The Ugly's

Prologues

Sinta Bella Puspita, her name. Commonly called Sinta. As a child, she was called Bella. But, because of his ugly face, he was often scolded and insulted that his name did not match his ugly face. He told his mother everything and her mother said,

“Who's son Mother is not beautiful. You're beautiful. Every human being has their own advantages and disadvantages. Maybe your child is not beautiful when viewed from the physical, but your child is good and likes to help others. The name is prayer, baby. Mother gave the name Bella so that you are beautiful from the heart not from the physical.”

Although his mother had given words that were soothing, but, still did not change Sinta's thinking to change her nickname. Since then, he has always been called by the name Sinta— except his mother who still calls him by the name Bella. For Sinta, anyone who called her by the name of Bella indirectly that person had insulted Sinta the exception of her own mother. For Sinta, only her mother can call her Bella. Her father was not allowed to call her Bella. His father asked, at that time,

*“Why can't you call me Bella? While Mother can.”

“Dad can't! Only Mother can. Because the mother who gave the name Bella to Sinta. So, only Mom can call Sinta by the name of Bella.”*

Sinta's father had also forgotten to call her Bella. So, Sinta discussed it by telling her mother about things that were not true from her father. Like this, for example,

“Bu, the last time Bella came home from school, Bella went to the park and saw Dad making out with another woman. Keep Bella samperin Daddy, but Dad told the girl that I don't know Bella, ma'am.”

Because Bella's words are not right. Sinta's father was not allowed to sleep in the room with his beloved wife for one week.

Sinta is the only child. Therefore, he was very much loved by his family. Not as pretty as the people out there.

Alfrendo Rama Wijaya, his name. Rama's school is a very popular boy. His face is very handsome, to make women want to be his girlfriend. He was one of the playboys at school. Although he is a playboy, can not change the expectations of women to be his girlfriend. For women, being one of her girlfriends is good luck.

*“You're why you're a playboy. Poor to know the woman whose heart hurt you. No one wants to be with you?”

“Lha? Mama asked Rama! Mama should ask Papa dong, why Papa became a playboy? Nature Rama ‘kan nature Papa too. I'm still young, Ma. So, Rama wanted to enjoy this life. Who says Rama no one wants to? The proof is that women all want Rama to be a girlfriend.”*

Since then, his mother never asked again, while it was still appropriate. His mother prayed that her son would get a woman who could change him for the better. Only one hope of his mother, Rama stopped being a playboy.

Not like the story of Ramayana, where Sinta and Rama love each other. Wasn't it! It's different.

Sinta and Rama.

Both have one thing in common: they do not believe in love.

How is love between the two?
