Sayup-sayup heard the sound of the morning adhan reverberating from the minaret of the mosque. Accompanied by the sweet chirping of birds and the roar of the welcoming wind. Rival awakens. Her bitter eyes stared at the ceiling of the room. After feeling that his consciousness had accumulated, He turned his head next to him, there was Mely who was still sleeping soundly, with one hand holding his arm Rival.
A moment Rival smiled looking at Mely's shady face while sleeping. When you sleep like this, Mely looks adorable. Rival wanted to wake his wife and ask her to pray. But, he broke his intention. Given Mely's cold attitude towards him last night.
Rival has yet to understand the true character of Mely. That woman is very quickly changing. Clearly, his character describes Mely as stubborn, selfish and too following what he feels without thinking about the effects of his actions.
With a heavy sigh, Rival slowly tried to take off Mely's hand that was holding her hand. But the hand was so hard to take off, that Rival let go a little strongly.
Feeling that her body was touching, Mely opened her eyes to find her husband holding her hand. The eyes of the two met, Rival groggy and at the same time feel afraid, if Mely will be angry. So Rival reflex took off Mely's hand.
"Aaakuu, just wanted to take your hand off my hand." Rival said with a bit of nervousness. Mely did not answer Rival's words. He changed his posture so he lay down and stared at the ceiling of the room.
"Do you want to pray together?" asked Rival gently. I hope he doesn't have Mely's tantrums.
Sure enough, Mely did not comment on Rival's remarks. Rival finally got out of bed. Go to the bathroom, clean her body. After changing clothes for prayer, Rival came out of the dressing room.
He looked towards Mely who remained a lying gangster in bed.
"Aren't you going to pray?" ask with a smile. Mely looked towards Rival, but the woman was silent. Feeling neglected, Rival came out of the room walking towards the prayer room. He wanted to go to the mosque. But, because it's too late. So he prays at home.
Arriving at the prayer room, Rival saw Pak Ali was performing prayers. Rival also performs prayers. When he left that place. Ali called him.
"There's something serious I want to say. We're talking now in Dad's office." Said the old man.
Hearing Mr. Ali's words, there was a little bit of misgivings and unpleasantness in Rival's heart. He thinks Mr. Ali will talk about his relationship with Mely.
"Sit down." Mr. Ali thrust a file in front of Rival, who is now sitting on the sofa in the workspace Pak Ali. A moment Rival highlighted Pak Ali's work room. Because He had been in the house for four months, this time He entered this room.
Rival then opened the document, his eyes glared fully read the contents of the writing on the paper. His facial expression changed drastically in astonishment. Mr. Ali who saw Rival's expression was made happy, he thought Rival was very happy with the contents of the letter he read. In fact, Rival was currently in disbelief with what he was reading. He disagreed with the letter he was reading.
"Why is this Dad?" Rival asked with a slight nervousness. He looked at Mr. Ali with a confused look.
"According to the letter. That's the reality." Said Mr. Ali with a sigh.
"It's impossible, where maybe all the assets you have are given to me. I can't take this." Rival put the file back in front of Mr. Ali with a slightly trembling hand. His shocked face was clearly visible on his white and handsome face.
"Why is it impossible. This is proof that I'm passing it to you." Mr. Ali smiled, really he was very moved to see the figure of this child. Who grew up with good character. Pak Ali's eyes glazed over at Rival who was still loyal with his shocked face.
"But I'm not Dad's heir. There's Mely's Dad's daughter." Rival said in confusion. This is really a strange occurrence. Others give up all their possessions to unknown people.
"No Dad, it can't be like this. This is unfair to Mely. Why does Dad trust me so much. Allowed to stay and given me a job, I'm so grateful." Say Rival with teary eyes. He was actually happy, Mr. Ali believed in him so much. But that kind-hearted Rival. Where to take the opportunity, from Pak Ali's good attitude to him.
"Why not fair, after all Mely also still feels all the facilities and wealth that exist. Unless you want to remarry and divorce Him." Said Mr. Ali in a flat tone.
Rival was stunned to hear Mr. Ali's words. How could He possibly do that, his treasure has been handed over to him all.
"Sorry Dad, I can't accept this. Let me be your employee at the office. Even my ordinary staff is no problem. It doesn't have to be like the job I'm holding right now." Rival really felt the incident this morning as a terafi spot of his heart. He was really surprised by the truth this morning.
Mr. Ali just kept quiet and stared fixedly at Rival's face. He wanted to tell her the truth, that Rival was his missing son. But, Mr. Ali is afraid. Rival doesn't believe him. He was so afraid of losing his son.
"If there's nothing more to discuss. Excuse me, Daddy. I need to get to the office quickly. Because this morning there's a meeting." Rival said, still trying to calm his surprised self. His heart is still beating unbecoming.
Rival goes into Mely's room and finds the woman combing her hair and seems to be leaving.
Mely did not glance towards the Rival who was coming at her. Mely's attitude suddenly changed. Making Rival draw the conclusion that Mely became indifferent to him. Because Mely already knew that all the property of Mr. Ali bequeathed to him.
"Is Adek leaving so early?" rival asked very carefully, opening up a conversation between the two. Rival noticed Mely's reflection in the mirror. So is he with himself. Now standing behind Mely.
"Yes." Yeah." Mely stopped combing her hair. He tidied up his clothes and got up from his seat. When he wants to pull the door handle. Rival held his left arm.
"There's something we need to talk about. Looks like Adek changed because of that." Mely twisted her neck, in order to be able to stare at Rival's unsettled face.
"Did he know my mood was broken because I found a picture of his wife in his backpack?" muttered Mely, the look in her eyes looked seriously at Rival.
"I have no time, my guidance counselor asked me to come to her house before seven o'clock. Someone has to sign my supervisor's lecturer "Say Mely said honestly. He did want to go to the Lecturer's house. His home is far away. The journey can be over an hour.
He must meet today with his Lecturer. If Mely wants a quick hearing. Because the Lecturer's gonna be out of town for a week.
"Then it'll be noon, brother to your college. We'll have lunch together." Rival said with a bad feeling. He was convinced that Mely had changed, because her father had left her property to him.
"can't. I'm busy later." Mely brushed off Rival's hand. He came out of the room walking quickly towards the garage. She ignored her mother who called her for breakfast.
