Request
A woman who looked very pale, was on top of the bed. The woman was wearing a breathing apparatus and an infusion needle stuck in her hand. The woman was deeply asleep in her sleep, and a man kept clasping his hands. Every now and then the man stroked the woman's cheek tenderly.
Disturbed, the woman opened her eyes and saw her husband beside her. The woman looked at her husband with a smile.
"Darling...." The man shed his tears at the sight of his wife who looked very weak.
"Don't cry, mom! I don't like to see you cry, this is the karma I had to accept in the past!" said the woman with a smile.
"No karma baby, don't talk like that! I know you very well, you are a very good woman!" said the man, hearing the good word made the woman shake her head.
"Mas, where's mama?" ask the woman weakly.
"Mama's on the road, baby! He said he wanted to bring someone you wanted to meet from last night!" The woman just nodded her head.
Cup...
The man kissed his wife softly. When the door of the room opened, the two of them immediately turned their heads towards the door. An old woman but still looked very beautiful and a young woman came together.
"Mama...The light.." the woman immediately spread out one hand to welcome the one who had just arrived.
The girl named Light immediately hugged the woman. Light shed his tears as he looked at his friend who looked extremely weak and pale.
"Mey, why don't you tell me you're sick" Light said, wiping away her tears.
"I don't want you to be sad to see me like this!" said the sick girl, her name is Mesya Mariska.
Mesya's husband and the middle-aged woman could only silently watch the conversation between Mesya and Light.
"Ma..." Mesya called the middle-aged woman with a smile.
"Why baby?"
"I'm sorry Mesya
ma..., Mesya can't be the perfect daughter-in-law for my mom's son" Mesya said.
"Std.... Who said baby? You are the perfect mother's daughter-in-law." said the woman, holding back her tears.
It turned out that the middle-aged woman was the biological mother of her husband. As her in-laws Mesya said it made Light appear silent and her past heartache reappear.
"Mas, come here..." Mesya called her husband who somewhat gave distance between her Companions. Mesya clasped her husband's hand with a smile.
"Mas, I have a request, can you grant my request?"
"Of course, baby! I'll grant your request, everyone. Tell me what you want?"
"I want you to marry the Light!" mesya said with a smile.
Hearing that made the Light almost fall to the floor, otherwise he held the edge of the bed firmly might the Light fall. Not only was Light shocked, but her husband himself was shocked by it.
"Darling what are you saying? Don't ask me for things I can't do!" said the man with annoyance.
"Me, please! I want before I go I see you married to a woman who can take care of you!" mesya said with a soft.
"No woman can take care of me like you love." said the man.
The light that heard the man's words felt his heart ache and wanted to cry. So that no one would see her cry, Light chose to leave the room. Light also does not want to marry because of coercion. The middle-aged woman who had from earlier noticed Light seemed to feel guilty because her son immediately rejected Light.

Because crying keeps making the Light tired. His eyes began to slowly close. In her sleep Light dreams of being with a man who looks like her husband Mesya in a car accident.
"Ryan.." cried Light, sweat was pouring down his face, Light immediately stood up and unpacked the contents of his bag.
When he found what he was looking for, Light immediately took some pills from inside the bottle he was looking for. Light dropped his body on the edge of his mattress while bending his knees to support his face.
Within the small room came the sound of her crying. The light mourned his unfortunate fate. From childhood to adulthood, he did not know who his parents were. When happiness comes to him where the lover proposes to him to marry, everything disappears in an instant. The night that the lover had just proposed to her, they had an accident when they came home from their favorite lake. The result of the accident made the lover named Ryan Adi disappear in his life.
Flashbacks
Actually, as a result of the accident, Light was in a coma for three months. When she wakes up and searches for her boyfriend's whereabouts she never once found him. The light is looking for a place where Ryan works and boarding, but everything is nil. Light felt remorse when Ryan introduced his parents he did not ask for Ryan's parents' phone number.
After a year and a half later, while on his way home from the office Light accidentally sees the mama of his girlfriend. The light immediately chased after her and greeted her mother Ryan politely. But Ryan's mom was looking at him cynically.
Light doesn't mind how Ryan's mother looks at him. When he asked where Ryan was, Ryan's mother was angry with him.
"You don't need to find my son! Soon she will marry a woman of the same rank as us! I know that you're approaching my son because he's his property right?"
"A..what does Aunt mean?" The light still didn't understand what Ryan's mother said.
"No need for plain ass in front of me. You're an orphan whose origins are unclear, you'll never be a match for my son's heir to Aditama's fortune!"
"Addedicated? Sorry Aunt what does that mean?"
"CRC... I can't believe that you don't know my son's true identity. I'm pretty sure you know everything. I warn you once again, do not seek the whereabouts of my son. My son is getting married and he has forgotten you too!" said the middle-aged woman cynically.
Flash back end
The incident was the most painful thing in his life, because remembering his past made Light cry hysterically while banging his chest that felt pressured.

"How's my wife, doc?" the man asked anxiously as he saw the doctor coming out of Mesya's room.
Mesya was immediately unconscious because her husband refused to marry the woman of his choice. Her in-laws also seemed very agitated because suddenly Mesya was unconscious.
"I ask you please don't make your wife think much. If he wants something please just say it, so that Madame Mesya does not think too much about it"
The man simply nodded his head to answer the doctor's request of her.
"Please excuse me, sir"
After the doctors and nurses left, the man and his mother went straight into Mesya's room.
Seeing her husband and her in-laws enter, Mesya immediately smiled. The man sat down beside Mesya and clasped Mesya's hand.
"Mas.." the man continued to kiss Mesya's hand wryly.
"Have you changed your decision?" ask Mesya weakly.
"Son, please grant Mesya's request. Remember what the doctor said." said the man's mother.
"But baby we don't love each other.... Not necessarily the light agrees!"
"I'm sure in the near future you can love her. The light of a very good woman and if the matter of Light, let me do the talking" Mesya said with a smile, only nodding his head so that his wife no longer spoke much.
