Love (Not) Owned

Hendra Prov

Of the many women I know I am so interested in Shofie, the simple woman I have known since starting college in Semarang. During our walking time which was often gathered for college assignments and campus organizations also grew the seeds of love, only I was not with a shofie.

All I heard from Sila was that her roommate she used to love people but her love clapped one hand and since then she's kind of shut her heart shut.

As much as possible if he needs help I immediately help him, other than because I want to approach him I also can not see my friend is in trouble.

Thankful that she was conscious and willing to open her heart.

Once I met his family while delivering duties to his Indekosnya. At that moment I saw him wriggling on his mother's arm spoiled, ahh adorable she was like that.

All I know is that during college here he never even returned home, it was his family who always came here.

When I finished the trial I intended to propose to him because his parents were here that day. But seeing the happy look I pare my intention so as not to damage the atmosphere at that time.

After a few days, I strengthened my resolve to convey my point.

That morning I told her I was going to her senses.

I saw the look on his confused face upon my arrival, he was like looking for someone.

Yes exactly, he thinks I came here with the others. He really takes care of his marwah. That's why I'm sure she's the best to be my wife.

"him alone hen?"

"yes shof"

"the same train of children, what need does hen need ? oiya sorry yes we're here I don't feel good if you go in" while pulling a chair to the terrace.

"yes, no papa shof relaxed, but my heart is uda ketar ketir

after a stale talk and no more chatter

"shof" he caught a glimpse of me and then turned his face away again

"i want to ask you something, you have a husband ?" I asked him to round his eyes

"cock suddenly so much that hen, just a few days we finished graduation, I think belom for marriage in the near future. besides I still have something I target"

"Shof so I mean to come here to propose to you, if indeed you are not ready for marriage gapapa I am ready to wait"

He was shocked to hear me propose to him

"you're no longer prank me, are you hen ?"

"i'm serious my face looks like a joke"

He was silent while looking up as if looking for answers in the sky, I slowly saw his eyes dewy at some thought

"Hen, you've been very kind and I thank you for that, but for your request I'm not ready. I don't have any plans to get married even if I have a candidate"

"marriage is not just a union of two hearts but a union of two people who have different minds. Married is the longest worship so to step there requires a mature readiness both from the established mental readiness and our condition, after marriage is also not the end of the goal of marriage itself but the beginning is still early" said Shofie who made me stunned

True marriage is the longest worship not only uniting two human beings but two families as well.

Before I came home, he reminded me of one thing

Finally the opportunity to meet Shofie again there, my colleague who was in Medan invited to meet in his city.

I can't wait to see each other because we've been back to our homes two years after graduation.

That day arrived armed with the Share lock sent by dawn I immediately finished this job immediately.

Approaching noon I was in his hometown, it was not difficult to find his house because his family was quite reluctant in this village.

After arriving I was greeted by a middle-aged woman who was none other than her shofie mother because her facial lines were exactly the same.

It turns out that my arrival was already told to his parents. They seemed ready to welcome me.

The sound of a motorbike entering the yard sounded indicating he had returned home. I was in a hurry to make my appearance.

He hasn't changed, he's the same as the first time we met. His face looked even more shady even though he looked tired.

This house is so warm, visible from the arrangement of his furniture. The hospitality of his parents was no less warm.

When I was about to go through the living room I saw some photos of the shofie brothers whose faces were all similar until I was confused which one he was.

Fortunately I quickly understood, with his shag teeth I already knew it was him.

I who received the opening invitation of his booth did not waste any time.

I did not expect from selling Frozen food he could open his own store. I'm sure to be at this point is not easy especially when I remember when I was both in college in addition to teaching him to also sell after the lecture hours were over.

Really tough woman.

I got into my vehicle into the parking lot I looked around and saw a lot of people inside.

I know she likes white roses and I don't forget to buy them as congratulations.

When I entered the booth, I rolled my eyes looking for the figure of Shofie who became a star today.

My arrival did not escape the astonished gazes of the guests, who would have guessed that I was someone close to him. Yeah, hopefully Aamiin

When I was enjoying the pentol along with his brother-in-law, I suddenly heard whispers about the arrival of a man named Malik.

My eyes waited for the figure to come inside and he entered along with the woman I was expecting his mother.

His face looked cold, not sure of his attitude.

I, who also noticed Shofie, immediately strangely saw the change in look on his face.

Or maybe it was this man who made him close his heart until now.

Afraid that it was too late, I finally told Shofie and his family to get to the airport.

With one of them I headed for the car by the shofie making the man named Malik not stop looking at me, his sharp gaze as if hinting jealousy.

I promise in my heart, before the yellow janur curls it never hurts to try despite the distance that it stretches.

All God has prepared our lives trying, whether he is my soul mate or not that is an important back problem first.
