Melati receives an envelope from a foreign man shortly after delivering Hasna to campus for a freshman orientation the first day. Yes today his daughter entered his favorite university.
" Excuse me, is this with Miss Melati?"
" Yes myself, what's wrong?"
The stranger handed him a brown envelope and left.
" Wait ... Wait a minute ... "
The stranger ignored the jasmine call and continued to run away. Melati resigned, he could not pursue the man. Melati went back inside the house and sat on the living room sofa. He opened the envelope.
Deg ...
Melati's heart beats violently when she sees the contents of that envelope. There are many photos of her that she knows is her husband. But Melati really does not know who the picture of women and girls. Tests, Melati's tears immediately shed when she found a picture of her husband sitting with a woman wearing a white kebaya. He knew it was a wedding ceremony.
Jasmine sat on the floor, she cried as she pleased. But as fast as lightning, he wiped away his tears.
Melati then took her cell phone and contacted someone.
" Assalamaluaikum mbak . "
" Mel Waalaikumsalm, why?"
" Mom can we meet."
" absolutely. Now?"
" Yes ... "
Melati snatched back outside the house and locked the door. He took a deep breath and threw it away slowly.
" Okay, I gotta be strong."
Brummmm
Melati drove her car to where she wanted to meet someone. In about 30 minutes, Melati had already reached that place. The person he was waiting for appeared to have arrived first.
" That's how it's been up to before."
" It just so happened to fit around here Mel."
The two kiss each other on the left right cheek and cuddle . Jasmine hugged the person in front of her tightly. The person felt something a little wrong in the friend but he did not want to ask more before Melati told him first.
" So, can I ask for something."
" What the hell is Mel, I think it's really nervous."
Melati sighed and smiled at her best friend. He shook slowly.
" No mbak. There's nothing. Ma'am, can you keep Hasna for me."
" you mean? Where are you going hmm? "
" Where not. I just want Hasna to be in the middle of a family that many people like the Sekar family. Make it in the daughter-in-law for one of your sons."
A little surprised to get the matchmaking request. But he smiled and then nodded.
" Yes all right. I've wanted to say this for a long time. I also wish we could make a reservation."
Melati was very happy to hear the words of Sekar. He took his best friend's hand and held it tight.
" Thank you mbak."
The two talked a lot until they said goodbye to each other.
" It's time to confirm the truth."
Melati rushed straight to the house of the woman she considered her husband's second wife. Armed with an address in the envelope and a gps signal he was desperate to come there. Whether all this has been arranged or not, but today is really right when Hasna stayed at her campus and Yudi was in one of the branches of the shopping center for children. Yudi also today certainly did not go home.
Throughout the journey Melati was filled with many questions. Many times he held tightness in his chest.
Until he really arrived at the area of the house owned by the woman in the photo. Tired of travel is not a problem because what he currently needs is an explanation.
Melati got out of the car and asked a resident there.
" Ooh the house of Neng Priska. That's tea. The teteh straight well there's a t-junction teteh his turn to the left of the house neng priska number three from after the turn."
" Thank you very much, ma'am."
'' tea is the same."
Melati got back in the car. The beautiful woman then drove her car according to the direction of the mother she met.
Ckiiit, he stopped right at house number 3 after the T-junction. Melati took her breath in deeply and threw it away slowly. He really strengthened himself to meet his honey. Although nothing was certain yet seeing the photo was enough to make him understand.
Walk out of the car and get closer to the yard. He saw a woman younger than him picking up clothes that appeared to be dry.
" Assalamualaikum, excuse me."
" Waalaikumsalam's. Yes, there's something I can help you with."
Deg ...
Jasmine's heart feels so fast pumping. He saw the woman in front of him was exactly the same as the woman in the photo. Melati a little dazed, but he tried to be able to control his body.
" Are you really Yudi's wife?"
Melati does not want to linger long curious. He must know immediately who the woman is. Even though it was very painful, he had to deal with it.
" Yes, my wife is Yudi. Who is it."
Glegal ...
Melati was really shocked, even though she already felt so but the confession of the woman in front of her really made her surprised.
" I'm Yudi's legitimate wife."
The woman immediately looked down and smiled. He showed a wry smile.
" Ooh this must be Melati. Sorry about mbak. I'm really sorry to be such a bully between you guys."
" Tell me what happened."
" Let's sit inside."
Melati shook her head, I mean it's very hard to step.
" Good then, it's been going on for a very long time. At that time, Yudi was KKN here. And after about 3 weeks Mas Yudi forced me to do that. Me, I really don't know. Hixes. Yudi already has a wife. I'm really sorry, madam."
Melati was heartbroken when she heard Priska's explanation. But he tried to stay calm.
" Well, I understand."
" Ma ... "
A little girl approached them. Melati has shot it must be Priska and Yudi's daughter.
" Salim's the same aunt."
The girl grabbed Melati's hand and kissed her. Melati immediately hugged the little girl. Then I looked at Priska.
" If you want to and want to come to town J."
" Thank you, but don't. Yudi forbade us to go there. Ren, go in first, son. Mama still wants to talk to auntie."
The little girl nodded obediently and passed into the house. Melati looked compassionately at the girl.
" Mr Melati, let's go inside."
" No need Pris, I have to go home soon. I'm talking really. You come to J. I invited."
" Thank you I'll try to think about it."
Melati turned around and got straight into the car. He did not know that Priska was grinning.
" Yes, I'll come after you no longer have hahahah."
