Let Time

Part 2

In accordance with the plan, tonight ba'da isya family residence pak Akbar already rama by family entourage pak Zain. They are ready in the side garden that has been arranged in such a way. No wait long for the event to open with the chant of the holy verse of the Quran recited by Ahkam.

Furthermore, the family of Mr. Zain represented by Mr. Zain himself conveyed a greeting that contained a thank you for the good welcome from Mr. Akbar's family to receive his arrival and also convey his family's intentions and goals come to the family residence of Mr. Akbar.

Mr. Akbar also gave a word of greeting that contained a thank you for being willing to visit then an apology if in the reception of guests there are less pleasing and the latter responds to the good intentions expressed by the family of Mr. Zain and bring Zara to the middle of the event.

A few minutes the guests waited, Zara finally appeared from the direction in the house accompanied by her sister Abizar. His arrival successfully made some people stunned Arkan was no exception.

"Zara here son" said the mother led Zara to sit between Father and Mother and also in front of Arkan.

"Well, this is our daughter" said Mr. Akbar to break the attitude of the guests who had always been watching Zara.

Seeing his son still glued to Zara, Zain immediately nudged Arkan's arm.

"Istigfar Abang is not yet the time" said Mr. Zain whispered to Arkan who managed to get Arkan to take his eyes off Zara.

"Let's son now it's your turn to express the good intentions of our family to come here to the directly concerned" said Mr. Zain again to connect the event. Although Arkan is lazy and forced but he also does not want to disappoint and malukam his family, especially his parents. He obeyed what his father had ordered.

"Assalamu'alaikum Wr's. Wb. Good night everyone. I Arkan Zaini Adriansyah came here with the family intending to abuse the daughter of Mr. Akbar to be my life companion. Is sister Zara ready?" arkan said firmly with a face made as calm as the affairs of the heart let Arkan himself feel.

Arkan's words were greeted with smiles of happiness from almost all pairs of watching eyes. But another case with Zara hearing the words Arkan his heart suddenly had an irregular rhythm, his hands cooled and trembled. Zara was confused if she had been convinced by one answer before but why this time the belief seemed to disappear when she could clearly see there was a look of coercion from the man she was about to be betrothed to. Zara thought what would happen if the marriage rope was knitted with coercion even though Zara also felt forced but as much as possible she put those feelings aside with a sincere feeling of acceptance.

"Zara, have you heard? So how did Zara answer?" tanya Father (Pak Akbar) managed to resuscitate Zara from her daydream.

"Zaa.. Zaa.. Zara." said Zara stammered then stopped her speech lali took as many breaths as she did.

"Bismillah Yes Father Insha Allah Zara accepted" said Zara trying not to show her doubts.

All who watched simultaneously uttered 'Alhamdulillah' while exhaling a sigh of relief. Arkan is no exception, although in fact any answer has no effect on Arkan but I don't know to hear the girl answer yes accept there is relief in his heart at least Arkan thought he did not disappoint his family, especially his parents.

Mama Arkan immediately stood up from her seat as well as Zara, Mama Rani immediately put the ring on Zara's ring finger.

That night they immediately determined the date of the wedding and it was agreed if the wedding will be held approximately 2 months more precisely after Zara graduation. Done to set the date guests are welcome to enjoy the various dishes that have been provided. Except for Zara, he prefers to cover the gazebo Zara mused while looking at the ring that just a few minutes ago circled in her window thinking whether the decision he took was right? He thinks there is still a compulsion can one day the sense of compulsion is eroded or even more thickened and boomerang for the next step. I don't know Zara can only pray and thicken her trust if everything will be okay.

"Hey. Assalamu'alaikum." Sapa a woman who awakened Zara from her daydream.

"Eh Waalaikumsalam's. Sit down." said Zara, letting the woman sit down.

"If I may know why I think my sister is daydreaming?" ask the woman. Zara slightly frowned because the woman called her brother when viewed anyway it looks like the woman aged above him let alone see he held a small child who is estimated to be 2 years old.

Conscious of Zara's astonishment the woman introduced herself

"Hehe I'm Alisya Arkan's brother and this is Sabiya my 30-month-old son" Alisya explained.

"Oh yes, hai sabiya" said Zara while menoel noel sabiya cheek.

"Hallo aunty" said Alisya mimicking the voice of a small child and was greeted with laughter by Zara.

"Have you eaten?" ask Zara.

"Ah don't call brother we seem to be the same age" Zara said

"Hehe I'm 23 years older. Let me call you brother itung get used to the call for the prospective sister-in-law right" said Alisya.

"Yayaya is split by Mama Sabiya" said Zara who was replied with laughter by Alisya.

"What should Zara call sister?" ask Zara to Alisha.

"Hmm call Ica that's my call every day."

"Okay Ica's sister."

"Gausah uses my brother here adek."

"Hmm please hehe."

"Jaudah is as comfortable as sister-in-law."

At that time, they could get to know each other. The 3-year-old little girl also looked comfortable and a hen in Zara's sling. Without them noticing there was a pair of eyes paying attention to their interaction. The face that is difficult to interpret really looks firm on Arkan's face.

"ekhem." deheman Hafidz Arkan's brother-in-law made Arkan turn his head towards him.

"What's fidz?" ask Arkan.

"Does it take time to talk to a future wife? If you need to let me call Ica. And samperin's brother went there not both of them there would be Sabiya" said Hafidz trying to guess his brother-in-law. Arkan was silent, without a word Hafidz immediately approached Alisya.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat. Sorry to interrupt. Ica temenin brother first yuk." take Hafidz to his wife.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Ica and Zara together.

"Well a minute." replied Hafidz.

"Zara can you take Sabiya first?" said Hafidz again.

"Oh yes" said Zara who was still watching Sabiya who had started to get sleepy in her carriage.

"Where are you going to put on all Sabiya?" ask Alisya.

"Udah Ah come on baby" said Hafidz who managed to make Alisya embarrassed while Zara felt her ears hot.

They left Sabiya with Zara. When we got to Arkan.

"Tuh bang cepet take advantage of other mumpung situations still on eating. If you don't move, you will go home" said Hafidz.

"Oh so you told Ica to come here just to let Brother Arkan nyamperin Zara?" ask Ica who is beginning to understand.

"Yes. You see Brother Arkan from earlier focused on observing you continue." replied Hafidz.

"Sok knows." replied Arkan about to go in another direction that was not approaching Zara.

"Where are you going? Bener said Abang Hafidz Abang mending samperin Zara, the least acquaintance is hehe" said Alisya.

"Not yet mahram either." Arkan replied spontaneously.

"There is no Sabiya. Then you'll take Sabiya from Zara. Udah ah come Abang Hafidz we let this lovebirds" said Alisya pulled Hafidz's hand.

Arkan was just grumbling in annoyance.

A few minutes later Arkan remained in his position. Arkan is still hesitant to approach Zara at least Arkan needs a reason if later Zara asks why he is there. After thinking okay yes decided to approach and if asked the reason then Arkan will answer to take Sabiya.

"Assalamu'alaikum" Arkan said as he was near Zara.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Zara. After this only silence accompanied them neither Arvan nor Zara yet anyone wanted to start a conversation. While Sabiya was already soundly asleep in Zara's arms.

"Mr here to pick up Sabiya, right? Nih Sabiya is already asleep" said Zara opened the conversation while continuing to look at the adorable Sabiya.

"Huh. Uh yes. But actually I just picked up the phone." said Arkan who was nervous because of the reason he had thought could be guessed by Zara and also wait what was Zara calling him what? Mister? Arkan was as old as that time. Zara just nodded without looking.

"May I sit down" said Arkan, who had been standing faithfully. Zara immediately turned her head she did not know if Arkan just stood up.

"Please" said Zara briefly as she shifted her seat. Arkan immediately occupied himself.

Silence returned to accompany the two.

"What's the reason you're willing to accept this match?" ask Arkan to arrive. Zara's body suddenly stiffened, what answer should Zara say.

"It's impossible for you to accept it for no reason" Arkan said.

"Hmm." replied Zara with a mutter.

"So what's the reason?" ask Arkan again.

"It makes sense or not but Zara's reason just doesn't want to disappoint Zara's parents nor does it want them to sin for reneging on the promise they've made" Zara replied.

"OKAY. The reason we are more or less the same is only the same because of the parents. Hopefully what is the reason we will not hurt ourselves later." replied Arkan.

"The 2 months are long. Anything can happen, if you want to cancel Zara at all do not mind." I don't know the courage from which Zara answered so.

"See there my parents and your parents seem so happy that I think it's ruining their happiness?" ask Arkan. Zara could only remain silent.

"Let it be calm however God willing is responsible for what I have decided" Arkan replied.

"It's already night. Soon also maybe my family home, here Sabiya let with me." Arkan took Sabiya from Zara's sling.

"Oh yes I forgot I was told by my mother that the day after tomorrow there was an agenda to meet with WO and I was ordered to come with you. I hope you don't mind because it's my mom's order" Arkan said.

"But.but."

"If you mind you protest yourself with mommy huh. I was arguing with my mom. I'm sorry Assalamualaikum." said Arkan as he walked away.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Zara slowly.

'Poor man expression.' said Zara muttering to herself.

Seriate...
