STEADFASTNESS OF LOVE
The Two Greatest Women

After the magrib prayers Rafa and Hana followed the footsteps of Mr. Ali. When Rafa was about to take the car, he shook his head weakly. With a smile he pointed to a house not far from the mosque. Mr. Ali was standing on the big road in front of the mosque. Rafa and Hana followed him from behind. Mr. Ali pointed at a house with a smile.

Rafa and Hana looked in the direction that Mr. Ali pointed. A house not far from the Mushola. Both of Rafa's eyes are perfectly rounded. Ali's designated house, not an ordinary house. A large and magnificent house, compared to the house next to it. A house with a fence surrounding it. The brightest house among the others.

Rafa and Hana shook their heads in disbelief. Looking at the house appointed by Mr. Ali. A very large house, Rafa does not believe the facts he sees. Mr. Ali nodded with confidence. He confirmed what was shown? Mr. Ali smiled as he rubbed Fathan. He kissed Fathan's head softly. Rafa is more surprised to see the attitude of Mr. Ali.

"Ainun, your grandson is as handsome as your son. Finally the great lord could see his descendants!" said Mr. Ali, Rafa gawked in wonder. Hana just remained silent. He didn't want to interfere too much. His desire to come here, just want to bring Rafa to know the Ainun family.

"What do you mean Ali? Whose master? Who exactly are you? You seem to know my mother's family!" said Rafa confused, pak Ali nodded while patting Rafa's back gently. Hana saw the attitude of Mr. Ali like a brother. He seemed happy and moved to meet Rafa.

"Son Rafa, that was your mother's house. Ainun is the only princess of Pratama. Ainun left this village for your father. Gunawan Adi Prawira the young man who did KKN in this village. Ainun's family was strongly opposed to the relationship. Because Ainun has been betrothed to one of the young men in this village!" said Mr. Ali, Rafa's heart is beating great. Another fact buried with the body of the mother. Hana clasped Rafa's hand tightly. Hana felt the hands begin to sweat, Rafa's body shaking violently.

"You who? Why do you know your mom so well?" said Hana representing Rafa, Rafa's shock made his body stiff. Rafa's lips are lost in hearing the truth, which he never knew.

"For the rest of my life I worked for the great master. He is a man of honor in this village. His kindness to the villagers, made everyone know and dislike him. Ainun's departure at that time, became a proof of his assertiveness. He considers Ainun not his daughter, as he prefers to remain in love with Gunawan. The great master did not want to know Ainun. With his own hands, Ainun was handed over to the Prawira family. Since then, there has been no happiness in the house. The mansion was large and luxurious, but quiet without the sound of laughter or crying!" said Mr. Ali, Rafa took a few steps back. Her body was slow to hear the mother's story. He was wasted and not considered for the sake of his love for Gunawan. But it is not happiness that he can get, but betrayal and appearance.

"Mama is not kara!" rafa said softly, Hana embraces Rafa's body that began to waver. It was as if his legs were no longer able to support his body. Great secrets are revealed without being prevented.

Bruuukkk

Rafa's body fell to the ground, his knees hitting the ground perfectly. Both hands support his body. Rafa looked down at the ground in front of him, his tears dripping down the ground. An honorable woman humiliated in her home. A rich family princess becomes a servant in her home. A love that is steadfastly prevented, must end in betrayal. For the love of leaving family. What a great sacrifice and not worth wasting.

"Sir Rafa, we're here. We better meet Pratama's grandfather. He deserves to know his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Even if he doesn't want to see us. At least we've come this far, there's no way we can go home without meeting him!" hana said, Rafa looked up at Hana.

"Darling, my mom is not a woman to be insulted. He was born into a distinguished family. Then why does everyone consider her a maid? After that they insulted my mother. The woman who gave birth to me!" said Rafa, Hana shook her head weakly. Hana crouched down beside Rafa, resuscitating her body to Rafa.

"Sir Rafa, whatever happened first. We never know and we should not regret it. Now all we have to do. Apologizing to Pratama's grandfather, he deserves to know mama is gone. Whatever his disappointment. There is no father who will not miss his daughter. He has lived in loneliness for years. We should have apologized. Hugging his old body, he trusts the last mama Ainun. The father who raised Ainun's mother. Not the time for Rafa's brother to be weak and down. Be a child that mama Ainun can be proud of. By knowing Pratama's grandfather!" whispered Hana, Rafa turned his head in silence. She was confused as to what to say?

"Darling, what are you saying is true? We need to see Pratama's grandfather. If he didn't want to meet us. That's natural because we've forgotten him for years!" rafa said while standing up. Rafa looked at a large house. Not as big as Rafa's house, but bigger than the house around him.

"Sir Ali, is Pratama's grandfather home? Can Mr. Ali take me to see him. I want to apologize and I want to see him!"

"Son Rafa, if he rejects you. What are you gonna do?" said Mr. Ali softly, Rafa smiled knot.

"Sir Ali I came here just to get to know your family. If he refused to meet me. There is no reason I am angry. Decades I didn't know him, it was only natural that he would be angry with us!" said Rafa wisely, sir Ali nodded in understanding. Hana is happy to see Rafa's mature attitude. Rafa's wisdom will protect his family.

"We leave after the Isya prayer. The grand master is usually outside the house with his adopted grandson. A girl who has been her grandson since childhood. If you look at her as old as your wife!" said Mr. Ali, Rafa and Hana nodded in unison. It is soon the time for prayer. Finally they decided to meet the great lord Pratama after praying Isya.

"Lord, may I enter. Someone wants to meet you!" pak Ali said kindly, the sound of the door opening. Out a woman of Hana's age. Beautiful and hijab. Mr. Ali smiled towards Lisa the great lord's adopted granddaughter Pratama. With a nod of his head from Lisa, Ali walked into the room.

A very nice and large room. Judging from the design of the room, it seemed that it occupied a woman. A beautiful bed full of carvings. The painted walls are brighter, showing the character of a woman. Rafa and Hana stood in front of the room. A sense of awkwardness whistled through Rafa's heart niche. His feet were unable to move forward.

Mr. Ali nodded as he winked. Asking Rafa and Hana to come closer, Lisa is astonished to see the arrival of two unexpected guests. The door of this house has been closed for guests for a long time. The Great Lord Pratama refused to accept guests.

"Great master, look who's coming?" said Mr. Ali, Rafa looked around the room. His gaze locked a photo attached to the wall of the room. A beautiful framed photo, a photo of a beautiful woman who is none other than her birth mother. Mr. Pratama turned his wheelchair around, he looked towards Rafa and Hana alternately. Then looked at fathan clingy, I don't know what impulse? So that the Lord Pratama strongly moved his hand. The legs that had long been weak, suddenly forced to stand up.

Mr. Ali and Lisa were astonished to see Mr. Pratama walking despite staggering. Rafa stood staring at the grandfather he had never known. Grandfather who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Ainun, those eyes belong to Ainun. It's Ainunku!" said the great lord Pratama to Fathan. Fathan was held in a forward-facing position. The hand of the great lord Pratama trembled as it touched Fathan's cheek. Rafa saw the deep longing of the great lord of Pratama. Hate the parents for their children. There will still be a deep longing.

"Who are y'all? why are Ainun's eyes so beautiful in both eyes of this child. Is he my daughter's granddaughter? Is she my great-grandson?" said Mr. Pratama lirih, Hana nodded slowly while smiling. Gently Hana pulled the hand of Lord Pratama. He kissed the back of Mr. Pratama's hand. Rafa did the same, he kissed the soft back of his grandfather's hand. Rafa's tears dripped down Mr. Pratama's hands.

"Great master, this is Rafa and that's Hana's wife. He's our Ainun son. They came to visit you!" said Mr. Ali, the Great Lord Pratama took a few steps back. Mr. Ali restrained his master's body. Lisa helps Mr. Pratama sit back in a wheelchair. As soon as the atmosphere became quiet, none of them spoke. Only Fathan's babble broke the silence.

"Grandfather, forgive Rafa. My mother never told me where my grandfather was. Sorry Rafa, sorry!" said Rafa Pilu, he rested under the feet of Mr. Pratama. Hana sees Rafa's stubbornness collapsing, Rafa apologizes to his lowest point. Mr. Pratama was silent, not that he was angry. But he is ashamed to acknowledge Rafa as his grandson. With his own hand Mr. Pratama drove out his daughter. For years he lived in regret.

"You're Ainun's son, where is he now? Is he still mad at me? Tell him I'm sorry. Ask him to come see this old man. I'll pay for my rude attitude. Tell him I'm sorry!" said Mr. Pratama while rubbing Rafa's hair. Instantly Rafa looked up, staring at the face of Lord Pratama. A face similar to his mother. The beautiful paras that her mother had descended from Lord Pratama. Rafa was silent a thousand languages, unable to tell the reality that would hurt the old man in front of him.

"Grandfather, mama Ainun is already in front of you. Look at him in your great-grandson Fathan. Mama Ainun was reborn in Fathan. We came to visit you, as a form of affection and longing mama Ainun for you!" hana said while putting Fathan in the lap of Mr. Pratama. Rafa helps by propping up Fathan. Mr. Pratama kissed Fathan nonstop.

"Is Ainun dead?" said Mr. Pratama with a trembling voice. Shortly after kissing Fathan. Rafa and Hana nodded weakly. Lord Pratama's tears trickled down, she tightly hugged Fathan's body. With the rest of the power starting to weaken. He clutches Fathan, a great-grandson he never knew.

"Now there are us, grandfather need not worry. Mama Ainun has calmed down, just a prayer we can give her!" hana said, Mr. Pratama nodded in understanding.

"Ainun, may you calm down there. Thank you for letting me see my grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The happiness you leave me. Thank you Ainun, thank you!" said mr. Pratama lirih.

"Mama, thank you for being in my life. Look at the daughter-in-law I chose. He was my way to meet Grandpa. A woman who loves me with all her heart. The woman who never wanted to see me lose and was weak. Today with his love and sincerity. I found your family that has disappeared. Hana's the woman who never wanted me to get away from the people I love and love me. Mama, the woman who gave birth to me and raised me. Hana's the woman who always keeps my honor. You're both the two greatest women of my life. Thank you, without you there would be no strong Rafa Akbar Prawira unshakable." Rafa's inner.
