Damar noticed Haikal well, either,
a man who was quite gallant and serious, Damar did not find any gaps.
But there is something excessive about this seriousness.
Damar just doesn't like men who are too confident and grusa grusu.
Understandably, Damar is a person who rarely makes promises but provides more evidence.
And that's what he wants to get from Haikal.
Unfortunately there was no Kinanti here, at least he could see the look in Kinanti's eyes when he looked at Haikal.
Is there really a sense of love there, well, at least Damar found an interest in the eyes of Kinanti.
" How about Kinanti, is she ready to live a domestic life with you?" ask Damar again.
" He was trying to accept me, accept my seriousness..
he said he would give me a chance because of my seriousness." Haikal replied.
Damar was silent, what kind of situation was this, he thought, he gave other men a chance so easily, while to him Kinanti was like closing his eyes and pretending to be stupid.
" Well.if you're committed like that, I can only agree to it.." said Damar could not say anything more, at a glance he saw mother, he said,
there was disappointment in his eyes.
Damar complained inwardly, yet he could not be selfish.
" Let's plan ahead how after marriage, sorry instead of me chattering..
however I have to ask as a replacement for Kinan's brother.."
" It's okay mas. after marriage, my plan to bring Kinan to my house, my house is not too far from here kok mas.." replied Haikal made Damar look at mother for a moment.
" What about my mother?" ask Damar, please,
" If you want to come with us monggo ma'am, I would love to have a mother at home.."
" It's not that you come with us, but you should always be with Kinan, don't try to leave your mother alone after marriage,
or treat the mother excessively after marriage, or,
for example, telling him to take care of your son or daughter after marriage,
of course, the salary is more than enough to find the services of a household assistant.." Damar tone firmly, it makes Haikal stunned for a moment.
mother looked at Damar, and she would say, there is no need to say all that.
" No ma'am, I have to say this at the beginning, so that there are no mistakes later on, of course it's okay Haikal mas?" Damar was really being assertive, it was like shooting Haikal right in the heart.
" Of course we have to talk about something like this, but I haven't discussed anything with Kinan.." Haikal replied in a bit of shock with Damar who was very frank.
" Talk about all, both about salary and other, such as installments or what if there is, I do not want to be surprised after the wedding, I do not want to be surprised,
and one thing. a wife is not obliged to work, if she really wants to work let, but if she does not want to never force it, because more or less the economy, it is not a wife's problem, but if she does not want to never force it, because more or less the economy, it is not a wife's problem, it is not a wife's problem, but completely the husband's problem, it's in my opinion" Damar was really firm, he did not want any situation that would complicate Kinanti later.
" And sorry.not that I interfered, but this is for the convenience of Kinanti, what I said to the njenengan is the worry that all families feel when they decide to let their daughter be betrothed.."
Haikal nodded, indicating that he understood, although his heart began to fidget with Damar's sentence being too forthright.
" Well, I will not advise Kinan to work." replied Haikal, his face suddenly stiffened.
" Do you feel I am overdoing it?" tanya Damar caught the uncomfortable expression of Haikal.
" No. I think it's only natural to talk about it before stepping into marriage.."
" It's good that if you really want to be serious about the household, no one is covered up.." said Damar.
" then you can discuss things with Kinan after this, then,
if your plans are mature, please contact me again..
as a sister I will bear all the needs of Kinanti, so don't worry..
and I also need to meet Haikal's father and mother..
as Kinan's guardian I have to discuss the cost of the wedding..
I'm sorry, I'm the one with the details.."
" mean mas? how ya?"
" many trivial things such as cost, date, and where the event will be held that I have to talk to Haikal's parents.." Damar arrived just chatty, though,
Haikal was silent again hearing that.
" does Haikal mind?"
" Of course not. I'll talk about it later." said Haikal.
" Then I beg you first mas, this was home from work directly here because." said Haikal.
" does? yes already.well.when we talk again, if there is anything you want to talk about please call my number, you can ask Kinanti.." replied Damar.
Haikal nodded, he got up, said goodbye to mother and Damar, then disappeared behind the door.
Before long Damar smiled, he received a glance from the mother who harbored worries.
" I'm sorry ma'am..
I just want to make sure that Kinanti is married to a responsible and not stingy man, the cost is my responsibility..
but it's important for me to make sure Kinanti will live well or not be with Haikal..
before marriage, everything should be clear,
it is not funny that after marriage Kinanti bore a lot of burden." Damar explained to mother.
Seeing her wisdom, mother nodded in understanding,
" Eat first yuk nak. mother cook a lot earlier." said Kinanti's mother,
" Maybe ma'am, I haven't eaten yet." replied Damar.
Beyond estimates, Kinanti returned home after the magrib, after les Haikal immediately confronted him, he invited Kinanti to talk about what Damar had conveyed.
What is clear Haikal a little surprised by Damar, Haikal a little uncomfortable with the sentence Damar about salary, installments, and wedding costs.
Haikal felt it was inappropriate to discuss and leave it to the parents.
But here Haikal forgot, that Damar is a substitute for Kinanti's parents, so it's only natural that Damar said all that at the beginning, only the difference is that Damar does not carry a sense of arrogance, he asked so frankly.
Kinanti who saw the dirt bike that was still parked in front of Tau, that Damar was still in his house.
Damar is seen sitting in the living room, he is busy with his laptop, it seems there is still a little work he completed.
" Yes." said Kinanti,
" Yes" replied Damar short, he did not look at Kinanti at all, his finger remained busy typing.
Seeing that Kinanti continued her path, she went into her room.
" Bath first nduk. after that meal, the mother had eaten first with Damar.." his mother opened the door of his room.
After taking a bath and eating, Damar was still sitting in his living room, the difference now he was not typing.
" Son.kid is not strong sleepy.you just chat with Kinan, the mother sleeps yes.." said the mother to Damar,
" Nggih bu. njenengan rest.." replied Damar, he glanced at his watch, still at half-eight actually, but the condition of the mother was not good, so he was easily tired, and Damar realized it.
After mother entered Kinanti came inside, he busied himself washing dishes so as not to talk with Damar.
But about half an hour later, Damar's voice called out to him,
with heavy steps he came to the guest room to meet Damar.
" We talk on the porch." said Damar.
Kinanti nodded and followed walking behind Damar.
Kinanti sat on one of the chairs, but Damar did not, he stood while turning his back to Kinanti, looking at the well-grown trees in the front yard of Kinanti's house.
Although small, but the Kinanti house is beautiful, unlike the empty Damar yard.
The entertainment is just a view of the rice fields and mountains, well at least there is one in view, Damar thought.
" I've met your candidate.." Damar opened the conversation,
" Yes, yeah.." Answer Kinanti.
Both of them arrived just silent, the atmosphere was silent for quite a long time.
However Damar who felt the situation was awkward, opened the conversation again.
" How are you doing this month..?" asked Damar turned to look at Kinanti, his eyes implying something that Kinanti could not catch.
" I'm good mas.. mas myself?"
" as you can see, I'm fine." replied Damar.
" Well, mas looks very good." replied Kinanti half muttered.
A month did not meet Damar look a little thin, what because his shirt is dark, thought Kinanti, but this is obviously the first time Kinanti found the man in the frame by glasses, he said,
what appeared in Kinanti's eyes was an increasingly charming Damar with his glasses, his firm face a little soft and friendly.
His will swallowed all the unpleasant things, which had been in the view of Kinanti in Damar.
" Do you think I'm that good a month?" asked Damar, his thin smile was flattered, cold impressed.
" What I see in my eyes is fine.." Answer Kinanti shifted her gaze.
" why? has your future husband banned you from looking at other men while talking? so you'd rather stare at the leaves than look at me?"
Kinanti frowned, she was astonished by the word Damar,
Both looked at him for a moment.
" Talk the important thing is mas, not that I have found a prospective husband who I want." said Kinanti.
Damar complained in his heart, for some reason he was so upset.
" Well right, and you're great at finding it fast..
I thought you were going to marry that gym teacher, but you're looking for a more dashing one.."
" I just accept who's serious about me, because I'm not interested in dating, I've wasted a lot of time on pointless things.."
" so who do you think he's gonna be so fast?" damar's voice turned even more cynical.
" I didn't say that, but among the men who approached me, Haikal was the most serious, he didn't ask me out or anything like that, but he immediately asked me to get married"
" O.. So you've been waiting for that line all this time?"
" of course mas, I am a woman, where maybe I invite a man to marry first, even though I have no people, but my self-esteem is still attached to high" said Kinanti.
" And your pride is so high in front of me, even soaring that I can't reach it. But in front of other men you put it down.."
" Nonsense, you want to insult me indirectly huh?
I was very surprised by your behavior mas?!, mas aggressively asked me to get married, but when I found the male instead act like an enemy..?!"
Damar laughed when he heard it,
" How can you find the answer to your astonishment, because you never position yourself as someone else, you only think about your own feelings." commented Damar.
Kinanti was silent, he was very upset.
" why? want to be angry.." said Damar saw Kinanti looking at him with annoyance.
" What did you say to Haikal?" tanya Kinanti arrived.
" Haikal? your future husband's the one who hunted?" Damar made Kinanti even more upset.
" I'm just asking as your guardian, even if I say in front of my mother, about salary, installments, wedding dates and fees,
not funny Kinanti, if you're miserable after marriage..
many men who look luxurious life but the dependents are also many,
don't let you know all the burden after you're married and there's no turning back,
he said he could do it so easily, whereas when I talked about salary and stuff, he looked so unhappy..
marriage is hard to be happy the same, but it's for people who love each other,
you don't even love him, Kinanti, you just act like the one who shakes the arisan,
what came out, that's what you took, that's what you took,
you don't think anything else is behind him.."
" Didn't you tell me to get married?!" Kinanti got up from her seat, she looked at Damar with anger.
" I did it! and now you're telling me the way I got married is like shuffling?!" Kinanti stood before Damar, as challenging, he was tired and tired of the behavior of Damar who was not clear what he wanted.
" at least he's better than you?!
even though I had no feelings of love towards her, yet she boldly invited me to marry!
It's only natural that I give him a chance, and then you want me how?!"
Kinanti's eyes are reddened, glassy.
" You're as good as you are. You're as good as you are! you want to ruin my wedding plans now?! I'm not going to do it, so go!" both of them looked at him, Damar was dumbfounded.
" Go away, I'm tired!" kinanti's tone was lower, she turned around and walked towards the door of the house, but Kinanti felt her body being pulled back into place.
Now the dumbfounded Kinanti,
Damar was already tightly holding his waist.
" We're not done talking." Damar's voice inside.
" Take off the mas? what do neighbors say when they see me like this?!" Kinanti tried to break away, but what happened was that the embrace was getting tighter and their bodies were getting less distant.
" I will be responsible if because of my behavior you get something bad." replied Damar
