Akad Shackle

Longs

Week pass....

The wedding plan will be in one month. After the proposal event continued with the Tama prank, the two families immediately discussed the right time for the marriage of Tama and Rahma.

Time seemed to be running slower, one month felt so long for Tama. He had protested that night, initially the wedding plan will be carried out in three months so that the preparation is more mature, but firmly Tama refused.

He did not hesitate to say if it was not too long, two weeks was the time Tama proposed to make preparations. That means he wants the wedding to take place in two weeks. His parents could only shake their heads to hear him.

Obviously, his wish was rejected by his mother, she knew her son had been waiting too long for his happy day but it was precisely for that reason that the Judge wanted to give the unforgettable wedding day memories for his only son.

"You think everything can be conjured up?" Ma'am Hakim again raised the intonation of his voice when Tama swooped with his wishes. But Tama only grinned when her mother's gaze was so intimidating.

On the agreement of two families they finally took the middle ground. After hearing Rahma's request that the marriage be carried out simply, all agreed that the time available would be used for preparation as much as possible. One month later, Rahma and Tama's wedding will be held.

The days that I have been through are getting different. Every morning he was always more eager to go to the office. Tama lives in her parents' residence more often now. Previously, an apartment that was closer to a Jakarta branch office company was where he lived if he was in Jakarta.

A new routine in the morning is really a moodbooster for Tama. He left early, before going to the office he would stop by first to the house of Rahma's sister-in-law to pick up and deliver Athaya to his study.

For one week, Rahma had activities outside the city. He became the representative of the institution where he taught for training. Joseph was ready to take Athaya as long as her brother was not around, but when Rahma told Tama and asked for permission, Tama offered to take her and pick her up. Even during the weekend Athaya invited Tama to stay at the house of his parents and with pleasure the child was willing. Rahma and her brother allowed it.

"No breakfast yet, son?" The Judge who saw Tama hurriedly reprimanded the son,

"No Ma, I don't want to be late. Today I'm going to ask Rahma to find a wedding ring. Last night he had just returned home from Yogya daei" Tama replied after sitting on a chair and enjoying a glass of tea that had been provided by the mother.

"Lho..kok you didn't say, mbak Rahma already know?" tanya Bu Hakim stopped her activity that would take fried rice for her after previously preparing breakfast for her husband. The mbak call is still attached, since the first he did want a daughter and the Judge had planned to call his daughter with the name mbak.

"No Ma, I want to give him a surprise. If told he must refuse" Tama replied lightly, he wiped both corners of his lips with tissue, after one glass of tea was drunk. This afternoon Tama will pick up Rahma and will immediately take her to buy a wedding ring.

"Today, Mama and Mbak Rahma have promised to buy for Nak's handover" Mrs Hakim told her plan today.

"Mama painstakingly invited mbak Rahma finally she was ready. From yesterday-yesterday he always said it was up to mama, do not want to be told to choose themselves" explained Miss Judge with a chuckle, the article first when preparing for Tama's failed marriage, the bride-to-be is so excited when invited to shop for services.

"Why did you laugh to yourself?" Tama felt strange with the laughter of the mother, but,

"That's okay, mama just inget Tasya. He used to be so excited when invited to shop, let alone be told to choose his own goods, but Rahma was different" explained Bu Hakim, he took a spoonful of fried rice to be fed to the mouth of the son, which he said,

"What's Ma?" with a mouth full Tama again asked, curious about the words of his name that he thought was hanging. Tama did not realize if he was being fed breakfast when he had refused on the grounds of hurry, but,

"Mbak Rahma when invited to shop he never wanted to be bought. Time yesterday-yesterday mama invited me to choose the family uniform she only helped choose. Mama told me to choose all for her family uniform, she said it was handled with Maya, mama told me to choose for her own also refused because she said her clothes were still a lot in the closet" clearly the Judge while returning to feed the son.

"Is she really?" tama asked with a happy twinkle in her eyes, a sense of admiration seethed in her heart. He did not choose wrongly, he murmured inwardly.

"Yes, mama until maksa she still politely refused. Mama was so embarrassed when she said that mama likes to shop the most, she just smiled" continued mama still about the story of her future daughter-in-law,

"They're..." Mr. Judge chimed in, one word that made the Judge immediately swerve towards him,

"So if mom's not your dream?" the discussion shifted, Miss Judge did not accept with her husband's comments.

"Eh.ma.mama.idaman papa dong mah" replied the Judge stammered, he just realized if he mispronounced.

"Make papa only mama so dream" Mr. Judge rubbed the cheek of the wife full of affection while rolling one eye. The almost twilight romanticism of the husband and wife remained clear, and Tama could only shake her head to see her mother sulk and again her papa could always easily calm her down.

"Apaan was even friendly" ketus Tama he grabbed a glass filled with water to end his breakfast that had involuntarily almost spent half the plate because the mother was fed.

"Why? envy, say boss" Mr. Judge actually teased his son, he increasingly showed his affection with the wife in front of his son.

"Ah ah I want to pick up Athaya, today she has morning class. Want to practice to prepare for the race he said" Tama got up from his seat, he grabbed his mother's hand and kissed her with reverence. This week he played the role of a father well.

"Pa, I go first" same thing he did to the papa.

"Yes ma, pa. Assalamu'alaikum" said Tama, and answered compactly by both parents.

Less than forty minutes the car driven by Tama has been parked in the yard of Budi's house, until now Rahma and Athaya are still living in his brother's house. Budi and his wife did not allow when Rahma asked for permission to move house and live together with Athaya.

The journey Tama took was smoother as she left even while the sun was still timid to show herself.

"Assalamu'alaikum" Tama was already standing in front of the main door of the house. Beside the house, a cake shop run by his sister-in-law Rahma has shown the activities of several employees.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, Sis..." Joseph opened the door, and last night he went home to his brother.

"You're here?" tanya Tama who already knows if Rahma's youngest sister has lived separately in an apartment provided by the company where she works.

"Yes Kak, last night picked up late" replied Yusuf, last night Rahma came home by train from Yogya and reached the station at about eleven p.m. As usual, Joseph picked her up.

"Lho....Naura's home?" Tama raised the intonation of his voice, he who wanted to sit stopped his movements, stood up again in shock to hear Joseph's answer.

"Yes Brother" answered Joseph briefly,

"Omm handsome .." Not even Tama's surprised face changed, Athaya came from the kitchen. He finished his breakfast, though,

"Hallo boy, how are you ready?" tanya Tama instantly changed her tone of speech. The presence of Athaya was able to change his mood which was surprised because it turned out Rahma had returned without giving him news.

"Today I was ushered by mother omm" Athaya immediately gave notice.

"Mother has come home yes, omm just found out" said Tama, he fixed Athaya's hair that almost covered his eyes.

"Sorry sir, yesterday the show was solidified. Alhamdulillah afternoon is over, so immediately book a ticket" the voice of the woman who some days missed so much finally filled her ears and heart. For a few days apart they only communicate through chat, Rahma refused to take the phone let alone video call.

"Alhamdulillah..." Tama was glued to see a face that looked increasingly shining. A few days of not meeting makes Rahma look pangling.

"How are you, sir?" rahma's questions spread Tama's daydreams, he was his own crime was discovered since just now just focused on staring at Rahma.

"Alhamdulillah good, you? Why didn't you call me?" Tama asked back, a sense of worry and disappointment was seen from the look on his face.

"The plan to go home early was sudden" Rahma replied casually,

Tama no longer answered, she just focused on the face with a smile that has always adorned since.

"Mother, I'd like to grab a colored pencil that's left in the room..." Athaya said goodbye after checking his bag turns out there was something left behind.

"Thank you these few days have been bothered with dropping off Athaya. Though I know Mr. Tama must be very busy" sincere thanks Rahma conveyed, sounding soft while still reviewing a smile.

"Don't you miss me?" Tama ignores Rahma's expression of gratitude, the opportunity Athaya leaves she uses to express her heart.

Rahma was stunned to get that question. He looked at Tama inside without a word.

"You missed me?" the same question but with a different intonation, Tama repeated it again.

"Mother misses me?" not the answer to the question that Tama heard, Rahma asked the same question.

"Of course, I miss you so much" Tama replied steadily without taking her eyes off the white face that immediately flushed to get an unexpected answer Tama would easily say.

"We just a few days did not meet" said Rahma finally voiced out,

"Actually longing is not created by distance but by feeling. I miss you not because you are far away, but because you are already in my heart and soul" Tama said still with a gaze that implied such a deep longing. He looked at the increasingly blushing face.
