16. Thank You, Joon

Joon answered, "Two million, Ma'am."

Mrs. Tatik nodded before re-questioning Joon.

"When was Joon last? that you have four months to pay the cost, for instance. However, with normal amenities, "Mrs. Tatik said.

"Four months. Seriously, Mom? "Joon questioned with widened eyes.

Mrs. Tatik answered, "Yes, seriously, son Joon."

"Is that close by, ma'am? What was the location's name earlier?" Joon questioned as he recalled what his mother Zahra had said about the name.

"Boarding house," said Mrs. Tatik.

Zahra yelled, "Mom," from the direction in which they were talking.

Joon immediately made his way to Zahra's room because he was concerned that something would go wrong. The same is true for Mrs. Tatik.

GLEK!

Directly entering the room, Mrs. Tatik opened the door.

Mrs. Tatik, who was seated on the bed next to her daughter, questioned, "Why Zahra?"

Where is Mom, Joon? Still here, right?" Zahra questioned.

Mrs. Tatik pointed at Joon who was standing in the middle of the bedroom door and said, "That!"

"How are you? Joon came up and asked, "What's wrong, Zahra?"

"Goodness gracious. Joon, I now have information about whether the things will arrive there, Zahra remarked.

"Yes. Joon asked, "So I'll just go there now?"

Zahra pleaded with her mother, "Mom, please get me the key, sure."

After placing it in a drawer, Mrs. Tatik gave Joon the item.

"Okay. I'm already there, then," Joon remarked.

Before he left Zahra and her mother, Joon asked, "Zahra, please open your phone later if, for instance, I have something to ask, okay?"

"Sure Joon. I sincerely appreciate that in advance," Zahra answered with her trademark grin.

Mrs. Tatik questioned, "Need to be accompanied by mom, isn't it Joon?"

"You're not required to, ma'am. Mrs. Tatik should simply remain at home, "Joon answered. After that, the man went to the store where Zahra was working.

Zahra then walked downstairs and was getting ready to use the restroom.

"It is midday, Zahra. Mom consumes meals before taking medication," Mrs. Tatik stated.

The afternoon was extending further and farther. Zahra, who was already doing okay, then left without speaking to her mother while wearing a heavy jacket.

"Zahra! When her daughter was about 5 meters from the porch of the house, Mrs. Tatik yelled, "Where are you going? To the shop bend, Ma'am," Zahra answered as she turned around.

"Wait," Mrs. Tatik said. After that, he left the house and locked the door.

Zahra yelled, "Zahra can be alone Ma'am!"

"Let's go! Holding her daughter's arm, Mrs. Tatik urged her mother to come along. Zahra simply grinned while shaking her head.

As she walked, Mrs. Tatik remarked, "Joon phone requires help or how?"

"No, Mom. Zahra considers Joon. He hasn't shared any news since then and has remained by himself. Zahra retorted, "I didn't pick up the phone either.

"Is that all then? Joon should be safe, I hope," Zahra remarked.

They reached the shop. Right away, Zahra's mother entered the room.

Zahra addressed the man, "Joon," noting that he was busy.

When the two of them arrived, Joon appeared startled.

"You realize? Exactly why did you come here? Zahra? Madame Tatik? Joon asked with a frown. Zahra, meanwhile, made a genuine smile.

"Let it not assist here. I apologize; you have grown weary of assisting me here ever since. Once more, no one took up the call, according to Zahra.

"Mom help too here. What can you do to help?" asked Mrs. Tatik.

Then Zahra demonstrated the simple tasks her mother was accustomed to. Use dampening materials such as bubble plastic when packaging small handmade objects to prevent future breakage.

Joon questioned with a troubled expression, "You're healed, Zahra?"

"It was Joon. You already know, right? Yes, let's begin to work right now so that it may be finished quickly," Zahra suggested.

After that, they continued to work side by side until everything was completed before 5 o'clock.

God is good. Finally completed as well. Zahra crossed her arms as she murmured, "I'll simply have to send it.

It's finished. Mrs. Tatik suggested that they simply go home and rest.

In that case, I only bid you farewell, Zahra, and Mrs. Tatik, Joon remarked.

"Yes, you can help me Joon. It's been a whole day. For a very long time, I won't feel good about Joon if it continues to be this way. You must eat and do other things too here. Please acknowledge my yes. I do, after all, run a business. I stand to gain from it all, " as she handed Joon the money, Zahra added.

Mrs. Tatik came over as well. Mrs. Tatik gave patted Joon on the shoulder and added, "Yes, Zahra Joon acknowledged. Accepted already. You can also make paying for college expenses simpler."

Zahra, feeling guilty for not telling her mother, inquired, "You know that Joon wants to attend college here?"

Mrs. Tatik simply laughed while nodding in the background.

"Next time, it's preferable to simply board Joon when your stay at the inn expires. Make it more cost-effective "Mrs. Tatik added.

When Zahra heard it, she simply scowled while turning to gaze at both Joon and his mother.

"Boarding house? What have you two been talking about so far? Oh, what time was it? Joon did not return home to await the arrival of the goods," explained Zahra.

Joon ultimately accepts the gift money from Zahra after being forced to do so by the latter and her mother.

"I agree with this," Joon said.

"Well, in that case. Joon won't hesitate if Zahra requests his assistance once more as a result "Mrs. Tatik confirmed Joon's statement.

"Then I bid you farewell, yes," Second time Joon bid them farewell. Joon instantly walked on the motorcycle he claimed to have leased as Zahra and her mother waved their arms.

Zahra turned to her mother and stated, "It seems like mom has spoken to Joon a lot."

"Yes, baby, not much yet. Mom just recently weighed in. Living in a boarding home while you are in Jogja will save you money. The cost is significantly higher if it's in one of these inns. especially if you intend to stay here for an extended period of time. That's correct, right?" asked Mrs. Tatik.

"Yes, ma'am, but Zahra is unsure if Joon will truly feel at home here for a protracted period of time," she added.

"Let's already make it darker. We're here," invited Mrs. Tatik.

The sound of approaching vehicles could be heard as I was ready to enter. Naturally, they both went back and undid their entry into the house.

Zahra, who hadn't noticed the man who had just halted her motorcycle, said, "Who is ma'am?"

"I'm not sure. In addition, it's enjoyable," Mrs. Tatik stated.

Only after the man opened the helmet and approached did Zahra and her mother comprehend.

"Mother? Zahra? "welcomed the man.

"Mas Niam?" Zahra asked.

The back of Mrs. Tatik's hand was then kissed by Zahra's older brother Niam. They went straight inside the house.

Mrs. Tatik questioned Niam, "Where have you been?"

"From my mother's home. Can you make sure Niam stays here tonight, ma'am?" Niam asked.

Mrs. Tatik patted her son on the shoulder and said, "Yes, of course, you can.

Zahra proceeded to the room while appearing clumsy and stated, "Mom, Zahra to the room, yes."

"Mom, why Zahra? Niam questioned, "How come it appears so limp?

"You have no idea. I previously looked him over. Joon is fortunately assisting," added Mrs. Tatik.

"Joon? Who is Mom there? Mas Niam asked, "Junaedi?"

You embody this! Pretentious! It's Joon's pal Zahra. Mrs. Tatik responded, "Koreans. He then started telling Niam about Joon.

"Mom, you concurred? What is Zahra's connection to that Korean? Mas Niam questioned, "Are you sure, ma'am?" with a very doubtful expression.

"All by God's will, Mom is quite certain. God is another thing that excites the mother into agreeing to the relationship between the two," Mrs. Tatik said.

"But what if, for instance, Zahra was simply played with, Ma'am? They are very dissimilar from one another, "explained Niam.

"Just a second. Do you wish to convert to Islam, Joon?" questioned Niam.

"God is our hope, Son. What exactly is needed, then? How far did you travel to arrive here in the wee hours?" said Mrs. Tatik as she changed the subject.

It appears that she has a motherly instinct telling her that Niam is going to say something sinificant.

Mrs. Tatik gave her adult son a long, inquiring stare while remaining motionless. Niam sighed a little bit louder. Sepertinya recently received the right guess from Mrs. Tatik.

"Yes, Mom. Niam did intend to speak, "said Niam.

"Just say "yes" to that. What is the issue? "questioned Mrs. Tatik

BRUGH!

The sound of something falling prevented Niam from continuing his earlier speech. Niam followed Mrs. Tatik as she stood up and made her way to the back.

Zahra, who was in her room, was similarly startled when she heard the noise. Zahra also hurried out of her room.
