking to strangers like you," Felix explained to Amanda, while Amanda was surprised at Felix's words, a second later Amanda ignored Felix and focused on preparing the food, while Felix sat quietly at the dining table.

"Man, try to eat my cake, it's really delicious" said Amanda kindly to Felix and gave him a piece of sponge cake.

"Unclean," Felix said harshly to Amanda

“This makes it hard for him to know, okay, if you don't want to, I'll just give Inayah, I can appreciate people's hard work more! " said Amanda, then gave a piece of sponge cake to Inayah, Inayah just smiled thanks and ate the cake.

"Whew is really good, it tastes really delicious, the sweetness is just right, the walnuts are really delicious, aunt likes non, tomorrow if you come here, make it again, okay," said Inayah

"Okay!" said Amanda to aunt full of enthusiasm

Felix looks at Amanda hatefully, for some reason but he hates her, the woman who seeks her grandfather's attention only for inheritance. Amanda is also not on the same level as her education, Amanda only has an undergraduate degree, while Felix has a postgraduate degree. Felix looked down on Amanda and glared at the girl.

"Felix, let's eat," Amanda asked. Amanda watched Felix's face asleep on the swing, indeed his face was handsome, his nose was sharp, his skin was white, his eyebrows were thick and his chin formed a cleft line.

However, unlike his cold and cool nature, even Amanda did not understand what was wrong with him so that Felix did not want to befriend or talk to her.

"Felix .. let's eat .." Amanda called again, but Felix still closed his eyes

"Felix, let's eat," said Amanda while shaking Felix's hand slowly, making Felix wake up from his sleep, and surprised to see Amanda in front of him.

"It's not easy to get close," said Felix, encouraging Amanda to be annoyed

"What am I wrong? Until you are so rich with me? "Asked Amanda

"I am disgusted," Felix replied ignorantly leaving Amanda, Amanda did not have time to confront Felix's words and was annoyed to stomp his feet

The atmosphere of the dinner was so solemn, especially Laras and Ajeng who were very close to cover up the dispute between Bram and Rafa, but Amanda still looked at Felix's annoyance, he couldn't stop thinking about Felix who was rude with him. Amanda looks at Felix who is busy with his food, Felix is enjoying his food slowly, he actually knows that Amanda has been paying attention to him, but Felix really understands Amanda, a woman who is familiar with Leon's grandfather, smart to win over his grandfather with his cooking, only for his grandfather's property. a material woman, cunning, like a snake thought Felix. Even Felix also knows Amanda's physical appearance which looks hypocritical to Felix. Everything that is in Amanda for Felix is nothing but fake to win grandfather's heart.

"So, Felix has passed his postgraduate?" asked Leon's grandfather to Felix

"Yes, Grandpa," answered Felix casually

"Then what are your plans next?"

Building a securities business, Grandpa, ”said Felix

"Good, you are handsome, smart, why not think about getting married?" asked the grandfather

"Isn't it that when it is established, women will come naturally Grandpa?" Felix asked in an arrogant tone and glanced at Amanda in front of him

"Hahahahah, you are indeed a man who is ambitious," said León's grandfather bolted Felix

"Then you Amanda? What is your plan? Will you continue to be a social volunteer?" asked the grandfather to Amanda

"Yes Grandpa, at least until the illiteracy rate in Jakarta has decreased," said Amanda

"You don't agree to business?" asked Mr. Leon

"Maybe I'll build a restaurant business, Amanda wants to make a restaurant and cafe," said Amanda

"Ah, that's good, hurry up and make your business plan, so Grandpa can prepare funds for the construction of the restaurant," said Grandpa Leon.

"Ah, you don't need to be grandpa, Amanda you can find your own capital, Amanda will be more satisfied if all of Amanda's hard work is the result of her hard work," Amanda replied.

“I see, you are indeed an independent, beautiful, strong girl, how about marriage? Do you have a boyfriend? Or do you want to introduce your grandchildren to your grandfather's relatives?" asked Leon's grandfather who made Amanda choke and took a drink

"Not yet, let Amanda start a career first," said Amanda

"Wow, these two grandchildren are all smart and clever, I am very proud of you, I hope you will become the next successful generation," said Grandpa Leon.

"Thank you," said Amanda

"Later when you are married, I hope you two will get closer and closer," said Grandpa Leon

Why Grandpa? asked Felix

"Because you will not know what will happen in the future," said Grandfather Leon laughing enigmatically
