Elegant and beautiful oriental Asian women are very attached to her face. Her name is Sri Lestari, usually called Sri. Since quitting work from the City due to a reduction in employees. Coincidentally, the incident coincided with the annulment of the marriage with her fiance.
That's what makes the girl act indifferent and cold towards men who try to approach her.
Having lost her job, the girl finally decided to return to her hometown. Since then, the girl lives with her father and mother.
Mr. Poniman is her father's name and Mrs. Warsinah is her mother's name. Sri is the youngest of three siblings. Her sisters are all girls. They have been married for a long time and chose to migrate and live in the city with their husbands. The family's economy is classified as very poor. Her father was a farm laborer whose income was uncertain.
That's what forced her mother to rack her brain to open a small food stall business. The shop is not far from their house. The girl who helps maintain the shop. To meet their daily needs, this family relies more on the results from selling in the stalls. Because her father's income as a farm laborer is minimal and far from sufficient.
Every morning, the girl usually helps her mother to the market to buy ingredients to cook the food menu that is usually sold in the stalls. The girl also had to accompany her mother to look after the shop until the afternoon. Because at that time the food was usually sold out.

The hands of the clock show 12 in the morning. The girl's eyes couldn't close. Don't know what she had in mind. Suddenly, her fingers moved to open an online dating application that had been installed on her cellphone for a long time. When the phone screen is shifted suddenly there is a new message. The girl looked surprised. The account shows a profile photo of a man. The man's face didn't look Asian.
It looks like the photo is posing while riding a luxury sports car. His appearance is very neat. His dashing, charismatic looks make the eyes of those who look fascinated. The man is wearing sunglasses. His face is very handsome like a prince. The girl's heart was beating fast. Amazed and also attracted to the man.
Then the girl read the message. And when reading the message, the girl felt confused and unfamiliar with the sentence in the language.
The man said, "Merhaba!" In Turkiye
(How are you)
The idea came to see a google translate. She found the meaning is what's up.
The girl then replied to the message in English, "Alhamdulillah I am fine."
(Thanks god I'm good)
However, suddenly a video call rang on her cell phone. While looking nervous and a little shy, she picked up the video call, "H-Ha..Hello!" ( Dag Dig Dug derr..) She replied, with a shy face and sweating cold from nervousness and trembling.
If see the face of a man in a tie, neatly dressed in a black suit and white shirt underneath. It is clear that his social status is not just a random man. You could say the man was a young billionaire.
It was true, the man was visiting employees who were working at his carpet factory. The man owned several companies, the most famous of which was a carpet company. Instantly, the girl was fascinated by the handsomeness of the man in front of her. It was the first time she had seen such a handsome man.
The girl seemed to be hypnotized by his blue-grey eyes with a thin and neat beard, which added to his charismatic face. Sharp nose, reddish white skin typical of Turkiye Caucasian male faces. The man was the eldest son of three children. Both sisters are girls. The first sister is married.
While the second sister is still studying at a well-known university in Istanbul, Turkiye. His father long ago died ten years ago, due to a plane crash. So, automatically all company are handed over to him.
The blue eyed man spontaneously said, "Hello My name is Bahadır Emrah. You can call me Bahadır. I am from Istanbul, Turkiye. I work in my family's carpet company. And You?"
The innocent girl replied, "Hello! My name is Sri Lestari. You can call me Sri. I am from Yogyakarta, Indonesia. I work help my mother sell foods. And what are you doing?"
"I want to meet new people and looking for friends, And what are you doing?" Says Bahadır.
Then the girl replied, "Same with you, meet new people and looking for friends."
It is undeniable that even though the girl is already 25 years old, her face still looks young. Her face is typical of Asian girls. Slanted eyes, white skin, slim stature. That makes the main attraction for the man.
In between their conversation, an old woman's voice called and approached the blue-eyed man. She is his mother who has been standing for a long time and eavesdropping on their conversation. His mother said, "Ne yapıyorsun canım?"
(What are you doing my dear?)
"Anne, Arkadaşımla konuşuyorum." Bahadir replied.
(Mom! I'm talking to my friend)
Then the man gave his cell phone to his mother. He showed the girl to his mother. Then his mother said, "Masha Allah, Sen çok güzelsin."
(Masha Allah, you are very beautiful)
The man's mother praised the girl's beauty. At that time, the girl just smiled with a confused and curious face because she did not understand the old woman's words at all.
The man explained his mother's words to the girl, "My mother talk about you. She talk you are so beautiful!"
"Talk to your mother thank you so much. But, your mother is more beautiful." The girl answered.
Suddenly the man said, "Can you give me your phone number maybe whatsApp for me?"
"I am sorry, I can't give my number to new people." The girl answered.
"Okay, no problem." The blue eyed man said.
It's been about an hour the two of them were engrossed in conversation via video call. By that time, the clock was already showing 1 o'clock in the morning. At the same time, in Turkiye it is still 9 pm because the time difference between Indonesia and Turkiye ranges from 4 to 5 hours.
The girl was also getting sleepy.
The girl said, "Sorry, I am sleepy, maybe we can talk later."
"Okay. See you later!" The man answered.
Unexpectedly, from that short chat, it gave rise to the seeds of love and interest between the two of them. It seems that in the past two years the blue-eyed man has never dated any woman. He has broken up many times because the woman was cheated to him. They only use it in material terms. Because his family is a billionaire family.
That night, was the beginning of the girl's introduction to a handsome foreign man she met in cyberspace. Previously, the innocent girl had a serious relationship with a man, even to the point of getting engaged. However, their relationship ran aground halfway. Because his fiancé had an affair with her close friend.
Since then, the girl seems heartbroken and indifferent when asked about marriage. She was traumatized in relationships with men.

The sun began to shine. That morning Sri rushed to help her mother to clean and prepare a menu of merchandise that was ready to be sold at their stall.
"Son, tomorrow there will be a catering order for the celebration of 200 rice boxes." Her mother said as she poured the tea into the cup.
"Indeed, who is the mother who ordered that much boxed rice?" He asked his mother.
"The village head, Sri! He said that his son wants to marry a wealthy businessman from Jakarta. And they will be getting married this month. Then when are you getting married, Sri?" Said his mother.
"Never mind Mom, later when it's time to meet a mate, I'll definitely get married." Everyone has their soul mate. So, don't think too much and worry about this. Maybe the time isn't now. And I will marry if I have found the right man and suits me, Mom!" Sri said to her mother.
Moments later, her cell phone rang. There's an incoming message. Bahadır, the man she had just met in cyberspace had sent her a message.
Bahadır said, "Good morning, how are you?"
Sri also replied, "I'm fine, and you?"
"Alhamdulillah, I am good." Bahadir said.
