Early in the morning Rio and Sonya's mom are getting ready to go to Mr. Edward's house. Today is Cecil's wedding day. Rio and Sonya's mom have been invited by Mr. Edward to be the receptionist. So they should come early.

As he was leaving his room, the sound of the phone ringing came from Rio's device in his pants pocket.

Meanwhile, in the residence of Mr. Edward was very crowded by relatives who began to arrive. The mothers want to see the beautiful face of Cecil when described by MUA.

Cecil is currently in his room. Her face was unfinished, but she looked more beautiful than usual.

"Waahhh! Surely later the groom bengong kek cow toothless saw the beauty of Cecil," said one of Cecil's close relatives.

Cecil who got the compliment was embarrassed, his cheeks getting red even without the hue.

"So you can! Cecil's face has been like this for a long time. Brother, don't overdo it!" sahut Cecil pouted.

"Cecil is beautiful even without makeup, so it's natural that you are more beautiful!" One of the distant brothers chimed in.

They pinched Cecil who was being treated by a shaman. Cecil is indeed beautiful, not only face but also heart. The lack is only a spoiled nature that has been acute, but the deficiency is the excess in the eyes of the people of Adam.

Mama Ratna went into Cecil's room after she was finished by another MUA officer.

"It's over?" mama Ratna asked as soon as she walked into her only daughter's room.

"Be a little later, Brother Ratna. Just relax!" said his cousin.

"Yes, change clothes soon! Ratna's mother can see her son now, please," said makeup artist who put on Cecil's makeup.

How surprised the mother was when she saw her son looked so beautiful. So shocked, mama Ratna to gawk.

"Awas Tan, there's a fly passing by!" shouted the distant brother while holding back his laughter.

Hearing such a voice, mama Ratna reflexively clenched her mouth.

"Your sins are Leli! Your parents worked" said Mama Ratna's cousin.

"Already! Now we change your clothes. Later I trim the make up song on your face," said the perias suddenly so surprising those who are cool with laughter.

Hearing Cecil who wanted to change clothes, they all came out of the room.

Cecil uses a modern ivory white kebaya combined with batik cloth. Her hair was carried with jasmine flowers as a decoration.

This time Cecil's appearance made anyone who saw him amazed. Beauty radiated from within his heart, making his face cool to the eye. His two brothers could not blink to look at their only sister.

An hour later...

Mr. Edward seemed agitated because Devan and his family were not present. The headman had already come waiting inside.

Mr. Edward was pacing in front of the main door. He was also looking for Rio's whereabouts. Frans and Dolly are no less anxious. If Devan does not come, then the good name of Mr. Edward and his family is destroyed.

"Mrs Sonya, where's Rio? Why isn't it visible at this hour?" leaning sir Edward on Rio's mother.

"I don't know exactly where, just the last few days..." Sonya's mother stopped her words, doubt enveloped her mind.

"Why the last few days, ma'am?" asked Mr. Edward impatiently, he continued to approach the retired administrative officer at his school.

"He often went out and came home late. It's like we don't live in the same house. Want to communicate alone must use technology today. So it's hard to monitor what he's been doing these past few days."

"Sound! Suddenly busy, even though the store seems to be in good condition. I didn't give him a job either because in this wedding, the family can't think about the company. What's he working on? Why have I been calling since it's always out of reach?" Mr. Edward felt something was wrong with his son's former fiancee.

Lately Rio busy himself, away from the family of Mr. Edward as well as his mother. No one knows what is done.

When Mr. Edward interrogates Sonya's mom, Frans passes them by. Frans wanted to welcome her in-laws.

"French! You know Rio's not?" ask Mr. Edward for a moment as his son passes in front of him.

Frans stopped his steps.

"No, Papa. We have not met for a few days. Maybe he's busy starting a business, Pa. You see, he's never been like this before" Frans replied, then continued his footsteps toward the spot where his car-in-law stopped.

"Half hours from the start, why hasn't Devan appeared yet" muttered Mr. Edward quietly.

Mama Ratna approached her husband after accompanying her daughter to be groomed by MUA.

"How's Pa, has Devan come?" ask mama Ratna to make sure the bride is already in place.

"Yet, Ma. His number could not be reached either. Rio also disappeared somewhere," said Mr. Edward began to panic.

"Today is the day of Rio's heartbreak, so it's only natural that he disappears. He needs time to calm down" Dolly said suddenly.

"What do you mean say that, Dolly?" asked the curious mother.

Dolly just shrugged both of her shoulders indifferently.

"Dolly got your ears to hear, didn't she?" mama Ratna asked, getting upset.

"Now Dolly asked, who is the one who laughs happily to see the adoration of the heart edited by others?" dolly answered with a question that made Mama Ratna's emotions rise.

"You're going around too much to make Mama dizzy!" mama Ratna said with her right hand holding her head.

"Don't go around turning his head, Ma! Enough thoughts that revolve," said Dolly.

"Based on your disobedient son! I love to prank old people."

"Don't be angry, Ma! Soon old, wrinkled. Fear Papa will find young leaves," ledek Dolly.

That's how Dolly if with the mother, there is always a joke material that adds to their familiarity.

Miss Sonya who listened to the conversation of the mother and child, became reminded of the only boy. So familiar and close. Joking, however, does not diminish respect for the older person above us.

Sonya's mom's lips pulled upwards a little, smiling at the interaction between mother and child. Although the age of the child is no longer young, but the treatment of parents remains the same.

"Shame, Dolly! We just cake the cat and the anjeng, the fight from earlier is endless," said mama Ratna finally, Dolly just grinned to show a row of white teeth.

Mama Ratna turned to Miss Sonya, then approached.

"I'm sorry, Jeng. Such is our eldest child, the age is adult but his attitude is like a child," said Mama Ratna as she touched the arm of Sonya's mother.

"Look easy, Mom! I understand him, Rio also sometimes behaves like that," replied Sonya's mother with a smile.
