"Why don't you get angry when my mother insults your status?."Bima asked while licking her ice cream.

"For what?, indeed the reality is like that, sometimes the words of others are difficult for us to accept, but we have to correct ourselves again, because maybe they are talking about the Facts." Farah.

"Lagian Bu Amber didn't insult me, she just reminded my widowed status father" Farah said.

"Sir, what's wrong?" Ask Farah.

"Farah, Mr. Ramli is dead." Brams said, Farah closed in surprise, she covered her mouth with her hands.

"Didn't you start to be healthy, why did you die." Farah.

"Don't know, Brother's condition weakened yesterday, when did you come home?." Ask Brams.

Farah nodded for a moment. "Later I'll let you go with my boss, brother, maybe today I'll go home."Farah.

"Alright, don't forget to call" Brams said before closing her phone.

Farah was already unable to sleep back, she was in lema and was afraid and anxious if she came home, maybe Sumi would re-force her, she said, and it's possible that Ms. Sumi has not wanted to see herself since yesterday.

"How else, that's the father of Bayu." Farah.

"Yes, but we keep saying yes." Windi. Farah nodded with her small smile.

The clock shows at 8, Bima was surprised when he came and had not seen any Farah on his desk.he also thought Farah would be a bit late, he entered his room.

Somewhere else.

Farah was in a Taxi heading to the office, he intended to ask permission directly to Bima because there was an urgent need.

When Farah reached the office, she knocked on Bima's door and entered after that. Bima looked at Farah in surprise because Farah was not wearing an office shirt, while Farah looked shocked when she saw Mr. Beni in Bima's room.

"For Mr. Beni." Sapa Farah's.

"For Farah, I've been waiting for you, there's something I want to talk about, but as for you today it doesn't work or how?." mr. Beni was also astonished to see Farah wearing a regular t-shirt and long jeans.

"Yes, sir, I actually want the same permission from Mr. Bima to return to Jakarta "Reply Farah.

"What's up?." Ask Bima.

"Yes, what's the matter Farah, all of a sudden?." Ask Beni too.

"The father of my husband's alm died sir." said Fatah.

Mr. Beji and Bima looked at each other. "You're so sorry Farah." Reply sir Beni. Farah nodded.

"Then, Bima must come with you home, all in order to get to know your Family More."Said Mr. Beni.

Farah looked at Bima as if she wanted to ask what she had to answer, but Bima did not give any reaction.

"Yes Bim, cook you let your girlfriend go home alone."Said Mr. Beni.

Bima who was silent nodded her head. Farah took a heavy breath slowly, what she had to explain was that Bima was right to come with her and meet her extended family.

Bima actually did not want to come, but he felt sorry for Farah if she was asked to get married by her mother-in-law.
