365 Days Towards Halal

142 #266 days, from now on

After the ring exchange procession has been carried out. Now, the discussion about the wedding of Raka and Queen. Both families could not find a common ground. The event that was going to be held for 3 hours only, now has 4 hours passed.

Raka's family wants a marriage that they think should be all-round with customary concepts and rules. While the Queen family intends to carry out the wedding as soon as possible, at least 3 months from the day of this engagement.

Queen and Raka had felt tired when they saw the very serious conversation. They are both very afraid, if their happy day even makes a split between the two families. While Kimmy and Athar prefer to stay away from the discussion. The two of them, who are still newlyweds, were both cool in Athar's room on the upper floor.

Actually not unemphatic, they only feel worried when things happen that are not desirable. Kimmy and Athar feel unable to hear the dispute between the two families.

"So this is the look and feel of Amara, if next year the age of Queen is already thirty-one loh. Shouldn't it be accelerated?" Ask Mother who does not agree if the marriage will be held next year.

"But the wedding was Jeung's process. For example, preparation, this event is the event..." Mrs Amara tried to ask Mommy to understand the fruit of her thought.

Mother was silent, she let out a long breath. While the Fathers fell silent.

Om Bobby glanced at Queen and Raka who looked anxious. They know that nothing can break the debate between mothers, especially those who feel they have children who are getting married.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, I want to ask the bride first" said Om Bobby, who felt the atmosphere was starting to tighten.

"Monggo please," said Gunawan's father.

"I'm sorry, Ladies and gentlemen, I took over for a moment."

"Queen and Raka have known each other for how long?" Ask Om Bobby.

Raka and Queen looked at each other.

"How long is it?" Raka asked as she scratched her non-itchy head.

"December isn't it?" Ask Queen.

Raka seemed to think for a moment. Then he rounded his eyes.

"Yes, around December" Raka said.

"That means less than four months?" Ask Om Bobby.

Raka and Queen nodded in unison.

"When exactly? What date?" Ask Bobby again.

Raka shook her head, she began to be confused by Om Bobby's question.

"That is, ever since you two were close," said Om Bobby again.

Raka thought hard again. Then, he remembered he had made a wish on the day he was trapped in an elevator with Queen. He remembered very well, if he really prayed, and wanted the Queen to be his.

"Ninety-nine days ago!" Raka Seru.

Bobby smiled and looked at the two men. Not only Raka and Queen who do not understand what Om Bobby means. However, his wife and both families were confused.

"I guess, an introduction for one year or three hundred and sixty-five days, is enough to get married. Give space and time that is not too long, or not too short for Queen and Raka," said Om Bobby.

Both families looked at each other.

"Actually om, ninety-nine days ago, why did I say we were getting close? Because the truth is so. We were stuck in the same elevator for almost two hours. And actually, I was already in love at first sight with Queen when we met at the Mall. It's just that, when I made a wish, I wanted to get close and serious with Queen. I don't know why I immediately intend to be serious with him," explained Raka.

"Queen, I told you once, I fell in love at first sight with you. It was honest without the slightest lie from my words. The matter of the request, I actually prayed in my heart. I have not prayed for a long time, but once I pray, I ask you to be my companion" Raka said bluntly in front of their two families.

All were silent, listening to Queen and Raka talk.

Raka grasped Queen's hand gently and kissed both of Queen's handbooks.

"If three hundred and sixty-five days is one year, and we have passed ninety-nine days, then I will marry you 266 more days. How come? Isn't that exactly one year? Can't we prepare without anyone feeling too fast and too long?" Raka.

All are still a thousand languages.

"Why do you remember the day we were near?" Queen asked with a red hue on her cheek. He continued to be flattered by Raka's words.

"How did I forget, whereas back then I was actually praying to be betrothed to you?" Raka.

Om Bobby smiled, seeing Om Bobby smiled, the whole family smiled to see the romance of Raka to Queen.

"That's my future daughter-in-law Nia..!" Whisper Mother Farah to Aunt Nia.

"Yes and yes.." Aunt Nia laughed amusedly.

"Late December, we're getting married. Exactly three hundred and sixty-five days, where I once prayed to have this wonderful girl. Let it be, I can hold it until the end of December. We can continue together without breaking the rules of religion. God willing, we can and will do everything, including our marriage."

"We, as two people who want to get married, please pray the blessing of all, parents, brothers and relatives, bless our intentions," continued Raka again as he bowed his body.

Madam Amara and Mommy nodded in agreement, accompanied by all who were there.

Raka smiled happily, even Queen who could not stem the feeling of haru and happy. He never expected that Raka would ever pray to have herself just after they got stuck in the elevator.

"Raka," said Queen in a spoiled tone of voice, as well as tears held in her eyes.

Raka smiled and started hugging Queen.

"Ehhhh... ehhhh! Why hug my son?" Said Andra's father, who was more protective than Gunawan's father.

Raka immediately let go of her embrace and smiled misbehaviorally. While Gunawan's father and parents just shook their heads. It was not because Queen was hugging Raka. However, they felt Andra's father was a bit overdone.

How not to overdo it, all this time half-dead Andra's father educated and took care of Queen. In fact, his love was more than Gunawan's father's love for Queen, compared to his love for Queen.

"Prophe dong," said Madam Amara with an annoyed face to Raka.

Raka's getting the wrong way. Queen just smiled and put her hand on the arm of Andra's father who looked sewot.

"Labay's father," Whisper Queen.

"Your best husband!" Reply Andra's Father.

..

Deep in Andra's father's heart, dazed by the fear of losing Queen. However, inevitably, the Queen must belong to someone else. Because Queen deserves to be happy with her life.

Such is the feeling of a Father that we may never know, when it will release us to start a new life.:)
