The Sign of Love

The Sign of Love
I'm In


Relina's parents did not expect that their son had plans so far in his marriage, which was fairly sudden. She even had a honeymoon with her best friend, Anne.


Renita scrunched her forehead then, saying, “Where do you want your honeymoon to be with Anne?” There was a hint of frustration in his speech.


“Ya, to where, cake. Overseas, cake. I've never been to a place far away, Buk.” Relina answered while grappling with affection at the base of Junda's arm, which was sitting next to her, in the living room of their home.


Royan who had just been in the room, after the reception was over, suddenly came closer and said in a loud voice.


“I'm coming!”


“You, this!” Rosihan chimed in Royanu's request while hitting the teenage boy's shoulder, and succeeded in making Royan grimace.


Junda lowered his gaze and looked at Relina while smiling gleefully. His voice softly broke the silence that came like a rainy season breeze that brought coolness.


He said, “You want to choose a place abroad that you like.”


Relina smiled as well as tightened her embrace, “True yes, I can choose to go anywhere?” the words and sounds that slid from Relina's mouth felt strange and different, sweet but pushy.


Renita as her mother saw the unusual behavior of her daughter because all this time Relina had never asked for something that was burdensome and difficult for others.


But Renita—ibu Relina was dismissing the strange feeling that knocked her heart. For it is only natural that a wife and a newlywed indulge with her husband. Finally the woman could only smile wryly and let go of her daughter's desire to go follow her husband who will return home in Bogor today.


After saying goodbye to his two in-laws, Junda did not forget to give a piece of the check he had given to his father and mother, sincerely.


“What is this, son? No need to give us one this big.” Rosihan said trying to subtly refuse. But Relina soon pushes the hand of her father, who will return the check to Junda.


“That's nothing, Dad. Just a small gift, make additional fare if later Dad, Mom and Royan want to come at our wedding reception.” Junda answered with a smile and pulled Relina's suitcase out of the house.


“Alright, thank you. Be careful on the road,” Renita and Rosihan said simultaneously.


*****


Arriving in Bogor, it was late at night. Relina immediately entered the Junda family residence which was not storied but very large. He rested himself, by laying his body on the bed, it was a man's room, until all the equipment and decorations in it were impressed manly.


After Junda showed them their room, the man seemed so restrained himself and went to the kitchen to prepare something.


Now Relina was at the house where she became the mistress. Once he came to this place when Shasi—neknek Junda died and he came to mourn for his grief and pay his respects one last time.


When he entered earlier, a servant greeted him kindly, just as he had entered Gunara's house for the first time. He smiled with immeasurable joy that it would be what his life is today.


During the trip with her family-in-law, Relina always smiled because all of Junda's cousins, her uncles and aunts, treated the woman kindly and kindly. They all appreciated Relina as a woman who was considered a savior for Junda.


Relina just quietly circulated her gaze around the room, while waiting for Junda who had not appeared since she entered her room. The man simply accompanied her in and kept the suitcase, asking her to rest.


“Are you asleep?” tanya Junda who suddenly came, even opened the door of the room almost without a sound.


Relina was surprised, even she had not had the time to clean herself up. “Not yet,” the answer is reluctant. He was surprised because Junda actually looked fresh, fragrant, and had changed clothes.


“Come! We have dinner first,” said Junda again while holding Relina's hand and taking her out of the room to the dining room.


“Are you happy?” junda asked as she poured some food on Relina's plate as well as her plate.


Relina nodded, she felt disbelief at the romance Junda showed her. Take food and serve her like a queen in the king's palace.


“Ya, of course,” the answer is nervous.


They enjoyed being silent, throwing only gazes and smiles.


On the sidelines of the dinner, Junda's mobile phone suddenly rang. His voice messed up the atmosphere, making Junda stop the activity and immediately raised his phone.


“Halo,” greet Junda as soon as the flat object stuck in his ear. Then a moment of silence, Junda seemed to listen to the person speaking across the phone with furrowed eyebrows.


“What?” he said then in a loud voice in surprise. After that he immediately closed his phone and drank the water in his glass.


“What happened?” asked Relina with a huff. “Hey, what's up?”


“You wait here, something happened with Shalu, he tried to commit suicide. His father called me and wanted me to go there because now he is on top of the building and yelling like crazy!” Junda said with a loud breath. Guilt haunted him.


He could not imagine what would happen to the girl if she did not come. Shalu called out to him repeatedly while standing on the top side, the tallest building in Bogor! At least that's what Shalu's father told her. After all, the woman was a friend and also had been a good and meritorious co-worker in her company.


“What? Ahk, is that right?” relina gumam. The feeling was not good to hear the news that Junda had just said. His romantic dinner is not over yet, should be interrupted because of the woman.


“I'm coming!” relina said later. He got up from the seat, ran to the room to pick up his little bag and after that immediately approached Junda who was still frozen, silently thinking whether to allow Relina to come along or not.


For the sake of seeing the persistence of Relina who was preparing to follow him, Junda finally gave up and brought the woman along with him.


“This, it's night. You should have been home waiting for me to come home.”


“I don't want to. Time, anyway, the newlyweds in staying alone. Saddened very. Mending coming, I want to see if Miss, okay.”


They chatted after being in the vehicle and Junda drove the car at high speed.


Relina has read several novels about the bride who left on the first night or the bride who failed to marry or the woman who became a substitute because her bride ran away. Akh, all those stories are sad in a woman's life. She did not want to experience it and it was better to follow the man who had just become her husband, rather than waiting for him alone at home.


Arriving at the place indicated by Shalu's father, who was his Atmaja— friend, Junda immediately descended in a hurry. He doesn't want to be the one to blame for the suicide, or the loss of a girl's life for not being loved. Moreover, she was Shalu, a woman who had once been close to him.


“Who are you?” ask a police guard. The atmosphere in that place was gripping.


The existence of a security officer was because Adipura—ayah Syalu contacted and asked him to come to guard if something happened to his only child. From the position the man was in now, one could look towards the roof of the building freely.


Junda and Relina continued walking, hurriedly in panic, even ignoring the reprimand from the police.


“Hai, you. Stop!”
