Going home and starting everything from scratch, makes little Aisyah feel foreign and depressed because she is away from her parents, longing for her father and mother who never come to pick up like Aini's mother promised, she said, not to mention that he often had nightmares of getting lost in the forest when Mayang left him the other day to provide trauma for children of Aisyah's age who did not understand anything.
How Aisyah could feel at home there, a village far from the frenetic city, foreign faces that she had never met before, he said, no Mayang no other servant used to serve him in his parents' house.
Only a few days Aisyah began to adapt, the father of Aini's mother died, the atmosphere of grief that Aisyah had never felt so far, she was quite surprised and afraid of the crowds of people who came to worship, he said, do not want Aini's mother to be sadder then from her Aisyah can only be silent not much to say and do not want to argue.
Until one day Aisyah had a febrile seizure, her body was hot and had a seizure.
Treated at the village health center for several days, Aisyah's condition improved after two days of high fever and delirium, lucky to be treated immediately, and then, but what makes Aini's mother surprised since the illness was also Aisyah slowly forget who she was, her head will hurt if she remembers the time before she was in the village with Aini's mother.
When married to Ihsan's father, Aini's mother was brought to move to the city again and Humairah could go to school and college like now, they had no other offspring until only Humairah became a complement to the family, cherished worthy of his own child though in simplicity.

Back at the Humairah who was still leaning on the boat of Papa Imran, they reminisced about the past where they felt the perfect family before Aisyah disappeared that day and was never found even by police assistance.
To this day, Aisyah changed and grew into the most mature woman that Mr. Imran met, life experiences making her even more valuable.
"When Alif admitted that he wanted to marry Aisha as a second wife and as a first wife you gave permission, papa the first person to admire your attitude in accepting their marriage" said Imran's father.
"I was just trying to make peace with reality, Mas Alif loved sister Aisyah for a long time. While I was a new person in his life, everything had happened, I did not regret it," replied Humairah who looked at some passers-by.
They were sitting in a park, just talking heart to heart and telling me everything that had happened while the father and son were apart, there was no awkwardness between them even though the dozen years did not meet.
Then papa Imran turned to his daughter in surprise.
"You don't regret it?"
Humairah shook his head, "Far from that there are many lessons I have learned, patience is true said the people that patience has no limits. I felt it, patience that ended sincerely was the best attitude I ever took."
"While it was hard at the beginning, the more I understood that it was not necessary to be loved to feel love, I loved my husband serving him well when Mas Alif came home and that was enough for me, there is nothing wrong in polygamy, as well as with me even now that Alif is starting to look at me," Humairah smiled back at his papa.
"You're not angry at your brother Mayang? Hearing this fact it feels like papa really wants to be angry at Aini and her children, because they we are separated for dozens of years. Papa has done good to them why are they replying to us? If you hadn't prevented maybe now they'd be in jail right now" said papa Imran, provoked by emotion again, holding him back because of Humairah.
"There is no need to discuss that anymore, as I sincerely believe that happened to us in the past, I hope you do the same. After all Aini's mother loves and takes good care of me until now, even Aisyah sister she has become a papa's daughter too. He's my madam, wife of Alif too."
Breathing out in Humairah continued, "We will not be satisfied with replying, because there is a demon who laughs to see us split apart even though a dozen years of relationship has been created even though it is not a real child. Forgetting is the best way, haven't we met in good shape? I don't like revenge, if sincerity is better why we should defile our hearts with useless anger."
"Having two daughters who have one husband, isn't that unique? Come on papa don't tense up, enjoy your old age happily, pray me and sister Aisyah can get pregnant as soon as possible, would be nice for papa who will have a grandchild of two children at once?" Humairah kisses papa Imran's back hand fondly.
"Please promise me, papa won't prolong this matter! There is no act of revenge or anything like that, starting things well will get good anyway. I am happy papa, Mas Alif who loves me, my college is about to be finished, now this meeting really I feel God is so good to me."
Papa Imran looked at Humairah with teary eyes.
"You're exactly your mama always cared about the feelings of others, too bad she couldn't see our meeting today. Want to make a pilgrimage?"
Humairah developed her smile then nodded with vigor.
"Of course I want to. Even though my mother is gone I am still grateful for today, trust me Aini's mother and Ihsan's father educated me well."
Humairah answered sparkling, he stood up and stretched out his hand which was immediately greeted by papa Imran, they headed for the car hand in hand.
Humairah's words made Imran papa stunned, although in his heart still implied deep disappointment in the figure of his former house servant, but Humairah grew up to be a child who is not selfish and very mature in behaving as it is now is not spared from the role of Aini's mother who nurtured him, he said, that means Aini's mother takes care and educates Humairah well as she takes care of Mayang like her own child.
But really he was embarrassed not to be able to educate Mayang well until the woman who changed her identity to Siti Aisyah grew up to be a selfish and ambitious child.
"We buy flowers?"
Humairah nodded again when their car stopped at a flower shop not far from the cemetery area, Humairah's smile re-emerged when she recalled Alif giving her a bouquet of flowers yesterday.
"Why smile for yourself?" sindir papa Imran who was astonished to see the look of his daughter.
"I remember Alif giving this flower yesterday, he was like a papa who used to give flowers to mama."
"You remember that?"
"Yes, and the flowers I played with Brother Mayang. I remember it," Humairah said chuckling softly.
