** * back to present***

" hahahah.. unbelievable. You don't make up a story right ?" cacha was the first one made a comment.

"certainly, he inherited that quality from me" dad declared proudly.

"shameless, His was better than you"Mum pinched dads arm playfully.

" Mum, why do you choose dad ? what did he do ?" Cacha was wondered.

"black magic" Mum joked.

"my inner beauty of course" Dad said confidently.

Alice and Cacha were snorted loudly

"it might be true, Mum is very good looking and dad is just ok-ish" Alice and Cacha were agreed with dad in their own tought.

"Alice, are you going to have dinner with us ?" When Mrs Feng mentioned dinner, Alice remembered her second purpose of her visit.

"no mum, Thank you"

Cacha hearing was sharp, " Sister, Since when do you call (she pointed at Mrs Feng) mum?"

"what's wrong call me 'mum', they are engage"

"So is it official now ? then I just called her 1st elder sister then.."

Alice smiled " Mum, dad. Are you free this saturday ? lets gather in our place for lunch or dinner if you don't mind"

"I am free for dinner" Mum said.

"sure, as long as there is chicken feet" Dad teased.

Cacha pout her mouth "Am I not invited ?"

Alice gigled " of course you are. How come our cutie pie not invited.."

"oh no.., big elder sister, you also has infected, you start make a fun of me"Cacha pretended to be upset.

Alice peeked her the clock " it's near afternoon peak hours. I need to leave soon before the traffic getting worst.

"I cooked beef rendang yesterday, take some with you, just wait" Mum got up and went. Alice followed her.

Once the were in the kitchen. Alice hugged Mrs Feng. "Thank you mum, You are the greatest women. thanks for accepting me, thanks for neber scheming me, thanks for giving me chance"

"I.., I did mind about your past. I gave you chance because he asked me. I just didn't want to disappoint him as It was his first time begging me. Since he was a kid and up until now, it was the only time he argued with me. You didn't disappoint me, I am proud of you, you are great"

Alice was lying without wings when Mrs Feng prised her. It's her time to be prised.

" Remember I doubt you that day. I told both of you were not a match.."

That day Mrs Feng said was "look at your life style, your cloths worth of 1 month my son salary. You said you could change but one day you will tire and resent your decision"

Mrs Feng paused for few second "but you proved your words. You are sacrificing your luxurious, You choose my boy rather than that rich man. you work hard on your business. You are a great woman". Alice starled that Mrs Feng knew about rich man than her mum arranged for her. She knew Mrs Feng had closed relationship with her kids but she never imagined that Nick would told he her everything.

"I didn't sacrifice anything Mum. Sacrifice is only when people letting go good thing.

But me, I let go my bad one. I just trade them, you know when people do trading they are aftee profit. I am the same my profit is my happiness, Nick and his family.

You are my happiness. So I didn't sacrifice, I traded them for my happiness"

Alice was weeping. Today she was crying for many time but It was hapiness cry not sorrow.

"Don't cry"Mrs Feng swiped Alice tears.

" why are you such a cry baby ? Don't cry more. They might think I am bullying you".

Mrs Feng words made her chuckle.

" Here is the rendang" Mrs Feng handed the rendang packed on medium food container

" Thank you Mum". Alice kissed Mrs Feng cheek and took the rendang. Then both of the great women when back to living room.

"I need to go now, otherwise I will stuck on the traffic" Alice embraced Mrs. Feng once more.

"ok. go now.. Bus coming soon . Don't miss it." Dad waved his hand

"Bye big elder sister" Cacha hugged Alice.

"bye"
