Papa Adi was angry at Reihan, because he was considered negligent in carrying out his duties. But Sasha tried to give a defense, because it was not Reihan's fault.
"Om, we asked Reihan's brother not to come. Because we want to buy personal things. And we are also the wayward, because it does not immediately return like a message from Reihan. We went to that store. Which turned out to be Kevin's, and he was there." Sasha told me everything without any lies.
Papa Adi massages his temple after hearing Sasha's confession.
"That's it. It's all been happening. Sasha you can go home, let uncle Lukman take you. And Reihan, you keep coming with me!" he said in a very firm tone.
After Sasha said goodbye, Reihan was invited to Melin's room. But he didn't come in. He was just waiting outside as per papa Adi's instructions. Then Adi called his wife out of Melin's room.
"I don't want this to happen again" said Papa Adi. "You should get married!" disconnections.
"Well?!" Reihan surprised.
"Pa...?!!" his wife was no less surprised.
"Mom knows what the reason Melin forbade Reihan to go with her? Until something like this happens...?!" said papa Adi. "Because he wants to buy personal things."
"Why do you suddenly have to get married?!" her mother is confused.
"If they get married, they will be able to understand each other. Understand each other's personal things. So you can go anywhere without shame." explained papa Adi.
"But should you get married this soon as well...?!" mama Yunita was still unsure.
"They're still students, paa...!! Too early...!" the wife was apparently still adamant against her husband's verdict.
Reihan could only quietly listen to the sparring of the couple before him. He himself was dizzy how his employer could take the solution.
"How about, Rei...?!" ask Papa Adi suddenly.
Reihan could not give an answer at the time. He's really confused.
"Father.., marriage is no joke. It's a sacred bond. Can't just be decided." said mama Yunita who is still trying to mediate.
"You refused?!" papa Adi looked at Reihan, no matter what his wife said.
"Do you just want to play with my daughter's feelings?!" papa Adi's words are getting louder.
"Paa, patience...!" said the wife.
"Sorry before, sir... I am not silent because I refuse. But I'm thinking about Melin." Reihan said.
"I don't mean to play Melin. Because I really love him. But I also can not immediately accept the verdict Pak Adi. Without talking to Melin. Because the one who will be in this marriage is us. I also need the blessing of my uncle and aunt. Please Mr. Adi would like to give us time to talk." he said.
"Reihan's right, pa. What if Melin's not ready...? Then what if Reihan's family doesn't like it either...?" mama Yunita said.
"I'll give you three days." broke up Papa Adi, then he passed down the stairs.
"I'm sorry Melin's dad, Rei. She was just afraid that something would happen to Melin." mama Yunita tried to calm Reihan down.
"It's okay, ma'am. I understand." Reihan kept trying to smile, even though he was actually very agitated.
......................
Uncle Bian was worried about his nephew who had not come out of the room since. Finally the uncle knocked on Reihan's room door, and tried to talk to him.
"Uncle already knows what happened. People in the office were talking about it" Bian's uncle said.
"Did Mr. Adi scold you, and fire you?" ask uncle Bian.
"No uncle." replied Reihan in his flat tone. "It was beyond my expectations" he continued.
"What's going on? Tell uncle...!" said the uncle.
"Sir Adi asked me to marry Melin" Reihan said.
"Well?!" uncle Bian gawking.
"Me...., me..., married...?!" said nervous. "What are you doing with non Melin, Reihaaan...?!" furious uncle.
"I didn't do anything, uncle. Uncle don't su'udzon just yet...!" reply Reihan.
"Actually me and Melin are already dating" Reihan said.
"Dating...?! How dare you...?!!!" exclaim uncle.
The sound made Nurma's aunt surprised, so she ran to Reihan's room.
"What the hell is a fuss...?! Lili is sleeping...!!" reprimand aunt. "Padly part, Reihan's an adult. Let her date." said the aunt later.
"Look who's dating, ma'am...!!!" furious uncle Bian. "Non Melin!"
"What?!" auntie was no less surprised. "Reihan..., what the fuck are you...?!!"
Reihan's getting made. He had not finished telling the story, but all had given a response that upset him.
"Pama..., aunty..., calm down...!! Listen to me!"
Reihan then went back to telling me about all the things that he had been going through almost 6 months with Melin. Unbeknownst to his aunt and uncle.
"And because of the incident earlier that afternoon, Mr. Adi again asked me to marry Melin." Reihan ended the story.
Uncle and aunt fell silent with their own thoughts. Reihan looked at the two in turn.
"I'm sorry aunt, uncle." said Reihan, nodding to the two. "I'm not making your lives happy, I'm adding to your burdens" he said.
Aunt Nurma rubbed her niece's thick black hair. My uncle patted his wide back.
"What makes you so angry?" ask uncle later.
"Can I be a good husband? Can I meet my wife's needs? While I haven't been able to give a decent life to my family." murmured Reihan.
Uncle and aunt threw eyes at each other, then both smiled.
"It certainly can, as long as the intention is there" said Uncle Bian.
"Your uncle is right, Rei. We are grateful to be able to live so much better now. It's also thanks to you working hard with uncle." said aunt.
"Maybe your way of life should be like this. We as human beings can only follow the line of life that God has set for us" he added.
"Give yourself to God. Ask for directions." said Uncle Bian.
"Ep. Yes, uncle." reply Reihan.

The incident that overflowed Melin that day, it also had an impact on Keira. Kevin's sister. Due to the circulation of video pieces when Kevin was escorted by mall security officers, also sealing the store. Almost everyone bullied Keira because of Kevin.
"Here comes Kevin's sister." one student's lips.
"Still dare to come to school apparently..."
"You're a handsome boy turned out to be evil huh. Melin would prefer Reihan's sister. It's pretty, pinter, all right..."
"Eh, the shop is also sealed. I read the news, the shop in every mall can't operate."
"Tell your brother, so be not evil...!!"
"Silence all...!!" shout Keira.
"Waoh...!! Is anyone angry...?!"
"Don't hear it...!!!"
Keira was very upset. He covered his ears while running. She didn't go to her class, but instead to Melin's.
"Sister Meliiin...!!!" yells. "Where are you..?!!"
Keira searched every corner of that classroom.
"Eh, her sister's coming...!" suhut classmate Melin. "Ngapain yelling here?!"
"Know, come out! Our class doesn't accept families of criminals...!!"
"Shut up...!" sentak Keira's. "Where is sister Melin?!"
Behind Keira came Sasha who had just arrived.
"Why look for Melin?" sasha asked casually.
"Where is he?!" the voice was heard again.
"He didn't come in" he replied.
"Nake not come in. While I'm here bullied the same everyone because of him!"
"Eh, watch your mouth! Melin didn't come in because she was traumatized by your sister!" Sasha pointed at Keira.
"I didn't want to involve you, even if it was your brother's problem. But how come your kok yangot even like this...!!!"
"That bill...!!" the other sahut.
"Originally you know, Kei. Because of your sister, Melin is dying from lack of oxygen. Still mending nothing happened. If it's fatal, your brother could be put to death." said Sasha.
"My brother wouldn't have been like that if only Melin would have accepted it. He defended leaving Bali and opened his own business here, for the sake of Melin. But what's the payoff, Melin prefers her lackeys!" deny Keira won't lose.
"It's a matter of the heart, Kei. Feelings. Cannot be forced! Your sister should understand that." said Sasha.
"Why should a brother understand? While sister Melin just doesn't care about my brother's feelings?!" refute Keira.
"Have it.., still your brother was wrong. Don't stick around, tired...!" the other sahut.
"Observe all of you!!!" Keira pointed at all the students in the room, then left.
"Huuuuhhh...!!!" everyone shouts Keira.
"Already..., already...!!" reproof Sasha. "Morning is just hot." muttered Sasha.
"Melin's fine, isn't he, Sha?"
"He still needs rest. We pray that we get well soon and go to school again, yes...!" answer Sasha.
"Yes, Sha. It's so bad Melin..."
"Yes. Thank goodness we didn't get anything."
Sasha just smiled wryly hearing her friends.
"Lucky brother Reihan came in time.." Inner Sasha.
