Three days had passed, the disappearance was remembered, and Rosalina still remembered the disappearance of Alif in her life. The sound of laughter in her house before disappearing. All that was just an unforgettable memory. Tell her that she had no appetite after the death of the deceased. She was busy thinking for a long time.
Fortunately, Aiysah lives in the same house as her. She had the opportunity to take care of Rosalina for those three days.
Aiysah approached Rosalina, who had been thinking for a long time while sitting in the middle of her grassy yard. The area was filled with fresh flowers from her sweat. After the deceased died, the flowers she planted withered like her despairing heart made a smile again. With a sigh, Aiysah mourned her...
"Ros..are you okay?"
She said she also put his back on the grass with Rosalina. There was no response.
"Ros, you can't be like this... You've been like this for three days, don't you know? I'm really worried about you.."
Aiysah's expression to her. Still the same as Rosalina, no response. She is still pensive.
"Ros, do you think? Is Alif calm when he sees you like this? He must want his mother to be strong. For sure he will be sad when he sees his mother like this. You have to be strong, Ros.."
Aiysah reassured her. After she mentioned Alif's name, Rosalina gave a reaction. Rosalina's eyes began to water.
"I think. I want to give up now..I...I can't live without my Alif, Aiysah. You understand right.."
She looked at Aiysah's worried face.
"Yes. I understand that very well. But as a mother, you have to be strong. Only God knows about life and death. You have to accept that fact for Alif's sake too. Trust me, when he sees his mother being strong, living life without him, he is sure.. calm down there."
Aiysah tried to heal the wound in her heart. Those reassuring words had succeeded in capturing Rosalina's heart. Her facial expression became calm. Rosalina thought Aiysah's words were true. She immediately wiped away her tears.
"Thank you, Aiysah. You have helped me a lot.."
"Hey, you... I'm your friend. This brave and beautiful Aiysah will not leave her friend in trouble. Don't cry, you know.."
Rosalina smiled. Aiysah finally managed to heal the wound. They both smiled happily even though Rosalina's smile was a bit bland. That was enough to change her mood to cheerful again.
"So, what do you say we eat out? You have to eat a lot, you know... Do it for Alif's sake.."
Aiysah invited. Rosalina just agreed. Even though her heart was hurt, she tried to smile again for the sake of the deceased. She will try to live her life now.

Hazre also did not work for those three days. Suhaimi was unable to say anything more. He understood that Hazre was still reminded of his late mother while sitting on the edge of the bed with a gloomy face. Suhaimi just stood watching Hazre from afar. The feeling could be felt the same as Suhaimi.
During those dark times, Veronica came to visit her. She pretended to be concerned about Hazre. Her legs walked slowly towards Hazre.
"You.. why aren't you eating anymore? My aunt brought the food and cooked it for you.."
Veronica said while gently stroking Hazre's shoulder. She also rested her back next to Hazre on the edge of the bed. Hazre bowed down sadly.
"I'm not hungry."
"Eat it. You'll get sick later. If you get sick, how about me?"
The persuasion made Hazre fooled. Hazre thought he would do it for Veronica.
"I'm sorry. Because I didn't think about you. I don't think this is a good husband for you. I'm sorry.."
Hazre immediately apologized. Veronica gave a fake smile. Even though in her heart she didn't care at all about Hazre's fate. She was just pretending.
"I don't care. I forgive you. Well, you have to eat now. If you don't feel like eating here, let's eat outside. We have to spend time together today."
Veronica said to invite him to eat outside. Hazre, who was still reluctant to accept the fact of his mother's death, had to agree for Veronica's sake. Suhaimi, who was watching from afar, was only focused on Veronica. If he still had the chance, he would tell everything about Veronica's true character. For now, he just kept silent.
"Yes... I will follow you.."
Said Hazre, deceived by Veronica's sweet words. With a smile, Veronica took Hazre away while tying Hazre's hand. Suhaimi just followed in their footsteps. It was not yet time for him to reveal Veronica's masked behaviour.

Rosalina and Aiysah ate in a quiet restaurant with a decor full of plants. They had time to chat with each other while waiting for the order to be served at their table.
"Ros, try to sing a little.."
"What is this song?"
"Oh, you. Your voice is as good as food when you sing."
Aiysah said, cheering up the atmosphere. Rosalina giggled. Aiysah knew Rosalina still couldn't forget the deceased. She tried to make Rosalina smile again.
But unfortunately, it doesn't smell. Hazre and Veronica also eat in the same place. It's just that the dining table they chose is a little far from their dining table.
They had also just finished ordering food. But the presence of both of them was noticed by Aiysah, who is sharp-sighted.
"Ros..That girl..that girl is here too."
Said Aiysah, trying to wake up Rosalina. Quickly, Rosalina looked at her in the direction of Aiysah's eyes. She only saw Veronica while Hazre was sitting on her back. She didn't see that it was Hazre.
"That's right. But who is that man? He eats with that shameless woman."
Aiysah's anger started to erupt. Rosalina just kept quiet.
"Ros.. you know, right.. how that sarcastic woman treats you. She tries to snatch other people's husbands. She's shameless.."
"That's it... Let her.."
"Leave it? Do you want to give in to a woman like that? The day after tomorrow your husband will divorce you too, Ros."
That is still unknown to Aiysah. Although Rosalina and Azmar have already decided to divorce. She bowed silently.
"I won't let it. Let's hurry. We have to go there. Teach that girl not to be shy."
Aiysah said again while pulling Rosalina's hand. They walked quickly towards Veronica and Hazre. Veronica was surprised by what she did.
"Hey, shameless girl! Why did you come here? Do you want to slap that beautiful face of yours?"
Aiysah squealed. Rosalina tried to pull her away from there but Aiysah was stubborn. She was determined to teach Veronica. Aiysah's loud voice made Hazre look at her. Before her eyes shifted towards Rosalina. Rosalina was also a little surprised.
"Who are you? Are you trying to find a problem with me?"
Veronica said, fighting back. She stood up from the chair before looking at Aiysah with a sharp look.
"Wow. I'm talking about you. Your acting is great."
"Wait. What happened?"
Hazre began to speak. Because of Aiysah's mouth, the atmosphere became chaotic.
"Rosalina, what are you doing here?"
After Hazre asked Rosalina, Veronica quickly looked at Hazre. The same with Aiysah. The accidental meeting surprised Veronica and Aiysah.
"You know this girl?"
Veronica asked in surprise. Rosalina just looked at her with a surprised face. Aiysah wondered more and more about the meaning of Hazre and Rosalina's introduction. What will happen after this? Will Hazre finally find out Veronica's masked face towards him? How will they resolve the commotion?
