My Mother's Tears
Part 25 matchmaking
Putting a tray under the table, Maryati sat down next to her father. Every now and then the two of them clashed together and caused a smile that revealed the feelings of the two of them.
When Maryati was sitting next to her father, Mr. Kades felt unworthy to be there, calmly trying to find an excuse to leave them both.
“O Yes Ren? At this time Mr. there are still tasks that must be completed, then you guys chat first.”
“Good Sir,” replied Rendi while releasing the departure of Mr. Kades from his presence.
Calmly Mr. Kades went to the kitchen to meet his wife Marni. Seeing the arrival of her husband Marni looked at her with a casual look.
“Does your daughter have a relationship with Rendi, Mom?”
“It looks like so, sir. But still in approach.”
“Mom sure, let them meet, I know myself, if Yati is a child.”
“Yati's age has been ten years sir, natural dong if he knows men.”
“But, what will people say later Bu?”
“Udah, I don't need to worry, later Mom set everything.”
“Yes, everything you leave to Mom, please take care of her well, because at this time, Yati is still in police custody with us, before her family is found.”
“Good, Sir,” replied Marni in a soft voice.
While they were talking in the kitchen, Yati suddenly appeared among them.
“Lhoh, nduk?”
“Bang Rendi has returned home to Bu.”
“Why so fast nak?” ask his father wonder.
“Says there's a subscription asking to be delivered somewhere tonight Bu.”
“Ooo, so.”
“Nduk, sit down first,” Mr. Kades said to his adopted daughter.
“Iya Yah.”
“You're seriously in a relationship?”
“Means Dad?”
“You know for yourself, if Rendi is just a pedicab puller, then you can eat what with the results of pulling rickshaws, if you want to be patient, then, I'll find you a better man than Rendi.”
“Thank You Dad, but I'm the same Bang Rendi not necessarily serious kok Yah.”
“That according to you nduk, usually if a man has come to women, he must ask for seriousness.”
“I don't know this problem Well, Bang Rendi himself wanted to come see me in this house.”
“Yes, I know it's nduk, meaning Rendi wants you to be married.”
Long Maryati was silent, she did not know what purpose Rendi met her that night, but after her father explained in detail, then Yati realized that Rendi wanted to be serious with her.
Since their meeting that night, Maryati seemed to start to shy away from Rendi, often Rendi was disappointed because Maryati did not want to meet him. If Rendi comes to Mr. Kades' house, Maryati also pretends to sleep.
Marni who saw it became unpleasant for Rendi, then she persuaded Maryati to want to be frank with Rendi about their relationship.
“Ngot good like that nduk, later Rendi can be offended by your attitude it.”
“So how should I Bu?”
“You just meet him, tell him frankly whether you accept his love or you reject his presence.”
“I'm confused Mom, I don't know what to say to her.”
“Now I want to ask you, you answer Mom's question honestly.”
“What is Bu?”
“Is it in your heart that you like Rendi?”
“Iya Bu.”
“That means you love him, then why should you be ashamed to meet him?”
“If that Bang Rendi likes me, I don't want her to see me again Bu.”
“Why so nduk?”
“Lho why your mind can go that far nduk?”
“Mother, all residents must assume that Mother, has dared to enter a man into this house, to meet with me.”
“So you want that opo anyway nduk?”
“If Bang Rendi likes me, then have her family come to propose to me, because I don't want your surname to be polluted just because of my behavior and Bang Rendi.”
“You're right, you turned out to be smart, this time I just realized, if your meeting every night it will make all the citizens become restless. Well, later this thing I will talk to your father first, if he agrees, then we will tell it to Rendi.”
“Good Mom,” answered Maryati while sitting quietly in front of Marni.
That same night Marni shared her heart's intentions with her husband Darman. Darman responded with a sweet smile.
“Why should you smile?”
“What a natural thing we marry Maryati, I will know for myself, if Maryati still has family.”
“Mother knows it sir, but right, Maryati herself did not want to go back to her family.”
“Yes, but if this marriage problem, we have to inform his family first, it is impossible for us to marry people's children, while his family no one knows.”
“The father is right, but if Maryati does not want to meet her family how?”
“That's another question.”
“Yes it's him, sir. The mother shrimp talks to Maryati about her family, but she doesn't want her family to know about this.”
“Alright, let you talk to Maryati tomorrow morning.”
“Yo wes, it's up to you.”
After the small debate ended peacefully, they finally went through the night quietly without any regrets.
As they had agreed, that morning Darman called her adopted daughter Maryati who was cooking in the kitchen.
“Nduk, you are called Dad,” Marni said in a soft voice.
“What's Bu?”
“Mom don't know nduk, just leave the cooking so Mom can continue it later."
“Alright, I'll see Dad for a bit.”
Leaving her cooking still in the frying pan, Maryati rushed to the living room to meet her father.
“Dad called me?”
“Sit nduk.”
“Good Well.”
“Look, actually last night this thing I discussed with your mother, but we both found a dead end, about your marriage.”
“Means Dad?”
“You still have a family, it is impossible for Dad to marry you to someone, while your family is not told at all.”
“Dad, please Daddy, when I have decided I don't want to go back to my Aunt, it means I don't want to deal with her anymore. But if you want to insist also that I tell them, it's better if this marriage is canceled.”
“That's not what Dad meant nduk.”
“I understand Yah.”
“So how do you want nduk?”
“I also don't know Yah.”
“Alright, later I will discuss this problem with the Village elders, the most important thing is that you calm down.”
“Thanks for Dad's kindness on me.”
“Udah..! you don't have to talk to Dad.”
“Good Dad.”
