FRIENDSHIPS 2

Episode 2

Problems can be faced if every couple can establish good communication.

Listen to each other and keep trying to understand each other and accept each other.

The day of application has arrived. That morning I was built with my grandmother who was already here for a proposal event. I was built at seven in the morning. My house at that hour was really hectic. My family has prepared the things that will be brought later. Understandably, this is the first application event in my family. So yes, know yourself why this serepot.

“Ditt, let's get up, take a shower there,” said Grandma when I haven't really woken up.

“Kan, it's still seven o'clock, Nek,” I said lazily. Usually, if there is no morning work, at this hour I am still sleeping.

“Lho, can't do that, do want nyamperin chick. This you have to be serious you know, not your friend anymore, this has become a future wife,” said Grandma who finally managed to make me wake up.

Yes, today is the day of the proposal! Where can I wake up normally.

I finally got up and took a shower. Anyway, I immediately get ready to go to Ayu's house.

Actually on the night before this proposal day, I thought, why not from the first I deketin Ayu, huh? But yeah, I'm the same he used to be just a friend, anyway. Who used to always think that after all, a mate, certainly not to where.

Last night I thought, Is it time for me to get married, huh? But, I was reminded again with the ideals of the school age. I really wanted a young marriage and it turned out thank God that God allowed me one step closer to marriage.

Well, a lot of the same questions I had last night. Promiscuous. It's a little hard to sleep. But in the end, I just pray, hopefully Ayu is the right choice for me—and vice versa.

I don't know what Ayu thought at the time. Is he the same as me? Does he think too much of me? Is he really sure of me?

When our family was ready, Grandma said, “Come, all-nya lest anyone miss.” Grandma is always a reminder to everyone so that no one is left behind. Not only was Grandma really excited, one of her rumah rempong asked for forgiveness.

Nyokap also talked and uttered a sentence that made all did not dare to argue, “If for example a proposal was messy, later the marriage was also messy.”

Almost all of my extended family members were in, our car convoy headed for Ayu's house. Before leaving, my family prayed that all the events today could be smooth. My grandmother said, “Ditt, good luck yes, everything.”

I also agreed to his prayer and all the advice that was said to be the same grandmother. After everything was ready and made sure that Ayu was in the car, we left. The ones leaving today are my big family, om-om I'm all coming along. You could say, I am the first ‘’ in this family. So, you can be sure almost all members of my extended family follow, leaving the rame-rame to Ayu's house.

If you look around, maybe one street is my family car, hahaha. Well, just after the road, nyokap check back as soon as possible for Ayu, making sure that all really have entered the car.

Keep talking all of a sudden say, “Lha, this is as good as anything less, huh? Which bedsheet is it where?”

“Neighborhood.”

“Eh, stop, stop.”

Suddenly everyone panicked. Looking where it's the sheets, in which car. It's true to miss, hahaha. Finally our convoy stopped, all the cars backed off again, but because the convoy was very long it was finally decided that one of my Om who returned home to take the leave behind.

Pity must also ask for help Om I who took the cuddle that missed it. But our convoy really could not return home because the road conditions were not supportive. One stop, all stop. One step back to take the items that are left behind, yes everyone must follow back.

After the missed call was finally taken, we immediately continued on our way again. Seselah has been secured by my Om earlier. But, the incident of nyebelin not only stopped at ‘seselahan lalu’, there are still other events. Suddenly our group had to stop because my car was stuck on the crossbar of the complex. We can only pass after getting help from the surrounding residents, the crossbar that made my car stuck can finally be overcome.

Anyway, if you remember again, the events before the proposal are very exciting, it cannot be avoided, hahaha.

Along the way, my parents give advice typical parents who want to nganterin their children to menglamar people's children.

Bokap I said, “Marry that friend is not that relaxed. At this time Ayu is no longer just your playmate, but the child of the person you want to apply for. Want to be your future wife.”

At that time, I accepted all of my parents' advice. And no doubt, we finally arrived at Ayu's house. At that time that is on my mind, whatever will happen inside, I must be ready to talk in front of the Ayu family. Time is just brave in front of Ayu doang, anyway?

At that time, one of the omnya Ayu who first welcomed my family. Here anyway I ask permission, come with the purpose of wanting to sleep with Ayu. Ayu family is very kidding me.

“Yes, want to nyamperin my friend, Mom. Where are you, Mom?” When I came, Ayu did not come directly with her family. At that time Ayu ‘diumpetin’ with her brother in the upper room. So on my seduction, said his Ayu does not exist.

Not long after, Ayu finally came out of the room. After seeing him, I had a thought, ‘Yes Allah, I finally got Ayu, huh? I want to bedazzle my own friend’.

Representatives of Ayu's family began to introduce her family. Well, whose name is temenan, I'm the same Ayu even joked until reprimanded parents. Not that joking, anyway. More to our body gestures that talk. For example interlocking lyrics or talking but without sound. And then we giggled. Sableng base, hahaha.

“Hush, this is serious, you know. You guys were kidding from earlier.” The rebuke came from both of our parents.

But still the basic emang jawak, say how many times we can at least just be quiet for a moment, keep laughing again.

Until then it was my turn to talk. A little groggy, anyway. I've known Ayu for years, his family too. But now, different. How, huh? I want to talk in front of her and my family. I want ‘request’ Ayu to be my life companion later in front of all our families.

Finally, it was my turn to talk. “Halo, I'm Ditto. I came here with my big family. I want to say something, that today I want to propose to Ayudia officially. She's my best friend who will be my wife later.”

Abis I said that, Ayu just laugh ngakak. Yailah, this is the child. I thought I was joking around, huh?

“Yu, I want to say...”.

“Cieee.”

“I want to propose to you in front of all these people, in front of all our family members,” I said while trying to make my groggy taste.

“Iya, Mas, I want,” Ayu replied timidly. Although from earlier joking, it turns out he can also be shy, hahaha.

Actually a lot of it, which I remember the night before the proposal. Deg-degan really, happy, and finally so can not sleep. Because I keep thinking, ‘Oh, this is yes, the day?’ or ‘It's really not yes, tomorrow there is a proposal?’.

I myself ... in recent years his work is like a malu mulu, because heartbreak continues. Every time something happens, suddenly the family does not agree. Or for example I've started to love other guys, uh, the guy is not serious. Anyway, the incident is not just once and in the end makes me lazy to start a new relationship and cause prolonged upset.

So that night I felt really happy, kept thinking, ‘What yes, yes? Tomorrow, there really is, huh?’.

Crazy, only a few hours left I will be proposed in front of my family, the same Ditto who has been my playmate since Junior High until now we have both worked together.

At the moment of application, it feels like ‘Oh, finally, nih’. That is, it's like the moment I want ‘locked’. That's it, the big family is all, my friends are also on the go.

Maybe many do not believe that I ended up being proposed to my own best friend and preceded my other friends. Even in my gang, I'm famous as a broken heart, but a handyman falls in love too. That's why they often say, ‘Allah, most lo same guy A, guy B, guy C’. Anyway, they all have no idea who I will end up with.

Well, right after Ditto applied, all my friends are speechless. “Crazy, finally you first, you know,” said my friends at that time.

I just didn't think it could be the same Ditto got this far, let alone them, right?

Though I'm the most childish person among our gang members, never mind directly married. And all of a sudden it's dilamar—it's the term broke an egg first between one gang. Before the event, a lot of things were thought out for sure. Because I'm actually a bit of an OCD, so I'm a little worried. Duh, this show went well, huh? Well, how, huh?

A lot of things I was thinking about in the upper room, when the Ditto family just came to my house. Fear suddenly there is less or something wrong when the application process runs. But, thank God, things ended up going well too. Even the proposal, we tuh, more giggling that. Joking mulu. I got to diomelin with my parents. What makes a lot of people gemes is the moment to put the ring, we still keep joking and laughing.

My dad told me to Ditto, “Serius, To, seriously.”

But still, for us it is very difficult to be so serious. Finally until everyone seemed to have begun to resign and tired remind us who laugh mutely. I don't know anymore why our lives both fall like jokes, hahaha.

Two families finally shared our wedding date. We have two options, between September 13 and January 11. But since January 11 was on Monday, it finally agreed on September 13, which is four months from now. From the time of application.

In four months, I'm getting married to Ditto. Did all the preparations go well, huh? Because even though we were victorious, but this we want to marry, you know. And the marriage business is not just between me and Ditto doang. There's a family we both also—and getting married is definitely not a trivial thing for our family.
