Love and the Past
The Part 179
Now the five of them sat on the sofa facing each other. Salsa sits with Reni, while Azka sits between her parents.
The servants stood watching after putting a handover on the table.
"Before saying my purpose here, I first want to apologize to Ms. Reni as well as Salsa. Forgive my arbitrary and condescending attitude ...." Ans could not continue his sentence.
Regret enveloped his heart. Because of his excessive ego and jealousy, he hurts other people's feelings.
"We have forgiven Mr. Ans, Tari's mother has explained everything. Isn't that right, baby?" asked Reni stroking her daughter's shoulder-length hair gently.
Salsa nodded in hesitation, to be honest her heart still ached when Ans offered a smile of money and also said that life was useless. However, back again, fellow humans have shortcomings and mistakes, respectively, so there is no harm in forgiving others and giving a second chance. Man never escapes sin and error.
"Yes Ma" replied Salsa.
"I meant to come here in addition to apologizing, it was because I wanted to propose to Ms. Reni's daughter to be my son's companion. Being the daughter-in-law of the Wijaya family."
Sontak Azka who had been silent, stared in disbelief at her Papi. So the intention of their arrival was actually to propose? Worth the many blessings that her Papa brought.
Not feeling the corner of Azka's lips interested, glancing at her lover. There was a certain happiness in his heart. Now no longer a proposal abal-abalan like in the field, now he officially proposed to his lover with the blessing of both parents.
"If you remember, we want to celebrate the wedding before the graduation exam is carried out. About the party can be arranged after the graduation exam ends," continued Ans.
"As Miss Reni's security?" polite Ans.
"I'm so happy to know you've come to my house to ask for my daughter Sir. But back to Salsa, he will" replied Reni.
Now all the gazes are on Salsa, especially Azka who is now anxiously waiting for the answer of the lover. Salsa's thoughts were sometimes hard to guess, and she was afraid that the girl would refuse.
The gaze of the two met, locking each other makes Azka more anxious. He named the capala as the code for Salsa.
"Iy .. yes," said Salsa with a nod of the head.
Inevitably, Salsa's face heats up as well as her stomach in the tickle of thousands of butterflies. What else saw the hopeful gaze of Azka.
"Alhamdulillah." Gratitude came out of the mouths of those in the room.
Before leaving, Azka and Reni's parents discuss the wedding day first. Like the original plan, both will only hold a marriage contract without a party for three more days.
Initially Salsa and Reni disagree, and want the marriage to be carried out after the graduation exam. However, Azka spoke up not wanting to delay it for so long.
The sooner the better aunty, I fear khilaf if overdue waiting.
That was the sentence that came out of Azka's mouth that managed to change the mood turned fluid. What else did the man say with a flat face.
The final agreement, the marriage contract will be carried out at Salsa's house three days from now and the two brides in pingit, must not meet during the specified time.
After Azka's parents, the man was at home in the house of his future wife.
"Ma, Salsa wants to go out first with Azka," said Salsa.
"Nothing, you forgot from this moment you can't see each other again!" firmly Reni.
"An hour Aunty, after that ...."
"Split now or you're on retreat" Reni threatened.
"Azka's saying Aunt." Without refuting again, Azka kissed her father-in-law's hand and passed away.
His sense of excitement gradually disappeared because he had to LDR for three days with Salsa. Leave three days, 3 hours only Azka could not stand it.
"H day is coming" muttered Azka on his bike.
