"Ma ...." Hanna held onto the soft hand that was beginning to wrinkle.


"What are you saying, son!" Rika looked over hoping Hanna explained everything.


"I'm sorry Hanna, Ma! Hanna didn't ask Mama for permission. Because this marriage is not legal, Ma.


" What do you mean?" ask Rika.


"Hanna and Mas Reyhan just married the series, Ma." Hanna holds both Rika's hands.


"Because Reyhan is still not officially divorced, Auntie," Reyhan chimed in.


Rika was getting shocked to hear Reyhan's words. The girl he had loved so far could marry without her permission. The problem is not who he is getting married to. However, why would Hanna get married without telling herself.


"Mama's disappointed with you Hanna." Rika left the living room.


Hanna as much as she could, I don't know how else she could explain everything to Rika. Her stubborn mother made Hanna worry. Will the wedding be about by the mother? Hanna was getting sober thinking about her fate.


"Mas, what if mom doesn't approve of our marriage?"


"Honey, patience. Help talk to Mom." Reyhan embraces his wife, hoping Hanna can be calmer.


While Rika who was in her room cried as much as she could. His overly domineering thoughts made him emotional. Wanting to get angry, but all was already done, the rice has become porridge. He wanted to forgive but his heart said no.


"What should I do God! I failed to educate my son to be a good man." Rika continues to criticize.


Time has shown at 19:30 p.m., but Rika has not yet left her room. The restless Hanna decided to come to Rika. He knocked on the door, but there was no answer from the inside and tried to open the doorknob, apparently not in the key. Hanna saw her mother fall asleep after crying a while ago. He approached the mother who was asleep.


"Ma, I'm sorry Hanna, it's all for Mama's sake. Hanna doesn't want Mama to be hard anymore. We have suffered enough all this time. Hanna just wants Mama to be happy." Hanna with tears.


Rika who turns out not to sleep, can hear all what Hanna said. For the sake of making her happy she was willing to do all this, it made Rika again shed tears. Waking up and hugging the child was all Rika could do.


"Sorry Mama, son! Sorry Mama," Rika kept apologizing.


Reyhan, who had been watching from behind the open door, decided to enter the room. Slowly she approached Hanna who was crying with her mother.


"It's all happened, Auntie just asked you never to hurt Hanna once. Because, even this big Aunt has never made Hanna cry. Even though he was raised without the affection of a father, but he never lacked the slightest affection.


Reyhan nodded in understanding at everything Rika said. The three now enjoy their first dinner at Hanna's house.


"Ma, Hanna same Mas Rey plans to settle in Surabaya. If you don't mind, Hanna wants to invite Mama to stay with us," Hanna expressed her desire to invite the mother to move to Surabaya.


"What about this house, honey. My mom was too sweet to leave him. This house is the legacy of your late father, only this house that has many memories with him" explained Rika.


"We can rent it out Ma. So there are people who take care of this house" Hanna explained.


The three also had dinner together with small chats. While at Reyhan's residence, Ria comes in angrily, having not discovered Reyhan's whereabouts.


"Rey, Reyhan. Where are you hiding! Come out of you, I want to talk to you," Ria cried out for Reyhan, with a voice echoing through the room.


"Eh, you have no manners! Enter the house of a playful person, you think my house is a forest!" Rita warns Ria.


"Eh, Mama, sorry. Ria thought there was no one," Ria with a sense of innocence.


"Ma, Reyhan where the hell is it? In cariin papa, told to go back he said." Ria sits her ass on the sofa.


"Reyhan is happy, you no longer need to disturb him" explained Rita.


"Where can be happy without money from papa, everything will depend on papa," said Ria.


"Emang you think Reyhan is that poor? without you and your family Reyhan is already rich. Remember well! If not for Reyhan your papa company is also bankrupt," he said.


Ria fell silent, examining all the words of the in-laws. Since the beginning Reyhan has been competent in running the company, just because the father's debt was very much, making him have to marry Ria.


Without saying goodbye Ria immediately went to leave the house, no matter where else her current destination was, Reyhan who she thought was in her house was just not in place. When he was about to die, his car accidentally passed Reyhan's car. He immediately stopped the car.


"Rey ..," Ria undoes her intention to call Reyhan when she finds out that a young woman has gotten out of Reyhan's car.


"Who is that woman?"
