News of Grief


Anton was still busy trying to vanish Kamila's body when her phone rang, but he let it ring.


"Mas, pick up the phone first, who knows it's important."


"Because, isn't our game so hot" Anton said, noting his wife's ear, accompanied by a sigh that grew increasingly roaring between the two. But the phone never stopped ringing.


"Mas, please pick up the phone first."


'Just interrupt.' Anton said as he muttered.


[Hello.]


After picking up the phone, Anton's face suddenly changed. Kamila also panicked to see the change in her husband's face. Tears were pouring down Anton's face.


"Mas, what's wrong with you?"


"Mila's father, Dad died."


"Innalallahi. We have to hurry to go to Jakarta Mas."


Kamila was crying in Anton's arms. A few moments later after calming his feelings, he came out of the room, then woke Amanda, Brian, and Kevin, not to forget Mba Murni was invited to go to Jakarta to accompany them.


"Bi Siti, please pack the children's belongings" said Kamila who was still so busy preparing the equipment to be brought.


When Kamila was so busy packing, Anton could only sit in the room and was shocked to hear the sudden news. "Mas, hurry up and book a plane ticket, we'll have to fly by the earliest flight."


"Yes dear."


After finishing packing, they finally headed to the airport to go to Jakarta. By the time they arrived, Caesar's house seemed to be full of mourners. Caesar, his wife and their two children sat in front of his father's body. Anton and Kamila approach Anton's father's body to see it before the funeral. They then cried in front of the body, Kamila seemed so devastated at the departure of her in-laws, because all this time her father-in-law was the one who supported her relationship with Anton the most.


"Goodbye, good luck and be able to meet with Mom again" Kamila said while crying when she saw her body in-laws go into the burrow. Anton and Caesar were silent, their faces implying a deep sadness, but there was no crying between them.


"Mas, are you okay?"


"Yeah." answered Anton.


Amanda was actually also so devastated by the departure of Opanya, she who was so close to Anton's father since childhood was so lost.


The funeral was over, and they all returned home. At dinner, Anton and Caesar who had not met for a long time, quite long chatting at the dinner table, while Kamila and Fani, Caesar's wife chose to watch television.


"Mas Anton how long will it be in Jakarta?" ask Caesar.


"Maybe it's only three days, a lot of work to be done, because next week Mas and Mila have to go to Jambi."


"To Jambi? What's Mas for?"


"Mila's relatives are married..."


Unfinished Anton continued his words suddenly the house bell rang. "Bok, please open the door" Caesar said.


Mbok Iyem seemed to rush to open the door, then went back in and met Anton and Caesar. "Sorry sir, there's a mourner ahead. He said he just got back from Australia straight here."


"Australia who? Isn't Rebecca now in Singapore?"


"Let's go, I'd better meet you."


The two of them then met the guest who was now sitting on the living room sofa.


"Good night" Anton said.


The woman stood before Anton and Caesar. "dance, Caesar. Long time no see" said the woman while smiling so sweetly.


"Chyntia." Anton replied as he gulped.


"I'm sorry about the passing of Om Frans, I happened to be returning to Indonesia, and then I got word that Om Frans died, so I came straight here."


"Caesar please call Kamila to accompany me." Anton whispered to Caesar.


"Good Mas."


"Please sit back Chyntia. How are you doing right now?"


Anton just smiled wryly at his words.


"How are you Anton? I heard you've remarried to your ex-wife?"


"Yes, I've remarried to him, and now we have three children."


"Well, you're amazing, Anton, since she seems like she's the only woman you love."


"Yes that's how Chyntia is. Then how are you? Where's your husband and your son? Did they not come back to Indonesia?"


But Chyntia just laughed. "Anton back then I was really heartbroken, because you're the only man who rejected a woman as beautiful as me."


"Then?"


"Well, you're curious about me too, Anton. Haha."


"I'm sorry I thought you would treat my parents, not to talk about something personal like this Chyntia."


"Mas." suddenly Kamila was already standing behind them.


"Oh baby, sit next to me and introduce this Chyntia."


Kamila then smiled and extended her hand to Chyntia, but Chyntia just sat down without replying to Kamila's hand. Kamila was actually feeling so upset, yet she was acting mediocre.


"Your wife is beautiful Anton, but it's a little bit of a village" Chyntia said with a laugh.


"Chyntia please take care of your words, if there is no more business with me, you can go home now, we are tired and want to rest."


"Please Anton, why are you so angry? Look your wife's not angry. Is that Kamila?" Chyntia.


Kamila only smiled at Chyntia's words.


"Chyntia, sorry but we're tired and want to rest. Good night." said Anton as he opened the door.


Chyntia who looked so upset then came out of the house with a grumble. 'See you Anton, if I had given up, it would have been because I wanted to keep my image in front of your mother, but now I would have brought you to my knees.' muttered Chyntia while leaving the house.


Anton then invites Kamila into the room. "Where are the kids, baby?" anton said as he made small talk.


"Kevin and Brian were asleep, and Amanda was chatting with Fani" Kamila replied. She approached and struggled in her husband's body.


"Mas, so that's the Chyntia you were once going to be betrothed to?"


"Yes, but I've never been interested in him."


"But she's beautiful" said Kamila, mocking.


"Beautiful, dear." replied Anton while holding his wife's body. As Anton approaches Kamila, the door to the room suddenly opens.


"Amanda."

A couple stood in front of a luxurious house. "Pa, look at Randi's house, it's only been seven years since we left this house, it's been changed Pa. See the building of this house is now getting bigger and more luxurious."


"Ma, this is Vienna's house not Randi. Remember that!"


"Just like, what a difference."


"Beda Ma, Randi used to just hitchhike."


"Basar Papa restless."


The man shook his head at his wife's words. As they were about to enter the house, they suddenly saw a female figure coming out of the house and would get into a car parked in front of the luxury house. They rushed to the woman. "Vienna..Vienna."


The woman looked surprised at the arrival of the husband and wife. "Om Rusli, Aunt Fatma, why are you coming so soon, isn't the wedding still next week?"


The two wives smiled in embarrassment. "We miss you and Shakila, Vienna" Fatma said with a smile.
