ALL ABOUT REVENGE

THE RANI HOUSE

After two hours of travel, Wira and Novi arrive at Rani's house. Wira parked her car next to Rani's house. Tama who was playing on the terrace of the house welcomed the arrival of Wira don Novi. He was screaming because he was too happy to see Wira's car.

Rani comes out of her room and sees Wira who has been holding Tama.

" Well, when did it come? I don't hear the car." Tanya Rani was astonished.

" Just arrived Ran. Uh, this is Tama ya Ran. It's big now." Said Wira while holding Tama's cute cheeks.

" Yes, I'm a big boy now. Any food, he's craving. Lucky he wasn't picky."

" Hehe, means he can be concerned about Ran. Yes Tam," Wira said then again holding Tama's cute cheeks.

" Eh, mas. How did you bring a woman here to be quiet ? Why not introduce it, then?"

" Oh, yeah. Sorry about Nov. I miss my nephew. Even silence you."

Novi just smiled and looked down. She's so embarrassed. During his time with Wira, from childhood until now, never once, he met his brother.

" Ran, this is my boyfriend. Name's Novi. He's the manager at my new restaurant."

Rani stretched out her hand, and so did Novi.

" I'm Rani, Wira's sister."

" I Novi buk, I have been with Mr. Wira as his loyal servant."

" Novie? Mas, it seems you used to raise a child named Novi right? Don't you marry your adopted son?" Ask Rani while remembering the name of the child who was told by Wira.

" Eh, if that.. It is true Ran. The novel I adopted as a child, is now my lover."

" You're serious, ma'am? Don't mess around. It's a pity that he's your toy."

" Ran, I'm seriously in a relationship with him. I miss the late Dinda. If I continue to be alone, loneliness haunts me. My thoughts were overshadowed by the desire to catch Dinda away. But, I'm afraid that if I die, I can't meet him because I took the wrong path."

" Oh yeah, I don't mind that. If that's your decision, I, as your sister, can only support and pray. Hopefully what you do, given ease and smoothness mas."

" Thank you for understanding me, Ran. I thought you didn't approve of my wishes."

" As long as it doesn't go against the rules, I don't ban you."

" Eh, let's go in first, talk at the door. It's almost maghrib."

Rani walks into her house accompanied by Wira and Novi.

" Please sit down, what do you want to drink in Novi?" Ask Rani on Novi.

" Eh, don't bother mbak. I'm not good."

" Don't worry, just assume you're in your own home. Soon you will be my sister-in-law. Consider it your own home."

" Nov, we're not here for a minute. We'll discuss something important. An hour will not be enough." Speech Hero.

" Yes already then. I'm just plain water mbak." Novi said because he did not know what to drink. He felt like he was drinking.

" Are you sure you're white?"

" Well that's it" replied Novi.

" What did you drink?"

" If it were me, black coffee bitter not only need to use sugar. Sugar is expensive. Haha.." Speak to the hero while laughing.

" While expensive, we can still buy gold. You are insulting us."

" Yes, Mr. Wira is not good at saying that." Novi defending Rani.

" I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously."

" Talk to you, if you think seriously can be crazy mas." Rani said with a laugh, then walked into the kitchen to make a drink.

After a few minutes, Rani returned to the living room, bringing drinks for Novi and Wira.

" Let's drink, drink it. You must be thirsty, after a long journey."

" Thank you mbak." Novi.

" Well, it's still hot Ran. I can't drink it right away." The hero spoke

" This is Ran, you're tired of going back and forth."

" Nothing, not far away anyway."

" No need to Ran, this is enough."

" Well, if it's less, you take it yourself. As always, just buffet."

" Hehe.. Yes done Ran. Oh yeah, where's your husband Ran? Why hasn't it been looking at his nose."

" It seems like this morning said, coming home late because you want to learn extraculikuler mas.

" Is so. Actually, I also need to be your husband, but since he's not home, I'd better just talk to you."

" Look, Ran, I'm here to discuss our marriage. Can you help me?"

" Whoa, I guess. Can't stand it yet, huh mas? I don't know when you were in a relationship. All of a sudden, just came here and said you wanted to get married."

" Hehe, this is Ran's sudden occurrence. Our relationship was intertwined when our feelings were turbulent. At first I gave up, but Novi gave me a positive signal."

Novi just sat down and fell silent as Wira spoke to Rani. He didn't know what to start talking to his future brother-in-law. Meanwhile, Wira is busy talking about her marriage with him.

" Ran, how's the solution? We want to get married but Novi has no parents. Is it permissible to use the services of a person to be his or her marriage guardian?"

" Don't you remember where you found Novi? Where he should live, on his left right side is his family. Using the services of the guardian, later if there is no other way, to look for it."

" Our plan was to find traces of Novi Ran, but I've decided to come here with him. Maybe tomorrow we'll look for him."

" Okay, let's talk after Maghrib. Waiting for my husband to come home. Maybe he can give advice too. Who knows, my husband's advice would be the best. You're still here a long time, aren't you?"

" You're right Ran too, I better wait for your husband to come home first. Yes, I'm still here a long time. If necessary, we will stay. Hehe.."

" Mister Wira, I don't want to stay. I don't usually sleep in other people's homes. If Mr. Wira wants to stay overnight, I'll go home on foot."

Hearing Novi's words, Rani was shocked. Looks like Novi's the stubborn type of woman. He is brave but not arrogant.

" Novie, it's okay if you stay here too. There are still plenty of empty rooms. It just so happens that my twins are in college out of town. That's why they chose to cost there instead of going back and forth."

" Yes Nov, if we go home, we will travel even further. Rather than like that, mending we stay here. Tomorrow morning we leave for where you came from."

" Novi, right said masku. Better stay here. Anyway, if you go home, it'll be late. Your rest time will be reduced. Try to stay here, you can still relax before leaving."

" Well, then, I'll go with you."

" Nah, that's better. Yes, I want to pray first. Want to meet me Nov?"

" Eh, I.." Novi was confused to answer what.

" He's against Ran." The hero helps answer Rani's questions.

" Oh, so so. Yes, I did, Nov first. Mas Wira, soon you will be a priest for your wife. What about your worship?"

" Eh, I, I.. I just learned Ran's prayer. It's a little hard, so if no one's believing, I don't pray." The confused spirit answered Rani's question. He would not want to lie to his sister so as not to be lectured with spicy words. In fact, Wira never did worship.

" So you've been studying since? We don't know how old we are until how many years. What do you want to bring with you when you die?"

" A, Rani. I know it. Well, then when I see Tanu, I'll also learn to worship with him."

" Yes, I'm sorry, Nov, I'm sometimes like this as your husband-to-be. Yes, so that he won't regret."

Novi's body shook. He realized, Wira never taught him to pray. He was never touched to pray.

" It's okay mbak. If you have never done it, it will be difficult. Please Mr. Hero, guided by mbak."

" Let my husband lead him Nov, if I teach him, I'm dizzy myself. Yes yes, I stayed. Before the time's up."

Novi smiled shyly in response to Rani's words, he began to realize, life is meaningless without faith in the heart.

" Well, I've never been happy, let alone happy. I am far from my God." I have never carried out my duties as a man created ruler of the universe. Lord, forgive me all the sins I have committed."

Ducking down, Novi shed tears. He silently wiped his tears over and over again. And hid her tears from Wira who was busy accompanying Tama to play Puzzle on the floor.

" How many tears I shed, it turns out that this is the cause. I'm sorry my God."
