Raiz clasped Adela's hand tightly when Irfan's body had been covered flat by the ground, now in front of Irfan's body did not cry anymore until Adela sprinkled flowers on top of Irfan's navel.


Adela rubbed a headstone that read the name of the man she once loved.


"Bang, happy you're there. May the path of Abang be bright. I'm sure you're happier than here. After the journey of Abang by bringing love Abang even though the path Abang wrong. I'm sure God loves you Brother, thank you for everything we've been through. My love will always be there for you in the form of prayer."


"Son, I'm sorry, Mom. " Say Mother Inggrit, Mamah Irfan is approaching.


"If we had always agreed, maybe Irfan was still alive and happy with you. But because of our selfishness, Irfan did something that was never on our minds." Mother Inggrit said back.


"This is a lesson, enough we both are like this. " Said Adela.


"We're sorry. "


"Already Ma'am, maybe it's Bang Irfan's way." Adela.


"Son, you can come with us to the house. "


Adela turned to Raiz and her husband allowed her to nod her head to fulfill Ms. Inggrit's orders.


"Wait."


Adela and Raiz turn it turns out Kinanti called Adela .


"What's wrong? " Task Adela.


"I didn't expect her love to be so great towards you, and you should know in each of her sleep only your name is what she always calls you. I am sorry for ruining your relationship. " Answer Kinanti.


"I'm sorry it's too late, Bang Irfan is gone. There's nothing to talk about, because the person in question is gone. For me Bang Irfan is my past, and beside me this is my future. Even though my love for Bang Irfan was dead, my sense of him remained. The heartache that was once treated by my present priest. But to say sorry, it's too late 'Bang Irfan is gone."


"Just want to tell me, you won't be sorry I'm okay. But every night your name he always calls even consciously calling me is your name. "


"Thank you for being told."

"It's his, he said it's a gift from you. Irfan threatened never touch the goods - the gift of Adela if I want to obey the orders of Mamah Papah. And this is for you that Irfan hasn't had time to give." Mother Inggrit said giving her a set of jewelry.


Adela turned her head towards Raiz, and Raiz shook his head.


"Sorry Mom, I'd better keep it. As a memory of Bang Irfan."


"A set of jewelry might be this for your dowry, she prepared everything herself without us knowing. He really wants to marry you. "


"Mom, yes you should not continue our story. If Banget Irfan is sad later, I have also sincerely released Bang Irfan and I am now happy with my partner. It's too late and it'll never get things back."

"Mas, how did you stay silent? " Ask Adela .


Raiz breathed out violently and smiled at Adela.


"Jealous, I'm jealous." Answer Raiz.


"I'm sorry, that's part of my past."


"It turns out there's a man who's greater in love than Mas. And he was even taken to death. "


"For me, love Mas Raiz the greatest and sincere."


"Is it true that Irfan was dead long ago? "


"Since we broke up and his two parents didn't approve of me the sense it was dead, and it grew back when I got divorced with Mas but that's me learning to love her back because it's still a bit of the same taste Mas. Even slowly lost but slowly easy to forget it is not the same as Mas slowly lost still a little impregnated."
