A beautiful evening for both. Enjoy the best time, after making love and unraveling the taste. Even Dad Tendean seemed to not believe that now there is Dianti lying next to him. Everything feels like this. Until midnight, the man who works as a doctor happened and observed Dianti's face there.
"What happened just now was really a surprise to me, Di .. I didn't think that I would be the first man for you. Even though I am a one-child widower, the surprise you gave me made me happy and claustrophobic at the same time. Even my chest feels claustrophobic when you say waiting for me," Tendean's father said in his own heart.
Yes, Tendean's father felt how his heart felt happy and sad at the same time. He thought that Dianti would get married and have a family. Even because he suspected it, Tendean's father did not ask if Dianti was married before. As soon as the first night, it seemed that everything had just been revealed. Instantly, Tendean's father remembered his old memory along with Dianti first.

Bandung, 26 years ago ....
When graduation at one of the universities in the city of Bandung, a student stood opposite a student under a Tabebuya tree with yellow flowers scattered when blown by the wind. The young man who was still wearing the toga looked at the girl with a gaze that seemed to be nailed down into the heart.
"In, I will continue my studies S2 to Jakarta. At the request of both my parents who advised me to specialise in nerves. So, I'm going to Jakarta, Di," said Tendean at that time who tried to explain that he would continue his lecture to Jakarta.
"To Jakarta, Mas Dean? For how long?" ask Dianti there.
The girl felt sad, when her level brother graduated and graduated, it was certain that the meeting of the two would be very rare. Because, during this time they only often meet on campus only. Now, when Tendean, his Level Brother was saying goodbye to going to the Capital, there was definitely a sense of sadness in Dianti's heart.
"Taking the S2, deepening the specialization, and becoming another medical certification, Di .. might be five to six years," Tendean replied again.
Oh, God ... wait as long as it's not easy. Five to six years is a long time. Moreover, the means of communication at that time there was no mobile phone, to call only people had to queue at Wartel and call with a limited duration because of the many queues. Instantly, Dianti's heart churned. In that span of time, he felt sanctioned by this nameless relationship.
"Alright Mas .. success for his studies. I pray that Mas will be successful and become a Nervous Specialist Doctor who will cure many patients later," replied Dianti.
Even when Dianti revealed that, there was a smile clearly imprinted on his face. Even though his heart felt so bitter. However, supporting Tendean to achieve his goals, that's what Dianti wants to do.
"Wait for me to come back, Di ... Bandung and Jakarta are not far away. I try on the weekend will visit you in Bandung. You want to wait for me?" tanyakanya.
Although bitter and also felt that it would not be real, Dianti still nodded his head there, "Yes, I will wait for Mas Dean to Bandung again."
"Thank you, Di .. You can understand me. I'll come back for you."
Unfortunately busyness as a medical student is so extraordinary, returning to Bandung only wishful thinking. Although the two often kite, but gradually because of busyness and never again meet, the relationship is interrupted, cut off, and just vanished.
Until finally, Tendean met Desy. A beautiful girl who has changed her world. As if everything was going the way it is. The figure of Dianti and the promise that was said was only a mere promise.

Now ...
Finally, the man lay down on Dianti's side, and clenched the body so tightly. Hugged it from behind. Really, it was such a beautiful night for her. Long nights in solitude are gone. Now only the wife will share the affection with him every day.

Until morning ...
Tendean's previous plan was to say hello to the first warm sun in their marriage, the way is to invite the wife to make love. Combining love and quenching thirst after feelings that are held back more than a quarter century.
Dianti, the wife was already in the kitchen that morning. As a woman, I always wake up early. So, Dad Tendean so awake he patted the bed that last night occupied by his beloved wife was empty.
"You woke up this early, Di?" tanyanya. Questions that don't get answers. The figure he asked was not there.
Finally, Dad Tendean also chose to go down, after smelling the aroma of cooking that tasted so delicious. The man looked into the kitchen, apparently his wife was wrestling with various cooking utensils in the kitchen.
"Morning, Di .. Did you just leave me? I'm looking for you" he said by hugging Mother Dianti's body from behind.
"I made breakfast for you, Mas Dean," he replied.
"You forgot .. This is our first morning as a husband and wife, I want to greet the sun by mixing love with you" said Tendean's father there.
Mother Dianti also smiled, "Is that still true for middle-aged couples like us?" tanyakanya.
"Yes, it still passed .. yuk, to the room," he asked.
Looks like Tendean's father turned off the stove there, and made the wife to face him. Then, Tendean's father smiled, slashing the gap to nothing, the tip of the nose sticking together, moving right and left, a sign of the great love of the husband and wife.
"You want yah?" bring again.
"I haven't had a bath yet" replied Mother Dianti there.
"No problem, after that we can take a bath together," replied Tendean's father again.
When, Dad Tendean continued to approach and cut the distance between the two lips were not much, apparently there was a scream from outside his house that made Tendean's father unravel his embrace in the body of the wife.
"Opa ... Oma ... The image came with Mama," cried Citra who had knocked on the door of Omanya's house.
Both are laughing. Want to enjoy the first morning as a married couple, in fact this morning welcomes the morning sun is not as beautiful as they expect. Sometimes, hope does not match reality.
