"You're lucky, young man's this good... Just saying 'yes' or 'no' is it wes, Ra..." Tegur father who seemed to have been impatient to hear Rara's answer.
"It can't be that easy to say YES or no, sir." Rara answered rather.
Really, he had absolutely no intention of accepting this proposal. But yes it was... He was confused to refuse. Looks like both of his parents really hope that he will say YES.
"Why is that so? Do you have your own choice of heart?" Ask the father again.
Ja
"Yes, that's not it..."
It would be a shame if his parents knew that he liked Danu.
"Well, continues?" Chase father.
"Yes... Mas Irwan came here just wanted to bring me home, not to propose. The time I came directly shot a proposal like this...?"
Mom stared hard at Rara. Father also. While Mr. Rusdi and Irwan exchanged glances.
"Oooh, I understand what Rara's deck means...." Irwan said suddenly.
Everyone stared at Irwan, curious. What does he know... What does Rara mean? Rara herself is not sure.
Do you really understand what I mean?
"I understand the meaning of Rara's deck... Proposal of a sacred moment for a woman. Obviously this is not how sir..." Irwan said as he looked at his father.
Mr. Rusdi took a look at his son's face, trying to read his point.
"Oh... Da... Understood... Son Rara, it took us at least a day to formally prepare the application. Later I ask his mother Irwan to prepare everything... God willing, tomorrow night we come again to prove our seriousness..." Said Mr. Rusdi.
Rara gawking. Why did it even become like this? His intention to cancel is even like assuring and asking for proof of seriousness?
Another expression of Rara's face, another also the facial expression of her father and mother. Mr. Suminto smiled happily to hear the seriousness of Mr. Rusdi, while the mother even like a condolence of her own, until her hands reflexively patted Rara's thighs warned.
"But...But.. not begi~."
Rara was confused as to what to say now. He could only swallow the saliva that seemed to be stuck in the throat...
"I mean Rara don't bother, son Irwan... Kang Rusdi's... As long as Irwan is serious about marrying Rara..." Mother's bumbling speech.
Mother does not want the Irwan family to think, if the family complicates and asks for various items to accept the proposal. She exchanged looks with her husband.
"Yes right Kang.. Rara was just the origin of talking, maybe surprised because her proposal was sudden...." Sahut.
"Yes.nothing... That's pretty much so..." Said Mr. Rusdi.
"Remember sir, ma'am... It is an honor for us to be given the opportunity to apply for Rara's deck in the best possible way. After all, the moment is now less fitting. Maybe Rara's deck still needs time to think about the decision to be taken." Irwan.
Mr. Rusdi nodded in agreement to hear his son's words.
"However, the decision to marry is a decision for a lifetime... So it feels unfair, if I insist to ask the answer now.let Rara's deck consider, whether or not she really wants to marry me... Although heavy also for me, if the answer deck Rara later turned out to be NO. But God willing, we'll wait until tomorrow night..." Irwan.
"God's Masya....Less understanding especially son Irwan is the same as you Ra..." Say mother.
Rara was silent again. Irwan's words are sweet, but that doesn't mean he can be that easy to say YES.
"Alright, then, son Irwan... Kang Rusdi... Then we also have to prepare for tomorrow night, because we also have to welcome the arrival of the great guest as well as possible, right, ma'am?" Said Mr. Suminto.
"Yes, of course, sir. This is a historic moment for our family... Finally Rara got a husband..." Mommy's speech with flowers.
"Ma'buuu." Hiss Rara while narrowing her eyes.
"Father.. mother.. Can Rara talk alone with Irwan mas ...?" Ask Rara. He felt he had to talk seriously with Irwan.
"Yo opo, anyway... Being betrothed is like refusing, but instead asking to be alone..." Pak Suminto's chirps are half-literate.
"Loh, that's not it..." Rara became embarrassed herself to hear father's taunts.
"Udah. there talk together. Just ahead, don't go far..." Father's orders finally.
Rara looked at Irwan and gestured with her eyes, so that Irwan would get up and follow him to the front porch. Irwan nodded in understanding.
"Excuse me, sir..." Pamit Irwan's. Then he got up and followed Rara who had already walked first to the terrace.
Arriving at the terrace, Rara immediately turned to face Irwan who was still walking closer.
"What do I mean by Irwan?" Rara's assault was a bit late.
"I mean? It's obvious, I'm proposing to Rara..."
"Why is this suddenly so..."
"If I knew Rara from yesterday... Yes, from yesterday I also applied for Rara." Reply Irwan calmly while sitting on the rattan chair on the terrace.
Duuuh, crazy really is a person...
"Mas..seriously this..." Rara was almost desperate. Irwan smiled again with his calm.
"Gini Ra's... If I say that I love you dead, it means lying. But you need to know, that since our meeting that night, my brain has only been filled with you..."
"Ishhh gombal." Cut Rara. Unsuspecting her heart to flower also heard Irwan's words.
"Loh, not this dreadlocks... Rara thinks why did I meet today...?"
"Yes, how do I know... Afternoon meeting...night proposing, tomorrow what?"
"Yes married..."
Crazyhead!
"It can't be that simple to say yes to marriage..."
"Yes it's not that easy, so I give Rara time to think. Rara wants istikharah first.want to consider friends or friends first can also. If Rara can't give you the answer tomorrow night is also nothing..." Irwan said still with a calm tone, making Rara even more confused herself.
"Don't be a burden. Now I ask, make Rara ready tomorrow? If not ready, tomorrow we do not have to do a strange event..." Irwan said again.
"Well, how are the fathers?"
"Father mah, let me talk to them later. Even if we still come tomorrow, think of it as a silahturahmi event between two families. Let's just say it's to please both of our parents..."
Rara was still pensive for some time, until Irwan finally invited her back into the house.
Inside, they had not really discussed the application problem, until Mr. Rusdi finally parted home because the night was getting late. But before returning home, Mr. Rusdi reiterated his intention to return tomorrow night.
"Dek Minto, we go home first... Tomorrow night insha Allah ba'da Isya, we will return if we are allowed..."
"Well Kang..we are waiting for the arrival of Kang Rusdi family tomorrow..."
Rara's father and mother drove them both to the courtyard. Until Irwan left in his car and Mr. Rusdi on the motorcycle he used to attend the deliberation of rajaban this year. The deliberation turned to the arranged marriage of Rara and Irwan.
Everyone looks so happy and excited. Only Rara is still a lame.
Danu... Why would he be able to colonize this heart so badly? Rara, how is this...?
