A TRUE STORY BY NORMA RISMA

Marriage is supposed to be once-in-a-lifetime.

Unfortunately,

not all mistakes

or betrayals

can be forgiven by the word "Sorry".

Like what happened in my marriage.

The betrayal,

it was my husband who did it.

With someone I should have respected…

PRESIDING JUDGE

…and the one who should love me the most.

A FEW MONTHS EARLIER

Our topic this morning is…

"The Role of Mothers in Islam"

Kindly have your notes ready.

Let's learn together later, shall we?

You're just walking around aimlessly!

They haven't arrived yet, Mom!

Norma has set aside one for you, Mom.

Everyone ready?

As the saying goes…

Heaven lies under the feet

of mothers.

Mother is the first school,

and also primary for her children.

So if a mother succeeds…

…to raise her children to be good humans,

the society will also become a strong society.

Mom, can I go out for a while?

Because a mother's love is always easy.

Where is Anton?

He's sick, Boss!

Nauseous!

Have you told him to seek medical treatment?

Yes, Boss, he has been absent for a few days now.

- Maybe he's been cursed, Sir. - Hey, watch your mouth!

BANTEN GRAND MOSQUE'S ISLAMIC STUDY

Stop!

That's why you should learn to drive!

If Anton is absent like this, you don't have to wait for me.

That woman has arrived, Boss!

My apologies, I was delayed due to an unforeseen issue.

Fine Sir, the main thing is you've arrived safely.

Is everything ready?

All done, but there's still one more left.

- Okay. - This is so heavy.

Miss, I'm sorry for making you wait so long.

It's okay!

These are for mothers and kids of our religious study group.

Calm down!

- Well, you know. - Easy… Easy…!

Kids, take it easy!

Children…

You're welcome!

- When you have one, go study again! - Thank you, Miss!

- What is that? - Me!

- Here you go. - Thank you.

Yeah. Share them, okay? Here.

Is everything done, Miss?

Yes, it's done.

- Thank you, Sir. - My pleasure!

And thank you to the driver as well!

Oh right, let me introduce my boss, Mr. Irfan.

If it weren't for him, I could go back and forth by motorcycle.

It took an hour!

Irfan!

Hey, I think we've met before, right?

You seem familiar.

He's hitting on you!

Ah, I'm being serious! Where did we meet?

What did you say your name was?

Sorry, I haven't said my name yet.

I'm Norma, Sir.

Norma from SMANDA?

Are you from SMANDA too?

I'm Irfan Wardana, Social Three!

- You're head of pencak silat, right? - I'm the vice-chairman.

Oh!

This shows…

…how important a mother's role is in Islam.

Miss, we're sorry, we have to take our leave now.

Can I have your phone?

No way, the boss is asking for a phone?

Just buy one!

Your phone number, I mean. May I have it?

No, thank you, Sir. I have to go now.

Peace be upon you.

- Peace be upon you. - Miss, sorry, you forgot this.

Oh, the staff here will take care of it later.

- His name is Mr. Unim. - Okay.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Hey, let's get to work!

- Sir, the pedicab, please. - Yes, Ma'am.

Mom, do you know Rika, my old college friend?

She now works at SD Tunas Bangsa.

She asked me to work there, Mom…

…to replace a religious teacher there.

Their teacher just resigned after marital leave.

What do you think if I move there?

The salary is quite good.

You barely help me at the stall while working at the TPA,

why do you think you can be a teacher?

Well, I'm pretty sure, Mom. I will arrange the time later.

It would be a pity to miss it.

May I?

Who's here, Mom?

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Peace be upon you

Dad!

Dad!

- My dear! - Why didn't you tell me before?

Surprise!

If I had known, I would've bought you Bang Cukit's Apem!

Let's see ya!

Koh Akin gave you a day off?

Koh Akin's sibling is having a wedding.

He is busy with the wedding, so the shop is closed now!

Alright, I'll take the food to the kitchen.

It's okay, I'll take care of it!

I'll be in the back room!

How's your mother?

Well, the same…

- The same? - Yes.

She still sells chicken noodles when there are orders.

She tends to keep to herself while free.

As if you don't know her at all.

Well, I was just asking how she is.

Mom!

Mom, come to the town square with me and Dad!

Come and buy Bang Cukit's Apem.

You go!

Come on, Mom! We rarely go out together.

Only this once, please!

You should go!

- My dear! - Yes, Dad?

It's okay, let's just go together!

Alright then, I'm going now.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Let's go!

BANG CUKIT'S APEM

Here you go.

- Thank you very much. - Sure.

In the name of Allah.

Dad…

Dad, why don't you want to move your job here?

Keep me company, I'm getting lonely.

Well, Dad's livelihood is in Jakarta.

What job would I do if I worked here?

The salary here isn't much either.

It's because you want to be far from Mom, right?

Once you have a partner, you'll forget me.

You will not be lonely anymore!

No, Dad!

Even if I have a partner, I'll still be 'clingy' to Dad!

- C-Clingy? - Clingy.

What is 'clingy'?

Clingy' means very close!

Anyway, I'm not even thinking about getting a partner yet, Dad…

- …or even married. - Be patient, my dear.

Find a man who is consistent in his prayers…

…religiously sound, easy to talk with.

Who can make you laugh,

and be 'clingy' with you.

Peace be upon you, Norma.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

- Peace be upon you, Sir. - Peace be upon you.

I'm Irfan, Norma and I were in the same high school.

Ah, okay

- Aren't you working today? - I already finished my morning shift.

My mom told me to buy snacks.

Does Father and Norma like to buy snacks here?

This is Norma's favourite Apem Cukit.

- Is it good, Sir? - Indeed!

Okay, I'll get this packed for my mom, hopefully she'll enjoy it.

I'm going to buy noodles first, sorry for bothering you.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

CHICKEN NOODLES - MR. SUNTO'S MEATBALLS

We were just talking about a 'partner', and there he is.

What?

He's quite polite too.

And handsome too!

- Dad, stop it! - You could be 'clingy' with him.

After finishing reciting the Quran, what should we say?

Thank you God!

Be careful on your way home.

Put on your shoes.

RIYADHUL HIKMAH QURAN EDUCATION CENTER

- Don't… - Ouch!

…fight over the shoes.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you too.

We've met a few times, right?

Maybe this is a sign that I can ask for your phone number?

If we keep meeting so often, we don't need phone numbers, right?

Oh, I guess not then.

Well, I'll come here tomorrow!

Maybe next time you'll allow me to take your phone number.

Peace be upon you.

Peace be upon you.

Norma, can I give you a ride home?

- No. - How about tomorrow?

The day after tomorrow? The day after the day after tomorrow?

Or after the day after tomorrow? Maybe even later?

- No! - Ooh, ooh, ooh!

- Gotcha! - Auntie, stop it!

I'm your dad's sister, of course we're the same.

Excuse me.

Let me ask Mr. Unim first, so he can take you home.

No need, Ummi, I'll just go ahead and walk.

Be careful, it's late. Is it safe for you to go home alone?

- No worries… - No worries, Ma'am!

- Hey, Irfan! - May I take Norma home, Ma'am?

Oh, we're not mahram, Ummi!

Let's do it this way, we're in an emergency.

Irfan, I'm entrusting Norma to you for her safety.

But I ask you one thing…

- …don't mess around! - Well noted, Ummi!

This is truly your responsibility, you can't mess around.

Yes, Ummi!

I'm so lucky to have received this trust from Ummi…

To take you home.

Yeah, just don't disappoint her trust.

Do you mind walking, okay?

Isn't this the bike you had back in high school?

I remember you used to like to speed around with it.

Gosh, you only remember the bad things about me.

Back then, many girls had a crush on you.

Did you?

No!

Please walk slowly!

We've arrived, Irfan.

- Thank you, Irfan. - My pleasure.

Wait, Norma.

This is for you.

Thanks.

Can I say hello to your father?

My dad is currently working in Jakarta.

Your Mom?

She's already asleep at this hour.

Go inside, Norma!

Irfan!

Peace be upon you, Madam!

- I'm Irfan. - Norma!

I'm sorry.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

A girl being walked home by a guy at this hour,

what will the neighbors think?

Why won't you let me have guy friends?

You dare to talk back after a guy just approached you?

I did not oppose you, Mom.

I was just asking.

Why do you never like any of my male friends?

Is there truly no one good in your eyes?

I'm the one who carried and birthed you.

Raised you.

I know what's best!

Why didn't you reply to my text?

I came to the mosque, but you were already gone.

What's wrong?

It's okay, I just want to go home by myself.

Did your mother scold you?

Seriously? Lying is a sin, people who lie go to hell.

She doesn't like it. That's it!

You don't need to see me again.

I don't want my mom to scold you.

Wait, wait, Norma!

Perhaps she dislikes me because she hasn't met me yet.

Who knows, when she does, she might like me.

I'm such a good future son-in-law, you know.

- You're talking nonsense! - Hey, I'm serious!

I'm really sad that you said that.

I thought you would give me a chance.

We haven't gotten to know each other that well.

How can we get closer if you don't respond to my texts?

Norma…

Let's make our relationship serious.

Okay?

Really?

Thank God for answering my prayers!

-Shush -Why?

Are you serious, you can face my mom?

Is this the feeling of being cared for by my future wife?

Hey, I'm serious!

We must be ready. In the name of God!

We'll go through this together.

May I help you, Madam?

It's okay!

Mom…

Mom, I have something to give you…

This is from Irfan.

Please accept!

- Auntie! - Yes?

- Please sit. - Gosh.

Oh, no.

Mom…

Yes, Irfan?

Firza, do you know where your sister's birth certificate is?

No!

- Mom! - You're always gaming!

- Peace be upon you, Madam. - Peace be upon you.

Are you waiting for…

Irfan, Madam.

You're a friend of Irfan?

- Future wife! - What?

Future wife? Seriously?

Well, praise to God…

…somebody is interested in you.

No, I'm kidding, dear!

Sorry, what's your name?

Peace be upon you, Mira. What's up?

Please wait a moment, Irfan has a guest here.

Sorry, dear!

This is Mira, Irfan's sister. She's looking for her birth certificate.

Where is it? I forgot it.

Firza, did you eat already?

I bought you a batagor, don't forget it.

- Mom… - Well, where is it?

- Mom… - Ouch, it's so heavy!

- Mom… - What now, Irfan?

Go see her, first.

Wait, this is your sister's thing.

Peace be upon you. Mira? Mira?

I'm so sorry about that!

Parents have different ways of showing their love, Honey.

That's what my dad said.

But, your mother loves you.

That's why he wants to make sure I'm fighting for you.

- Peace be upon you, Madam. - Peace be upon you.

If I may, I have something I would like to say…

I beg you, Madam.

I'm serious about Norma, I love her.

I promise you, I'll bring happiness to Norma,

take care of her, and never hurt her.

Who allowed you to come inside?

Norma, Madam.

- If that's the case, get out now. - Mom!

This is my house.

Mom!

I don't wanna talk about it.

Who do you wanna choose, me or him?

Why do I have to choose, Mom?

I love you!

But I also want to be serious with him.

I don't like him!

Do you dislike him, or do you dislike that I'm serious about him?

Remember what Ummi taught us yesterday?

"Mother, mother, mother"

If your mother says no, it means no!

But she also told me,

when the Prophet forbids something, there must be a reason…

…I don't understand yours.

You don't need to!

So, you want to break up?

I don't want to be a bad daughter.

Do you still want to fight for us?

Shall we go to Jakarta to see your dad?

It's your dad who will be our marriage guardian.

Peace be upon you.

Dad…

Peace be upon you.

When I was at the square…

I was worried that you just wanna have fun with her.

But you intend to bring Norma here.

I believe you're serious about her.

Also, I'm quite sure…

…many of her male friends couldn't stand her mother.

I am truly in love with Norma, Sir.

I love Irfan too, Dad.

If God wills, I want us to be serious.

Yeah, it's a relief for me, if you have the same feeling.

If you want to get married soon…

…then go ahead.

You two take care of the wedding, I'll take care of Mom.

Thank God!

You've already agreed?

You want to go against me?

Look, I don't want to fight, okay!

Please stop!

Norma is a grown-up now.

If they are meant to be, it is not good to obstruct them.

How do you know they're meant to be?

- Will this kind of thing last a lifetime? - Well, who knows if it can.

But if they love each other, why should we stop them?

Why don't we support them?

We can have a good marriage even without love.

What's 'good' here, you think?

You say a marriage like this is fine.

You're objecting because you care about her?

Or because you don't want to see her happy?

Happy? What does she know about 'happy'?

She knows better than you.

I am not agreeing to this!

Okay, fine!

I will marry them off,

with or without your consent!

Irfan Wardhana, son of Agus Wardana,

I marry you to my daughter…

Norma Risma, daughter of Abdul Mahmud

with a dowry of Rp 1.312.2023,

and ten grams of gold paid in cash.

I accept the marriage to Norma Risma, daughter of Abdul Mahmud.

With the aforementioned dowry paid in cash.

It's official!

Our Lord, give us

good in this world, and in the Hereafter,

and protect us from the torment of Fire.

Please take care of Norma as best as you can.

May you always be happy.

Mom…

Dad…

Thank you for raising me with love.

Please give us a blessing, Dad.

May you always be happy, Dear.

Mom…

You're the most important person in my life.

I love you, Mom.

Please give us your blessings, Mom.

You have hurt me…

…but I already forgive you.

I hope your choice is the right one for you, Dear.

1,2,3!

Hi, my dear wife!

Hi, my husband!

It's funny, just brushing my teeth makes me so happy!

Saving for Umrah.

I want to ask my mom.

You also display the lollipop I gave you to you, Honey?

Yes!

I can't believe we actually got married.

Thank God, Mom has finally given us her blessing.

Shouldn't we move to a rented house, Honey?

So you can be comfortable too.

I don't think it's necessary, Honey.

I'm afraid your mom might dislike me even more.

Besides, I promised your father to take care of her.

Your mom is also my mom too.

Trust me.

If God is willing, slowly she can accept me.

Let's take care of Mom together.

Ah, I'm shy!

Honey, I'm shy!

Sorry Honey, I'm leaving early.

Shift start times keep changing.

Aw, stop!

I'm leaving now, Honey.

Take care, Honey!

Just go, or you'll be late!

Be careful, and bring the things that are upstairs too.

Yes, Mr Irfan!

- Andri. - Yes, Sir?

- Did the items arrive? - Yes, Boss.

Everyone, let's gather in the middle!

So we're going to change shifts, please check and make sure all is in order!

Remember our motto, Honesty and Trust!

Ladies and gentlemen, let's get back to work.

Alright, back to work, let's go, let's go!

Here we are, the newlyweds!

Irfan, you look much more buff! Are you working out these days?

- Don't joke like that. - Hey, I'm serious. You look buff!

So Irfan, who's better, me or her?

- Answer my question! - Can I have the weekly report now?

Yes, I'll give it to you later. But, is she better or am I?

Peace be upon you!

Peace be upon you. Honey, what time did you arrive?

We had an appointment at 3 PM.

Oh right!

This is Etni, my team member.

-Hi, I'm Etni -Norma.

Congrats on your wedding, sorry I couldn't make it.

How thoughtful of Irfan not to invite his ex.

I'm going over there now, okay?

Are we going now?

Let's go!

Do you want to come inside? I'll prepare for a bit.

I'll stay here.

Alright, please wait for me.

Honey, how long has it been since you broke up with Etni?

Hmm, let me see…

I don't remember, Honey, it's been a long time.

Well, okay.

Be careful, okay? You're in the same job with her.

Since she is your ex, there must have been feelings left.

It's nice to be noticed by my wife!

Honey, have you responded to Rika's offer?

Rika keeps asking me.

But Mom hasn't allowed it, and I don't know why.

I wonder why. The salary is pretty good, right?

I think Mom is worried that no one will help her sell chicken noodles.

I'm the one who usually helps her after returning from study group.

If I teach at the school, I won't get home until four or five.

These chicken noodles are tasty, right?

But for me, no one can surpass Mom's chicken noodles!

Her chicken noodles are small, sweet, and savory.

I agree, Honey.

Honey, how about we make a chicken noodle stall for Mom?

The capital could come from my Umrah savings.

When I work with Rika, I will save it again.

- What do you think? - That's great, Honey.

Try it, Mom, trust me.

Your noodles are still the best!

Am I right? It's still better from you.

If it's this crowded, imagine how busy it would be if you were selling.

Mom, me and Irfan had an idea…

…what if we open a chicken noodle stall for you?

It will surely be popular!

- Where will we get the capital? - From me.

I have savings.

Come on, Mom!

I really want everyone to try the chicken noodles you make.

We'll name it "MIE RINA".

Irfan is good at painting. Perfect!

Hi.

Irfan, Auntie asked me to help you. What can I do for you?

Just clean up the inside first?

- Is it too much? - No, it's fine!

- You guys, please come and join me! - Okay.

- Thank you! - It's fine.

- Peace be upon you, Honey. - Peace be upon you.

Where's Mom?

In the kitchen.

MENU

Boss!

Hey!

Hello Boss!

- Is everything done? - Yeah, it's finished, Sir.

- This is the last one. - Hey!

Hey, help me!

Any others, Honey?

If it's like this, is it tilted?

Honey, I just asked but you stared blankly.

Is it crooked or not, huh?

In the name of Allah!

It's great.

- Good job, Boss! - Congrats Rina!

I'm really happy for you!

MIERINA CHICKEN NOODLES MEATBALLS, DUMPLINGS, MUSHROOMS

Thanks, everyone!

- Thank you. - Yeah.

- Thank you. - Sure. Good luck…

Please enjoy!

- Excuse me, Sir and Madam. - Thank you.

- Enjoy your meal! - Please enjoy your meal!

- Mom? - Yes, Dear?

Peace be upon you. Thanks for coming.

Peace be upon you. It's my pleasure, Dear.

Mom!

Peace be upon you, in-law!

- Congratulations on the opening. - Thank you.

It's so crowded, I hope it sells really well!

Please have a seat. I will bring it to you later.

Could I have chicken noodles to-go?

Mira, Irfan's sister, just arrived from Jakarta.

- Maybe next time? - Don't you want to eat here, Mom?

Your sister hasn't eaten yet! What if her gastritis acts up?

- It's okay, Mom. - Mom!

- When it's my day off, I help my mom. - Aw, what a good daughter!

Tomorrow morning I have a meeting.

Are you going to be late?

Fine, I'll take you there. I'm almost done.

Honey, you can go inside first.

Mom, can I go home now?

I have to prepare for my meeting tomorrow.

Yeah, it's fine.

- Auntie, I'm going home first. - Yes, be careful!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Can you wait for me on the bike, Honey?

Auntie.

Mom, I'll take Norma home, okay? I'll come back to pick you up later.

Oh, no need. I'll go home with Auntie later.

Don't worry, just come with me. It'll be quick.

Your hands smell so good, Mom, even after selling chicken noodles all day.

No, it's definitely just the scallion smell!

It's really smells good, Auntie. Are you sure it's scallions?

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Honey, please wait for me!

Please forgive me, God!

Gosh!

Are you okay, Mom?

Sorry, Mom, I didn't see the hole!

O Allah.

Hold on tight, Mom.

- Mom, let me help you. - No need!

It's okay, Mom. You've been working all morning, you must be tired!

Oh, you're wearing my lipstick, Mom?

You look great, beautiful and glowing!

I'm hungry.

Yeah, me too.

Wow, the boss is so generous.

We got treated to a meal and got served!

Thanks, Boss!

- Thank you, Boss. - Sit somewhere else.

You just sit there, so Irfan can be next to me!

- Come here. Sit here. - Boss.

Here, sit over here.

It's been a while since we sat next to each other, right?

Etni.

Come on, don't flirt with him! He's a married man, have some shame!

Just let me, Fajri. He's still willing to be flirted with!

He just pretends to be aloof!

Right? When there were just the two of us?

- Stop and enjoy it! - Yes, enjoy!

Is it good?

- Wow, it's so good! - Delicious!

What were you doing, Honey?

Nothing!

Did you check my phone?

No!

Don't lie, it's a sin!

Mom said…

…you were being flirted with by Etni.

What, when?

When you were at the stall.

Oh my gosh, Honey!

Anyway, Etni flirts with everyone, not just me!

Really? It's a sin to lie!

I don't lie, you don't believe me?

I'm just reminding you, she is quite attentive to you.

I know, let's take a rest, okay?

Mom?

Yes, Irfan?

Norma is already asleep, but I can't.

Can I watch TV with you?

Mom, about this afternoon,

I swear there's nothing between me and her.

Is that so?

Mom, I truly want to show you that I'm a good son

and not the type to cause trouble.

I would never hurt you, Mom.

Okay.

Prove it.

I'll go first.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

- How's that, Miss? Not too late, right? - Very impressive, Mr. Fajri.

- May I help you? - No need!

Miss, let me do it.

Should I help you take this inside?

Mr. Unim is coming here, he'll take care of it.

- I'll take my leave, Miss. - Wait, Sir!

If it's about the fare, I have money.

No, I'm confused about who to ask.

It's perfect timing you're here.

Why?

How does Irfan

behave around Etni in the office?

It's the same as… everyone else.

Who started working there first, Irfan or Etni?

Irfan!

Yes.

So, Etni was recruited by Mr. Irfan?

Yes, Miss.

Okay then, thank you, Sir.

Umm.

Sorry, please don't tell Irfan about this.

Yes, Miss. I'll take my leave.

Gosh, excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, Miss.

Oh I'm sorry, Miss! I'm a new driver!

- Be careful! - Okay.

Peace be upon you.

Honey, why haven't you slept yet?

I'll prepare a towel and warm water for you, okay?

Honey, take a shower now!

Have you eaten yet?

Mom, do you want to use this bathroom?

Yes.

After you.

Honey…

Can you explain this to me?

See? I didn't reply to anything. That's just how she is.

- She doesn't just send it to me. - But you already have a wife!

Don't ignore chats like this, you have to be firmer!

Can we not talk about that? I'm tired.

- If we don't discuss it now, then when? - I'm tired!

You should have asked me why I'm late!

My bike broke down, I was soaked from pushing it in the rain!

Tomorrow I have to leave earlier because it needs to go to the workshop.

Seriously? This is the question I get?

I'm telling you, this is important to me.

I wouldn't be like this if you had told me everything.

I'm not lying!

But you didn't tell me that Etni is your ex.

You hired Etni. I can't deal with this kind of secrecy.

Who told you this? Fajri?

If it's about recruitment, there are many, not just Etni.

Alright…

If there were many people who applied, why should you hire her instead?

It's over, there's no point in discussing this anymore.

You're being childish. I'm always wrong, and it's frustrating me!

What's wrong with you?

Sorry Mom, is it noisy?

Are you sick?

I think I have a cold.

Drink something warm, okay?

Drink this to feel better.

Thank you, Mom.

- No need, Mom. It's okay. - Don't get sick, just drink.

Why did you sleep out here?

Did you two have a fight?

It's Etni, Mom, Norma has a misunderstanding.

I don't know how to make it any clearer.

What did I do wrong?

You'll have to be patient with Norma, she's been very spoiled by her dad.

Are you going to throw up? Should I give you a massage?

No need, Mom.

Or can you apply some balm, Mom?

- Shall I call Norma? - No need, Mom.

No need Mom, thanks.

Okay, take off you shirt.

Done.

That feels so good, Mom. Thank you.

Better?

Better after seeing you smile, Mom.

You're beautiful!

- I'm sorry, Mom, I mean… - Thank you.

No one has complimented my beauty in a long time.

Have you sweated yet?

How are your feeling?

Sorry.

Rina, I'm going home first, okay?

Can't you wait until the rain stops, instead?

No, it will only get worse later.

Besides, my bike is still in the workshop.

- Alright, be careful, Auntie. - Thanks.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Wow, the rain is really heavy!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Why are you here in the rain? The noodles are all gone.

Why not go home? Norma's going to look for you.

She's been waiting at home all day.

I'd rather wait a bit, Mom, it's not comfortable at home.

Mom, don't you trust me? I've been trying to change.

For Norma, for you.

But if even you, who don't believe me, Mom…

I trust you.

All that matters to me now is that you believe in me, Mom.

Because it's harder to convince you, rather than Norma.

I really like someone like you, Mom.

You are a strong and assertive woman.

Not fickle at all.

I don't understand why Dad is missing out on you.

You look so beautiful with red lipstick.

S-Sorry, Mom.

I can't lie… you feel it too, right?

Go!

Leave now!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

- Would you like some tea? - Please, have a seat.

I was wrong, I should have told you about Etni.

But I had absolutely no bad intentions.

I don't want you to get hurt by needless worries.

Now, I also want to admit…

Etni wasn't my only ex, I had a few others.

But that's the past. Just the past.

I married you because I genuinely want to change.

I want to be the right person for you.

I can't change the past, but can we…

…please start over and have no more distrust?

It's okay…

Please forgive me too.

You're the only one I have in my heart now.

Honey!

Honey!

Honey, it's okay!

Shush…

Please forgive me, Honey!

It's okay. Seek forgiveness from God.

I have made many mistakes towards you!

Slowly, come here.

Watch out, there are stairs!

- Slowly. - Be careful!

Be careful.

Get ready!

1,2,3…

Honey, what is this?

Now, Honey, you don't have to push the bike anymore.

This is really for me?

Of course!

Honey, but this is so expensive.

I have a payment plan for it.

Thank God, I was accepted into SD Nusa Indah.

For real?

Thank God Congratulations, Honey!

Masya Allah, Congratulations, Honey!

I'll take the old one to the shop later, so you can use it daily!

Wait b-but, I'm sorry Honey…

It's still registered in my name, since I used my ID to do it yesterday.

- It's okay, Honey. - Just try it.

Come with me!

Let's go!

Why aren't you holding me? Hold on to me!

Yay, new bike!

I have a surprise for you too.

Let's have a Honeymoon before you start working.

Let's buy some snacks.

Honey, it's Dad.

Pick it up.

Peace be upon you.

Honey, what are you doing?

Mom?

Are you done?

I am.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

Nothing!

- Let's grab lunch first, okay? - Let's go.

Honey, you look so beautiful!

What's wrong?

Nothing, Honey.

What's wrong?

Honey?

Let's go to sleep, Honey. I think I'm not well.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Peace be upon you. Wow, perfect timing…

I'd like to take my leave.

Dad, you better go to Jakarta tomorrow, or you'll arrive late.

It's fine, because we have many things coming tomorrow.

Koh Akin tends to get confused when Dad isn't around.

Let me take you, Dad?

No need, I've already booked a travel agency.

Mom.

- That looks like the travel agency. - Oh yes, it is!

- I'll go get my bag first. - I'll get it for you, Dad.

Okay.

- How was the trip? - It was good.

Mom…

Next time you go on vacation, please take me along, okay?

Please stop it, Dad!

Honey, they're already waiting.

Yes, Honey.

It turns out the travel vehicle is small.

Dad.

Alright, thank you Irfan.

I give all my care to Norma, she's my only beloved girl.

I promise you, Dad.

Aren't you going to say goodbye to Mom first?

Please tell Mom that I've taken my leave.

I thought the travel van was big enough.

- Will it fit? - Of course, I'm slim.

Well, tell the ceiling repairman where it needs to be fixed!

Why couldn't you fix a piece of cake like this?

Rina?

I'd like to go home now, I need to wait for the ceiling repairman.

Yahya is unreliable!

He tends to follow people, like a spy…

- But he can't even wait for a repairman. - Are they done, Ma'am?

- Thank you. You're welcome. - It's the right amount.

MIERINA CHICKEN NODDLES

ON A BREAK

Is my order ready, Mom?

My friends miss your chicken noodles.

I also miss it.

What happened to you yesterday? Tell me!

We shouldn't have done that.

Why do you keep avoiding me?

Is it just me who's feeling this?

You are my son!

Don't make my mind a mess!

If I had a choice, I wouldn't feel this either.

OPEN

Shit!

Because of Yahya, I left my wallet behind.

Dumb, dumb, really dumb!

What? "Break"?

Closed?

The "order" is done, right?

Rina?

Rina?

What should I do now, huh?

What's the fight about?

What's that thumping sound?

Ouch! I'm stuck!

Rina, Rina, what happened?

- There is a rat! - What? A rat?

- There is a rat! - What, where is it?

-There's a big rat -Oh my! I'm scared of rats!

- That's the rat, Auntie. Wanna see? - No, no, thanks.

Get rid of it, Irfan. I'm afraid.

Oh my God!

Norma has been asleep, and I just want to tell you…

You can avoid me after this, it's okay, but please give me a moment.

I can't forget what happened yesterday.

Now what?

What do we do now?

I can't keep going on like this.

No one asked you to keep doing this.

Get out!

Look at me!

Tell me you don't feel what I feel.

Now what should we do?

Be honest with our feelings.

Mom?

Mom?

Can I come in?

Are you okay?

It's nothing.

I'm just tired.

Of course you're tired, Mom, the stall has been so busy.

You haven't had any rest.

Should I give you a massage since Irfan will be coming late?

No thanks. You just go to sleep.

Tomorrow is your first day, right?

Go on, go back to your room.

Well, okay.

Call me when you need me.

Peace be upon you, Honey. I'm home

- Peace be upon you. - Why didn't you sleep yet?

Are you waiting for me?

Come and hug me, Honey!

Aren't you tired? Have you eaten yet?

I haven't eaten, actually.

Do you want to cook, or do you want me to cook for you?

Honey…

Let's eat first. I've cooked some fried milk fish.

Just pack a lunch for me, Honey. It's getting late.

- Where's Mom? - She's been leaving too early…

…and taking a bath so early.

She said, she went to the market first before going to the stall.

Is this rice enough for you?

I made it special for you!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

ON A BREAK

Honey.

I think it's time we had a baby.

Can we skip it for tonight?

I have to leave very early tomorrow.

Honey…

It's okay, right?

Hmm.

Why did he come back so early?

What?

Let's stop now, she will be home soon.

It's 2 p.m. We still have two hours left, right?

- Here you go! - Thank you.

Thanks, you're welcome.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

- Where are you coming from, Irfan? - Back from the office, Auntie.

I'd like a chicken noodle, I'm really hungry!

Okay.

How come your hair is so wet? Where were you in the rain?

I did my wudu, I'm a good boy, Auntie.

Of course, a good boy, you must do 'wudu' a lot!

That's it!

It's over there!

Where?

There!

Here!

- Inside the room? - Yes!

Let me check.

- I couldn't see! - You can't see it?

No, no!

They won't notice!

Hurry!

- Do you see anything? - Shut up!

- I heard a woman's voice. - What was it?

"Ah… oh…"

- Oh, really? - Stop…

Record, please record!

Tell me later!

Hurry!

Oh, great, it fell!

Shush!

What was it?

Oh my God!

What are you doing?

Rina.

Washing, uh, cleaning the phone screen.

It was oily before and Auntie ask me to clean it.

Did I ask you like that, huh?

Look, there's a woman's voice inside Irfan's room.

- "Ah… Oh…" Right? - Ah ah

Let's bust them!

Auntie!

He must be doing it with that Etni!

My intuition is always right, I'm telling you!

Where is his room?

This one right?

Irfan, get out here!

- Irfan! - Come out!

If you don't come out, I'm breaking down this door!

Break this door!

Irfan!

What's wrong?

- Who is in here? - Who?

It's me.

Yahya and I heard a woman's voice, right?

- A woman? - Find out!

Open all the cupboards!

Under the bed.

What is happening here, Auntie?

Auntie.

Why do you always come home at lunchtime?

With a one-hour break, am I not allowed to rest at home?

I know you're hiding something…

…even Yahya heard a woman's voice here.

It's kind of unclear though.

Let's look out outside!

Let's go!

Watch out, I'm definitely going to find her.

If we find her, I won't forgive you. Let's go!

Let's search out front.

Can I check up in the bathroom?

Find her!

Where is she?

I've looked everywhere and found nothing.

Then where is she?

How about we go back in and apologize now.

Hey, why are you dragging me!

Sorry for causing trouble.

She wants to apologize because we misheard a voice.

You're acting like a child!

Sorry for disturbing you, please go to sleep.

- Let's go home Auntie. - You're acting so childish. You are!

I've changed the sheet and blanket.

I'm sure Irfan is lying, my gut feeling is really strong!

Auntie, where is the proof? We have none!

You did hear the woman's voice in the room, didn't you?

Yes, it's really a woman, but what if it's something else?

- Don't try to scare me! - Okay, listen…

Let's assume your gut is right and then you tell this to Norma.

Norma and Irfan get divorced for your gut, are you willing to bear the sin?

It would be better if you focused on my phone that's totally dead.

Auntie will buy and replace mine, right?

Stop!

- My gut said it can be fixed, Auntie. - Fix it yourself, then!

Excuse me.

- The whole house? Seriously? - Indeed!

"Admit it! Where is she?"

"Yahya, check all the cupboards and under the bed"

And she said, "Why do you always come home at lunchtime?"

I just said, "It's a one-hour break, Auntie."

Am I not allowed to rest at home, right?

- Would you like a tea? - Yes, thank you, Honey.

- What happened, Honey? - Nothing.

- Who passed away? - Putri.

Putri, who is the same age as my daughter?

Yes, it's Haji Maleh's daughter.

The Prophet Muhammad received the title Al-Amin, which means?

- Reliable. - Genius!

Now, these on the whiteboard…

…are the Prophet's qualities that we must learn and also emulate, right?

Sir, excuse me.

Praise to God.

Today's class is dismissed, be careful everyone.

Yes, Miss.

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Hi Dad, peace be upon you.

Peace be upon you, my dear. How are you?

Thanks to God, I'm fine Dad.

Irfan and you are fine, right?

We are fine, why Dad?

Oh nothing, I was just asking you.

Well, okay then.

- Ummi. - Oh my God, long time no see.

- I miss you so much! - How are you Ummi?

Praise to God, I'm fine!

Mom is also with me.

Ummi, we're leaving first, is it okay?

But come visit me sometime, okay?

Just because you're teaching doesn't mean you should rarely see me.

I'll visit you again next time!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

Umm.

Mom, do you think Irfan is lying to me?

I keep thinking…

Why does he come home every lunchtime without telling me?

Why don't you just ask him?

I'm afraid, he will keep calling me suspicious.

I told you from the start…

I didn't agree with you marrying him.

It's proven, isn't it?

You were suspicious, right?

Peace be upon you!

I found your address from Fajri.

OPEN - CLOSE

Who wouldn't fall in love with Irfan?

He was trying to sweet-talk us, but we didn't catch on.

We think he's being genuine, right?

We think he's a good boy.

Until finally, I found the texts…

…I was really pissed off when I read it.

Because that woman, doesn't look like a 'mistress' at all.

But she's more…like you.

She wears a hijab, soft-spoken, and mothering.

That's why I wasn't surprised when Irfan married you.

Because you're exactly his type, Norma.

The only thing that surprised me is…

…he still has another girl.

And yes, she looks like you.

You shouldn't be insecure, Norma.

What do you really want?

Because Irfan finally got what he wanted.

I only want you.

Oh, look who's so happy here!

- So, will you plan the surprise? - I will!

I'm calling my Mom, but she's not picking up.

Maybe Mom's stall is busy now…

You'd better go home quickly!

Alright then, I'll go home first so I don't get there too late.

Give my regards to Irfan and tell him 'Happy Birthday'.

Yes, I'll tell him later!

- Peace be upon you. - Peace be upon you.

- Excuse me. - Sure.

My feeling was right, wasn't it?

- Fajri! - Norma?

Looking for Irfan?

He's already left!

He left already?

- Since when? - Half an hour ago.

- Oh you brought a cake! - Well, okay, I'll leave then.

Oh right, be careful!

Oh my God!

In the name of Allah.

You know what? I think I'm in love with you now.

Oh My Godness!

What is this supposed to be?

Oh my God!

Get out, Irfan!

Come out!

Get out!

Get out, you pervert!

Get out!

- Hey! - Open up!

Irfan, get out!

It's still broad daylight, get out of there!

Irfan, get out!

Get out!

Stay strong, keep your heart up!

Please stay strong, my dear!

Irfan, get out!

Honey!

Honey!

Honey!

Honey!

Irfan!

Honey!

Open it, Irfan!

Honey!

Honey.

Honey, I'm so sorry!

I'm really sorry!

I'm so sorry!

Please forgive me. I was wrong.

Since when, huh?

Since when? Answer me!

Mom…

Since when, Mom?

Since we opened the stall?

Since I moved to my new job?

Oh my God!

Since you wore that lipstick?

Yes I know, since you wore that lipstick!

Tell me, Mom!

Tell me, Mom, since when?

Please stay strong, dear!

- Since when? - Stay strong!

Be strong.

Oh God, what did I do wrong?

God, what did I do wrong?

Norma!

You're a whore!

Jerk!

Norma!

Get in!

Stand up!

Do you all have no heart?

Do you know it was shameful, and you're still filming it?

You guys have no shame!

Get the hell out of here!

Auntie?

I'm disgusted by looking at you!

I'm not going to let you see Norma!

Don't ever call or step into this house!

Get out!

That's her now!

Alright, I'll leave now.

Dad?

What did I do wrong…

What did I do wrong to Mom?

Why is she so cruel to me?

How could she do this to me!

Why Dad?

What did I do wrong?

Irfan?

What?

The one you're hurting is your daughter, Rina!

Norma is your daughter!

Are you even her mother or not?

Get off!

I've spent 25 years in this prison!

I worked so hard on everything for you…

- …to raise your daughter. - Your daughter too, Rina!

Your daughter!

I didn't want her, your family made me!

I never wanted that child!

I gave birth to that child, I raised her by myself!

Where were you?

Don't try to find fault in me!

You are a mother who, in her right mind…

…is sleeping with your son-in-law!

You're a slut!

You're the one who made me a slut…

…you and your family!

I was just a 17…

They forced me to sleep with you when I was 17.

You've taken away all my life…

…I wasted half of my life looking after you and your daughter!

How dare you say that to my dad?

You truly hate my dad that much?

For me, you dare to do this to me?

So, you regret marrying Dad, huh?

Do you regret having me, Mom?

I feel so sorry for you, Mom…

…never knew what joy is.

We two are just burdens for you!

Thank you, Mom!

Thank you.

For showing to me…

…that you just birthed me, but were never a mother to me.

Dad, just say it now!

Rina Suwanti, daughter of Rudi Darmawan.

I divorce you

with three talaqs!

Wicked!

A whore!

You home wrecker!

A pervert!

PERVERT WOMAN

HOMEWRECKER

- With his mother-in-law! - How could he do that?

Thank God he's fired.

Gosh, I can't believe his behavior!

How disgusting to have a boss like that…

I never expected it!

I can't believe it.

Ew, I hope the new manager isn't like this.

Thank you, Dad…

…for accompanying me.

Maybe if you weren't here…

…I would be alone.

I would go crazy.

- Please forgive me! - You didn't do anything, Dad!

You've never truly felt what it's like to have a mother, Dear.

- Oh my God! Dad. - I'm so sorry.

Dad, this is not your fault!

I failed to keep you both safe.

- I can't respect your Mom. - No!

- I can't take care of you. - No, you're wrong!

If only I had stayed here, Dear, none of this would have happened.

Please don't say that!

A good mother won't cheat, Dad.

She would never betray, never!

Even if her husband isn't home.

So, there's no need to say sorry. You didn't do anything wrong.

Do you know

why I feel guilty towards you, Dear?

Actually, I already suspected that Mom liked Irfan.

But I couldn't bring myself to tell you, Dear.

I also didn't expect…

…that your husband had the same feelings towards your Mom.

- It's my fault, Dear. - Stop, stop it, Dad!

- I'm really sorry, my Dear. - Stop it, Dad!

Dear…

Do you remember what I taught you before?

Trust in God with all your heart.

God does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear.

Well, I know…

You might be sad today.

But…

…you should know that you're not alone.

It's going to be okay.

God will not leave you.

Okay?

Right now, I only feel hate…

Mad, mad at myself.

Why am I so stupid, Ummi?

I can't bear to see Mom anymore!

I don't know how to see her the same.

You can hate her actions,

but please don't hate your own mother.

What matters most now is that you pray to God…

Ask Allah in prayer…

To help you overcome self-hatred.

Mom…

Mom,

I saw Irfan's bike outside…

Where is he now?

Where is he now? Mom, tell me!

Tell me! Where is he now?

Are you all insane?

Irfan!

You jerk!

What is it?

Irfan!

Get out!

Don't run!

Don't run!

Irfan, run!

That's my bike!

You thief!

Thief!

Bastard!

Norma, stop throwing clothes like this!

Disgusting clothes!

You are all insane!

Stop, stop, stop it!

This one…

This is what gives you the right to ruin my life!

Say 'istighfar'!

You're the one who should say 'istighfar'!

Please forgive me, O Allah!

Dear!

Oh my God, Dear!

What happened?

What happened to you?

What happened to you, Dear?

Tell me!

I've said that I will forgive Mom.

But she slept with Irfan again, Dad!

Please forgive me, God.

Oh my God!

Dad!

Dad!

Wake up, Dad!

Dad!

Help!

Please wake up, Dad!

Dad…

Please, Dad, get better soon.

Without you, who will be with me?

Who will stay for me, Dad?

Please, get well soon, Dad!

Don't leave me alone!

We should stay strong…

Please, get well soon, okay?

Dad?

Dad?

Promise me, you will get better okay?

Please stay strong, Dad!

They have wronged you,

Dad, please get well soon.

Stole from you,

lied to you,

and also hurt you.

If you want to fight them,

I will give you all my support.

Or I will even accompany you, okay?

Our Lord,

we have wronged

ourselves,

and if You do not forgive us

and have mercy upon us,

we will surely be among the losers.

O Allah, please forgive me…

Please forgive me!

Give strength to this servant of Yours, O Allah.

Please answer my question Mr Irfan?

Please, everyone, be quiet!

You ungrateful wretch!

If it weren't me, no one would want to marry you.

If you know religion, you would forgive your husband, not go to the police.

Stay calm! Excuse me, Sir, we'd like to pass.

One day, when you get married again…

You better hope your daughter never feels what mine did.

So you, as a father,

won't experience what I did.

Dad, that's enough.

Enough, Sir!

DETAINEE

Please take off the vest.

Okay.

Please take a seat over there.

Today is the pronouncement of the verdict.

Before the verdict is pronounced, is there anything to be presented in this trial?

Your Honor?

With your permission…

May I speak to the Defendant?

Please step forward.

Mom…

Wherever it is…

I was born from your womb.

I'm so sorry, Mom.

If my presence makes you feel burdened, Mom…

I hope we can both overcome these trials of life together.

You are a bad daughter!

You dare to put your own mom in prison.

I believe that's enough, you may return to your seat.

The trial is resumed.

Defendants, please pay attention to all

that is said during the reading of the verdict.

Ready?

Verdict, In the name of justice based on the One Almighty God.

Ruling, Declaring the Defendants…

Irfan Wardana and Rina Siswanti,

as mentioned above, are proven legally and convincingly guilty.

Oh my Godness!

Rina Siswanti.

Rina Siswanti, you have a guest.

Please, Ma'am, have a seat.

I've set aside some money in this, Mom…

For us to go on Umrah.

I love you, Mom.

But I just want to ask you one thing…

…what did I do to you?

Well…

This might be the last time I'm here to meet your needs.

Behave yourself in prison, okay?

Peace be upon you.

You did nothing wrong.

I've tried to love you as much as I can.

But I just can't…

…I don't know why.

Let's go back to the room, Ma'am.

♪ After all this time ♪

♪ I just realized ♪

I was named Norma.

So that my life would be beautiful, conforming to societal norms.

Until today, I have never hated my mother.

Even to imagine what's in her heart and mind…

…I wouldn't dare.

But truly…

…I'm not the one you should pity.

Some women's wombs are indeed destined to give birth.

But, it doesn't mean that they have been granted a heart of love and mercy.

My only prayer might be…

When I get to be a mother,

I wish to be granted the capacity to love my child boundlessly.

Just as God loves me.
