Earth Love Qibla

22

After being successfully exposed to the Earth trap and being content to vent by beating the Sea the three people took turns washing their hands in the sink faucet.

"Crazy Lo Bumi, Lo's brain is so dirty!" ogat Damar while splashing his hands that are still wet to the face of the Earth.

"Kak Damar tuh likes to prank people turn in reply koq annoyed anyway?" The earth rubbed its face that was splashed.

"Why is this lhoo standing here? noisier yet?" ask Ayas who is still wearing a mukena. The earth approached Ayas and immediately swung on the arm of the Mother.

"We're playing guesswork, Mam."

"Like these little kids!"

"Whisper, Tan?" asked Damar with a grin.

"How come you're never noisy, anyway?" sindir Ayas's.

"It's Damar koq who makes a fuss Mam," Ayesha spoke. Feeling bad about his future father-in-law.

Suddenly Ayas recalled something as he glanced at Ayesha. She remembers the night the Sea accompanied by Bumi talking to Ayas wanting to propose to Ayesha and marry her soon.

"Your sister told you not to propose to Ayesha yet?" Ayas whispered to his daughter.

"I guess not yet, see Kak Ayesha's hand is still plain. Not yet wearing a bracelet," Earth pointed at Ayesha's wrist with her chin.

Ayas cleared his throat, and immediately established his standing position.

"Ayesha, there's actually an important thing you want to talk about. Can we gather in the living room?"

Ayesha's a little surprised? Is there any mistake he made. He looked at Earth looking for answers through the eyes of Earth. However, the Earth is only banging on the shoulder as a sign of not knowing.

"Kneel!" Ayas walks first with the Earth still in his arms. The others followed him from behind. The sea who knew what the Mama was going to talk about went to her room and took the gold bracelet that was going to be given to Ayesha. He soon returned and joined.

After having gathered enough courage. The sea began to open talks. His heart beats unbecoming. He only spoke in front of his family and friends. Not in front of Ayesha's family.

"Mam, let the sea do the talking."

With a bracelet in his hand, the Sea let out a long sigh. Before he began to say, He muttered to read the basmallah.

"Sha, will you marry me?"

Only four words, five if Ayesha's name is counted. But, making Ayesha who was sitting face to face with the Sea flabbergasted in shock. His body felt electrocuted with a heart that shook violently. Her tears are growing at the end of her eyes. His lips trembled, wanting to say but stuck in his throat. A heavy nod. Only a nod could Ayesha give in response.

"That means you want to?" tanya Sea confirmed what she saw.

Instead of answering, Ayesha nodded back and escaped the tears falling from her place. The sea was happy, He raised his hand and looked at the ceiling of his house. After saying Hamdallah, he put his hands to his face.

All who saw felt bewitched by the interaction of the two human children who were drunk with love. Lila imagine if she was in the position of Ayesha would feel very happy.

"Here baby, hug Mama!" Ayas spread her arms waiting for Ayesha to hold her. Ayesha immediately approached the future-in-law and shed a happy cry on the chest of the ever meek middle-aged woman.

"Thank you for accepting the Sea, may you complement each other."

Ayas rubbed Ayesha's head with a slow motion making Ayesha feel very loved.

"I don't know what to say. But, I also want to say thank you Mama has been willing to accept Me," Ayesha hugged him. Elusan Ayas now moved onto the back of the long-haired girl.

"Sister, I'm gonna hug you too!" The earth hugged them both.

A few seconds until it feels enough to spill each other's feelings of each of them unravel the happy embrace.

"Ayesha, congratulations. Soon officially become the mistress of Bramasta Laut," said Lila spread her arms and greeted by Ayesha with a big smile.

"Thank you, I pray for you and Damar to follow soon."

"Aamiin's."

Now it's the turn of the Sea that has survived Akash and Damar.

"Pick lamar Lila, do not continue to cultivate sin. Poor people's children are not given certainty." Sea Ledek on Damar.

"Yes Lo, lose fast with the Sea. You guys have been dating since first grade High School, right?" Akash is pumping.

The women just laughed at seeing Damar being cornered.

"Aah Lo is also the same right, children are not given clarity status? when did you go to bed for him?" Damar doesn't want to lose to Akash.

"Next month" Ayas said, representing Akash's answer.

"Front month?" Everything compact asked.

"Yes next month the Ummi family will officially propose to Rere." Ayas clarified his sentence.

Be ill. That is what the heart of the earth feels.

"Where do you know?" The sea forgot that the bracelet He had prepared had not been given to Ayesha.

"Mama found out from Ummi during the study last week. It was also while meeting Zahra and her husband at the store that they told Mama."

Just then Earth felt its body shiver. After some time made lulled by the treatment and statement of feelings from Akash. Today the Earth seems to realize something. That his feelings for Akash are not important. The love that He nurtured from the beginning should not be allowed to flourish.

The earth was stunned, folding its trembling lips. His hands were squeezing each other. The rumbling in his chest was proof that his heart was not fine.

The sea growled, He handed the bracelet in his hand to Ayesha without saying anything.

"Why did Lo stay still and even make the Earth harder away from Lo?"

Brugh

One punch on Akash's face drifted. Akash did not fight, his heart was broken. Akash is not honest with the Earth. He was so sure he could cancel this marriage.

"Sea, don't beat Akash. We can talk good!" Ayas held back the hand of the returning Sea to strike Akash.

"Sorry," Akash said in a raucous voice.

"You better go home, Kash. We can discuss this tomorrow. Mama has also been guilty of this," Ayash who was still holding the hand of the Sea said softly.

Akash just nodded. Everyone in the room was eager to see the Earth that was still with its state struck. At first glance Akash glanced at the woman he loved then immediately passed to the upper room to change his pants and take his belongings .

Ayas immediately sat back beside the Earth, hugging her shoulders from the side. Soon Akash was down and ready to go home.

"Sorry, Earth."

"Mam, I shouldn't have harbored this feeling. Is it my fault that God shakes my heart to love her?"

"There's nothing wrong, son. Leave it all to God" Ayas tried to smile so that the tears of the Earth would not fall.

"Earth wants to sleep with Mama" Earth immediately went to her mother's room without waiting for an answer. He just wanted to shed his tears.

"Sea, take Ayesha home." Ayas said then immediately following the steps of the Earth.

The sea with still overflowing anger sat down next to Ayesha who was still clutching the bracelet. Ayesha was confused as to what to say. His happiness came along with disappointment in the hearts of the Earth.

"Sorry, Sha. Our moment is broken."

"It's okay, I'm just worried about the Earth."

"What is the relationship between Earth and Akash?" ask Damar who is still confused why it is so complicated like this.

Finally so that there is no misunderstanding the Sea tells what really happened. Until finally the three men tersebuy mangosteen sign understand.

"For the first time I feel luckier than Akash. Even though work is just being awkward in Rere's office but at least about love I can get the girl I love." Damar. If only the atmosphere was not cold like this it was certain they would laugh hearing it.

"What does this bracelet mean?" ayesha asked when she was sure of the stable condition of the Sea.

"Oh yes, until you forget, this as a sign of the bond between you and me." The sea took out a white gold bracelet with a love-shaped ornament sprinkled with jewels on its side.

"On the inside here is our name" said the Sea, wearing the bracelet to Ayesha.

"Why should a bracelet?"

"Because if I will wear the ring shortly after Ijab kabul and say the word SAH from the head," replied Akash, gently rubbing the back of Ayesha's hand.

"I also want to be proposed like that" cried Lila tugging at the end of the shirt worn by Damar.

"Please, my money is not enough. I'll save up first" Damar tries to persuade Lila.

"Don't be given false hope, La. Just leave him. You guys are dating for almost nine years. Is that a courtship or a housing prick?" ledek Sea.

"Broast Lo, the mentang-petang has become an accomplice to Boss Rere. Your salary is three times higher than mine. It is only natural that you are able to marry people's children," Damar defended himself.

"Applying to women is not about salary, but about seriousness!" lila felt like she was not being fought.

"Ok, give me time. Later I told Enyak Babe to sell rice fields to propose to Neng Lila dear."

Damar spoke with his female accent, the atmosphere became a little warm.

"Nah gitu dong, Babe sama Enyak kan besides landlords also hired loan officers. Lila said, it's not about how much you pay. It's about seriousness and commitment!" The sea is warming.

"Eet was a boy who was getting hotter. Patience say, Gua kudu talking first with Enyak Babe."

"Everything Shake, Encing, Engkong Lo Tong talk to you." Meltedek sea.

The atmosphere is always exciting when playing to the house of Damar who has real betawi blood. The whole family is friendly even though their style of speech is like taking a storm. Lila was also well received in the Damar family. It was just that Damar was still feeling doubtful.

"Udah ah, I want to go back. You are indeed difficult to take seriously," Lila finally sulked. Without saying goodbye, he left the room. Damar immediately chased his lover. Involved in a short squabble but not Damar his name if he can not quickly regain the heart of his idol. Finally they came home with Lila who was smiling again.

"They are just there. It's a pity that later married for sure even though the two of them live also the condition of the house is always crowded," Ayesa shook her head laughing.

"When what are we?" tanya Laut stared intensely at the bead of the future wife.

"Bucin any moment anyway if we are," replied Ayesha smiling shyly.

After chatting some things Ayesha was driven home by the Sea without saying goodbye to Ayas. The ocean thinks it's better not to disturb the Earth for now.

Meanwhile, in Ayas' room, Bumi was able to stop her crying even though it was still as much as she could.

"Earth may cry, but then smile. Rest assured, what God has destined for us will not be missed. Pray and ask Allah" said Ayas stroking the head of the Earth, which still lay his face on the bed.

The earth turned its body, moving its head to the lap of Ayas who was sitting cross-legged beside it.

"May the Earth pray to be betrothed to Brother Akash?"

Ayas smiled bitterly and did not immediately answer whether or not.

"The heart of every human being has a partner, to whatever extent they are separated if indeed God's soul mate will certainly unite it."

"So may the earth ask Kak Akash to be the soul mate of the Earth?" The earth repeated the question.

"Begging and pleading with Allah, leave it to Allah."

The earth no longer spoke, He chose to close his eyes.

Flash back in store

Ayas, who was walking out of the store, accidentally crosses paths with Zahra and Ilham, her husband. They chat until finally Zahra and Ilham invite Ayas to stop by for a while at the cafe next to the store to discuss some things.

After the drinks were served, Zahra began to open the conversation.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I just got to the core of the conversation. I don't like it if Akash and Earth get too close. Akash is getting married soon. Maybe next month we'll propose to Rere and then the wedding will be done as soon as possible."

Zahra tried not to offend Ayas.

"I also know Mom, today they're both gone right?" tanya Ilham, there was a bit of a haughty tone to her sentence.

"I'm sorry Zha, I just think they both love each other like sister and sister. I don't think that far."

"I also initially thought so, but after some time Bang Ilham's men investigated it turned out They were harboring feelings for each other."

"I beg you, ma'am, warn the Earth to come from Akash." The inspiration speaks very softly but is full of threats.

"I'm sure Bu Ayas is wiser and gives Earth direction. I believe in Ms. Ayas" Zahra rubbed the back of Ayas' hand. A little quiet after the threatening words of her husband were heard by Ayas.

****

For the umpteenth time Ayas felt he could not give the Earth what it wanted. There was a pain that so pierced his soul as he watched his daughter have to be heartbroken many times.

It was enough. When he was a child he abandoned his Papa. For thirteen years of living apart from him. When he grows up and begins to know love, he anchors the heart to someone who certainly cannot accept it.

Ayas moved the head of the Earth on a stacked pillow. The girl fell asleep with her disappointment. The kiss is still left. Tears that run down the cheeks are a sign of how much crying has been spilled.
