There is No Need for Love
S2: Iskandar Muda Pulungan



Excitement enveloped the whole family, this morning was Reni's graduation for her Bachelor of Medicine degree. Everyone is busy, even though they know later who will be able to enter the room only Agung and Meeta, but others no one wants to miss, all of them come to the building.


Others of course just wait outside the building until the graduation activity is finished, even Haris and Natalia are also already there, Haris willing to fly from Kalimantan just want to join in celebrating Reni's graduation, for Haris, the children of Agung and Meeta were like their own children, and in fact, only Farhan called him Uncle, the rest of them had already called Haris' father and Natalia was called Mama Lia.


“Kak Tia”'s.


Mutia raised her head and immediately sumringah. “Iskandar”.


Iskandar greeted everything with great joy, Iskandar did deliberately accelerate the reverse schedule from Australia because he knew his sweetheart Reni graduation today, even this Iskandar no longer stopped at home earlier, because he knew his lover Reni graduated today, from the airport he came straight here, his mother even said, they found him here.


“There saw my mother's same father Brother Tia, he said come here also”.


“Come here ?”.


Iskandar nods his head. Tia circled all corners of the building yard, but did not find Iskandar's father or mother, it was Ariana who saw Iskandar's father and mother who just got off the taxi, Ariana was already very familiar, Ariana was very familiar, reni has taken her to the house of Iskandar's family, Iskandar's sister, Junaidi and Hidayat even missed a week not to see Ariana.


“Itu Wawak just got off the taxi Bang Is”.


Iskandar follows Ariana's index finger. “Oh, Yes .. bentar ya”.


Iskandar immediately pursued his father and mother, Ariana also participated in the pursuit, even Iskandar's mother only briefly hugged his son, even longer hugged Ariana, Iskandar's mother was very fond of Ariana, maybe because his son is all male, so immediately dear to the daughter who respects and loves him, this is also what makes Reni feel at home for a long time in the family home Iskandar, Iskandar, the lover was far away on another continent.


Haris poking Mutia. “That's who Tia ?”.


Mutia smiled widely. “That's her boyfriend Reni Yah, Iskandar”.


Haris nods his head. “Yang Pulungan it yes Tia ?”.


Mutia nodded her head again. “Iya Well. Iskandar Muda Pulungan”.


Just a few minutes, Iskandar's father and mother had joined the Grand family waiting outside, the conversation looked warm, all of them a big smile continuously seeing Ariana who was so sticky with her mother Iskandar, who was very happy with her, Mutia even found out that they were that close, Mutia seemed happy.


Haris seemed to have a serious conversation with Bisma Iskandar's father, especially about the clan, because indeed Haris has a long history of the clan, Bisma seemed quite enthusiastic to hear the story Haris, Bisma, sometimes both look the same as a crisp laugh, it seems the same as finding an exciting interlocutor.


“So his original brother from Sibolga Bang ?”.


Haris nods his head. “Iya Bus, but that is, only until the age of six, after that to Bandar Lampung, then to Kalimantan until now”.


Bisma smiled widely. “Actually I called this brother-in-law Bang. Adek brother is boru Nasution ini”. Obviously Bisma while glancing at his wife Naina.


“Oh yes, he did anyway. Steady it”.


The two return the same laugh, the story continues to lengthen. But Natalia, Mutia and Farhan were silent at home, there was no topic, while Iskandar Naina's mother had now moved to buy small meals with Ariana, Iskandar became a generous listener in his father's long dialogue with Haris. While Asrul is still focusing on Risda who is spoiled on him.


Towards the end of the new afternoon graduation ceremony, Reni left the room with her father and mother, no need to look for it, because since this morning everyone had agreed that they would gather here, so Agung, Meeta and Reni already knew where to go once the ceremonial graduation was over.


Reni was immediately stunned when she not only found Asrul, Risda, Mutia, Farhan and Ariana who were there, not only Haris and Natalia who surprised Reni, but also the existence of Iskandar complete with his father and mother. Reni looked embarrassed, especially not having met Iskandar for so long.


Especially if it is not a photo event, Risda who immediately became the director, initially Risda who will be directly as a photographer, but the position immediately changed when Tomy attended, Risda immediately looked at Tomy as a photographer, of course Tomy accepted it with pleasure.


Reni has been photographed with all, crowded already, with her father and mother already, with her sister and sister already, with Haris and Natalia also already, with Iskandar's father and mother also already, with, alone already, even with Tomy as well already, but there was one left, with Iskandar.


Tomy pulls Iskandar to the flower board, although new to know, Tomy is brave, Iskandar and Reni look embarrassed, almost five times Tomy gives direction style, then Tomy gets the right position, and the new Tomy, simply put, both hands Reni put on Iskandar's arm, even had toga, but Reni's height was only a boat Iskandar that was quite towering.


Iskandar and Reni looked very embarrassed, let alone their two parents being there. But this makes Asrul happy, meaning Reni and Iskandar are in a healthy relationship, both seem very clumsy, it indicates that the body's intrusion between the two is still very minimal, and the, farhan Faridha's relationship was more extraordinary than this one, Asrul was convinced by that.


Now that everyone is sitting wobbly under the tree, Meeta has deliberately brought the ambal from home for a seat, since the time of Asrul, has become a habit of this family, it is a custom, their post-graduation lunch is done this way, not any restaurant, because according to Meeta, this style is much more fun, will be an unforgettable experience.


Fortunately there was enough plate supply, Meeta yesterday provided for Lufti and Widya who claimed to want to come, but both failed to attend because her second child Gunawan arrived home this morning, so the presence of Iskandar with his father and mother is not a problem now.


Only this time the Bhishma together with the Great family, although they have often met, saw this atmosphere of Bhishma become more calm, more calm, from the beginning he was always worried about the relationship of his eldest son with Reni which had been going on since they were in High School, because Bisma knew who Reni was, college in medicine anyway, Bisma, iskandar was able to reach Australia not because of the ability of his parents, but because Iskandar managed to penetrate the full scholarship.


Agung looks relaxed and the story of eating lesehan like this, something that was never imagined by Bhishma, all this time Bhishma considers that Agung always keep the style, but what he saw today was unexpected, it turns out true what many of his friends who know Agung, many of them who assert that Agung is not a rich person responsibility, so never count his wealth.


"Lho, Bis. don't add Lu ?".


Bisma laughs. "It's already, it's been this steady".


Bisma again shook his head, really found Agung who is no different from most people, scrambling crackers with his daughter, drinking water from a glass that has been drunk by his wife, who is not different from other people, until the wife sniffed and many other things. Bhishma became full of tranquility, the awkwardness that had been lost.


Farhan actually noticed that Reni was painstakingly serving Iskandar, Reni was rather free, because the sash and toga had now been used Ariana, so that it was free to move, Farhan instead became homesick to Faridha, and so he missed it, I want Farhan to contact Faridha right now, but it doesn't feel good, because according to the clock, Faridha is currently studying in class.


"is. That's not your brother Mahdan".


Not only Iskandar, the others also turned their eyes to the one Naina pointed at. Iskandar nods his head. "Yes Ma'am, that's Bang Mahdan, why is he here".


"Call me Is".


Iskandar looked at Mutia. "Called here Brother ?".


"No. Just tell her to go home".


Iskandar smiled wryly, Iskandar immediately stood up to Mahdan who had just finished talking to someone on the terrace of the building, it seemed like it was one of the parents whose children also attended the graduation, the same as Reni.


"Bang ..".


Mahdan looked over and immediately smiled widely. "Is, what's up here ?".


Iskandar. "I want nanya, why brother here, tuh, in suru mother same Kak Mutia there".


Mahdan's forehead was slightly wrinkled, looking in the direction Iskandar pointed at. "Mutia?, doctor Mutia you mean".


Mahdan chuckled, whispering. "So long ago I liked Is. You know Mutia how ?".


Iskandar laughed. "I've been dating Reni Bang for a long time".


Now that the two were walking towards where they were all gathered, Mahdan greeted each other and strangely sat down beside Mutia, even more strangely, Mutia instead provided food to Mahdan, and the strangeness gets even stranger when Mahdan calmly eats his food, even though the one who eats only Mahdan himself, the other is done.


Oddity entered the peak phase, when Mutia thrust water into Mahdan when Mahdan finished eating, Mahdan immediately gulped it down, the empty glass not to the ambush, but returned to Mutia's hands. It turned out to be the attention of Asrul and Risda, both of them poking and nodding their heads, like seeing something there, moreover they had never seen Mutia so before.


"Mutia Bang's boyfriend ?". Risda Whisper.


Asrul. "Where do you know, just ask yourself".


"What's that thing ?". Whisper Risda again.


"Okay, oh yeah".


All eyes turned towards Asrul and Risda who were elbowed, seeing all eyes pointing at them, Asrul and Risda became misbehaved and stopped their activities. Meeta's forehead has been wrinkled in looking back at her son and daughter-in-law who she thinks needs questioning.


"Why Rul, Ris, why ?".


Asrul. "There's no Ma, where there is, here's no idea". Elak Asrul's.


"Where there is Ma, Brother who does a lot of work, less work". Risda Refutation.


Meeta already shakes her head with a smile, sometimes it is funny to see this child and daughter-in-law, likes to do as they like, likes to argue too, although it will always be Risda who wins, Asrul must always lose or succumb.


"Yes, why ?". Meeta is still curious.


Risda smiled shyly. "That's Ma, that's her brother, that's her future husband Tia kok never came home, Ma. Risda said, maybe he met in the hospital, because Risda had seen, that's". Reply Risda made up the story.


Meeta only shook her head, but Agung's eyes immediately rose and looked at Mutia and Mahdan alternately, Farhan had already giggled shut his mouth, Iskandar and Reni were also staring intently at Mutia and Mahdan, Haris, Natalia, and Reni, Bisma and Naina do the same, only Ariana remains relaxed with her phone and small meals.


Stared so that makes Mahdan and Mutia equally pale, Mahdan's heart is not necessarily how stubborn, Mutia also experienced the same thing, even so trembling a little, so, sitting them tight enough to make Mahdan feel Mutia's hand trembling, uh, Mahdan even grabbed it and squeezed slowly, unfortunately Mutia even quiet and let.


Frankly, Mahdan is certainly very grateful if it is true, Mahdan would be very happy if Mutia was really his future wife, but the fact is not, Mahdan glanced at Risda for a moment, he said, whether happy or not with that expression, but seeing the expression of Mutia, Mahdan instead hopes it really takes place for real.


"Now it's just ..".


All so staring at Farhan, even a lot complete with a nod of the head, all seemed to wait for what Farhan wanted to say, even Meeta had three head nods, even three times, I can't wait to hear what Farhan has to say.


"Come." Farhan sighed first. "The cave was only 8 months away will mo marry the same cave empress Faridha, all already in the know. That's his proposal Papa's handsome in the world, mah is okey cave, happy cave even".


Meeta frowned. "Lantas ?".


"Well, it's Ma. Mumpung two candidates are here, the cave wants to say this, this beautiful cave sister will not be lazy if the cave marriage first. Wrong you bedua dong, there is already no candidate application as well, yes no Ma ?".


Meeta gave her thumbs up. "If that's Mama agrees Far, it's best that one".


Reni whining. "Lu what the heck Far, you ask cave marriage now you mean, uh Far, cave still want to take profession times, anyways Bang Is still in Australia he, you're good, you're good, you're good, if you get married, you'll be Far".


"Bang Is is already running in Australia right Bang ?".


Iskandar nods his head. "Already Far, no longer back there brother".


"Nah Lho". Farhan is small. "Already, anyway the cave of love beautiful sister bedua, time is only six months ahead, ampe my dear Faridha UN, Okey. If not already, before long, brake first, because all must focus on the cave ama Faridha, how is Ma?, Valid ?".


Meeta is back with her thumb. "Valid's".


Reni is still shaking. "Entar used to dong, cave school profession first".


Agung chuckled, all so glanced at Agung. "No problem anyway, my mom used to be that too, take a profession after marriage, like nothing, yes Ma".


For the umpteenth time Meeta thumbs up. "Sip. Papa just know".


"Deal dong Ma ?". Still Farhan.


"Deal". Meeta is back with her thumb.


Farhan even shaman with Meeta is like that TV show. Asrul and Risda had shaken long since then, especially Risda who felt that she had eaten her own words, Risda did not expect her reaction to be like this, she said, but hearing there is hope Mutia and Reni will get married in the near future brings excitement as well for Risda.


The bisma who had just heard while confused, had already shook his head too much, but seeing Farhan's spirit which even had the full support of his father and mother made Bisma sigh long, long, he pokes his wife, then the two share a nod.


"Yes Mas Gung, Sister Meeta. When can we visit". Bisma finally spoke.


Grand Smile and Meeta instantly widened. Agung patted the thigh of Bisma who was sitting next to him. "The door of the house is always open Bus, there is no time rule, anytime please visit, we wait".


"Ready Mas, ready". Firm Bisma.


Agung held up his thumb. “We are waiting for Bis”.


Bisma back nods her head. “Siap Mas, ready”.


Everything seemed to be a big smile, there was a lot of happiness in the eyes of everyone, Meeta was also experiencing the same thing, her smile was so fluffy it was perfect.


But Mutia and Mahdan are not for a smile. The two looked at each other and similarly shook their heads, not knowing what to say. Fortunately the topic changed quickly, so Mahdan and Mutia could return a little calm, even though the calm was just outside, each heart had not at all wanted to move normally.
