Like the relationship between lovers Meta and Saif also undergo activities as a courtship person in general. Go on a date, pick up after work, apple to Meta home becomes Saif's routine twice a week.
This Sunday Meta entered the day shift, therefore Saif wants to go to Meta's house.
He deliberately set off in the morning so that he could be a little long at the Meta home.
When on his way he stopped at a special cake and bread, at least he had to bring the fruit of the hand.
Saif bought a box of Pudding and large-sized steamed Brownies, that's Meta's favorite.
Saif thinks this holiday will probably meet Meta's parents. It has been almost a year since their relationship was established, not even though Saif met Meta's parents.
Every time he came to his lover's house he came in the days of effective work, of course did not meet papa and mama Meta. Papa Meta himself is a civil servant in the Customs and Excise office. Mama Meta also more often to the house of Aunt Lena, helping the business of Catering Aunt Lena.
It is also impossible that Saif always avoids meeting with Meta's parents, he loves their child so must face both Meta parents.
Saif will not avoid what he is obliged to do if he is in a relationship with a girl.
He knows how to behave when dealing with parents, ethics and manners.
Meta's door opened when Saif arrived.
" Assalamu'alaikum..." Saif said his greetings right at the door with what he bought earlier.
After saying the greeting twice, someone came out of the house. "Getishalight." Mama Meta replied as she walked out from the kitchen.
" Sorry Aunt... Meta is there?" said Saif politely.
" Meta's still out for a while. Who is this boy?."
" I'm Saif his friend Meta, Aunt."
" Please come in, son Saif, come soon." Mama Meta changed his standing position so that Saif could enter the house.
" Thank you Auntie. Oh yeah this aunt has a little cake." Saif reached out to give her the cake and pudding she had bought.
Mama Meta also received what Saif proffered.
" Oh son Saif why bring all the cake. Aunty is having a hard time, son Saif?."
" Just cake is not a hassle Auntie."
" Please sit down, aunt to the back for a minute."
" yes, Aunt thank you." Saif went to the sofa and sat down.
Meanwhile in the backyard of the house papa Meta was seen sitting on a wooden chair while reading the newspaper.
" Who is ma?" said papa Meta because he also heard someone say hello.
" Oh that's Meta's friend. Papa ahead first, accompany Meta's friend." Mama Meta put the cake on the dining table.
" A friend at the mall?."
" It doesn't seem like you, mom just saw it now."
Papa Meta slightly thought there was another male figure besides his male friend in the mall who was visiting his residence.
"Yes... Papa also wants to know who the man who went home is looking for Meta."
Papa Meta put the newspaper on the table that he had read since. Sip some tea and go to the living room.
Saif had thought it was Papa Meta, when he saw him walking towards the living room.
" You're Meta's friend?." Papa Meta approached the sofa.
Instantly Saif stood up from his seat to shake hands with Papa Meta.
" Yes Om. I'm Saif Meta's friend."
" Yes, please sit down" said Papa Meta.
"Where was this?."
" From the house of Om. Intentionally came here."
" You're a mall coworker with my son?."Ask papa Meta. Like I want to know who Saif is.
" It just so happens that I'm not a friend at work. I'm a friend of his acquaintance."
" I guess one mall. Sorry you know not the intent of om introgasi you, just om want to know who is a friend of the child om. So you relax."
" I understand because I have a daughter."
" If I relax the person who is important Meta can keep themselves from the bad. Om doesn't forbid Meta from associating with anyone, as long as the intention is good yes please."
Saif just silently listened to Papa Meta. And there are words that make him think.
" Where does Saif work?." Papa Meta.
" I work on the farm." Saif replied cautiously.
" What plantation?."
" The produce of the earth happens to belong to the family."
" Well, if it belongs to the family, it can be a little relaxing to work."
" Not Om, his job is twice that of working outside. It's just that if we work alone we can determine our own time, not time bound".
" Is right. Like me who always follow office hours on time, the risk of becoming a civil servant. Who always follow the working protocol."
Meta sees Saif's car in front of the gate, he just wonders why it's here. Last night when Saif called did not say he was going home. Then she remembered that her lover had always been like that.
" Openetrance...." His regards.
"Getishalight." Saif and Papa Meta simultaneously answer the Meta greeting.
" lt... Aunty Lena said she was leaving at eleven". Meta uttered a message from his aunt as he headed to his tant house.
" Say he said it was afternoon?." Papa Meta was a little surprised at the sudden change of hours.
" Aunty Lena said she was afraid to come home last night if she left late in the afternoon, so Auntie asked for this eleven o'clock".
" God...Your aunt is always changing. Yeah, I told your mom now."
Papa Meta got up from the sofa walking to the kitchen.
Meta shrugged his shoulders saying he did not know about his tant.
After his papa left, Meta sat on the sofa that was sat on his papa.
" It's been a while.?"
" hasn't. It's only been twenty minutes."
" Obrolin is my papa the same?."
" There's nothing important just a matter of work. What do you expect when I talk to your father?. Do you want me to propose to you?" Saif was flirting with Meta.
Meta smiled by throwing a sofa cushion at Saif. " Are you brave?" asked Meta
" Why not dare ! I could've proposed to you, but the time is not right yet."
Saif was heard saying it seriously, only his face changed when saying the last part.
He did not deny that his relationship with Meta should go forward. To step forward he must skip another step before showing his seriousness on Meta.
They were still chatting when Meta's parents were about to go to Aunt Lena's house.
" meta... Mom and Dad are leaving now."
" Yes ma."
" Oh yes son Saif, Auntie stay first."
Saif stood up to shake hands with mom and dad Meta.
" Oh yeah Aunt."
" I live first Ya Saif."
" Yes Om. Careful."
Saif sat back down while Meta drove his parents to the gate.
" Whose car is this?" said Papa Meta, who was directed to his wife and son.
" Saif pa.", Meta immediately replied.
" Tell back a little, then people pass by can't. Yes, Papa left first."
" Yes pa... Be careful on the road."
Meta goes inside the house and asks Saif to pull back the car so as not to protest other road users.
"Darling, it looks like your parents are fun." Saif spoke as they reached the terrace. Saif also chose to sit on the terrace chair, the atmosphere was fresher.
" Yes so, relaxed but firm."
" I'd like to come here to know both of your parents."
" Why didn't you tell me last night that you were here?."
" Suddenly, I decided this morning."
By opening Saif's eyes says it Meta. Only Saif himself understood the meaning of his arrival to know both Meta parents.
Meta also knows if Saif does not want to be asked more why he wants to get acquainted with Meta parents.
" dear... You get ready there, take a shower." Pinta Saif to Meta.
" It's still eleven o'clock more, I leave it later at half-two a'."
" We eat out first, I want Coto Makasar again. I'll take you to the mall, sweetie." Saif explained his wish
" At Daeng Andi's place?." Meta ensures the places you want to visit Saif.
He now begins to know his beloved's favorite eating place.
" yes. It's been there fast you take a shower, so we can take a long and relaxing meal."
" Yes.iya... You wait inside not out here."
Saif nodded his head.
Meta went inside the house and went to take a shower as Saif requested.
Meanwhile, when Saif stood up from the chair and was about to step into the house, his phone suddenly rang.
Saif stopped his intention to enter and stepped slightly away from the position he was standing before to pick up the phone.
" So."
The steps are indeed good facing both parents Meta. But there was a step he had to complete first before he met them again.
