The End of the Road

The End of the Road
Chapter 104's


The day has changed. Time has gone so fast. It doesn't feel like Arkan's wedding has arrived. During this one week Bara was busy helping with the preparations for Arkan's wedding. He even forgot the message from Arin because he did have to focus on the event.


That morning everyone was busy. The event will be held at home. Because their house is big. Even with a fairly large page.


They deliberately did not invite many people. Just their family and close friends. And some of their colleagues.


Bara looks neat. He looks more handsome wearing traditional Javanese clothes. I also forgot to wear a blangkon. It feels like a prince of the kingdom.


The ijab kobul event was held at eight in the morning. It was finished two hours ago.continued the reception. Also a good guest coming. Although he said only relatives and close friends, but it turns out their families are very much. In addition to his friends they turned out to be a lot as well.


Fortunately, they prepared everything carefully. So everything can be overcome. Food included. They have prepared everything with all the possibilities that occur. Thank God everything went well.


The day has afternoon . But there are still many guests coming. Actually they were a little tired because they had not rested at all. Guests come in turn.


A couple must be ready to welcome guests until eight o'clock tonight. Mother already looks tired. Bara feels like mommy. But because this is a show. I can only pay attention.


"Mother eat first. From earlier I saw that my mom hadn't eaten."


Bara approached while carrying a plate of rice .


"Well you, Mama again welcomes guests to eat."


"I am ready to sit down. Mumpung deserted ma.."


"Ok well.all right. You're always maksa."


Finally mom gave up. Actually he was hungry and tired but because this is in a state of party it is not possible also mama run away from responsibility. Mum is a little quiet mama take advantage of the time.


"Papa would also . Hm you I just love mom."


"Diihh .. your papa will too. Hungry too, pa."


"Yes.. From then on guests come incessantly."


"Nih .. You two eat alone. I want to see guests."


I handed the plate to my mom. Just get off the stage. A friend came. He should accompany her.


Just now that papa had eaten two mouthfuls, from a distance he saw someone he really wanted to meet. Papa was surprised too. Finally the person he had been waiting for all this time came as well. Papa got up from his seat.


"What's the matter Pa?"


Mom was surprised to see what her husband did. She stood up and looked where her husband was looking. Mama saw a couple who looked familiar walking towards them.


"Pa. instead of that Yanto and Ida. They came pa. We can finally meet them again."


Mom walked to the guest. He could not wait to meet a friend who had not met for a long time.


"Yanto, jeng Ida.."


The guest was surprised to hear the sound. It was unexpected that the host greeted him so well.


"Jeng Mia's.."


It turns out that came father and mother Arin. They are friends who have not met for a long time. Mother hugged Mia, her mother Bara. They let go of each other's longing. Tears flowed from the two middle-aged women who still looked at her beauty.


"It's been a long time since we've seen Mbak. Ma'am anywhere. We're looking into the old house that turned out to have moved."


Her mother Bara wiped away the tears that fell by herself. He was so happy to meet his best friend again.


"I moved home after my third child was born."


"So now my son is three.. I'm still two.. Duh happy to be the child mbak has grown into beautiful girls."


"That's how it is. hehehe.."


While Mr. Yanto only looked flatly at Hary. He just stayed in the place waiting for his wife to meet kangen with his friend.


From the stage Hary looked at Yanto longingly. But he saw Yanto looking at him coldly, expressionlessly. Hary knows that there is still a misunderstanding between them.


Hary got off the stage and approached Yanto. Then measure the hand intending to greet the guest.


"Thank you for being present."


Hary was very grateful that Yanto returned his hand and shook it tightly


"It's not over with our business.."


Yanto whispered in Hary's ear but smiled. He had already forgotten about the events of the past.


"How are you, friend.." Hary looked at Yanto. "Still as brave as ever. Nothing has changed except your hair. Ahaha.."


"It turns out you admit that I'm still the most dashing. Ahaha.."


"Old is still narcissistic as well..But I'm glad you wanted to be at my eldest son's show. Let's go up first. I'll introduce you to my two children."


Yanto followed Hary's steps. So too with Ida. The two of them walked up the stage to congratulate the happy couple.


"Congratulations Arkan. Sakinah mawadah.."


"Thank you, um.." Arkan looked towards the papa. He forgot the person standing in front of him.


"This is Om Yanto. He used to play ball with you.."


Hary explains to Arkan who apparently forgot to Yanto. Probably because twenty years have not met.


"Oh yeah remember, Arkan remembered. Om Yanto who often took me swimming in the river.. What's up om .. thanks for being present."


Arkan kissed Yanto's hand with reverence. Arkan used to be very close to Yanto in his childhood. Arkan often visited Yanto's house first.


"Alhamdulillah we are good.. You are big now yes. Not that you have a sister. Where's she.."


" Yes jeng, let's try the dish." The mother invited her guests. He served his special guests.


Mother Arin nodded and followed the host towards the dish table.


They enjoy the dishes while chatting. I don't know why the guests suddenly went quiet. The host feels the situation is very supportive for the arrival of this special guest.


While they were talking, it was seen at the entrance that another guest came. Hary looked at the entrance. He saw a group of guests coming. It turned out that Sutejo and his extended family attended. There's Maria, Fian and Andra. Adam was with his family too. Hary approached the guest and let him in and let him go on stage.


Yanto looked in the direction Hary saw. Yanto. He should approach the guest. But Yanto just kept quiet.He was again busy with the food he held. He and his wife just stood on the spot enjoying the dish without even looking at the person. It was as if they had not seen their arrival.


Hary approached the newly arrived guest.


"Sutejo. hi how are you.long time no see. Thank you for coming."


The called one was surprised. He feels very flattered. The host who has a wish immediately welcomes his arrival.


"Alhamdulillah Hary ... It's flattering to be welcomed by those with wishes. Ahaha.."


"You are special guests. This must be Maria. Still looks pretty. Andra and Fian also came. Mercifully.. Let's get on stage. I'll introduce the bride."


They walked to the stage. From far away Yanto only saw them.


"Bund, eat it fast. We're going straight home."


"Why Well, just came.It's okay. Long time no one's seen them."


"Mother knows why dad."


"All right, Dad."


Mother quickly finished her food. Fortunately, he took a little. They saw the old n house was still busy with its guests.


"Let's get our mother home. It's over for food."


"Are we not saying goodbye first Dad."


"But they were busy welcoming their guests. Just stay away from far away. They look here, bund."


Yanto gestured to Hary. Yanto clenched both hands in front of his chest, then pointed his fingers outwards. Followed by wife.


The two of them deliberately went home quickly because there was Sutejo and Maria. Yanto only anticipates things they don't want. Not to interrupt the event. Yanto chose to give up even though he still wanted to talk to a friend who had not met for a long time. But what power than later can even mess up the party atmosphere.


Seeing what Yanto was doing, Hary hurriedly approached Yanto. He wanted to prevent Yanto from rushing home.


"Eh. Where are you going. So rushed. New also came. There's still a lot of food that hasn't been tried."


",I'm sorry, we have to go home soon. There's a cake order to be made."


Yanto gave a reasonable reason. But it's true that there is a cake order. They don't lie.


"Ok alright. But next time we have to meet again. There's still so much I want to know about where you've been."


"Sure, I still miss you too . Then we say goodbye first. Good luck with the show. Assalamu'alaikum..."


Yanto shook Hary's hand tightly. And so did Hary. Seems like I haven't wanted to be separated. But Yanto can't be held. Yanto wants to go home soon.


"Wa'alaikumsalam. See you next time."


Hary looked at Yanto's departure. He breathed a heavy sigh. He knew he felt guilty too. Twenty years ago, the wound was so deep in many people.


Yanto was able to breathe a sigh of relief after coming out of Hary's house.


"Dad, mother.kok here."


"Eh, Bara boy. Yes .. attending a friend's wedding reception. Is it for you too."


Bara was surprised to see Arin's parents present at the wedding reception of the brother. But just now he said hello, the phone ringtone rang.


"Sorry Dad, mom. I answer the phone first. From that day on it sounded."


"Please son, then we go straight home. Let's Nak.."


",Eh, Dad, mommy is in a hurry. Sorry Bara can't accompany."


"It's okay. Excuse me, Bara. We go first."


Mom and Dad are leaving soon. Just a glance. Had there been no phone, he would have delivered Arin's parents home.


" Well, Nak Bara is there. Guests or family."


"Either bund, but when viewed carefully, there is a resemblance between Bara and Hary. Hary's son Hary's number two."


"Yes too. It could be so. Come on, bund, let's go home. Later cake your order is not finished how."


"Yes Well, But the net is slow.We go home what's up."


"Naik angkot's. We're moving forward a little."


They both walked while talking. Father actually still wanted to linger meeting with Hary, There is something he wants to ask. But the mood is not supportive. Someday he will come back to this house to clarify all the questions he has kept in his brain all along.


While Sutejo, Adam and Hary are still talking. While welcoming more and more guests. They talk until the show is over.


Eight hours of the event is closed. They all felt tired and wanted to rest immediately. No exception Bara. As the host, he was busy welcoming guests who did not stop coming. Many guests came even though they did not receive an invitation. Fortunately, there was enough food. Because everything was anticipated.


Everyone went into the room and rested. While outside the decoration officer was dismantling the tent and at the same time tidying up all the equipment used. Tomorrow morning everything should be back to clean as before.
