The Love Story of the Village Girl
The Puzzle of Ervan's Life

All had gathered to eat the food that Nino finally managed to make, and after eating the food was sure the children were reunited to continue their game

Sekar who felt their game was interesting joined by the children, and certainly Nino would follow wherever Sekar was. Only Ervan and his wife remained there

The two of them looked towards Sekar and the others who looked very happy with their game

"Is that what you call a family? Nino even looks happy playing with them"

"Kids seem to love playing with his sister Sekar"

Ervan looked directly at his wife

"Did he also forbid you call him mother?"

Citra replied with a nod of her head and a faint smile appeared on Ervan's lips

"I'm sorry I can't do what Nino did"

"Ga sis' problem, maybe because I'm not a great woman like Sekar" smiled sincerely

"Who said you weren't a great girl? you're a woman who's never complained about all my attitude. I just can't get out of the shadows of the past"

"During our marriage have you ever felt sorry for making me your husband?"

The image shifted its gaze towards Sekar and the others

"Had it not happened, I would never regret being your wife, brother, but honestly I often feel disappointed with your attitude. But the longer I've gotten used to your attitude brother"

"I'm sorry"

The image rounded his eyes perfectly because he felt surprised, because he could feel the sincerity of Ervan's speech even though his position was not facing towards Ervan. He looked directly at Ervan with teary eyes

"Why?"

"Do you know? this is the first time you've apologized to me that sounds sincere"

"I'm sorry that I can't be a good husband to you all this time, my old offer will stay in effect until any time"

Suddenly the feeling of the image disappeared and turned into a bitter smile

"Why at a time like this do you have to ruin the atmosphere anyway?"

The image threw her face in the opposite direction and without feeling her tears dripping, she quickly wiped her tears

"So I was moved because you apologized to me, but now you offer me that deal again. Did I still mean nothing to you?"

Suddenly Sekar was in the middle of them and was embracing the shoulders of the two of them

"Why are you brother? join yuk play with the kids"

It turned out that from now on Sekar had noticed the actions of the two of them, and when Citra's face seemed to start to grieve he began to take a stance and approached them

Citra only replied with a smile and followed Sekar's wishes, while Ervan chose to be in the same place while continuing to look at his wife

"I just want the best for you, whatever you choose I will always support. Because forever maybe I won't be able to change"

The image was already in their midst, he tried to keep smiling but Sekar could feel that at that moment the smile that Citra gave just to cover up his true feelings

"Actually what is between brother Ervan and sister Citra huh? the moment between the two of them could change drastically"

The clock has shown almost ten o'clock in the evening, Ervan and his small family finally say goodbye to go home. Ervan and the children had started to step foot towards his car, but suddenly Sekar called Citra

Citra stopped her steps and walked towards Sekar, while Ervan and her children continued their footsteps. Sekar also hugged Citra's body when he saw Ervan was already in a place some distance away

"I don't know the problems between you two, brother, but as a wife never give up. We wives are strong women, I will definitely help you make Ervan aware"

Sekar let go of his embrace and stared at Citra with a sincere smile adorning his lips

"We are now a big family, we have to support each other"

Citra replied with a sincere smile, she finally understood why everyone who was close to Sekar could change. Including her husband who had always been cold

Ervan and his family left the residence Nino, along the way they just kept quiet and talked as necessary as has always been the case. Their children were asleep in the back seat

Unlike the Nino and Sekar who are now lying on the bed, with the position as usual makes one of Nino's hands as a pillow for Sekar

"I'm glad I asked you something"

"What do you want to ask, honey?"

"But you have to promise that you will answer honestly"

"Dear I promise, what do you want to ask?" kiss the head of Sekar

"Why do I feel the relationship between Ervan and his wife is a bit strange, huh?"

Nino immediately shifted her eyes so that their eyes did not meet each other

"Honey.. You promised me you'd pinch Nino's stomach"

"Why don't we talk about our family, baby?"

"You made a promise" raised his lips

Nino could no longer ignore Sekar who had behaved like that, or he would make himself difficult by himself. With a heavy heart Nino decided to start telling stories

"I used to be close to Ervan because she saved my life when I tried to kill myself, she made me realize that my mom there would be disappointed if I did that"

Sekar immediately changed his position so that he could look at Nino's face

"But do you know why little Ervan saved my life that night?"

"What dear?" shaking his head

"Because he knew I was going to do that, because he almost did that too. But Ervan is a strong-hearted person, he managed to get up without anyone's help and move on"

"Dear time?"

"We both harbored feelings of disappointment with the family, the difference between us at that time was that I still had sweet memories of mama. But Ervan doesn't have fond memories of anyone"

"Can you tell me about Ervan's brother as I love you?"

"The story of Ervan's life is too long dear" stroked Sekar's hair gently

"I'm ready to hear you story" gave a hopeful look

Nino also smiled at Sekar's behavior, Nino kissed Sekar's head gently

"Yes you're ready, how is our baby? we slept at night"

"But I want to hear, baby"

"I promise I'll tell you the same story tomorrow"

"You promised me yes"

"Yes dear" kissed the tip of Sekar's head once again, and began to hug Sekar's body so that Sekar could fall asleep
