"Please find out who the man is, and who sent the photos to? It's very easy for you, right..? I'll pay you more if you make it tonight, let me know soon." Said Raihan to his old friend who is an expert in IT. He immediately contacted his old friend after opening a message he got from a number he did not know.
Raihan has just arrived in Padang City, Raihan prefers to drive his own car, the car he rented while he was in Padang. Raihan arrived at the house that was once guarded by Mr. Amir and his wife, but now the house is empty without residents. It's just that there are people who come twice a week to clean the house. That man is still his brother, Pak Amir's wife.
Raihan was so happy to see the big size mattress that was in the main room of the house. This time he could freely relax and straighten his body to sleep on the mattress.
Raihan shed his body that felt so tired, because that day he was so busy thinking about the problems that occurred in the branch office in Padang City. And the post of the photo, also had disturbed Raihan's mind, but he did not want to be rash and believe it just like that. He had to make sure who the man with Hasna included who the sender of the photo was because it was more important.
Raihan tried to close his eyes hoping to fall asleep so that his body and mind would relax again, because the next morning he had to go to the branch office. But his mind remembered Hasna.
"Hasna be calm.I will not easily believe the incitement of others against you. I hope that you remain patient waiting for me Hasna, I will try hard to keep my promise.." Raihan monologues himself as if Hasna is in front of him. At first Raihan's heart was hot to see Hasna who was close to men, but as she grew older and the many problems she faced made Raihan more mature in thinking.
"O Allah, my Lord..." Raihan said expectantly to his Lord.
Raihan recites the verse of the chair, and reads the prayer, wishing his heart to calm down in the face of tomorrow. And finally Raihan fell asleep.

After the dawn prayer, Hasna immediately tidied up the items she would bring back to Padang. Hasna prefers to take the bus instead of the plane, although the money is still to buy a plane ticket but Hasna wants to enjoy the trip this time, he said, there was nothing he needed to pursue anymore to get to Padang quickly, no more Grandmothers he could meet, he hugged and shared stories with her.
"Na, this is Bibik making warm tea.." Said Bi Ina in front of Hasna's open door.
"Yes Bik, thank you.." Say Hasna while walking closer to Bik Ina.
"Oh yeah Bik, Hasna left this morning alone. Bus departure time is at 9. Going to the terminal will take 1 hour more, while Hasna has not bought the ticket." Say Hasna while receiving a cup of tea from Bik Ina.
"If so, it's good to have breakfast first, Bibik will make fried rice first, not long.because the spice has Bibik prepared." Said Bik Ina with a sweet smile on her lips that looked like it was forced.
Bik Ina was actually sad when Hasna said she was going back to the village, Bik Ina was also concerned about Hasna. But Bik Ina can not do anything, he can not keep Hasna to stay there, especially the children who teach later will also definitely lose Hasna. Because since Hasna taught them to teach, the children there are more enthusiastic and diligent in learning because the way Hasna teaches is very liked by them.
"Yes Bik, thank you bik.." Hasna said politely. He walked to the small sofa in the room and drank warm tea made by Bik Ina.
Hasna did not cry anymore but her heart still felt so sore.

With a gontai move, Hasna left the house. Not to forget Hasna left an envelope on Bik Ina to give to Raihan.
Hasna walked to the highway about 500 meters from the house. He seemed to have difficulty dragging his suitcase through a road that was not too flat.
Suddenly a car pulled over and stopped in front of Hasna. A man came down from behind the steering wheel, and walked a little closer to Hasna.
"Where are you going Na?" His astonished speech saw Hasna dragging a suitcase of clothes. He took a look at Hasna's face so that he could see Hasna's puffy eyes.
"I want to go back to Angga's village.. Because my business here is done." Hasna said without looking at Angga's face.
"What are you riding on?"
"Bus is good, brother..."
"No, thank you, I can take a taxi." Hasna rejected it subtly.
"Na, let me help you, this time..." Angga said with hope that Hasna accepted his offer.
Hasna glanced at Angga's face, quickly bowing, saying,
"But. is that okay, brother? I'm afraid of troubling you, brother.."
"It's okay Hasna. I'm glad I could help you." Said Angga with a sweet smile rising from his handsome face.
Want it to feel Angga can accompany Hasna to Padang, but his business in the area is not finished. And indeed after the business is finished, Angga will continue to fly to Padang. Angga is a very successful young entrepreneur. So he often involved presentations in various regions in developing his business.
"Na, if you want to open your heart to me, I'm willing to take Roby's place to be your life partner Na.." Said Angga in his heart.
"All right.." Short Hasna. He was actually a bit hesitant because in the car they would be alone. But he also could not refuse Angga. In the taxi, Hasna will be alone with the driver, Hasna thought. And maybe it's safer he's with Angga, because Hasna already knows Angga well.
In the car, an awkward atmosphere enveloped them. Hasna was silent, her gaze far out the window.
"Ma.." Call Angga to Hasna, who wants to break the silence between them. But the direction of his vision remained focused forward.
"I-yes, brother." Saying Hasna stuttered.
"If I may know, you're crying out, right..? Is there a serious problem that's happening to you again Na?"
"Nnng, no brother.. I just missed Grandma last night..."
Angga does not believe in Hasna. But he also did not dare to ask a lot of Hasna even though his heart was eager to know the problems that befell Hasna and wanted to help ease the burden experienced by Hasna.
Silence was again created between them. Until they reach the Bus Terminal.
"Thank you, brother.." Hasna said then she got off the car. Angga also got out of the car and helped bring down Hasna's suitcase from inside the car.
"Thank you again, brother.."
"Sama-sama, I say goodbye first, you are careful on the road, if you may. I ask for your mobile number.."
Hasna wrote down her phone number on a piece of paper. He thought there was no harm in him giving the number to Angga, although later he also intended to change the number.
Not far from where they were standing, a pregnant young mother dressed all covered and her face also covered in a veil was busy with her cell phone. Hasna had a glance at him, and Hasna thought the young mother was busy taking selfies. Because the pose is as if it is selfi ria.
"Hahaha, I'm so happy Hasna.. And these photos will make Raihan's heart hotter of course.." Said the young mother with a carefree heart. It is Dini. He smiled with satisfaction at his efforts as if he had managed to keep Hasna away from Raihan.
