Until morning arrived, both Byan and Lifi were both locked in their respective rooms. Lifi was only out when her parents called her for breakfast. Even after breakfast, he went back to his room. Because it is fitting that day is Saturday, and the lecture schedule is free.
The same is true of Byan in his home. He only came out when he was called to breakfast by his sister.
"Pa, shouldn't we just say it to Byan now" bu Kinan asked her husband a little to tell his son who she was going to marry tomorrow. He could not bear to see his son like this.
"tomorrow, now let him in his room. Itung-itung Byan undergoes a pingitan process" said Mr. Rahman while smiling at his wife
"ish...papa still keeps smiling, what if Byan runs off hem?" bu Kinan was a little upset because her husband even asked her to joke.
"mama calm down. He will not run away where the child will make his mother cry" said Mr. Rahman sure.
"what mommy is sleeping with Byan tonight, to make sure the boy stays at home" said bu Kinan to give input to her husband.
"Where does my mom want to sleep with Byan. He's big, after all. Papa was sure that the child was fine" answered her husband, He felt anxious because his wife might have a strange idea like that.
"Ck.mama was just worried" said Bu Kinan a little upset. Because indeed, Rahman had never allowed himself to sleep with his children in the past, except when they were sick, only he got it. The reason is quite classic, he said he could not sleep if not the same himself.
Same with Lifi, now he is in his room. Faris who had just arrived immediately asked Nadira and her mother to go to her sister's room to see her condition.
"dek.ini brother. Open the door dong" said Faris while knocking on the door of Lifi's room.
Lifipun then rushed to open it.
"i don't welcome you to come anyway, usually very enthusiastic if you come" Faris said as he walked inside and sat on the bed.
"sorry brother, Lifi did not know that today brother came" replied Lifi
"why are you kayaking out the cry of hem?" Faris deliberately pretended to ask her to know what the answer was from her sister.
" sister don't know, what's pretending not to know?" said Lifi while pursing her lips
Faris also chuckled to see his sister's behavior.
"don't cry, want to see not a photo of her future husband like how?" Byan opened her phone and intended to give it to Lifi to show the face of the candidate who will be her husband tomorrow.
"no want, at most people are ugly and their age is also much different from Lifi"
Lifi thought that the one who would marry her was an old man.
"you got the wrong deck, he's young. Where is handsome again" Faris looks at the photo displayed on his phone screen.
"sorry Lifi was not interested" said Lifi while turning her back to her brother and her tone was a little ketus.
"if you don't want to" Faris put the phone back in his pocket.Faris getting closer to his sister
"grandfather, you know this is hard for you, but you have to believe that no parent wants to make his child sad. I'm sure, the man that my father chose for you is a good man and comes from a good family as well. Maybe now you can't accept it because you don't know him yet. But I'm sure as time goes by, that love will grow on its own. And brother also sure if the man can love you as much as father and brother love you. You also have to be sure of that" Faris spoke by stroking the top of his sister's head, trying to give her a little advice so that she would not look sad anymore. Farispun then came out of Lifi's room after making sure his sister was okay.
Now Lifi seems to be trying to digest what her brother said. Slowly his heart began to soften and again tried to accept what would be the destiny of his life.
If his father ever said that setting him up with the son of his friend was one form of returning the favor to his best friend, maybe with him accepting this matchmaking is a little form of Lifi's return to his parents.
"let the girl you are Lif" said Byan inwardly imagining if the girl he would marry tomorrow was Lifi
"must take you off before even telling you the true feeling, why it feels this heavy as a Lif" Byan also seemed to speak for himself.
Now Byan only realized, if not forever present it will be destiny.But what is destined will certainly be met and united.
"Her....." Byan also exhaled his coarse breath, hoping to make his overcrowded heart become a little loose.
When Byan was still focused on his own mind, suddenly there was a sound of his bedroom door being knocked and the knocking was none other than his own mother, but the knocking sound was not heard by Byan.
Feeling that there was no answer from within, Ma-kinanpun went straight in. Fortunately, the door was not locked from the inside.
Bu Kinan immediately took a position by sitting next to Byan. He patted his son on the back, so that his son would come to his senses from his daydream.
"Mama" said Byan a little keget
"sorry ma, Byan is not aware that there is a mama" said Byan later
" why haven't you slept hem" her mother asked
"not yet drowsy" replied Byan origin
"mama understands your current situation. But please believe me, Mom. Mama is sure you won't be disappointed. She's a nice girl, beautiful again." Bu Kinan said that because he understood what his son was thinking
"do you know that Byan likes other girls? Even mama had met him" this time Byan spoke by looking fixedly at his mother's face.
"now Byan asked, is the girl as good as Lifi mah? My mom also loves Lifi. But why don't you help Byan to convince you to rethink this matchmaking. Why did mama even support papa" Byan spoke in an excited tone.
"hem.." bu Kinan seemed to sigh before answering the marathon question from her son.
"honestly, at first my mother objected a little to this matchmaking.even used to think of it as the same as you, very silly. But you know for yourself that in this case your father does not want to be denied". Bu Kinan paused for a moment before continuing with his explanation
"until you find out who the girl is, I don't know why you can't turn her down. Even my mom liked it. At that time also mama was sure that she was the best match for you" continued Ms. Kinan to her son
"it is good if you can guarantee it, Byan will try to accept it" said Byan resigned.
For Byan would be very free to argue again, if his mother had said such a thing how could he dispute it.
"yes, you rest first. Prepare yourself for tomorrow" said Mr. Kinan, then moved out of place.
When he came out, he suddenly remembered something
"jeez.mama to forget" bu Kinan to pat her own forehead.
Bu Kinan almost forgot his intention and purpose of going to Byan's room.
" dear.kamu don't forget to learn the qobulnya ijab. My mother's dowry was ready. Twenty-five million cash, a set of jewelry and a set of prayer tools. For the name tomorrow, yes, mama forgot to bring the paper" said bu Kinan.
He also deliberately reasoned to forget not to bring the name of his daughter's bride because it was in accordance with the original purpose, where the little papa wanted to teach Byan a lesson. Let it be a walk tomorrow when going to the place of her contract and her husband will tell the name of the girl. They are sure, once they see his name without learning, Byan will immediately shrewdly say his qobulan ijab.
