Rainbow At The End of Longing

73. The Arrival of Arya and Winna

This weekend I, Mas Awan, Keinan, and Angkasa stayed at my mother's house. All right, Hamzah said that there was something very important that he wanted to talk to all of us about.

That evening, after dinner together, Hamzah gathered us all on the living room couch to talk about the important things Hamzah wanted to tell us.

"So, what's up, Ham? What important thing do you want to talk to all of us about?" ask mom to start the conversation.

"Mother, Brother Shofi, Brother Awan, I will soon marry Ayesha. In the near future I will also apply for Ayesha officially," said Hamzah answered the mother's question and told us about her intentions.

"Thank God, thank God" said my gratitude, Mas Awan, and mother simultaneously.

The three of us were happy to hear about the good news delivered by Hamzah. Hamzah was also seen exhaling a sigh of relief while smiling happily to see the reaction of the three of us.

"Thank God, Ham. I'm happy because you finally have established your heart also after a long time," said happy mother.

"Yes, Deck. After a long time you have finally settled also to marry Ayesha and formalize the relationship between the two of you. Brother is also happy, Ham," I said with a happy smile as well.

"Yes, Mom, Brother. After everything that's happened lately, I finally realized that I'm very afraid of losing Ayesha. I want to always be on Ayesha's side and be able to protect Ayesha at all times. I love Ayesha, Mom, Brother. And I don't want anything bad to happen to Ayesha anymore. Especially like what happened yesterday" Hamzah said.

"Good, Ham. Brother is very supportive of your good intentions. And also, hopefully after you and Ayesha officially get married later, then Chika has really stepped back and is not trying to keep separating the two of you in such devious ways as yesterday again," say Mas Awan too.

"That was also my initial consideration, brother. Chika was already really reckless and outrageous. If only with my rejection speech still can not stop Chika, hopefully after I married Ayesha later then Chika can really stop and not keep chasing me again, let alone trying to separate me and Yesha again" Hamzah replied.

"Hopefully so, Ham, please" said the mother.

"Yes, Ham. Hopefully after this Chika will be completely aware and stop chasing you again" I said as well.

"Yes, Mom, Brother. Aamiin," Hamzah replied.

"So when is the plan you want to take us to Ayesha's house and propose to Ayesha officially, Ham?" ask mom later.

"Hamzah's plan is next week, Ma'am, sister. Yesterday Om Yas and Kak Dirga also ordered, no need to be too busy and bring a lot of stuff. It's simple that the important things can go well and smoothly" replied Hamzah.

"But even so we will still bring the fruits of our hands, Ham. Cook yes we want to come with empty hands" said the mother.

"Who, Ma. We'll keep dong. But naturally, there is no need to be too fancy. I also bought a ring for Ayesha yesterday" said Hamzah.

"Thank God that's it, Ham," said the mother.

"okay, Ham. Next week we accompany you to come to Ayesha's house and propose to Ayesha. If there's something we can help you with, you don't hesitate to say yes, Ham," said Mas Awan.

"Yes, Brother. Thanks you earlier. Oh yes, tomorrow after returning home from work I will also come to my sister's house to meet Om Surya and Aunt Wulan. Tell about this news to the two of them all ask for help to Om Surya and Aunt Wulan to participate in the application event later too," Hamzah said.

"Yes, Ham. Later let brother tell Papa and Mama too, let them both not be surprised when you come later," I reply.

"Yes, Brother. Thanks" said Hamzah.

Next day.

Around ten in the morning, all of a sudden we were surprised by the arrival of both Bayu and Chika's parents, Mr. Arya and Bu Winna. Even Bu Winna was also immediately angry when she arrived at the mother's house.

Me and Mas Awan immediately rushed to get out of the room as soon as they heard a loud scream from outside. It turned out that his mother and Hamzah had also rushed to get out of the house immediately. Me and Mas Awan then also followed the steps of mother and Hamzah to get out of the house.

And so surprised we found the presence of Mr. Arya and Mr. Winna on the porch of the mother's house.

"Sir Arya, Miss Winna. What's the matter?" I asked confused and surprised.

"Mother Aminah, our arrival---"

"Shophi! Hamze! You two have really gone too far" said Winna, cutting off her husband's own words to explain what they meant.

Me and Hamzah sorted our eyebrows together, as did Mas Awan and mother. We were all confused by the meaning of Bu Winna's words earlier.

"Mom, calm down, Ma'am," said Mr. Arya, embracing Bu Winna's arms, trying to calm his visibly emotional wife.

"I'm sorry, but what did Miss Winna mean?" ask the confused mother.

"Yes, Mom, what did Bu Winna mean? Me and Brother Shofi went too far why, Mom?" ask Hamzah too.

"The two of you have Bayu and Chika arrested by the police. Both of my children are currently being held at the police station. Why are you two doing that to Bayu and Chika?" ma'am Winna replied still with her emotions.

Ah, it turns out that it was because of that problem. We finally understood why suddenly Mr. Arya and Bu Winna came here even with such anger. Hamzah then directly advanced forward, trying to explain.

"Bu Winna, I'm sorry, but it's not us that's outrageous. It is precisely Kak Bayu and Chika themselves who have done very evil and outrageous things, Mom. Kak Bayu and Chika's actions include criminal acts. So it should be if they both account for all their bad deeds to the authorities" said Hamzah.

"What is evil and outrageous? Bayu and Chika are just trying to fight for their love. Then where's the fault of the two of them?" ms Winna's question still doesn't go through.

This time I'm going forward. Mas Awan held my arm and tried to stop me. But I managed to convince my husband with a smile and a nod of my head. Finally Mas Awan also allowed me to advance, following Hamzah at this time.

"Mom, fighting for love is not wrong. But when it comes to endangering the lives and safety of others, that is very untrue, Mom. Bayu had already caused Mas Awan to such an accident. Chika has also carried out the kidnapping and attempted rape of Ayesha. Both of their actions are included in the criminal act, ma'am. So it is only natural that they both have to account for all their actions legally," I said, explaining to my former mother-in-law.

This time, Winna was silent. He seemed to have realized that my words were true.

"Shofi, Hamzah, I'm sorry that we suddenly arrived without prior notice. Sorry also if my wife was angry with you both. We just feel very surprised and still can not accept because our two children were suddenly detained by the police like this" Mr. Arya said later, apologizing and explaining to us.

"It's okay, Mr. Arya. We can understand how you and your mom are feeling right now. But as Hamzah and Shofi said earlier, Bayu and Chika's actions have been included in the criminal act, so it should be if they both account for all their actions legally as well," this time it was my mother who answered the words of my former father-in-law.

"But can't Hamzah and Shofi help us plead with the police to ease the sentence for Bayu and Chika?" asked Mr. Arya, pleading.

"Sorry sir, it's not that we don't want to. But the police also have their own rules. The police will also conduct a thorough investigation into everything that has happened. So let everything go according to the rules of the police. And for the punishment issue for Kak Bayu and Chika, let it also be a decision from the court later, sir," Hamzah replied.

Mr. Arya sneaked it out slowly. It must have felt heavy for him. Because after all, everything I, my mother, and Hamzah have said is true. Miss Winna suddenly started crying.

"Please, Shofi, Hamzah. Please, both of you, please take your charges against Bayu and Chika. Have pity mother. How could you let those two children be detained by the police like this? Huhuhuuu," said Bu Winna in tears.

"Mother, please forgive us. It's not that we don't want to help mom. But the police investigation process cannot be stopped. So let everything go according to the procedure that applies yes, ma'am. And again, the claim against Chika is not Hamzah who filed, but from the Ayesha family. So we can't help anything" I said.

"Father, mother, we understand very well how the concerns of the father and mother are at this time. But in any case Bayu and Chika still have to account for all the bad deeds they both did yesterday. So let them both receive the appropriate punishment for the deeds they both have done. Hopefully that way, they can both take lessons and will not repeat all their bad deeds like yesterday" said the mother.

Mr. Arya and Mr. Winna looked silent. They could neither deny nor defend again. They both seem to realize that their two children were indeed proven guilty and must account for all their bad deeds yesterday legally.
