The Florence

Aunt Aira 2

Mami is still faithful looking at the tombstone of her best friend as if feeling the presence of Aira here. In her lifetime, Aira Shahrani was a good woman, calm, gentle and of course had a beautiful face to be able to conquer the heart of a stiff man named Justin Excelio.

However, dear thousand dear when it comes to life and death someone is the power of God no human being can predict everything. If the accident never happened, maybe now Aira is still in the middle of them.

"Aira, I'm ning kene, saiki my son wes gelem rabbi karo your son. Mugo - mugo your son iso gawe urip my son tentrem selawase. Guiding your son will meet my son, my son ayu you koyo me! Ra's...." (Aira, I'm here, now my son is getting married to your son. May your son make my son's life secure forever. Later your son and my son will meet, my beautiful son like me! Ra.." said Mami while stroking the tombstone of aunt Aira.

Mama invited Mami to stand up slowly, they both could not help but hold back their cries and embrace each other. Aira's departure nearly eighteen years ago still leaves a deep sorrow for Mami and Mama.

Papi approached Mami and took his wife's hand to the car because it was certain that Mami would cry until sobbing if left here for too long.

Papa also immediately grabbed Mama's hand, also took his wife to the car. They go hand in hand, leaving Flo, Kyo and Aiko. Aiko was still glued to look at the tombstone of aunt Aira with a sad look.

Flo approaches her brother-in-law and best friend, until now with a swift Flo put Aiko's head on her shoulder. The sight made Kyo moved along. A shadow of Randy slipped into Kyo's mind.

Randy, sorry Aiko, if he can't be your match, I hope you will find the right woman. It must be hard for you to be apart like this story... Inner Kyo.

"Udah yuk we return, will you have to meet his son Om Justin. You're ready, right?" flo asked as she gently stroked Aiko's broken hair covering her pretty face.

Aiko looked at Flo's face, the girl trying to arch a thin smile. Flo patted gently on the back of Aiko's hand then tucked Aiko's hair behind her ear gently. Needless to say, Flo loved Aiko like a brother even though they were already in-laws.

Kyo was a little jealous to see that but soon he got a strange feeling that hit his head. The time of jealousy with your own brother, it's strange! He still has a brain that can think clearly. Kyo lets Flo calm Aiko's mind and ignores her.

This time, I was taken! Tomorrow is a different story.. Kyo lirih.

Flo holds Aiko's hand and moves from her position until now they both walk side by side out of the cemetery area with Kyo trailing behind her.

Flo opens the car door for Aiko to get the girl inside. Before Aiko enters, she asks Flo to get in the car. Flo subtly rejects Aiko's request for pity on Kyo.

The car drove after everything had occupied their respective seats. The two cars went hand in hand leaving a fairly large burial area on the outskirts of the city.

Kyo and Flo followed where the two cars went at medium speed. Without them all knowing, several pairs of eyes stared at their departure, even from the beginning came until they left there with a distance that was not so far away.

That afternoon was a moment that Aiko would never forget. Because soon she will meet her future husband.

Ten minutes passed and there were no signs of the presence of Om Justin and his son.

Without Aiko noticing, cold sweat poured out from her temple. Flo who was next to him realized that he took the initiative to take a piece of dry tissue in front of him gently wipe Aiko's forehead.

Kyo who saw him could only clench in admiration in his heart. How lucky he is to have a wife like Flo.

"Sorry, wait a long time!" said Om Justin while greeting one by one people who have been waiting for his arrival.

"No, not for an hour!" Papi chimed in to Om Justin's question while patting the middle-aged man on the shoulder.

"Sorry, the usual classic reason. It's jammed! Hehehe," said Om Justin to Papi as he chuckled.

After shaking hands with all the members of his prospective family and the Flo family, they again enjoyed the food that had been served on the table.

Aiko's gaze was fixed on Justin, there was a question that perched in his head. Where's son? Why did he come alone? Is this match cancelled? Should he be disappointed or relieved at this time?

As if to guess the contents of Aiko's mind, Om Justin opened a small talk on the two women and two middle-aged men in front of him.

"I'm sorry, my son is probably late. Ordinary, young man," chirped Justin to answer the question of everyone on the rectangular table.

"Aiko, this is Justin's husband Aunt Aira. The guy's good. So you won't be the son-in-law." joked Mama who responded positively by Mami. They looked happy as they explained in front of Aiko.

"Yes dong must be it! As the name implies, Aiko is a beloved baby. Although Om Justin is not your biological parent, but om will be a father-in-law who loves you like his own son. If the child Om naughty do not hesitate to tell Om yes. Eralat, from today call me Dad is not om anymore yes," pinta Om Justin. Aiko simply nodded and created a fake smile on her face.

Aiko was a little nervous as she was about to grab her drink. Flo swiftly gave a cup of sugar stone tea in Aiko's hand. And Aiko sipped her drink little by little with feelings that could not be expressed in words.

"Don't be nervous either, relax, Aiko," Flo whispered in Aiko's ear. Aiko just nodded slowly. It seems that today will be celebrated as Aiko's silent day. Not much to say, even acting rarely.

"Good afternoon everyone." said someone familiar to their table. Smile on the man's face. With a bouquet of flowers in hand complements and arguably even perfects its appearance that afternoon.

Aiko gasped at the man standing before her.

Kevin's? She's she? She's my future husband? Inner Aiko.

Flo and Kyo glanced at each other then looked back at Kevin who was smiling there.

Kevin approached Aiko and immediately gave Aiko a bouquet of roses.

"This is a flower for you, please accept yes. Read also a piece of paper in it," said Kevin while smiling sweetly as he gave the flower and had changed into Aiko's hand.

Since when did Kevin say it could be so sweet as this? Usually I am too! What's in this paper? Why use a letter show - suratan everything... Aiko's mind while staring at the rose that had been in her grasp.
