"Anisa's close to Ray?" rina asked as they were on their way to Arya's parents' house, while the tired-playing Star seemed to be asleep on the back bench.
"No. My family and his family are close, his house is also not far from the abi house, so since childhood he often plays home," Arya replied as she continued to focus on the road in front of him which was slightly jammed, the workers started to go home.
"Oh, so is it true that you guys are little friends?" Rina seemed to nod her head while turning her eyes on the street ahead.
Arya who saw the change in reaction of Rina immediately turned to the lover, she took the hand of Rina who was in the lap while smiling sincerely.
Lina who was surprised at Arya's attitude seemed to glance at the man beside her with a face that was still lazy.
"Why, hem? You jealous?" asked Anjas while raising his eyebrows. Teasing the lover.
"Ck, what the hell. No, why am I jealous, instead of now liking me?" Rina seemed to take her eyes back to make Arya chuckle lightly.
"Focus on the streets, why see me?" rina said again when she saw Arya even continued to look at her with a smile that never faded, even though the streets were crowded and slightly faltered.
"Well, how dong, I can't take my eyes off the beautiful woman beside me" Arya lamented, slightly tempting Rina. The man really took advantage of the situation that was jammed.
"Don't worry, you're driving!" Rina held onto Arya's cheek then took her to look straight ahead.
"Ah, my eyes can't focus, how dong?" sigh Arya again as she glanced back at Rina with a small ruckus accompanying her words.
"Doctor Arya!" angry Rina though actually she also felt happy with Arya's attitude to her.
However, not for now, because their true status had no clarity at all, other than just speech. Rina must distance Arya, before there is a legal and religious marriage contract. The woman did not want to get back stuck in the same problem as before.
Arya's laughter exploded upon hearing the lover's cold voice.
"Yes yes, this is me focusing on the road, baby," Arya said as she turned her attention to the street in front of her.
Until a while later Arya's car began to enter the yard of a two-story house that is quite large.
"This is abi and ummi's house?" asked Rina while circulating her gaze, watching around the house that looked neatly arranged, to look so beautiful.
"Yes, ummi likes flowers, so it's no wonder that the yard has been planted with the same ummi flowers" Arya replied while focusing on parking the car next to Ray's car.
Rina just nods her head slowly while continuing to look around, she is quite interested in the flower plants there that look so grassy.
Rina and Arya walk together towards the house, with Arya holding the Star like a koala child. The boy seemed to be so exhausted that he fell asleep.
"Sit down, I take Bingang to the room first," Arya said as soon as they entered the house and let Rina sit on the family room bench with the others.
Rina nodded then sat down on one of the couches that were there along with abi, ummi, Ray and Anisa, although her heart felt heavy to be left behind by Arya.
"Abi, Ummi, Arya interstellar to the room first," Arya said to her parents who were immediately taken by them.
True indeed said Heni, the Star is easily accepted by the Aryan family. The child is even now very close to Ray and also ummi who actually has not given blessing to the relationship of Arya and Rina.
Rina seemed to be sitting awkwardly, she only paid attention to the chatter of the entire Arya and Anisa family, with no gap to come along to talk. Ummi seemed to open his voice first to ask him.
"Have you known Arya for a long time?" tanya ummi, which made Rina quite surprised.
"Already, Auntie," nods Rina.
"Don't call Auntie, just call ummi, same as the others" said Ummi, which made Rina look at the face of ummi, even though it only lasted a few seconds.
"Yes, Ummi," nodded after Rina.
Ummi smiled looking at the nervous looking Rina. Because since they were busy moving home, Rina had not had time to chat with Ummi or abi.
"If ummi can know, why can you divorce your husband?" ask ummi directly. Although the ummi voice still sounded soft, but the question made Lina surprised until she looked pale and nervous.
"Ummi-" Abi appeared to warn his wife.
"Ummi just wanted to know, Abi," replied Ummi slightly objecting to the warning from her husband.
Rina briefly turned her gaze to Abi, when the sixty-five-year-old man gave a warning to ummi.
"We got divorced because --" Rina breathed softly as she saw Arya coming, thus distracting the people who were there.
"What are you talking about, how serious are you?" asked Arya while sitting next to Rina, making Lina feel calmer.
After Arya's arrival, ummi seems reluctant to discuss her past again. They only talk lightly while enjoying tea and coffee. Until finally they walked to their respective rooms, to rest there, before later meeting again at the magrib prayer time.
.
Meanwhile, elsewhere, Anjas began to untangle his embrace to Tari when he felt his wife was calmer, and he pointed her cheek to look her in the eye.
"If I'm being honest and telling all the stories behind my relationship with Rina, can we trust her?" asked Anjas in a soft voice.
At first she is reluctant to tell her story with Rina on Tari, considering that it will make Tari's heart hurt many times over from now on.
However, seeing the situation getting more complicated with the attitude of Dance who was too tough to compete in front of Rina was also stubborn, making her have no other way to temper the hatred of Dance on Rina, in addition to telling the story of both of them.
Fine wrinkles are seen adorning the forehead of Dance, the woman who just muffled her cries is now looking at her husband with confused eyes.
"What do you mean, Mom? You want to defend that cheap lady?!" tanya Tari, still believed in her belief all along, that it was Rina who had seduced Anjas and snatched Anjas from him.
"I won't defend her, all the decisions and judgments I'll leave to you, after you've heard and thought through my and Rina's stories that not many people know about," anjas replied in a soft voice. The man was trying not to be provoked by his wife's suspicions.
Dance seemed silent, she tried to find the gap and the answer to so many questions that were now gathered in her heart from the eyes of her husband. Questions that until now he was afraid to express because he could not if until the answer would again hurt his self-esteem.
"I'll tell you, if you promise not to interrupt. Whatever you will hear later is a reality, without any intention to defend either of you or Rina," Anjas continued.
"All decisions are with you now. Want to hear and believe what I say later, or stay in this situation and embarrass yourself."
Anjas took his hand off the wife's face, gently rubbed the hair on the top of her head with a thin smile that now felt sincere to Tari, then re-enforced her body while waiting for an answer from Tari.
