IT WAS THE WIDOW'S FAULT
58.Message from Gina

"Assalamualaikum,"Asifa entered the house.

"Wa'alaikumsalam dear," replied Mr. Herman who was sitting on the sofa.

"Pa, I'm going to the kitchen first to save the groceries."Asifa.

"Yes, after that you're here again yeah, papa wants to talk."Said Mr. Herman to his daughter.

"Well, a minute."Asifa walked straight into the kitchen.

Asifa has reached the kitchen directly put near the sink. Remove vegetables, tempeh, fish, grated coconut, kitchen spices, butts, and chilies.

Asifa washed the fish, after which she stored it in the refrigerator, tempe also entered the refrigerator. Finished then forward to meet his papa. By reading a glass of water, for him to drink while talking to his father.

Arriving in the living room Asifa chose to sit next to her papa.

"What do you want to say?"ask Asifa.

"So what did you talk to Erna about?"ask Mr. Herman.

"Biasa pa, if you meet him there is no such thing as chat. There is a debate that has no end."Asifa said casually.

"But what did he tell you? did he hurt you with that chili mouth?"ask Mr. Herman.

"Yes, but I'm fine pa."Asifa said casually and with a sweet smile.

"Surely it's okay?" mr. Herman stared at his daughter intensely. And Asifa simply nodded, as Asifa replied.

...****************...

Day after day, Asifa and her parents changed. Asked to attend, at Ardi's wedding at the request of Mr. Arya.

The truth is at the request of Ms. Gina. Because yesterday, Miss Gina, was aware of her critical period. Happy when Mr. Arya will comply with his request.

Now Salsa looks beautiful and graceful, with a modern kebaya. It looks simple, but elegant, in harmony with what Ardi is wearing. They wear white kebaya and suits.

Asifa came with her parents, went straight into the VVIP room. Where Bu Gina is treated, cannot be denied. That Ardi could not turn his gaze to Asifa, his ex-wife.

Bu Gina with a weak voice, was indeed Asifa.

Apologized for her, who asked Asifa to attend her son's wedding.

"Honey mom apologized for asking you to be present at Ardi's wedding. Sorry if this adds to the hurt in your heart. I just want to share my happiness with you. Because I already considered you mother's daughter. Consider this the last mother's request. This time mother no longer I'm looking for and interrupting your time and life."Said at length, to the daughter and daughter-in-law.

"I have forgiven all for mistakes that were intentionally or unintentionally committed. You keep talking, don't talk about something we don't know in the future." Asifa didn't want Miss Gina to speak.

"Aamiin," answered Asifa, her parents, Arya sir and Surya sir.

Salsa and Ardi were silent, as they were both in the wrong position. Ardi could not say anything, while dealing with his ex-wife. After hearing Asifa's words a few days ago.

Salsa felt Asifa was like a stranger. Though they used to be very familiar, while still sitting on the bench of Junior High School. Now it's like there's a separation glass, it can see but it can't talk.

Salsa was unable to speak to Asifa, when she saw the expressionless look on Asifa's face. But Asifa could speak softly, to Ms. Gina. Although the expressionless flat face was still visible.

After Bu Gina spoke to Asifa's daughter and favorite daughter-in-law. Now Gina turned to Salsa, asking to get closer and to her left.

Salsa approached after staring at both her parents as well as her future husband.

"Salsa I'm sorry, if mother's request makes you forced to accept and match this. Because I want Ardi to be able to continue his future. Not to be late in his past. I hope whatever happens in your household. You stay together, with Ardi and defend your household" Ms. Gina told her future daughter-in-law.

"God willing, ma'am, I will learn to accept and live the trust of my mother as much as I can."Salsa said to her future father-in-law.

"Mas Arya, Ardi,"call Bu Gina, to her husband and only son.

Mr. Arya and Ardi approached Ms. Gina, right in Asifa's right position. Mr. Arya beside Asifa, Ardi was beside his father. Ardi also still keeps his distance from his future wife. Likewise with his ex-wife, at this time he must keep his distance.

Seeing the narrow space, Asifa retreated to give the Aryan pack space.

"Mas I'm sorry, if all this time often makes you hurt and disappointed you."Said Mrs Gina.

"No dear, you're never wrong. Because all this time I've never been sensitive to you. Can't keep and and protect you well. Always busy with work and can't pay attention to you. I apologize for being a selfish husband and father.

I'm sorry.., "sir Arya immediately hugged his wife, who was lying weak. And kissed his hands, and then his eyebrows and his cheeks. No matter the eyes in the room.

Because in the room is not only besan and prospective besan only. There are doctors, nurses, and also menghulu who have come from earlier. Along with the arrival of Asifa and her family.

After Mr. Arya calmed down, and let go of his embrace, Ms. Gina took part.

"I'm sorry, I can understand a busy person. Busy for our family, so do not ever blame yourself. I hope you can be airy, accept the almighty provision. I don't want to go quietly, and no one else blames anyone. I just want peace with the Hermansyah family. Keep loving Asifa as our daughter, and love Salsa as well as our daughter-in-law." Bu Gina said at length, casually without tears.

"God willing, my dear, I will fulfill your request as best I can." Said Mr. Arya, rubbing the head of Ms. Gina and kissing her forehead back.

Ardi instantly shifted, after his father took two steps back.

"Darling mom knows it's hard for you, but I'm sure someday you'll be happy. Because you both have felt that his name failed. I hope you can learn from your past. It would be no longer rash to make a decision. Which will make you regret yourself, in your life for the second time. Hopefully you and Salsa can complement each other and close each other's shortcomings. I will always pray, this marriage is the same." Said Gina's mother, to her son, and gave her advice at length.

"Good ma'am, I'll try to do my best....
