" We have to go home now "Ardi invites Dina to leave the place . Before long Gino and Nabila also left on the grounds of having to wake up tomorrow morning .

Jordi immediately left the place after paying at the cashier . He stepped towards the car park in a doldrums . Seen by the foggy night sky, the flickering of stars in the sky made him remember the calm he felt when he saw the stars in Sukabumi .

" Why do I love to see stars ? " Say in the heart .

Vibrate the phone in his pants pocket disperse the daydream of Jordi . At his handphone , No the father is listed on the mobile phone screen .

" Where are you ? " The father's resolute voice echoed in his phone .

" I'm just going home "answe Jordi .

" Hurry home , I wait thirty minutes , we will go to Sukabumi" said the father as he hung up the phone .

" We left first" said om Adit who immediately entered his car with his wife .

Their car immediately drove away from the house .

" Where have you been until this night? ? , Let's go now ' said the father as he entered the car . Madam Nisa approached Jordi while waving to her husband .

" had something happened "asked Jordi to her mother who was only wearing pajamas .

" There is sad news from Sukabumi, " said the mother while patting her shoulder .

" What are you doing, quickly enter "the father shouted from inside the car .

Jordi immediately left the mother who had not answered her question .

Before long they were driving an incoming message through his WhatsApp application .the message was from the mother .

" Eyang Saka passed away "Jordi was silent reading her mother's short message .

He did not expect to receive the sad news . He was relieved not the grandfather who experienced bad things, but he was also sad and also restless ,. This disaster will certainly make the matchmaking more certain to be done .

The atmosphere was already crowded at Rumah eyang Saka when Jordi and the entourage arrived there after dawn . Yellow flag mounted at the entrance gate . The tent had stood on that vast courtyard .

Eyang Saka is indeed a community leader who is reluctant in the village even to the surrounding village .

Eyang Saka funeral takes place hikmah . Many mourners who took the deceased to the grave . By the time the funeral prayer has finished, everyone goes home and leaves the burial area .

Dila still faithfully kneels beside the tomb . Ms. Lurah faithfully accompanied her, as well as Mr. Gunawan and Mr. Karman . Mak Asih and Lilis did not deliver until the funeral because they continued to cry .

Dila sighed many times, no more tears came out on that face . He was silent and occasionally sighed .

Dila's strong attitude makes Mr. Gunawan even more amazed by the girl's courage .He was more determined to make Dila the granddaughter-in-law of his family

Jordi and her father and Mr. Aditya went straight home that afternoon . While Mr. Gunawan chose to stay even though his son asked him to go home because he was worried about his health, but who dared to force the wishes of Mr. Gunawan .

After three nights passed, Mr. Gunawan said goodbye to Dila and all the residents of the house to go home . Before leaving, he asked Dila to speak with four eyes .

" Dila. like the mandate of Eyang, when returning to Bandung later stay at the house of grandfather "mister Gunawan said softly to Dila .

" Will Be Insane think of cake "answer Dila with her raucous voice .

" There's nothing to think about, do you want to go against your grandfather's wishes ? " Mister Gunawan stared in Dila's face .

" Well..." Reply Dila with a forced smile .

" We're going home now, ' my driver will pick you up after forty days" said eyang as he got up from his seat .

The old man hugged Dila affectionately .

Mr. Gunawan and Mr. Nurdin left the house, a wave of Dila's hands and the house residents accompanied his return to Bandung .

Mr. Gunawan left the village with great sadness . Along the way he kept thinking of ways to fulfill the request of his late best friend .

" My friend what should I do ? ,

His whisper in the heart .

" I really want to take care of Dila and make her my daughter-in-law's granddaughter " muttered Mr. Gunawan .

" What is Mister ? " Mister Nurdin answered him and thought his master was speaking to him .

" Ach is not.., " Mr. Gunawan is silent .

" Do you have any news about the girl ? " Task Mr. Gunawan arrive .

" Which one is sir ? " Tanya Nurdin didn't quite understand her master's intentions .

" Do you mean Jordi's girlfriend or Jidan's boy ?" Mr. Nurdin explained the meaning of the question .

" Don't mention the name of that ungodly child, I won't accept him back . And ask someone to deport him if he returns to this country "snaps Mr. Gunawan .

Mr. Nurdin was silent . He did not convey information about Jidan that he wanted to convey because Mr. Gunawan had emotions first .

" I heard they have broken up, Miss Clarisa is now close to the son of an official who became a successful businessman "pak Nurdin reported the results of his men's investigation after Mr. Gunawan calmed down .

" I ask you to observe Rizky's activities, report to me everything "mister Gunawan ordered

" Your son Rizky sir ? " Task Mr. Nurdin to make sure

" Yes..." Answer Mr. Gunawan while closing his eyes .

" There will be a storm in my house .

" I want to change my will, tell Rudi to come home tomorrow morning ' Mr. Gunawan again gave the order even though his eyes have been closed .

" What's the plan, sir ? " Mister Nurdin tried to read the mind of his master .

The man who since he was a teenager had worked for the Prayoga family knew that his master had long wanted to be different with the Eyang Saka family . And he could read that the plan he was going to pursue in an unusual way .

Moreover, he had asked Dila to stay with him .

" I'll tell you later, just follow my orders, and please watch over Dila as well, I hope she's not close to someone "mister Gunawan muttered .

" Good sir "pak Nurdin replied calmly . Now he knew his master was coming home with a new plan .

The vehicle they were riding on continued to drive towards the winding streets in Sukabumi district .
