"Sister Adam..Oh my God, I didn't see it wrong, did I? Brother Adam is my future husband." The mind of Zahira did not expect.
"Nduk.." call the Father because the daughter is silent.
"Eh, i-iyya sir." Zahira turned to his father.
"You must be surprised, son of Adam who will be your husband." I saw the look on Zahira's face.
Zahira nodded. Adam was still staring at Zahira with a flat face. Meanwhile, Zahira's mother and Adam's father smiled because they could be sure that Zahira would be surprised.
"So how's Nak Hira, are you willing to marry Adam?" This time the one who asked was Adam's father without any further ado.
Zahira saw both her parents. Zahira really doesn't know what to do. Zahira was still shrouded in disbelief, that the man who had always been cold to her was now her future husband. Seeing his parents nodding their heads made Zahira unable to resist.
"Bismillah." Zahira said in her heart with a steady mind.
"Zahira agrees uncle." Zahira answered, looking down between nervousness and embarrassment.
They were all pleased with Zahira's reply.
"Alhamdulillah.." Give thanks to them. Except for Adam who was still silent with an indecipherable look on his face.
"Well, as they both agreed, our next task is to find a suitable date for their marriage." Adam's father said happily.
When they think of a good date for their children's wedding. Adam asks permission to chat with Zahira outside.
***
This is where they are now, sitting on the porch of the house accompanied by a star that scattered quite a lot tonight. The atmosphere was also quite quiet only the sound of crickets screeching.
"What's the reason you're willing to accept this match." Adam's cold voice started the conversation.
Zahira was very nervous to be close to Adam. Just this time this handsome man wanted to talk to her, even though her tone was cold but it didn't matter what he thought.
"K-because I can't refuse their request Brother." Zahira answered trying to master the nervousness within him.
"That's all?" Adam asked dissatisfied with Zahira's reply.
Zahira sighed, why did Adam not believe the answer? Yes, he admitted that Adam must have objected to having been presumptuous to accept this match without asking for first approval on him. But how else, he also could not resist the greatest desire of both parents.
"In that case, how about Adam's own brother?" Zahira ventured to ask despite a slight hesitation.
"Just like you." Adam answered briefly without looking at the girl sitting next to him.
"Emm.. does Brother Adam not regret, after knowing that I will be Sister's wife?" Zahira looked at Adam's face but showed no reaction.
"That's not important, because for me to see the happiness of the parents, it has relieved me." Adam answered flatly with a straight forward look.
Zahira was confused by Adam's words.
"I asked for your Wa number." Adam gives his phone to get Zahira to immediately type his contact number.
"It's Brother." Zahira said while returning the phone to its owner.
"All right, let's go in. Our conversation is over." Adam's tone was still cold.
"Have you finished talking?" Ask Dad when Adam and Zahira sit down.
"It's Dad." Adam answered briefly.
"We've agreed that your marriage, will be held in one month." Said Father.
"Isn't it too soon Dad?" For Adam this was too sudden, they should have asked him and Zahira first.
"Certainly no Adam's son, because something good is inappropriate if it is delayed." Sahut.
"Yes, Adam, we just want to give our daughter the best. Know for yourself, how the views of the people in this village who always talk about Zahira because they are not married. All her friends have children." Says Zahira's mother in a subtle tone chiming in on their conversation.
"You don't have to worry, Dam, all your wedding business will be handled. You just have to take Nak Hira away to buy a wedding ring and also just as much as you can." Saying Father.
"If for the letters we will also help take care of it, so you don't have to bother." Continue Mr.
"You only need to accept it, because your mother's health has not been fully healed." Imbuh Daddy.
Adam took a breath.
"Where are you ready for Nduk?" Mother asked Zahira because her daughter was silent.
"Zahira just come along, Mom." Zahira answered because she didn't know what to say.
"It was done at the house of Nak Adam Nduk, so his mother could see your marriage process directly." Sahut.
Zahira could only nod.
"Alright San, because all the decisions have been agreed. Excuse me for coming home, pity Adam's mother is home alone." Saying Father.
"Wait a minute, the dish please taste again. There's still a lot you haven't eaten." Said Zahira's mother.
"We're full of San, thanks for the dinner tonight. Sorry we got a hassle." Answer, I feel sad.
"No problem San, we're happy." Father with a smile.
"Well, we'll excuse ourselves to go home." Dad got up from his seat. Shaking hands with his iron candidate was also followed by Adam.
Adam extended his hand to Zahira making Zahira's heart quiver coldly as Adam greeted him. Zahira was delighted beyond measure while displaying her sweet smile to the handsome man.
"Assalamu'alaikum." Saying Father.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." Replied they were in unison.
Father, Mother and Zahira drove them out of the house.
