About A Taste

Izin

Brava! For what! It's like a prized prank. The long-awaited proposal turned out to be fruitful. Initially it was just a fad, because time is still serving in the pesantren. He married Cak Ibil. It is impossible if allowed. But now after getting the call received, happiness again burst forth.

It's been the 5th month after the application was sent Wardah. Nearly half a year finally came to fruition. Now all you need to think about is asking permission from Mother. Wardah sure it will not be easy for Mother to release her daughter.

I still deserve a girl's nickname, right? Still, cooking is not sloppy. I'm still ting-ting Lhu-Lhu....

"Assalamu'alaikum Caca?" Wardah's phone call is connected.

"Wa'alaikumussalam Wardah, hey! How's things? I've long been not content," replied Caca, one of Wardah's friends who was an alumni of a boarding school with Wardah first.

"It's usually like a millennial kid. Thank God good Ca," Ledek Wardah.

"Hahaha, what's wrong? Tumben direct telphon. Usually a chat," asked Caca.

"I got accepted into the ad company you recommended first Ca!" Wardah.

"Seriously? Whoaaahhhhhh! Daebak! We're going to one office, man! Uhuuyiyy! Didn't know the cave! Kirain your application has been deposed from HRD. Haha." Answer Caca with no less excitement.

"I also did not expect. It was a long time ago. I think it's a hoax email. When I checked again, it was real. Yes I am confused, what is the permission to the Mother Ca... I'm not sure if I can," Lirih Wardah.

"Safe! Later the cave that tries to persuade your Mother. We have to go to Jakarta. This weekend the cave to Jombang pick you up. Which you now think, by the way, you're talking about those twins." Answer Caca reassuringly.

"Eh! Mother seems to want to enter, already yes. Mother's number is still a long time, please persuade. Assalamu'alaikum!" Wardah turned off his phone.

Sure enough, with a smile that expands Mother approached Wardah who is now sitting on the sofa of her room. Mommy told me all the reports she got from Mbak Naura. This is mah! Apparently Mbak Naura routinely gives reports.

"You take care of Mommy's boutique?" Question or statement. Wardah doesn't know either. Actually he did not want the sentence out of Mother's mouth.

He did not want to take care of the store. He wanted to get out of his comfort zone. Seeking what his heart wills which is delayed by other obligations. But he couldn't resist it.

Okay Wardah! Shatter your heart. Let's talk to Mommy now!

Wardah tried to calm herself down. Stabilize the heart to be able to talk to Mother.

"Mothers know dedek want to work in the office," Lirih Wardah by grasping Mother's fingers.

"He'em, then?" Ask Mother later.

"A few months ago, the grandpa tried to send a proposal, then now the job application is accepted," replied Wardah.

"Good dong, then why hesitate to talk to Mother?" Ask Mother again.

"The location is in Jakarta" replied Wardah.

Mother was silent for a moment. His hands were a little cold in Wardah's grasp.

"Why is that far?" Ask the Mother at last.

"Dedek has tried to send applications in Surabaya, Malang, Solo, even the city of Jombang though. Some are accepted, but at that time dedek was still serving in the pesantren. So not taken. Don't you take it anymore, Bun?" Wardah.

Yep! He did send many job applications at that time. But it was all pure snickering. Some are accepted, and some are not accepted. Since he was still in pesantren then married to Cak Ibil, so he did not take the opportunity.
