I was very uneasy considering the events the other day that Arga took me back with her. On one hand I miss my husband a lot and of course I want to go back to him. But on the other hand I don't want those painful events to repeat themselves. It makes me feel frustrated. I couldn't close my eyes to fall asleep.
I got up from my sleep. Took the marriage card that had fallen out the other day that my boss found and returned it to me.
I stared at the card full of history in my life. This heart hurts so much to endure such a heavy longing for my husband. But what is this power I must do for my future as well. If Arga really loves me, he obviously won't give up. He will definitely try his best to get me back.
"What should I do, O God. This heart is really in lema. I love my husband, but I'm afraid I'll get hurt again. I don't want to get hurt again" I said softly with tears in my eyes.
Pity, longing, vengeance are now united in my heart. I don't know how to. I was confused, very confused.

Santi comes back to Riko's house when night has come. She still did not accept what Riko did to her this afternoon.
Santi goes to meet Riko who is still sitting daydreaming in her backyard.
"Ko" Tegur her with a less friendly tone.
"Let's go" replied Riko seeing who was coming.
"I want to ask you? What exactly is my fault with you that you made me like this?" Santi asked with a slightly angry tone.
"You're not wrong about anything as I am San" Riko replied in a soft tone.
"Keep, why are you still staring at Rea's photo like that. You haven't forgotten Rea, have you?"
"I'm sorry to you San. I didn't mean to make you hurt like this"
"Keep, why are you doing this to me? If you haven't forgotten Rea and haven't been able to accept me fully in your life, we better end this engagement and we can cancel our wedding which is only a few weeks away" Santi was very disappointed with Riko at this time.
"Let's go see your mother now. We say that we just cut off our engagement and our wedding is cancelled" he added. Some clear water was now melting on his cheeks.
Santi cried because of the disappointment in his heart to Riko. At present.
"Don't Santi, I beg you. I'm sorry to you. I don't want to let my mom down San"
"Keep, Until when? How long do you have to pretend that you love me and accept me completely in your life to your mother? You're playing with my feelings like this. Not only are you the one who hurt Riko, I am too. I'm here toyed with by you with you pretending to love me completely like this"
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I admit wrong to you. But that doesn't mean I don't love you" he said. Riko tries to persuade Santi.
"Lying, you never love me and you never love our bond either" guess Santi.
"If you really love me as much as what you just said, you definitely won't do this to me Riko. So I think it would be nice for us to just cut off our engagement and our marriage, we just cancel" Santi said again.
"No, I don't want San. I don't want to disappoint my mother"
"But you've disappointed me Ko"
Riko took her breath in deeply and in her strong exhale. He was really confused by the insistence of Santi like that. He did not want to disappoint his mother. But she also can't keep pretending to love Santi in front of her mother. It's true Santi said, not only was he injured, but Santi as well.
"Later on, we can't talk about this first. Right now I really need some time" Pinta Riko.
"How much longer do you need Riko? A year, two years? How much longer are you going to hurt yourself and myself like this?" Santi said with a mocking smile.
Riko just kept quiet could not answer the question from Santi. Nor did he know the answer to Santi's question just now.
"Don't talk about this first San" he said again.
"When should we talk about this? You know we're getting married in a few weeks?"
"Yes I know, it's just that I don't want to talk about this right now"
"So when? What when we get married? Ko, it was precisely that moment that was already too late. It would be nice to discuss this now because we are not married and can prevent painful things from happening. I don't want to marry someone who just pretends to love me" Santi said.
"Santi, I beg you. Please don't discuss this now! I need some time. I really need some time. Right now my head feels dizzy thinking about all this as if this head wants to break. So I beg you to give me time" Pinta Riko again left Santi who was still standing in her backyard.
"Tega You Ko, can you do this same to me. And when our problems are not finished, you leave me like this" Santi said in a statement. Some clear water now flowed back on his cheeks.

The morning has come, it just so happens to be Sunday. Arga decided to return to the town of Terubuk where I was.
The female servant who had a fight with her the other day also gulped when she saw Arga coming over to her.
He intended to escape so that there would be no more problems with him like the other day.
Just now the girl turned around Arga was reprimanding her.
"Eh, you" said Arga.
The girl turned around and tried to smile at Arga even though the smile seemed forced.
"I'd like to meet your Rea manager" he said.
"What does it take, sir?" Ask the girl.
"Eh, I have nothing to do with you. I just want to meet with Rea because there is business with her not you" said Arga was upset because the waiter did not directly obey his orders.
"I'm sorry sir, Rea's mom is out right now. Today is Sunday so buk Rea did not enter the pack" explained the waiter gently.
"So if there's anything you can tell me later I will get to buk Rea" he said again.
"Eh, right now I have business with Rea not with you" Arga said annoyed.
"Sorry sir, do you not understand the work procedure? We as workers should not interfere with our superiors if nothing matters sir. So if there is a complaint then you can tell me, later I will convey it to buk Rea and currently buk Rea is not coming in sir. So how should it be? It is impossible for me to tell buk Rea that there are people who want to meet him and do not know clearly what his purpose is? Maybe later buk Rea will be angry with me" said the waiter was trying to restrain his emotions.
"Amboi, amboi is so beautiful in your language huh. You know I'm here as a customer. And I should get better service not like this" Arga said along with emotions.
The waiter smiled as he looked forced.
"I'm sorry sir. Sorry very much" said the waiter put his hands together like a sungkemen only.
"I spoke to you very well. But his father would not listen to what I said. If the customer is all like my father, I stopped working here for a long time" the waiter said as to himself.
"What did you say? Uh, just so you know yes. You have shown that you are not a good job. If you do a good job, you will patiently accept all the trials and complaints from your customers. It's not like this" Arga said.
"Just give it to you sir. Do I have anything to help you with?" Ask the waiter who put his teeth together to feel angry with Arga.
"I just need help to meet with Rea" she said.
"Can't sir, apologize deeply. Can't be sir"
Arga looked emotional with the waiter earlier. Nor does he know what to do at this time. The servant girl left Arga.
Arga looked upset and left the place.

Not giving up, Arga returns to the cafe again. He also meets a male waitress who happens to be his work shif the night. That's..
"It was a good thing not to meet the waiter this afternoon who was carrying it" he said seeing that no waiter had quarreled with him earlier this afternoon.
"Sorry mas" said Arga.
"Yes, sir, there's something I can help you with"
"I want to meet Rea. Does he exist?"
"Mother Rea didn't come in today sir. Because today is Sunday so he's not in sir"
"Can I help you?"
"Son, I just want to meet Rea"
"If so, tomorrow you will come back here" suggested the male servant.
"Hm... I need her now. Can you ask him to come here?"
"Oh sir, I'm sorry. I am currently working. I have a lot of work, sir. My boss will be angry with me, sir. Sorry sir I can't help" said the waiter.
"Do you know where he is now?"
"I don't know sir, maybe at his boarding house or out enjoying his time off"
"Know where the hell the hell's boarding?"
"Don't know me sir"
"There's no way you don't know the cost" said Arga still clean hard.
"Sorry sir, I really don't know sir"
"Do you know who I am, Rea?" Arga. He felt that the waiter had lied to him about not knowing where I was going. If he says he's my husband, chances are that the waiter will be honest and will tell me where I'm going.
"Don't know sir" replied the waiter as he was.
"I am Sua.... " Anga said no further, he changed his mind to say that he was my husband. I don't know, I don't know what made her not so say that she was her husband to the waiter earlier.
"Have forgotten it. Thank you and good night" said Arga passed from the front of the waiter.
"Yes alike. Sua, sua what? Sua sui kemuning?" Said the waiter was astonished by Arga's behavior. Sua sui kemuning it is a song sung by P.ramle with his colleagues in the film fate do re mi. P.ramle and his colleagues sold counterfeit drugs.
Arga returned to his hotel. The hotel was not far from where I worked. He deliberately stayed at the hotel so that he could continue to meet with me.
He sat in the lobby of the hotel overlooking the sea. Enjoy the cold night breeze pierced into sanu bari.
"Oh Rea, it's very difficult to meet you" he said softly.
"Somehow should I say that I really can't live without you. Please tell me. What do I have to do to make you believe me? Do I need to plunge into this sea so that you can be sure that my love is sincere and holy?" Say it yourself again.
"Mas, why?" Asked a guest passing by was astonished by Arga's attitude of talking to himself.
Arga became misbehaved because he was caught alone talking to himself.
"Oh, wear someone else's look. What do I have to give? I could have later said crazy again this same person" Inner.
"Mas, we're doing drama practice?" Guess that guy again.
"Oh, yes, I'm in drama practice"
"What area are you from?" Ask that guy.
"If I'm from Bukit Batu" he added again.
"I'm from Bengkalis" Arga lied. That person was the envoy from the rock hill area for the drama match there. Well, the city of Bengkalis is famous for its culture that is always upheld. Where every year there must be a drama match event between the area, school and the kingdom-themed sanggar. And fortunately for the next few days the drama match event was held there.
Incidentally also the hotel that became the residence of Arga was where the drama participants were there.
