Brother-in-law Looked at my Aurat

Will You Marry Me?

Azan Fajr's voice rumbled, waking me up. It still feels at home with the blanket, because the weather this morning is very cold.

Grandma was no longer beside me, it seemed like Grandma had already gone to the kitchen.

Against the cold, I opened the blanket. Take a deep breath, feel the fresh morning air.

Grandma was already busy making coffee and tea when I was about to go to the bathroom.

"Sorry, Fai just woke up, Grandma."

Grandma turned her head, the aged but healthy-looking woman smiled at me, "It's okay, son. After the prayer, drink tea. Grandma has also made a jemblem to fill the stomach early in the morning."

"Yes, Grandma. Grandma's still early already bothered." I felt sorry, moved, and uneasy because Grandma was so considerate.

Out back, in the bathroom there's still people. Whether it's Brother Zian or Mr. Adam who's in the air, I'm standing waiting.

The bathroom door opened, it turned out to be Brother Zian. The more I was fascinated to see it, the wet face was more and more mesmerizing in my eyes.

"Fai, please ...."

"Eh, yes ...." I wave.

Nosil, when I almost crossed paths with Brother Zian, I pretended to slip.

"Oh, ouch, I'm going down!"

Sure enough, Brother Zian spontaneously pulled next to my arm so we stood very close. Because of the imbalance, my two hands are so mischievously coiled around Brother Zian's neck.

"Be careful slippery," he said.

My heart feels peaceful when it is close to my sister-in-law. His face is so sharp. I always wanted to be near him.

I thought after Mas Raka's death, my heart would be hard open to other men, in fact? I who originally hated Brother Zian, now began to grow the seeds of love ....

"Fai .. I want another wudu." I'm the one who's dumbfounded, still haven't taken off my hand grip on Brother Zian's neck.

"Eh, i-iya, Brother ...."

"Bang Zian ...."

I just took off my grip. Train standing while holding. He was like a ghost, suddenly coming to disturb my happiness.

"Yes, Rat, what's wrong?" sahut Brother Zian.

"I want to ask for help after Bang Zian finished praying. Regulator stove gasku error, help the real ya."

"Yes, I want to pray first."

"okay, Bang. Thanks before. My brother is always nice to me." Ratih's smile expands. He seemed to have deliberately said that phrase in order for me to be jealous.

Train then walked towards his kitchen.

"Oh, so this brother is always there to help Ratih?" tanyaku insinuates Brother Zian.

"People shouldn't help each other, Fai?"

"Yes, Brother. But if you ask for help from Brother Zian too often, it's to get his name." My heart is jealous to think that Brother Zian has helped Ratih before.

"I'm just helping, Fai. Practice attention or not, yes I don't know. I want wudu first yeah, yeah." She smiled and went back to the bathroom to leave.

"Oh, sebel! Train's gotta be looking for attention, huh!" I grumbled after Brother Zian entered the bathroom.

❤❤❤

I prayed in Grandma's room, Brother Zian and Mr. Adam prayed in the musala.

Afterwards, I helped Grandma in the kitchen. This morning Grandma is gonna make kale stir-fry. I helped slice her hoe.

"The hives are over, son?"

"Alhamdulillah, Mother. It's not itchy anymore. Thank you, the oil works." I'm so grateful to have found a cure for my illness at Brother Zian's house. Luckily I followed Naya's advice to come here.

"Thank God, he will come home with a lot of oil. Let's really recover."

"Well, thank you, Grandma."

Brother Zian has come from the musala, I feel heavy to see the manly man walking towards the kitchen of Ratih.

Long enough Brother Zian there, I see from the kitchen window, Brother Zian has not come out yet.

"Wait for Zian, huh, son?" asked Grandma as if she understood my anxiety.

"Hmm, Brother Zian is used to helping Ratih huh, Grandma? Do Zian and Ratih have a relationship?"

Grandma laughed, her teeth were still complete reddish because they used to chew chalk, betel, betel nut, and gambier.

"Grandmothers don't know the affairs of young people. But, Mr. Ratih once said he would love to have a son-in-law like Zian."

The danger! Ratih will be my toughest rival. I have to move fast, not Brother Zian to be with Ratih.

"Eating this morning will be better, because the kale is sliced directly by chef Faizara."

Brother Zian is humorous as well, he's starting to joke.

I shrugged, "Yes, dong. Who says only Ratih cooks?"

Brother Zian laughed, as if comforted to see me sewot out of jealousy.

"Ready, Chef! I'll wait for the cooking." Brother Zian wear respect all make Grandma laugh.

❤❤❤

"Lumayan sauteed her kale, the roof was soaking and the kale felt kale," said Kak Zian after tasting my homemade kale stir fry.

"Because ... Brother's mocked my cooking, huh?" Two of my cheeks are swollen.

"Don't sulk, dong, Fai .. Your cooking is delicious, seriously delicious, you know. Isn't that right, Grandma?"

"Yes, delicious," said Grandma.

I smiled too. Happy to eat together before going home. Original, I don't want to go home yet, but embarrassed to stay again for no apparent reason.

As a thank you, before I go home, I'll buy Grandma some groceries. I saw the store not far from here, Grandma said no need, but I still went on foot alone, later after finishing let Mr. Adam who lifted my groceries.

As I was about to reach the store, I was shocked to hear the conversation of two young men in front of the shop, they happened to be sitting behind me.

"Now the pocong is paid" said the man wearing the white T-shirt.

"So how's the pocong?" ask friend.

"So pocong, nakutin new people. Dapet, get paid. That's why I'm buying you a lot of snacks." The young man laughed.

"Who's paying?" His friend asked again.

"There, deh ... Beautiful little girl with a dimple."

My heart immediately rumbled. Train me! So he's the one who deliberately told people to scare me?

I'm throttling. The two young men turned their heads and the one in white clothes jumped up in shock like meeting a ghost. He pulled his friend's shirt, his friend asked him what was going on. He did not answer yet, the young man in white clothes ran off on the roast because of the kupelototti.

Okay, Ratih beat the war drums on me, I'm gonna make him bite his finger. Just look!

After the groceries, Brother Zian followed me to the stall, Mr. Adam also helped to admire the groceries.

"Fai, why bother buying some groceries?" Brother Zian asked after putting the pot in the kitchen.

"It's okay, brother. I thank you for Brother and Grandma for receiving me so well. Also, my hives have gone dry." I embrace Grandma. Very dear to him.

"Yes, you're welcome, son." Grandma hugged me.

Before I go home, I have to have a serious talk with Brother Zian.

" Oh, yes, brother, I want to have a serious talk."

Brother Zian nodded. "Can."

Grandma and Mr. Adam understanding, let me and Brother Zian talk in the living room.

"Sir Zian seriously wants to be with me?"

"Why ask that, Fai? If I, ever since Raka died, really wish you would marry me. But, you chose Reno. Now, if you and Reno are not in a relationship anymore, I still wish I could marry you. I should have asked, will you marry me?"

I open my mouth, and then shut my mouth. Speechless heard Brother Zian's words. From the look in his eyes, there was earnestness there.

I nodded repeatedly. "You, Brother. I won't reject Brother Zian again, there's no reason for me to reject a man as good as Brother."

I'm afraid first Train. So, I answered honestly. So that Brother Zian does not hesitate, and is not disappointed.

Brother Zian smiled, so sweet. "Alhamdulillah ... I'll come to your house, Fai. I'll propose to you."

Steady speech Brother Zian made us both smile happily and the taste of haru. Our eyes are compact glazed.

"So soon, Brother." Tears on both my cheeks. Remember with Mas Raka. In the past, he said all that when he would accept me as his wife.

"Yes, God willingly ...." Brother Zian's voice shakes haru. She wiped the tears at the two corners of her eyes.

"Yes, guide me yes, brother, so that I will be a good wife and pious. I realized, all this time so selfish, so emotional and my other shortcomings so much." My tears are getting bigger.

"Name, Fai. I also have a lot of shortcomings. If we are married, we will complement each other so that our marriage is always blessed."

I was moved, happy, and did not expect to be proposed by Brother Zian soon.

"May hug, no?" I spread my hands. Brother Zian shook his head funny.

"It's not halal, Ma'am. If you are married." Adam came out the front door and made us laugh.
