I Leave It To You

Zahra and Adi

It was late in the afternoon but Zahra had not yet returned from the hospital. This made my father and mother worried about Zahra's situation. So worried about her mother until pacing back and forth in the living room while staring out of the house hoping Zahra returns home. And every time he heard a motorbike or a car he looked out of the house hoping it was Zahra.

" Ow Ma'am..do not go back and forth dong bu, the head of the father so dizzy nih see it." said the father

" Oh Dad.... Zahra is not home yet anyway well ..this is afternoon but Zahra is not home yet also yes .. don't - don't she run away again well because it does not want to be proposed... how is this, huh?"said the mother worried without listening to the words of father.

" I think his mind is like that anyway, instead of praying for Zahra to quickly go home in good health wal afiat mala think that is not - no." said father

" Rather than waiting unclear like this mending mbak phone only Zahra and tell quickly to go home." said Aunt Ria because she could not bear to see her brother who was anxious.

" Already been contacted do not connect - connect until this dizziness mbak head." replied the mother while trying to contact again Zahra through her phone.

"Ni see do not connect again "save mom while showing her phone towards Aunt Ria.

" Have you called Fara yet?" ask Aunt Ria again.

" It was from earlier. Before I contacted Zahra I first contacted Fara, she said Zahra had been home since half twelve o'clock, but until now had not reached home . Don't worry, try it." replied mom

Not long after that there was a sound of a motorcycle in front of the house. All the people inside the house immediately turned their eyes to the outside of the house. Zahra came down from the online motorcycle and then stepped into the house after returning the helmet and handing over the payment to the driver of the online motorcycle. Everyone was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief at Zahra's arrival.

The mother who was worried about Zahra's situation immediately turned into an anxiety as soon as she saw Zahra and wanted to nag her. The father who saw the expression of his wife's face was like a lion about to pounce on his prey, immediately the father rebuked his wife.

" Mommy. don't be scolded first, Alhamdulillah he has returned home, if later the mother angry him, fear the child may run away again later." said the father of the mewanti - wanti mother.

" Assalamualaikum "Zahra immediately said a greeting when he arrived at the door of the house.

" Wa'alaikumsalam" replied everyone in the living room.

Zahra approached her parents and extended her hand to shake hands. Mom was anxious to nag Zahra but remembering her husband's words just now made her resist the urge to nag Zahra.

Aunt Ria who saw her brother's face flushed red like one holding back anger, immediately took Zahra's hand and led her towards Zahra's bedroom .

" Come Ra. You take a bath there, because the fairy is waiting for you from earlier. Have you been praying Ashar yet?" tanya Aunty Ria tried to melt the atmosphere that had been tense.

" Not yet" replied Zahra briefly.

" If you have finished bathing and praying ashar you go straight down, then you will be dressed in the guest room because the fairy is waiting for you there ." aunt Ria said as soon as she got to Zahra's doorstep.

" Yes, thank you, Zahra entered first!" said Zahra while opening the door to her room.

Aunty Ria then left Zahra's room and returned to the lower floor to help the mother prepare for Zahra's application later.

" Lia Mbak, what's wrong?" zahra asked as soon as she saw that Lia was in front of her room.

"Ehm.. That's... I was told by my mother to call you to hurry up." replied Lia

" Oh ..kok not only later mbak, mbak mbak , out of prayers magrib ?" asked Zahra while closing the door .

" The fairy said that the magrib discharged so rushed, if in a hurry the results become ugly, mending you follow what the fairy said Ra. "answered Lia.

" It's not that I don't want to recite mbak, but cook because I'm not praying Maghrib anyway mbak" explained Zahra.

" Yes you take ablution now, later when magrib stay pray aja, that's all you bother Ra ." said mbak Lia.

" Yeah then I take ablution first" said Zahra as she pointed her feet towards her room.

" Where else are you going Ra ?" mother asked Lia while holding Zahra's hand.

" He said he was told to wudhu first, this will wudhu." replied Zahra.

" Don't have to go back to your room too Ra time, in the bathroom in the guest room can be." said Mbak Lia while holding Zahra's hand to go to the guest room.

The Maghrib call all rushed to perform Maghrib prayers including Zahra. He's done just change clothes that haven't been. Fortunately his ablution had not been canceled so he could perform Maghrib prayer.

After the Maghrib prayer all rushed to prepare himself to welcome the arrival of Adi and his family. Zahra has also changed into a modern kebaya dress . Now perias is putting on a modern veil as her final touch .

Soon the Adi family arrived at Zahra's house. It turns out that the mother's estimate is correct, Adi family members who participated in the application event tonight turned out to be quite a lot as well. Not only men who come like the time of the introductions of two families a month ago. But women and children were also invited to take part in the evening application event .

After all the Adi family entourage entered Zahra's house, soon the event began. The sound of om Jamal opening the event began to be heard all over the house. And continued with the words of greeting delivered by the father as the host.

.

After the father finished giving the word welcome, then came the core event that is ring exchange. Zahra who was still in the guest bedroom was called to immediately go to the venue of the application. Zahra walked towards the event with flanked by Mbak Lia and Aunt Mila. Once there, Zahra is greeted by Adi's mother who will replace Adi pairing a marriage ring in Zahra's sweet day. Adi's ring was paired by her sister. This is done because they are still not legal to be husband and wife.

It did not feel that the series of events after events had passed and the last reading of the do'a led by Haji Rojak . After that, the group of Adi's extended family asked for permission to go home.
