Dream Marriage: A Wife Worth Being Loved

Satu

A cold morning in the fog all the way. A woman wearing a navy hijab walks alone in the mist.

There were only a few vehicles passing by on that deserted road. The woman continued walking regardless of the coldness on her body.

Several times he glanced at the clock that was coiled around his wrist. "Nearly eight," his mind fretted. The woman was determined that she should not be late.

his pace was getting faster, even half-run.

With a loud breath he entered the courtyard of Kindergarten where he taught.

"Your sister is having bad luck again?" greet a woman who saw a new friend until, even though the class had started ten minutes ago.

"Sorry, Sister Dian, I'm bad luck again" replied Siti while trying to catch her breath.

"Yes you have rested for a while, Ma'am wait in class," Dini ordered to Siti.

Siti sighed, she felt really embarrassed, because it had been three days in a row that she had arrived late.

***

Siti watched her students running towards the gate to her mother who picked them up.

After making sure all of her students had been invited, Siti returned to her teaching room, tidying up the stack of books on her desk.

"Siti," call Early.

Feeling her name called Siti distracts her, looking at Dini who is sitting next to her.

"Site you know the teaching rules here," said Dini with a worried face.

Siti touched Dini's shoulder, "Don't worry I won't repeat it."

"What made you three days late?" ask Dini curiously.

Siti displayed her timid smile, "That's Mom, the book I ordered has come. I keep reading until I forget the time," said Siti.

"Don't say Wife's playbook again" Dini said with a narrowing of her eyes.

"Hehe Mbak Dini knows," replied Siti embarrassed.

Dini did not stop thinking to her best friend, Siti always looking for a book that helps her become a wife of righteousness, almost all writers who make works about the Wife of Sholehah she has in her home.

"Is there not enough books in your closet?" ask Dini.

Siti shook her head, "Not Ma'am, I'm not satisfied yet."

"May you get married quickly, so that you can achieve your goals," said Dini praying, hoping his best friend get the best match for him.

"God willing Ma'am, tomorrow I will not be misfortune again" said Siti with a smile on her thin lips.

Siti looked at the smile on her best friend Dini's face, noticing Dini's missing body behind the door.

"Tomorrow I must not be sad anymore, if I do not work from where I get money to buy books again, tomorrow I have to come early," said Siti sure.

Siti stared at the neat pile of books, she walked towards the lecture room that looked quiet that afternoon. Carrying his bag and walking towards his house.

***

Siti stared in wonder at the car parked in front of her house, "Who is it?" the question came to Siti's mind.

Siti slowly entered her house, staring at the two strange-looking Men.

"Assalamualaikum," said Siti greeting.

"Valayevansalam ... Here sit na."

Hearing her father's orders Siti sat right next to her father.

"It just so happens that Siti has come home, the arrival of Uncle and Adi here to apply for Siti ... is Siti willing to marry Adi?"

Siti rounded her eyes surprised to hear the words of a man who was the same age as her father.

"Do you not remember, this is Mr. Gunawan Siti, Dad's boss when he used to work in the city," said Siti's father reminded.

Siti tried to remember, but there was not a single memory in her head about this man before her.

"Agus maybe Siti forgot, when you were still working on me it was very small Siti," said Gunawan with a smile on his face.

"Ah yes I forgot," said Siti's father with a shy smile.

Siti was still silent not a single sound, she was still very surprised by Gunawan's speech.

Seeing her silent daughter Siti's father asked, "How Sit, do you want to accept Adi's proposal?"

Siti glanced at the Man who was right in front of her, watching her white-looking face, having thick eyebrows and her firm eyes adding to her good looks.

the feeling of worry enveloped Siti's mind, this was indeed her dream. Soon she could realize her wish.

"Yes Siti's father wants to," said Siti full of confidence.

After saying her sentence Siti glanced at Adi to see her expression, but all Siti could was a sharp look from Adi's eyes. At such a gaze by Adi Siti's heart beats irregularly.

"Is something wrong?" inward Siti, "Wouldn't a man be happy, if his proposal was accepted, but why did Adi look at me like that?" ask Siti in her heart.

There were too many questions in his head, but he tried to ignore and stay focused on his ideals, becoming the Wife of Sholehah.
