Reasons Behind Marriage Plans

"I eat alone, right?" when he realized that he was eating alone.

"And I was like a child, " Linda replied as she continued to look at her husband by propping her hands under his chin. Makes him suspicious.

"What's wrong? How, looking at me like that? Do I look very handsome, huh?" wirawan asked, while teasing his wife.

"Did, ge er. Uh yeah, deng, Abi is handsome. Very handsome, making me always flirted, " woo his wife, respond to her teasing while mocking her smile. Make it so laugh amused, because it is not usually used to seduce all events. But he was happy, his heart was so flowery. It feels back again to the ABG era who just knew love. Then feed his wife a fried banana.

"Come, come eat, open your mouth! No exclamation, ah eat alone, "he said.

Immediately, Linda accepted her bribe. They ended up bribing me while joking. While the children are still at home in the middle room, again watching tv while joking too. So, rame deh.

While feeding each other, Linda began to talk about Daffa.

"Bi, I had a conversation with Daffa about our plan to match him with Rima, my best friend's daughter, Aini."

"Oh, how do you keep responding?" ask Wirawan.

"It has not been answered, but he said to be considered, ask for time to think. But he wants to accept, deh. Maybe it's because of me and Ira. Ira is very supportive. Even he is more excited," said Linda.

"Yes, wait for his decision. Let her make her own decisions, "said her husband. Linda also agreed.

Without the taste of fried bananas that they eat out as well. Sweet tea is also a toilet. Linda immediately cleaned the dining table, brought dirty dishes and glasses to the kitchen and washed it clean. Wirawan was busy observing the busyness of his wife from where he sat.

'The spirit really wants to quickly have a ghost, ' he murmured inwardly, smacking his smile.

A week later, Linda intends to again inquire about her own decision regarding her matchmaking plans. He was curious. Linda came to Daffa's room. He saw, Daffa was engrossed with his laptop on his lap while sitting leaning on the back of his bed made of carved iron, with a pillow. Seeing the arrival of the woman who had given birth to him made him turn his head,

"What's up, Mi?" ask Daffa.

"Why so?" Linda asked back, chatting open the conversation while sitting next to her.

"This, again do the college work, Mi, " replied Daffa while still staring at the shady face of Umminya.

Daffa, sometimes ignorant, he could never ignore his birth mother. He loved her very much. Always want to make her happy. I always want to fulfill her every wish. I can never refuse. Fortunately, umminya always invite him or tell him to the good thing, not the strange let alone deviate from the guidance of religion.

"May Ummi speak for a moment?" ask Linda.

"May, what's up, anyway?" daffa asked as his eyes looked at his umminya face. Attentively.

"Ummi just wanted to know, has there been no decision yet about Rima?" tanyakanya.

Actually, Daffa had expected what he wanted to talk about. Because there was a conversation there before. He hasn't given an answer since.

"Ehm, actually Daffa is still confused, Mi. Why did Ummi really want Daffa to marry quickly? Especially Rima who is still a high school boy. It would be a pity if he still had other desires before marriage. He was afraid of becoming a burden to her. It's not good going forward either" Daffa replied honestly.

Slowly Linda explained the reason, though,

"Yes, Ummi just want to give consideration to you. Seek to choose a soul mate for you. As a parent, Ummi wants the best for his children. That's it, actually. It just so happened to meet again with old friend Ummi who was separated since graduating high school. Ummi knows Aunt Aini and her family. So does Om Ridwan, Rima's papa. He's our upperclassman. They are from a good family, understand religion, surely they have educated Rima to be a good girl and good at maintaining her honor by closing her aura. Yes, it can be seen from his hijab-wearing appearance with shar'i. Even though Ummi himself just knew him the other day just as rich as you. But knowing he is close to Ira makes Ummi not hesitate to match you with him. You heard yourself how Ira judged him last week, right. So, there was no need to bother any more adjusting to them. It's just the same Rima who adjusts to each other later."

Daffa fell silent trying to digest his umminya words. Seemed contemplating. Seeing that, Linda asked, so,

"Why, you don't like to be fooled by gini-rich? Want to find it yourself? Or do you want to refuse? Or not ready yet?" Linda nodded at him with questions.

Daffa answered immediately,

Linda was amazed to hear the answer from her eldest son that could bring out words that were so wise, mature, looking forward to the concept of a marriage that she wanted. Usually likes silly, ignorant, indifferent, and still likes to spoil it. It was like not dealing with his son. Like seeing someone else in him.

Suddenly he was struck by the call of Daffa who patted his arm softly,

"Mi, Ummi, Hello, why so dumb? Look at Daffa so rich, anyway?" asked Daffa confusedly, while moving his hand to kira and right in front of his umminya face.

"Oh yeah, it's okay. Didn't know that Ummi's son was an adult. Until you forget that you have gone to college, it's big, " replied Umminya, while pinching both cheeks and then kissed both cheeks back and forth so anxious. Making Daffa laugh.

After Linda stopped her kiss, Daffa so spoiled scowl, she said sillyly,

"Ummi this is how it is, anyway. He said, ask Daffa quickly marry until fooled all. Keep asking for answers. When answered, even rich gini response. Obviously dong Daffa is big, mature, well maintained, well taken care of. If you are a child, I will marry you too. Later the title is rich Little-Small So Manten, dong. Uh, rich heard that title, huh. Where is it, huh? " his forehead was wrinkled, remembering something.

Eventually the two laughed. Then Linda ruffled her hair. Still not lost, too, it turns out.

After settling down her son, Linda asked again,

"Well, what do you want to take Rima?"

Daffa replied in his silly style,

"And it was answered, how it used to be the same. If you want and ready with the responsibility ahead at the age of Daffa anyway, okay. If he's not ready, that's okay. Not disappointed, not wanting to. Just understand. If a grateful soulmate, if not, yes. kudu, " while grinning meaningfully.

Linda chuckled, what else when she heard her last words.

"That's the same as maksa atuh, " said Linda amused, flicking her finger on her eel, making her so stir and grimace, then rubbing it.

"Duh, from earlier the feeling of Ummi really torture the child, anyway. I've been pinched, kept kissing, uh it's been snatched again, "spoiled Daffa protests. Pouty. Sulks.

Hearing that, Linda grew even more chuckling. Then come rubbing his jidat.

"Yes, yes, sorry. The end of Ummi's child is megegemesin, anyway."

"So right, yeah. You want? Next let Ummi business, " Linda said.

"Then, " replied Daffa.

After she calmed down, Linda spoke again,

"Listen, Son. Ummi is happy and proud that you already have your own concept in building your household later. Agree with your thoughts as well. Precisely because you are a man, will be a husband, a priest, who will guide your wife. That's why you must have a clear concept, a kind of vision and mission of life. Let it be more directed to be taken where the Big Dipper of your household will be. Do not be like running water, just follow the flow of water wherever it goes. Upstream okay, downstream is also okay. That's his name. Marriage is the largest and longest worship of a lifetime. A sacred and sacred bond capable of shaking His Asry, as you chant the marriage contract."

"So what about Ummi first? The same marriage time Abi is exactly rich Rima, right? Marriage after High School. What makes Ummi want to accept Abi, marry at that age?" ask Daffa to know.

Slowly Linda told me,

"Honestly, at first Ummi was hesitant, confused, when Abi first said he wanted to apply, before graduation also rich Rima gini. At that time Ummi was again preparing for the final exam. And still have the desire to do many things after graduating high school, such as college. So it is not answered immediately, ask for time to think about it. It turned out that Abi was willing to wait and let Ummi focus on completing the national final exam. Only after graduation and separation did Abi reapply. He managed to convince her that he would not get in the way, with a record of not shirking his obligations and responsibilities as a wife and mother. Both are equally obligatory, he said. Perfect with the desired answer. That's why Ummi finally wanted to accept Abi. And got married two months after the breakup and before college."

Daffa mangosteen.

"Oh, so that's the story. "

Then his advice flowed,

"Yes, so the point is, the main key is in you. Must have control. Because you're the head of the family. The leader in your household. While your wife is a makmum, your follower as long as you invite to goodness. Not wreck. Not too restrictive nor does it set him free just like that. You should also be able to convince Rima that she will not regret marrying you at such a young age. The woman, usually more easily directed, educated, formed, because her nature is like that. That is serving the husband, taking care of the children and being a household manager. Well, all that needs full support and strong motivation from you as the closest person. You see what Ummi means, right?"

Daffa. Start to understand the good intentions of the ummi.
