Desy walked closer to Huda and the rest of the family, where they were ready to eat the food, Desy was still silent, he only smiled at a glance in response to Huda's smile that was deliberately aimed at him.
"Sorry Nak Huda, the menu is very simple" said Ms. Desy.
"It's okay, ma'am, I'm not the picky type of food" Huda replied.
"Let's eat something, please!" Desy's father allowed Huda and the others to start eating the dishes.
Desy is used to eating with Huda at the boarding school, but eating with Huda and his other family feels so different.
"All this is Desy's favorite menu," said Desy's mother on the sidelines of her meal.
"Well, ma'am" said Huda.
"Yes, Nak Huda, Desy can eat many times if Mom cooks this menu," Desy's mother told me again.
"It seems I will also like this menu later," said Huda while Desy who was the topic of conversation can only be silent without a word, he would rather spend what he had picked up on the plate than chiming in on the chatter that was happening.
The breakfast with corn rice menu and aurap-leaf cassava complete with salted fish was finally finished as well. Now Desy and Huda are sitting on the porch of the house after the father and his sister Desy say goodbye to go to the rice fields and school.
"Mas Huda tumben early in the morning was already here," Desy's first remark rang out in Huda's ears, she smiled sweetly at Desy after hearing his question.
"Actually, I came to take you to meet the designer who takes care of our wedding clothes, and I've already asked Father and Mother for permission," Huda explained his purpose of arriving early in the morning.
"Wedding clothes, when will the wedding be held?" desy asked confused, because he did not know the wedding plan said by Huda, even he only knew if he was engaged yesterday.
"As planned, I will justify you next week" replied Huda.
"What's? next week? isn't this too fast? I just found out yesterday that we're engaged, and I still have some things I want to do before I get married" Desy said, he really felt surprised and confused as to what kind of behavior, between happy and sad, Desy's current feelings were mixed.
"I've been waiting for that one week for a year, Desy, and I've been preparing one since a year ago, right now I just have to wait a week to make the wedding planned, he said, aren't you happy about this wedding?" Huda explained everything that happened and how he felt.
"It's not because I'm not happy, but I still want to do something to help my family" Desy said.
"You take it easy Desy, Nak Huda has been helping our family for the past year, even he also helps our family economy," mother's voice that had just come out of the house with a plate of fried cassava in her hand echoed Desy's speech that she heard.
"What do you mean by mother?" ask Desy.
"Sir Huda, gave Mother her own ration when sending you even the kitchen needs and Vina was also helped by it," Mother told me what had happened.
"Desy, I'm married to you, that means your family is also my family, what I gave to your sister and your parents as well I gave to my sister and my parents, and what I give you is the same, so you don't have to think anything" Huda said.
"Where's Mas Huda's sister? why haven't I seen her?" asked Desy who had never met Huda's sister until now.
"My sister is in college in Egypt, she can not go home, even on my wedding day, later if the time comes you will definitely introduce her," replied Huda dispel the curiosity of the Candidate wife.
"But, isn't this all too much?" asked Desy who felt that what Huda did was too excessive.
"There's nothing superfluous, Desy, I gave the same thing to your family that I gave to my family, so everything is still natural" Huda tried to convince Desy that everything was still natural.
"Not think much! we better go to the boutique how?" keep Huda.
"In the first meal of the cassava, son," said Desy's mother who now also sat in the chair.
"Eat first cassava Mas Huda, after that we leave," Desy who saw the sincerity of the mother also told Huda to eat fried cassava that had been prepared by the mother.
Huda obeyed what Desy said, although Huda actually disliked cassava but he still ate what was provided for him, just like the corn rice he had eaten, actually Huda did not like corn rice, not because he was pretentious of the city or underestimated the food, but Huda's stomach was always bloated every time he finished eating it.
"Let's go!" take Huda after eating a few pieces of fried cassava on the table and see Erwin has arrived with the car that Huda had told the contents of the tire.
"Wait a minute! I'll get the bag first." Prevent Desy from getting into the house to pick up some of the things she needs.
After picking up the bag, Desy breezed into the car to the boutique where Huda had ordered the wedding dress she was going to wear.
Desy really looks beautiful and graceful with a white dress that is so fitting on her body, the size given by Huda's future in-laws at that time was right, but something else happened, Huda who forced himself to eat corn rice now has to go back and forth to the bathroom to relieve his stomach that feels grand.
"Mas Huda why?" desy asked after she finished trying on the dress, because her big belly made Huda could not see Desy wearing the dress she chose herself.
"Actually, I can't eat corn rice, my stomach is always troubled every time I eat it" Huda replied.
"If you can't eat why did Mas Huda eat it?" sahut Desy's.
"I ate it because Mom prepared it, I can't refuse the parents' gifts" Huda said.
"Other times if you can't eat it's better to say, than like this, that hurts Mas Huda too," said Desy.
