"I'm waiting in the car" said a young man standing behind him. The woman in front of him was still speechless, she was still crouching holding the tombstone in front of her. There are four new mounds of earth, which are none other than the tombs of both his parents and his in-laws. She was still crying, and no longer knew what to do.
"Don't take too long, it looks like it's going to rain." Said the young man again, without looking again at her dead woman herself.
Silent, silent, there was only air and the sobbing of the woman was getting louder. He did not say anything just repeatedly wiping away his increasingly unstoppable tears. Lastly he clenched his palms and heard prayers from both his lips.
Not long after, the woman went away from the funeral, approaching a car not far from the place.
Tok tok tok tok
He knocked on the car's glass. Not long before the glass was open and it was seen that the young man was waiting. Without further ado, he extended his hand and opened the door for the woman.
"I'm sorry, I was a long time ago" said the woman. The man simply fell silent and hinted to enter immediately.
The car drove down the street. The streets are quiet, maybe it is also felt by these two people.

" Zahwa" called the young man. His name was Zahwa, the woman he had just married. Her choice of women was her parents, who had just died along with Zahwa's parents who were none other than her in-laws.
"Mas Hanan, calling me, is there anything you need?," Zahwa asked somewhat hesitantly as the call sounded faint, and it was probably the first time the young man in front of him had called his name.
"Oh, thank you, sorry to bother you" said Zahwa.
"Today you rest, let me cook. "
"Just take a break, from yesterday mas has not rested, because it must take care of the funeral of the father's mother," Zahwa argued, although she also looks tired but she will not make her husband bother for himself anymore.
"OK! we'll order food." Hanan said at last, he also did not want to make her bother, moreover seeing her tired.
"Alright," replied zahwa.
The two finally decided to take a break. Zahwa after refreshing his body looks like he wants to lie on his mattress, but seems hesitant because Hanan has already fallen asleep there. Even though they were married but today was the first day they stayed one house and even one room. Finally he broke his intention to lie on the mattress and switched to a long sofa near the window of the room.
Her parents' accident, her sudden marriage and the deaths of her parents. Everything happened so quickly, sometimes making Zahwa assume that this was all just a dream. But no, it's all real. In front of her was now asleep the man who had now legally become her husband. Men who previously did not know him at all, and even first met when they had a wedding.
The accident was experienced by his parents and in-laws, who were none other than Hanan's parents. Making her fourth experienced a critical few days in the hospital. It was Hanan's father who was still fully conscious, asking Zahwa and Hanan to get married soon. Without knowing the reason, what and how? they both eventually married. Maybe at that time what he thought was to make his parents happy.
In the end, their marriage became their parents' last trust.
