Accompanied by Ummi Firda, Aira and Via go to the orphanage to say goodbye to Bu Kinan and the other residents, because after all, they are the first family of Via.

Bu Kinan, who still does not know about Aira's problems, thinks that Aira and Via are only returning home for a vacation, especially Via did say they will vacation there.

After Via said goodbye to the housewife and her friends, they went home.

But on the way home, Via whines to take his bag that is still in Arsyad's house.

"Later Ummi bought another bag, darling," persuaded Aira.

"But Via likes the pink bag that Ummi bought, Via does not want another bag," said Via.

Aira let out a long sigh, she felt very lazy if she had to go to her in-laws' house. But because he felt sorry for Via, he also drove his car to the house of Arsyad.

"Aren't you today Arsyad is going home to see you? Just tell him to bring the bag," said Ummi Firda.

"So he sent a message, Ummi. He said he was gone" replied Aira.

"Yes tell him to take it again, Aira."

"Already, Ummi. Nothing, I want to say goodbye to Ummi Ridha." Ummi Firda did not respond to what his daughter said, because if he became Aira, he did not want to see in-laws like that anymore.

Arriving at Arshad's house, Aira knocked on the door and her breath was held in her chest as Anggun who had come opened it.

The pain that has not subsided now seems to be on the backstitch, the heart that is still sick as if it is now in shreds again, his breathing feels heavy, as if he can not breathe.

Anggun was very surprised to see the arrival of Aira, he could only be stunned without knowing what to say.

"Who, Graceful?" Shouted Ummi Ridha from inside.

"Humaira.." replied Aira trying hard.

Ummi Ridha who heard Aira's voice was very surprised, he immediately rushed out and he was astonished to see Aira and Umm Firda.

"Sorry to interrupt, Via wanted to take his bag left behind in his room," said Aira while Ummi Ridha was speechless, especially when her gaze met with the gaze of Umm Firda who was looking at him coldly.

"All of you want to say the same to Ummi." he continued.

"Incoming .. please come in," said Ummi Ridha stammering.

"We are only for a moment, Ma'am," replied Umm Firda still maintaining her cold gaze and look.

"Come, Honey. We take your bag," said Aira, holding Via's hand, as she walked past Anggun and Umm Ridha, who were standing by.

"Tante, please come in first, let me make some tea," said Anggun to melt the atmosphere so tense.

"Origin do not mix poison," said Ummi Firda casually who made Graceful heart gasp, so with Ummi Ridha.

Seeing the tense faces of these two women in front of him, Ummi Firda just chuckled.

"I'm just kidding" Ummi Firda said later. "Good people will not poison others, unless there is a vile poison in their hearts." he quipped that made Anggun immediately bowed.

"I'm sorry, Ma'am," Ummi Ridha said later.

"Oh, no! Don't apologize, there's nothing wrong here, everyone just wants the best and will do the best." Ummi Ridha stared at the iron sharply then he continued. "For themselves," he said.

"Do you know?" sela Ummi Firda who does not let Anggun speak. "Usually, the second woman who becomes the third person in one's relationship will only be a shadow of the first, ALWAYS!"

While above, Aira searched for a Via bag that was not in her room. Even Via's toys weren't in Via's room. "The bag is gone? Is it possible that it was thrown out?" whining Via was sad, his nose was already blooming and his eyes had turned red.

"There's no way Abi's throwing away your stuff, honey. It might be in Abi's room" Aira said.

He took Via to his room and sure enough, all of Via's things were in Arsyad's room. Bags, books, shoes, sandals.

Being in this room again made Aira again remembered with her memories with Arsyad. This room bears silent witness to their journey of love, hope, dreams and their do'a-do'a. Aira's tears rolled back just like that but Aira immediately wiped them off.

Before leaving, Aira looked around the room, touched the dressing table where sometimes Arsyad helped her dry her hair, braided her hair while she was going to sleep, and even Arsyad helped her put on her veil. Aira smiled remembering those sweet memories that will now only become memories.

Aira touched the bed where she and Arsyad had been loving all along, and in the bed, Aira found the locket she thought was missing.

Aira took the lionon and put it back on, Aira kissed the lionon engraved with Arsyad's name and her name.

"Let me carry this, as a memento."

After that, Aira and Via went down and Aira could feel the tension between the three women.

"Have you?" ask Ummi Firda. Aira nodded, then she pulled Ummi Ridha's hand and kissed the back of her hand which made Umm Ridha's heart gasp.

"I say goodbye, Ummi," Aira softly said. "I'm sorry if all this time I can't be the perfect daughter-in-law, who Ummi wants to be." Ummi Ridha just remained silent.

"That's natural, dear," continued Umm Firda. "If there is no perfect son-in-law as the father-in-law wishes, then there is also no perfect in-law according to the wishes of the son-in-law. Since man is only a creature that must have flaws." he again insinuated sharply.

"Come, Ummi. We go home," asked Aira because she could feel the emotion in her mother's voice, Aira did not want to make things worse.

"Assalamualaikum," said Umm Firda still with a sharp gaze.

"Via wants to go first, Grandma. Want to go on vacation, later tell Abi to follow ya, Nek," exclaimed Via with sparkling eyes.

"Yes, dear," replied Umm Ridha, he hugged Via and kissed her. "Be careful."

"We certainly look after him and will not hurt him intentionally." again Umm Firda interrupted sharply which made Umm Ridha wrong her own behavior, as well as Anggun.

"I'm still her husband" Arsyad said as Micheal looked at her intently and would not allow her to step inside her house. "I just wanted to see him before Aira gets home" he added in a choked up voice.

"Let him in, Micheal!" Abi Gabriel cried from within.

Reluctantly, Micheal lets Arsyad in. "Aira and Via are still going to the orphanage, soon maybe home" Abi Gabriel said.

Arsyad just nodded then sat on the sofa, he waited for Aira with a thumping feeling.

And when he heard the sound of the car, Arsyad immediately came out. His heart was pounding even more as he watched Aira get off the car.

Arsyad could not stop the tears flowing down her cheeks as Aira approached her with a smile behind her veil.

Arsyad knew Aira was smiling even though Aira's face was covered in a veil, that smile was clearly visible in her eyes, a smile full of wounds.
