When it was Rifki and Santi's turn, they started walking slowly on the bridge. Suddenly the bridge shook. Santi was used to it, he was not afraid.
But Rifki at this time he was scared, his heart was pounding, not because it was close to Santi but because he was afraid the bridge collapsed.
"Santi, help me!, how is this?, I'm afraid." Shouting Rifki.
"It is fear, you are weak. Aja burly body, uh know it does not have the guts" replied Santi scoffed at the state of the ketar-ketir.
"I want to go back again" said Rifki.
"Song you know, this is already in the middle" replied Santi telling.
"Here I help" Santi felt pity, rarely Rifki asked her for help.
Santi also holds Rifki's hand firmly, Rifki's roots are not carried away. Such circumstances want it to feel like they happen when not in such circumstances. But yak is already. They finally crossed the river.
. . . .
After crossing the river they continue to walk down the existing path.
Now it is seen, behind the big trees there are many settlements. Santi's house is close by.
The houses there are not at all luxurious, even if Mr. Thunder said the house there is not worth living in. The house was very minimal, covered by bamboo.
They continued to walk through the houses there.
"Excuse me ma'am" Santi said.
"Santi?, Yes alloh Santi you've come home, who is this?" Asked one of the residents there who was sweeping the courtyard.
"I am Santi's future father-in-law" said Mr. Guntur.
"Yak Alhamdulillah like that ma'am" replied Santi.
"I'm sorry ma'am" continued Santi.
"Yes, yes please" replied the mother.
Then they continued their journey. After Santi left, the mother immediately brought the news that Santi would marry a rich man to the people there. And at that time people were talking about Santi, Santi became a byword there. But it is not the ugliness of Santi that is talked about but they are amazed that Santi will marry a rich man.
In the talk that glorifies and boasts Santi, there is someone who compares Santi to Mayang. Santi and Mayang are like heaven and earth, they said. The truth is like that. And the conversation between comparing Mayang and Santi became a crowded conversation there.
Santi heard the mother he could only say in his heart that his fate was not as lucky as all of them had said. Even getting married to a rich man was a difficult choice for her because even though there was already a seed of love in her for the man, her hatred was still very deep. It's just that he tried to hold it.
Then they continued their journey. Until they get to one of the houses that yak like a house in general there. It looks like Santi's house. The house is not too big but if the occupants are only Santi's mother and father then Rifki still fit to live there.

Neighbors are that, if there are people who are lucky the same people whose lives are less always compared. If there is a new rumor that is still anget beuh immediately spread quickly to the next village. Who is that Mayang?.
