Between the Three Hearts
Chapters. 58 DTH

Hanum came out of his room, he went down the stairs and saw his parents sitting on the living room couch. Hanum was astonished because it was not usual for them to be like that, even now the two were staring at Hanum with anxiety.

Hanum was sitting across from his parents, he looked at Mama and Papa with a questionable look.

"Bun, Dad, what's up? Why are you looking at me like that?" ask Hanum to solve the confusion.

The two old men looked at each other and sighed softly.

Mom and Dad want to talk to you about something important, Hanum."

Hanum raised his shoulders and prepared to listen to his parents.

"We both agreed to match you up" Bahri said, leaving Hanum stunned.

"What! Matchmake? Did Father and Mother not speak wrongly?" Hanum looked at his parents in disbelief.

"It's all for your own good, son. After all, you will definitely like this young man and he is a perfect fit for you."

"Who is that young man?" Hanum wanted to know who the man who had made both his parents like this was.

"Ali." Bahri replied briefly and firmly.

Hanum immediately stepped up until he stood up from his seat, shook his head and laughed lightly.

"Origin? Teacher njai in this village?" Hanum continued shaking his head.

"Really, Honey. Mother hope you accept this match, your age is ripe for marriage and we do this all for your good."

"For my own good, huh? If Mom and Dad want to see me happy this is not the way. I can determine who my husband will be, I don't like that pretentious Master, I don't want to be betrothed to him!" hanum shouted until his voice echoed throughout the room, his chest rising and falling indicating he was emotional.

"But, Hanum! We have agreed to match you with Ali, Umi Ali has also approved your relationship. I asked you to think about this again."

Hanum insisted that he did not want to obey his parents.

"I still don't want to! And again, I already have a lover and he'll propose to me soon." Hanum finally says about his status and the lover.

The two Hanum parents looked at each other, they could not believe Hanum's chosen man.

"Does Father and Mother not believe and not approve of our relationship, hm? Even though I don't have a lover, I still won't want to be betrothed by that Master!" Hanum immediately left his parents, he had to find a place to calm his mind.

"Hanum! Oh, hanum!" bahri shouted until his neck veins stiffened.

Bahri rubbed his face violently and he hit the air.

"Well, patience. Let Mother talk to Hanum slowly."

"It's all our fault, Bun! We have spoiled the child so that he behaved as he could when growing up like this." paused Papa.

Siska just kept quiet listening to Bahri's words, she sighed and tried not to fight Bahri because affairs can be complicated if they are like that.

In the river, Hanum sat on a rock, he put his feet in the water until he sank to the calf. Hanum saw the beautiful scenery there, the clear water of the river was able to dissolve Hanum's irritation even if only a little.

From a distance, Ali who wanted to go to the river saw a woman. He did not know if the woman was Hanum, only that Ali stroked the chest because the woman he saw was very revealing. How not, Hanum is currently wearing a dress on the knee to show off the beauty of her smooth thighs.

Slowly, Ali approached the woman he did not recognize.

"Assalamualaikum, excuse me." Ali was polite.

Hanum fell silent, his foot movements that were in the water instantly came to a halt. He frowned because he was very familiar with the voice, Hanum's head was spinning One hundred and eighty degrees, he was twisting his eyeballs lazily.

"You, why are you here? Are you following me on purpose?" asked Hanum without feeling embarrassed.

Ali continued to stand in his heart.

"You're not su'uzan, Hanum. I just accidentally saw you, I'm into this river just want to take a shower. I'm sorry if you're bothered by my arrival, but I just want to tell you, it's not good for girls to be in a quiet place like this alone."

"Why indeed? Any ghosts?'' Hanum smiled cynically.

"Not that, it could have been more terrible" said Ali gave the clue.

"I'm not afraid of anything, you know that?" Hanum stood up from his seat and he hurried away leaving Ali stroking his chest.

After Hanum moved away, Ali straightened his head and stared at the river water.

"She's the woman who's going to be my future wife? It seems like it will be difficult for me to break it down, she is the kind of woman who is ugly, stubborn and does not want to lose" Ali said, recalling Hanum's anger.
