Dowager Bohay
Mother Mina's Interrogation



The driver who delivered the Rose opened the car door before the car was parked. After reading the bismillah and a few short letters in his heart, the Rose got out of the car and set foot into a magnificent house with a large garden in front of him.


The rose felt like it was in a fairy tale world, where it was in a magnificent castle owned by the prince. Never imagined in the mind of a village girl like Rose will have a husband handsome, rich and also very loving. All like stories in fairy tales and novels made by Mizzly alone.


Before long the front door of the house of Djiwa opened. The housekeeper with a warm smile welcomed his arrival. He told the rose to come in.


Rose took off the sandals she was wearing outside the house and followed the steps of the house assistant Djiwa into the house with a large crystal lamp in the middle. "It's so big that Mas Djiwa's house," Inner Rose.


The rose remembered the badminton field in his village first. This house is much wider than the badminton field. The living room alone is almost as large as a badminton field. "Can there be a house this big in Jakarta? Contract houses are expensive, especially homes like this. How much is a house this big?" the Rose again.


"Please sit down, I'll be right out." Household assistant Djiwa invited Roses to sit in the living room.


The rose sits itself on a soft, soft white sofa. The Rose's feet stepped on a thick carpet that felt very soft. The rose noticed a large figura in the living room.


In a large figura made of wood carving, Djiwa stands with his parents. The handsome face of Djiwa is a combination of the faces of his parents. What dream could Rose marry the son of a rich man like Dsiri?


"Handsome isn't my son?" The sound of ketus startled Rose who was busy looking at the big figura.


Rose stood up and stretched out her hand to salim at Mother Mina who today wears a white blouse with black pants. She looks beautiful and beautiful even though she is no longer young.


Rose's hand is not avenged by Mina's mother. The half-century-old woman stared at the feet of the sandless Rose. He shook his head as he muttered softly, "Based on the village girl!"


The rose pulled back her hand that was not welcomed by Mother Mina. His heart ached when ignored like that. But the Rose is not the name if it is not strong to withstand trials like this. Still light compared to his life in prison.


"Sit down!" mother Mina's command now sits some distance from the Rose.


Roses according. He sat back on the white sofa that now did not feel soft anymore. Obviously, he is now back in court like a few days ago but with a different place.


"I told the driver to pick you up was to ask about my son. Where has he been for the past few days?" ask Mina's mother.


"Sa-I don't know, Mom," replied the Rose honestly.


"Don't lie to you! You know where my son is, right? His phone could not be reached. Assistant too. There was only an email sent to my husband saying that Djiwa was on a sudden leave of absence. I have sent people to your shop and also did not find the whereabouts of my son. You hid where he is?" cecar Mina's.


The rose breathes deeply and exhales slowly. Filling a patient stock in him. Facing his in-laws should be with a cold head. Do not let emotions rule. Not the blessing that he will get, even legal problems that will await him.


"Honestly, I'm also looking for Mas Djiwa, Mom. Just like Mom, Mas Djiwa could not be contacted by me. I could not sleep because I was worried about Mas Djiwa. I think Mas Djiwa left me, "Roses replied innocently.


"Good dong then," said Mother Mina with a sharpness.


Hearing the woman in front of him say that if he prayed for Djiwa, there was a bit of warmth felt by Mother Mina. The innocent and honest attitude of the woman in front of him made a little confidence in him grow.


Mina's mother recalled her argument with her husband after returning from the Rose shop. The plan to crash and scold Mawar was canceled because her husband took her home suddenly. The reason is also a change.


"Ma, Papa as a businessman has met many people. Know which ones are two-faced and which ones are honest. The woman named Rose had been telling the truth. His eyes were like weak kittens that would not claw at his master. He loved Djiwa so much and Papa saw that he did not intend to deceive Djiwa. Remember Ma, Djiwa did not want to ask for forgiveness. Smart as well naudzubillah. He can tell which is good and which is not. Which is sincere and self-reliant. Although at first did not believe the words of Djiwa, when he saw the Rose, Papa believed. Try to look at the rose with an open mind. Forget the dark past. He is so innocent and honest. That's what made Papa stop hitting him. Just leave Djiwa with his choice," said Pak Prabu at length.


Mina's mother stared fixedly at the Rose. The woman in front of him was indeed very innocent and somewhat clumsy. Despite wearing expensive clothes, his beautiful gaze could not be covered. "His face is indeed beautiful, looks more elegant with clothes that Djiwa would buy. But why is his past so bleak?" inner Mother Mina.


"How long have you been in jail?" ask Mina's mother. The question is still a bit tart but the tone of his voice is not cruel before.


"Five years, Mom."


"Kok can the perpetrator of the murder only be sentenced to five years? Isn't it usually fifteen years at the very least?" mother Mina Syndicate.


"Because ..the evidence is less robust and there are no witnesses or CCTVs, ma'am."


"You didn't pay the lawyer?"


The rose shook its head. "Just a lawyer from the state, ma'am. I don't have the money to hire a lawyer."


Mina's mother wasn't stupid, right what Djiwa said. It was a bit strange that the prison sentence was handed down to Roses. Like there's an inside game.


"Where is your family?" Mina's mother changed the question. No more prison issues.


"Both of my parents are dead. There was my aunt .. but I haven't acknowledged myself as a brother since I was imprisoned" Rose replied honestly.


Mother Mina's heart felt sad. He began to feel sorry for the rose. "So you're alone in Jakarta?"


Roses nodded. "Yes. I went to Jakarta alone."


Just as Mother Mina was about to ask another question, the housekeeper Mother Mina walked inside with a hurried face. "What's up, Bi?"


"Mom, there are friends of Mom's funeral outside," the housekeeper replied with a gasp of breath. He ran away from the front gate.


"Arisan's friends? Oh my God, I forgot there's a gravestone today!" Mina's mother patted her forehead. "What are we suguhin, Bi?"
