Almost the rice barrel held by Marni's mother, Eve's mother separated from her hands, surprised not playing when she saw the figure of her daughter appeared before her.
The woman placed the centong on a plate that had wanted to serve the order of the customer who wanted to have lunch in her stall. However, Eve's sudden arrival makes everything no more important than welcoming her daughter.
"You came, son, O God, what a dream mother could meet you. Why didn't you tell me you were going home?" mother Marni hugged Eve.
His longing that culminated in his only daughter made Marni forget about the surroundings. Four young men, who wanted to eat in their stalls, looked at them and were filled with questions about Eve's presence.
The young men felt they had never seen Eve and they did not know her either. The change that occurred in Eve made the four young men who were actually her school friends look pangling and also so admire the beauty of Eve.
"Sorry Mom, I miss my father and mother so come home suddenly like this, do not have time to tell," replied Eve who had prepared an answer while on the way home. He knew thousands of questions would be directed at him by both his parents and perhaps the surrounding citizens as well.
"Sorry ma'am, where's our rice order?" ask one of the four who finally awakened Mother Marni so as to immediately prepare their order. Eve of course knew the four, smiled kindly at them and nodded respectfully.
The four young men who felt reprimanded were of course excited, nervous and clumsy because they were greeted as beautiful as Eve.
"Sorry, Neng is from the city, huh? Brother Marni's mother?" ask one of them named Ujang.
"It's me, Ujang. Eve, when you forget your own friends, while I just remember. You Ujang, this is Teddy, Naryo and Gilang, right?" said Hawa with a smile, her beautiful face increasingly seen shining in the eyes of the four young men who were shocked because they did not think that the girl they admired was their old classmate Eve.
Eve had always been one of the village flowers in their place. Her natural beauty and polite speech made Eve widely recognized by the youth there, both from her village and neighboring village, and now when the girl who was rumored to wander into the city has now returned to her hometown with a very extraordinary appearance, of course making the young men pangling.
"Take your son Miss Marni?" this time Naryo spoke up. Eve simply nodded with a smile in response to her curiosity and disbelief.
"I said yes first" he told his four friends, he wanted to meet his father.
Mr. Tarjo's health has improved, he was able to sit in a different chair seven months ago, when Eve decided to go to the man, she still had to lie in bed because she could not stand up. Tarjo immediately ran when he saw the arrival of Eve on the doorstep to welcome the arrival of his favorite Princess.
"Daddy's daughter, are you home, son?" he said with novelty, tears seemed to bathe his eyes.
The two hugged and Eve could not hold back her crying anymore. His heart raged filled with longing and also guilt for his father. At first he thought it inappropriate to embrace his father with his already different state of self.
His two sisters rushed into his arms, after hearing from neighbors that Eve had come home. Luckily Tiger understood, before returning home he invited Eve to stop by how many shops to buy souvenirs.
"I can't accept this, Tiger. Why should you pay? I have money" said Eve, who felt bad for Tiger. The man nimbly first paid at the cashier when Eve had finished shopping, she had provided souvenirs for her mother's father and her two younger siblings.
Before going to the clothing store, Tiger also had to stop by the bakery and also bought a lot of food for Eve to return to the village.
Eve's eyes warmed up, she was so touched and wanted to cry. Tiger was so kind to him all this time he never looked one eye at Eve's work.
"Why are you so good, Tiger? Right now I'm no longer your boss's mistress that you have to take care of and you treat well" he said.
"Because it's Miss, none of this has anything to do with your work or your relationship with my boss. I'm doing this because I already consider you as my sister."
"Never call me Miss then, call my name and thank you for being my brother. Forever I will remember you" said Eve, with her eyes blurred by tears.
Tiger just nodded, he hated this kind of atmosphere that made him want to tear up. He's never been this sad in his life since his parents were gone.
Tiger escorts Eve to the bus station that will take the girl back to her hometown. Tiger had sworn to Eve that he would never tell anyone about Eve's passing even to Adam.
"Swear Tiger, if you'll never tell Adam where I'm going" Eve asked before boarding the bus.
Although heavy, Tiger rounded his heart that it was his only promise that would be fulfilled despite the life of the stakes.
"promises. You can keep my promise. For the sake of this promise I'm willing to lose anything, you don't have to worry."
Eve could not say anything more to repay Tiger's kindness she immediately hugged the man who managed to make Tiger surprised. What if Adam had seen Eve embrace him like this, Adam would have killed her. Though Eve's embrace was a sister's embrace to her brother, a hug that thanked her a lot for Tiger's help to her.
"Here you go, lady, don't cry anymore. Forget everything that happened in Jakarta. I pray you will have a better and happier life with the person who will love you.
"Bless Tiger" Eve answered in their arms. May I call you brother?"
There was a warm feeling in Tiger's heart, he who was a kara, now suddenly had a foster sister. He smiled and then nodded.
Tiger kept watching the bus move slowly. Tiger accompanied Eve's departure with prayer and also sadness in her heart. He hoped that the girl would find her happiness elsewhere because somehow Eve and Adam in this life might not be a match.
"Goodbye Eve, I will forever remember you in my heart as a sister."
The bus had already passed far away, then disappeared from his sight. Shaking the phone in his pocket resuscitated Tiger and immediately saw the incoming call that was none other than his boss.
"Tell Eve I'll stop by the apartment tonight!"
