LOVE STRATA 1

CS1 Treats Past Wounds

Sunday morning, Anjani had prepared with a navy robe and a matching hijab. Anjani's mood was so bright. From then on, his smile broke. I can't wait for him to meet the person Mario is referring to.

"So Mario wants me to see who, anyway?" Anjani wondered.

"Anjani, there's Nak Mario up ahead!" exclaim Uncle Sam.

"Yes, Uncle!" sahut Anjani who immediately grabbed the sling bag and out of the room.

After a little chat with Uncle Sam, Mario permission to go with Anjani. Uncle Sam would have allowed Mario. It's not what he said for a long time.

In the car, Mario can feel the joy of Anjani's heart. Mario smiled at her.

"So happyare you meeting me, Anjani?" janda Mario.

"Yes," answered Anjani spontaneously with a sweet smile.

Anjani intentionally assented. Honestly Anjani already memorized with the piety of Mario. Anjani is aware that Mario will continue to tease her, launching her flirtation, even making her mumble with his sweet words.

"Meli's still in Jogja, huh?" ask Mario.

"Yes, meet Mas Azka. Eyang Probo is also still sick. Hopefully it will improve soon. Meli really wants to get to know her eyes Azka more closely," explained Anjani.

Mario nodded, then prayed for the recovery of Eyang Probo.

"You don't want a vacation to Jogja?" ask Mario.

"Ingin, anyway. Maybe it will be a semester holiday. Hidhi. Refreshing as well." Anjani still remembers very well the atmosphere of Jogja during the holidays last semester with Meli.

"All right, we're on our honeymoon in Jogja" Mario chirped.

"Deeeh?" Anjani spontaneously turned.

Anjani. These past few days Mario's words have often been shocking. Often romantic, even this time has dared to discuss honeymoon plans to Jogja.

Not wanting to drag on and get stuck in the cradle of Mario's words, Anjani chose silence. He enjoyed the view outside the window.

"Anjani, until this moment you are still willing to marry me, right?" ask Mario suddenly. He was worried after meeting Anjani's father instead of avoiding Mario.

Anjani turned her head, and looked at Mario in surprise.

"When did I say I was willing to marry you?" anjani.

"Hm? So your kisses and love words back then what did they mean?" Mario deliberately.

Anjani's face meets. He was still very embarrassed when reminded of his crazy attitude when stopping Mario's blind punch at Rangga.

"Don't be nipped again. Yes, I'm willing," Anjani said while throwing a face away.

Mario is very worried about Anjani's behavior. He kept driving the car smiling.

"Anjani, I really hope we can have a wedding after you meet him" said Mario.

"Heady? Who the hell are we meeting?" Anjani's curiosity returned.

Mario did not answer. He smiled while looking across the street. His car was slowly stopped right across from the Bakaran side dish rice stall.

"Let's see!" mario's orders, pointing towards the stall.

Anjani watched carefully. Initially the figure appointed Mario is not clearly visible because it is covered by a group of buyers.

"Ma!" exciting Anjani.

Anjani was excited to see his mother in the shop. However, the next second the look on Anjani's face changed. No more smiles on his face. Suddenly the look on Anjani's face was filled with hatred when he saw the figure of the father.

"Dad," Anjani sissed, not liking what he saw.

Mario watched every change in Anjani's face. Mario can feel what Anjani is feeling.

"Mario, what do you mean?" anjani Pinta.

"Ma can forgive your father's mistakes. They both looked after and loved each other. Anjani, your father really wants to apologize to you." Mario explained carefully.

Anjani looked at Mario with a gaze that was difficult to explain. Hatred still rests on his father's face.

"Let's get out of here!" Anjani serious.

"Anjani, please you ..."

"Now, Mario! Or drop me down here. Let me go home by ojek only," Anjani threatened.

Mario relented. He drove his car away from the stall. Along the way there was no chatter. Anjani continued to look outwards. Until then Mario's car was stopped on a complex street that was so quiet.

"Why stop here, Mario! I want to go home!" anjani said seriously.

Mario perfectly stopped his car. He sat down in his chair. He let Anjani chatter on her own, with no intention of paying any heed.

"OKAY. I'm getting off here!" exciting Anjani.

The desire to get down from the car was instantly dashed. Car door locked. Mario had no intention of opening it.

"Mario. What the hell do you want?" Anjani's tone was still the same as before.

Being asked like that made Mario instantly turn his head.

"I want you to calm down, Anjani." Mario is soft.

Anjani threw away face. Seeing the father's face, his heart was filled with emotion. Back Anjani tried to open the car door that still did not want to open.

"Open the door, Mario!" pinta Anjani while continuing to stomp the car door handle.

No response from Mario. Anjani constantly tried to open the door of the car that was locked tightly with his bare hands.

"Open!" exciting Anjani. "Please open this door, Mario!" shouted Anjani.

Mario did not heed Anjani's screams. While Anjani continues to try to open the car door until it looks so resigned. Suddenly, Anjani's tears flowed. A cry sounded later.

"Anjani, are you crying?" Mario panic.

"Open the door" Anjani cried.

"Anjani calm yourself." Mario tries to calm Anjani down.

Anjani's sobs are getting louder. Anjani's hand also no longer tried to open the car door. Both of Anjani's hands were busy covering her face. Hiding the inner chaos that gushed in tears.

It was very interesting that Mario leaned Anjani on his shoulder. Letting Anjani vent her grief, venting her anger and hatred. But it's all just a sense of wanting. Mario can't do it.

Fifteen minutes passed. Mario is still waiting faithfully Anjani until he is completely calm. After pouring out all the tightness in his sobs, Anjani began to be able to control himself.

"Sissue?" Mario thrusts a box of tissues at Anjani.

Without daring to stare at Mario's face, Anjani took out a few sheets of tissue and wiped away his tears.

"Drink." A bottle of mineral water was faced in front of Anjani's face.

Still not daring to see Mario's face, Anjani took the bottle and immediately drank it up to the toilet half of it.

Ten more minutes passed. There's no chatter. Anjani kept looking out the window. Mario is still faithful waiting for Anjani calmer.

"May I get a chance to be where you share?" ask Mario carefully.

There was no response from Anjani. Mario didn't force him. Until then, Anjani began to open up.

"I hate you" said Anjani.

"Dad dumped Ma. Makes Ma cry. Dad even blatantly chose another woman over Ma. I witness. I saw with my own eyes at the time, Mario." Anjani spontaneously looked at Mario and poured out all her heartache.

"Then, what do you get after successfully hating it?" ask Mario.

Anjani threw her face away, looking out the window again. He understood very well, the consequences of his hatred were only heartache.

"Anjani, I also have a past that is almost similar to yours. I'm sure you know my story. Even our marriage failed because of my father's affair at the time." Mario started his words.

Anjani. If you think about it, the story is almost similar to Mario. Mario chooses to forgive his father.

"Why did you forgive your father?" asked Anjani still bowed.

Mario's smile expands. Anjani has started listening to herself.

"Because he's my father. The status will remain the same at any time. He's still my father somehow how big a mistake he made" said Mario.

Anjani digested Mario's words with a cold head.

"In addition, I need her figure. Love, ", added Mario.

Hearing Mario's words, Anjani again sobbed. Honestly Anjani also needs the figure of the father. I want to feel his affection again. Want to feel the whole family again.

"Bath your past wounds. Pardon. Ikhlashkan," said soft Mario.

Mario's words revolved around his brain. Forcing to balance between feeling and logic. Anjani knows exactly what he wants. He needs a father figure in his life.

"I'm sorry dad" Anjani said between sobs.

Bright spot. Mario can feel it. Anjani was able to accept the presence of her father.

"Want to go back to that place?" ask Mario.

Anjani nodded steadily. That was welcomed by Mario.

"Remove your tears first" Mario softly advised.

Embarrassed Anjani grabs the tissue box in front of Mario. He rubbed slowly, removing the traces of tears that had stagnated.

Car back on. Mario's feeling is lighter now. Not until ten minutes, the car was parked neatly near the side dish rice stall.

Anjani immediately approached Ma who was there. Hugged it tightly.

"Anjani, Honey. You must be surprised, right?" ma asked while still hugging Anjani.

Anjani took off her embrace. She smiled sweetly at Ma. Then his eyes turned to look at his father. Slowly Anjani approached. Smile is offered sincerely.

"I'm sorry Anjani," Anjani said gently as she kissed the back of her hand.

Joko's tears are unstoppable. The awaited day arrives. His daughter forgave him. His family is back as intact as ever.

"Anjani, I'm sorry, son." Joko apologized.

"Anjani also apologized. Anjani shouldn't hate dad" Anjani softly said.

"Alhamdulillaahafemore. Very pleased Ma. Here and here you guys hug!" Ma hugged Anjani and her husband.

Many shop customers were moved to see it. Same with Mario. The mission has been accomplished. The Anjani family is reunited. Most important of all, Anjani has been treating her past wounds. Forgive. Chaff.

"Son Mario, here!" call Joko after the cuddle scene with her family.

Mario approaching. He immediately got one hug from Joko. Repeatedly Joko expressed his infinite gratitude to Mario.

"Father-in-law, after this may I marry Anjani?" ask Mario suddenly.

"Of course I can. Anjani, are you willing to marry Nak Mario?" ask Joko.

"It will be, of course" Ma said.

"Honey. Let's listen to Anjani's answer first" Joko suggested.

Actually Anjani is embarrassed. Mario really doesn't know the location. Maybe he asked his father for approval at the stall, when many customers were watching them.

Not romantic, Inner Anjani.

"Anjani?" call Joko who finds Anjani in her silence.

"Ep. Insha Allah," Anjani replied with a nod.

Joko and Ma are of course happy to hear Anjani's willingness. However, Mario seemed dissatisfied with Anjani's answer.

Anjani permission on her parents to see the condition of Rangga in the shop. Anjani returns one car with Mario.

"Anjani, why shut up?" mario asked after a few minutes passed without any chatter.

"You're not romantic" Anjani protested.

"Oh. So that's why you answered half-heartedly? You want to get romantic treatment from me?"

Mario suddenly pulled his car over. His body was slightly inclined, approaching Anjani's face. Mario stared fixed Anjani's eyeballs.

Deg-deg-deg!

Being stared at intensely like that made Anjani's heart pound. Suddenly the air in the car was so hot. Anjani wagged her hand.

Realizing that Anjani is misbehaving, Mario stops staring at Anjani. A small laugh followed later. Mario accidentally teases Anjani. Mario can already guess the reaction Anjani will show.

"Huf." Anjani was able to breathe a sigh of relief after Mario stopped looking at her.

"Anjani," call Mario.

"Em, huh?" Anjani.

"Saturday my parents will come to propose to you. Don't reject me, yeah!" A smile embellished on Mario's handsome face.

"If I refuse?" ask Anjani. Purposefully.

"You might be able to reject Rangga's love. But not with my love. I'm pretty sure you'll never be able to turn me down" Mario said with his pedal.

Anjani chuckles. He already does not want to serve the words of Mario which will inevitably lead to a fight.

"As for Young Master, please. Come on, get to Mas Rangga's place. Ohya, stop by to buy some porridge in front. Mas Rangga loves chicken porridge," explained Anjani enthusiastically.

"Anjani, can't you distract all the attention for that Rangga to me?" pinta Mario's.

"can't. Because of you Mas Rangga became a bonyok like that. In a minute feed him!" get Anjani.

"A-I feed Rangga, porridge?" Mario is hard to believe Anjani's request.

"If you don't want to, let me feed Mas Rangga" Anjani threatened.

"Don't! Let me feed him." Mario relented.

In Anjani's heart laughed triumphantly. Anjani is trying to kill Mario. However, Anjani wants to see Mario and Rangga close.
