That man is my husband

That man is my husband
Guests Not Invited (2)


"So, what is your intention and purpose here to propose to my son?"


Degs...


"Applying?"


Suddenly my mind remembered Keanu's words. Until I speculated that the person who was with Abi was Keanu. Oh Allah, that is how seriously he wants to marry me? To the extent that he moved quickly asked me directly to Abi. If it's like this, there's no reason for me to refuse. This proves that he is really serious and I appreciate his good intentions.


I was more and more convinced to enter, by saying bismillah and painting a smile on my lips I stepped my feet.


"Assalamu'alaikum" said my greeting.


"Wa'alaikumsalam."


Uma answered my greetings. I was surprised to see Uma standing near the entrance. Abi and Aa were talking seriously with the two uninvited guests. Then Abi and Aa smiled at me when they realized my coming. A moment later I salim and whisper to Uma.


"Who are they? How come Abi looks so serious like that?" I asked Uma.


"It's a man's business. I'd better go with Uma up, yeah. Not here."


I followed Uma's words, though I was actually curious about the two guests who were sitting on their backs to the entrance so I couldn't see them. Although I'm sure he's Keanu.


Uma pulled my hand, Uma like she didn't give me a chance to look at the two guests. Even when he wanted to look, Uma immediately rebuked me.


"What's this thing? Why does Ais feel there is an aura of seriousness, anyway," I asked when Uma and I were already in my room.


"Let's sit!" Uma asked me to sit on my bed.


"What's up, Uma. How is it that I'm curious like this?"


"Next you'll know, wait for those two guests to come home."


"Why not now?"


"Because it's men's business. We're just waiting for certainty."


"Mom said rich is all the time."


"How should Uma go?"


"Or Look, now it's better to take a bath, keep praying."


"It is salat."


"Yes, take a shower to go, okay!"


"All right."


I rushed to the bathroom. Rather than me having to get stuck in curiosity I better take a shower relieving fatigue and fatigue.


***


Night in the family room.


All gathered, including my distant brothers all Abi called. We did a video zoom. Unusually. But, I better be quiet even though my curiosity and a million questions come back to my mind


After the video connection was all connected, we reprimanded each other. Removing the longing that can no longer be contained. Even so kangen Uma cried. He says he misses being together let alone missing his grandchildren. There is Kak Shafira who is in Bogor, Kak Shakila in Surabaya, Kak Rein in Bandung and Kak Arsya in Singapore.


Our distance is far apart. Some even cross other countries. However, we always feel close because our hearts are binding together. In our hearts are always kept tight and do not forget to mention each other in prayer.


In the midst of the excitement of telling each other and joking. Suddenly Abi touched my hand and brought me to a place far from the commotion of my brothers despite passing virtual.


I looked at Abi in astonishment. A moment later Abi hugged me, hugged me very tightly, yes, very tightly.


"Pig... Abi why?" I'm still in Abi's arms.


"Let Abi be like this first. Abi feels the dream of Abi's youngest child is already this big. Already not a child who likes bedwetting in pants," continued Abi and successfully make me embarrassed because it reminds me of my embarrassing childhood.


I also broke the hug


"Well, why? That's right, "Abi replied with a small ruckus until there was a slight frown on her face.


"That's Aib, Bi. And please don't remind Ais anymore. That's the past."


"Yes, it's a past that can't be repeated. Your childhood is adorable, funny and always make Abi sport the heart because your behavior is like a boy. Nimble."


I put my head on Abi's shoulder. She wrapped my hand around Abi's waist.


"Sorry, yes, Bi. When I was a child, Iis must have troubled Abi and Uma."


Abi stroked my darling head and kissed my forehead for a long time.


"Abi and Uma did not feel any difficulty at all. Precisely Abi and Uma at that time was very happy, like having a new toy. At a time when we always felt lonely because your brothers all Abi and Uma sent to the boarding school. Then you are present in Uma's womb and it makes fresh air and medicine in the voidness and aridity of the heart. To the extent that Uma did not send you to the boarding school. Uma herself who educates you, teaches you many things until finally at the age of eighteen you managed to bear the title Hafizhah Quran."


That's true and I'm very grateful. Uma and Abi have given me an amazing education. Until, even though I never set foot into a sacred prison or people say pesantren but I can have knowledge like in pesantren.


"Thank you Abi. You are ideal parents, later when Ais has married like Abi and Uma," I said as I looked up at Abi's face.


"Abi and Uma are also still learning. Far from perfect."


I'm shaking. "No, Bi. I think Abi and Uma are ideal parents and role models in this day and age."


Abi chuckles. "You're this."


Abi distanced my body, then Abi seemed to pick up something.


"Son, try to learn and consider this. Then go ahead." Abi handed over two maps with different colors.


I stared at the map after I took Abi's hand. "This is what, Bi?"


"Bring to the room and please consider. Abi won't force."


"What is this, anyway?"


"Open it later in the room. Now Abi has a need with your older brothers."


"But....'


"To the room, son."


"Alright, Bi."


I also walked to the room, while passing Aa and Uma they still seemed engrossed in conversation. Before I go to my room, I leave first.


"My sisters, Iis permission to go to the room, yes. Don't forget later if you sleep dream of ice."


They laugh.


"Yes my brother who is the most bontot, Brother will definitely dream of you," said A Arsya who is not much different rich A Rey.


"Sister, don't want to dream of ice. There's no luck" said A Rey


"Sum.." whining.


"Already, your brother's kasian do not be tempted continuously." bela Uma.


"That's horrifying."


"It's to the room, son." Abi said.


Ah, I almost forgot about that.


"Yes, ice to the room now. To all good night." I waved in front of the laptop lined up my brothers' faces.


Along the way to the room I did not stop flipping through the map. Until I opened a little map and I read the writing there.


"Cv ta'aruf?"
