Adel was just about to open the white envelope that wrapped the letter, when a soft voice startled him.
"Mr? Come on, wait with the others" Nisa said with a smile on the doorstep.
Adel reduces her intention to open the letter, after scanning the entire room once again Adel steps away leaving her to her husband's car.
"Old, um?" ask Zidan who is ready behind the wheel.
Adel just smiled. "Ah, no. Just look around mama's late room and be a kangen."
Zidan nodded and did not ask much more, slowly their car moved away from the courtyard of the historic house. All the sweet and bitter memories Zidan had tasted in that house, and now they were all coming to an end.

Arriving at home, Nisa went straight to her room to rest and breastfeed Zafran. Bu Sekar and Alan also went straight into their rooms.
"Um, Abi to the factory for a second huh. Since Mama died Abi has not been there again, manor employees there are difficulties. Not long," said Zidan while peeping Adel's forehead.
Adel nodded slowly. "Yes, Bi. Be careful on the road. Don't speed, don't look, but now there's Zafran who will always wait for his father to come home."
"God, Umi's fine at home huh. No need to take any rest in the room. Umi must be tired really a week yesterday back and forth mama's seven-day study. It's time for Umi to take a break." Zidan rubbed Adel's head and gave her hand to Adel's salami.
"Assalamu'alaikum, my heavenly angel."
"Wa'alaikumsalam, my heavenly priest." Adel replied with a very sweet smile.
Klapp
The door closed again after Zidan came out, and Adel hurried to sit on the bed and took out a letter from his late mother-in-law's house from his handbag.
A thousand questions ranted in Adel's mind, about why the in-laws could go home in terrible conditions and did not know the cause at all. Zidan did not allow the autopsy because he no longer wanted his mother's body in the brain.
"Bismillah, may there be a clue in here about Mama's death." Adel hissed while tearing the white envelope paper.

Adel's heart pounded hard, for the sake of seeing the graffiti with the neat-looking letters. It seems that Bu Sita did plan to write a letter to Adel beforehand.
About this is how it is.
"To my daughter-in-law, Adelia.
Forgive Mama if during your time as your father-in-law Mama always hated you, all that is not just because you do not have children. It's just, honestly Mama said it all because you are so similar to Sri, the affair of her father Zidan.
Even though deep down, Mama really loves you. Mama is glad that there is someone who can make Zidan change, become better and closer to his God. Not like Mama who, ah .. you know yourself, right? Mom was embarrassed to mention it.
Adel, maybe after you read this letter Mama is no more. Do not worry Mama, let Mama take responsibility for all the results of Mama's own actions.
Ah yes, and one more. Tell Zafran, Mama's grandson. If you love her so much, you will always love her even if you can no longer be with her. If you ask why Mama was bad to Zafran first, it's because Mama does not want to take it because she knows Mama's flesh blood is most dear and expect her presence.
That thing is dangerous, son. Even if you succeed in destroying him, he will rise again to continue his terror. As much as possible, bring all your families closer to the almighty. So that the damned creature can no longer approach our family.
Again, forgive Mama who has brought this disaster into our family. Hopefully, none of our descendants will be caught up in the deceit of the lowly creatures.
Adel my daughter-in-law, tell Nisa that Mama is sorry for enslaving her mother and sister. Mama dark eyes because they look like they want to master Zidan's treasure, even though it's just Mama's guess. Please say yes, son. Hopefully they can forgive Mama so that Mama's torment can at least be a little reduced.
Lastly, there are actually a lot of things you want to tell me, son. But your time is limited, sorry for not being able to tell you why. Mama just wants to say, tipped Zidan remains the Adel that Mama has known. Please pray this Mama so that at least not so heavy Mama's road there. Tell everyone you're sorry for them, Mama's sorry. And Mama will love you until anytime even though our world is different.
Please always pray for Mama, my dear greetings.
Mama Sita."
Adel rubbed the tears that had fallen on his cheeks, his lips quivering with sadness that suddenly burst open in silence.
"Oh my God, Mama!" Isak Adel covered his face with the letter paper he had just read.
Her heart sank bitterly as she knew the real reason her in-laws had long since disliked her. But all can be accepted with reason, and Adel feels everything is not purely a mistake Bu Sita.
Adzan ashar has been reverberating, according to the last request of Bu Sita Adel immediately took ablution and intend to invite his entire family to pray together.
"Nisa's again a guest, ma'am." Nisa bends her face with a regretful look, baby Zafran in her cradle looks yawning like she just woke up.
"Yes already, if that Nisa also sat near Mbak aja yes. We pray together for Mama."
Adel went to Bu Sekar's room, incidentally Bu Sekar was also preparing to pray. So all of you Adel invited him to pray together at the family mosque.
And now, Adel with Bu Sekar praying together. Nisa sat not far from them while holding Zafran. Alan apparently took Zidan to the factory so he wasn't home.
After praying together with Bu Sekar, Adel led a joint prayer for the late Bu Sita. Their hope is that Bu Sita can be in the field of his grave, ease his way to heaven and be forgiven all his sins and placed in the best place in the side of Allah SWT.
"Alhamdulil was bornabbilalamin," murmured Adel ending his prayer.
They shook hands and kissed each other's cheeks. The harmony is very much felt now after everything that happened in their previous family.
Although faint, but Adel seemed to be able to see the figure of Bu Sita who was standing staring at them from the corner of the mosque house. He had a gentle smile, the sweetest smile ever seen by Adel on his face.
"May you calm down there, Ma. Adel promises to always invite others to always pray for Mama."
