"That was Angga's secretary in the office, wasn't it, Rob?" Ask Mama Sita to Papa Robert who was also heard by Mom Yumi who stood not far from the parents of the Angga.
"Yes!" Reply Papa Robert.
"His name is Diftha and the one in the wheelchair is his sister Diftha. His name is Gizta" Papa Robert told his wife.
"Yesterday during the engagement of Reina and Angga, Diftha was not able to attend because Gizta was being treated in the hospital" Papa Robert said again.
Mom Yumi, who was still listening to the conversation between Papa Robert and Mama Sita, suddenly remembered the incident in the kitchen when Reina told the maid at home to prepare some food.
"Who are you sending food to?"
"For Gizta."
"Who's gizta?"
"Diftha's sister, Mom!"
"Diftha?"
"My friend Reina from High School. Now Diftha is working as Angga's secretary, so yes!"
"It just so happens that Diftha's sister is sick from an accident, Mom. So it takes extra attention and nutritious food."
"Which Reina did this is not excessive, is it, Mom?"
"Gizta Diftha's sister...." Mom Yumi muttered to herself.
"So went with Angga?" Mom asked Yumi when Reina came home late.
"They're out of town, Mom! Reina went to Gizta's house."
Mom Yumi immediately threw her gaze towards Reina who was talking with Diftha, Gizta, and there was Angga there too. Now Reina and Diftha were shaking hands while exchanging glances.
Or rather, staring at each other for a long time.
What does that mean?
Reina shouldn't have done that because that girl is already the legal wife of Angga now!
Can't be allowed!
Mom Yumi was just about to approach Reina, when suddenly her hand was dragged by someone.
"Yum! There's an important guest!" Said Dad Liam while forcing Mom Yumi to accompany him to meet one of the important guests. Mom Yumi could not dodge, and the middle-aged woman was forced to follow her husband first. However, his eyes were still watching Reina and Diftha from a distance. Mom Yumi will talk to Reina!
****
"Answer, Reina!" Urge Mom Yumi who has shaken both shoulders Reina who has been silent since then and never answered the question from the Mom.
"Answer what?" Reina finally opened her voice.
"Reina is Angga's wife now and Reina has never harbored feelings for Diftha or any man, Mom!"
"The feeling of Reina's love is only for Angga!" Reina replied without looking at Mom Yumi. Reina simply lowered her face while answering a question from Mom Yumi.
"really that? Then why don't you look Mom in the face, if you only love Angga and don't betray behind Angga?" Mom Yumi's sneak that immediately made Reina lift her face, then look at her face.
"You love Diftha?" Ask Mom Yumi again.
"No!" Reina replied while staring firmly into Mom Yumi's netra.
"Reina only thinks of Diftha as a friend, nothing more," Reina replied in earnest.
"Then why do you seem so upset and worried, when you are near Diftha? Your body gesture also seems to indicate that you have something on Diftha-"
"Reina just feels guilty! That's all!" Sergeh Reina fast.
"Why do you feel guilty?" Mom Yumi asked, not understanding.
Reina let out a long sigh first before answering a question from Mom Yumi.
"Actually, a few weeks ago Diftha once expressed her feelings for Reina, Mom!" Reina started the story.
Yes, rather than harboring it, then even making Reina jolt for a long time, it might be good if Reina told Mom Yumi. Perhaps Mom Yumi had a solution to put an end to the anxiety in Reina's heart.
"Diftha doesn't know about your status of having a boyfriend?" Mom Yumi asked.
"Diftha didn't know, because Angga hid a picture of us both in the drawer." Reina paused for a moment because she felt something was wrong in the delivery.
"Reina didn't mean to hide, but to keep it because the picture frame broke." Reina corrected the story earlier.
"So Diftha didn't know that you were actually Angga's lover and the man then expressed his feelings?"
"Have you given Diftha a chance before?" Cecar Mom Yumi interrogates.
"Opportunities?" Reina muttered, before then continuing to shake her head.
"Said Diftha, he has indeed liked Reina since High School," said Reina again conveying a fact
"But you also pay great attention to Gizta!" Sergey Mom Yumi reminded.
"That's because Reina pity on Gizta, Mom! Didn't Mom say that Reina's attitude was not excessive and Mom was also supportive?" Reina said reasoned while looking for justification.
"Yes! Mom didn't think much back then and thought you and Diftha were just ordinary friends" Mom Yumi said.
"Reina used to think so, Mom! Reina only thinks of Diftha as a friend"
"But then when Diftha suddenly expressed her feelings, you changed and wondered if you might have the same feelings for Diftha, too" Mom Yumi said on target, until it made Reina shut up for a moment.
"Yes, so? That's why you're so upset that you even got to your wedding day!" Mom Yumi's sneer again seemed to be uncovering everything that Reina felt.
"Then you reason to feel guilty for making Diftha heartbroken by not returning his love," Mom Yumi said again.
"And now, Reina's guilty feelings for Diftha seemed to continue to haunt.." Reina's voice stuck in the throat.
"Then what do you want now? Want to repay Diftha's feelings for you so that the man doesn't become disappointed and heartbroken?" It was Mom Yumi's sneer that instantly made Reina shake her head strongly.
"Reina is Angga's wife now, Mom!".
"That's you know! You realize! Then why are you still busy thinking about the feelings of other men when you were just legitimately the wife of Angga, Reina!" Mom Yumi had already grabbed both of the princess' shoulders.
"Now, if Diftha only dared to come here, congratulate you and Angga, it means that Diftha has thrown away her feelings for you, Reina!"
"So you shouldn't even worry about Diftha's feelings. Worrying about whether the man was hurt, was the man upset as well!" Mom Yumi shook her head and seemed to be inexhaustible.
"That's really unnecessary, Reina!"
"You are Angga's wife, so just focus on your relationship with Angga!"
"Just think about how Angga feels, let's say he knows you're still thinking about another man, when you're already the legal wife of Angga!"
"Think of it, Reina!" Mom Yumi repeated her sentence, as if she was resuscitating Reina who was struck by a tremendous turmoil.
"You must be hurt, Mom," said Reina who finally opened her voice.
"That's you know!"
"You want to make Angga hurt and constantly suspect you?" Mom Yumi asked immediately which made Reina shake her head.
"You want to live a household filled with quarrels and suspicions?" Smile Mom Yumi again and Reina again shook her head.
"Focus on your household with Angga then!"
"I apologize to Angga if necessary because of your disappointing attitude during the event!" Mom Yumi's advice at length still while holding both shoulders of the princess.
"You hear Mom, Reina?"
"Yes, Mom!" Reina answered quickly as she lifted her face and returned Mom Yumi's gaze.
"Mom knows, if you're a little disappointed in Angga's workaholic attitude, Reina!" Said Mom Yumi again which immediately made Reina shake her head.
"Reina has already cursed him, Mom!"
"Toh, marrying Angga was a choice of Reina's heart," Reina's great-grandson stared intently at Mom Yumi.
"There was never any coercion from Mom, Dad, or from the Angga family."
"Reina getting married to Angga was Reina's own choice because Reina did love Angga, Mom!"
"So Reina has to accept whatever the lack of Angga," Reina said at length with eyes that have been glazed. Mom Yumi stared proudly at her daughter.
"Mom's happy if you can finally act this wise, Rei!" Mom Yumi said as she scooped Reina into her arms .
"May you and Angga always be given happiness in the future, yes!" Said Mom Yumi again who now had changed to wiping the clear grains in the corner of Reina's eyes.
"Yes, Mom!"
"Amijin!" Reina slid back into Mom Yumi's arms, releasing all the burdens that had been stuck in her chest since yesterday.
The burden of how Diftha felt, which Reina should not have thought....
"Ehem!" Deheman from Angga immediately made Reina quickly wipe her tears that returned to well.
"Still a spoiled old man to Mom?" Angga asked which immediately made Mom Yumi chuckle and let go of her embrace at the princess.
"It's over, Angga!"
"Reina is ready to dance with you" Mom Yumi said, uniting Reina and Angga's hands. The middle-aged woman then inched back and let Angga carry Reina into the middle of the room to begin their first dance as a married couple.
"You're gonna ask me to argue again?" Reina asked as Angga had already wrapped one hand around Reina's waist. While the other hand Angga, tightly grasped Reina's hand.
"Actually, I've eavesdropped your curses on Mom earlier," Angga replied making a confession. Reina was stunned and the woman immediately stared guiltily at Angga.
"Female, I promise that I will throw away my worries earlier," Reina said earnestly.
"Yes, you should be, because you're my wife, Reina!"
"You can only think of me and all the things about myself"
"Ck!" Reina immediately clucked and hit the small chest of Angga, before then the woman again wrapped her arms around the neck of Angga.
"You too can only think of me then and stop cheating on your laptop!" Reina then demanded Angga who suddenly chuckled.
"Later if I hadn't cheated on my laptop, my job would be a mess, and then I wouldn't have the money to buy you food, clothes, powder, lipstick...." Angga poked Reina's nose with anxiety. Reina's face immediately met with red.
"So, you're gonna keep cheating on me with your ugly laptop?" Tanya Reina made sure.
"Only in the office."
"I promise" Angga replied.
"Because later at home, there is something more tempting...." Angga brought his face closer to Reina's face, then slightly tilted his head, before then the man fused his lips with Reina's lips.
"I love you!" Whisper Angga mesra.
"I love you too, My husband!"
