STEADFASTNESS OF LOVE
Development Project

Vania and Raihan stop the debate without finding a common ground. Both went to the office in a chaotic condition. Vania may look calm, but deep down she feels guilty. Inadvertently Vania has made Raihan angry. A husband who began to feel humiliated with his hard and barren attitude. Sometimes Vania is confused about taking a stand. When he softens and acts spoiled. Raihan feels Vania's a teen-year-old. But when Vania returned to her attitude. Raihan felt unneeded and ignored.

I don't know Vania is getting tired of the misunderstandings that keep happening. Vania might have to give in, as long as it wasn't her pride that was stepped on. Maybe she's a wife who has to obey her husband. But there are times when Vania is firm. When self-esteem as a woman is questioned or denigrated.

After leaving Raihan's house. Vania drove her car to a simple house. A house that looks comfortable and quiet. The house that Vania deliberately rented while seeking tranquility. Not many people know about this house? Only Faiq and Farah know the house where Vania seeks tranquility. Long Vania didn't come to this house. Since marrying Raihan, this house has never been occupied by Vania. Although Vania never came, there was someone that Vania deliberately hired as the ART of this house. Bik Yam is a local who cleans the house that Vania rented.

Today Vania came deliberately, not just seeking tranquility. Vania's promise to Raihan says the out-of-town project is her last job. Makes Vania have to do extra work to complete all the work she has received. Vania will get everything done as soon as possible. He no longer has the burden of work. After finishing some work, then Vania will go to the project place outside the city.

Slowly Vania stepped inside the simple two-story house. Bik Yam is cleaning the front page. After greeting Bik Yam and asking to make a cup of coffee. Vania went up to the second floor to the room where she used to work. The room that always makes Vania feel comfortable. It was as if time was spinning so fast around him. Until Vania forgets that it will be quiet that has been stored in her heart. The loneliness Vania never showed anyone else. Only a smile was always visible, even though Vania's heart and soul were crying in silence.

"Why am I so hard to understand? I never expected more. Observed and understood, the simple thing I've been yearning for. Everyone thinks I'm okay. Without them asking, what am I feeling and trying to understand what I am feeling? I won't complain about the loneliness I'm experiencing. Actually living enough that I feel, is more than enough. But is it selfish of me to feel lonely and lonely. When I have a family, but no time. Should I keep hiding in the crowd? So that no one feels my sepals. Once I tried to express my pain. When I try to express jealousy? Not the understanding I received. Only doubt and a look of anger did I see. Maybe my jealousy was wrong, so my husband was depressed about that feeling. As hard as I try to understand others. As weak as it was they immediately judged me wrong. I was destined to live in a crowd, but feel lonely without any backrest. No one will ever be able to understand my wounds. I don't know because I'm firm enough to close my wound? Or someone else who will never be able to understand the wounds implied in my every attitude!" inner Vania while looking out her window. The tranquility that he had always obtained in the quiet and silent of his simple home.

Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok

The sound of the door being knocked. Immediately Vania awoke from her daydream. Vania looked towards the door. He walked closer, then opened the door. Vania sees Bik Yam standing with a tray containing a cup of coffee and snacks.

"Mbak Vania, bibik bring coffee and small food. Later in the afternoon aunt will cook her favorite food mbak Vania. Now auntie's staying in the kitchen!" bik Yam said, Vania nodded while putting on a smile. Bik Yam put down the tray, then walked out of Vania's study.

"Thank you!" vania said, bik Yam nodded and left Vania. During this time Vania felt comfortable and calm in this house. Bik Yam loves Vania very much, he already considers Vania like his own daughter. Vania's life is far from the family's eyes, peaceful without anyone interfering and interfering.

Almost half a day Vania was struggling with her paper and stationery. Some of the work has been completed and some are still untouched. Vania began to feel tired, the sound of her stomach rumbling. Vania's coming down to the dining table. Look at some of his favorite dishes. Bik Yam is not just ART for Vania. She was like a mother who always spoiled Vania with her favorite dishes. Without taking long, Vania devoured all the food. It just so happens that Vania's pregnancy isn't too fussy. Can Vania consume anything? As long as it's not spicy and coconut milk.

At about 14:00 pm, Vania came out of her house. He's headed out of town. It was already very noon, but Vania had to still go to the project site. He had to come to say goodbye to the people around him. Because usually Vania comes once a month. After this Vania will not come. If not for something urgent.

"Raihan, Vaaz refused our offer of cooperation. He has announced his resignation. In the meantime he'll be vacuumed. Cooperation that has been established. He'll finish it soon!" sovia said, shortly after reading the business news. Raihan nodded in understanding, even though in his heart Raihan did not believe. Because Vaaz is a very great architect and sought after by many companies.

Farah happens to be in one car with Sovia and Raihan. Shut up to the news that is circulating. Although in his heart Farah asked the reason for Vaaz's resignation as an architect. Because Farah knows the truth. Vaaz dreamed of becoming a great architect. But without wind or rain, Vaaz chose to retreat when success had been achieved.

"Leave it, we'll find another architect. He is too mysterious and unpredictable. I'm sure there are others who are better than him. Have him settle all contracts with us!" said Raihan, Sovia nodded.

Today the three of them will review the location of the mega project that was handled together. Farah came in his father's place. The location is out of town and a little remote. Raihan decided to use only one car. Raihan did not feel wrong about his decision. For Farah is in the midst of herself and Sovia.

After nearly two hours, Raihan's car and one of his team's cars got into the project area. Just as Raihan's car came in. There are other cars coming in, the latest sports cars and with better sophistication. Raihan and Sovia are astonished to see the car enter the same area as them. Instead Farah was calm and even ordinary. It was as if he knew who the owner of the sports car was. The car stopped a bit away from Raihan's car.

"Vania!" murmured Farah, Raihan and Sovia turned their heads. They felt like they heard the name Vania called. Although not very clear. When Raihan asked Farah, only the headbands were seen by Raihan. As if saying Farah didn't say anything?

"Sir Rudi, I'm Raihan and they're my coworkers. We want to see the blueprint of this project. If there are no obstacles, we will immediately do the roosting!" raihan said firmly filled with dignity. Sovia and Farah just quietly follow Raihan's direction. Mr. Rudi nodded in agreement. He gave the blueprint that Raihan meant.

Mr. Rudi is not the owner or investor of this project. Instead the architect made the blueprint. The owner of the mega project that Raihan and his team will be working on. Mr. Rudi took Raihan and his team to the tent on the edge. Tents made in style, for a temporary rest.

A grand and grand design. Massive development that will be built in the middle of a small town that is far from progress. Raihan admired such a beautiful plan. A mega project that will be the biggest project of the year for his company. The value of a contract that is not playing with a profit that is not small.

Raihan laid out a development plan. He walked towards the vacant land that was ready to become his mega project development area. Raihan stood on an empty lot. The area of land that is tens of hectares, ready to be transformed into an area of progress of this city. Land to be built all public facilities. Starting from hospitals, schools from Tk to SMU and mosques that will be in one region. Raihan really wants to meet the real owner of this project. Someone with unquestionable success.

"Sir Rudi, who is there? He seems like a stranger to me. Does he always stare at that twilight?" raihan said curiously.

"She's Vania Aulia Azzahra, your wife!" sahut Farah, Raihan immediately turned to Farah. Raihan was shocked to see Farah suddenly standing behind him. Suddenly, Rudi nodded. It was true that Vania was standing upright in the middle of the empty land. He stared at the afternoon sun that turned into twilight.

"You mean!" raihan said in disbelief. Sovia smiled cynically. At least Sovia did not believe Farah's words.

"She is indeed Vania, if you don't mind. I'll call him!"

"Vaniaaah!" yelled Farah, Vania turned her head. Raihan and Sovia were astonished to see the woman Vania who was not far from him. Mr. Ridu was surprised, when he saw Raihan and Farah knew Vania.

"Mr Raihan, he's Vania's the owner of this project. Vania's sister also made the blueprint. He is also an investor in this project. Unfortunately today he came for the last time. Ms. Vania said goodbye to us!" said Mr. Rudi, Raihan was silent in silence.

From his place he saw many villagers standing not far from Vania. There is one mbil box seen next to Vania's car. Raihan was getting quieter, he couldn't think of anything? He wanted to know a lot, but to whom did he ask? The discussion with Vania this morning. Makes her reluctant to talk to Vania.

"Pak Rudi, please share the staple I brought. Please send me an apology. Maybe after this I will rarely come here. But Rudi calmed down. My help will still come and please Mr. Rudi set it up!" vania said shortly after getting out of her car. Mr. Rudi nodded slowly. He appreciates Vania very much, even though Vania's age is far below it.

"What is all this?" raihan said softly, Vania looked at Raihan fixedly. Actually, Vania never thought of saying it to Raihan. But everything has been done and must be resolved immediately.

"My hopes and dreams, after this I will not work. No more will I, all will come into being with the completion of this construction!" vania said softly, Raihan looked at the look on Vania's face. Full of calm and quiet.

"This blueprint, what did Mr. Rudi say right? You made it!" said Raihan, Vania nodded slowly.

"You Vaaz!" sahut Sovia, again and again Vania nodded. Raihan is frustrated to hear the reality that Vania deliberately kept. Raihan rubbed his face rough. He was worried about the attitude he had to choose. Should he be angry and disappointed to hear all this truth. Or is Raihan happy to see how kind the wife he married.

"Why are you silent about all this? Doesn't matter to you until I don't realize. How mysterious is my wife? I don't seem to recognize you!" said Raihan, Vania approached Raihan. He pulled Raihan's hand, then kissed the back of his hand.

"I'm sorry if you're disappointed. All of this is my dream and hope since white gray. So there's no right for me to tell you. About my work as an architect, I feel no need to tell you. As long as you don't feel the need to ask me. Our marriage almost lasted a year, but not once did I hear you ask me about my life and my hopes. So it's appropriate that you don't know me!" vania said softly, Raihan shook his head weakly in disbelief.

"You should feel entitled to keep all this. Raihan your husband, he deserves to know all about you. Not even with his arrogance you made Raihan your maid!" sovia said rudely, Farah approached Vania. She is behind Vania, defending and supporting her best friend.

"This is my project, my hopes and dreams. But I'm just an investor no more. So I'm not entitled to any development decisions. If it's a matter of blueprints, I'm doing it just for the sake of the realization of my dreams. I just want to be a beautiful twilight for the citizens of this city!" vania.

"Sovia, shut up the way I keep my husband's honor. No matter how successful I get. I had to bury her, for the sake of being a wife. No matter how much education I received. I had to close up so my husband would always be taller than me. Even the luxury and hard work I have. I will never show my husband. As much as I have treasure. It is still my husband's treasure that makes me comfortable and comfortable. The message is an order for me. His words are the law of my life!" vania lirih.
