My girlfriend, my daughter-in-law (Mantu becomes sister-in-law)

125. Night of year

Kimi ga inai to hontou ni taututsu da ne

When you're not around, I get very bored

Samishii to ieba warawareteshimau

But when I say lonely, you smile at me

Nokosareta mono nandomo tashikameru

I kept making sure what was left

Kieru koto naku

Which shine brightly and will never fade

Ameagari no sora no you na kokoro ga hareru youna

Like the sky after the rain has subsided, like a bright heart

Kimi no egao wo oboete iru omoide shite egao ni naru

I remember your smile and it became a memorable one

Kitto futari wa ano hi no mama mujakina kodomo

We must still be like that day, still like a plain little boy

Meguru kisetsu wo kakenukete iku afamazore no ashita wo

Passing through the various seasons that pass and seeing tomorrow each

The hospital corridor where he was standing was currently the destination for his foot adventure. She sits in the wrong seat outside the patient's room. Inside the room was too crowded, Alam's parents had arrived since last night.

The weather is still cold by noon. Ina grabbed her jacket and covered it in a shop not far from the hospital. A rod that characterizes Naruto's country. Ina looked closely, although frozen, the tree still looked beautiful. He grabbed his phone and took a picture of it to be immortalized onto the sosmed.

His steps stopped to see a woman praying in front of a tree. Her sense of smell swished, before long she remembered until now not fluent in Japanese. Ina tries to ignore the free spectacle in front of her even though the actual sense of kepo is getting higher. Luckily the shop owner speaks English. It makes it hard for Ina to communicate.

"what did that woman do? (what did the woman do?)" ask Ina at the store.

"His son died crashing into that tree (His son died hitting that tree?)"

"What a pity (What a pity)." He looked at Iba at the woman.

Ina let out a long sigh one of her coins fell down. Coins he earned while visiting a bazaar in Japan. He said it was a lucky coin. Where by throwing it, the request will be immediately granted. Between believing in disbelief, he just doesn't feel good about the coin seller.

Ina returns to the hospital, seeing Alam who has been unconscious for almost a week from her long sleep. Ina only let out a small sigh, her eyes turning to the coin she was holding.

"Isn't it the turn of the year night? I'll try it. Good luck."

Sayup-sayup Ina hears the conversation between the doctor and Marni. The 49-year-old woman asked why Nature was not conscious.

"Ronald's brother should have realized. Everything is normal, no problem."

"But why is my child still like this? (But why is my son still like this, doc.)"

"He's just recovering a bit.(He's just a little bit of recovery")" explained the Doctor.

"Darling, you have to be sure Nature is healed. The doctor said that everything is normal just waiting for the conscious." Persuade Bobby who saw his wife was still agitated.

Already one of them was in Tokyo, accompanying their son who never woke up from his long sleep. Yulia was still reluctant to meet besan. Ina had run out of sense to persuade her sister. The hatred in Yulia was ingrained. She just called to ask Ina or Dul to pick up Shasa.

"If this is the attitude of mama mending mama come home with papa to Jakarta. Papa is tired of seeing mama like this, even looking at his own granddaughter using nitip. Is Shasa a thing? which can be pinned here and there. Mama why the hell? They were mom. If you don't like to see Marni it's your business, but respect Bobby. Hasn't the Spencer and Gunawan family been familiar. Don't ruin our parents' friendship just out of sheer vengeance. Istigfar ma!"

"Isn't that right, pa? Mama doesn't want Ina to get too close to the family. Mama..."

"Ma, Ina's got privacy. Ina is not a Gita who can be a bridle mama. Papa knows you have a responsibility to Ina. But not this way either! All this time papa was silent every time he saw the action of mama. Papa realized all this belongs to mama, the company belongs to mama, Papa realized that I am only a daughter-in-law who hitchhiked. But the more here papa also realized that papa's authority as the head of the family is no longer needed."

"Why are you talking about that? Mama never thought that way, papa still mama's husband, the head of the family, Papanya Gita and Opa Shasa. Nothing changes that. But Ina, she's my sister, my responsibility. I am like this for his good too. Papa wants Ina to be bullied again with Marni? Like he used to do to the Gita!"

"Marni's been converted, Ma. Since the incident Alam was shot while escaping from the Police and since then Marni has received the Gita."

"I don't agree with them." Reply Yulia firmly.

Dul just shook his head to see his wife. He only wished to open the door of his wife's heart. The man chose to hitch a break in Rio's apartment. In his bed there were many thoughts he was thinking about. Since the incident of the Gita in Sukasari first they were angry at Nature. But Dul sees the man's sincerity in Gita. Despite their relationship, they are rejected by Yulia and Marni. The involvement of Yulia and Marni who were too involved in her child's household did not make her two children retreat. They are still fighting to maintain their marital status.

While in the hospital, Ina sat alone in a chair in the corridor. Reflections about the state of Nature, guilt and the fear of loss are stirred in his mind.

"Na" A voice broke his reverie.

"Sister Rangga!"

Rangga sat next to his sister. His hand held two cups of the warm drink he bought at the hospital cafe.

"Thank you" replied Ina receiving one of the warm cups of coffee.

"Na, if you're married to Laras, you agree not to?"

"Related? why sudden? You must be making an escape, right! If that's what my brother's aim is I won't agree. The barrel is my best friend brother, I don't want my best friend to be played."

"Na, big brother promised to make Laras happy. Brother will learn to love Laras."

"Sister, marriage is not for trial. Marriage is sacred not for play." Ina protested.

Rangga. He justifies Ina's words, if he continues to follow his heart that Laras is hurt. But Rangga again dismissed the thought, he still considers Laras has a hidden plan on his family.

Evening has come, the seconds of the turn of the year will begin shortly. Ina chose to inhabit Nature in the hospital. Some hospital staff celebrate the new year at the rooftop. The sound of explosions fireworks unpretentious, as well as screams and cheers enliven the turn of the year. Ina looked at the coin she had been holding.

Wondering if the coin was forgiving his request. Or maybe just a trick of the seller.

Ina closed her eyes "Whatever the result, I only asked for one. Please wake him up."

Ina throws a coin and recaptures it. When it opened there was a symbol that Ina did not understand the meaning.

"May this be a good sign."

"Happy new years!" the cheers sounded again.

Suddenly a hand coiled tightly around Ina's waist.
