Love Sholeha
Serba serbi that morning

Until the middle of the night Agus just came home, many words that he said to convince Sholeh. For Rahma's problem and of course for her contract day tomorrow. Sholeh was still reluctant to shift from her sitting position, her eyes straight looking at the dark night from the door of the house that was still open. There were a lot of things he thought about on the last night of his bachelor's life.

Not only about Rahma who still leaves a lot of questions in her head, but about her heart that is sometimes anxious and also nervous about facing tomorrow. His desire to marry Sholeha will soon be realized, his heart is happy to continue giving thanks, sometimes still not expecting if his soul mate is this close.

There have been many things that he has been through so far, about the departure of his father, the responsibility for his mother and the effort that has been given to him since young, how much Sholeh still can't believe now he again adds responsibility as a husband to a girl younger than him. In Sholeh's heart there were doubts about his decision, not lying at that time he also put hope in Rahma. After choosing Sholeha as the final destination of his bachelor, little by little hope in Rahma eroded and lost somewhere.

He ended his daydream, his eyes should he rest so that his heart also got a little calm to reduce the tension. Sholeh went into his room, preparing to arrange his nerves and brain to rest for a moment.

The sun is still far from the eastern horizon, but Sholeha has been awakened to undergo a series of preparations as a bride. If I don't remember it wrong, he just fell asleep five minutes ago. Be the one who is busy confused about what he used to do.

" Breakfast first, you won't have time !" the order of the mother who approached him somehow at what time, the dawn prayer was not heard at that time.

" Think of eating sahur," said Irma added, she has also been busy exceeding Sholeha since.

" No need, not yet hungry "whim Sholeha to Irma, he did not dare to complain to the mother who looks more assertive today.

" Ntar you fainted even bother, do we also not know when you run make up, it could eat right it. Not to mention a timely event or not, just eat first"

Sholeha just silently listened to Irma, actually not a matter of hunger or not, Sholeha just not appetite because her heart is mixed with taste.

" Just eat first Ma'am, we're ready" said the bride fairies who just came.

" Well, wait a minute" Sholeha said.

Aided by Irma who has prepared all her eating needs, Sholeha enjoys a plate of rice with a piece of soy sauce chicken. He didn't bid for anything he was given for breakfast this time, hoping to be swallowed and be able to help him get powered up.

" His husband is Sholeh, isn't he?" suddenly I asked Sholeha who had just finished her meal.

With a smile Sholeha nodded.

" You are like invading prayer clothes, Ma'am, unique deh" he praised kindly.

" Do you mean our name?"

" Yes, he looks very soul mate" he laughed in the middle of his hand who was busy arranging all the equipment on the Sholeha dressing table. He looks so relaxed and used to it.

" Yes", Sholeha replied.

" We started yes Ma'am, according to yesterday's request. Make up natural. Hem mbaknya already beautiful, polishing little kelar deh" he praised while starting his work.

" Ah, I can't" Sholeha blushed a little.

Since it was decided that the reception of all the trinkets of the event was immediately rented by Sholeh, his shrewd and capable style was able to contact all briefly. At first Sholeha also did not expect her future husband to be able to choose and determine with detail everything including makeup and others. He really just kept quiet and accepted everything in order.

" How long has she been dating?" back then, the pottery broke the silence in the awkwardness of Sholeha.

" Ah that, we're not dating."

" Ta'aruf huh?"

" More or less like that"

" Ayeah now it's trendy huh, I often get customers who get married because of ta'aruf" she gently swept something onto Sholeha's face.

" Maybe, but we just happen to be the same as everyone else"

Sholeha closed her eyes, there was a more comfortable impression if she closed her eyes.

" Good luck yes mbak, I hear successful marriages are mostly from ta'aruf an loh."

" Aamiin, inshaAllah."

The two were silent for a few minutes, feeling that there was nothing more to say.

" I'm sorry Ma'am, "he said when he accidentally touched Sholeha's lips.

Sholeha gave a faint nod, she tried to scrutinize her face from the reflection of the glass.

" Aset Mas Sholeh this, hopefully ndak cuil "he said with a small laugh, even though he only cleaned a little color lips that look less neat.

Somehow Sholeha even tried to hold back her smile, "Not Ma'am, still a few hours away. It's still got me completely" boldly Sholeha responded to the friendly joke.

He laughed, "It's still in this seal that means, whole safe restrained"

A carefree laugh emanated from Sholeha, the tension began to subside as the kindness of the hijab-wearing woman who was very reliable melted the atmosphere.

" For the hijab, we give a small crown yes Ma'am, so as not to be too plain." he said again.

Although Sholeha would not refuse, she politely asked for permission. I don't know why Sholeha was so happy with him.

" If it is like this, people will no longer find where the bride, mbak Sholeha very beautiful" he praised when finished pairing the hijab and its crown.

" Thank you Ma'am, it's also great to make me this beautiful today" Sholeha unceasingly smiled.

" Yes equally, we wait until the event starts yes" he said while returning to make sure there is less or not.

" I can take a picture, it's a pity if it's not in the photo first. Can help for a business promo" he chuckled.

" Of course Ma'am, this is also the result of hard work" Sholeha prepared for the shoot, calculate the photo heating for the event later.

Sholeha also had time to save the camera shots of his phone, although not shared today at least he has memories before the agreement later. Not to forget there is a figure of Irma who participated filled his memory, he said mumpungung my best friend is still a girl. If it is different it feels. What exactly did he say?. He was even very lightning away, before long there was another near Sholeha.

There are several cars that have been preparing to meet the courtyard of Sholeh house, there are about five compact cars in black kinclong ready to deliver the groom. Added to know how many motorcycles are likely to also accompany Sholeh later. The distance that can be said to be close but not too close it sparks the spirit of Sholeh's relatives to deliver him.

Since this blind morning Sholeh himself was prepared, helped with his mother and friend who of course claimed to be experienced. They did not help much other than repeatedly making fun of him to calm down and not strain.

" Eat first Leh, later the gemeteran pas ijab ndak funny ah" said Dito.

He came around half an hour ago, ahead of Agus and some of his friends. He deliberately said that even though he already knew Sholeh was eating.

" Have you been here ?" ask Agus who just joined. The appearance is very neat, with a long-sleeved batik suit and matching basic pants. The aura of the father of the son of one is attached so thickly.

" Sak karep mu wes, the important thing is not just your eyes" said Agus began to slack. " Eh will be able to meet Rahma also later" he added suddenly.

" Is he there too?" Dito was a little surprised.

" Yes I invited him, whether he will come at what time" said Sholeh on the sidelines who was almost finished.

" Now, just pepetin again !" Agus seduces.

" I'm looking for the one just now, " answered Dito a little lethargic.

" Yes it's up to you. Boss kok has not changed clothes, even still a t-shirt gini?" Agus no longer mengubris Dito who has melo in the morning blind like this.

" A minute Gus, it's all ready. Just wear it"

" What time will it be, I forgot "Dito changed his sitting position more comfortably.

" Eight o'clock if not less, sometimes the predecessor is a bit embarrassed" Agus submitted Sholeh to answer.

" It's already seven o'clock, why you are still relaxed anyway Leh, bad luck later" said Dito like Nur's mother.

" You are so complicated, like my mother" Sholeh went to his room.

Dito and Agus laughed, accompanying Sholeh's departure into the room.

" Seriously Gus Rahma is there?" Dito is still curious .

" Yes, if I think about it, he'll join our entourage, the groom's side. But look at it later"

" Let's hope Ndak makes a scene" said Dito slowly.

" Who's making a scene?"

" Oh no Gus, my heart means sometimes like suddenly rame fitting see Rahma" Dito grinned the horse.

" Your baby, he said he'd like to find a new one?"

Their conversation came to a halt, when they heard the greetings from a woman they had just talked about. Both look compact.

" Are Rahma's parents?" Agus stood up to welcome him. It was true that what he thought this figure must be present in the middle of the Sholeh family. Either Sholeha knows or doesn't know about this.

" Yes Gus, I think I'm late. Miss your entourage" he said gracefully.

Dito's pair of eyes had not been diverted from the woman in a long dress without a hijab, she was glued without saying a word.

" A little more than half an hour left, the boss is getting ready" replied Agus.

He turned to Dito, briefly smiled faintly and nodded intending to say hello. Dito's intention to open up a stifled voice, as Sholeh exits his room in a black suit complete with a tie. A cool bridal style that reflects young CEOs in stories of various novels and dramas. It seems that not only was Rahma the first to be stunned, so were the two men of her age who lost young to Sholeh today. He stepped quietly, his eyes slightly describing a question on the presence of Rahma.

" Have you come?" a very simple question, but that surprised face could not be sidetracked.

" I came here on purpose, so I could take you. Mother is there too" he explained with a confident smile.

" Oh good then" replied Sholeh mediocrely.

Sholeh took a seat back like before, he also let Rahma sit down.

" Boss, I checked the one outside first" Agus said goodbye, leaving the middle room that felt the temperature changed.

Sholeh nodded, she glanced at Dito who was starting to fidget in his seat.

" I also went with Agus, it seems that outside is busy" without waiting for answers Dito has moved quickly following Agus.

A moment of silence, the two people were busy with their thoughts without staring at each other.

" The juice suits you Mas, handsome once today" Rahma praised suddenly.

Sholeh looked at Rahma at a glance, "Thank you, this is what I am" Sholeh replied.

" Your mother's home too?" Sholeh broke the awkwardness that was instantly present there.

" Yes, he said he was dying to watch your wedding" there was a slight sense of sadness heard from the voice.

Sholeh quietly did not respond, confused what to behave like.

" I heard you were going to marry Dito?" Sholeh can no longer be patient about this.

Rahma smiled, as if the question did not surprise her.

" You must have heard some of the stories, whatever you get from them, yes. Everything is right" he replied calmly.

Sholeh was a little surprised, but did not continue. He's been thinking since last night not to explore this much in the future.

" If it's not a mate, there's a substitute"

" Why not ask me about the continuation of the story. I wouldn't cover it up with you, would I?" suddenly his face turned sad. Sholeh was a little pitying, but his determination was already unanimous. Won't ask more.

" Whatever you cover from me, you no longer need to explain now, believe me I do not blame it" Sholeh explained.

"I think this is your last chance to care about me, I was wrong. But I'm not angry, I'm the big head is always the important person in your life. "the tears, can't be contained anymore.

Sholeh would not have expected, if there was something happening like this right now. He felt uneasy, his sympathy could not be restrained. But her little heart strengthened her belief, she kept trying to calm down.

" I'm sorry, I'm just afraid that my concern for you right now will only lead to a lot of hesitant decisions that could interfere with my current marriage, if there's still something you need to say wait another day at least not today." Of course, the soft but insinuating words were very powerful to stop Rahma's little cry, although actually Sholeh was a little curious but she also struggled to focus her attention awake for later events.

" Ah I'm sorry, I could have forgotten what I came here for" Rahma gently rubbed the tip of her eye.

The two were silent for a few seconds, with their minds held back.

" Kids, we're leaving. Don't delay any longer the good day will be over if you are still alone here" the firm voice was sourced from the heart of Nur bu who looks angry. He stood right in front of Sholeh, his back to Rahma.
