After Rina cleaned up. The beautiful girl immediately looked for the book given by Eza, six years ago. He set aside the pile of books. His eyes widened when he saw the book in front of him.
The girl swallowed hard, her eyes welled with tears and her smile grew perfectly with a thumping heart.
"Hatching! Est... well, est. Cold." He quickly grabbed a tissue and grabbed the book.
Rina threw her body on the bed. He opened a dull sheet.
"How do I always admire him like this." Everything in the book is just a picture of him watching Eza from a distance.
"He never gave me hope at all. The thing that impressed me the most was when he gave me this book. That's the only sweet memory. So far, it's just me and my unrequited love." Rina lay on her stomach and then flipped over her high school memories.
He saw his picture. The paper depicts a girl crying and hiding. Meanwhile, from the other direction, a young man was giving flowers to another girl.
Rina threw the book and closed her eyes. "Don't come back hopeful. If possible, just burn this book," he advised his heart.
"My eyes and heart are always waiting. Huah! Oh my God...." Rina covered her face with her pillow.
"It doesn't work. It's hot and cold. It's like falling in love with hot cheeks but cold hands. Est ... huh...." Rina pulled the blanket and tried to sleep.
Knock!
Knock!
"Assalamualaikum ...." A woman's voice was in front of Rina's house. "Assalamualaikum ...."
Rina immediately woke up in shock, her eyes still red. "Dag, dig, dug. It feels like this heartbeat. Huft, who is it ... I hope Bude Sri, brings warm food. Oh, that's delicious. Hahaha, I wish," he muttered.
"Waalaikumsalam ...." Rina answered from inside the house then grabbed the doorknob.
Check!
Rina gulped after seeing the figure of a middle-aged woman standing in front of her. A woman who is no longer young but looks very dignified and elegant.
"Rina. You are very pale, son," said the woman. Rina was still confused.
"He's exhausted, ma'am," said Eza from the right. Rina tilted her head after hearing a familiar voice.
He was even more astonished when he saw his future in-laws and future brother-in-law at his house.
Clap!
Clap!
"Come in, Mrs. Susi," said Rina, reflexively, taking the mother-in-law of the future mother-in-law into her house. Eza was forced to enter.
"Your hands are so hot, son," said the future mother-in-law and then touched Rina's forehead. "See... right, I have a fever. Eza, I just want to sleep here. I want to accompany Rina. You also sleep here."
Eza looked very surprised when her mother asked that. Rina looks very tense when she is next to her future in-laws.
"You should rest. Maybe you were tired from saving a drowning child," said Mrs. Susi.
"Mother is her fault. She was playing in the rain. She's too old to play in the rain," said Eza curtly and sat down.
"I'm young and sweet!" Rina said quickly did not accept. "It's old when I'm gray," he added, still not accepting it.
"Yes ... you are sweet and beautiful," said Mrs. Susi then sat down. "I cooked this soup earlier. It's still hot, so eat it quickly. This is quite a lot, you also eat Za!" the mother ordered.
"Mom, why are you so angry with me? My mother's child or her. Don't I often go, but why do you pay more attention to her," said Eza showing her dislike for Rina.
"After all, she will be my mother's daughter-in-law. You will also go to Jakarta after marriage. So what's wrong with loving her. Look, her house is clean. It's not like Intan's house."
"Mom, don't start!" said Eza then played the cellphone and lay down. Rina saw Mrs. Susi take a deep breath.
"I'll take the plate first, Mom," said Rina then walked into the kitchen with her fists clenched because she was nervous.
'How did something like this happen... sob, sob. I feel more and more feverish. See. Chills. It's... sweet, you can watch it but... it feels like I want to go to the ER,' complained Rina in her heart and grabbed the plate.
"Why are the plates two and three." Rina shook her head so that her eyes wouldn't fly.
He had already grabbed his plate and was about to return to the living room.
"Mother respects my feelings and my choices. Why do you still expect me to have a match with Rina? Of course, I have been in love with Intan all this time. Even though my grandfather's request was for Rina's match. But now there is Dirga who replaces me," said Eza slowly but Rina heard.
Rina was standing behind a wall, she was still mentally preparing after hearing Eza's words.
"Mother what else should you do. What your grandfather asked for,
You are matched and married to Rina. Fine... Mom relented. Let's not make a fuss at Rina's house," said her mother.
'You have to be self-aware Rina. You will never reach for the stars. Because the star is very far away. He also could not care about the mandate that had been ordered by his late grandfather. Because he refused, I had to marry Dirga. Mrs. Susi is too kind, it's also impossible for me to avoid this matchmaking. Just go with Bismillah,' he said in his heart and came out with a sweet smile.
What he saw became a firefly. Rina almost fell.
"Son, you're so dizzy huh?" asked Mrs. Susi who held her shoulder. Rina sat with her eyes wide open.
"Mom. Let's just go home ah," said Eza whining like a child.
"You are. Rina is sick. More than you checked, you gave a prescription. After all, she is alone at home. I feel sorry for Eza... listen to Eza. When you go to Jakarta later, you will be the one who will take care of your mother, your daughter-in-law. this," said Mrs. Susi while holding Rina's arm.
Rina couldn't hold her head anymore. He tried to open his sticky eyes.
"Yes, yes, yes. Tell him to rest so I can check," said Eza with great compulsion.
"Honestly, please," said Rina quietly. Mrs. Susie smiled.
"What did you say?! So don't be careless. Pretend to be a late hero. Then it rains like a little kid. Right, so I'm the hard one," said Eza in a curt tone.
"Eza! If he becomes a hero over time, it's better. Why didn't you help yourself? Isn't it taking too long to find the coast guard? The child's life might have been lost. Luckily, Rina was quick and alert." Mrs. Susi stroked Rina's arm.
"Defend it...!" said Eza did not accept. Meanwhile, Rina still feels the love given to her by her future mother-in-law. Rina's eyes filled with tears and her lips trembled.
The future father-in-law poured the food brought by him.
Klik!
Klik!
The sound of stirring food. Rina continued to look closely at Mrs. Susi.
"Your grandmother used to take care of Mother. When Eza's grandmother was seriously ill. So your mother and mother were friends. But due to separation. Due to the disaster in Palu, we lost contact. We didn't contact each other, for years. We ate first," explained Mrs. Susi who saw Rina's eyes filled with tears.
"Why are you crying?" asked Mrs. Susi immediately wiping Rina's wet cheeks.
"Acting!" Eza said quietly. Mrs. Susi who heard threw the spoon. Eza caught him.
"You bastard! Let's eat son." Mrs. Susi feeds Rina. Rina felt awkward, her eyes saw Eza who was busy with her cellphone.
'He's so annoying. But why am I getting more and more feelings? What is it that got me hooked? But he's so annoying!' Rina thought by chewing slowly.
"Huh." Rina covered her mouth. "Yes, ma'am, I want to get sick. I catch a cold," said Rina, who took a tissue.
"Yes, let's rest, Mother will deliver. Eza is checked."
"Yes madam." Eza stays focused on the phone screen. Rina was led to the room by Mrs. Susi.
