The Love Story of Arka
CHAPTER 11

This week the funeral was held at the home of Monica, Vanessa's mother. Widya came with a driver who used to drive her wherever she went.

“Welcome .. “ greet Bu Monica when you see Bu Widya coming. Ms. Widya smiled as she hugged Ms. Monica and the chips.

“Tante Widya .. “ greet Vanessa when she just came out and saw Bu Widya just came. He reached out and kissed the back of Bu Widya's hand.

“Vanessa huh? Very beautiful today .. “ flatter Bu Widya when seeing Vanessa. Vanessa was deliberately groomed and as beautiful as possible today, so that Widya was interested in him and intended to make him a daughter-in-law.

“Thank you Aunt .. “ reply Vanessa while playing her hair and smiling shyly.

Not long after that, Arisan and eating together began. After eating with Vanessa approached Widya.

“Tante ... can we talk for a minute?” vanessa asked half a whisper so no other mothers could hear her.

“What's up?” asked Bu Widya in surprise while frowning her forehead.

“Talk it in aja yes Aunt ... “ invite Vanessa. Widya agreed to it.

When Vanessa got to her room, Vanessa closed the door.

“Please sit Aunty .. “ Vanessa invites Bu Widya to sit on the sofa in her room.

After Widya sat down, Vanessa started telling stories. He tells Widya that Arka and Tia have been dating for a long time, only that Arka is hiding it. He also said that Tia is just an orphan girl who lives in an orphanage and can attend a favorite High School because she gets a scholarship.

“What?! So she's just an orphan girl from an orphanage?” bu Widya asked surprised by the explanation she heard from Vanessa.

“Iya Aunt .. “ replied Vanessa politely.

“Why didn't you say the same aunt from before?” ask Bu Widya disappointed because she just found out now.

“Last week Vanessa wanted to say to Aunt, but it looks like Aunt is busy. So Vanessa didn't have time to talk to Auntie .. “ reply Vanessa gently.

“Maafin aunt yes .. “ said Bu Widya while stroking Vanessa's hair.

“Iya, nothing Aunt ... “ reply Vanessa with a smile.

Yes succeeded! Inner Vanessa was happy and satisfied.

After the ceremony was over, Ms. Widya immediately slid into Arka's apartment. He will ask for an explanation from Arka. But when Bu Widya arrived at Arka's apartment, he did not find Arka there. Arka Apartment uses a key in the form of a password, so that Bu Widya and Pak Hendro can enter at any time because they know the password of Arka's apartment.

“Where is this child?” mumbling Bu Widya was annoyed after searching for Arka all over the room but did not find Arka. He sat on the sofa in the living room and called Arka's cell phone.

Meanwhile Arka sat on the porch of Tia's orphanage with a cold. Tia felt sorry for a long time. He opened the door and brought warm tea to Arka.

“Minum .. “ said Tia while putting warm tea on the table. Arka looked up and smiled. After putting the warm tea, Tia was about to re-enter, but Arka held her back by holding onto Tia's wrist.

“I beg you, don't leave me. What wrong? Say ... I will fix it and not repeat it again .. “ Arka told Tia in a raucous voice. Tia closed her eyes suppressing her feelings.

“I no longer love you Arka .. “ replied Tia without looking at Arka. His eyes are already glazed. His heart was broken when he said that. He had to do this for the sake of Arka's happiness.

“You must be lying, right? Look at me!” said Arka while holding both shoulders Tia. Tia turned her eyes elsewhere. He did not want to look into Arka's eyes. He was sure Arka would know his true feelings through the sight of his eyes.

“Why won't you look at me?” asked Arka while holding Tia's chin and pointing Tia's face towards her. Tia cried while looking at Arka.

“Sorry Archa .. It is better that we part ways. Look for another woman who is better and equal to your family. I do not deserve to be with you, Arka .. “ Tia said while shedding tears.

“Why are you suddenly like this?” ask Arka in front of Tia's face.

“Listen to Me! I told you I would do anything to keep our love. Don't you trust me? I will fight for our love, so please be patient, do not leave me.. “ Arka also began to cry. Her heart ached as Tia said she wanted to separate from him just because of the difference in social status.

Tia looked at Arka and hugged her tightly and said, ” I'm sorry Arka ..“ Arka returned Tia's embrace.

“Your phone .. “ said Tia on Arka when she saw Arka's phone vibrate and turn on. From earlier Arka's phone vibrated, but because it was too serious to talk to Tia, Arka

no matter the phone.

“Leave it .. “ Reply Arka still hugs Tia's body.

“But it vibrates constantly Arka, may be very important .. “ reply Tia while pointing Arka mobile phone vibrating on the table.

Arka took off her arms from Tia's body and took her mobile phone vibrating on the table. Arka saw caller ID showing name “Mama”. He immediately shifted the green button on his phone screen.

“Hallo Ma .. “ greet Arka.

“You where Arka?” ask Bu Widya across the phone.

“At my friend's house Ma .. “ replied Arka calmly.

“Quick return! Mama in your apartment,” Bu Widya's orders.

“But here it still rains Ma .. “ said Arka lazily.

“No excuses! Mama wants to talk important!” reply Bu Widya then disconnect the phone. Arka looked at the screen of her dead phone.

“What's Arka?” tia asked who from earlier noticed Arka talking on the phone.

“My mom is in the apartment right now. I must return immediately .. “ replied Arka while getting ready to leave.

“Heart-heart Arch. Don't speed, slippery streets .. “ Tia told Arka. Arka nodded with a smile.

***

Arka arrived at the apartment after riding her motorbike in heavy rain. He saw his mother sitting in the living room waiting for his arrival while drinking tea.

“What's Ma?” ask Arka to Miss Widya.

“Where are you from?” ask Bu Widya firmly.

“Home friends Ma .. “ replied Arka while sitting next to her mother.

“Who?” ask Widya again.

“Why Mama want to know once?” asked Arka while frowning her forehead.

“You have a girlfriend now?” asked Bu Widya while staring at Arka.

Where did Mama know? Inner Arc.

"No Ma .. " replied Arka casually.

"Don't lie Arka!" hardik Bu Widya's. He is the type of person who does not like to be lied to, especially his own son. He comes to Arka's apartment to find out the truth from Arka's own mouth.
