We've Been Matchmade
Dinda Don't Be Cocky

Ever since we split up in the parking lot, Dinda hasn't stopped calling me. From missed calls to messages asking why Lucy's father came to see me? To answer his curiosity, I answered because there was important business related to college. Actually I did not lie, I did not lie, college here means Lucy's college that was forced to jam because she was sick due to heartbreak because I married another woman. I deliberately didn't speak for what it was because I was sure this would just be a problem. For the problem of jealousy, be careful because the heart of women is difficult to guess. For us it seems to be very important to him. That's why I try to avoid all of that. The current problem is enough to make this head throbbing, do not add new problems first even though the name of the problem is a household spice, but if most spices still taste bad.

But unfortunately, this problem for Dinda has not been resolved. He still questioned as soon as we met in the parking lot to go home. Along the way, he kept asking. What is it, why and why?

"OK I tell you but promise not to misunderstand what else to blame the husband himself. You really have to trust me!" I said, make a deal so I don't get in more trouble.

"Yes yes!" he agreed though ogah-ogahan.

"Lucy's sick."

"Oh Allah, shafakilah ...."

"A week won't wake up."

"Why?"

To answer this question I was a bit hesitant, honestly worried it would only add to the new problem of misunderstanding.

"Why is his father looking for you? Aren't you a doctor, Yang? His parents and his family were great doctors. Why?" ask Dinda again.

"Because they feel like I'm making Lucy sick" I replied.

"Well, how can you?" Dinda frowned. But suddenly he was silent. Then I looked at me sharply.

"Why see me like that?" I asked back, uncomfortable with such an intimidating look.

"You have nothing to do, right?" accuse Dinda. "If there's nothing, why is he sick? What's the matter? You have to explain everything to me!" pinta Dinda, a little pushy.

"You need to keep your distance. Don't get too close to anyone, let alone the woman's heart is fragile, given the attention of some who fall in love, it is considered really like." Dinda still looks upset.

"I never paid attention to him. I'm close too because he's giving me a job link. That's it." I defended myself according to reality. Although people say I am handsome but abstinence also to easily give hope to women. I used to love Amira alone never gave her hope or jor-joran approached, I know myself, when not ready so always keep your distance. Only on Dinda did I get in touch pretty intense because I was sure the end would be to the guarantee.

"Yes still, it should be reduced. If this is not good too. Children until sick. I also can't possibly let you get close to him!" Dinda. Actually without him having to talk like that I also do not expect to be close to Lucy. First I do not have feelings with yes, the second keeps one woman is still slamming, just to contract no money let alone have to marry two. Some of Lucy's family is also realistic, not likely to want to give up their children who they believe will get a better soul mate without having to marry me. Like there are no other men.

"That's it, Yang, it's all done. What they need we've helped, so there's no more business. Just stay in prayer may he get well quickly and find the right person "I said. Dinda did not answer, just kept quiet.

"Are you moving next week?" ask Umi, when I and Umi are alone at home. Dinda is at the market, while Abah is at the office next door.

I'm nodding. Then umi pulled out a white envelope pretty guess what.

"What is this, mi?" my many.

"Don't tell Dinda. It's for you and Dinda to start a new life. Dihya, umi is sure you can be relied upon, but still, umi does not want you and your daughter-in-law to be lacking. Use this money for your capital to build a household. And one more thing, if you lack money, do not hesitate to meet Umi. Umi's money is still very much, will not run out for both of us. So do not hesitate to ask for the same umi yes. Don't let Dinda feel short. Poor him, all this time his life was very happy. Do not let after marriage become a shortage. Remember that Dihya. If you are embarrassed, just talk to us, umi will not tell anyone including your brother" said Umi.

"Mi" I hugged the woman who gave birth to me. Umi was so worried when we decided to move house, one of them was because of this. Umi does not want me and Dinda lack because I know my job is not yet established. Only the clinic guard whose salary is not up to a million plus translators who also income is not fixed. Even though after this there must be mandatory expenses that cannot be avoided, namely rent and meal money.

"Remember Dihya, do not let you make Dinda forced to work. Let him finish his studies. You must remain in charge of your family finances. Just like Abah who is always responsible for the burden of our lives as a family" said Umi again.

"Yes, insha Allah Dihya understands. Dihya is going to college diligently to become a doctor soon and work hard for Dihya's family." I said.

"Yes, the Umi prayer for you." I know, umi Masin is very heavy, but umi is trying to mengikhlaskan because umi realized this is the phase of human life. He will not be with his parents forever. It will be time to paddle his own ship.
