Chapters. 4 Meet Nadia's parents

Aarash POV.

I also sat in Nadia's house which was not so big but neatly arranged.I looked at all corners of the room, there was no photo on the wall of the house.

I'm quite curious about Nadia's family. Nadia said she had an older sister, but I saw no one coming in the living room.

I was thinking maybe Nadia's sister was out, Nadia's father and mother were still in her food stall.

Nadia brought me tea.

"Don't bother dear" I ventured to call her dear.

Ah, but there's no one in her house.

"This doesn't bother Aa, Aa wait here first yes, I call my parents first yes"

The dining hall not far from the living room makes it easy for Nadia to go to both parents.

"Dad, Mom, Aa wants to meet"

"Yes Nadia, we'll be there"

After that I saw Nadia walking towards me again.

"With her tea Aa" Nadia said to me.

"Yes, thank you Nadia,"

I sip the tea of my beloved love.

It's yummy!

The name is already dear, whatever is presented must feel good.

"Propay Aa, father and mother again finish the stall" Nadia told me.

"How can we help your mother and father so that they can rest soon" I suggested to him.

"May, if Aa doesn't mind"

I immediately stood up and stepped into the stall without waiting for long, Nadia followed me from behind.

"Assalamu'alaikum" I said after arriving at the door of the shop.

My heart feels like it's going to be broken, this is the first time I met Nadia's parents.

"Greetings" replied Nadia's mother.

"Nadia, here's a guest" protested Nadia's father.

"This is Dad, Aa just wants to help Dad and mom, so that it can be finished quickly and can quickly rest" replied Nadia.

I also felt bad.

"But no good a guest in told to help Nadia, invite into the runah course.A little more work father and mother finished" added Nadia's father.

"Thank you son, but no need to help, this is done storing things" said Nadia's mother.

"Sorry Mother, father if I have been presumptuous to come here, I really only want to help" said I because it was not good even my heart adored when it was my fault.

"Yes, son, just go back inside the house again, we will both be there soon" said Nadia's mother.

"Come on Aa, let's go home again, just wait there" Nadia asked me.

After I stepped up, I vaguely heard that Nadia's father and mother were arguing.

I was also immediately not feeling good, could it be that they would give me a chance to be Nadia's boyfriend?

Questions that got me down instantly danced in my mind.

I saw my watch, the clock showed at 10 pm, I could have reached home at 12 pm and surely Ummy would have scolded me.

Half an hour later, came Nadia's parents.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Nadia's mother.

"Greetings waalaikum" answered Nadia and I together.

They also sat with us.

The deg! deg! deg!

My heart was rebelling, I had a bad feeling but I was trying to control my feelings.

"Yes sir, I am Aariz Putra Pratama"

I deliberately said my sister's name because Nadia knew me with the figure of Aariz.

"Pratama, seems familiar to my ears"

"Yes sir, maybe you often hear the name Mahendra Pratama, it's my father"

"Your mother Atika" I saw Nadia's mother enthusiastically asking for my mother.

"Yes Ma'am"

"Geez, it turns out you're our best friend's son" Atika's mother said to me in shock and relief.

"Thank God, if my father and mother knew about my parents"

"But I want you to keep our situation a secret" said Mr Nadia.

"For the reason, we can't say it and we hope you understand" Nadia told me.

I wondered who was in front of me, but I was afraid to reveal it.

"All right, go home, son. It's late, we also want to rest" his father Nadia told me.

I actually wanted to ask the names of Nadia's parents, but the question was stuck in my throat and not sticking out of my lips.

"Thank you for giving the opportunity to come to the house of Mr and his mother Nadia, both sir. It's actually not good for me to be here last night. Then I'll go home first. Thanks for the tea"

I also put my hand to salim with them. At first I saw Nadia's father was reluctant to give her hand.But because of the elbow from her mother Nadia finally her father Nadia would give her hand and I immediately salim with a reverence. Similarly to his mother Nadia he immediately handed her hand.

"Nadia, I'll go first yes, In Shaa Allah tomorrow we'll see you again"

"Yes, I'll see you at school"

I just nodded too.

"Assalamu'alaikum"

They answered my greetings in unison.

"Greetings waalaikum"

I inhaled a breath of cold air while heading to my car.

Nadia POV.

"Nadia, you're still in 2nd grade High School, your future is still long. No need to date, mending we focus on learning" said my mother to me.

"But ma'am, Aa Aariz is nice and we're not weird"

"Not that you disagree, you just want you after college and have a new job thinking of dating, I want you to focus on studying and working in the workshop" replied My mother who made me down.

I don't want to argue. I finally agreed on what my mother said.

That means, tomorrow I have to reveal to Aa Aariz if I don't get permission to date.

I understand how Mom feels, our situation is deteriorating making Mom more overprotective of me.

I took a deep breath.

"Well ma'am, I'll just be friends with Aa Aariz alone.we promise not to date, because I know Aa does not want to anger my mother and father"

"Thank God son, you better focus on learning. If you are ready for marriage, mother will not hinder, if indeed you are ready to build a household, mother will do her best for you"

"Thank you ma'am, then Nadia sleeps first, a beautiful dream mom" I said as I kissed my mother's cheeks.

"Beautiful dream, son, mama to mama's room first"

My mother kissed me and lifted the blanket up to my neck and I closed my eyes waiting for a bright tomorrow but not as bright as my heart.

I heard the door was closed, my mother. I tried to sleep but my mind was still awake until 1 o'clock but I could not fall asleep.

I slowly came down and took the water.

I want to complain all my turmoil to the ruler of the universe, Allah SWT, may I be given patience.
