I've seen you

Suddenly Apply

Rizal sat on the middle sofa while leaning back. He felt bored without a cell phone, especially without it he found it difficult to contact Lisa. He did not have time to buy a new phone after his phone was badly damaged due to the accident.

"Tumben's not dating?" asked Bu Ela while sitting next to her son because from then on Miss Ela only saw Rizal daydream.

"Yesterday, Mama said, I can't date. Now asked like gini. What do you want Mama?"

"Well that Mama, you're happy. You're Mama's only child. I don't want to see you sad anymore." Said Bu Ela while rubbing Rizal's hair for a moment.

"So two yuk Ma his son."

Ms. Ela seemed to have scrunched her forehead. "Rizal you want a sister? If only Mama could, you've made a little sister long ago." Ms. Ela let out a long breath at the end of her sentence. "Can you just Mama used to have to fight to join this program."

Rizal slightly scratched his head because of the reaction of his mother who failed to understand his words.

Hearing that, Alan laughed. Then come sit on the sofa next to Rizal. Now Rizal is between his parents. "Mama baperan. That Rizal doesn't mean he wants a sister, Ma."

"Keep Pa?" Miss Ela still doesn't understand.

"Rizal wants Lisa to be Mama's daughter-in-law."

"Rubber." Rizal smiles. "Papa is very understanding. Lamarin yes Pa to Lisa's parents."

"When you want?" ask Mr. Alan.

"Later tonight."

Miss Ela widened her eyes, she was quite surprised by this desire of her son. "What?! Rizal wait for you to graduate from college just thinking about marriage. Are you ready to go to the household? Marriage is not just a biological need. You also have to be able to support people's children. To happy it in a born and inward way. Don't play take people's children and you're not happy. His parents were very poor with affection. There will also be many problems that you face after marriage. Have you thought about all that?"

Rizal and Mr. Alan exchanged lyrics. If Ms. Ela had argued, it could not be cut off like a railroad. "Have, Ma? If Rizal wants to talk."

"Yes, what's the reason you suddenly asked Lisa to apply?"

"Come, Ma. After the accident, I realized that the life time in this world was only short. I don't want to be late for something, let alone good intentions. More sins are better than getting married. And, God willing, I can support Lisa's birth and inner self."

Miss Ela took a deep breath. Rizal's words are true. "Well, if that's what you want."

"When do you plan to get married?" ask Mr. Alan.

Rizal seemed to think while counting something. "Two months, Pa."

Again, Rizal made his mother surprised. "Rizal, what a pussy. Wait for you to finish the thesis first. Can you focus on your thesis after marriage? You're in 5th semester now."

Rizal nodded confidently. "Can Ma. I have prepared the material for the thesis. My mom is calm."

Mr. Alan patted Rizal on the shoulder. He never doubted his son's wishes. "I'm sure you can."

"If Papa always follow Rizal's will."

"As long as his intentions are good, don't papa, Ma."

"Yes, the important thing is that you're happy." Miss Ela hugged Rizal for a moment. "But after marriage, Lisa lives here huh?" Miss Ela re-enforced herself and looked at Rizal with expectant eyes.

"Yes, Ma. Let Lisa be here. Lisa's house is close so she can go home every day. And, later Mama also I make grandchildren, let's add rame."

Mr. Alan laughed while patting Rizal on the shoulder. "Zal, you're so tired of it."

Mom Ela was very enthusiastic. "Then you say to Edi if we want to go to his house."

"No need, Ma. I want a surprise for Lisa."

"What if your application is rejected? Lisa is 19 years old, who knows if Mr. Edi and Ms. Reni did not get Lisa married young." The enthusiasm of Bu Ela who had just appeared instantly disappeared due to her own thinking.

"It's important to work first, Ma. My mom is calm and doesn't have to think about it. Mama wants another child, right? Mama wants to have a grandchild soon, right?"

Bu Ela's smile was echoed by the lure of Rizal about grandchildren. Miss Ela stood up immediately. "Well, must be prepared for souvenirs first, it is not possible to dong to the candidate's house empty-handed. Mumpung still afternoon Mama want to go to the supermarket first." Miss Ela immediately went inside the room getting ready.

Rizal and Mr. Alan just laughed at Miss Ela's behavior.

"Yes, her name is also female. Later if you are married, you will understand that the woman's feelings can change for a second."

Rizal thought for a moment. Did ya??

...***...

"Lisa, come on, baby." Call Ms. Reni from the front of Lisa's room because Lisa hasn't finished dressing up.

"Yes, Ma. It's over." Lisa out.

Miss Reni looked at Lisa. Just wearing a long coat and hair tied a little back just takes a long time to finish. "You're dandan or gerogi?" ask Ms. Reni.

Lisa's just a horse. "Cerogies, Ma."

"Yes come on, let's not stay." Ms. Reni holds Lisa's hand but when they get to the door, they cross paths with Rizal and his parents who have reached the porch.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat.."

"Wa'alaikumsalam" replied Mr. Edi while shaking Mr. Alan's hand. "Sir RT, we're just going to the house, looking at Rizal. What's the need?"

Lisa was surprised. What happened Rizal and his parents came to the house. What would forbid him to be close to Rizal, yes that was Lisa's bad thought.

Rizal looked at Lisa while smiling seductively. She knew Lisa must have been very surprised by her arrival with her parents.

"Sign in first. We'll talk inside." take Mr. Edi. They all went inside and sat in the living room chairs.

"Mom Ela, why bother bringing souvenirs. It's actually us who want to go to Miss Ela's house. Thanks yeah..."

"It's not papa, ma'am."

"Sit down, Mom." Ms. Reni and Lisa went into the house to the kitchen to make drinks and a little banquet.

"Ma, what is it Rizal's brother here with his parents. Do they want to ban Lisa from being close to Rizal's sister."

"Husst, don't be so bad. Here's the drink. Let Mama take this."

Lisa and her mom came out of the kitchen with some drinks and some food. Although very gerogi Lisa served three cups of drinks and put it on the table. Fortunately, it did not spill.

"Repot, Mom..."

"Yes, not papa. Come, drink. Lisa, sit here." Miss Reni and Lisa are sitting next to each other.

Rizal was still smiling staring at Lisa's expression. He felt very anxious to tease her.

"Sir Alan," Mr. Edi began the conversation. "I'd like to apologize about the accident. Because my son Rizal's belain is a wretch."

"Already Sir. Forget about that.."

"Then, what did Mr. Alan and his family mean here? Do you want to ban Lisa from being close to Rizal because Rizal wants a thesis?"

Mr. Alan laughed, apparently the words of his wife had contaminated the mind of Lisa's family. "No, Sir. Not about that. We're here at Rizal's request to propose to Mr.'s daughter."

Lisa widened her eyes in surprise, she was now looking at Rizal who was still smiling towards her. Mr. Edi and Ms. Reni were also surprised. They had not thought of it before.

"Apply Lisa?" Mr. Edi is still in disbelief, it all feels very sudden.

"Yes, it seems too sudden. But we as parents should support Rizal's good intentions. How, was my child's application accepted?"

Mr. Edi and Ms. Reni looked at each other. Then Mr. Edi began to answer, "Lisa is now 19 years old is actually very young to build a household. But for the sake of their happiness we as parents can only guide and fulfill their desires." Mr. Edi is now staring at Lisa who looks very gerogi. "How about Lisa, did you accept Rizal's proposal?"

Lisa bit her lower lip. What does he have to answer? Everything felt so sudden without preparation. "Because this proposal is very sudden, so I........"
