08.00 WIB – TPU Bogor

Raindrops accompanied Rayendra's funeral procession to his final bed. Four TPU officers worked hard to dig burrows before the rain grew heavy, a number of men shoulder to shoulder to shoulder to put up a board as a retaining soil pile when the bodies were inserted. Mas Doni, Dirga and Raditya come down to the burrow to deliver their brothers to his resting place. There were sobs and cries of the mother who called her favorite child, she still could not believe her second child had gone forever. The chants of the holy verse echoed throughout the diet to accompany the buried corpse.

Rayendra Saputra is a father of three daughters whom he has never met. A husband of a wife he has not officially divorced, as well as a husband of a wife Siri whom he has not officially married. A man full of ideas and ambitions, behind his optimistic soul, there are weak feelings for women. He is easy to love, he will love with all his heart when his love is adrift. No matter right or wrong, for to him love is only intuition. He went home leaving millions of regrets, regretting not happy his mother, regretting not hugging his baby, regretting not enjoying a happy time with his puja, and the biggest regret is an apology that has never been said. His mouth remained silent until the apology he had brought to death.

Renata's tears continued to flow, just as his dreams and hopes were buried in Rayendra's departure. In his eyes, Ray is a charismatic man who comes to bring love, water with a million compliments, and caress with property and department. The figure he relied on to be a father to his son, and made a backstop in his old age.

In another corner, there was a woman who was still standing staggered by suffocation, her limp body being hugged by Nadine. Rania sobbed while reciting the holy verse during the burial. Her heart was sliced to hear the cries of Kila and Kica who kept calling her Papa. His heart was broken, but not forsaken. For Rania, Ray was long gone from the recesses of her heart. For a long time he had encouraged the man to be with Renata, he was far from grateful that God had saved them.

But his stubbornness is now disturbed, his self-defense collapsed when he saw his children crying when the father's body was buried in the ground. There will be no more warm hugs, tight grips, or silly behavior that leaves them wide open. Rayendra is just a memory, maybe in a few years they have forgotten his face, his voice and all his stories. Especially for Kiana, the baby that Ray had left when he had just been born.

Dion stared at the pusara with a sad look. Tears kept dripping behind his sunglasses, his heart was struck as soon as he knew his co-worker had gone home. Although their relationship is not good, but he feels very lost. In the bottom of his heart, Rayendra will always be a friend who accompanies the process of falling and waking up the journey of his career.

In another corner, a middle-aged man stood while being patrolled by his personal driver. Hardian was still in disbelief when Rayendra came home when he arrived at the hospital yesterday. Hardian is the one who takes care of all the administrative costs of the Hospital to the funeral process. In his heart there is regret, when he has decided to cooperate with Rayendra. Although Ray has failed to build a business, but the man he already considers like his own son. The optimistic soul and potential that Rayendra has always amazed him.

“ Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh”

“ I am Raditya, the sister of Rayendra apologizes deeply for the mistake that my brother made. Thank you for your prayers, may the deceased be received at Allah SWT's side and we are all given the fortitude”

“ If during the life of Rayendra has outstanding debts, please contact the family so that the deceased can rest in peace”.

Susana was silent as soon as Raditya apologized to the pilgrims who came. A woman standing next to Dion got out of place, followed by a man walking behind her. The woman was carrying a red map that she had been holding tightly, their steps stopped right in front of Rayendra's mother who was being hugged by Renata.

“ Excuse me, I'm Anita Lestari, and this is my friend Lawyer Edgar Nasution. We the lawyers of Mr. Dionisius & Yanuardi Hermawan want to convey something”, said the woman.

“ I-iya What is it Bu?”, replied the middle-aged woman.

“ Mr. Rayendra has a debt with my client, this is a letter of agreement that Mr. Ray has signed”, said the notary while giving a red map containing the agreement.

“ Astagfirullah, a lot. We are not sure we can pay for all this “, his screams with a vibrating voice, Renata also widened with the contents of the agreement held by her in-laws.

“ Our client has already disbursed the debt, considering that Mr. Ray has replaced it with an application that is equivalent in value. But there is one that our client sued his wife sirinya”, said Edgar.

“ Loh why bring me?”, scream.

“ Ibu Renata Rahardjo has signed an agreement with Mr. Yanuardi Hermawan on land investment in Bogor, but unfortunately the funds are allegedly from embezzlement proceeds”, said Edgar.

“ I don't want to know about his wife sir, I never assume

he is our family. Please Ren you take care of all your problems “, said the woman while pushing Renata's body.

“ Good Morning Ms. Renata, your time is up. We will take you back to do the checks in the office”, said Reserse officer approached them.

Edgar and Anita were busy talking to the officer, while Renata was just standing with a deathly pale face. Not lost his sense of mourning, he was faced with the demands of adultery and embezzlement at once. His body was weak, but no one helped him. Rayendra's family one by one left the cemetery, no more figures he knew to ask for help.

“ Renata, thank you for accompanying my husband for this one year. As long as you know, you can snatch him from our side, not because I gave him. But indeed you guys are fooled to have each other”.

“ Rania, I...”, Renata's voice choked speechless. There is hate, shame, and fear mixed into one.

“ May you live a quiet life now, because I have also lived happily with my three daughters. Happiness is what you will not be able to snatch again”, said Rania with sharp eyes.

“ Rania, let's go home. Mama and the kids are waiting in car ”, follow Nadine while taking Kian from her carrier.

“ Ms. Renata, come with us for a check-up. Mr. Edgar and Bu Anita please make a report in the office”, said the police while driving Renata to his car.

Rania's steps stopped right in front of Rayendra's navel. He sprinkled flowers on the ground of the grave that was still red and wet. His mouth commits to reciting a prayer, while wiping a wooden headstone bearing Rayendra's name.

“ Ray, goodbye. Thank you for your love for children, their prayers will never stop for you”.

“ Ray, we're sincerely releasing you. If one day you are in heaven, please find the palace that the children made for you. Each prayer, their prayer is only one, they want to make a palace in heaven for all of us. Goodbye Pap, good-bye friend, we will keep dokankanmu”.

Finally a faint smile rose from her lips, Rania stood up while sprinkling the last flower on top of the navel. He followed Dion and Nadine with a giant step towards the car. He glanced at the police car parked on the crossbar, Renata was also riding the car without expression. The two human beings are indeed different, but now they have one thing in common. Both had carved Rayendra's name in his heart.
