Because of the arranged marriage

Don't Blame the Destiny

Adnan seemed restless, he did not concentrate when checking his work when the next morning he had to meet clients before teaching on campus. His mind is now focused on Cantika who is at the house of Aunt Siska, even though there is Anita, still Adnan still felt anxious, fearing something happened to Cantika.

"Sleep Mas, it's late, I'm sure Cantika is fine there." Alisha put a glass of avocado juice on the table that she brought from the kitchen. Then sit down on the sofa next to Adnan.

Adnan breathed a rough breath, then grabbed the avocado juice that Alisha had brought. Whether since when Adnan likes the juice, because now every night before going to bed he must drink avocado juice favorite wife who is now also his favorite. Sip the juice and put the empty glass back on the table.

"Let's go to sleep, you can't stay up either." Adnan grabs Alisha's hand and leads her to bed.

Adnan tried to close his eyes, but still could not. Even the wife had fallen asleep in her arms, she was staring at the shady face of Alisha while sleeping, looking more beautiful and adorable. Until without feeling Adnan was asleep, forgetting his turmoil about Cantika.

Sura knocking the door made Adnan aware of his deep sleep, it seemed like he had just fallen asleep not long ago, but the knock on the door really disturbed him, even Alisha also woke up when she heard the door crammed, like something is worrying.

Adnan immediately opened the door, and saw Bik Ana with a nervous face, even her hair was still messy as if in a hurry had not been able to justify her hairstyle.

"What's the Bik?" adnan asked, once Bik Ana woke him up in the middle of the night like this, ah not midnight anymore but almost morning.

"Anu Den, Bibik got a phone call from Anita...." Not even Bik Ana finished his speech Adnan first interrupted.

"Why Bik? Something happened to Cantika?" ask Adnan to panic.

"Not little Miss Den, but Aden's grandmother," said Bik Ana not yet clear, Bibik said that while shaking, making Adnan frown.

Adnan breathed a sigh of relief, but a second later he was again surprised by the reality conveyed by Bik Ana. Without a word Adnan ran straight to the room, changed clothes and searched for the car keys, just as he stepped closer to the door, he almost forgot his wife who was in the bathroom.

"Where are you going?" alisha asked when she saw Adnan was neat.

"Let's go to Aunt Siska's house now, quickly change your clothes," said Adnan, he was impatient to get to Aunt Siska's place.

Alisha complied without much protest, she saw the look on her husband's panicked face and could guess if something happened there, but she did not know what was really happening because Adnan had not told her.

"Mas, slow down!" alisha exclaimed as her husband drove at above average speed.

"Sorry baby, I forgot," Adnan turned to the wife who looked upset about her behavior, he completely forgot that Alisha was pregnant at the moment.

"What is it actually about Mas? I asked you not to answer,"

Adnan breathed a deep breath, "Said Bik Ana, Grandma was taken to the hospital, I was worried something happened," said Adnan.

"Hopefully my grandmother is fine, we will pray,"

Adnan nodded, he refocused on the streets. Even though midnight there are still other vehicles that mill around, although not as dense as during the day.

Shortly Adnan's car entered a nearby hospital yard from the house of Aunt Siska, 8a parked his car and got out of the car, entered the hospital while holding the hand of his beloved wife.

Just as he stepped inside the hospital, he saw a shocking sight, because Aunt Siska and her daughter were crying in the arms of a man, maybe her husband because he has not had time to meet Aunt Siska's husband.

"What's going on? Where are Grandma and Cantika?" adnan asked, he of course worried about Cantika who was not seen in the place.

"Star, Grandma has left us forever," said Aunt Siska stammered with tears that had not yet subsided.

"Innalilahi wa Inna ilaihi Raji'un,"

After that Adnan went straight into the ER, he wanted to ascertain whether what was said by Aunt Siska was true or not and it turned out to be true, the grandmother had been rigidly stretched over the cage, his body was covered in white cloth. He also ventured to open the face of the grandmother, without feeling her tears dripping, although in the past the grandmother did not think it existed, but she still had a blood bond with the grandmother. It's not that bad not to forgive grandma.

"May grandma calm in nature there, greetings to Mama and Papa ya Nek," said Adnan while kissing grandmother's forehead that feels cold. After that, she covered her grandmother's face and left the room.

Grandma's funeral has just ended, everyone has disbanded, including Alisha's parents and Adnan's. Only Aunt Siska was still reluctant to leave the tomb, losing her parents. Moreover, only he who accompanied when the last grandmother, his sister who was outside the city did not know if the grandmother was dead, because they did not have access to contact his sister.

Adnan had tried to find his uncle, but there were no results until now, making Aunt Siska told him to end the search, useless because grandma was gone.

"Pa, why did Grandma also leave Cantika as rich as Father and Mother? Though Cantika had only met Grandma once," Cantika was still crying, although Alisha and Adnan had persuaded her. His cry even increased when he saw the body of the grandmother buried. The little girl insisted on going to the funeral even though Alisha and Adnan had banned her.

They were currently standing behind Aunt Siska and her husband who were still sitting at the side of the grandmother's grave.

"And there's still Papa with Mama. Grandma had missed Father and Mother, so caught up with them. Now Cantika prayed for Father, Mother, Brother and grandmother yes, so that they there continue to smile," said Adnan, again calming Cantika.

Adnan understood now, it turned out that yesterday was the last request of his grandmother before he died, fortunately the wife persuaded him and allowed Cantika to stay there overnight, otherwise he would definitely regret it forever.

"Where are they Pa? How can you smile? They're underground, "the innocent question is slipping from Cantika's lips.

"The brand is in heaven dear," replied Alisha.

"Let's take Aunt Siska home, Cantika want to play again right with Brother Ririn?" Alisha switched the conversation, she did not want Cantika to ask anywhere.

"Mau Ma, Kasian is also Ririn's sister in her own house,"

After that they completely left the burial area.

"Serious Auntie don't want me to meet with Auntie's two kids?" adnan asked, they are currently at Aunt Siska's house. Adnan had offered the aunt to meet with her two children who were taken by the brand's father abroad.

Already a week ago after the departure of Grandma, Adnan wanted to help the Aunt find her son, but it was a rejection that was obtained.

"Aunty seriously, actually aunty kangen with them but Aunty is afraid that if they do not want to consider this Aunt Mama, let them be happy with her Papa there," replied Aunt Siska.

"Well, if that's what Auntie wants, but if Auntie changes her mind come to my house, I'll meet Auntie with Auntie's two children, they'll be adults," Adnan did know two children Aunt Siska, both girls. The first one is probably as old as Alisha while the first one was very small.

"Thank you, let God bring Auntie to meet her own son, because Auntie is sure they will definitely look for the existence of Aunt someday,"

"Auntie will accept this punishment, for separating you from your parents, now Auntie feels how much pain she has left behind. Aunty apologizes to you yes, Aunt is really sorry, if time can repeat itself, Auntie will not do that, but unfortunately, time can not turn back," without feeling Aunt shed tears.

"Already Tan, everything that happened in the past is Destiny, and we should not blame that destiny, the most important thing is now that Auntie has regretted everything," Adnan is now absolutely sure, he said, if Aunt Siska really regretted her actions in the past. He could see sincerity in the eyes of the Aunt, probably because of the life lessons that Aunty had experienced for ten years after losing her possessions.
