The table at the end of the restaurant was the best choice for the two men to talk about something that seemed serious. The man who met Marvel accidentally chose the table farthest from Gabby sitting down. I don't want the conversation to be heard by that woman.
“How are you, Jo?” ask Marvel to his former confidant.
“Good, sir,” replied Jo.
“Don't call me master, I'm not your master anymore.”
“Good, sir ... uh, Marvel.”
“You now work where? How's my other ex-boyfriend? Did they all get new jobs?”
“All have split to different countries, I have rarely get news again after you decided to stop.”
Marvel nodded, there was an uneasy feeling to the hundreds of people he fired because of his decision to stop it. “I'm sorry, I just want to fight for my love,” regret it.
“Not a problem, indeed we live need a companion to accompany our old age, later.”
Marvel agreed. “I'll be married to Gabby soon, come if you're free.”
“I'm happy, but—” Jo seems hesitant to say something. He does not want to ruin the happiness Marvel just got after a long time does not look happy.
“But, what? Just say,” urges Marvel who is starting to be curious.
Jo shook his head. He cannot ruin the happiness of his former master. It was better to keep it to himself and protect it from afar. “I forgot what to say,” to him. “It doesn't seem very important, so I forgot about it,”.
“You're it, just make me curious,” kink Marvel.
“You really stopped, right?” Jo wants to make sure the results of Marvel's cure.
Marvel nodded. “I've recovered, but still under surveillance,” he replied.
Marvel chuckles. “You're disturbing, Jo. But no problem, we haven't seen each other in a long time.”
“I'm asking for your new number. So that we are easy to communicate.” Jo gave Marvel his phone to write down his number.
“Already? Did you meet me just to ask for my number?”
No, there's more important things, but I don't want to ruin your happiness. Jo couldn't say it, he had a dialogue in his heart.
“Iya, I miss your nagging,” joked Jo.
Makes Marvel tickle. “Be quick to find a partner, so that you are not ludicrous like that.”
“I'm just kidding, I miss you. Because I'm used to working with you, not missing you because I like you.” Jo straightened out the accusations of Marvel thinking negatively about him.
“If you have nothing else to say, I want to go back to my woman.” Marvel stared lovingly at Gabby who had not yet started eating as she was waiting for him.
Jo nodded and allowed Marvel to return.

The burial area located next to the lake is the next destination by prospective married couples who are well established to get married. Mama Gabby and Marvel's parents are buried in the same cemetery.
“Ma, I'm coming again. Now, I come not alone anymore as usual,” Gabby said.
After asking Marvel's parents for their blessing, who can't even hear their words, the two men turn to Mama Gabby's grave, and they can't hear what she's saying.
Gabby looked at Marvel, the man smiling sweetly and holding her captive. “I finally made my choice, Ma. This guy next to me. I finally picked it.”
Gabby sobbed as she said it, not knowing what made her cry. Whether it's tears of happiness for marrying someone who loves her, or tears of sadness for not getting her love.
