"Laura, where are you going?" asked Anjani, when she saw Laura was cleaning her clothes.
"I want to see Yumna, ma'am. I miss him, he hasn't called me in 2 months" Laura said.
"Mom better come along" suggested Laura.
"Alright, mom's coming with you. I miss Yumna too,"
After preparing her clothes, Laura then went to Anjani's room and cleaned up her belongings as well. Half an hour later Laura and Anjani are ready, they will use the train to East Java. Yumna once gave her home address, at the last moment they were content.
"Yumna, wait for mom," said Laura.

Meanwhile Yumna and Bara, have started working mainly Bara. He got a job at a hotel near the beach. While Yumna, she works at a restaurant. Not far from where they stayed, every day Bara always picked Yumna home, they walked to their house.
Bara's love statement last time, has not been answered by Yumna. Yumna is always confused and not ready to give answers, and she knows Yusra and Hito's wedding is very lively.
"Is this sorted?" ask the stale base.
Yumna nodded, today they happened to be able to go home together. And Bara will ask about the answer to his love.
"Yumna, how did you answer?"
"I... I don't know, I don't know Bara" replied Yumna lowered her head.
"What is the time, which I give less?"
"No, but I'm not sure of my heart yet."
"You haven't forgotten it?"
Yumna shook her head slowly, making Bara breathe out slowly.
"Have forgotten it, suppose I never reveal my heart" Bara said.
"Sometimes confused with yourself, always attach importance to the feelings of others. Rather than feeling alone" Bara chanted, and Yumna was indirectly insinuated.
Then Bara stepped first, leaving Yumna behind. Yumna stared at Bara's back away.
"Not that I don't want to, I'm afraid of getting hurt." Lirih Yumna, following Bara.

A few hours later, Laura and Anjani arrived. Then they hired an online taxi service to get to Yumna place, they were not long until, and had to walk.
Anjani could see a girl chasing a young boy, she smiled and called out to Yumna.
"Yumna," cried Yumna, as she chased Bara closer.
Bara and Yumna, turning to the source of the voice. Yumna rounded her eyes, and ran towards Laura.
"Mother," yumna cried.
After near Yumna hugged Laura tightly.
"I'm sorry mom, baby," said Laura.
"No mom, I'm the one who should apologize,"
"How are you?" ask Anjani.
"Okay oma" Bara said.
Bara then kissed Laura on the back of her hand, and helped carry her beloved Yumna's suitcase.
"Where are you from?" ask Laura.
"I'm coming home from work, ma'am, at a cafe near here. Bara also just came home," explained Yumna and Laura were nodding their heads.
"Come in, ma'am" asked Laura, after arriving at her house.
Anjani and Laura, sitting in the living room while Bara saves Anjani and Laura's belongings to the guest room. Bara's usual room was occupied, but today he's going to sleep on the living room sofa. There's no way he's sleeping with Yumna.
"Auntie, oma. The stuff I've stored in the room yes, if you need something aunty same oma can tell me," explained Bara.
"Thank you Bara" said Laura.
"Together,"
Bara also left the other women of the generation, while Yumna was making drinks for her mother and oma.
Before long, Yumna came with two cups of tea. And two food jars.
"In the drink mom, oma."
"Thank you dear,"
"It looks comfortable here, mom likes it" Laura said.
Anjani patted Laura's thigh slowly.
"Say you want to stay with Yumna" Anjani's scolding made Laura and Yumna chuckle
"Mom knows,"
"Mom can ko, stay here with me. I miss my mother" Yumna hugged Laura tightly, even though she knew that. Unfortunately Laura is now divided for Yusra.
"If oma? What's an oma, can I stay here too?"
"May ko, oma too." Yumna changed positions, she sat in the middle between Laura and Anjani.
"I also miss oma, who is this pomper. If you're healthy, yah!!" kekeh Yumna, and got a pinch from Anjani.
"www... Ihh oma, KDRT anyway," Yumna protested while pursing her lips.
It was great that he pranked the granddaughter, the baby-like granddaughter who was always with him while Laura was working.
Yumna hugged Anjani tightly.
"Religion," seduced by Yumna.
"Laura look at your son," Anjani fought.
"Dam!! I'm kidding, I'm just kidding oma. I love oma,"
Yumna kissed Anjani's cheek, and hugged her again. Yumna released her embrace from Anjani.
"Ou yeah, how long's mom been here with oma?"
"Mom don't know, I want to be here just like you." Laura Reveal.
"Mother come along, what house in Jakarta we just sell and move here!!" anjani.
"Boleh oma, we can open a business here ma'am," explained Yumna.
"Let's think again,"
"This part of the house, too, is already on my behalf ma'am. Om Mario bought it when he came to pick me up" Yumna said.
"Well!! Mario here? Does he know you're here?"
Yumna nodded in response, thinking her mother knew.
"Oh, forget about Laura. In any case, Mario is Yumna's real father" Anjani said.
"All right,"
As they huddled, Bara came with two boxes of fast-food lunches.
"Tante equals oma, eat first."
"Do not bother with Bara, later Yumna can cook," said Anjani.
"No oma, we haven't bought any ingredients. Because we both eat out often" Yumna said.
"We'll eat first, Mom. No good, Bara bought it." Laura said.
Yumna immediately brought a spoon and mineral drinking water in a bottle, assisted by Bara. For some reason Yumna felt Bara getting cold to her, they ate quietly. Laura occasionally glanced at Yumna who was stealing glances at Bara, who was calm and did not see Yumna.
"There must be nothing" said Laura.
After finishing eating, Laura and Anjani decided to take a break. Before Magrib arrives, Laura decides to meet Yumna in her room.
"Yumna can mom come in?" laura said after knocking on the door.
Yumna opened the door for Laura.
"What's wrong mom? You need anything?"
"No, I just wanted to talk to you,"
Yumna invites Laura in, and takes her to the balcony. Although the house does not have a second floor, the room in Yumna has a balcony.
"Yumna are you and Bara in trouble?" ask Laura to the point.
"Nothing, why?"
Laura rubbed Yumna's face affectionately, she was the only child Laura had. Laura hopes that someday, Yusra will love her.
"When your life is happy, I never ask you to share that happiness with me, but when you're hurt your mother always comes to receive a share of your wounds. So share it with mom, baby.don't be alone, then you go away mother," said Laura, whose eyes had warmed to hold back tears.
"My mother...."
"Yumna please, I've lost one child. And I don't want to lose you Yumna" said Laura.
Yumna carried the mother in her arms.
"I'm sorry mom,"
"No son, the wrong mother. You don't have to apologize" Laura said. "So tell mom, you and Bara are fighting?" ask again.
"Bara expressed love to me ma'am, but I was scared and not ready to open my heart again. I'm afraid of getting hurt, ma'am" said Yumna.
Unbeknownst to Yumna and Laura, Bara overhears Yumna talking. She intended only to check on Yumna from the side of the house, but she saw Yumna and Laura hugging. And Bara, too, decided to eavesdrop on their conversation. Sounds disrespectful, but what can I do.
"You haven't tried yet baby, I'm sure Bara is best for you. He's looking after you and he's willing to help you" explained Laura.
"Yumna sometimes we find it difficult to forget the good old days, but we also have to move forward and not fall down because of the circumstances. Yumna forget the past, and move on with the new. And never look back again" advises Laura.
"My mother..."
"Yumna, forget Keano dear. Don't be a destroyer in his household,"
"All right, ma'am, I'll try." Breaking Yumna exhaled her breath.
Laura smiled, Laura wished Yumna was always happy. I don't know why her heart was restless and agitated, and for whom Laura didn't know. While Bara who was eavesdropping smiled happily, she thought she would give up fighting for Yumna.
"Thank you, Aunt Laura. has opened the way Yumna thought, and forgotten her past," Bara murmured.
