In the middle of the grass, under a large and shady tree, Alya sat with cheeks that had been flooded with tears.
He cried sobbing while hugging his feet.
Behind Alya, without Alya knowing from earlier Farhan stood up while watching him.
Farhan deliberately did not go directly to Alya because he knew, Alya needed time alone to vent his anger and complaints.
After Alya's cries began to subside, Farhan slowly walked over to Alya! He sat down beside Alya but did not say anything to her.
Alya wiped her tears then looked at Farhan.
Farhan smiled faintly then grabbed Alya's hand! Alya held her hand gently and started talking.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying here?"
Alya shook her head slowly.
"Why not, why are you crying?"
"The cry doesn't have to be a problem or a wound. There are times when people cry to seek their inner calm."
"Aren't you calm because I'm getting married to your sister soon?"
"Absolutely not."
"Tell me that you love me."
"No Farhan, I don't love you anymore because you belong only to Najwa's brother."
"You lied. Your lips say no but your eyes tell me that you love me, you still love me so much. Let's reveal this truth Al, after all I'll never be able to live with someone I don't love."
"Don't you crazy Han, your marriage has been arranged and all the preparations are almost complete."
"But I don't want to marry Najwa, I want to marry you."
Alya's tears rolled back on her smooth cheeks.
"I'm not Mom's real son. I was born to my father's second wife. My mother has never loved me like she loved Najwa because she always hated my mother and she wanted me to make up for all my past mistakes so please understand Farhan. I don't want to make Mom hate me more, I love Bu Chandra even though she's not my real mother."
Farhan fell silent after hearing the statement from Alya.
"Our lives have not been as you have seen. Mom never loved me, she always hated me, she never cared about me. All this time do not pay attention, he never gave a smile for me. From a young age I lived with Mbok Darti which is why I was closer to him compared to Mom but even so, I will always respect Chandra's mother because without her maybe I wouldn't have lived until now."
"But Al, you deserve to be happy too. You can choose what you want to live. We love each other, what's wrong if we are united in the marriage rope. Come on Alya." Come on."
"Farhan, I beg ... forget all about us, assume we never knew."
"I love you, by God, I will continue to love you."
*******
The Chandra residence.
"Mbok, I want to go for a while please check Najwa in his room occasionally huh. He's still not feeling well he said, " Chandra said.
"Good Mom."
"Oh yeah, don't forget to remind him to take his medicine."
"Yes, Mom."
Chandra goes straight from his house and lets Najwa be guarded by Mbok Darti.
After Chandra leaves Mbok Darti goes straight to Najwa's room to make sure Najwa is there!
"Mbok, what's wrong?" ask Najwa.
"Mbok just wants to see how Najwa is. The mother who told Mbok to always monitor Najwa's mother because she was still sick."
"Oh, I'm fine Mbok. Here Mbok sits."
"Thank you Ma'am." Mbok Darti sat next to Najwa.
"Maybe don't want to Ma'am, maybe if Non Alya's mom comes home, Non Alya wants to go back to this house."
"I've asked Mom to pick up Alya but I don't want to and rich until Alya can return Dad, then I want to forgive Alya and invite Alya to stay here."
"Astaghfirullah."
"Why yes Mbok, this family is so messy like this when it used to be not. From the first mother did hate Alya but not to expel Alya from here but now ...." Najwa started crying.
"Prophey Ma'am, there comes a time when this family will be united again with happiness in it."
"Amen."
**********
"Did anyone see Alya?" ask Arka to his employees who are chatting in his office area.
"No sir."
"Where is he?" arka Mummings.
Arka saw the watch in her hand already showed twelve o'clock past fifty minutes but Alya had not returned yet.
Indeed, before leaving, Alya asked her permission and said maybe Alya would return to the office a little late but somehow Arka felt Alya had left long ago.
"Did I miss Alya?" arka said in his heart.
"Ah no way, why did I miss Alya? Girlfriend is not, wife is not," continued Arka again.
**********
"I'm honest Al, you love me."
"Farhan please don't ask me about this."
"You've always avoided me. I know you're sick to see me with Najwa. I love you Alya."
"I want you to marry Najwa's sister."
"Why would you sacrifice your happiness for Najwa and Chandra's mother?"
"I want you to forgive my birth mother and my father. I don't expect to stay with them anymore all I want is for you to forgive those who are gone."
"But not in this way Al."
"This is the only way because Mom asked me to let you get married. Mother asked me to stay away from you for Najwa's sake. Please do not talk about our love that will never be united until whenever I will not receive your love again."
"If Ms. Chandra asks us to get married, do you want to marry me?"
"That's not gonna happen."
"That's gonna happen. I'll talk to him and tell him everything."
"Don't. Don't Farhan, you don't go crazy."
"I'm crazy Al, crazy for your love. You know, I'm jealous to see you close to your boss.
"There's nothing between us there's just a relationship between a boss and his employees nothing more than that."
"But Arka loves you."
"It's just your prejudice after all we have nothing to do so even if Mr. Arka loves me, there's no reason for me to refuse."
"Can't. You belong to me and can only be mine forever."
"You mustn't be selfish, Farhan."
"You selfish Al, you told me to marry Najwa when you knew I didn't love him."
