Dirga Pov's
" mom sure you want us to go now.?" ask my mother who is now tidying up the batik shirt I wear.
" doesn't it have to be tonight ma." I continued
" good intentions must be served. If you can now why wait for tonight."
" it's neat. It's pretty, too. Wait mama can't wait to see you get married baby". Mama patted my shoulder. Then watch my face. Touching the fine hairs growing around my cheekbones and jaws.
" this is why it's not cleaned. If you think you're getting old, Dirga."
" dirga is old.
" the age turned out. It was told to get married, it was very difficult, "mama grumbled
" what is important now is that Dirga has been asked to marry ma. "
" thank you, baby, you are the best for my mom. I can't wait to see you get married." Mama's face looks sparkling.
Mama looks so happy. Cheerful face with a smile that always lies on his lips. I see my mom like this happy. My mother is the woman I love so much. I wouldn't have the heart if I had to let her down.
Including the wishes of this mother. I could not resist it and just denied it.
Flasbacks
" Amahin Dirga ya ma. Later in life ninggalin mama." I grasped the fingers of the mother who felt warm.
" what a hell, baby. Mama's just a little sauces. Used to rest later also healed." mama's speech sounded soft.
" uncle, Danu already banned the real oma. But oma still doesn't want to be at home. There's just something being done. " Danu, my niece looks guilty seeing her sick mama.
" you have not made a fuss. Let your mom rest. We better get out " said papa.
" mama rest. We go out first, " papa kisses mama's forehead. Then pull the blanket up to the chest limit.
Danu and I followed Papa after kissing her, who now started to close her eyes.

" opa, uncle.... Um sorry it's not Danu doesn't like it when you're here. But.... Danu can't bear to see this sick oma." Danu sighed before continuing her words. " Danu can actually live independently. If there's an oma here Danu's really happy. Because oma is so attentive to everything Danu needs. Oma's love is second to none. It's just that oma must be soybean if you still have to take care of Danu. And finally, Oma got sick. Danu can't let oma get sick. "
" Danu, uncle knows that. Mom is the best mom and mom we have. Mama also will not miss a second without taking care of everything we need. "my words justify Danu's words.
" opa.... Should not oma be brought back to Surabaya. Let oma can get enough rest and no longer tired of ngurusin Danu. "
" Danu, opa is thinking the same as you. But.... Will your oma agree if we return to Surabaya. Remembering your oma is also always your thoughts that are here. Though Opa sure if you here can learn to live independently. But... What an oma could also think like that. "
" pa... Let Dirga talk to mom. "
" all right. I'm putting it all on you"
" Thanks you uncle. Danu loves the same oma and Danu is sad to see the sick oma. Danu promise, surely Danu here will never laugh at you."

" morning ma. How my mom is today. It's much better."
I asked my mom this morning when I went into her room.
Seeing her lying weakly on the bed like this made me regret that she had left for Indonesia for almost three weeks.
" thank God, baby. My mom is feeling fresh today."
" let's have breakfast first after that just take medicine."
I helped my mom to lean on the head of the bed. I patiently began to feed my mother with the porridge I brought.
" lt...."
" why. Is there anything you want to say. "
" well exactly. Um... Ma's.... We go back to Surabaya, just yuk. Mama doesn't miss the same house. Not kangen same temen ngrumpi mama, same neighbor of the house that is underfloor....."
" you it is. Her name is ibuk ibuk where ya bawel. "mama chuckles.
I smiled at my mother who could laugh like this.
" so? ..... How ma. "
" what about what? . "asked my mother.
" when will you go back to Surabaya. "
" why? Don't you feel at home living here. "
" if Dirga is not at home, there is no way Dirga can be here more than three months. Oh this error we've been in London for four months. To the extent that Dirga can have a coffee shop here...."
" mama must be sure if Danu here can definitely live independently. Mama doesn't have to worry. After all, mama has also been able to see for herself how the daily life of Danu as long as we are here. "
" when will we return to Surabaya. Mama has longed to participate in the study of the mother of one complex mother. "mama looks enthusiastic.
" mama is serious, right? " ask me not to believe.
" Then wait for a healthy mother first, then Dirga will find a plane ticket to Surabaya." I said excitedly.
" eits wait a minute. There's one condition you have to meet, "mama looks at me and somehow my hunch gets bad.
" condition? What are ma requirements. Why use all the conditions. "
" yes if you don't want to. You better go back to Surabaya by yourself so that mama stays here. "
" oh no mama. If Dirga returned to Surabaya, my mother also had to come. Tell Dirga what the conditions are. "
" you must marry. "
" what ma!!! Just the real one. There are no other conditions. "
" that's why if mom wants you to get married. You are also old enough. It's been thirty years. Not abg anymore. "
" but ma.... Who would you marry? "
Mama frowned." There was Camila. "
" what is ma? Camila.? Why should Mila. "I rubbed my face frustrated with my mother's unreasonable desire.
" what happened to Mila. "
" Camila's still in college. He would not want to be married before graduating and becoming a doctor. "
" if that's my mom's business. Later we immediately apply him just as soon as he arrived in Surabaya. If you wait for Mila to graduate and become a doctor later. Hunting you already gray hair. Mama is compatible with Mila. Mama believes Mila is a good girl and deserves to be your wife. No matter what happens, you should be able to marry her. "
" but ma.... "
" but why? Let mama arrange it. You have calmed down. Later we set the application schedule after arriving in Surabaya. "
I have to say especially if my mom is already talking.
Flasback.
**********
" papa let's go now. Later the night hunt. "the father who was reading the newspaper, immediately stood up and put the newspaper on the table.
Papa is also neat with his batik clothes worn. Mama looked excited, taking a look at papa's arm walking out of the house towards the garage.
" let Dirga drive ma. We don't have to bring a driver."
" you sure want to bring your own car."
I'm nodding.
" by the Londoners that you've prepared for Camila's family what's been put in the car."
" mom." again I nodded.
" yes, already then. We're leaving "
I opened the car door for my mom. When Mom got back in, I closed the car door.
Actually I've been deg-deg an since. How not if this application event is the mama who arranged everything. Not even Camila's family knows about my planned arrival.
I was planning on taking Camila to talk about this mama's plan. But unfortunately once we arrive in Surabaya mama has just hit the gas. Invite me and papa to propose to Camila. And I can't resist my mother's wishes.
----
Arriving in front of Mila's house, this heart works even more. An Aerospace Aerospace can do this just because they want to face a woman. When facing dozens of investors alone I always believe myself never feel nervous like this.
Luck is on my side. Because now I can see if Camila's home. The girl was even watering flowers in the front garden.
As soon as I got out of the car, Mila looked at me with I don't know what her gaze meant.
Maybe he was wondering what I was in his house for.
I walked over to the side of the car and opened the door for my mom. While papa, already out through the next door. When I turned around it turned out that Camila was not alone but there was a Mother standing next to her. As soon as I saw me Mother immediately smiled and this made me even more nervous.
I really do condemn my actions that fulfill my mother's wishes. Now is a less than appropriate time. It should be that show at night. Not this afternoon. Look Mila, that girl hasn't had a bath yet. His appearance is still kuel with hijab shirt covering his head. Even so she still looks beautiful in my eyes. The beauty she possesses is natural. So even though she was only dressed in a house shirt, she was still charming. Plus the mother who also only wears a negligee with a box in her hand. If I'm guessing maybe it's a cake box.
I scratched my nape. Feel silly with all this. The guest had looked neat like this wearing a batik shirt as well. His host is still not in the shower. I chuckled to myself to feel funny about the situation.
" why even bengong there. Come on" Mother has already pulled my hand through the fence to the yard of Mother Carnation's house.
