It's been two days now, Melati's been thinking about everything that's been said about Marvel. He could not accept the fact, if it turns out Marvel had lied to him like that.
However, he also could not accept the reality, and could not end his relationship with the figure of Rusdi whom he loved so much.
Some time Rusdi tried to approach Melati, until finally Melati collapsed because of his efforts. Melati could not ignore every effort Rusdi made.
However, Melati also could not accept this very expensive diamond ring, a gift from Marvel. He was confused, he received the ring from Rusdi, or from Marvel which he had previously rejected indirectly.
Melati sat pensively on her father's butut sofa, which was in the middle room of her house. He sat down while turning the ring he was wearing on his ring finger, and played it with eyes that looked me in front of him.
Don't know what to do, Melati's dealing with all this. He also does not understand, why is he trapped in a pseudo-love, with a fake person?
‘Why, yes? By the time I was getting comfortable with that guy, he was actually lying about his identity. Why doesn't Marvel behave like Rusdi, keep teasing me the way Rusdi does? Why lie like that? What's the point of lying like that?’ inward Melati, who felt very upset thinking about Marvel's lies to her.
The comfort he got from Marvel, it turns out only limited to the pseudo taste of fake people.
Melati doesn't want it.
“Excuse me,” said someone from the direction of the entrance, making a daydream scum of Melati.
Melati with her shock, immediately turned her head towards the entrance of her house.
This old man has a lot of workers, who market vegetables that he has managed so far. In other words, this old man was a vegetable guru in the village where Melati lived.
Melati opened her eyes, so surprised she saw the figure of an old man in his 50s. Melati quickly got up straight from her seat, and looked at her with a very tense look.
“Goodnight, beautiful Melati,” her reply very flirtatious, making Melati a bit confused about how to respond to her attitude.
From the direction of the entrance of the house, came Mother and Father who lowered their head, walking towards Melati. They immediately looked towards Melati with sadness, making Melati feel very confused looking at their current expression.
“Mother, Father, what is this? How sad is that?” asked Melati who was astonished to see their expressions.
Mother and Father threw their eyes at each other, not feeling good about it to the child.
“Tadi .. time Mr. narik angkot, not accidentally Mr. nabrak vegetable staff Mr. Sodik. The employee is now in the hospital, healing his wounds. The vegetables were all destroyed, run over by Mr. angkot car. You can not pay everything now, while Mr. Sodik threatened to win Mr.,” said his father explained the real situation.
Hearing his Father's words, Melati was very distrustful and she felt very shocked.
“What?!” pekik Melati was shocked, who did not believe what her Father said.
They were both silent, for there was nothing they could say anymore.
