Roses That Were Almost Plucked By the Bladder's Father
Chapter 14

With a shaky step, Geri headed to her vehicle. He came home with all the hopes, happiness and promises that he and Rani had made. Disappointed, Geri rode his motorcycle. How devastated and frustrated Geri was at that time, how not her beloved whom she loved so much was married to another man. Imam, is a friend of Rani since childhood has married her lover. Still vividly remembered in her memory the words of Rani and her husband's priest.

"Rani, who is he? The priest asked in a slightly snapping tone, which made Rani stutter in fear.

" In diaha

"I'm her lover, Geri continued the sentence that came out of Rani's mouth.

" Rani, come in! Bentak Imam ordered Rani not to interfere with his conversation with Geri. But Rani still did not want to leave, did not feel tears had wet her cheeks. "Rani, I told you to come in. Snapped the Imam again with an increasingly high tone. Rani immediately ran into her room.

" You are so rude when you talk to girls! Jerking Geri emotions, because seeing the person she loves being yelled at. Of course Geri felt very angry, because during his relationship with Rani, he never snapped at Rani at all or was angry with Rani.

"That's up to me. Tell the Imam with his. " Listen, don't you ever see Rani again. Rani is my wife. The priest threatened Geri with a still high tone. "If you dare to disturb Rani again, I will finish you off. The priest threatened Geri with pride.

While Geri can not do and say anything, he just kept quiet and passed home carrying the pain of a betrayal committed by Rani. Not that he was afraid of the Imam, Geri kept quiet and went straight home because he did not want Rani to be hurt by the Imam. Because the Imam looks like a man who has no respect for a woman.

Upon Geri's arrival at home, Bu Sofi who happened to be sitting in the living room with her fellow tourists felt confused and surprised to see the arrival of Geri who looked like a person who was being frustrated. Geri's sad gaze and reddened eyes from enduring the immense pain and pain had made the mother feel worried. Going to therapy, he saves first his year's curiosity before his friends go home. Geri headed straight to her room to calm down. The dream that he had built up over these few days ended in betrayal by Rani instead.

On top of the bed, Geri lay down. His eyes stared blankly at the ceiling of his room which was light blue. Noiseless, her tears felt unable to flow. Only the sound of his heart rumbled, between two sides. On one side Geri felt a very painful pain due to the betrayal done by Rani. Here, Geri still loves Rani and still not sure if Rani married because Rani betrayed her. Geri thought, something must have happened. Therefore, before returning to Jakarta Geri intends to find out what caused Rani to make a decision as soon as possible. Geri's mind wanders to reminisce about the times when they were together. It hurts, it hurts to remember all that. However, he must remember her to find a side that can make Rani betray him.

"Ger, Geri! it felt as if someone rubbed Geri's shoulder gently making Geri flinch from her daydream.

" Eh, I Mother. Geri was nervous about facing her mother. "When did mom come here, Mom? Tanya Geri then got up and sat down on her bed.

" Hmmm, that's been it, son. Timpal Bu Sofi shook his head repeatedly and sat down next to Geri. "What's up, son? How about a dream, hmm? Gently and worriedly, Bu Sofi stroked his son's hair.

" Eh, um nothing, ma'am. Timpal Geri nervously as he tried to hide the sadness in his heart. A mother's heart cannot be lied to. Bu Sofi knows exactly what Geri is like.

"Son, you don't lie. Said Bu Sofi pausing his sentence. " Mom's story, what's up?

"Mom, Geri was from Rani's house.

" Continue, why are you sad? Bu Sofi sighed then continued her sentence. Not that you already miss Rani, hmm why? Ask Bu Sofi gently, feeling cold in Geri's heart.

"Mom, Rani is married to another man. Geri spoke in astonishment, as it held back the shock that felt increasingly enlarged in her heart.

" Loh, why? "Don't you guys love each other? Tanya Bu Sofi tried to calm her son by embracing his shoulder.

" I don't know, Mom, I don't know why Rani is. Geri said still trying hard to accept the reality.

"Is it possible that he has been in a relationship with other men for a long time, as long as you are in Jakarta?

" I don't know, Mom, maybe. Geri's thoughts drifted, recalling the moment she visited Rani. He remembered the harsh attitude of the Imam. "You don't know, Rani's husband is very rude to Rani.

" What do you mean, son? "why are you talking about that? Ask Bu Sofi curiously.

" Yes rude ma'am, before me Rani was yelled at by her husband. Geri said with clenched hands. Instantly she felt annoyed at remembering how Rani's face at the moment yelled at by her husband. Looks like tears began to seep out of her beautiful eyelids. Rani's body that looks very thin and unkempt makes Geri become pity.

" Yes, ma'am, why didn't Geri think about it. Geri regretted her prejudice against Rani, when she recalled two months ago Rani called her to ask her to marry. Geri is increasingly convinced, if there is something with Rani's marriage. "Thank you, Geri hugged Bu Sofi spoiledly. Geri is determined to find out the cause of Rani's marriage.

The next day, on a sunny morning Geri intends to meet her friend Doni during High School. Doni is a friend and best friend to Geri. Only Doni knows everything about him and Rani. In the morning, Geri set off on his favorite motorcycle to go to Doni's house.

Upon Geri's arrival at Doni's house, Geri saw Doni sitting on the terrace with a cup of tea and a small plate of fries with sauce sambal at the table.

"Eh, you ger? Sapa Doni was friendly. " Have you come home from Jakarta?

"Udah, said Geri with a sad gaze while taking a sitting position next to Doni. " Don, do you know that Rani is married? Geri asked Doni to start their serious conversation.

"Hmmm, actually I know Ger. But.

" But what? Geri asked cutting the sentence that Doni was about to say. "Why don't you tell me the same story? Geri spoke in a high tone, because he felt the heartache of his best friend did not want to be straightforward.

" Ger, I don't want you to be so unfocused in Jakarta. I don't want you to be hurt, you know, Rani married her best friend as a kid.

"What's? A pal? Geri was surprised by Doni's explanation. " Why did he marry his best friend? Gerious mutterings wondered in his heart.

"Yes Ger, best friend. Doni Timpal.

" Don, you know, Geri paused the sentence for a moment and then continued the sentence again. Two months ago, Rani was convinced I was married.

"Keep, timpal Doni enthusiastically.

" Yes at first I refused, then Rani directly contact Los with me. He never called me again.

"So, you went back to Jambi to find out about Rani?

" Yes, I also went home and asked my parents for permission to marry Rani.

"continue, did both of your parents ngizinin?

" Yes, but Rani is married. "Don, can I ask for your help, right? Ask Geri expectantly.

" It can, with pleasure. Geri said smiling while gently patting Geri's shoulder yes. "What do you want for help?

" Can you not find out why Rani suddenly got married? Geri's smart to her best friend.

"That's about easy Ger, even I can kidnap Rani for you. Gurau Doni amidst their serious chat to melt the atmosphere. " Oya, I forgot to make nawarin you eat the fries, let's eat them. It's mom's make. Doni feels bad for forgetting something.

After Geri and Doni chatted for a long time, it didn't feel like the day was starting late in the afternoon. Finally Geri decided to say goodbye to go home.
