God's Choice of Mate

Preparation

Day by day slowly.

All the preparations for the wedding reception of my sister Reno and I are almost done.

The same with the management of my wedding documents and Brother Reno.

After passing all procedures and verified from the religious court as well as the office of religious affairs.

So my marriage has obtained legal certainty that is proof of marriage in the form of a marriage certificate that is needed for every married couple as authentic evidence and legal documents.

"Alhamdulillah from now on the marriage of Reno and Rani has recorded the legality of her legal identity so that it becomes a legal married couple and is recognized by the state through the provision of marriage books and population documents after the marriage Isbat procession,"said Ms. Sri gratefully.

Mr. Gukul came to the house with all the other mail confirmation documents.

Everyone was so happy to receive this happy news.

"Alright now we focus on the celebration of Reno and Rani's wedding party, mah, pah" said Ms Riska.

"Yes son," replied Bu Sri smiling happily.

"Oh.ya mah later in the afternoon fittings both Reno and Rani bridal clothes. This is Riska already in contact with her friend mama who designs Reno and Rani clothes," explained Mbak Riska to Bu Sri.

"Oh..good dong.Then later Riska told Rani and Reno to get ready after ba'da ashar we immediately run to the boutique yes.Now mama rest a little yes Ris.Mama is a bit tired,"said Bu Sri rubbed the head of Mbak Riska slowly.

"Yes mah," he nodded.

Bu Sri walked towards their home elevator to rest in her room.

While Mbak Riska was looking for me and Reno to inform her about the preparation of wedding dress fittings.

 

Sorenya in the boutique, accompanied by Mbak Riska and Bu Sri as usual.

Brother Reno and I did our last quick wedding dress.

It turns out that the wedding dress that I chose is more to the modern minimalist concept.

The design of the nude pink satin dress looks shiny with the addition of a little sequin in some parts of the dress.

But I had a little trouble wearing high heels because I was not used to wearing them.

It felt like my body was out of balance wanting to fall plus wearing a wide and large dress on the bottom covered my entire toe.

How will I step, I said in my heart with confusion and worry if I fell.

Oh God, I can't imagine how it will be.

Ughhhhhh....

I'm concerned.

"Ran, her wedding high heels mbak choose chunky heels made of pink satin, which will exude the charm of the Barbie tub on Rani when wearing it. Details beads and transparent lace on sling back heels also looks fashionable for Rani," said Mbak Riska passion explained to me while helping me wear high heels.

"MasyaAllah Rani you look beautiful and charming when not yet in make up (self)," praised Mbak Riska looking at me smiling.

Hearing Ma'am Riska praising me I also smiled shyly and immediately read the do'a when praised someone so that I do not fall asleep and avoid the disease 'ain (is a disease of both body and soul caused by the eyes of a spiteful or amazed person. So that it is used by demons and can pose a danger to the affected person).

"Bismilahbornrahmanirrahim."

"Allahumma la tu akhizni bima yaqulun waghfirli ma la ya'lamun waj'alni khoiran mimma yadzunnun."

"That is to say: In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Merciful."

" O Allah, do not punish me for the praise he has given me, forgive me for their lack of knowledge. And make me better than the judgment they gave me."

"Aamiin ya rabbal'alamiin (give me god, grant it)."

"Now Rani tries to stand up and walk slowly, and Rani will feel comfortable or not" said Mbak Riska while helping me stand.

I reach for the hands of Ms. Riska so that my body can stand.It feels complicated and difficult for me because I have never worn a dress and high heels like this before.

Slowly I can stand though still unstable until when trying to walk my body is not balanced and.....

Wwwwww.....

My body will fall....

Hupph....

I feel resigned when Mbak Riska is not able to reach me.

Closed eyes.

I fell but why did it not hurt, my inner self.

Out of curiosity, I opened my eyes slowly.

And how surprised I was when I saw Brother Reno.

Our faces met so close.

Both of his hands held my body with his feet.

"Are you okay, Ran?" he asked worriedly.

I nodded slowly.

"Thank God if you're okay" he said happily.

Ckrrrkkkk....

Me and Sister Reno looking around turned out Miss Riska took a picture of us.

"Yeaayyy..dapet.Moment of this step is mandatory in perennial," said Ms Riska while looking at her mobile phone.

Brother Reno helped me stand up slowly and clasped my hands that were still open with the high heels I was wearing.

"Mbak Riska instead of helping even a photo," said Kak Reno glanced at Mbak Riska.

"There is already Reno.So you don't need to help right.Your power has greater strength.And I think you alone are enough to help Rani.

Later even bother again.Hehehehe.

Brother Reno only shakes his head to see the behavior of Ms. Riska.

While I still make my body comfortable with the dress and high heels I wear.

"Ran, I'm not helping you walk slowly, yes" Reno said.

"Ehhhhh..bentar you two stand up dong mbak want the same photo you were for a while.Mah, please take a photo, yes," said Mbak Riska while giving her mobile phone to Bu Sri.

Quickly lightning Mbak Riska immediately stood between me and Brother Reno while holding our hands together.

Seeing her behavior Bu Sri just smiled while shaking her head.

Not long after that, Bu Sri also changed to ask for photos with me and Brother Reno.

"God willing, both of your children look harmonious.One looks handsome and the other looks beautiful.You will both fascinate everyone," said Bu Sri while holding my cheek and Brother Reno lovingly.

"Allahumma anta a’lamu minni bi nafsiy, wa anaa a’lamu bi nafsii minhum. Allahummaj ‘alniy khoirom mimmaa yazhunnuun, wagh-firliy maa laa ya’lamu wa laa tu-akhidzniy bimaa yaquuluun."

"That is to say: O God, You know more of myself than myself and I know better of myself than those who praise me. O Allah, make me better than they think, forgive me for what they do not know of me, and do not torment me with their words" said Brother Reno to hear Sri said so.

"Aamiin ya robbal alamiin (give me my god, grant it)," I said.

"You read do'a what son?" asked Bu Sri curiously.

"Oh.this is mah, read the do'a when praised by others or when others praise us to avoid liver disease," replied Brother Reno while helping me sit in a chair.

"Mama just knew son.Not if praised it means we are liked by others right.Like mama praised Reno and Rani because mama loves you and there is no bad intention on her son,"opinion of Bu Sri while sitting next to me.

"Yes mah, so that we who get praise are not complacent because of being praised.And keep away from the nature of ujub or arrogant. By reading this do'a we realize that we are no better than others. For indeed all that deserves praise is Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala (Holy and Most High)," explained Kak Reno as he removed the ribbon-shaped tie on the collar of his shirt.

"Ohhhh..so yes son.Means, when praised by others we should read prayers when praised and multiply the istighfar," he asked seriously.

"God is absolutely right, Mah" replied Brother Reno with a smile.

"Hmmm...about how comfortable the clothes are not after you fittings?,"Bu Sri asked the two of us.

Me and Brother Reno looked at each other.

"Reno is comfortable, Mah.If Rani how?," asked Reno to look at me.

"Rani's still not used to it. It's kind of weird to wear it," I said innocently.

"It's okay son, later at home let Mbak Riska help Rani yes.Especially wear high heels yes son," said Bu Sri smiling while holding my chin.

"Yes Ris," said Bu Sri turned to Mbak Riska.

"Ehh...iy..iy.iya mah," said Mbak Riska shocked who was focusing on her mobile phone.

"Hmmmm..you're playing mobile phone keep Ris," said Bu Sri a little upset.

"This is not playing mah.Riska mobile phone again see the photos Reno and Rani earlier.Funny and good," defended Mbak Riska while showing the screen of her mobile phone to Ms. Sri.

Bu Sri and Kak Reno looked on out of curiosity.

"Send to Reno yes" asked Reno.

"Mama is also Ris" said Bu Sri.

Mbak Riska wrinkled her forehead while slightly reddening her lips.

"Hmmmmm...the turn was hold the phone and take a photo on do not like.Ehhh..now right look at the picture at begai.Ckkkkkkkkkk.....," said Mbak Riska while shaking his head.

"That's aja ngambek mbak,"reply Kak Reno while pinching Mbak Riska's cheek.

"Ren, sick to know.Ngak mbak kasih that way,"grertak Mbak Riska on Sister Reno.

"Ehhhhh..do not that dong mbak.Iya ..iya Reno apologize.Kirimin ya mbak please!," said Kak Reno pleading.

"Udah deh you two are like a child only.Then will see Rani,"sela Bu Sri.

I just looked at Reno and Ms. Riska.

Their behavior is sometimes adult but sometimes also childish.

However, I know they love each other and complement each other as brothers and sisters.

I saw Reno's laughter happy.

Never before has he smiled after this without a burden.

It is so very different than before.

Yeah, every time with him.

Fulfilling the coloured frame of my days will be his attitude that amazes and impresses.

It made me stop to look at him.
