And recently, Mama Dini also got new facts. That for 3 years married to Fatih, Sarah never touched by the man once.


In fact, they had a separate room until the middle-aged woman fell ill and had to get intensive care from the family doctor.


Even so, the middle-aged woman refused to be treated in the hospital and chose to be treated at home. Because if in the hospital the middle-aged woman will feel lonely, considering she only has a husband and one son who is busy with her work.“How are you doing, son? now which school?” asked Mama Dini after she calmed down and stopped her crying.


“Good Oma, now Aliya school in Madrasah Nurul Aisyah. And Aliya is now in class 4,” replied Aliya who made a smile present on the faces of three adults who were beside her.


“Then, how is your mother son? Oma was eager to meet him. But Oma's health hasn't allowed it,”


“Bunda is fine, just a little more hassle preparing for her wedding with Papa Hanan,”


“Me_married? Mommy wants to get married” asked Mama Dini who was back made shocked by the news of Aulia's marriage with a man who Aliya had just mentioned his name.


Suddenly, it also made Mama Dini turn her head and look at her son. With a sad face, Fatih nodded her head.


Mama Dini also asked her granddaughter a lot of things to divert her son's feelings. Mama Dini knew, if her only son had an unfinished story with his past.


Until Fatih could not touch another woman even though she was officially married. Even so, we cannot fight the path of destiny either.


While the two people who had been involved in complicated problems due to misunderstandings in the past were destined not to unite even though there was a child between them.

"Aliya is asleep?" Ask Mama Dini when she sees her son coming back into her room.


"Already," replied Fatih.


The man walked up to the mother and then unexpectedly, Fatih rammed his body into the body of the mother.


The man was crying in his mother's arms. Spilling all the tightness that had been squeezing his chest.


Even the sense of tightness is increasing after knowing if the woman he has always loved will belong to another man.


Fatih really regretted all his deeds and stupidity first. If only he had the courage to confess his depraved deeds. Maybe now he won't feel this sick.


"Do you love her so much?" Tanya mama Dini was full of tenderness, wiping the mane of the son who was now resting in front of her.


There was no answer from the man, but a nod of the head was enough to answer the question.


"Seeklaskan, this is your destiny. If you dare to confess your actions. None of this is gonna happen,"


"Yes Ma, Fatih will try to forget her. Fatih will focus on Aliya's growth." The man shrieked in his sobs.


"Just, let tonight Fatih evaporate all this tightness Ma, help Fatih Ma. Help Fatih so that Fatih is strong to live the natural law that God gave for the actions of Fatih first Ma." The next thing that hugged the body of the mother.


"Yes Ma, I'm sorry that Mama had to see a weak Fatih like this,"


"No son, come to Mama if you find it difficult."


"Yes Mah, thank you."

"Assalamualaikum," a gentle greeting turned the attention of a hijab-wearing woman from her work toward the source of the voice.


"Greetings, good afternoon ma'am. Can anyone help?" Aulia asked the middle-aged woman who had just walked into her shop.


"I want to meet Aulia, does Aulia exist?" Answer the middle-aged woman with an appearance that is still quite fashionable at her age who is no longer young.


"I'm Aulia Ma'am, what's wrong?? Is there anything I can help you with?" Aulia answered welcoming the presence of the new woman the first time she met.


"I'm Fatih's mom, can I talk in private?"

Aulia's friendly smile instantly disappeared as the middle-aged woman mentioned Fatih's name. Coupled with the name Mama, increasingly makes Aulia silent fixated in her place.


A few days after meeting with Aliya, Mama Dini finally decided to meet Aulia to apologize for her son's actions first.


And now, this is where Mama Dini is today. Stand in front of Aulia and ask for the woman's time and opportunity to meet.


"Please, give me a chance to talk to you son. There are many things that I want to tell you," continued Mama Dini again when she saw Aulia was just silent without responding to questions from her.


"All right, wait a minute." Aulia replied, who immediately tidied up her work on the table and immediately moved from her place.


"Git, please take care of the store for a moment. I hope the guest first," Aulia told Gita before bringing in Mama Dini in her break room.


"Ready Ma'am," replied Gita who now turned forward to keep the cake shop.


"Let's Mom, we're talking inside." Aulia continued, allowing the middle-aged woman to enter the inside of her shop.


Upon entering the room, Mama Dini was amazed by the contents of her room. There is one large bed in the corner of the room, a long sofa in front of which there is a large television and a mini kitchen that is so clean and neat.


"Come, please sit down, ma'am. Maad the room is narrow, but this is a suitable place for us to talk," said Aulia who let Mama Dini come in and sit down.


Aulia herself covered the mini kitchen to make warm tea drinks and also prepared snacks that were already available there.


"Please taste Mom, sorry you only have this," continued Aulia thrust one cup of warm tea and also her snack.


"Thank you," replied Mama Dini, then took the teacup to taste Aulia's tea.


"Here, sit by Mama" said Mama Dini when Aulia prefers to sit on the lip of the bed rather than next to the middle-aged woman.
