Love (Not) Owned

Open Card

Dinner was over and we gathered in the living room to continue what had happened earlier.

"have we been Rashid sir ? nothing can be chewed, "His father Malik is now joking to break the silence and welcome their crisp laughter except Malik who did not return to finish eating earlier because he went to his room.

"ahhhh these fathers have eaten and are hungry again how not to get upset" replied the wife of Mr. Herman who invited laughter

"yes the end is silent, while the people who are concerned just do not see the trunk of his nose" said Mr. Rashid back "Buk calls your son if he doesn't look like us - we're old, cold, just waiting for him" he told his wife

Before answering it appeared the person who had been meant by looking innocent and cold like the weather tonight

"you this Malik don't appreciate once we're here, it could be for us to wait for you" his father grumbled

"there was something I was working on" he replied lightly

Do you think he talked to his father, not very polite my gerutuku

"so how's kiddo shofie feeling about Malik?" ask Malik's mother

"excuse me ma'am, as I said earlier this afternoon, I may still have the same feeling as Malik even if only a little but that does not mean I can accept it. There's a heart to be guarded by ma'am"

"do you mean guarding your heart do you have a choice of heart so ?

"sorry mom, I can't answer this"

I looked at the faces of these mothers who were disappointed with my answer while the fathers were only beards, and Malik clearly hardened his jaw as a sign of his disappointment.

"did you accept Hendra shof's proposal ?" ask Abah who surprised me

while Malik's parents just frown and look at each other do not know.

"has anyone proposed to Shofie before Mr Rashid ?"

"Already Mr. Herman, the man was his college friend while in Makassar but shofie did not accept it on the grounds that he did not want to get married and only consider him a friend no more"

why should Abah tell me that I am ashamed, God

"shofie now I'm asking you, even if you only have a little feeling for Malik are you willing to accept him as your husband ?" his mother who just touched me shocked me

How could his mother ask instead of his son directly.

I forgot he asked that a few times

"i need some time ma'am" I replied lowered my head

"when is shofie ? Malik's been waiting for you for too long, he's always taken care of his heart, even though there were other women before but he's never put his heart on her in the least"

"give me a moment when I have an answer I will tell my mother"

Amazingly he never broke his heart once, but many times he will remain the same, I think after that his feelings are different but it turns out to be the same.

What's wrong if I have to rethink all this ? I also have to make sure my heart is complete before accepting it.

For some reason all night is very difficult to close your eyes, this very cold air is really a friend staying up tonight, tonight,

I took my feet out of the room to make warm tea and I found Malik's father different in the kitchen sitting alone.

"ah son shofie just surprised, this om can not sleep so for tea you want ?

"by om, thanks"

"so you go to Makassar and choose not to come back here from that Malik has started to change" om Herman began his story.

"I don't know how many times he begged for help om and wife om to ask where you were at that time but your parents can not tell because all this is your will so we can not doing nothing, he always said he regretted why he had to find another heart so quickly and he always wanted to see it"

for a moment he sipped his tea until it ran aground

"sometimes he dreams of meeting you until he is so afraid that even he is more silent as necessary if he asks for a lecture outside while calming his mind and heart, during his lecture with the same woman named Yunda, it did not change him at all like before, even he was getting colder, his emotions like to explode uncontrollably sometimes just remember you he's scared that's why we took him to a psychiatrist when he was in college but he didn't heed him eating only two years ago he tried come alone to the acquaintance psychiatrist of your friend and Alhamdulillah little by little the trauma began to disappear, moreover, he has been more excited since meeting nak shofie again and the doctor also said a lot of progress eating om ama wife om will do anything for it" he said happily

"om sorry shofie already made him into a kayak gini"

"kok you are sorry do not need la indeed the basis of his son aja sok sure am other options do not know him in staying so aja uda waver"

Thank God one side I'm happy if his parents don't blame me but on the other side my heart still blames myself

"wahh it seems like someone is talking to me" the voice of malik came his hand immediately pulled the chair in front of me

"you're just a surprise" his father said

"are Fathers and future father-in-laws trying to encourage their own children ? pantes I have trouble sleeping"

At the flick of Malik's ear until he complained of pain "to-be ghost prospective ghost is he uda accept your application ? well, this kid, no one wants to be the same kid that his father likes to hang"

"Dad don't make me ashamed in front of shofie dong can go down my reputation as CEO"

"haaaaaa let him know who Malik is if in the gini house is not the same as he looks on the outside"

It turns out like Tom Jerry's behavior Father Son, can make me laugh giggling see it

"what about at home is she ?"

"this is how he is, especially if his sister has returned here can-can the house kayak ship broke for them, for them, looks cold and arrogance is indeed innate he tried uda at home uda kayak chicks keilangan mother clingak clinguk even ni ya nak shofie since met you always aja confide about your meeting like ABG's son only until his mother's earache heard the story "

"Dad this is how you even open the card"

"let me go back to the room first and you Malik don't do anything shofie "

After his father left, it was just me and Malik who were here feeling awkward.

"don't listen to his words "

"hemm I'm back first"

my steps stopped when my hand was pulled by Malik

"i hope you give me another chance "

I kept walking without seeing it
