BECAUSE OF YOU, MY DESTINY.

Funeral

Jakarta

Since the wedding, Alvin has become quiet. Alvin who usually talk a lot, Alvin who is usually cheerful, now turned cold not many words come out of his mouth. The handsome-faced maco man would only take out words as necessary and as important as it was.

Alvin, who is now, is always busy with his work. He leaves in the morning, goes home in the evening, sometimes he likes to stay in his office. The family has done any way to make Alvin cheerful again, including finding a woman for him.

"I told you not to play with me, Mah! Right now I want to focus on my work!" reject firmly Alvin when Maya wants to introduce Alvin to one of his friends' children.

"Until when do you stay like this, Vin? Mama does not want you to continue to fall because of marriage! Move on, Vin! There are many women! Forget her! Riana is married." Maya stared at her son with pleas.

Both are at the dining table. Maya intends to betroth Alvin, but his intention was rejected firmly by the child.

"I know he's married, I also know there are many women. But, it's a matter of the heart, Mah. My heart is not ready to accept another woman. You know, too, how does it feel to lose someone you love? I also need time to forget it, just like Mama who needs time to accept Papa's departure."

Maya fell silent, what Alvin said was true as well. When we love someone and that person leaves us, it takes time to let go and forget. Everything is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand, all it takes a process, and the process takes a long time.

Especially to forget, it is difficult. Until whenever someone will be difficult to forget the person who was in his heart even though he was an ex.

"Mama just wants the best for you, Vin." Maya said staring gently at her youngest child.

"Sometimes what is best for man is worst for God. On the contrary, what we think is not the best but for God is the best. We must be sure that God has prepared the best soul mate for me. So Alvin begs Mama not to betroth Alvin!" alvin pleaded with both hands.

Maya breathed her rough, if it was like this she could only give up her son's choice. Maya is not a typical mother who likes to force the will. He will support every decision of his children as long as it is on the right path.

There was a notification coming into the square object that everyone thought was important. Maya sees who's been sending the message because it was sent to the group. Instantly his eyes glared in shock as he saw the announcement clearly on his phone screen.

"Innalillahi wainnailaihi rojiun!" said Maya.

"What's up, Mah?" Alvin was curious to see his mother until it looked like shock.

Maya looked up, looking at Alvin's face. "Vino's son om Bambang died at dawn at 04:30" Maya replied with a surprised look.

The deg..! Instantly Alvin was stunned, he was surprised to hear the words from Maya. His mind went straight to the woman he loved. "Riana, Mah!" pekik Alvin's worried. Alvin immediately got up from his seat wanting to leave.

"Where are you going?"

"I want to go there! I want to make sure Riana's okay, Mah!" answer Alvin.

"Mama's coming! We're feeling it with your brother too!" bala Maya also stood up and the two went to their respective rooms to change clothes.

Ani continued to embrace her daughter from the side, she was powerless to see her son's distress. "That's so sorry, son. At a young age must be a widow." Ani inner after finishing reading the letter yasin.

Riana hugged her husband's body lying stiff. The girl felt lost, she rejected the reality before her. She was not ready to leave her husband. "Why did you leave so soon? Why is it that when I open my heart you leave me?" lirih Riana slowly in Vino's ear.

"Darling, you must be strong!" Laras could not bear to see his daughter-in-law crying. He woke up Riana and hugged the weak body

"Why does a Vino leave me, Mah? We have planned our future. A Vino promised to make me happy then why is he leaving now?" riana muttered while in her in-laws arms.

"Sorry, we're late." Said someone who had just reached the funeral.

"It's okay, May. The distance from Jakarta Bandung is quite far. So we understand it" replied Bambang.

"We are also sorry. May the worship charity Vino received and hopefully Vino placed in the best place according to HIM Aamiin," said Maya.

"Aamiin, thank you for coming." Reply Laras hugged Maya.

Alvin patted Iqbal on the shoulder. "May your families be given fortitude." Alvin said when he met Iqbal.

"Thanks, bro." Reply Iqbal also patted Alvin's shoulder.

Then Alvin who was beside Maya looked at the pokus to the woman in front of him. Alvin's heart was sliced to see the state of Riana, her white face looks pale, her eyes were swollen due to most crying, her condition looks chaotic. Slowly crouching in front of Riana, the man prayed.

After everything was done, a part of the Bambang family left the place. Riana herself still wanted to be there.

"We're home, baby!" take Yanto to Riana.

Riana stood up, and Yanto grabbed her child's shoulder to support the child's weak body. Then they all left the burial area.
