"Doni just shut up, sitting glued. Sometimes he rubbed his head violently. No more words he said. She was shocked to hear Rani's answer. He did not expect, Rani had taken such a big decision just to protect her family's self-esteem. Even his own family did not think about his pride.

After Rani's return home his parents, Rani even got a slur from both parents.
On that night, a quiet night shrouded by fog longs for the figure of Geri who always Rani longs for her presence. Rani could not close her eyes. Both of his parents constantly blasphemed him with bad words. Rani, who was lying in her room, could only cry out for her fate. Really, he did not expect his fate would be this bad. The pain now felt all over his body when he heard the chatter of his parents in their room.
Between his parents' room and his room which was only blocked by a plywood it made Rani could clearly hear the chatter of her parents that night.
"It's a shame, a sudden marriage! Mr. Badrun grumbled to his mother.
" Hmm, just got married, sir! Gerrutu Bu Romlah chimed in the words of her husband. "Bikin was embarrassed, what the neighbors said later if they knew the Rani came home alone from her in-laws' house.
" Yes, you cheap lady. "Anyway against men, that's finally it.
" Every school is melon*e, don't know shame.
"Udah is buk, if basically cheap, free school. " The edges will also be lon*e.
That's how the husband and wife's chatter was mutually disheveled throughout the night, feeling deafening. Rani's heart that has so much to bear the wounds, even more hurt to hear the slurs from both parents.
"Tomorrow Mother had to take her home to her in-laws. " Let's not make him shame us.
"Yes sir, in our family there is no such thing as a widow. Miss Romlah chimed in on her husband's words.
" Yes, he will only be a burden and will drop our pride. Mr. Badrun confirmed his wife's remarks.
Feels like being whipped repeatedly, Rani's body immediately limp helplessly resisting the pain and wounds in the heart that increasingly festering. It feels Rani is not able to withstand the burden of her life, it feels like she really wants to end her life.
Instantly, Rani runs into the kitchen, then she takes the kitchen knife. With a trembling body, he grasped the kitchen knife he took in a spoon container located on the dining table. When he was about to pull the kitchen knife towards his stomach, he immediately expressed his intention.
"Astaghfiullah! "Astagfireullah! Astagfirullah!
Rani beristighfar repeatedly then inhaled deeply and then exhaled. Rani does not want her life to end in a way that is not diridhoi by Allah SWT. That is why he has abandoned his intentions. Then he put the kitchen knife back in his grip to its original place.

After a pitch-black night that left wounds for Rani, now comes the light. The sun seemed to show its charm, as if dancing nari from the east. Warm and beautiful atmosphere in the morning, but not with the mood of Rani at that time.
Bewitched that Rani's ears back in the deaf by the ravings, nyinyiran and blasphemy from the mouths of her parents. They never get tired of insulting Rani. The blood ties they had, seemed to have been forgotten. Rani feels alien in her own parents' house. In that moment, Rani felt increasingly worse and humiliated, her pride was hurt by the rude and dirty words thrown by her parents.
"When you have breakfast, get ready. The orders of Miss Romlah to Rani. " Mom will take you to your in-laws' house. Said Ms. Romlah when they were having breakfast together.
"But Mom, I just got home. It was Rani who was reluctant to go back to that hell house. "Where I needed to be like Ma'am's maid, I didn't want to go back to that house.
" You are a slacker, it's only natural that you feel needed as a maid. Deny Miss Rom it was who cornered Rani.
"Mom, I don't know how they treat me. " I can't stand Mom.
"All right, you want to be what if you live in this house, huh? " You will be a burden and a shame. "If at home in-laws must be diligent, can not relax.
" But Mom, though,
"Oh, there's no buts. Anyway you should go home to your in-laws. " Who told you to get married, yes you have to take the risk alone.
" Lemas Rani's body, instantly lost was his hope to be free from the mansion. Rani can only accept reality. The hope that he had just built, was instantly shattered beyond silence.
It feels heavy for Rani to step foot into the house that has traumatized her for a marriage relationship. The journey to her father-in-law's house, Rani went through with anxiety and fear. Rani is worried about her fate, like what she will go through next in the house. "Rani was afraid that her suffering at home would get worse. During the trip, Rani just fell silent lamenting her fate that was getting worse. Just pensive and silent.

On the other hand, Doni, who has learned the truth about Rani's marriage, immediately calls Geri to give news. Doni sat on the porch of his house to relax while calling his best friend Geri. Coincidentally that day he was not in the lecture hours, he thought they could relax while chatting.
"Assalamu'alaikum! Hearing from across the phone Geri's voice said a greeting when the phone call from Doni was connected.
" Walaikumsalam! "Hey Ger, how are you? Sapa Doni friendly.
" Good dong, how are you? The man asked in a friendly manner.
"Sama, I'm good. Typal Doni with his signature smile. " Oya, Geri yesterday I met Rani.
"Oya, where? "How's don? " Is he okay don?Oya, Geri yesterday I met with Rani. Geri stormed Doni with a series of questions to make Doni feel funny with the behavior of the time.
"Please dong, I'm done talking. You invaded first. Gurau Doni relaxed to Geri. While Geri just grinned to hear the words of friends. " Geri, yesterday I just returned from the field.
"Certainly? Ask Geri curiously.
" Yes, as the BUS car I was riding through the district****Rani was waiting for public transportation to return to the city. And Rani also got in the same car I was riding in.
"Certainly?
" The situation is very concerning, Ger. "I am sad to see her, her appearance changed drastically. " I barely knew him.
"meaning? Ask Geri curiously.
" Well, she came home alone without her husband.
"Yes, do you still remember the area where Rani lived?
" Yes remember! "Oya Ger, I feel sorry for Rani. Said Doni in a flat tone, his memory immediately laughed remembering about his meeting with Rani at that time.
" why? Ask Geri more curious.
"Ger, kekemarin Rani got angry by the bus kernet we were riding.
" Why, how can you? tanya Geri cut Doni's sentence because she was surprised to hear Doni's story.
"Yes, because he doesn't have the money to pay for the transport. Reply Doni in a soft tone. " He was to be driven away told to get down by the bus car kernet.
"The hell's the Doni? " Would she have a husband, why would she?
"I also forgot nanyain. " Understandably, I was already shocked to hear Rani's confession. Said Doni then sighed that felt heavy. "Oya ger, it turns out Rani was forced to marry.
" why?
"He was forced because he wanted to save his sanctity from his father. Bright Doni with a somewhat awkward tone.
" Pantesan! Timpal Geri, his memory glared for a moment. Still vividly remembered in his memory, at the time Rani called him one last time. Still clearly remembered by Rani who suddenly invited her to marry.
Geri's body drowned as boneless, after hearing the news of Rani and the reality of Rani. Really, he was very sorry because he had doubted Rani and had refused to marry too soon. He never imagined Rani's fate would be that bad. Geri felt very sad, imagining what the suffering of the lover he loved so much was like.
