"We feel bad, don't we, brother? Why does my heart hurt when I see Bang Raditya's mother crying like that?" ask Aminah. "But I'm relieved, the match is off. I feel happy to be free with my future, but I'm also afraid, the curse of her mother Bang...."
"Stt, Na'udzubillah himindhalik. Everything's gonna be okay, we leave everything to God, okay? Importantly, you are free from that matchmaking" said Laila.
"My heart hurts.." neither did Aminah continue her talk. Raditya suddenly came by braking his car until the sound of arguing in his tires.
Apparently, if Raditya was very panicked, he heard Laila and Aminah coming to his house from Leah. Leah apparently did not know that Aminah hid her visit to Raditya's house.
"Why did you come here? You're not papa, are you? Ahh, want to hug but not mahram, want to hold hands also so I'm not as sweet as this, but you're not papa, right?" Raditya was very agitated.
"Haha, I'm a strong woman. So, don't worry about me, if you want to hug, just hug the pole. Think of it as me," said Aminah spirit.
His mother suddenly came out and immediately spread her palm to Raditya's cheek so hard that it made its stamp.
"Astaghfirullah hal'adzim!" aminah and Laila shouted in shock.
"Relief!" yell Raditya's father.
Instead of evading, Raditya resigned when his mother beat him using a clothes hanger. Just like when he was a child he was often hit like that. Raditya also asked everyone, both Aminah and her father, not to stop his mother's actions. Then, his mother fainted, and was brought in again by Rasid.
"Well Dit?"
The tears of Aminah are visible. However, Raditya replied with a smile. His mother had just said that Rasid's match was failed by Laila and her father. And Raditya thanks for that.
"Alhamdulillah, Wasgratimillah. I'm happy because this match is off. But, I am also sad that you two saw me in this state. Please, can you guys go home first? I'll solve my own problems" Raditya softly said, grimacing withholding pain in his back and hands.
Aminah and Laila said again, they went home with their lips closed without a word coming out of their mouths. On the way home, Aminah got a message from Rasid.
[Are you okay?]
Aminah ignored the message. Rasid sent a message back.
[Please, this time reply to my message. I'm worried about you!]
It doesn't change the feelings of Aminah. He did not open it this time. His feelings were being chaotic, sad, happy, restless and confused into one. Perhaps, because he did not respond to the message, Rasid called Aminah who was still in the taxi.
"What else?" aminah asked a little annoyed.
"You're angry with me? How, the tone of speech is that?" ask Rasid back.
"I'm not papa, don't overdo it. Better, we are no longer in this relationship, I don't want any misunderstanding between me and Bang Raditya. Assallamu'alaikum." Aminah picked up the phone.
Aminah believed in the destiny of God, she took a deep breath, then took a seryghfar and continued to mention the name of the Creator. Hoping if he no longer thinks about the match, then continue life like other teenagers.
"I could be an old man like this. Forget all this, and play with my three cute nieces," racoed Aminah tightened her cheeks.
"You are more experienced than waiting for love. Haha, matus nuwun temp.." joked Aminah.
There is nothing to discuss anymore, Aminah will focus on her education and fly to Singapore soon. The story of Laila and Raihan who were separated for three years greatly inspired him. Not only their story, there is also the story of Aisyah who used to be separated from Rifky for almost nine months, finally able to reunite. The soul mate, death and sustenance of God who governs and determines, man can only plan and strive.

Two months passed, Raditya and Aminah's relationship was still going as usual. The two of them communicate with each other and meet when they have each other's interests. Raditya also still lives at home with Joseph and the other brothers, because his mother is still stubbornly not respecting their relationship.
For Raditya and Aminah, the blessing of the parents is very important, while waiting for Aminah to graduate school, they are also still trying to melt the heart of her mother. Not that they just gave up, even more annoying, Rasid, the brother of Raditya also still trying to pursue the love of Aminah.
Of course for Aminah, Raditya is worth fighting for. Knowing the story of Nadia, the first love of Raditya was also captured by Rasid, Aminah believes that Rasid is not as good and not as noble as Raditya.
Turn to Joseph's story at school. His friendship with Fatur and Cindy is also very close. Now, Falih returns to Japan because of the Rose, her sister is sick and she has to accompany her because Fatim and Akbar are on a business trip out of the City. While Hamdan, he was still at home in his old school, because he was not allowed to transfer schools by Gu.
_-_-_
The sun was so hot that afternoon, there were school activities before the semester test at Joseph's school. Inter-class competitions are also held for a week. Coincidentally that afternoon, there was a basketball game for the girls. Cindy took part in the race.fatur and Yusuf watched the match, as Cindy and her team represented her class.
"Haha, they are like catfish yes...given one ball, immediately gather in one place!" exclaim Fatur while sucking sweet iced tea in a plastic bag.
"You are too, right? Can't remember yesterday, right? At badminton, Candra was a student from the neighboring class.." Joseph's expression was cut.
"Hush! Don't unload disgrace, dong. You're my friend, not Candra's handsome ass," cut Fatur, talking to her pretty lips.
When looking at the race, Joseph accidentally saw if there was a red stain on the back of Cindy. Not pretentious or how, Joseph immediately guessed if it was a bloodstain of his menstruation. Yusuf began to be uncomfortable with the other students and students who seemed to talk and laugh at his girlfriend. Yusuf walked up to the jury, asking the jury to stop the match for a while.
"Haha, pretty, anyway. But baby, slovenly!"
"Well, what a disgust. Where the blood is so thick again!"
"If I were him, I'd be ashamed and not want to go to school anymore,"
"Wuih, curious how to wear the pads…."
Another hissing is also widely hurled by students there. The confused Cindy was even more confused. Until finally Jihan realized, if the children laughed at her because of blood stains on Cindy's heart. As he approached Cindy, Yusuf approached Cindy and took off his jacket, tied around Cindy's hip.
"Uh, so sweet. Why must he, anyway? I also want to." said one of the race participants.
"What's wrong?" cindy was confused.
"You come with me first, there are things you should know" Joseph replied with a friendly smile.
Not out of love or liking, Joseph did it because it was not something to be laughed at. While walking and pulling the sleeves of the jacket tied around Cindy's waist. Joseph looks so bright at his school that makes Candra hate him even more. What a GR Cindy, hahaha.
