Since last night's fight, Candra and Bu Maya have still not made up. But even so, early in the morning Candra still helps her Mama cook for their breakfast. This time the atmosphere of the kitchen was very quiet, the two of them had not opened the slightest sound. Actually Candra was surprised by Bu Maya who was crazy about the soap opera.
“Mana, let Candra fried,” said Candra took over the chicken meat that was about to be fried.
Bu Maya did not answer, but he gave a container containing chicken that had been seasoned by spices Bu Maya concoction itself.
Meanwhile, Maya started cooking vegetables. Candra turned on the stove and poured cooking oil in the pan that was hot enough, now she just waited for the oil to heat up.
“Mama is still angry?” asked Candra, she also actually did not feel at home for a long break from talking to the mother.
But Bu Maya just remained silent to make Candra exhale. Seeing the oil that was already hot, Candra also put the chicken pieces into the hot oil.
“Later Candra Temenin watch Bond of Love deh,” said Candra again.
Bu Maya glanced at her daughter. “That's a little gedein fire, let the chicken can crisp.”
Candra put on a smile hearing Bu Maya say so. It means that her mother is no longer angry with her. Candra complied and raised her fire, and she waited until the chicken was brown.
“Papa not awake?” ask Candra.
“Not yet, last night stay up to watch the ball like,” replied Bu Maya, her hands were busy stirring the vegetable lodeh that was soon cooked.
Candra simply nodded and refocused on her cooking. A few minutes later, Candra and Bu Maya's cooking matured. Candra helped Bu Maya arrange the dish on the dining table.
“You have breakfast first, Mama wants to wake up Papa,” said Bu Maya and stepped into the family room.
Without any more babibu, Candra immediately took the plate and filled it with rice along with the newly cooked side dishes. The woman really enjoyed the cuisine of Bu Maya, Candra has not eaten the cuisine of the mother for a long time. He misses the taste of Bu Maya's cooking. Not long after, Mr. Haris and Ms. Maya joined the dining table. They also had breakfast together.
After finishing breakfast and Candra washes the cookware and cutlery, she is now relaxing in the living room with the television on. Juno had not called him this morning, whether he was awake or not. But after seeing the clock on the wall, Candra was sure that her husband had started his activities.
“Most already builtin the Yayan,” muttered Candra, his hand grabbed the television remote and looking for a good show channel.
Most of the shows on the current hour are morning news, almost all television channels broadcast the news. But Candra's hand stopped on a channel that was reporting suicide victims. Candra's eyes rounded as soon as she read the victim's name as well as the address of the residence along with the history of the victim. Instantly Candra's trembling hand held the television remote, not expecting the news.
“Why are you, Can?” asked Bu Maya who saw her daughter silently staring with eyes focused on the television screen.
“Ma, Be... Bella committed suicide,” replied Candra stammered, now she looked at Bu Maya who was frowning.
“Bella? She who? Your friend?”
Candra shook her head, then her hand grabbed the phone. He wanted to ask the truth of the news in Candra's heart to pray if the news was not true. After the incident, there was no news of Bella. The woman, like being swallowed by the earth, suddenly disappeared without news. Previously Candra thought that Bella had given up chasing Juno. But after seeing the news, Candra became doubtful. Although he still does not know the cause of Bella can do reckless like that.
This is where Candra is now, a house that Candra had visited some time ago. Now the house is crowded visited by people dressed all in black. The news about Bella turned out to be true, Sari also already knew about it. Even Juno also knew that, the man admitted that he had been chatted by Bella the day before the woman did reckless.
“Later to tell you, Yang. I don't want you to be burdened.” Juno wrote in a chat this morning.
Candra and Bu Maya walk into the house. Inside there was Mr. Firman's wife and some of Bella's brothers, and in the middle of them lay Bella's body that had been stretched rigidly covered with batik cloth. Mr. Firman refused to perform an outopsy on his daughter's body. Candra touched the shoulder of Mr. Firman's wife slowly, she cried bitterly.
“I'm sorry, Mom,” said Candra.
“Thank you. Forgive Bella all this time, all this is my fault and my husband. We shouldn't have been too tight on Bella. As a result Bella becomes uncontrollable and likes to be reckless.”
“Iya, I heard Bella had run away from home and finally became my husband's secretary.”
“True and I never saw Bella really depressed after Pak Juno rejected her. Indeed after the incident my husband locked him in his room as a form of punishment, even so he still tried to escape from this house.”.
“Then... then yesterday I found Bella had hanged herself in her room,” explained Mr. Firman's wife, her crying broke again.
Candra's trying to calm Mr. Firman's wife. Many times Mr. Firman's wife asked Candra to forgive all Bella's mistakes. Candra had indeed forgiven the woman a long time ago, also the incident had passed for her. She's not the vengeful kind of woman.
“You want to go home now?” ma'am Maya whispered to Candra.
“Iya, Mother. A moment Candra said goodbye to Mr. Firman's wife first.”
Bu Maya just nodded, he was waiting for Candra who was still talking to Mr. Firman's wife. Actually, Maya still does not understand who Bella is and what her relationship with Candra is.
“Come, Ma,” invite Candra after finishing talking with Mr. Firman's wife to say goodbye home.
Bella's body has been heading to the cemetery since a few minutes ago. Mr. Firman's wife did not take the body of the princess to the funeral. Earlier when he was about to leave, suddenly Mr. Firman's wife fell unconscious. He still felt very guilty for his daughter.
“So Bella who is it?” asked Bu Maya who was still curious, he was just according when invited Candra came here.
“Former secretary Mas Juno,” replied Candra.
Bu Maya simply nodded her head in understanding, then there was no more conversation between them. Candra also deliberately did not tell their relationship in detail. Now what disturbs Candra's mind is, what is the content of Bella's chat sent to Juno?
