The Love of the Inmates
Happy tears

***

4 Years later, Maria finally managed to finish her studies with very satisfactory results. Maria is very happy, especially her parents and Raka is certainly very proud of her.

The next day Maria will be graduated, Maria hopes that her family and Raka can attend her historic day.

"Good night, Mas Raka..." Message I sent.

"Night." Raka replied to my message.

"Mas, tomorrow don't forget well,"

"Forgot what?"

"Jeez, just a week ago I forgot,"

"Yes, I remember. Mas just a prank just want to frown on you, now surely your eyebrows wrinkled and your mouth is too cute." he replied with a laughing emoji.

"Not funny."

"Yes sorry. I promise you, tomorrow will come with a surprise."

"What surprise?"

"Secret dong.."

"Secret everything, not cool,"

"If you know now is not a surprise dong,"

"Give up,"

I'm really curious, what surprise will he give you tomorrow? The contents of my head began to guess, imagining the surprise that Raka had promised. Instead of feeling calm, my head became dizzy.

Suddenly Raka called me, once twice I didn't pick up. But instead of stopping, he kept calling me.

"What the hell, malem-malem callin continues. I want to sleep, sleepy." I said lie.

In fact, boro-boro can sleep, which there I keep thinking about the surprise he will give tomorrow. Duh, I can't wait for the night to pass quickly.

"Yes sorry, if Mas bothers you. Mas just wanted to tell you that Laras is there tomorrow morning, Mas has rented it for you" he said.

"Laras, who?" my many.

"That bar, the owner of Mama's salon. I deliberately told her to dress you up tomorrow."

"Duh Mas, don't go. It can be, too,"

" It's forbidden to refuse." An answer that can't make me wince.

"Give up." the most appropriate word for confronting a Raka.

"Ok, after dawn he's there,"

"hem." um."

After the call ended, I rushed over to sleep.

But when it was just closed, suddenly my phone vibrated back, it turned out that my mother called me. I sat down immediately and received his call.

"Hello ma'am, Assalamualaikum" I said.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, have you slept?" ask Mother.

"Not yet, ma'am" I replied.

"It's tea, just now there's a man who made clothes for mom, bpk, and adekmu. But the man didn't tell him who sent him, because before his mother he was gone. What did you send?

"No, not ma'am."

"Is it possible that Raka's son sent?"

"Yes ma'am, I'll ask Raka."

"Yes, that's it."

"Yes ma'am, Assalamualaikum,"

"Wa'alaikumsallam."

After that, I immediately contacted Raka back, sure enough to guess Mom, it was Raka who sent clothes home. Aky immediately contacted Mom again, to tell if Raka sent her.

The day that was waiting arrived, I woke up early, I saw the wall clock at exactly 4 am. I decided to take a shower and fulfill my duty as a Muslim. When I finished I immediately ate the bread I bought last night for breakfast this morning.

At exactly 6am, suddenly someone knocked on my door. I opened it turns out a woman was standing with a tentengan.

"Sorry, I'm Laras. Mr. Raka sent me here" he explained.

"Oh yes, please come in. I'm sorry it's such a rough place" I said.

Ms. Laraspun began to prepare clothes and cosmetics that I will wear.

"This mother is her clothes, I'm wearing them first" he said, giving her a hand.

I also immediately wear it, after finishing Mbak Laras also began to dress me.

"Mother Maria was lucky to know Mr. Raka, he was a good man. Mbak is lucky to be loved, many women are expecting his love, but none of them he lyrics. He blatantly refused and said that he already had a future wife" he said.

"Wife candidate??" my many.

"Well, and Mr. Raka said his future wife was named Maria, that's Ma'am's name, right?"

Raka can say that, even though I have not accepted her love. But somehow my heart flowered to hear the words of Mbak Laras, is true with everything Mbak Laras said about Raka.

An hour passed and finally finished, I looked at the mirror that reflected my face. I was amazed by the makeup of Madam Laras, I look very beautiful. I can't even believe that the face I saw in the mirror was my own. Mbak Laras just smiled looking at my expression while reflecting.

"Not wrong is the choice of Mr. Raka. Mbak is very beautiful and good, hopefully you can mate," he said, while cleaning up make-up equipment.

"Too excessive this Baras Mbak, I am not as special as that Mbak. I'm just a country girl who was born into a simple family" I said.

"That's special, Sister Maria has always been humble" he said.

"It could be this Mama Laras,"

"Yes, Maria, I said yes,"

"Yes, thank you for bothering to come here,"

"Yes, you're welcome."

Ms. Laraspun set her foot away, after that I immediately got ready to go to campus.

But when I got outside the boarding gate, I saw a car lying in front of me. After I saw it was Raka, which made me amazed it turns out that in his car there were my mother, father and sister.

"Teh, come on in," call my sister.

"But, is the taxi ride online?"

Shortly after the taxi my order arrived, but Raka immediately went down and imported the taxi driver, I saw him give money in red 3 pieces. After the taxi left, Mas Raka walked up to me.

"When did the cab go?" my many.

"Udah Mas cancel, come in." he replied casually.

I went in and sat in the back seat with my mother and sister.

"Teteh very beautiful, rich angel," praised my only sister, who is now a teenager.

"My brother is already able to fight," I said while hugging him.

"Emang is still beautiful, especially now is very, very beautiful" he praised again to make me happy.

Mother, father & Raka just smiled at our conversation. Shortly after we arrived, we immediately entered the hall that had been provided.

"Why, smile?" I asked for pleasantries while sitting next to Raka.

"No papa, look at you. You're so pretty, '" She said.

"Gombal." I said.

She smiled just looking at my expression.

"Wait for your answer" he whispered in my ear.

Well, Raka billed my promise two days ago, that I would answer her love four years ago.

"Ok, I will answer it later after graduation," I said at the time while talking to him.

I accidentally said that, because Raka was challenging me at the time.

Soon after the event began, one by one students and students were called, as well as me. I was so happy to be a scholar, I saw my mother crying when she saw me, especially when my name was called the best student in my college.

Mother was crying more and more, as well as the Father. When I came down, I immediately hugged Mom and Dad, I did not feel my tears dripping on my cheeks.

"Happy darling, finally your ideals are achieved" said the sobbing mother.

"Yes ma'am, it's all thanks to mom's do'a."

"Father is very proud of you, son," said the father to me. My sister suddenly hugged me tightly while shedding tears, only this time I saw my sister crying in tears.

"Dee dear teteh, ade proud to have a sister like teteh. Ade promise, ade will be like teteh," he said.

I was also more excited to hear my sister's words.

"Congratulations, well" Raka extended her hand.

"Let's say, this is all thanks to you. Thank you for making my dream come true" I said softly, not feeling my tears streaming back.

"It's all your destiny, Maria. I'm just an intermediary" he said, rubbing my shoulder.

I did not waste this happy moment, I also immediately took photos with the people who contributed to my life.
