"Mother, I'd like to sew clothes for the brides maid at Arina's wedding. Is there a good tailor here?" Tanya Widuri to the Goddess, her mother.

"Yes that's tho nduk, Budhe Siti pretty much stitched?" sahut Bu Dewi's.

"No way, Mom. Model Budhe Siti seams too old and ndeso. Less neat as well, I don't like it," Widuri declined. He is irritated because he needs new clothes immediately to attend the wedding invitation of his best friend in the city, only his clothes are on average oversized. Well, since breaking up with Gandhi, Widuri's weight has dropped dramatically. And if you have to sew to Budhe Siti, he does not really like it.

"Aah! I remember someone, Nduk!" The Goddess exclaimed suddenly.

"Who, Ma? Is she another more recommended tailor?"

"Of course it's right, honey. He's a newcomer to this Merbayu Village. The stitches are pretty neat. He was also young, so he understood the models of modern clothes. The average customer is young people here" said Ms. Dewi.

"Newcomer? Who is he, Mom?" tanya Widuri was curious. "Four years of wandering around, it seems I've become less slang."

"She has only been married for one year and officially lives here, Duri. Actually, the origin was in the village of Sabrang Kidul, a little far from the sub-district city. She's the same age as you."

"Oh, huh? Looks like I have a friend in Sabrang Kidul Village, Ma. But I forgot his name" said Widuri while remembering. He did not know for sure, only for the village which was located quite remote from the sub-district city, he did have an acquaintance. But because it was a long time ago when he was young and still in elementary school, he did not remember too much.

"Well, just meet. Mother also forgot her name, but yesterday had a short chat when passing by at the market," advised Bu Dewi.

"okay, Mum. Where is his house? Later let me ask Mr. Untung to take me there," said Widuri.

The Goddess sighed. After exhaling her slowly, she said, "Mom ask you to be careful in making friends with her, Thorn."

Widuri furrowed her two eyebrows in wonder. Not as usual Miss Dewi told him so. So he asked, "What's the matter, Mom? Isn't he a good man?"

"You'd be very surprised to know who her husband is, baby."

"Who's her husband, Mom?" Tanya Widuri was curious.

"Raka." Bu Dewi's reply suddenly made Widuri's heart seem to explode. Her eyes widened in surprise, patterning so beautifully.

Netra Bu Dewi was peeking sharply towards her beloved daughter. She said, "Mom knows you still love Raka, Nduk. But remember that he is married. Please be careful in hanging out with the two of them, because after all, the story between you and Raka is over and she has already started a story with another woman."

That afternoon, Widuri asked to be escorted by Mr. Untung, his family's private driver to Raka's house. Although located in the same village, but because their village is in the hilly area, the road they have to go through is quite steep and steep. In addition, Widuri did not know the approximate location of Raka's new house with his wife.

"How come Raka has to live in Merbayu village?" Says Widuri with a burning heart. "Why not buy land or a house in his mother's village alone, in Caruban Village? Why should I buy land here and be my neighbor?"

After taking a winding road with rocks on several roads, Widuri arrived at a simple house with a notice board on the front of the house.

"Seruni? Who is Seruni? Is that my friend's name? But, I don't have a friend named Seruni," Widuri thought as he got out of his car. Then hesitantly, he entered the simple gate of the semi-permanent house.

"Excuse me!" he said it in front of the house door while knocking on the door.

The door opened, showing a beautiful face poking out behind the door.

For a moment, the two girls looked at each other in surprise, as if they had known each other.

"Lho, Aruni?" exclaim Widuri shocked. He glanced confusedly at the notice board he had just read. 'Seruni' and 'Aruni'. Yeah, a little similar, anyway. But is it true that he did not have the wrong address? Was Runi the tailor her mother meant?

"Eh, yes! Is this right, Tika? Cantika, right?" tanya Runi who is no less surprised by Widuri, or who is more familiar as Tika or Cantika. But apparently, he only knew the name Widuri as Cantika, without the frills of his last name.

"Well, yeah! You still know me?" Widuri asked back.

"of course! You are a school star at Merbayu Elementary School, who is always the first champion in every school race," seloroh Runi.

"Didih, the basic hobby is low. Who is always champion one yes, the star of the school from Sabrang Kidul Elementary School, Arunika Swasthi. If there is a list of your name among the participants of the race, I must have gone first because you must be the winner of the race!" I remembered Widuri laughing.

"Ah you, can you!" runi Exclamation. He who was quite surprised to know the arrival of this uninvited guest also invited Widuri to enter. "Go in, Tika!

"Ah, yes. Thanks," said Widuri aka Tika while following the steps of Runi into his house.

The cold began to pierce when Widuri stepped foot into the house. His eyes went around sweeping the room, looking for something that might make him ascertain the identity of this girl.

Who her?

Is it true that his mother said, that this tailor is the wife of Raka, a former lover whom he still loved with all his heart?

In a corner of the room, Widuri could see a wedding photo! The white kebaya wrapped in the slim body of Runi and her makeshift natural makeup that adorns the beautiful face, making the rival race between the schools of Widuri a long time ago look so beautiful and graceful.

And ... Widuri's heart seemed to burn even more as her eyes rolled towards the figure of a handsome man with a towering height who stood firmly next to Runi. Wearing a black suit with a bow tie, with her charming smile on her back to the camera. Not to forget, the big, stocky hand coiled in the slender stomach of his best friend and rival during elementary school. Their smiles both looked bright and happy.

Widuri smiled bitterly. Nekat fled for four years and left all his possessions in Merbayu Village apparently had left him behind everything. Four years can change everything! The man who had always sought and pursued his love half-dead, now in front of his own eyes, was hugging another woman.

Although only with a photo, but the heart of Widuri, indescribable how much pain. Supposedly, it was him who was now in the photo, with his body hugged by Raka's burly arms, smiling towards the camera!

It should be him, not Runi!

"Rune ... Is it true that you are the wife of Raka, the man I love?" tanya Widuri had a pain in her heart.
