Chapter 46
"Sir Arga?" A simple-looking man greeted, as they walked outside the public funeral complex.
Arga doesn't really remember the man. However, he received his hand.
"Sorry, I forgot ... who, huh?" ask Arga.
"Me, Gunawan. You forget" replied the man.
Arga remembers to his friend Sakti. People who often play and sometimes stay at their parents' homes. The young man who often works odd jobs at his home for school fees he and his two younger siblings. The man was kind and polite so his mother often gave him more money.
"O Allah, forgive me for forgetting you. How are you doing?" ask Arga.
"Yes, this is how it is to live in the village, Brother," replied Gunawan while shrugging both shoulders.
"Mr Marsha, how are you?" gunawan asked as he looked at the woman.
"Alhamdulillah, fine," Marsha replied while bowing her gaze.
Gunawan is one of the workers who work for Bagas. The man worked as a truck driver who would deliver vegetables and fruits to various cities.
"Where are you going?" ask Arga.
"You're meeting Sakti. I often come here if I am free," replied Gunawan.
They split up because Alva wanted to go play and buy ice cream. During the return trip only the boy continued to babble and occasionally Arga or Marsha responded.

During the holidays in the village Arga spent time with Alva and sometimes Marsha also participated if not therapy. The development of Marsha's health to be able to walk normally, very quickly. Before Arga returned to the city, the woman was already able to walk smoothly without using crutches. He could even run after Alva.
"Take care of yourself, huh? If anything, call me" Arga told Marsha and Alva.
The little boy was crying to come with Arga. Although last night they had slept together, plus spent swimming at times until noon, for Alva was not satisfied playing with him. If he does not remember the responsibility for his work, it seems he is also reluctant to return to the city.
He deliberately came to Bagas house to say goodbye. Before leaving he wants to meet his baby and his heart.
"I hope you can take good care of yourself. If you feel longed and want to see my handsome face, do a video call," whispered Arga to Marsha.
The woman turned her face away. Upset because the man was often teasing and flirting.
"Just the woman. I'm sure he won't let you go until at any time" Marsha replied.
A big smile adorned Arga's face. She was happy because Marsha was jealous, this was what was inside the man's mind. It was clear from the woman's eyes.
"I'll make sure there's only you in my heart right now. There is no other woman. Like you said, I'll finish my business with Valerie" Arga said solemnly.
"Basic of a mongrel! I don't need."
There was a tremor in his heart that Marsha felt. Although he was upset and unwilling to admit, if only Arga could make it like this. However, he was unsure of his future with the man.
Bagas and Indah can only pray for Arga's safety on the way home. Both of their families knew about the divorce. No one's bothered. If they are in a match, they will re-knit the wedding ropes. It was not the intention of the two men toying with marriage. All of this was originally the fault of their parents who forced Arga to marry a pregnant Marsha. Nor will they be opposed if one day Arga and Marsha want to bond in marriage. However, if Marsha does not want to, then Arga does not force her.

Monday morning Arga went into the office. He was welcomed by Pandu. The two friends talked before starting work. Suddenly the door opened violently. It appears there's Mariana coming with a hunting breath. The woman's face looked pale.
"Arga, sister Valerie had an accident. I just found out, 'cause I left for work from the apartment. Right now it's on its way to the hospital" said the sexy-looking woman who will make men think wildly.
"Then, why did you come to my room instead of going to the hospital?" reply Arga in a annoyed tone.
"Because Miss Valerie was in an accident while going to your hometown, Arga?" mariana shouted in annoyance.
"Do you want him to come to my hometown?" asked Arga with a bit of surprise.
