GOOD NEWS

"Are You Sri? Sorry, you're Sri Lestari?" The beautiful woman said to her spontaneously.

"Sorry, who are you?" Sri replied feeling surprised by the existence of this beautiful woman.

However, Sri feels like she has met this beautiful woman, but she forgets to remember where she met her. Because it's been a very long time.

"Sri, have you forgotten about me? I'm Zara Sri! I'm Mrs. Ema's daughter, your mother's friend. I was your childhood friend. Do You remember me Sri?" Said the beautiful woman.

"Owh.. Yes, I just remembered now. You are Zara, yes you are Zara, Mrs. Ema's daughter who works as a nurse. I almost didn't recognize you, Zara. You know, you are now as big and beautiful as this. I forgot about that earlier. Because when you were playing with Sri, you were very young, you are remember? Owh yeah, how are your mom and dad doing, Zara? Where do you live now?" Asked Mrs. Warsinah--to Zara.

"Alhamdulillah, Mom and Dad are in good news, Auntie. We as a family are now living in Jakarta, Auntie." replied Zara.

"It's been a very long time, we haven't seen Zara l. About 20 years ago, since Zara was about 5 years old. And I still remember it very well. At that time, Mrs. Ema's family moved because her husband had to move out of town for work. Understandably he is a civil servant," said Mrs. Warsinah --

Finally, after a while they let Zara into the living room. It was then that Sri remembered her childhood friend Zara.

"Zara here! "You must be very tired after a long journey. Come here and rest in my room! We can chat while telling stories from the past." Sri said inviting Zara to rest in her room.

"What are you busy with now, Sri? Where do you work? Are you married yet?" Asked Zara slurring to her best friend. Zara is a girl who is talkative and humble.

"I used to work for a while Zar, only because there was a reduction in employees, I finally went home. Now I'm just busy helping my mother take care of the shop. I was also about to get married but my relationship with my boyfriend ran aground in the middle of the road. What if you were alone?" Sri said.

"I work as a secretary at a foreign company Sri. And I have a boyfriend, but I still want to have a career while getting to know each other better. Oh yes Sri, is there really no man who is close to you Sri? Said Zara to Sri.

If it's not there, then I'll match it with my friend. Many of my friends are single. Zara says promoting her friend. Zara said adding her words.

"Actually, Zar already exists, but the person is very far away. However, my father and mother don't seem to agree. Because they want to set me up with the nephew of the village head." said Sri.

"How far is it? And which person is your candidate Sri," asked Zara curiously.

"Hmm.. It's far away Zar!" He is from Turkiye. I got to know him from an online dating app.

What do you think of Zar? Sri asked Zara.

"Watch out! Be careful, Sri! Today's guys lie a lot. Moreover, you have never met the person in person. The truth is that many lie, especially those who are far away, in cyberspace again. I'm scary. Sorry, Sri, I just want you Just be more careful, I'm worried for you." Zara says to her childhood friend.

"Yeah, Zar, at first I also had doubts and didn't believe him. Well, we'll see what happens later. The plan is that he will come to Indonesia in a month, he said. He told me the other day. This morning there was a package of a cat, it was he who sent it from Turkiye. Because I once said I like cats." Sri explained to Zara.

"What is this man's job, Sri?" asked Zara curiously.

"He works in a carpet company owned by his own family. Yes, you could say he is a billionaire. But that's not what made me fall in love with him. He was a kind and caring person. I felt special." Sri said praising Bahadır.

"Wow, is that really Sri? Are you serious?" Said Zara surprised by Sri's words.

"Seriously Zar, I saw with my own eyes when he video call that time, he was visiting employees who were working in the factory. And you know what? He showed me to his mother at that time." Sri said to Zara.

"Wow.. well.., if that's true, it means that your candidate is a rich man, Sri." Said Zara while teasing Sri.

While chatting with Zara, suddenly Bahadır made a video call.

"Hello, Akım nasılsın?" Sri said to her lover. (Hello, my love how are you?).

"Iyiyim teşekkür ederim aşkım! O Kim?" Ask Bahadır to Sri

(I'm good, thanks my love, who is she?)

"Introduction, this is my friend Zara, She is my childhood friend Aşkım." Sri replied introducing Zara to her lover.

For a moment Zara was dazed her eyes bulged and she was stunned as if hypnotized by Bahadır's blue-gray eyes like marbles.

Zara's eyelids seemed to be spinning as if hypnotized by Bahadır's gaze. Imagine, his handsome and charismatic face makes women smitten.

"Y-Y-Yes, I'm Zara's. Nice to meet you." Said zara who was amazed at the good looks of the blue eyed man.

"Yeah, you're welcome Zara." Bahadır said to Zara.

After that, Zara went to the living room to chat with Mrs. Warsinah-- and Mr. Poniman who had just arrived from work. Zara deliberately leaves and gives Sri and Bahadır a chance to chat alone.

"Aşkım, this week I will come to Indonesia. My business here is done. I will come to see you and your family!" Bahadır said

It turned out that Bahadır had arrived in Indonesia earlier than expected, which was delayed at that time.

"Yes Askim, I am very happy to hear this news." Sri replied with a happy face.

"I leave here at around 9 pm. And maybe arrive in Indonesia at 9 am. The journey is approximately 12 hours." Bahadir said.

"Okay, I'll pick you up at the airport in Jakarta, Aşkım. I'll take Zara with me later. It happens that Zara lives in Jakarta in an area close to the airport." Sri said to Bahadır.

"Alright, Aşkım. Thank you." Says Bahadır.

"Wait a minute Aşkım, I'll talk to Zara first." Sri said to Bahadır, while leaving.

While Zara was chatting with her parents, Sri suddenly came.

"Shhh..Shh..Zar..Zara.. here, I want to talk to you again." Sri whispered to Zara.

"What's the matter Sri?" Zara said.

Zara was disturbed because she was busy talking with Mr. Poniman and Mrs. Warsinah. Sri pulled Zara's hand to her room.

"Zara, can I ask you a something? Help me, Zar, just this once." Sri says pleading to Zara.

"What can I do for you Sri? If I could, I would certainly help. Just tell me." Zara replied to her childhood friend.

"Look, next week Bahadır plans to come to Indonesia. However, the problem is that no one will pick him up. I'm afraid he will stray later. Because this is the first time he has come to Indonesia." said Sri.

"Then what can I do for you Sri. Don't worry, I will definitely help if I can." Zara said to Sri.

"I'm planning to pick him up at the airport directly, it seems. So, I ask you to tell my father and mother, if you want to take me to look for work in Jakarta. Just tell me there is a job vacancy at your workplace. Because my mother and father would not have given permission if they knew I wanted to pick up Bahadır. Please, Zar." Sri said with a pitiful face.

"Hmm.. okay. Ready, Mrs. Bahadır! But you promise me, later when you are married you take me for a trip to Turkey, right?" Zara said while smiling teasing her childhood friend.

"Okay! Don't worry! I'll take you trip to Turkiye!" Sri said seducing Zara with a sweet smile.

Not long after that, Mrs. Warsinah came and went to their room to ask Zara and Sri to have dinner.
