Salma Story

"Lo must have been surprised, wasn't I suddenly here?" salma asked answered a nod by Gita.

Currently they are in Gita's room, after finishing dinner together with a menu of processed cuisine from Gita.

"A few months ago I was also here, vacationing with my cousin, but I'm not sure you know Lo's address. Before coming here, I asked for Lo's apartment address from Aunt Sinta," Salma continued to start at this place.

"And you must be wondering why I suddenly came?" Salma looked towards Gita who was sitting by her side, and the girl was seen nodding.

"First answer, because I want to apologize. Sorry for your mistake, somehow I feel everything that is happening at this time, the impact of my brother's statement." Both of Salma's eyes look teary when remembering everything that happened to her.

Gita shook her head, "No Ma, Lo has nothing to do with everything that happens between me and Brother Lo, it's all fate." Gita clasped her best friend's hand, hoping to calm Salma even though she did not know the cause of the two girls' eyes dewy.

"And from Lo know, I'm sorry Abang Lo," he added.

"Gue was grateful to Ma, with the incident Bang Indra realized his feelings for me. And now I feel happier than ever, "inner Gita.

Salma hugged Gita tightly, for some reason the guilt still continues to haunt her when the wrong thing is not her but her brother.

"Then Lo's second goal?" gita asked after releasing her second hug.

"Gue ran away" Salma replied.

"What?! Ngaco Lo, why run away? I don't want to be said to hide people's children," the reaction of the Gita actually made Salma chuckle, not believing if her best friend was overreacting.

"Darning is getting married" Salma said.

Gita did not understand the girl's words, she looked into Salma's two eyes, "Isn't it the same Lo, right?" she asked because Salma remained silent even though she knew she was confused.

The gel from Salma's head made Gita even more surprised, until she closed her gaping mouth, "Ah don't joke Lo. Must be me at the prank, actually Lo's here to give me an invitation, right?" although a little hesitant about the reasons he said, but Gita still does not believe in Salma.

"The Dawn of marriage is equal" said Salma lirih, perih when remembering the two names.

Gita hugged her best friend again, trying to give peace to the girl, she knew it must be very painful to see our loved ones marry someone else, moreover, the relationship of Salma and Dawn has started since the girl was first grade High School. But back again to fate, as long as they are dating, if not a soul mate will definitely end anyway. Like this Salma. But as he knew, Salma and Dawn rarely quarreled, they had been up no more than twenty-four hours at most.

"Our sister kingdom that Lo told you about?" asked Gita and Salma just nodded in response.

"Can't you?" how Gita is, but Salma can still hear her.

The Flashback

Salma was on her lunch break when she received a notification from her social media. DM from someone he does not like, because he once said blatantly if he likes the Dawn of his lover, even so he still sees the contents of the message. It turned out that the message contained an invitation to meet, without a second thought Salma agreed, although he was curious what the girl named Raya would say.

The appointed time arrived, Sunday afternoon in a cafe, Salma came first, and before long Raya also came with a face as usual, not friendly at all.

"Gue goes straight to the point, yes," said the girl named Raya, very stiff and cynical, different when in the message even called her 'Sister'

"Yes, please, what do you want to say?" Salma tried to act as calm as possible.

Raya gave him an object that he took from inside his bag. Salma did not understand, why did Raya give that thing to her? What does this have to do with him trying?

"What do you mean?" salma asked still in a calm manner, she did not want to guess.

"That's Mas Fajar's son" the girl's answer surprised Salma, but she didn't want to believe it.

"Don't slander ya, you must be making it up, right?" Salma was still calm, she was trying to control her emotions.

Salma still does not believe one hundred percent, although in fact she is afraid if the reality is true. Finally he decided to contact Dawn, telling her to catch up with him at the cafe. It didn't take long, Dawn finally came.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" asked the young man when he found his heart-lover wiping away tears.

But Salma immediately brushed off the hand of Dawn who wanted to wipe her tears.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?" salma asked, she wanted to hear from her lover's mouth straight away.

Dawn frowned, she did not feel like talking anything with Salma. There are, but he's not ready at the moment. It's impossible, right, if Salma knew?

"Nothing. What's the matter exactly?" tanyakanya.

"I repeat again, is there something that Brother wants to tell me? Did you keep secrets from me?" salma asked disregarding Dawn's question.

"Here you go, just say it. He knew it all," suddenly the Kingdom was behind Dawn, not since when because the two were unaware.

"You? Akh!" Dawn squeezing her hair, frustrated. Not expecting this soon Salma knew the truth.

"I'm sorry baby, I was drunk, he used me. I'm not conscious." Dawn grasped Salma's hand, the girl could not make any more contact, for she felt her body soft as boneless, knowing the truth.

Salma shook her head, "You should marry her, and cancel our marriage. Your son needs you more than I do. Maybe this is the last time we meet, let me explain myself to both my parents." Salma tried to toughen up, she stood as hard as she could. For some reason at a time like this someone he remembers is Gita, yes Gita must have felt the same pain as him today. Maybe this is karma.

Dawn grabbed Salma's hand, "I don't want to cancel our marriage, I love you baby, please forgive me. We're still getting married." Dawn begged, but Salma's decision was unanimous, she would still cancel this marriage.

"Deliver! Please release! I'll forgive you if you're responsible." Salma tried to remove the grip on her wrist.

"Sister, if you love me and love me, let me be happy without you, because if I stay with you, I'm not sure happiness is on my side. So let go of me! Remember brother, love is not always must have," Salma kept trying to take off Dawn's hand, but the young man was unmoved, unwilling to let go of her hand, until

Bugh

"Deliver! You shouldn't be like this." Ryan somehow came from nowhere suddenly directly hit the young man in the face.

"Come on Ma, I'll drive you home." Ryan pulled Salam's hand and took the girl away from the two people who made Salma cry.

During the ride silence ruled in the car, only a small sob of Salma's lips could be heard.

"You who are patient, behind all this there must be a silver lining." Ryan broke the silence in the car.

Salma nodded, "Does Brother Ryan already know?" tanyakanya.

Ryan nodded, "I already knew a few days ago. The dawn of everything, he was really drunk back then, not me defending him. But all of that has to be accounted for whether it's intentional or not." He said as he glanced at Salma.

Before long they reach the Gita residence, the girl goes straight into the house, after Ryan's car leaves the residence.

That day he told both parents everything about the failure of their marriage, although at first both parents were very angry, but finally they can accept even though they have to bear the shame because of the failure of their child marriage.

Until nightfall, Dawn and her parents came. Salma accidentally did not meet, but he could see if the face of Dawn was battered, it must have been the actions of Papa and his Brother. Fortunately, he had warned his Father and Brother not to hurt Dawn, as the Gita did at the time. Again Salma kept remembering Gita, it turns out she was experiencing the same thing at this time.

Two days later, after hearing from Ryan if Dawn is to marry Raya next Sunday, Salma decides to leave the house, precisely to London.
