“Nadia, you've been thinking well of your decision, son?” Salima asked, Nadia's mother, gently patting her son's shoulder. At that time Nadia was packing all supplies and personal items before her departure to Surabaya, a city that would become the next residence.
“Already, Mom ... Don't worry, yeah. Nadia will be diligent phone if later it has started working.” Nadia said while stopping for a moment the activity of putting clothes in her large suitcase.
“But, your unusual mother lives, Nad. I'm sure I'm gonna miss you, son.”
“Bu, is there hp? We can video call, Bu.”
“Oh, the ...”
Salima felt heavy left by her favorite child, so far only Nadia who she could always rely on to help. Especially after the failure of her marriage one month ago, making her daughter always focus on making her happy.
Nadia was sad, she seemed always moody in every activity carried out every day. However, the woman can always overcome and even cover up her feelings. It felt like there was no one as strong as Nadia at the moment, where she was humiliated by her own lover, felt betrayed and also slammed into endless heart tribulations in a row.
The shame he was experiencing now due to the failure had almost melted the bones in his body. He may look tough when forced to leave the house to meet the demands of teaching at school. In fact, deep down the shame seemed to be her daily clothes.
Therefore, he tried to apply for other jobs both in government agencies, education and also to various companies. All that he did as an excuse to be able to leave his current residence.
He wants to leave his hometown not because he does not love both parents, or relatives and friends. But he wanted to avoid his embarrassment every time he met everyone who knew who he was.
She is a girl who failed to marry because her future husband was attended by his legal wife during the Qabul ijab! It's very sad, isn't it?
Especially now that he heard that Antoni remained with his wife, who is slowly starting to love him. Nadia found out about the news by accident, making her heart hurt even more. She is not a naive woman and is reluctant to hear any news about her ex-lover, but there is only information coming from some people without her asking.
Nadia is so sorry for her own stupidity blinded by love, not knowing Antoni's true nature. He had given up his whole heart to love her, but it turned out that she was just an escape.
Although, Antoni said if he was the only woman in his heart, then, what about his wife? Do not deny marriage because the matchmaking will eventually grow also love wrote between them. Then, what if he and Antoni stay married also in the name of love? Truly, canceling the marriage was the right decision.
Nadia will build her own love, build her own household without involving or without any other party in her future relationship.
Nadia and Salima hug after the girl finishes packing her suitcase. Eventually the two women split up as well, but they had to let go of each other for a much better future. A Mother must be willing to let go of her son who will work in the big city and move on with his life after a humiliating ruin.
Nadia took a taxi to get to the terminal, after arriving at the parking lot of various buses of the city and province, he said, he also took the bus in accordance with the department that will take him to go to the city of hope.
He's already gotten a call letter to work at a new company there. The company is one of the branches and is based in Jakarta. The girl is ready for whatever job she will be busy with. Although only as a manual laborer he was willing, as long as he could go to eliminate his embarrassment.
Actually he hoped to return to teaching at school like before, but it turned out that only this cover letter got the answer to inevitably, he had to take advantage of this opportunity well.
It was until late afternoon when the city bus that Nadia was riding reached the area where she was going to work. The girl booked a boarding place online, as well as a vehicle that would take her from the terminal to the rental house.
He found the place from an online site that provides boarding house services, because in his new city is very densely populated which when having a boarding house business will definitely sell.
“Basic, you're unemployed! Go there!” yelled a young mother, along with the sound of a toddler's crying, as Nadia passed by one of the boarding houses, she pulled a large suitcase towards the address listed on her phone screen. He almost collided with a dull-clothed man and was pushed out of the house violently.
“Indeed, what's wrong with being unemployed?” muttered the man annoyed, glanced at the young mother who kicked him out, then glanced at Nadia as well, who was very close to him.
Nadia quickly shook her head then ...
“Excuse me... I want to pass, in front of it my boarding place.” Nadia Sahut.
The man raised an eyebrow then pulled one corner of his lips.
“You're my new neighbor? I live there too. My name is Zan. Call it that way.” Zan the man, said as he extended his hand.
Nadia looked at the man without expression her forehead wrinkled up and then received a helping hand without saying anything.
“Heh! What's your name?” ask Zan.
Nadia wondered why there was such a chatty man like Zan. He had only first discovered a man of this type and it felt strange, amused but at the same time annoying.
“Nadia,” say Nadia flat.
“Oh.”
“Cuma oh doang Ya already got out there, I want to pass,” Nadia said as she walked past Zan and dragged her suitcase, which she had been waiting for, unexpectedly Zan took the suitcase from Nadia's hand by force and took it and they walked together.
“Sini, let me bring you,” said Zan without looking at Nadia. “ I'm good, really. The people here alone are cool, disgusted at me just because I'm unemployed. CK! Unemployment is unclean what?”
Zan rattled while continuing to walk. While Nadia did not bully and walked by his side.
“So that's yes, Bu Neni's son fell, well, I help, keep me anterin, uh, keep on using the cussing everything says me . What is my fault? She should be grateful that I helped her son fall, right? Lah Bu Neni, say thank you!” Zan again rambled his own annoyance at his own fate, making Nadia shake her head.
After arriving at one of the number eight rental houses, Nadia and Zan stopped. It was there that Nadia would stay, for a while until another future would pick her up one day, she only hoped that good fortune would follow her later.
Not long after, Nadia received a call. The girl picked him up and received a call after attaching the flat object to the ear.
“Halo,” greet Nadia. “Iya, right, I'm Nadia.”
After a few moments of silence because he heard the person from behind the phone talking, Nadia again said, “well, I will wait, then. I want to get some rest.” soon
After that Nadia hung up her phone and put it back in her bag.
“Whose phone did you call, just now?”
