The next day Naya did not go to work because the shop where she worked was closed or had two days off. Sugeng's mother, the owner of the meatball stall where Naya works, is having a celebration in her house. And as usual Naya went every day to take Fifi to her school. Somehow from riding the motorbike Fifi was silent, did not talk much to Naya as usual who was always crying.
Soon after, Fifi arrived at her school.
"What time's coming home, Fi?" ask Naya because she plans to pick Fifi up later.
"Maybe late, Ma'am. I still have group work." Fifi immediately put up the excuse she had planned from last night.
Naya just nodded in understanding. After that Fifi went into her school, and Naya continued her journey which she planned today she would go to Yuli's house.
Ten minutes later Naya had already arrived at Yuli's house. He was greeted with a reaction by Yuli who was excited to see her coming.
"Ehem! Ciyeee.... Who had been proposed," Yuli's tease to Naya.
The woman knows the news of Gino asking Arif for help to wave Naya from her husband last night. Actually Gino did not tell Budi, but because Budi called him first and asked about Naya to Gino, then finally Gino told about his proposal.
"July, I want to confide," Naya said solemnly. He did not care about the eyes of Yuli who kept teasing him.
"Yes, yeah, what do you want to say, Nay? Mm.... Must be upset again? About Gino's proposal, huh?"
Since Yuli's guess was all right, Naya could only nod her head.
Yuli smiled happily to see him. Then the two women chose a comfortable place to talk to each other, which was while sitting on a carpet in the middle room of the house Yuli. Not to forget Yuli made Naya a fresh drink first, also took Naya a snack. And then put it in front of Naya sitting down.
"In drink first, Nay, let it be good" said Yuli let Naya drink her drink.
Naya drank it a little, then her face came back sad. The woman couldn't sleep well last night. His thoughts continued to be seethed about Gino and Gino. Naya admitted, her heart had not felt anything to Gino. But somehow the insults of Pak Lek Sholeh just keep ringing. Making Naya feel the same way as her parents think, which is a pity if you have to reject Gino's proposal.
But if Naya accepts Gino's proposal just because it's hot with people talking, is this fair to Gino? That's why Naya wanted to confide in this matter with Yuli. Because Yuli indirectly made Naya and Gino know each other.
"I'm confused, Yul. On the other hand I'm not ready to go back to the household, but if I keep being a widow I pity my father." Naya started her confidement.
"What makes you feel unprepared? Is it because you're still not sure about Gino?"
"Eitherway! I don't know what Gino's real attitude is. But--I saw my father's face was happy. It seems they were expecting me to accept the proposal."
Naya said that because just now when she finished the morning prayer accidentally heard the chatter of her parents who expected Naya to accept Gino's proposal.
"Look, Nay, this is just my input. You can agree not to. Why don't you try it first, mm... I mean accept Gino's proposal but don't get married. You can know each other first, but positively you already have an official bond as a fiancee. So even if you are the same she will go out on a date, then it will not be a talk of people because she is already your fiancee. After that, after you know each other and for example do not find a match, you can ask to cancel your fiance," Yuli said seriously.
"Otherwise you said your mother's father was happy anyway? So you can make them happy by accepting it. Yes... Although it is actually only a trial stage," continued Yuli.
"Event stage? Ih, what do you think he's trying to do?" Naya is less sreg with the term trial stage that is pronounced Yuli.
"Yes... Whatever the term is, but I mean you understand, right?"
"Or do I just want to call Gino so you can talk to him directly?" tawar Yulie's. Who knows, Naya wants to talk about this matter with Gino first, before finally making a decision.
"Don't ah, I'm ashamed!" reject Naya directly. Not yet any heartbeat Naya back no koruan. Ah, why the thought of meeting Gino is that his heart often beats strangely.
"Ciye... Why are your cheeks so red? Mm... I know, actually, you like her, don't you?" Unceasingly Yuli continues to tease Naya. Especially after seeing Naya's reaction just now, Yuli was sure that Naya was also thinking of rejecting Gino.
"Like what! I was surprised, Yul, how could he propose to me so soon? Don't you need to know each other first? Does he not know me?"
"Everything rather than curious mending you first accept his proposal. I guarantee a thousand percent you won't regret accepting him. You can cut off my tongue if I say something wrong!" challenge Yuli while also praising Gino for Naya to accept him.
"Trus what about Lala? I don't want him to just be with me, but not with my son" Naya said worriedly.
Yuli patted Naya's shoulder. "That's not to worry, Nay. Gino was used to paying for his two-parent, the son of his half-brother. Especially if to finance your son I think it's a trivial thing for Gino. Gino is loving and not stingy. If there's a, let's go."
"Wait, finance the two pounds you said?" Naya asked curiously.
If true Gino has often helped the cost of two pounds, how much salary as a gardener thought Naya.
Yuli nodded in agreement. He heard the story from Budi before, if Gino often helped the school fees of his two stepbrothers.
"Isn't he just a gardener, Yul? Is it enough of a salary?"
Hearing Naya's question, Yuli laughed out loud. To Naya's astonishment, was there something wrong with the question just now?
"Nay, who said he was a gardener?" Yuli still did not stop laughing.
"He himself spoke yesterday at home."
"Then anyway? Seriously, did he work with you like that?" Yuli's laughter gradually subsided. He looked seriously at Naya.
"Yes. He said the same to me. Ustadz Arif who came as an intermediary also said that he worked as a gardener," said Naya again.
For a moment Yuli thought about the reason Gino had covered up her original profession. Is this the test that Gino deliberately uses to be able to get a truly sincere woman to accept herself for who she is?
"Yuli, how come you're even dumb? Do you know anything I don't know about him?"
"So you why don't I talk about her job? Is that wrong? Or should I lie to him?" continued Naya.
"I don't think about it myself, why he's not being honest about his job." Yuli made a faint sound, but could still be heard by Naya's ears.
"What is his real job, Yul?" asked Naya while looking intently at Yuli.
