Being Married to My First Love
Season2. Whispers in the ears

Hey you, stop!!" exciting Parlan.

Lala who was about to leave, finally stopped her steps. Parlan then approached towards Lala standing up.

"Hehh, where have you never been home?" ask Parlan.

"A-I work Uncle," Lala replied with a tremble.

"Work!? Haha ...!" Parlan laughed out loud at Lala's reasoning. "What is your salary? Want to be babu for years also will not be able to cuddle money to pay the debt bokap lo!" added again.

"Yes Lala knows, Uncle. I will definitely pay for it soon if the money has been collected," Lala said grudgingly in her face.

"Now you've got your money, your mother's very stingy to share it with me!" Parlan grabbed the sling bag Lala was using and forcibly took the wallet inside.

"P-Uncle, not everything! Please leave a little for Lala, Uncle!" Lala tried to hold back, but was unable to resist. All he could do was lament his fate of having a depraved uncle like Parlan.

Lala's father is Parlan's older brother. Her father had died three years ago and left behind a lot of debt. During his life the actions of Lala's father were not much different from Parlan who spent his time gambling and drinking hard.

His mother was the one who had to work hard to meet daily needs and finance Lala's school. Lala's mother worked as a laundry laborer in her village. Gradually began to emerge laundry services, so that washing labor services are increasingly eliminated. Lala's mother eventually switched professions to become a domestic assistant.

Life is getting tougher for Lala, because she has to be away from her mother. Because his mother had to live in his employer's house. While the environment where he lived, most were people who did misperse. Many children who have dropped out of school and choose to be punk children who like to busk in the streets, and of them also many whose activities lead to negative things.

Lala, then decided to quit school due to cost constraints and chose to work to support her own needs as well as to repay the inheritance debt from her father. Of course, it is also for the sake of his peace, can get out of his residence whose environment is mostly a class of gamblers and criminals.

"Breaks!" parlan said as he emptied his wallet and took all the contents, "If it wasn't for me, you would have run out in Mr. Baskoro's hands. Know lo!" he added.

Lala began to sob with her uncle's behavior, but she could only remain silent without doing anything.

Parlan passed by leaving Lala speechless with tears on her cheeks.

Reyna moved closer to Lala. "Are you okay, La?"

"I'm okay, Ma'am. Come on, let's go home now!" Lala wiped her tears, then took Reyna by the hand and walked towards the car park.

Arriving in the car, Dipa immediately started her car engine and drove away from the place.

"Reyn, when are you going to report him to the police station? With the photo I took earlier-the police will be easier to catch him. Moreover, Lala knows the person," said Dipa.

"It should be soon, so as not to lose track of him again. Sorry, Dip? Because of that your life is in danger-even your money has taken away all." Reyna felt guilty.

"The cash is not much, Reyn. Just relax!" dipa said, "What if I get you a report tomorrow at the police station?"

"Tomorrow?" Reyna thought for a moment. "okay, Dip. Tomorrow we go to the police station. Thanks a lot, Dip. You've helped me too much."

"Together, Reyn!"

***

The next day Reyna goes to the police station to report Parlan. Reyna told Reza that too. Police immediately searched the report. However, Parlan is unknown whereabouts. He no longer comes to the square where he hangs out and when the police come to the address of the house that Lala gave, it turns out Parlan was also not found in his house. Neighbors said Parlan had not been seen in his home for nearly a week.

Reyna becomes frustrated again, as Parlan is not found. At least by arresting Parlan she knew who the mastermind who had the heart to plan the murder that had claimed the life of her husband.

The next day Reza came from Jakarta with his wife. It became a meeting place also for them after almost seven months did not meet.

Lena looked at her grandson. Reynand's face is very similar to Rangga's. Lena held the boy and kissed him on his face until Reynand cried. The terrified Reynand thrashed around wanting to be taken down from her sling and turned into the arms of her great-grandmother. Reynand was not used to it. But when Reza tried to hold him Reynand just fell silent while looking at his open face.

"Reynand, why shut up, son?" reza.

"Have any men ever carried her, Ma?" ask Lena to try to look around.

"There, her name is Dipa. Reyna's friend," said the grandmother.

"Is it possible that Reynand still feels alien to the figure of a man?" lena said she was sad to see her grandson who had to grow up without the affection of a father, "What a pity your fate is, son."

Reyna who witnessed it from the door of her room was also moved.

If only you were still in our midst, By. This family will be complete with you ....

You should have seen how it grew, By. Your son needs your love. I miss you so much too, By ... ! Missing your laughter, your attention, everything about you. I'm weak without you, By! reyna's mind was claustrophobic considering all the memories that had been twisted, about the days that he had gone through together with Rangga.

Reyna closed the door and sobbed behind the door of her room. His body slumped and sat on the floor hugging his legs which were unable to support his weakened body. Beautiful memories that were once engraved when together with Rangga sprung up in his mind.

🎶🎶

I am weak without you

I am vulnerable because

The love that is missing from you

Who can flatter me

As long as the eyes are open

Until the heart doesn't beat

For as long as I can remember you ....

From you I found my life

To me you are true love ....

When it is written to me

Is the best for you

I'll make you a memory

The most beautiful thing in my life

But it won't be easy for me

Leaving traces of your life

Which is immortal engraved

As the most beautiful memories ....

🎶🎶

"Abiyu is here? Why not come in?" ask grandma.

"Yes, it's in front, Ma. He said he'd talk at the cafe. I'm leaving first, Assalamu'alaikum!" Reza left the house.

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Poor Abiyu ..." said grandma.

"What's the matter, Ma?" ask Lena who doesn't understand.

"Ehm .. It's nothing!" call grandma, "La, please call Reyna. It's night time for Reynand to sleep!" grandma's word when she realized the clock on the wall showed the number eight on her short needle.

"Yes, Grandma!" Lala walked towards Reyna's room.

Arriving in front of Reyna's room, Lala hesitated as she was about to knock on the door. There was sobbing from behind Reyna's door. Lala thinks Reyna is crying. Lala fell silent while scratching her non-itchy head. Confused about having to call Reyna or not. Lala finally returned to the living room.

"Why stay there, where's Reyna?" grandma asked when she saw Lala just quietly in the corner of the room near the door.

Lala stepped closer towards grandma. "Sir Reyna seems to be on her own, Grandma!" lala said with a voice lowered.

"Wanted to be alone? Meanin?" ask Lena who doesn't understand.

"Sir Reyna, it seems to be sad. I accidentally heard her sobs on the doorstep ...."

Lena and Grandma looked at each other with sad eyes. They can guess what's going on with Reyna.

"Let me put Reynand to bed, Grandma!" Lala asked permission politely.

"Alright, take Reynand with you ...."

Lala took Reynand from Grandma's lap. He was used to taking care of Reynand, so Lala became memorized by the child's habits. Reynand immediately welcomed a helping hand from Lala with her little fingers outstretched. Just a few times swung Reynand was already asleep in Lala's arms.

Later that night, Reynand is taken to sleep in her room. After laying Reynand down on her bed, Lala returned to her desk. Lala has been attending school for two months with the help of Reyna. On the sidelines of studying, Lala took the time to write an online novel.

His lonely life without any siblings and lack of affection from his parents, make Lala fond of the world. From the beginning of being a reader, now he is trying his ability to write novels on one of the online novel application platforms. From writing, he can channel the ideas that are in his head. Even though he was only a country boy and the son of a man had no but Lala had a strong desire to flap her wings as high as possible.

It is not easy indeed, because still a beginner Lala does not get much support from readers. But Lala did not give up. He was sure that all the hard work would have a result.

Tok to tok.

The sound of a knock on the door made him stop his activity typing his work.

"Lake in!" lala said as she looked towards the door.

Reyna was behind the door.

"Reynand's the same as you, La?" Reyna went inside and saw that her son was asleep. "Thank you, La? Sorry to always bother you!" he added while sitting on the edge of the mattress.

"No bother, Ma'am. Reynand was easy to sleep with. Just a little while I was asleep," said Lala while turning to face Reyna, "Mbak Reyna just slept, Ma'am. Later if Reynand wakes up I'll take her to Ma'am's room, huh!"

Reyna just kept quiet while looking through Lala's room. The room is simple, but looks clean and tidy.

"You're studying, La?" ask Reyna.

"No, Ma'am. I'm just making a novel, Ma'am!" lala.

"Well, that's good, La. I also like to read novels. Use your youth for positive things. Give a good message from your writings. A kindness will surely bring blessing."

"Yes, Mother. Thank you, the support. Still my rookie, Ma'am. So far the finger count of Mbak, who read. Hhehehe ...."

"Don't give up, it's just the beginning. The success starts from persistent effort and falls awake when you reach for it. One more thing, involve God in every step of your life. You don't have to worry if anyone belittles, blasphemes, and cheats you. All evil intentions will go back to the person himself. When your good intentions are not considered or ignored, there is no need to be discouraged. Let Allah repay your kindness in his own way. Who sows will surely eat it."

Lala was aghast at the words of advice from Reyna who seemed to know about the intricacies of the pestilent world she now wrestled with. "Mbak Reyna don't-don't be a writer too, huh?" lala asked in astonishment.

"Emm .. could be. Hhhahaha ... !" Reyna laughed ambiguously. "Bak wants to go back to the room first, La. Later if Reynand wakes up take him to the room. Don't be so self-exciting - take care of your health!"

Reyna breezed out of Lala's room without giving Lala a chance to answer her words.

"Sir Reyna, just be curious!" lala said shortly after Reyna passed. Later, Lala went on to type her novel work.

The clock on the wall shows at 00.30 WIB. Lala just finished completing a chapter to upload her. His busy waking up who had to complete his duties as a domestic assistant at Reyna's house, then went to school until noon, and when he came home, he had to return to work again as an ART, make it must be clever to divide the time.

Finally, he often had to chase with deadlines to upload episodes of his dinovel. All for the sake of satisfying readers who have been waiting for the continuation of the story. Even so, it became a pleasure in itself for him. Because, by writing it is able to pour out all the expectations that he can not realize in the real world can be realized in his natural world.

Right at that moment, Reynand seemed to be squirming. Then, Lala approached the child and held him as the child began to cry.

"Dek Nand woke up, huh? Let's go to mama, yuk!" Lala carries Reynand to Reyna's room.

Before Lala knocked on Reyna's door, it opened on its own and revealed Reyna from behind the door. Apparently Reyna heard Reynand crying and was about to come to her son.

"Wake up, okay?" reyna said as her hand stretched out to take Reynand from Lala's sling, "Please, La!"

"Yes, Mother. I went back to the room, huh?"

"Yes, La. Good night!"

"Good night, Ma'am!" Lala passed towards returning to her room.

Reyna then closes the door and sits down on the sofa to breastfeed baby Reynand. Once satisfied, the child fell asleep again. Baby Reynand is placed in her baby box. After that Reyna went to the toilet and took water for ablution. Later, Reyna wore her mukenya to perform tahajud prayers. After performing the prayer Reyna to his bed and lay himself up there.

Shortly after she fell asleep, Reyna seemed to be lulled with comfort in her sleep, when she felt a soft touch above her head, stroking her hair that decomposed to her shoulders. A brief kiss landed on his forehead and felt warm. Then, a whisper was heard in his ear.

"Darling, didn't you promise you'd always be happy!" after a few seconds of pause, the whisper again said, "From now on, please let me go--and welcome him ...!"
