Listening to the news that had just been delivered by his Father, of course, Ardhita became disappointed. All of that is also because they were both planning to step into marriage. Both families agreed completely. However, what the power of desire wants to embrace the mountain, but the hand does not arrive. That is what Dhita and Dhito are feeling together now.
It was not long before Dhito's turn to contact Dhita. Actually Dhita already knows and also guess what exactly Dhito wants to convey. Nevertheless, Dhita still received a voice call from her fiance.
"Halo .. assalamualaikum Mas Dhito," said Ardhita by bringing the phone to his ear.
"Waalaikumsalam, Dik ... what's new?" ask Dhito to Ardhita.
Dhito breathed a few times. Honestly, it's not easy to tell Ardhita directly. However, when a decision has been taken, then all they can do is run it.
"Be on the phone with you just now, Mas ... What's wrong?" ask Ardhita.
"Oh, you must have talked about our relationship, huh, brother?" ask Dhito again.
At the same time, Ardhita nodded her head. He knew what Dhito was trying to say. However, Dhita does not want to precede. He chose to give time for Dhito to speak.
"Already, Mas. What does Dhito want to talk about? Please convey," he replied.
"Almost the same, Dik .. same as you said. Our marriage plans should both be pushed back. First, because the atmosphere in Malang increasingly gripping. The number of people who get covid every day is increasing. Not good when making a celebration and endangering the crowd," Dhito replied.
As a health worker, also Ardhita already know with what happened. However, there is also pain and tenderness in the chest.
"That's right, Mas. The vaccine has not yet been found. Besides, I definitely can't go home, Mom. All commercial passenger aircraft are prohibited from flying" Ardhita said.
The fact that happened at that time was that all aircraft carrying passengers stopped operating. The airport was also paralyzed. If anyone can fly it's just a cargo plane. In Ranai, Natuna who landed is also only a military plane that supplies drugs to patients. No passenger aircraft was operating.
"That's how I chose to go home to Malang, Dik .. rather than being stuck in Makassar. Being in a city of people, no family, then also I was unemployed at that time. So, I chose to go home soon to Malang" Dhito said.
"True, Mas .. daripaada stuck in the city of Makassar. Better to go home and get together with the family" Ardhita replied.
"Dik, listen to Mas speak well," Dhito said later. Now it's time to talk seriously. Though the heart hurts, but reality must be faced.
"Look .. Our wedding plans were indeed pushed back. Just be pushed back, Dik .. once everything has passed and things get better, I'll ask you right away" said Dhito.
"If I am sad . I must be sad too. Our relationship is not just one day or one month, but three years. Meanwhile, it has been 2.5 years alone we have been dating long distance. I'm very sad, Dik .. but this is the best way" said Dhito.
Now, Dhito really conveyed his heart to Ardhita. He was sad too. Desire to ask Ardhita. Achieving a marriage that God desires. Marriage of shakinah, mawaddah, and warahmah.
In Natuna alone, Dhita shed her tears. Not a broken heart, just sad. All because of the beautiful plans that have been assembled together, in fact, must be delayed.
"Delayed within an uncertain timeframe, huh Mas?" tanyakanya.
"Yes, until the condition becomes good and also you have returned to Malang. That maximum, Dik," replied Dhito.
After speaking long and wide, then Dhito gave his phone to Mr. Hardi, his father who also wanted to talk to Dhita.
"Assalamualaikum, Ms. Dhita ...."
Mr. Hardi greeted his son-in-law by phone. In addition, also Mr. Hardi wants to say directly what has been taken by both families.
"Waalaikumsalam, Father," replied Ardhita.
"Look, Mbak Dhita .. was definitely Dhito has spoken with Mbak Dhita. Well, this is just adding. Indeed, the Father and Mother had been sowan (visiting, in Indonesian) to the house of his parents Mbak Dhita. Given the precarious conditions, we agreed to postpone your marriage. Just postponed Ms. Dhita. I hope Mbak Dhita is not sad. Later if Mbak Dhita has arrived in Malang, we can discuss again. What is certain is that Dhito has always loved Mbak Dhita," said Mr. Hardi.
"Excite, Sir ... Dhita knows. Thank you, Father," he replied.
After that the phone was given again to Dhito. Then, Dhito spoke to Ardhita again.
"That was from the Father, Dik .. keep our hearts both well. When the time comes, I will definitely ask you."
"Yes, Mas .. please take care of your heart as well" Ardhita replied.
"Surely, Dik .. I will always keep it for you" Dhito replied.
Although not a broken heart, it still feels heartbreaking. After this Dhito will cancel the catering and wedding building that he had once DP. It must be completed and put it off for an indefinable time limit.
