My Ribs

A Year Ago

Mama Chintania went into her room. His feet stepped towards a small safe inside his wardrobe. Slowly pressing the safe password, after the safe opened, the middle-aged woman took out a jewelry box.

In the jewelry box there is a diamond ring and also a white rope bracelet that has the symbol 'Yang'. Mama Nia's memory goes back to the events of one year ago, where she and Chintania went on vacation on a small island.

One year ago...

That morning, Chintania and her mother walked to the beach, they were joking and looked very happy. Until the day after noon Chintania returned to the villa they rented and then returned to the beach, "Honey, where are you going?"mama asked Nia when she saw Chintania wearing knee-length pants and long sleeves, walking towards the beach.

"I'd like to ride the Speedboat, ma'am, "sahut Chintania continues to step towards the beach where the Speedboat is parked.

"The baby's less friendly, baby! Don't ride the Speedboat!"prevent mama Nia who saw the waves that day was rather large and unfriendly if to the sea riding the Speedboat.

"Just for a second, ma! It's just near here, not far away! Tomorrow we're home, and I don't know when else can take a vacation and ride the Speedboat, "sahut Chintania who wants to spend his vacation with all the excitement releases saturation because of his activities in the city.

"But, baby.."

"Just for a second, ma!"chintania shouted cutting off her mother's words, running towards the Speedboat.

Chintania began to drive the Speedboat he was riding, no matter the waves were getting bigger. Suddenly the wind blew strong, the sky darkened and soon it rained down heavily. Mama Nia was forced to run away from the beach to shelter. The middle-aged woman seemed agitatedly gazing towards the sea, hoping that her mere puppet princess would appear immediately and run towards him.

"It! Mr. Diman, how is this? Nia is still at sea. Why hasn't Nia come back yet?"ask the middle-aged woman to Mr. Diman. Mr. Diman is a man who has worked for many years in the Nia mama family.

"Madam, there's no way we're looking for Non Nia in this kind of weather. We can't find Non Nia by ourselves. Calm madam! I will contact the guard of this island," said Mr. Diman, then directly contact the person guarding the island in order to find Chintania.

The rain continued to fall overtime as if unwilling to stop. Mama Nia was getting anxious thinking about her child. Sit for a while, stand up for a while, pacing back and forth. The middle-aged woman was really agitated, worried, scared, and anxious becoming one.

While the island guards did not dare to go down to the sea in such bad weather conditions at that time. He did not want to risk his life and the lives of his comrades just to look for a girl. The risk is great if you go down to the sea with bad weather like now.

Mama Nia is getting more agitated, after her husband died two years ago, only Chintania has her. Only Chintania makes him still have the spirit to live life. But now, he did not know how his only child was.

Chintania is a stubborn girl and a hobby of riding a motor sport. His appearance was almost like a guy, wearing jeans, and a t-shirt coated in a leather jacket, with boots. Only her long hair still showed her feminine side.

Rain continued to fall on the island, up to three hours. In the afternoon after the rain subsided the island guards also mobilized all their personnel to search for Chintania. The waves were not too big as before, so they began to look for the existence of Chintania.

By nightfall, Chintania had not yet been found. The coast guard and his associates surrendered to search for Chintania. But Mama Chintania begs them to find her daughter.

"Please find a princess, me! I beg! I will pay you a heavy fee. She was all I had in this world after my husband died. I beg!"pinta mama Nia with tears kneeling in front of the island guard and his colleagues to make Mr. Diman feel unbearable.

"Mrs wake up, don't be like this!"said Mr. Diman while trying to help Mama Nia to wake up. The old man really could not bear to see his master like that. Over the years of working for Nia's mother's family, the woman's family has been very kind to her family. Always give free treatment to the family of Mr. Diman.

Even when Mr. Siman's son had a severe accident and cost a lot for surgery and treatment, nia's mother's family put Mr. Siman's son in their hospital and did not charge him any serupiah fees from Mr. Diman.

The island guard and his companions finally felt unbearable to see Nia's mother who continued to kneel and cry in front of them. Incidentally also the weather is more conducive to finding Chintania, although it is night, the sky looks bright with the light of the moon and stars scattered. The waves also looked calmer so they decided to go back to look for Chintania.

At midnight, the lifeguard and his companions returned to the beach. Impatiently, Mama Nia ran to the beach to the people who helped her find her only child.

"Madam, we found two women. One is dead and the other is alive" said the island's guard.

That very night, Chintania was buried on the island. Mr. Diman drove his employer to the villa they rented until passing some people who were talking.

"You know what, the woman we found with the broken face was awake. And then, she couldn't remember herself,"

"Woman is amnesia? That's too bad,"

"Yes, and the doctor injected sleeping pills because the woman kept moaning in pain from her injuries,"

"What a pity, his face is broken, amnesia, too,"

That was a piece of conversation of some men who were looking for Chintania at sea, until Mama Nia stopped her steps. Mama Nia recalled the woman with the face damaged by the burns found with her daughter earlier. Hearing the woman's amnesia, suddenly a crazy idea sprang up in Nia's head.

"Sir Diman, please take me to the place where the woman whose broken face is being treated" said Nia's mother. And without asking anything, Mr. Diman also brought Mama Nia to a place that wanted the middle-aged woman.

That same night, Mama Nia brought the woman whose face was damaged to the country of ginseng, South Korea. From that very night, Mama Nia made the woman whose face was damaged as Chintania by operating on the face of the woman like Chintania.

Mama Nia asked Mr. Diman to keep a secret about Chintania's death and also about the woman who was made Nia's mother as Chintania. Until this year, the woman who is not known to Mama Nia's identity only knows if she is the biological child of Mama Nia who suffered amnesia due to an accident.

Mama Nia also realized from her memory about the incident a year ago when her phone rang. Mama Nia immediately received the voice call when she saw who contacted her.

"Hello, Sir!"greet mama Nia to the caller.

"Hello, Son. How, does your daughter agree with this matchmaking?"ask the caller.

"Yes, Sir. My daughter has agreed, "sohut mama Nia.

"Thank God. We'll meet at a restaurant near your hospital, okay?"haggle the caller.

"Yes, sir,"well mama Nia then the call was terminated.

Mama Nia looked back at the diamond ring and the white rope bracelet with 'Yang' in her hand. The two belong to the woman he now calls Chintania.
