Getting Married at Age 16

Getting Married at Age 16
Start moving to small villages



Life must go on even though Alika is grieving now. His move towards the future is long. He must not lament for long his sorrow. The grandmother took him to the place where he lived.


He just wanted to give her a new life. The day after her alika decided to settle down in a small village. The place where the mother was born and raised.


The beautiful scenery was enough to make Alika feel entertained. Once a year, she and her family often visit. But, somehow it feels like the first time I came here.


"Whoa when was the last time I was here? Grandma's house has changed so much for the better." As usual, Alika always shows an enthusiastic face when she sees something that pleases her.


"Before I leave."


Alika nodded her head. Then, go to the special room provided by her grandmother.


The restroom was flanked by two other rooms. There was a love sticker and the bear that was almost peeling was still stuck on the door. Alika touched the stickers while remembering the time where she and alya's sister were sticking to her.


He recalled his memories with Alya. They are jolly girls who always melt the atmosphere wherever the two are, especially alya. Alya is a very strong, kind, and beautiful sister.


He enjoys helping people who are in distress selflessly. Her life is also very lucky because she has been reunited with the man who will marry her next year.


However, hope is dashed when God calls Alya's brother sooner. The lover was also devastated by his departure. The plan that had been neatly arranged was destroyed in an instant.


Without alika realizing her tears were dripping again. There were too many moments with her sister. So, it's hard for Alika to just forget about it.


"Not to be remembered anymore. Better wipe away your tears." For the umpteenth time the grandmother tried to comfort alika.


Alika looked at him with a stupefied look. Losing someone you love is not that easy. Moreover, he had not had time to say sorry and thank his beloved mother.


My grandmother hugged her favorite grandson.


***


Alika has been at her grandmother's house for a week. A beautiful little village full of memories has now become a shelter for long.


Before studying at his new school. She spent a lot of time helping her grandmother work as a housekeeper at the home of a single mother who had a son. But, her son was working in the city. Alika so no need to feel uncomfortable or anxious because of the existence of her employer's child.


"Now what class do you want?" Asked the mother as she was cleaning the guest table. He knows Alika well. Although not all of them know their identity.


"I'm in 3rd grade. Graduated soon." Alika with courtesy and friendly.


"I'm so happy for you. If only I had a daughter-in-law like you." Say with a happy face. He seems to like Alika.


"Mom just lost her husband. But, the son of his one mother has not had time to find her soul mate. His age is almost 30 years. Many women that I introduce. But it ended in failure. My mom is very choosy. That's what makes him so hard to mate." Hearing him tell me a little alika imagine how his figure is.


"Would you not be mother's daughter-in-law?" Suddenly the words came out of his mouth.


Alika widened her eyes. He could not believe what he had just heard.


"Eung. It's okay ma'am. I understand mother's situation." Reply alika.


Then he had permission to clean the kitchen and bathroom.


Just a week of work here Alika can already feel the goodness of bu lyla. He never put anything on her. Only light work does itself. For cooking and other affairs as his he often did it alone. Here, alika's grandmother was also only given the task of sweeping and mopping.


In fact, Ms. Lyla often gives more money to her grandmother who has worked for 20 years. Although, his family was still able to give money to him. But my grandmother did not expect it.


"Son, did Miss Lyla say anything?" Ask her grandmother who just came from the garage.


"Hm.no, just a casual conversation."


"Oiya.. "


"What's the matter, Grandma?" Ask Alika who began to be filled with curiosity.


"Bu lyla is a big deal.. Her husband died recently. He also has not been able to find a soul mate for his only child who is working in the city." The grandmother's words were exactly what alika had heard from bu lyla


"Indeed, how old is my daughter, how old is Grandma?" Ask alika. He pretended not to know.


"Next year will be 30 years." Answer her.


Alika was getting curious about the figure in question. At a fairly mature age that's why mom lyla's son married.


"She's a rather picky child, whereas her mother often introduces women whose age is not far from nak adnan. But, always fail. He always reasoned that nothing fit, be uncomfortable. Though the women introduced by Miss Lyla from the family are all well." His grandmother when she was telling me something must always be serious.


Alika just listened to the story of the grandmother. Don't know what to answer? Because before her she knew it from Miss Lyla.


"But, he did not give up looking for a mate for his son. Before he died he wanted to see his son get married." Continue her grandmother.


"Oiya, grandma. Kasian bu lyla's. It's easy someday his wish will be granted." Alika.


Their conversation ended when her grandmother was called into the middle room by Miss Lyla. Meanwhile, Alika continued her work until it was finished.


The day had begun at noon and from morning alika had not eaten a heavy meal. Just a cup of warm and fried tea that just entered his silvery.


He also took the time to fill his stomach that was rumbling. Coincidentally there is still a side dish used earlier breakfast bu lyla at the table to eat. When you want to scoop fish and tempeh into the plate. Ms. Lyla came while carrying a crackle bag containing her ordered food online.


"Alika, don't eat. This is mom bringing you good food. All of these are the mother's favorite foods. Let's taste it together!"


This kind of attention makes Alika increasingly question many things.
