Midnight, Limasan Gandarani.

Still visible downstream the servants of the Galuh residence who were cleaning equipment after the event was completed.

Kusuma and Rey's family are still chatting in the family room while sipping hot coffee that Mban treats.

" Rey, is Mahen asleep? ". Galuh asked while lifting his coffee cup.

" No sir, last time I called Mama Rosi and maybe Miss ".

" Let Galuh first, pity my son-in-law, have not recovered properly his wounds ". Wisesa.

" Mir, you take a break... Tomorrow accompany Abah Sowan to Kyai Jazuli ". Pinta's father to Amir.

" Not sleepy... Shorten again ". Amir actually still wanted to chat with Mahen before going to bed. Something wants to be asked of him.

" Amir can play at Ka Abyan ga Bah's lodge before turning back? ". (clue nih gaes).

" Alone brave, right? Stacking work at home, Mang sapri overwhelmed pity ".

Tiring night as well as a relaxing night, for all residents Limasan Gandarani.

Meanwhile, in Mahen's room.

" Sister, when did you move here? ngunduh ghost in Mama ". There was a loud voice across.

" Don't know Ma yet, haven't met Naya... Tomorrow's the plan I'm planning on Naya's Grandpa... He wanted to be grateful to the neighbors around... Oiya Ma, when will you go to Naya? when I'm not officially applying anyway, Abah may also need to announce our status change ".

" So Om mu, agreed to represent the Father there, Abang just say when the time... After this, where do you want to live? ".

" Orchid... If at the compound, pity Naya alone... Anywhere far away, he hasn't let me learn to take a car anytime soon ".

" Same with Mama... ". Mama wants Naya to be next to her, taking care of the child like her own daughter.

" Don't Ma... There's Esa and Marsha would love to go there.. I haven't told Naya yet... It will be thought again... ".

" Mama can't wait to see Naya... He's just aching Bang... How was college then? moving out? ".

" My wife, Ma.... A lot of it turns out yes, which hahaha should discuss... It's only been three months... Like Jim who was thousands of miles apart... I can't stand it ".

" Yes yes, Brother's wife.... Arrogant now who already has a wife ".

" ha... Ma, I'm out right now, not good.. Abah and everyone are still gathering in the living room ".

" Gih, then break Bang... Meet my wife tomorrow... Wives... ". Temptation Mama.

" ha... Assalamu'alaikum ".

Mahen left the room when the Kusuma family was still discussing about the guests who had to be divided in two earlier. Jim saw Mahen out of the room, called him to join.

" Hens... Sit here, call Naya? ". Ask Mr. Jim.

" Already, but the expanse sir.. ". Mahen sat right next to Jim, facing Amir.

" Well, tomorrow will be there? if so, Abah can go out for a while with Amir later ". Abah asked his son-in-law.

" So Bah... Oiya was my name called Raden Panji? what does this mean, Bah? ".

" You asked Naya's great-grandfather Hen... Tomorrow ". Advice from Jim.

" Hmm, okay... Sir, I borrowed a car... ".

" Just use it, my Maybach or the silver BMW in the garage, the keys are the same as Krishna... I'll be back in Jakarta tomorrow afternoon ".

" Hurry too? it's not done here yet ". Abah.

" My business is... The rest of your business... Haha... There's a lot of work there that I have to finish in the near future, taking once in a while ". Say it again.

" How long am I on leave, sir? ". Ask Mahen.

" Till your business here is settled, this runs out to Cirebon right? thanks there? ". Jim made sure.

" should.... ". Reply firmly while getting up from his seat.

" Mum, break gih... I'll see my wife tomorrow... ". Temptation Abah as it passes.

Mahen became the months of the two middle-aged men who were bitterly teasing her, until a moment later all got up and went into their respective rooms.

Flashbacks.

A few days before Mahen's application was accepted, Limasan Gandarani.

Mr. Jim, who was checking reports about the development of the transfer of securities documents, was surprised by Rey who entered his study that afternoon.

" Sir, there's Raden Hasbi outside, asking permission to meet with Abang ".

" What does he want?... Didn't Mahen just go to sleep after changing his bandage earlier with a doctor? Do not disturb Rey, just returned from the hospital, his condition is not stable.. If he wants, just meet me ". Be firm, Mr. Jim.

" Okay, I say ". Rey returns to the room to the pendopo where Hasbi is.

" Mas Hasbi, brother just went to bed after changing his gauze bandage? most can meet with Mr. Jim, Raden Mas Galuh... How's it? ".

" Bandages? why?..... Can it be ".

Rey delivered Hasbi to Jim's room.

" Sit Mas ". Greet her when Hasbi was in her study.

" oom... Mahendra's sick? Mr. Rey said about the bandage... ".

" He was injured while rescuing Naya from Anggara last week, stabbed in the left abdomen... It is still under the supervision of a doctor... What is the need, Mas? " .

" Innalallahi... I wanted to ask her to persuade Naya to try a treatment technique with me... But hearing this, I hesitated... ".

" Naya and Mahen even though they only know about a year if I'm not wrong... A lot of hard things they've been through together... It won't be easy to remove her, let alone replace her with someone else... Much of Mahen did without Naya's knowledge, and vice versa... They love each other deeply, though in silence, do not talk much but both are bound inward ".

" Is it impossible for me? ".

" Waste the time.... Mahen is too dominant, especially if Naya finds out she was seriously injured for saving her from Anggara... Surely Naya will be even stronger to love him. ".

" Don't God's heart have it, Om? ".

" right... But whether you are strong, seeing your wife serving you is born heart but her heart thinks of others and you know it... Naya's a hard-hearted child, the more you force her, the further away she is... Think back to Mas, getting married not a day a month, but forever ".

" Just try.... When you don't feel pain when Naya acts cold or doesn't look at you as her husband... You willing?... Mas, the look in the eyes of the wife who adores and longs for her husband is a treasure that can not be exchanged for anything ".

Hasbi fell silent, what Raden Mas Galuh said was true. Their love has been strong while her love has just blossomed. " Can I see Mahendra, Om? ".

" Diantar Rey yaa, he just went to bed... Still pale due to his unstable condition, some parts of his body had bruises ".

Hasbi then enters Mahen's room accompanied by Rey. He saw his rival in a weak state lying on his couch.

" So great is your sacrifice for Naya... Get better, I leave Naya to you, make her happy.... I backed out with honor because from the beginning I had lost, Mahendra ". Hasbi said that in front of the sleeping Mahen, witnessed by Rey.

Hasbi met Mr. Jim again, expressed his intention to resign, and will be officially delivered by his abuya to Tumenggung Danarhadi.

Embodied already, Mr. Jim's beliefs about his mature plans to realize marriage for both of them.

Flasback.

Next Morning.

Naya had long gone to the rose garden and had a good night dedicated to her late ummi. While Mahen just arrived with Rey in Joglo Ageng. Mahen was amazed by the super tight security, the magnificent house thick Javanese tradition.

" Assalamu'alaikum's... ". Mahen said his greetings in front of Danarhadi's workspace delivered by Kusno.

" Into Mas... ".

Mahen approached slowly, bending as much as he could to grab Danarhadi's hand while still holding his left abdomen. Danarhadi who saw that, hurriedly got up.

" It's.... Just sit down, your wounds haven't healed properly ". Danarhadi hugged his daughter-in-law's great-grandson.

" Naya has been to his ummi garden escorted by Warni and two security staff... Mas want to follow or nemenin Uyut here ". Danarhadi patted Mahen's hand sitting next to her.

" Away from Yut? I want a surprise... Diantar Rey, I'm not my own driver ".

" Deket, just two kilometers... Later delivered Darso, Kusno want no need... ".

" Hmmmm Uyut... I want to ask you about the name when I'm in front of my name... That must mean something, right? ".

" Kanjeng Raden Panji Mu Mas... Directly awarded for your contributions to the 100 most influential young entrepreneurs in the country, contributions to the construction of street children and about the patent of your sensor device that is being tested on the vehicle of the Minister of Labor and development of the lagging regions, your new friend was right... Raden Panji, an honorary title for ordinary people who contribute to society in addition to the honorary title of your family from the Mama breed... Because that title came down on you... Later its inauguration after Sinuhun returned from Umroh yaa, the day after tomorrow ".

Mahen lowered his head, he was disinclined. Indeed, what he did secretly would not have been realized without Mr. Jim's help.

" Galuh says not many know your social activities... ". Danarhadi continued again, he did not expect the more investigated deeper, Mahen more sparkling.

" Hmm, that... ". Mahen is awkward in intense stare by his Buyut.

" I'm sorry Uyut underestimated you.. Even if you are nobody, your marriage will still be blessed because of your good faith.. ".

" Let's talk again... There, suck your wife... It's a real miss, right? 4 Months to see... Kid Rey told me yesterday, you're like a crazy person... Hahaha, Mas Mas... Ko saged tresno ne tumplek blek same hard hearted girl as Naya's ".

Mahen just smiled. " Rey... Rey likes to come here Yut? ".

" Just two days ago, the boy likes to swallow your mind, his work is fighting only with Kusno, he said: Brother does not like this, if you must be like this... Haha cute Rey is ".

Danarhadi calls Darso to escort Mahen to meet Naya in the garden.

*

Thirty minutes passed, Mahen arrived at the flower garden of his Buyut. He entered the gate, walked down the hill. Rey, Darso is waiting at the top, the pendopo where the flowers are sorted and the office is there.

" I'm sorry, punten Mba... Where is naya? ". Mahen asked a worker he passed.

" The Roro Den? in the middle near post 3... Ndoro. was swinging earlier, there were no workers there because of the harvest in post 2 and one... Ndoro from here down, turn left straight then right, there is a park before going up to the hill at post 4 above her ".

" Okay, thanks Mba.. ". Mahen traced the path according to the instructions. After a long walk, he saw Naya sitting on the swing of a shady tree.

" Eventually.... Dear... ". Old Mahen looked at him from a distance, he wanted to enjoy this by himself, seeing his little wife there. His eyes condensed, "Even to meet you after halal, so far... Ckck Naya, you're really hard to approach.. ".

Mahen pulled out his cell phone, he called Naya.

" dear... I met your husband... But I managed to find you here... I can see you ".

" Where's brother? don't come... ". His eyes circulated a glance, and soon their gazes met.

" Sister... No... ". Naya runs away as Mahen approaches. Seeing her princess Ndoro frightened, Warni was wary. He drives Mahen closer while Naya tries to stay away.

" Stop, or I'll hurt you, Mister ". Warni does not know the appearance of Naya's husband, because she is busy with security outside the residence with other staff.

Mahen did not heed Warni, until then he fended off a sudden attack from her.

" That's enough, I'm Naya's husband... I'm Mahendra, asked by my great-grandfather to follow Naya here... Don't believe? this is last night's video ". Mahen showed a video during the marriage contract.

" Pardon Ndoro, geez... Forgive me ". Warni instantly bowed low, feeling to have been brash.

" Later... I'm going after Naya first ". Mahen chased her, her breath was cut off, her hands were holding her belly, blood seepage was imprinted on her shirt. His wound reopened, he stopped after seeing Naya not far from him.

" Dear.. You said kangen to me? Is this how a wife welcomes her husband, who has not been seen for a long time ? ". Mahen is not strong anymore, he is telling the truth.

" I miss Brother but I'm married.... Aa-appa.... Her husband? Whose husband is A-bang? ".

" Ainnaya Misbach... ".

Naya twisted her body, she saw Mahen standing not far from her. With longing and longing eyes.

" you.... My wife, Naya... ". Mahen shed tears while continuing to talk on the phone.

" A-bang my husband? Hix..... ". Naya runs towards Mahen who stretches her arms to welcome the wife into her arms.

Brug. Naya crashes her body hugging Mahen. The two hugged each other tightly, Mahen kissed the head of his wife, obscuring every inch of her face...

" Bishim...... ". Mahen*cup bi*beer his wife with full of tenderness, the first kiss for both of them.

" Hiks, is this really not a dream, right? ". Whisper Naya after kissing*and they're gone. Both of them stick each other's forehead, mahen stroked the child's hair that was wet because of the tears that covered his wife's pretty face.

" Right sweetheart.... ". Still not satisfied to give up longing, Mahen again me*ngecup bi*bir Naya, this time softer, melted the longing that is still piling up.
