Love to Alena

Love to Alena
Grief



"Alena, please pick up the phone!" damar said as he continued to try to call Alena's phone. But it is useless, because Alena's phone has been deactivated by her. At the moment Alena really does not want to be disturbed by anyone including Damar.


"Damar, what are you doing nelfonin Alena? I told you that your engagement to Alena was void!" said Asih's upset mother


"Mom, why did Maen's mother cancel Damar's engagement to Alena? Damar loves mom with Alena!" said the upset Damar.


"Love! love!, why do you love Alena, she is the son of a murderer, her mother has dared to lie to us Damar, she said, why from the beginning Retno's mother did not tell me about her father Alena who was in prison?" said the upset Mother.


"Mom, Alena is not wrong!" say Damar. "okay! maybe now her father Alena is still in prison for killing people, but her father was the mother who had confessed to the crime, not Alena!" petulant


"Well, anyway!, either way whenever you won't agree that she's mom's daughter-in-law, period!" asih's mother's warning was firmly on Damar.


Then Mr. Joko mediated his second to break up the commotion, he stopped the heated debate between mother and child.


"Udah! already!, are you not ashamed to storm malem malem like this? I'm ashamed to see the same neighbors outside!" said Joko sir to Asih's mother. "Trus you are also Damar, can't slow to talk to your mother!" connect her again who looks towards Damar.


"Sir, what else does Damar have to do? maen's mother canceled Damar's engagement with Alena without talking to Damar first, Alena is not wrong what sir!" sahut Damar's.


"Damar, you know if it says the same mother, still belain Him, it is clear there is evidence that his father Alena is in prison, I don't want our family's good name to be polluted!" said Asih's mother


"But it's mom..."


"Udah! anyway tomorrow morning we talk again this matter calmly, no need to use this storm!" said Joko


After that Damar immediately entered his room with a feeling of annoyance and anger. He closed the door of his room tightly until his voice was heard by his sister who was in his room. Incidentally the Princess's room was next to Damar's.


"Kasian mas Damar, his engagement in the abort is the same mother, anyway I have to help mas Damar so that He can be the same again mba Alena!" said the Princess who was silent turned out to peek at the window of her room.


Just then the Princess heard all the talk of her two parents with Damar, her older sister. He felt sad and also kasian with his brother because his engagement plan had been canceled by his mother just like that.

In Damar's room.


Damar was so upset by his mother's words, he felt he could not accept if his mother called Alena the son of a murderer. He also laid his body on his mattress, his heart ached when he remembered his mother's words. Then Damar tried to contact Alena's phone again but the results remained the same, the phone is still not active as well.


Like her Alena did accidentally disable her phone. At that time Damar felt guilty to Alena because her mother's speech must have been heard in the ears of Retno's mother, Alena's mother. He also sighed violently while continuing to stroke his chest, trying to calm himself from anger.

The next day.


Alena asked permission from the office superiors where she worked not to enter work today. He was forced not to go to work because his mood was bad and not good. He does not want if his bad mood can interfere with the concentration of his work.


Alena took advantage of her free time to help her mother sell gado gado in front of the house. Indeed, it has become his habit to also help his mother sell gado gado in her spare time.


That morning Alena seemed busy tidying up her mother's wares at the table. But there is something different from Alena, she was always cheerful but now she looks silent and moody. How not, the engagement that has been planned by him and also Damar has been canceled just like that to make him sad and devastated. The dream that Alena always hoped for from the past is now just wishful thinking.


"Alena, how are you feeling now?" ask Retno's mom. "Why make your favorite fried rice?" connect her again who tried to comfort Alena by cooking her favorite meal.


Alena shook her head "no wonder, Alena no longer wants to eat anything, besides Alena had been drinking milk so still a little full!" sahut Alena who is thin


"Jude..."


Then Alena resumed her activities tidying up the material for a hodgepodge on the table. Alena's sadness has made Retno's mother's heart so she also felt her sadness, she felt heartless when she saw the look on her daughter's face that looked sad. Yet just as her Alena was trying to cover her up.


After that Retno's mother went to the bathroom to take ablution water, she wanted to perform Dhuha prayers. After the prayer, Retno's mother prayed to the creator of heaven and earth solemnly.


"Oh Allah, give my son the strength and patience to face the trials You have given him. If Damar is the best mate for Alena, then unite them both. But if indeed they are not a match then there is a substitute, aamiin.." (prayer mother Retno in the heart).


As long as Retno's mother prayed, Alena silently watched her. And without feeling his tears fell dripping on both cheeks. Alena felt sad when she saw her mother praying. Although He does not know what his mother is asking the creator but he knows that his mother must be praying for the best for him.


Without feeling the time goes quickly, the sky above looks dark with a cloud color that is somewhat reddish indicating that the time of Maghrib has arrived. As usual Alena did maghrib prayers along with her mother.


(flashback on)


That night Asih's mother called Retno's mother, she talked about Damar's engagement with Alena. But suddenly, Asih's mother immediately canceled the engagement of Damar and Alena just like that on the grounds that she did not want her family's good name to be contaminated if later messaged with Retno's mother, Because Alena's father was an inmate.


After she finished calling Retno's mother, Alena's mother. Damar arrived home, then his mother immediately told Damar about the cancellation of his engagement with Alena.


Asih's mother also told Damar the same reason. Suddenly it made Damar surprised when he heard the decision from his mother who arrived it. Out of curiosity, he immediately called Alena's phone but Alena had deactivated her phone.
