Chapter 1 MEETING
A scorching day of the scorching sun.
In a state of chaos, a girl throws ketapang seeds into the sea, her cellphone rings a song from the Dadali Band.
I miss you so much.
It feels like you're still beside me.
The girl didn't answer her cell phone which kept ringing. He lifted his face to the sky and enjoyed the breeze blowing against him.
He sat on a stretch of white sand while sitting languishing with his arms wrapped around his legs.
"Rina ... why is the situation like this," he complained. Tears welled up in her eyes and fell down her cheeks.
This beautiful girl with a yellow hijab lamented her fate.
"Please... Mom, pity your daughter, this... I don't like Dirga at all, he's not a good young man. Why? Why?!!" she shouted.
"Oh, Allah help me. I don't agree to marry Dirga. ...." Rina daydreams again. Soon he stood up from his place, walked back to the Abdi Family Hospital, Makassar. His steps stopped, his eyes widened and he backed away and hid.
He looked at the middle-aged woman who was none other than his beloved Mother. Her mother was standing at the hospital gate and was chatting with a doctor who was already in the car, Riana hid behind the gate. "What are you doing, Mother? Why is it so serious! Heh ... how can I marry the younger brother of the person I love. Eza is my heart's dream." Rina grumbled annoyed and sad.
"Hi...." Eza stopped the car, Rina was very surprised. His heart almost slipped out of place, he still felt an uncontrollable thumping.
"Hurry in!" Eza ordered without looking at Rina. Rina was so confused she stayed where she was. The mother came and immediately put Rina into the car.
Rina's eyes filled with tears, "What else is this?" he asked himself.
Rina obeyed her mother's wishes, she sat in the front seat, Mother whispered.
"Listen! You will choose the wedding dress, your wedding day and Dirga have been set and Doctor Eza will also be married on the same day as you, your father's clothes and copy are in the back seat, please wash them," his mother explained in a whisper, her chest heaving and could only hold back. all the sad feelings His mother closed the door with a smile.
Eza smiled back, then stepped on the gas pedal of her car. The car is moving at a moderate speed.
"Oh Allah, I can't do anything... getting married on the same day? Astagfirullah... father hasn't come home, the marriage has been set. Forced difficulty level. Huh...." he thought.
Rina plays the game, she tries to ignore the man beside her.
Eza is also cool alone by covering both ears by listening to music through a headset.
They had already traveled an hour. Makassar's official place to Eza's house is a two-hour journey. They arrived at a neighboring village. You know, he works in the city and Mr. Rina is being treated at the city hospital.
No conversation, silent and busy alone. Rina's heart was churning but she didn't want to do anything silly again. Which would embarrass him.
Azan Asar sounded, Eza parked the car, then got off and entered the mosque. Rina pretends to not care, but her eyes just want to see the man she loves and will become her sister-in-law.
"This is how my heart hurts. Oh, love ... why are you torturing. After four years of not seeing her why am I bound to her again. Mother too, why don't you understand my feelings. Unrequited love is normal but, if you marry someone's sister, what about the loved one? Sob...sob hekhek, est...so sad." Rina looked out the glass, on each side of the road was the coast and behind the other road, there was a plateau.
Eza got into the car and drove back the car. Silent without a word like someone who doesn't know. Eza's cellphone rang a call from her lover. A very happy face.
Rina couldn't help but hear their romantic voices. Rina suppressed the roar of jealousy that bloomed, she blew her palm.
"Yes, less than an hour, have you eaten? On your wedding day, you must be healthy. Yes. Alright. Yes. I have eaten. Oh yes, we have the same reception as Dirga, do you agree? Sorry, this is sudden, I don't know Mother suddenly married Dirga. I also haven't talked to Dirga, but the girl's mother has determined that it means my mother too." Eza said at length, Rina felt unable to remember her mother's treatment.
"It is certain that Sis Eza's opinion about Mother is very mature. Yes, it is! It is outrageous, not worth it, people are easily despised because they don't know. Mother is a noble name, but with her attitude, she looks despicable and has no self-respect," he cursed in then take a tissue.
"Honey...." Eza teased his future wife. Rina irritatedly played her lips disapprovingly, she took a tissue.
"O Allah... all this time I have harbored feelings, even though I can't keep my secrets. I'm not ashamed to admit my feelings when I was in high school. I sent a love letter and at that time he countered my feelings. Sending love letters, letters of admiration. Yes Robb I ask and if you can, erase my feelings. I don't want to love him anymore. I am indeed strange, very strange sometimes I hate myself. As much as possible I forget. I still can't, even though I didn't recognize him yesterday, but every time I meet my heart, my heart I can't control it. I'm in the worst situation. Rina doesn't cry, Rina...."
Her heart filled as he looked outside so that his tears were held back.
