"Ma, is there any koko Juna in the room" said Juna

Salma went inside to check what Juna was asking. He also invites Dira, let his daughter-in-law know Juna's stuff in his old room. Dira enters Juna's room which is 3x4 in size. Room like a single man, with a mattress size of 160x200.

"Ma, let me find you" said Dira

Salma stopped her activities. He sat on the bed to see how Dira worked. Salma knew Dira had been used to serving because her daughter-in-law's house had a maid.

Unlike his family who have assistants only in Lembang. While in his old house did not wear a maid at all.

"This is Koko." Dira pulled out a white shirt.

Salma nodded. Dira also tidy up Juna's clothes when picking up clothes. Finished cleaning the closet, Dira did not see her mother-in-law in the room. Mama Salma's fall was out of the room.

Dira took a deep breath. There is a sense of groggy when his work is noticed by his in-laws. Mama Salma did not comment much. But the name that is watched in-laws is not good.

All this time he knew Mama Salma was good as a father-in-law. Never a fuss or a lot of comments about his household. That's what he proved when they were one week in Lembang at the wedding one year ago.

Mama Salma always treated herself like a child and also a friend. So too with Ayu. Yes maybe if Ayu he's been friends since childhood. It was also early in the morning that they cooked together. Mama Salma also took herself to the morning walk.

"Dear." Dira's daydreams were broken when her husband was in front of her.

Dira immediately gave Koko white belonging to Arjuna. Closing the door to her husband's room. He painstakingly unbuttoned the man's shirt. Juna looked at his wife.

"Do you see that?" Dira was troubled by the look of her husband. Flirtatious glare.

"Am I dreaming?" said Juna.

"meaning?"

"Am I dreaming of an angel descending from the sky? beautiful angel that I don't feel like I'm going to be gone forever."

"Start, deh." Dira put on her husband's koko shirt button.

"It is from the deepest heart. The voice of a husband." Dira felt Juna's hand getting tighter. Flicking Dira's nose.

After she finished wearing clothes for her husband Dira came out of the room. Followed by Arjuna who is neat with white Koko and basic black pants. Dira took the shawl to go on pilgrimage.

After leaving with two mamas. Juna also invited Dira to go on pilgrimage to the tomb of papa Johan and Delia. Eating both is still complex.

Arriving at the tomb, they found Rian sitting pensively in Delia's tomb. There was a pity seeing Rian who was still very grieved. Juna also took Dira to the tomb of papa Johan which is located in front of the main fence.

The two squatted while cleaning the grass around the tomb. Johan's last tomb Juna saw is still plain cement now has been replaced moss-green marble.

"Assynolt, pa. This is Juna coming with Dira, papa's daughter-in-law." said Juna.

"Assynolt, pa. It's Dira. Sorry if Dira could just look at papa now. A lot has happened in the last year. Dira also apologizes if all this time has not been a dream daughter-in-law of papa. Dira also apologizes if there has been an attitude that might offend papa either intentionally or unintentionally."

Dira recalls one week in Lembang after marriage. Papa Johan was still being cold to him. Dira realized that from the beginning of their relationship, the father-in-law could not accept him. Because for Johan his dream daughter-in-law is Delia.

"Honey, I'm sorry for representing papa. If there is an attitude of papa who has offended you all along. I also know that papa has not accepted you as his son-in-law. You want to apologize, papa?"

"Mas, I'm sorry papa. She never hated me either. It's just that we're not too close. I'm sure papa is a good man. Just like his son who is very good."

The cup!

Juna landed a kiss on Dira's forehead. Dira rounded his eyes. They are in the tomb. Juna even made a friendly scene in front of the tomb.

"Mas," Dira glared at her husband.

"Now that's his expression. I'll be as gnarly as you, that."

"It's not good like that in front of the tomb. Old man said, be polite in a sacred place. Like in a tomb."

"Yes, sorry. That's proof of my love for you, baby."

"Let's pray, Mas. After that I want to look at Delia. Later in the afternoon there will be tahlilan at Delia's place." Juna and Dira finally complete their pilgrimage at the tomb of papa Johan.

They moved to a new tomb. The tomb of a man they thought was like a brother. The tomb of a woman that once existed in Arjuna's heart.

There was no more Rian around Delia's tomb. They think that Rian still needs some time alone.

Dira sat next to Delia's headstone. Dira brought a basket of flowers to sprinkle on top of Delia's tomb.

"Allalamaicum, Del. How are you doing? last time we meet you will go to Singapore for treatment. I didn't think it was our last meeting. I'm sorry, Del. Last time I scolded you.

I know your anger at that time because it was sad over the passing of Brother Juna. But he's not leaving, Del. He's home, he's gone Del. The Juna we love is back.

Del I'm sorry if all this time there's been a mistake with you. I'm sorry if I ever became a thorn in your relationship and sister Juna. I promise Del. I take care of Brother Juna wholeheartedly. I promise." Dira cries remembering her best friend is gone.

As bad as Delia, she was once a figure Dira admired. Like anything Delia in the past, she once lent her shoulder when Dira was down about Wawan. He also defended Dira in the school bully.

"Allalamaicum, Del. How are you doing? I didn't expect you to leave so soon. I'm sorry if I ever hurt your heart. Maybe I'm the bad guy in your eyes. Although I often say the same to you, there are efforts there is also a point of fatigue.

Del, I hope you calm down there. You're actually a good man. I'm glad I ever got to know you closer. I'm glad to have a sister like you, Dira and Eka." Juna said as he rubbed the gravestone that read "Adeliana Shahab."

They eventually left the cemetery. Dira seemed to be silent without a word.

"Dear,"

"Yes, my mom."

"Are you angry with what I said to Delia?"

"No, Mas. I know you have more memories. So why should I be angry."

Juna smiled at his wife's reply. He was relieved that Dira did not feel jealous of Delia.
