Geck. Geck. Tok
Carrying her own sleeping pillow, Beth knocks on her door. Without waiting to be invited in by her mother, Beth opened the door shortly after knocking on her.
"Mom, are you sleeping?" Beth called her mother by bending her head.
Ms.Maria who was still cleaning her face in front of the dresser turned to the door. "Just go in, Beth! My mom hasn't slept yet!" answer the mother.
Bethsa Putry slid into her mother's bedroom and fell on the bed. "Can I sleep here with my mom tonight?" Beth looked straight at the back of Ms. Maria who was sitting behind her.
On the invisible side of Beth, Ms.Maria stopped her activities for a few seconds then let out a long sigh. "Can! But tumbeennn?!"
"Some of you want me to talk to you!" Beth no longer looks at the back of the same mother because she is busy aligning the pillow that is already on the mattress with the pillow she carries herself.
Beth glanced at the mother. It appears that the woman had finished cleaning her face and was now walking closer to the bed where her daughter was.
"On Rizzi?" ask Ms.Maria to the point. He then went into the blanket following the princess who had already done so.
"He em!" Beth nodded quickly.
The two then both face the ceiling of the room with side by side position.
"Don't you like Rizzi?" Beth started her interrogation.
"Mama likes. He's a nice guy, he's polite, and he looks so cute to you!" Ms. Maria chuckles when the shadow of Rizzi who always seems to put Beth first, at first glance reflected in her memory.
Beth smiled with a positive reaction from her mother. "But why did mama seem to still not welcome him?" Beth tried to break her heart.
Ms.Maria was silent. Beth also changed her sleeping position to be tilted facing her mother. "What is your mom worried about? Tell Beth, Ma! Let Beth and Rizzi know what our lack is in your eyes!" urge Beth.
Maria turned her head to the princess. She gently wears Beth's head.
"Mama is not less able to accept Rizzi, maybe you misinterpret the attitude of mama or it could be mama who is not right in behaving in front of you! But the real mama just doesn't want to get her hopes up, Beth!"
"What does mama mean?"
"Mama just don't want to be too convincing yourself that Rizzi is your soul mate. Because after all, before there was the word SAH, things could still happen, honey!"
Beth scowling. In her interpretation, her mother seemed pessimistic about their relationship, even though Beth and Rizzi themselves even tried their best to convince themselves that they were both destined to be together.
"Mama knows you're disappointed by your mother's attitude! But mama's not like this for no reason, Beth!" Ms.Maria tried to give understanding to the princess.
"What is your mother's reason?" ask Beth firmly.
"Experience, Son! It was an experience that made my mom like this!" ms. Maria replied quickly.
Beth shook her head in a sign of not understanding. The wrinkles on his forehead became. Maria looked back at the ceiling with bright eyes. His memory goes back a few years. When he was young and unmarried.
Pieces and pieces of that memory flashed in his memory. Dancing in her bright eyes stared at the ceiling of her room painted white clean with bright fluorescent lights in the middle.
Ms.Maria sighs. He began telling his story a few years ago to his daughter. The true story he wanted to keep in meetings without wanting to reveal again to the surface of the earth, especially to his own daughter.
But now, maybe this is the only way to convince Beth of the principles she's held so far.
Ms.Maria said that she had failed twice before her marriage.
The first story is about his mother with a village chief's son in Ny.Maria's place of origin. The man has even shown interest in Ms.Maria since she was in high school.
The man promised to apply for Ms.Maria when she graduated from school. At first Ms.Maria did not expect anything from the man, but when the man kept his promise and proposed to her shortly after she graduated school, bringing with her family and abundant gifts, at once, Ms.Maria's hopes for the man soared.
All the girls in her village were envious of Ms. Maria. Although Ms.Maria remained humble but the light of happiness that emanated from the innocent face of young Ny.Maria was enough to make a girl silently cornering the path of her happiness.
Everything was going smoothly until the moment before the wedding. But at the exact date that had been set, when Ms.Maria and her family had been waiting for the bridegroom to arrive at their residence for the wedding, the man and his family never came.
The messenger from the man's family, who told him that the village chief's son was forced to marry another girl who had trapped him to become pregnant.
Although framed, but as the son of an important person in the village, the man's family still told the man to marry the girl who turned out to be a close friend of Ny.Maria since she was in school.
Ms.Maria disappointed. The first major disappointment of his life. Because of the shame that struck, supported by the condition of the father who became sickly since the event, demanded the family Ny.Maria to move to the city.
For the sake of finding the right treatment for the father, and for the sake of treating the wounds in his heart as well, Ny.Maria steady invites his entire family to move to the big city.
It is in this big city that the second story of Ny.Maria's painful love journey takes place. Years after the hijrah, Ms.Maria and her family who felt they had rediscovered their peaceful lives again experienced trials.
Ms.Maria who was undergoing a beauty course at that time, met a man who admired her so much. The man was the older brother of one of his course friends.
Since meeting with Ms.Maria while driving her sister to the course, the man immediately fell in love. All efforts he put in to make an approach to young Ny.Maria.
Assisted by the sister who is a classmate of Ny.Maria, finally the man managed to get the heart of Ny.Maria after a long effort. Their relationship is seamlessly intertwined, even when the entire family of the man comes to propose, Ms.Maria seems to have her hopes back about a marriage.
But a month after the engagement took place, the family of her future husband suddenly canceled their engagement unilaterally.
From the prospective sister-in-law who is also her course friend, Ms.Maria learned that the family of her future husband went into sudden bankruptcy and required the man to have a political marriage with the son of another company owner to save his family business.
For the second time, Ms.Maria was faced with her biggest disappointment. He also vowed to no longer give hope to the man who came in his life.
Until finally Ms.Maria met with Mr. Johan who incidentally is her Papa Beth and her younger brother-Hengky. The only man who promised nothing, the only man who came without giving promises and grandiose hopes, but was actually able to bring Ms.Maria to the fold.
The accidental and unexpected encounter between the two, so dramatic. At that time, Ms.Maria who had just returned home from the salon where she worked was secretly followed by a man who had malicious intentions towards her.
When Ms.Maria almost reached her house, the evil man immediately ambushed her. Drags him. And take him to a quiet, dark place. That night Ms.Maria could have been raped if Mr. Johan did not come on time and help her.
Mr. Johan is a childless widower who happens to be passing by after attending the wedding of a relative not far from the house of Ms.Maria.
When he saw a woman being dragged in the dim light, Mr. Johan was suspicious. He bravely followed the bad man to believe that he had witnessed a case of attempted rape and immediately saved Ny.Maria.
Unfortunately the rumors that have been circulating in the community is about Ms.Maria who has been successfully raped by the bad man, when in reality she is not. Mr. Johan made the rescue at the exact moment before Ms.Maria was actually raped.
The results of the visa also stated that there has been no rape. Only still a persecution. But what the people around him believe is different.
For a while, Ms.Maria and her family were forced to live in the shame and pity of those who considered them to be poor families.
Until one day, Mr. Johan came back like a hero who immediately proposed and was ready to marry Ny.Maria to be his wife. Without giving grandiose expectations, without giving sky-high promises, but Mr. Johan is able to give a real marriage that has been like an empty hope in Ms.Maria's life.
"When God brings in good men in your life, your only duty is one, son! A simple but winding task, which is to wait! Don't hope! But just wait! And don't keep anyone in your heart, Beth! Because the heart can change over time. Keep a person in the do'a, for it is recorded in the sky, forever." - Miss.Maria said to the princess that night.

@Digdaya family residence,
In a spacious room with a long marble table placed in the middle. What they use as a dining table surrounded by chairs made from Jepara teak with pads coated with high quality leather, Mr and Mrs Digdaya through their breakfast sessions alone.
"Lately Papi hasn't seen Rizzi having breakfast with us at home, where's the kid?" asked Mr. Tirta to his wife after wiping her mouth with clean napkin.
"Some days Rizzi always say goodbye to Mami early in the morning before breakfast. But he didn't say where he was going." replied Mrs.Rukmini.
"Why not be asked?" pak Tirta's Protest. Glanced with a flat-face look towards Mrs.Rukmini who was still enjoying the last mouthful of her toast.
"Rizzi is a big, mature man. Like where he is going! Why do we bother doing the business of a child who is already that old." Mrs.Rukmini ended her breakfast by emphasizing vegetable juice as a complementary menu that is routinely served for her in the morning.
Pak Tirta seemed to snort angrily accepting the wife's answer. Although aware of the husband's annoyance, but Mrs Rukmini chose to chuckle and remain calm. She knows her husband's character.
Mrs Rukmini knows, Mr. Tirta will not seek or ask her children when she feels no need with them. That means, Mr. Tirta is now in need of the presence of Rizzi until the stubborn old man took the time to ask the whereabouts of the youngest son.
Rukmini is also still covering up about Rizzi's new lover in front of her husband. He thinks it is better if Mr. Tirta becomes the last person to know about Rizzi's relationship with his new lover than things happen that are not desirable.
Rizzi's mother was convinced, Mr. Tirta would not approve of Rizzi's relationship with this ordinary girl. Because the old man was the one who upheld the equality of status, degrees, and so on.
Fortunately the first child and the second child are very understanding of the nature of the Papi, so they as much as possible look for a partner who will not be opposed by Pak Tirta.
Unfortunately not so with his youngest son, Rizzi. His style is indeed lower profile than his two brothers, making Rizzi have friends from various circles.
And now Rizzi even chose a partner who is also from the family group who will definitely get opposition from Pak Tirta. But not Mrs.Rukmini's name if you can't put up a body to help her children.
After knowing the fact that Rizzi's choice this time is a good girl and from a good family, in addition to the simplicity of her family, Ms. Rukmini felt she had no reason to oppose Rizzi's relationship with Beth.
For that he must find a way so that Rizzi can defend a Bethsa Putry and bring him into the family Digdaya without being scuttered first by Mr. Tirta.
Pak Tirta who felt it was time for him to go to the office also rose from his seat. Followed by the wife who drove him to get into the car, Mr. Tirta remained silent as usual.
But when he was sitting in the back seat, suddenly Pak Tirta opened the car door window and said something to his wife,
"Same Rizzi, tonight this week make time to have dinner with the child of the owner of PT.Kejora. Papi wants to mate him with Mr. Makhtum's son." he said then without waiting for a response from his wife he immediately closed the car window.
Mrs.Rukmini pecked for a moment. He who was in shock for a moment was unable to think clearly, until he remembered the group chat Rozmyta made. Rukmini rushed to her room and searched her cell phone.
At that time he felt very sorry to never have the habit of carrying the sophisticated object everywhere like his best friend Jeng Naina.
Why at a time like this my phone even did not meet anyway!!! his tirade in heart.
"Mbak Juuummmm, look at my hape no???" yells at his flagship housekeeper.
Mbak Jum who heard the screams of the great madam immediately came to face the most powerful woman in the house.
"Enggeh, Mum? Call me?"
"You see my hape?" asked Mrs.Rukmini in a panic.
Not so with his housekeeper. The woman from the village immediately grabbed her own phone from inside her apron pocket and pressed the phone button.
Before long, a loud ringtone emerged from behind a brown envelope containing personal data of Bethsa Putry. Mbak Jum approached the envelope, picked it up, then took the employer's phone from there and handed it to Mrs.Rukmini.
"Here, Mom, the phone."
Mrs.Rukmini gawked for a moment. "Do you have my contact number?" tanyanya did not believe while looking at the cellphone that was now in her grasp.
"Except for my number, I have the contact number of everyone in the house, Mom! Including his contacts Non Roz and Non Sofia" he reported plainly.
"I never know?" Mrs.Rukmini wonder.
"Lha mom never did it."
"Yes too, yeah!" reply Mrs.Rukmini feels strange. He then looked at the screen of his phone, there was written a missed call from 'Juminten'. "Loohh, is this your name on my phone???" tanyanya.
"I'm the one who came in, Mom! When you ask for help to enter the contact numbers of the children there, I also enter my contact number so that the mother can contact me at any time. Mom doesn't know yet?" ask Mbak Jum who is now astonished.
Mrs.Rukmini shook her head as she blinked her eyes at the housekeeper.
"Panteeesss, I've been calling her to the landline all this time. Yes, if you'll excuse me, ma'am. In the kitchen again nanggung." said Mbak Jum while struggling to leave his mistress who stupefied.
Oia...kok I became dumbass anyway because of Juminten?! Iisshhh.I'll have to worry about Rizzi's betrothal to the kids.
Mrs.Rukmini immediately opened the chat feature and typed the SOS signal in the group roomchat called 'GENK RS' it.
