Be late

A message

All the guests were seated at the prepared place. The engagement between Michi and Kemal will be held soon.

The invited guests, including Kemal, were addressed to someone who came in a dress that matched Michi's favorite color of decoration. All eyes looked with admiration. Such a graceful woman.

Kemal received praise for being very smart to choose a prospective life partner. Of course Kemal increasingly feel big head with that praise.

"Great Lo Kemal, can be a soul mate like Michi. If you think it's like this mah cave just want to." Say one of Kemal's friends who participated in watching his engagement.

"Who was... Kemal Wijaya, what the hell can not be dapetin cave," he replied arrogantly.

Shortly after, Michi arrived in front of the invited guests accompanied by the mother.

Michi has never met Kemal. Even though they are one campus, they have never met.

Michi's gaze only bowed to look at his own feet, only occasionally Michi saw the Papa who clearly saw the look of his happy face.

Shortly after that an MC stood up to start an engagement event. Before the event starts, the MC reads first the arrangement of the event to be held. After all the arrangements were read out, the MC gave a little welcome to the groom's family to represent the bride.

With a little welcome, the MCs re-read the next events to the men's event to convey the intent of their arrival.

Hearing the question that was once spoken by someone very dear Michi, now again spoken by people whom he did not care at all.

Slowly the tears that had been held back since his arrival entered the engagement area, were now completely spilled. Maybe for them the tears were tears of happiness, but for Michi it was tears of pain.

The mother who saw him immediately gave a tissue to help wipe away her tears that were not ceaselessly wet her cheeks.

Michi, who was speechless, was only able to nod her head as a sign that she was willing to accept the proposal and engagement.

And after Mr. Andika gave an answer to the question posed by the Wijaya family, that Michi accepted his proposal. Symbolically, the Vijaya family gave a red box in which there were two rings.

The MCs called the bride and groom to alternate between each other and put a ring that would circle on their ring fingers as a sign that they were in a serious relationship.

Both families give thanks to each other because everything is going well. And they also capture the moment by taking pictures together.

After several events, Michi is now officially engaged to Kemal. All the guests have already said goodbye. There now lives the family of Wijaya and Pak Andika who are busy chatting. They discussed their son's wedding.

Michi just fell silent, still in disbelief if all this really happened. I can't believe she has to fall in the arms of another man.

Unable to hold back any longer, Michi ran away to her room. Because he could no longer hold back his tears from flowing, remembering the promise that had been said to Adrian.

"What's wrong with Michi Pak" asked Kemal to Mr. Andika.

"It's okay, Naughty Kemal, maybe so happy because it's been proposed as Naughty Kemal." Reply Mr. Andika tried to calm Kemal.

Mr. Hesti and Mr. Wijaya just fell silent to look at each other. Although they actually have doubts about Michi and her family.

The day was getting late, the Wijaya family also said goodbye to go home first.

"Sir, ma'am, it looks like the day is starting late in the afternoon, all the events are over. My family please say goodbye, sir. Next time we talk again." Said Mr. Wijaya while shaking hands.

They also rushed to walk to a car parked in the house. They were escorted by Mr. Andika and Bu Ayu to their car.

Wijaya's family got into the car and they slowly walked away from Mr. Andika's house.

See the Wijaya family car that is no longer visible. Mr. Andika rushed into the house and went straight to Michi's room.

Bu Ayu who saw it immediately followed him. Fortunately, before Mr. Andika entered Michi's room, Bu Ayu managed to stop him.

"Pa! What do you want, go to Michi's room. Does Papa want to get angry because of Michi's attitude earlier. Papa should give Michi time to be alone. Don't let our child become psychologically weak because of Papa's ego." Said Ms. Ayu.

"But Ma, Michi has put Papa to shame. If they get suspicious, and cancel our employment contract just because we know we forced Michi to get engaged. Michi same Mama will know for herself the consequences." Threatened Mr. Andika and rushed away to leave his wife.

...****************...

In the afternoon, Adrian who had arrived home since this afternoon. I wanted to see Michi at her house.

"Mom, Adrian ask permission to go for a minute?" he said while kissing the back of his mother's hand.

"Where are you going at this hour? Want to go to Siska's house?" Tempta Bu Murni who saw his son was well dressed.

"Mom can, Adrian wants to go to Michi Bu's house. Adrian wants to return the money that was once given to you."

"Where did you get the money? It's not like you've only been working two days. Yes, the first salary can already be to return money to the Andika family." Pure Bu Say.

"Yesterday Adrian told a lot to Mr. Sholeh about the problems that exist. Mr. Sholeh loaned this money to be returned to Mr. Andika. So that Mr. Andika is not arbitrarily with our family." Adrian explained to his mother.

No more words came out of Pure Ma'am. I would love to be honest with Adrian. But Pure Ma was afraid that her son would hate her so much. Pure Ma'am just fell silent.

"Mom, why's mom?" adrian asked as he approached his mother.

"Adrian, actually... There's something important I wanted to tell Adrian. But, I hope Adrian doesn't hate mom and dad."

"It matters what Mom, what the same father mother hid from Adrian so far. Adrian promise not to hate father same mother. But, please tell me the truth." Pinta Adrian holding her mother's hand tightly.

Before long, Mum Murni began to tell everything to Adrian. Despite her heavy heart, Pure Ma went to her room to pick up a black box.

He gave the box to Adrian. Seemed so sad, the look on Pure Ma'am's face as she thrust out the black box.

"Is this Mom?" adrian asked when he received the box from his mother.

"You open that box, son, you'll understand once you open it." Mama Murni replied with tears.

Seeing his mother who suddenly covered in tears also made Adrian confused. "Why is it that mothers are increasingly unable to hold back their tears." Adrian's mind opened the box he received from his mother.

When the box was opened, Adrian saw a necklace, which hung a letter with the initials 'A' and a letter below which contained a message.

"Mom I leave my son, later if it's grown up give this to him. I'll go back to see him."
