I Leave It To You

A match for Zahra

There was a sound of the motor in the starter and followed by the sound of greetings from the home page . Shortly afterwards, father was seen walking into the house to the family room where his wife and daughter-in-law gathered waiting for his arrival with a curious heart expecting an explanation from him.

They were confused when it arrived - father came home with two young men . And even more confused when the father told Zahra to serve drinks to his guests, arguing that someone wanted to see Zahra . From the words of their father they were sure that Zahra would be betrothed to one of the male guests .

Father walked towards the sofa occupied by the mother, then he sat his body next to the mother . His gaze was directed towards his wife and daughter-in-law who were looking at him with a questionable gaze . In his breath he breathed heavily before he explained to his family it .

" huff .. His name is Adi Nugraha, he works as a teacher in a country Elementary School, his son is polite and the main thing is his religion is good . I'm sure he can be a good husband to Zahra ."

Mother shifted closer to father , grabbed the palm of father's hand and then held it while on his trunk.

"Well this is not too rushed, Zahra just a year ago graduated SMU . His nature is also still childish . He is our responsibility . Should not we follow his will to continue his education rather than marry him "

Dad looked into mom's eyes sharply withstanding the annoyance that mom didn't give her the support to marry Zahra to her future choice . At the release of the mother's hand grip from her fingers.

" Mom must understand why I didn't allow Zahra to continue her education . Why high school if later only as a housewife."

Mother grabbed back the palm of the father's hand and held back the fingers of the father's hand and on his trunk in the hope that her husband should not be angry with his words .

" Yes.. mother understand well ..mother understands what is the concern of father , but if later Zahra can be a successful person we will also be proud"

Dad snorted annoyed at hearing mother's words .

" If you understand your concerns, why do you expect Zahra to be a successful person . So if Zahra works what about the grandchildren of the father ? sent to child care ? Yes if handled well otherwise how mom"

" There will be a mother who will take care of the grandchildren of the mother ."

" Thank God if we are given long life if not how the fate of our grandchildren later."

"Astaghfirullah I swore you'd die fast, yeah?" my father yes .. Same mother ."

Mom looked at pias' father while pouting off her hand from her fingers. The father who saw the mother sulking began to wave and immediately pulled the palm of the mother's hand and patted - the back of the mother's hand .

" Eh..Ma'am, that's not what Mom's father meant, where maybe I swore mom, dad would love to die with mom. "

Suddenly the father's words made the mother's face instantly blush and singed a thin smile on her lips . But the mother turned her face away from the father so that the husband did not see his smile and still pretended to sulk so that the father would listen to his opinion. I hope that my father will fulfill Zahra's request to continue his education. Frankly, the mother is still not willing to let go of the youngest for a household.

" Mum already dong ma'am, shame it's seen children ." Persuade the father while looking at his children hoping to get help from them

Mas Syarif who saw the behavior of his parents can only scratch his head that does not itch. While Mbak Fara opened her lips because because of the quarrel between her parents was curious about the figure of the man who will be paired with his favorite sister so unanswered.

Fara said as she approached her mother and sat next to her mother while embracing her mother's shoulders.

" Oh yes father, the man named Adi Nugraha who wants to mate with Zahra which is the father of the two people?"

The question mbak Fara made the mother, mas Syarif, mas Arif and mbak Lia turn their eyes towards the father.

" Ehm. that.. The one named Adi is the .. Ehm .who was wearing blue." said the father as he stuttered.

" Athaghfirullah father, really the same father Zahra cook Zahra in matchmaking with who wears blue clothes anyway "pekik mbak Fara.

The mother who did not peek behind the partition of the appearance of a guest who will be betrothed to her youngest child then asked.

"Why is Far , ugly.. The man you're gonna be betrothed to with your sister ."

" Where ya ma'am .ya I explained it. I'm not body shaming yes the same but .."

" It's so complicated that Far you are . If you want to say ugly yes ..say aja ugly it does not need to beat around the bush to make the mother dizzy aja dengerinnya ".

" Ih this mother is not very impatient anyway . I'd like to explain without any body shaming intent that's the same as him."

" yes already Far cepetan lebisin, mother was curious this."

" He's the color of his skin sapodilla mature bu, not ugly anyway bu .. handsome it is relatively yes no heck. If I think black is sweet. Just his body is healthy really, afraid if later the Zahra clamp his body, can squeeze him ."

Said mbak Fara while giggling but immediately speechless once got a plot from the mother.

" dad.. What is the other guy who can't - how can you match Zahra with that guy ? Already not allowed to go to college, work also can not , even asked to marry a man whose shape is like that".

" Athaghfirullah Ma'am .. You can't insult that person, it's the same as insulting God because you've insulted his creation" said the father

" Athaghfirullah psalm, O Allah, I do not mean that, O Allah, forgive the servants of Allah..".

" Mom before saying that first think not just to say it . As with the father, the father is looking for a prospective daughter-in-law also not from comot aja, but also must be in accordance with religious law. It is not always clear that looking for a soul mate is not only seen from his wealth or appearance alone, but look at his religion. Wealth can be sought as well as appearances that can be changed, but good religious knowledge can bring benefit in his life later. And it just so happens that the choice of father's mother is hafidz Qur'an loh bu , indeed the mother does not want later in the afterlife we wear the crown".

Father's words seemed to be a marker that what he wanted could not be challenged by his family .
