TRAPPED IN A MARRIAGE
AS WELL AS HIS NAME

Ninu said goodbye to Sharif when the driver came to pick him up. Ninu had already told him what he was going to do tonight. Ms. Sharif supported her because she thought that repaying someone's kindness was a commendable act. Unfortunately Agis had not come home from work so he did not know this. While Arman's husband Agis is out of town.

“Please miss” the driver opens the car door when they arrive in front of a large whitewashed house. A very luxurious house according to Ninu.

Ninu came down hesitatingly, his eyes not paying attention around the house. The door of the house opens a woman dressed in black and white welcomes her, “Welcome miss, please enter” the greeting is friendly while bending her body.

Ninu nodded his head with a smile, “Thank you” he replied

From inside appears Haris with a short-sleeved shirt stelan and jeans. He looks very handsome. Ninu did not blink looking at him.

“I ask for your help for tonight only, be reasonable” Haris voice disperse his charm.

Ninu nodded his head.

“Come in, I introduce you to my mom and papa”Haris hand grabbed Ninu's fingers and held him.

At once Ninu's heart raced very fast. His hands became cold instantly, his steps became stiff.

“Reasonable attitude” whispered Haris in Ninu's ear making him even more awkward.

“Mr...” Ninu's voice choked.

Haris glanced at him.

“I need to take a breath first. I grogi” Ninu's voice is almost inaudible.

He paused for a moment and then adjusted his breath. While Haris looked at him while shaking his head. Soon he pulled back Ninu's hand to enter the living room.

“Ma. Pa...” Haris's voice sounded as soon as they entered the living room.

Diandra and Hendrawan who were sitting directly stood up while smiling when they saw Haris who came while holding the hand of a girl.

Ninu nodded his head saluting Hendrawan and Diandra.

“Goodnight ma'am, pak” the sound is smooth.

“Goodnight...”.Diandra answered while stretching out her arms to hug, then splashed with Ninu.

“You're so sweet. What's your name nak?” tanya Diandra was still embracing Ninu's shoulder.

“I Ninu bu”

“Ah... cute name like his person” Diandra smile wide.

Then Ninu shook hands with Hendrawan.

They are kind and friendly people, inner Ninu, I feel guilty for lying.

“Let's sit here near mama” take Diandra with Ninu's hand and lead him to sit next to her, "Don't call mom and dad, call us mama and papa, ya” he continued.

“Betul Nin, soon we will also be your parents right?” connect Hendrawan

Ninu smiled as he glanced at Haris who was looking at him.

That night Ninu became the center of attention and the center of conversation. Diandra and Hendrawan pamper Ninu very much, whatever he offers. Food and drink were all proffered at Ninu, not to mention Diandra's hands that could not be separated from stroking Ninu's back or rubbing his hair.

While Ninu smiled more and only spoke to answer the questions given by Diandra and Hendrawan, while Haris was more silent as if he did not care.

The word Diandra Ninu is very sweet and cute. He's very happy.

Not felt the day is getting night but their chatter does not subside even more familiar.

“Ma, it's already night Ninu have to go home” voice Haris stop chat Diandra and Ninu.

“Why not stay here?” diandra was a little disappointed.

“M…. Don't be so, later Ninu even so afraid” voice Hendrawan make Diandra realized, “Mama too aggressive” continued Hendrawan chuckled.

“Im sorry mommy yes son. Mama is too happy to see you” her hand back to Ninu, “Often come here. Don't hesitate”.

Ninu smiled as he nodded his head

“Come Nin I drive home” Haris grabbed Ninu's hand.

“Oh yes, mama forgot. Here's a gift for you nak” Diandra took a little blue velvet box, then pulled out the contents.

“This is a gift from my mom for you. Don't take off ya” he said as he paired a tiny white necklace with a heart pendant on Ninu's neck.

Ninu could not resist.

“This is a sign of our affection for you” Diandra continued his remarks.

“See this Haris! Beautiful isn't it?”

“Iya ma” reply Haris.

“You are so sweet nak” back Diandra kissed Ninu cheek, “Place phone mama ya” he continued.

“Iya ma, inshaallah” replied Ninu smiling. His heart was very filled with the tenderness and kindness of Diandra. He feels very loved.

“Thank you for helping me” Haris voice broke the silence. They were now in the car on the way to take Ninu home.

“Sama-sama sir, I am glad to be able to help”

“Master, this is the necklace I returned” Ninu's hand touched the necklace was about to release it.

“Not necessary. You just wear it. That's mama's gift to you”

“But master..”.

“Already, don't have much to say”

Ninu was silent.

I don't think they've arrived.

“ini for you” Haris thrusting a white envelope, “You will be home tomorrow right?” continued.

“What is this sir?” ninu did not dare to take the envelope that Haris had proffered.

“Slightly for you. You can buy for souvenirs or needs of your sister in kampung” replied Haris.

“Oh no need sir, thank you” hand Ninu reject it, “I help you sincerely just like when you helped me. Besides to go home I have prepared the money”

“Take. I don't like being rejected” Haris voice sounds a little loud.

Ninu was a little scared.

“Take!” haris exclaimed, allowing Ninu to spontaneously reach out to retrieve the envelope.

“Down”

“Good sir. Thank you” Ninu got out of the car and walked inside the house without turning his head. His heart is fucked. He doesn't want to take Haris' money. It's the same as getting paid when I'm going to help him repay his kindness.

That night Ninu told Agis what he had experienced. How she was treated so special by Haris' parents and how Haris forced her to receive an envelope from him.

Actually Agis somewhat disagreed Ninu did that but Miss Sharif said that repaying someone's kindness was a must, let alone that person had asked for it. The issue of the envelope given by Haris to Ninu according to Ms. Sharif should not be thought too deeply. Haris is a rich man of course it is not something that is heavy for him.

In the morning Ninu returned to his village alone. He meets Ima and the family of bi Tati. After taking off each other's homesickness together on a pilgrimage to the mother's grave. Ninu unceasingly cried pouring out his sadness and longing for mother. His heart was filled with all the feelings that could not be expressed other than with tears.Bi Tati and Ima were only able to witness all the expressions of sadness that were shed by Ninu.

For three days Ninu was in his village to take care and arrange everything. He left Ima to his aunt's family. Ninu could not bring Ima with him to the city because the Ima school which was only a few months away would complete his education at Junior High. Ninu promises Ima to send Ima to high school in the city.

While their homes will be occupied by children of Tati who have married. Ninu did not intend to sell the house because it held many memories.
