Flashback a few days earlier....
"Hello, Ma!" Sapa Randu after her phone was picked up by Mama Rika.
Randu had just arrived at his apartment, after a trip from the tea garden. But Randu seemed not to waste time and instead directly contact Mrs Rika Wiyata who is the real mama of Randu.
"Ma? You who?"
"Geez!" Randu patted his own forehead.
"It's Randu, Ma! Wiyata Stretcher!" Replied Randu holding back the upset in his heart.
"Oh, how come your number doesn't have her name on your phone? Don't change the number!"
"Randu number is changed only once. Hasn't Rania kept it on Mama's phone yet?" Randu is scapegoating Rania now.
"not like him. So why, Randu? You're still in the villa?"
"Have returned to the apartment, Ma!"
"And Randu wants to propose to a girl, Ma!" Said Randu to the point.
"Applying girls? Son-in-law's candidate for mama?"
"Yes!"
"When?"
"When is there time?" Randu asked the mother.
"Now you have time!"
"It's night, Ma! When did you propose to girls at night?" Gerrutu Randu protested.
"Faster is better! All good things must be done! Tonight you go to his house to propose, get married tomorrow!"
"It's so simple!" Cibir Randu on the mama who always do things efficiently but still totality.
"Must!"
"So Mama's at your place now? Where's your daughter-in-law's house?"
"In this city. But we propose to him tomorrow afternoon, Ma!" Randu.
"Why not tomorrow morning? I like to postpone work!"
"Tomorrow mama's morning to go there! We're lamar...."
"Who's the girl's name?"
"Azzalea Andreas, Ma!" randu answered quickly while imagining Lea's face that looked disappointed when Randu said yesterday that he would propose to a girl.
"You want to propose to Azza, Ndu? He said yesterday broke up?"
"Yes, indeed! But Mama Randu said to be told back again! She said Mama was with Azza!" Tukas Randu reasoned.
"So, Azza is getting married and not focusing on her career anymore?"
"Don't know!" Sandu sniffed both his shoulders.
"Obviously, Randu wants to propose to Azza first! The business of him is married or not, it is important that Randu has proposed to him, Ma!" Reveal Randu again which may now immediately make the mother frown in wonder.
"This is how you mean? If Azza refuses-"
"Azza's not home, Ma!" Sela Randu fast.
"Azza is still at his Eyang house, and Randu wants to apply directly to Azza's parents" explained Randu again.
"Okay, Mama's going there in the morning! We'll meet Azza's parents soon!"
"Yes!" Randu cheered happily and felt impatient to soon meet Uncle Daniel and Aunty Thalia.

"So we don't have to look for Lea, Pi?" Ask Mami Thalia to Papi Daniel who has finished breakfast and is ready to go to the office .
"No need! Let Leah think and reflect on her mistake!" Answer Papi Daniel.
"But what if Lea did something reckless"
"No way!" Sela Papi Daniel was quick along with the front door bell that suddenly rang.
Who's visiting early in the morning?
Mami Thalia rushed to open the front door, and the middle-aged woman was immediately startled when she found Randu standing at the door.
"Who's coming, Mi?" Asked Papi Daniel who had rushed over to the front.
"Good morning, Uncle, Aunty!" Sapa Randu politely nodded his head.
"What are you doing here, Randu? Didn't Uncle forbid you to come here again?" Uncle Daniel was not angry, but guilty.
"Sorry, but Randu can't, Uncle!"
Uncle Daniel sighed, before finally allowing Randu to enter. Leah is not home either.
"What's up here so early? You're not looking for Lea, are you?" Papi Daniel asked after he and Randu sat on the living room sofa.
"It's better that you don't have to look for Leah anymore" muttered Papi Daniel again.
"Randu knows that Lea is not at home, Uncle," said Randu who immediately made Uncle Daniel stare fixedly at Randu.
"You're still watching Lea and looking for information on her?" Guess Uncle Daniel didn't understand Randu's stubbornness.
"It seems to have been innate from Randu's work as a case investigator, Uncle," said Randu reasoned with a small laugh.
"Oh, yeah! You're a detective in the same office as Haezel, huh?"
"Uncle knows Haezel?" Tanya Randu enthusiastically.
"Not really. Just so you know because he's the nephew of my partner"
Uncle Daniel's phone is ringing.
"That's long life! Just talked about!" Uncle Daniel muttered before then the middle-aged man picked up the phone.
"Hello, Kyle! I'm a little late to the office because there's important business at home!"
"But I'm staying in the office, right?"
"Yes! Maybe after lunch!"
"alright. Just making sure."
Uncle Daniel's done calling.
"Haezel's uncle had called. Kyle Arthur's. You familiar?" Uncle Daniel slightly invited Randu to have a chat. But then Randu just shook his head.
"So, you came here early in the morning for?" Ask Uncle Daniel again
"To propose to Azzalea Andreas to be Randu's wife, Uncle!" replied Randu with a firm and loud tone. There was no doubt at all from the tone of Randu's speech as well as the expression on the young man's face.
"Randu, you know how Lea is! How did he behave to you yesterday!"
"Randu know, Uncle!" Reply Randu firmly.
"But can't everyone change and reflect on their mistakes, Uncle?"
"It may have been Lea's attitude yesterday on Randu because she was still crazy about Rayyen. But now that Leah knew all of Rayyen's rottenness, it's possible that Lea had also contemplated her mistake, had changed better as well." Randu looked up a little and recalled Lea who had more face down when she met Randu. No more snail and arrogant than that girl.
Randu believes that Lea has been aware of his mistakes and mistakes so far and Lea deserves a second chance.
"How can you be so sure of that? We don't even know where Lea is right now"
"Randu knows where Lea is, Uncle!" Sergeah Randu fast.
"Where?" Ask Aunty Thalia who had been silent since then just listening to Uncle Daniel and Randu talk.
"On the hill near the tea garden. Aunty must know who Lea is at home," replied Randu who instantly made Uncle Daniel and Aunty Thalia compactly muttered.
"Mommy's house." The two Lea parents looked at each other.
"You met him?" Ask Uncle Daniel again to Randu.
"It happens, Uncle! When Randu was accompanying Randu's sister who prewedding photos in the tea garden."
"Lea was selling cakes and donuts around the house of Eyang Wida and she was already seen to realize her mistake. He is calmer now and no longer tired" explained Randu at length on Uncle Daniel and Aunty Thalia.
"So that's the reason that finally makes you steady proposing to Lea now?" Ask Uncle Daniel.
"Yes, Uncle! And because Randu still loves Leah, too" said Randu earnestly.
Uncle Daniel only shook his head with Randu's stubbornness.
"And one more thing," said Randu again, looking intently at Uncle Daniel and Aunty Thalia.
"Randu brought Mama Randu this morning to propose to Lea," continued Randu again along with a car that entered the courtyard of the Andreas family home.
"Shortly, Uncle!" Permit Randu while standing up, then pick up Mama Rika who has come down from the car.
Not long after, Randu had entered Uncle Daniel's house again with Mama Rika.
"Mom Rica?" Sapa Uncle Daniel who apparently also know Mama Rika.
"Morning, Sir...." Mama Rika remembers Uncle Daniel's name.
"Eyang Wida's son, right?" Ask Mama Rica to make sure.
"Yes, right! I'm Daniel and this is my wife Thalia!" Uclncle Daniel mentioned his name that Mama Rika could not remember.
"Ah, yes! Mr Daniel! Sorry, I forgot!"
"Rarely going back to the mountains, yes!" It was Rika's mama who made Uncle Daniel and Aunty Thalia chuckle as well.
"So, Azza is Eyang Wida's grandson, Randu? Why didn't you say?" Mama Rika nudged the son's stomach and nagged a little.
"It's a surprise, Ma! Randu also just found out yesterday." Ringis Randu.
"Let's sit down, Miss Rika!" Mami Thalia said to Mama Rika who was still standing.
"Ah, yes!"
"A real surprise, yeah!" Mama Rika still chuckles.
"We're also snuffed, Miss Rika! Because you do not think that Randu turns out to be your son," said Papi Daniel who still looks surprised.
"He's my eldest son, Mr. Daniel! It's rare to go home too if your mom isn't lying in the hospital yet! Busy with his job as what it is here!"
"What do you do here, Randu?" Ask Mama Rika pretentious on Randu.
"Detective, Ma!" Reply Randu a little furiously.
Papi Daniel and Mami Thalia chuckled.
"So, which Azza?" Ask Mama Rika next.
"Still at the house of Eyang Wida, Ma! Kan Randu has said." Answer Randu quickly.
"Ah, yes!" Mama Rika knocked on her own forehead.
"Then Randu has conveyed his intention to propose to Azza, Mr Daniel?" Mama Rika instead asked Papi Daniel.
"Here you go, Rika!" Answer Papi Daniel quickly.
"Is the proposal accepted? Or maybe you're rejected because your job isn't clear, Randu?" It was Mama Rika who once again made everyone laugh.
"Received, Ma!" Said Randu sure.
"Areally acceptable, Mr Daniel?" Ask Mama Rica to make sure.
"Yes, Mom! We accepted Randu's proposal for our daughter Azzalea" Papi Daniel replied.
"Their wedding is one week away, yes, Mr. Daniel!" Mama Rika's next speech that directly makes Papi Daniel and Mami Thalia widened.
"One more week?"
"Good things are better to hurry and do not need to be delayed, Mr. Daniel! I will take care of everything!" Mama Rika said again in a relaxed tone. It was completely relaxed as if without any burden.
"I personally actually, want it to be the wedding of Randu and Azza held tomorrow or the day after. But since I have an important event that cannot be suspended until next week. So, it was forced next week just Randu and Azza married her," said Mama Rika at length who made Papi Daniel and Mami Thalia can no longer speak.
"And Randu also has one request, Uncle!" Said Randu adding.
"What request?"
"Please don't tell Lea about who's going to marry her until H."
Flashback off
****
"Randu Wiyata and Azzalea Princess Andreas, now you are legal as husband and wife!"
Immediate applause echoed in the courtyard of Lea's parents' second home. Randu was also seen giving thanks repeatedly, while Lea was still in shock and felt that this was just a dream. Lea looked even more like a dazed person now.
Lea's husband turned out to be Randu?
It's like a dream.
"Group!" Randu nudged Lea's shoulder, causing the woman to jump.
Lea then turned her head and looked at the radiant face of Randu. The man also looked very happy.
"Don't keep looking! I will fall in love!" The whisper of Randu who apparently knew that Lea was looking at him.
"Why did you suddenly marry me?" Lea asked confusedly.
"Because I love you!"
"I love you, Azzalea!"
