That afternoon Wulan returned shabby, the former tea flush had left a stain on her pink shirt. The eyes of Mbak Nita and Wiwit shocked to see Wulan who walked like a zombie, did not express a bit and continued to walk straight into the house above him.
When Wiwit wanted to get closer to Wulan, with immediately Mbak Nita's hand blocking, he gently stroked towards Wiwit.
" Let Wulan alone!!, " said Ms. Nita to Wiwit.
" But Ma'am, "he said it was disconnected.
" Heavy things must be happening to him, we don't bother him, give him time alone, " explained Mbak Nita back.
Wiwit finally obeyed the words of Nita's mother who was worried to see Eulan's condition. At home, Wulan entered with her steps directed to the bathroom. He wants to be clean immediately from the former tea water flush earlier.
It didn't take long for Wulan to take a shower. In the room he sat in the chair of the dresser listlessly. Tik.., without realizing it the tears fell. And a second later the sound of Wulan's phone ringing sounded. He grabbed reluctantly, and saw the name Mas Rendi there. Wulan answered the phone from Mas Rendi heavily.
" Wulan, where are you??, "he said in an anxious voice to Wulan.
" Ditoko, "wulan replied heavily.
" Thank God, Mas is soon there, "he said hurriedly.
There was no reply from Wulan, immediately the communication was cut off.

That night, Dr. Dessert closes faster. Somehow Mbak Nita took the initiative to end the sale that day. Wiwit and Desi also began to improve the remnants of bread that was not much more.
" Sir, we have finished the leftover bread in the basket" Wiwit said.
" Oh, well, thank you".
" Sir, Ma'am Wulan is not papa??, from earlier he did not go down?, "asked Wiwit who was anxious.
" Hhmm.., "reply Ms. Nita with a murmur while looking upstairs with a glance. But suddenly the sound of the store door being opened, it made Mbak Nita also Wiwit compactly turned towards the door.
Mbak Nita and Wiwit were a little surprised because the one who came was Mas Rendi.
" Wulan??, "asked Mas Rendu with an anxious face, then approached towards Mbak Nita and Wiwit who were sitting in the kitchen.
" Above, " replied Mbak Nita quickly.
And soon Rendi stepped, but her step stopped because it was blocked by Mbak Nita who handed something to Rendi's hands.
" Take this, he hasn't eaten yet".
Rendi just picked up, then walked back towards the upper rungs of Wulan's house. His steps stopped in front of the door that was not tightly closed. And look Wulan who was sitting in her tiny tv room by holding a small pillow. Rendi walked in, her steps towards Wulan's seat, and now she stood in front of Wulan.
" What, are you okay??, "he said, sitting next to Wulan.
Wulan nodded without looking at Rendi, her eyes fixed on the tv that showed the news of the night in silent mode.
Rendi pulled Wulan's body into her arms. He knew Wulan wasn't okay.
" What did you say to you??".
Wulan did not answer.
" I'm sorry Mom, if...,"
" He gave Wulan 1 billion, " said Wulan flatly.
" Wulan thinks he can continue to survive, with Wulan's lack of clear will not give happiness to Mas. But it doesn't seem to be, "he said in a heavy voice.
" What do you mean??, " said Rendi confusedly.
" Before things got too late, Wulan thought to stop, "he said seriously looking at Mas Rendi's eyes.
" Let's just end our relationship, Mom".
" Wulan??, " said Mas Rendi in disbelief.
" Wulan is tired.., really Wulan is suffering with all this, so Wulan please end our relationship, "he said with tears that began to fall.
Rendi was completely struck by Wulan's statement asking to end their relationship.
" You don't love Mas??"
" The more Wulan loves Mas, the greater the pain Wulan receives. Mas, go back to the wishes of the Mas family, "pinta Wulan.
" WULAN!!!, " snapped an angry Rendi by shaking Wulan's body.
However, Wulan immediately pulled the ring she was stuck in by force. And he grabbed onto Mas Rendi's one hand and gave it back violently. Then Wulan woke up leaving Mas Rendi who was fixated with Wulan returning his application ring.
Wulan went into her room and closed the door immediately, and her body fell with her hands closed her mouth trying not to make a sound of crying.
For some time, Rendi was struck by a severe shock. But he got up and walked to the door of Wulan's room.
" Well, if it wants you Wulan, it will go from your side. And Mas hopes you will regret, "he said heavy.
And rendi turned to step towards the door of Wulan's house and went down.
Wulan kept trying to hold back the cry that she had been holding.
" I'm sorry.sorry Mas, "he said crying.
Wulan realized he hurt Mas Rendi again, but he really could not survive to continue with Mas Rendi. There is a big wall that separates, and there is something that will become a big storm in the household later that will backfire for them.
That night Wulan continued to cry until the cry made her fall asleep in agitation.
