''Gendis.'' call the man in a soft-sounding tone of voice, he is already standing right behind Gendis' back. He hid a bouquet of roses behind his back. Gendis turned her body, turning towards the source of the sound coming from. Gendis stared at the man who was standing in a firm position. The guy who was his college friend first. Gendis stared in shock at the presence of a figure he had not seen for a long time.
''Arkan?'' sahut Gendis with a smiley face knot while trying to hide his surprise.
''Yes. You still know me. Thank goodness, said Arkan smiling sumringah. Gendis looked at the man in front of her with a little misbehavior. Arkan is the man who once promised to meet Gendis after he was successful. At that time Gendis only answered yes, yes, without knowing what Arkan really meant. And Gendis considered that Arkan at that time was just a joke. Now Arkan actually met Gendis with office clothes and a suit that looks very fitting on his body. Arkan looks so neat and handsome. But the good looks of Arkan still lose the same good looks Gavin who always dressed untidy and what is.
''Brothers, you go in first, yes. Play in it. Brother wants to chat first with friends Brother.'' said Gendis to the orphanage children who amounted to about 15 people.
''Yes, sister.'' replied the orphanage child simultaneously. After that they went into the house.
Gendis took her steps towards a wooden bench in the courtyard of the parlour. Then he dropped his ass there. Arkan followed in Gendis' footsteps, still standing with his hands still hidden behind his back.
''How are you doing? I can't believe you still remember me. It's been three years you know.'' said Gendis opened the conversation. Gendis slightly looked up at Arkan who was still standing. Then Arkan sat on the same bench keeping his distance.
''Alhamdulillah, I am good and healthy. You how are you? You are the only woman I have ever remembered. You always make me excited to pursue my dreams. Hehe ... Sorry, for three years I fought hard to be a successful person. In accordance with the promise I used to.'' said Arkan a little groggy while chuckling little.
''Alhamdulillah, I have also been fine all this time.'' replied Gendis briefly as she lowered her head. Suddenly his heart became a nelangsa hearing Arkan's confession.
''Thankful. You're still alone, aren't you? Emm .... I mean, ah ... Maybe you understand what I mean.'' Arkan spoke a little groggy and misbehaved.
Gendis did not answer anymore, she just nodded small with a discordant smile.
''This, for you.'' Arkan stuck out a bouquet of roses right in front of Gendis.
''What is this, Arkan?'' asked Gendis with narrowed eyes.
''This is for you. Accept it Gendis. Gendis, before I leave here, I have already steadied my heart, I want to propose to you. Honestly, I love u Gendis. I mean it, '' cried Arkan steady with a focused gaze staring at Gendis, he hoped that Gendis would receive it as he hoped.
Gendis is confused as to what to answer and behave how. Honestly, he was still not ready to answer right now. It felt like Arkan was so sudden. Whereas actually during this week Gendis was close to someone. Someone who managed to make him always smile lately. That man is Gavin.
''Arkan, um ... I don't seem to be able to answer right now. I need time to pray istikharah first. Your presence is so sudden, I still need to think about and solidify my heart.'' Gendis said honestly.
''Alright. I will always be patient waiting for you. Take this flower first.'' Arkan took a deep breath. Gendis nodded, then took the flower with a smile. After all, he must appreciate a man who has come all the way just to meet him.
Without Gendis noticing, someone was staring at her from the gate. The man looked at Gendis who was sitting with a man, while receiving a bouquet of flowers with a knotty smile.
Gavin felt heartbroken seeing the closeness between Gendis and another man. He stood glued to the gate with both hands holding two large crackles. Inside the crackle there are snacks and snacks for the children of the home. Gavin regularly brings children to snack homes.
Gavin did not get in, he returned to the car, upon arrival in the car, Gavin slammed the white crackle on the back of the car seat.

In a different place, in a village.
A woman was screaming hysterically because of the pain she was suffering. Hani was in a room with such apprehensive conditions. During these few months, he fell ill suddenly without knowing why. His body, once beautiful and ideal, is now so thin. Her stomach was enlarged without knowing what her illness was. Various kinds of efforts, treatment has been done. But still, Hani never recovered. Even the strange disease in his pain is getting worse.
Gentala sat at the end of her bed with tears in her pelupuk. He could not bear to see the mother who kept screaming in pain. Her chest feels so tight.
''Master, sorry, I don't seem to know anymore to find someone who can treat Mama Tuan where. Everything we have tried, from treatment to doctors, to smart people, but the results remain nil.'' said a man who was about forty-five years old. The man was the one who worked in the house of Gentala and the one who trusted Gentala to take care of the new gardens in his Mama bought in the village.
''I have to how else, Mr. Kardi.'' said Gentala desperate. His voice sounded hoarse. Yes, crying in silence.
Mr. Kardi shook his head weakly. He also did not know what else to do to help cure his mistress' strange illness.
''Adduhhhh .... Help u! It hurts! It hurts.''
''I want to die ... Huhuhuhu ..'' Hani racau in a soft voice while holding his large belly. The stomach is like being pregnant at seven months of age.
Gentala was getting hurt hearing the moans of the mother.
''Uncle, Bagas. Will Uncle Bagas accept me if I visit his house. Looks like I'll have to tell her about Mama's situation. I really don't know who to share my problems with. After all, Uncle Bagas is Mama's Big Brother Gentala said in his heart.
But, suddenly Mr. Kardi made a sound again.
''Sir, I'm sorry if I was presumptuous. Actually all this time my assumption has long been lodged in the mind. Em.... Look, what before her Mama, you ever did rough with the villagers? I mean like this, I'm afraid Mama Tuan someone willfully send this disease. Understandably local residents are still very thick with the sciences that I do not understand as well, because I have also been living in the city for a long time. They may have used black magic to avenge the pain of Mrs Hani.'', explained Mr. Kardi a little carefully.
Gentala was silent trying to digest the words of Mr. Kardi, and tried to remember anything that his mother had done before falling sick first.
Seriate.
Aksa and Mayang we skip first in this part huh.
Some people know no, Hani why?
