Late Wedding?

Not a Boyfriend, But a Girlfriend

*****

I just stood awkwardly after kissing the back of Aunt Linda and Om Pram's hands. Reynand himself was still asleep in his sleep, while Om Pram chose to sit directly on the sofa. The current atmosphere was really awkward, I was confused about what to do.

"Thank you, Son Qilla, take care of Rey. This child will definitely make you can not sleep all night, Rey if sick does like fussy and spoiled. Different from Risha or Silfi," said Aunt Linda after the silence had enveloped.

He smiled as he stroked my shoulder. While I just smiled awkwardly.

"Son Qilla's had breakfast yet?" aunt Linda asked kindly, although I knew that she was trying to get rid of the awkwardness.

"Aunty look, I'll just look outside. What about Auntie? Not having breakfast yet?"

"Om and Aunty had breakfast at home, you had breakfast there, baby. Later if even sick how, later Aunt who scolded your mother again. Keep going home first. It's not Auntie ngusir, yeah. Just aunty is not good, you seem tired of gini abis keep Rey. So, just go home first, rest at home. If you're new here again."

I'm nodding. "Yes, Aunt. I'll go home first." I immediately kissed Aunt Linda's back hand to say goodbye, then approached Om Pram to say goodbye.

"Pamit first, Om," I said as I kissed Om Pram's hand with a slight tremble.

Om Pram smiled as he nodded. He also thanked me for taking care of his son, not forgetting to remind me to drive carefully. I just nodded in agreement as a sign of my answer, then exited Rey's room hurriedly.

"Destroyed is my image in front of the camer," I sighed as I closed the door and walked away leaving Rey's room.

I was shocked to find Mom and Dad standing in front of my boutique. Father looks relaxed with his flagship batik shirt while traveling, while Mother appears to wear a cream-colored robe with her wide hijab is grumbling while fiddling with her phone, occasionally Mother appears to stick her phone in her ear. What I'm guessing, must be calling me.

"Mother!! The father!!" seruku happy. Without shame I immediately ran towards them, hugging Father and Mother alternately.

Mother immediately touched my skin after the cuddle, making me frown in annoyance.

"Where from? Ditelfon can not-can," grumbled Mom while putting her phone in the bag.

I grimaced. "Hape Qilla's dead, out of battery."

"Where are you, nduk? Looking for breakfast?" It was my turn to ask.

I was silent for a moment, not daring to answer straight away. "Hospital," my great-grandson slowly.

"Hospital? Who is sick? You?" ask Mother.

"No. Qilla Temen. Ah, come in first, yuk. Time here chatting," I said trying to divert the conversation, in a hurry I opened the boutique and invited Mom and Dad in.

"Who's sick, nduk?" repeat, I'm still curious.

I was sitting on the couch watching the news on tv. While Mother still stood curiously in front of the counter table.

I sighed while closing the refrigerator door without taking anything out of there.

"Then Qilla answered, Mom."

"But your answer is less specific so I ask again."

"It's Rey, Mom."

"Rey? You've never heard that name? Wh who? Your new boyfriend?"

"No. But the like."

"You're talking opo, to? Ora cetho," grumbled Mother pretended not to understand.

"Qilla knows I understand the truth, but yes it will be Qilla. Rey is a deception of Qilla who could potentially be a mother's ghost."

Mom suddenly fell silent after hearing my answer. Both of his eyes seemed to be glancing at me sharply, like they were not quite satisfied with my answer.

I let out a breath. "I said the age of Qilla is not suitable for dating, yes already so Qilla chose not to date."

"Friends.. live." I shrugged my shoulders indifferently.

I laughed when I heard my ucpan. Makes Mom look straight at you. Automatically make you immediately stop his little laugh and pretend to focus on watching tv.

Mom snorted while looking at me a bit awkwardly. "Yes, take a shower. Later we go to the hospital, I want to see your friend who has the potential to be Mom's daughter-in-law."

"Huh?"

"Ora is mostly not a takon. Buruan, lek ndhang shower there!" mother's orders before choosing to join on the sofa with Father.

While I was still in front of the fridge. Suddenly nervous. I have not been able to if I have to meet Aunt Linda and also Om Pram, seriously not able to. Duh, I shouldn't have been honest, yes.

"Have a night, hunt a bath to, nduk! Mom's mommy's having an event later."

Mother's voice managed to disperse my daydream.

"What event do you have?" many wonder.

I think Mom and Dad just want to play with me.

"Take a look at your Father" replied Mother while seizing the remote that had been held by Father. You look upset but can't do much.

"Who's sick, sir?" my many.

"No. Not sick, you just want to meet with your High School first, want to talk normally."

"Will you buy the land?"

Father shakes. "No. But it's you who wants to buy."

"In Semarang?"

He nodded as a sign of response.

"Aqilla, shower! Don't keep wondering," exclaimed Mother commanding me with emotion.

I grumbled in annoyance, only then did I enter the bathroom. Once I finished the bath I immediately joined Mom and Dad on the sofa. Mother who was busy with the ftv being watched now immediately turned her head and looked at me sharply.

"Don't you change clothes?"

I shook my head and chose to rest my head on the sofa.

"Capek, Mum. Later, or sometime-AKKHH is sick, Mom," I protested while screaming in pain, because of Mom's mess.

"Just I don't want to know, now you change your clothes there! Then we go after."

"Mom" my whine is clear.

"Ora don't worry. Swish there!"

With a sullen expression I finally relented. Get up and go into the room to change clothes. When I finished I went straight out of the room with shaky steps.

"Seriously leaving now?" I'm not willing.

"Yes that. Come on, let's go now," take Mom straight to her feet. Then take out my shoulder. "Come, hunt to, sir!"

He nodded then stood up, patted me on the shoulder with a smile and whispered. "Come, you also can't wait to meet prospective ghosts," he later ledek.

I frowned then followed behind the Father.
