Nazwa's parents, including Dian's mother, come inside, and Rafa waits outside. Kayla on her papa's bench.


“Papa, mom why?” kayla asked in surprise as she saw everyone crying.


Rafa is unable to answer her daughter's questions, she just stroked her daughter's head.


“Mama has died Darling,” obviously her grandmother.


After almost an hour, Nazwa's body was immediately taken home by ambulance.


“We go directly there Rafa?” ask Dian's mom.


“Before Mom, Rafa wants to call Revi first, because Revi had known Nazwa.”


Rafa calls Revi and tells him that Nazwa is dead.


“So Mas has left for home mbak Nazwa yet?” ask Revi.


“Mas with her grandmother Kayla is still here and will soon be there.”


“Mas, I want to talk to mom first yes.”


“Oh yes Revi. If you can't do anything, don't force it. Mas is also not good with your fiancee,” said Rafa.


“Not really Mas. Mas Dandi also came home.”


Then Revi explained to his mother that Kayla's mother had died and that Lusi had allowed her to go to the service. After getting approval from his mother, Revi immediately called Rafa.


[“Assalamualaikum Revi.”] Rafa said on his phone.


[“Waalaikumsalam Mas Hotel. I'm coming with ya. Where is it now?”]


[“Mas is still in the ICU room and it's moving there. Are you allowed to do the same with Mama?”]


[“Udah Mas. Yes I went straight there ya.”]


[“Iya Revi.”] Rafa replied.


Not long after, Revi appeared in front of Rafa and Dian. Seeing Revi's arrival, Kayla immediately ran to embrace Revi.


“Tante...” said Kayla ran closer to Revi.


Revi immediately lifted Kayla in his carrier and kissed her cheek. Bu Dian and Rafa can only smile at Revi's closeness with Kayla. Revi seems to love Kayla. But unfortunately Revi will soon be married.


‘If Revi hadn't gotten engaged I would have proposed to her to be Kayla's mother. Kayla is very close to Revi, unlike Surti. Kayla is not close to Surti, even though Kayla does not like Surti. But with Revi, Kayla was so sticky. If later Revi under her husband, surely Kayla will lose,’ inner bu Dian sad.


Rafa who has since noticed the closeness of Revi with her daughter feels very sad because soon Revi will be taken by her husband.

Arriving at Nazwa's house, there were already many neighbors who had arrived. Revi and Miss Dian went inside and sat down near Nazwa's body. It was seen that everyone present in the room was watching Kayla. Especially when her mother Nazwa told Kayla to sit near her mother.


“Kayla sits near mama huh, Darling?”


Then Dian and Revi took Kayla to sit right next to her mother's head.


“Bu, how is her husband Nazwa. Has it been reported?” nazwa's mother asked Vina and Siti, who happened to be sitting near her mother.


“Already Mom. I called my husband earlier, but I do not expect much because the possibility of Mr. Budi will not come,” explained bu Vina.


“Sabar Bu... patience...” Bu Dian immediately calmed his ex-made.


“I am very upset with her husband Nazwa Bu.”


“Mother many istighfar yes. A lot of patience, yes hopefully her husband Nazwa opened his mind,” said Miss Dian while stroking her mother Nazwa's shoulder.


Everyone present in the room cried sadly. Both Nazwa's parents seemed to look strong, although in his heart he cried to see the condition of his son who had been wasted by his husband.


After the Nazwa family arrived, Nazwa's body was immediately buried in the cemetery. Kayla and Revi walk along the coffin to go to the cemetery. Revi is deeply saddened to see the fate of his mother Kayla at the end of his life. Although Revi had been hurt because of Nazwa's speech, but saw Nazwa's body that had been stretched stiff the pain of his heart was gone. When I saw Kayla's face, Revi was very sad.


‘Please time you Kayla. A child no longer has a mother. If only I hadn't been engaged to Dandi's mas, I would have been a mama for you Kayla,’ Inner Revi while stroking Kayla's head.

When the body was buried all the family sowed flowers on his tomb, Kayla was no exception.


“Splash this flower over mama's grave, Honey,” Revi said while giving flowers to Kayla's hand.


Kayla immediately sowed the flower in her mother's grave. Revi's heart ached when he saw Kayla who looked so strong that she sprinkled flowers on the grave of her mother. Revi was unable to stem her tears. He imagined, if Kayla was him then how sick and broken his heart when left by his biological mother.


As soon as Ustadz finished reciting the prayer, the sky was immediately cloudy and everyone who delivered Nazwa's body hurriedly came home remembering that it would soon rain. Revi clasped Kayla's hand and took her home to Nazwa. Incidentally the distance of the cemetery with the house of Nazwa is not too far.


“Kayla, papa gendong yes?” Suddenly Rafa was already behind Revi.


Revi turned to Rafa.


“Iya Mas, Kayla just aja. Pity him,” said Rafa.


“Papa's son is tired huh?” rafa asked as he lifted Kayla in his carriage.


Kayla just nodded her head.


“There are many yes Revi because it has troublesome you,” said Rafa.


“Nothing Mas,” replied Revi.


Then they walked home with the family and neighbors to Nazwa's house.

As soon as he reached the courtyard of Nazwa house, a noise was heard from inside his house. Rafa immediately panicked when he saw his mother coming out of Nazwa's house in a hurry. Upon seeing Rafa's arrival, Dian's mom called out to him.


“Rafa... hurry here...” call bu Dian.


Rafa immediately dropped Kayla off and gave it to Revi.


“Kayla same aunt first yes?” rafa said and went straight to her mother.


“What's Bu?” ask Rafa astonished.


“Come in. That's her husband Nazwa grumpy,” explained Miss Dian.


“But Rafa has nothing to do with Nazwa, Mom?”


“Iya, but her mother Nazwa called you.”


Feeling called her former father-in-law, Rafa finally went inside. Until inside there was a debate between Mr. Budi and Nazwa's parents. Some neighbors were also inside listening to the quite heated conversation. Mr. Budi who had just arrived was immediately angry and did not accept the funeral of Nazwa's corpse so quickly without waiting for him. Mr. Budi also did not consider Nazwa's parents as his in-laws. This makes both Nazwa parents feel sad and unable to argue with her husband Nazwa who is arrogant and haughty.
