The Best Mother

Anya was chatting with her mother on the phone when she realized Tara was looking at her wistfully.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Anya flicked Tara's forehead gently and ended the call.

Tara immediately snapped out of her reverie and changed the subject, "It's okay. What did your mother say?" 

"My mother said the guest who rented her room had returned. She will order someone to clean the house. she was very happy when she found out that you were going to stay overnight. Mother also said that she will take Mrs. Esther over to the house for dinner together. We're having a barbecue!" Anya said with a happy smile.

Tara was silent for a moment and then asked doubtfully, "Nico wants barbecue too. Can I come with him?" 

Anya felt conflicted when she had to answer that. Actually, she didn't want to invite Nico because he was a member of the Atmajaya Family. But in the end, she decided to agree to it. 

"Okay."
