Trauma of Marriage
1. Gathering
In the afternoon of 2011, Rani listened to music through the radio channel Gema FM. In addition to listening to music, at Gema FM also held a special quiz at the Gema FM commemoration event. Rani also answered questions from the radio broadcaster, and did not expect the answer to be correct.
The next day Rani was invited to go to the Gema FM studio which is located in the highlands near the famous Modern Pesantren to take the prize. Because Gema FM was managed by the alumni of students in the pesantren and its teachers.
Rani came accompanied by her 11-year-old sister, because if she went out alone she would not have been given permission by her mother and father.
Upon arriving at the studio, he is welcome to sit down after filling out the guest list.
Previously Rani did not know that this studio was close to Pesantren, and she was a little embarrassed because she did not wear a hijab.
On the sidelines of the event Rani took a short break sitting on the edge of the drink stand which happened to be guarded by santri putra. A few minutes later, a 10-year-old man approached her and handed her a piece of paper. Rani is confused as to what the child meant by giving the paper, she opens the paper and reads it.
And the contents are an introduction from the santri son his age. In the letter there is a hint for Rani to look in the direction that the letter is meant, and Rani also looks for someone who sent her the letter by looking in the direction in question earlier. Then there was a man who had small drugs on him with a shy smile.
Rani was asked to follow him to a higher place than the show around the studio, not far from there they were towards a cliff that was not too high.
Rani was amazed by the view from the top of the cliff, as well as her sister. The man reintroduces himself to Rani.
"Afwan I invite you here, because if there rame." Said the man
"I'm Dimas Purnama" he continued
"I'm Rani Pratami, this is my sister Alea" replied Rani introducing herself as well
"Oh yes.Where are you from? Invited radio show tah?" Ask Dimas
"I am from C, yes I was invited to take a gift because yesterday I correctly answered a quiz from the broadcaster. Where are you from?"
"Ohh you're from area C? I am from there too. In the Cc area. You?"
"Oh deket it, I'm in his K"
"K? Which side is that?" Tanya Dimas who does not know the area where Rani lives
"That was before the Cc area" explained Rani
"Isn't that area S?"
"The area is there again"
"Oooh, just found out."
"Yaa emang anyway many who do not know the name of the area even though it has been a long time but the people thought it entered the area S"
"Oh so, yaudah later again are afraid to find me. I will send my SMS to this number (give a piece of paper with a phone number). I'm first huh, gapapa going down both?" Ask Dimas to be sure
"Yes gapapa first"
"Assalamualaikum" greetings Dimas
"Waalaikumsalam" answered Rani
"Sir, take a photo here. Replace yes, now you used to" said Rani while removing her mobile phone which at that time was still java not android
"Yes, it's so cold in here that I'm wearing a veil jacket" Alea said
"It's very cold, you don't know here deket pesantren. If you have used a veil earlier. Later abis dapet gift we go straight home yuk." Take Rani
"Yuk" Alea replied in excitement
......................
Rani leaves for the studio escorted by her acquaintances from social media, arguably Rani is close to many men but all of them Rani considers friends. Don't know what they think of Rani.
Rani was picked up by the same person.
"Assalamualaikum, we go home" Rani said hello to Mother who was cooking dinner
"Wa'alaikumusalam, what's the prize deck?" ask Alea
"It's just a bottle, huh! even though it's been far there" Alea annoyed his mother
"Jaudah gapapa, can kepake, there shower already afternoon" said the mother
"Yes ma'am" replied Rani and Alea
"They used to take a shower, Pegel's sister's body" said Rani
"Yes a kaak"
"Mom, which father?" ask Rani
"Dad hasn't come home yet, he's coming" replied the mother
** night after dinner is over **

"What dear?" Answer me with a smile
"You don't? it was the same brother Lea to the radio studio to take the big brother gift, there are brother boys ngajak kak Rani kakat loh yah!" lea said to her father while glancing at Rani
Alea recounted the incident that afternoon there with excitement. Alea always told his father everything, he was very close to his father. Sometimes on weekends they go out of town together without Rani and her mother.
"Adek ssssuttss, ah you are well-known to you" Rani told Alea

......................
** 3 months after that day.. **
Dimas also graduated from a boarding school that was high school. During at the boarding school Dimas only once a week send messages with Rani that is on a learning holiday only.
After graduation, Dimas remained in the cottage while waiting for job vacancies.
Dimas would rather work than be the manager of his boarding school. For him, he was tired of being in the school for a long time until Dimas finally decided to go home and look for job vacancies from his home.
After returning home from the cottage, Dimas and Rani more often exchange news because now do not have to wait for a holiday to be able to use a mobile phone.
Until one day Dimas was invited to Rani's house to meet with Rani's father.
"Dimas, Dad I told you to play here. You want to not?" ask Rani
"In what order? you're so clingy with me" Dimas said by phone
"Yes play here silaturahim"
"Ohh yaudah, I'll be there in the afternoon"
"okay"
Dimas went to Rani's house, Dimas was welcomed by Rani's family.
"Assalamualaikum sir"
"Wa'alaikumusalam, please sit down" replied Father and let sit
"Eh has come Dimas, beware yes mother takein drink first. What do you want to drink?" ask Mom
"What a bu hehe" Dimas replied awkwardly
"Jude, wait a minute"
Dimas sat opposite Rani's father.
"Diminum yes" said Mother
"Yes mom, thanks"
"Mother stay first yes, again there is a normal homework hehe. sok a casual chat with Daddy and Rani"
"Yes ma'am."
"What year is the birth?" ask Dad
"Year 93 sir" Dimas replied politely
"Dated?" ask Dad again
"July 15th"
"It's the same as my date of birth" Dad said
Their chat is long enough and just connect until they do not realize that time shows it is late afternoon, Dimas was saying goodbye to go home.
"Udah this afternoon sir, I'm saying yes"
"Ooh yes, I don't think you know it's late afternoon haha" replied Dad accompanied by a light laugh
"Wassalamu'alaikum" Dimas regards Rani and her father
"Wa'alaikumusalam, be careful son, greetings to your parents yes" replied Father
"Eh What is your father" said Rani shyly
"Hahaha" Dad laughed at his daughter
With a pretty good background, Dad allowed them to get in touch to a serious level. Although they do not know when they will soon get married, because Dimas has just graduated and is looking for a job vacancy. While Rani is 1 year away she just graduated SMK.
