Accepting Iyan's proposal

"A-, I-." Melati turned to look at Mother who was already in the living room carrying coffee, surprised and wanted to immediately release the hand from Iyan's grasp, even being held by the man, really made Melati dag-dig-dug unfavourable.

"Mother!" call Iyan was very brave to look at Mother even though it did not reduce her polite attitude, but Iyan's warm hands did not in the least loosen from Melati's hands.

Mother put the coffee once glanced at the hands of the two young people in front of her. Then Mother stood up straight looking at the face of Iyan who had always seemed to want to talk.

"Mom, Iyan wants to propose to Melati, really wanting to make Melati my wife. And I hope you don't mind accepting my sincere intention to be Melati's husband, Mother's daughter-in-law." she said firmly, confidently, her face looked calm.

Mother was stifled to hear Iyan's sudden proposal, boldly the young man still clasped Melati's hand. While Melati can only bite her lips and look down nervously.

"Have you talked about it with Melati?" asked Iyan.

Iyan turned to Melati, watching for a moment the beautiful face just looked down, the finger in Iyan's grasp felt reciprocated. Iyan smiled confidently if Melati wanted and accepted. "Mails?" call me soft Iyan.

Melati raised her face slowly, looked clear in Iyan's eyes for a moment, then looked up at Mother.

"If Melati has agreed, do you both approve?" Mom looked back at Melati.

"Dear Ma'am, accept Mas Iyan's proposal." she replied in a smooth voice, sounding melodious in Iyan's ears.

"Then you call your father, tell him you're going to accept Iyan's proposal. But, I still think about how your relationship with Arka has received Iyan. Did Iyan know that Melati had been close to Arka?" asked the mother to sit in the chair opposite Iyan and Melati.

"Already know Mom, As long as Melati is willing to accept me, I will face Mas Arka, and I will speak well with her later." Iyan was sure.

There was a certain relief in the heart of the mother, but also worry about the fate of the Ark. The man who had accompanied Melati for three more years, suddenly had to lose Melati in an instant, unexpectedly the presence of a new person made him knocked out of his son's heart.

Sad, maybe Ibu Nur also felt sad. Why didn't Arka just propose to Melati like Iyan? Why not Arka who is brave and sincere like Iyan? Mother in a dilemma tonight, the elderly woman can feel how much Arka loves Melati more than ordinary love feelings, Arka will certainly be hurt.

"Mas! Aren't you going to regret choosing me?" Melati asked again very seriously this time.

"No Mel, I really want to live with you. My oldest brother just got back from Borneo, and wants to take me there next month. We're getting married soon and I want you to come with me." Iyan assured Melati.

"What about Mom?" tanya Melati turned her head towards the kitchen, mother has already entered the room.

"Mas will call your father, I'll go home and accompany Mom. Salary there is quite large, we can send money to Mother to help." Iyan had really thought of everything.

"That doesn't need to be. Melati was only worried about leaving her mother in the village alone. If for daily needs Melati taste is still enough from the plantation alone." said Melati softly. Of course the language and the way it makes Iyan really want Melati.

"Mom will be fine, believe me" he said.

Melati smiled sweetly, it was peaceful to sit with Iyan. Not worried that his hands would wander, not afraid of sinful deeds even though Iyan also liked Melati's fingers and grasped them.

Unceasingly a smile bloomed on Iyan's face, a simple but special man. His heart is very happy at this time, the girl has long been willing to be his wife. The eyes of the man were also incessantly staring at Melati's pretty face. "I love you so much Melati, can't wait to be your husband" Iyan said sincerely and affectionately.

"Thank you Mas Iyan, Melati is so happy tonight." Melati replied with her red lips.

"We will face tomorrow together, don't change this decision again, I really want us to live together."

There was a phone ringing on the table, it looked like it was Arka. Iyan who understood and chose to go home, he did not want to hear their conversation because the most important thing for Iyan was that Melati was willing to be his wife.

"Mas, are you so angry that you go straight home?" ask Melati slowly when it is on the doorstep.

"No Melati Darling, it's night, and you need to talk to Arka" she said smilingly enjoying Melati's beauty.

"alright. Do you want to pick up Melati tomorrow?" pinta Melati spoiled.

Iyan smiled again. "See tomorrow yes, because Mas Arka will not stay silent, so we have to be patient. But still meet at work" he said approaching jasmine's face a little teasing.

Melati nodded, unwilling to refute what was true.

Shortly after Iyan passed, Melati immediately entered picking up a phone call from Arka.

"Yes the Arka?" answer soft jasmine.

"A long time Mel? Are there any guests?" tanya Arka was suspicious.

"No Mas, just sitting in the kitchen" Melati replied lying.

"You're not lying, are you Mel? I'd know if you weren't honest." Arka a little threatening, of course it is common to hear Melati.

"No Mas!" upset Melati, really tomorrow morning Melati wants to immediately break her relationship with Arka.

Arka was upset and immediately turned off her cell phone call, she clearly knew that Melati had started to disobey, and she was lying.

...***...

"Mell!" snapped Arka that morning.

"Yes!" jasmine replied subtly, yet unseen looking down let alone scared as usual.

"You dare lie to me, Iyan came here last night, didn't you? Have you dated her? What are you doing with her that's so hard to pick up the phone from me?" angry Arka does not care about anything, fortunately I have gone first to the vegetable plantation.

"Mas! You don't have to get angry and go on a rampage like this. Can you talk to me?" Melati tried to take Arka to sit down.

"Explain to me what you guys did last night? Did you sleep with him?" Arka stared intently with reddened eyes.

"Mas Iyan isn't like that Mas!" bela Jasmine.

"Don't you think I wouldn't know Melati! Tell me what he came here for last night!" snapped Arka again, of course snapped many times it makes Melati follow emotions.

"All right! I'll be honest, Mommy."

"What's? Say it!" Arka gets more upset, approaches Melati.
