It was a tiring day I finally took. Where Mom asked me to get married.
Hais...
I'm really not good at weighing feelings, because he's the only one I have.
Mom was a single parent after Dad died. He educated and raised me despite the distance between us, Indonesia and America.
"Daughter, remember your age, son! and the most important thing is to remember the age of mothers who are more than puberty now!" exclaims Mother with a voice that begins to rise. It feels like I want to break my eardrum. Mother really made my sense of hearing goosebumps in horror.
The sound was so loud that the neighbors heard our conversation.
Sorry I stopped by mom's house. I thought I could eat well as expected, but apparently all I swallowed was a scolding. Really fucking!
"Yes, yeah. It's also still a while waiting for a mate, ma'am!" I'm a little lazy. I really don't like this topic. It made me want to go home quickly to the apartment. Then then, then,
Plaque!
Mom hit my arm pretty hard.
Be present. Once a mother hit her own daughter. It feels painful. Hix, hyx, hyx. Inner me crying.
"Do you think that soul mate can come by itself? hence search! search it!"
Ha's?
Did I not hear wrong? mom told me to find a mate? do you think I'm an easy woman who easily looks for a soul mate on the side of the road?
Shouldn't a woman be waiting in Lamar? not even applying.
Hais. I also want to answer fear in hitting again. I had to say it so that my mother would shut up.
"Yes, yeah. Ntar Princess find."
"If I need to display a billboard in front of this house that says, 'Who is looking for a soul mate'," I replied while holding back furious.
The vow! if anyone else had said that, I would have boiled his saliva and told him to drink again. But baby, my own mother who spoke, made me speak a thousand languages.
"Diet, bi. Just like my friend named Paijo. Guaranteed a happy world hereafter!" This time Reina spoke. He had just come to make milk for his two and a half year old son.
"Well, right said Reina, Princess. You're the same as Paijo." This is again Mother, support. It was as if he had seen Paijo before.
Reina too! why did he suddenly offer his friend named Paijo that? just make ilfil.
Uh, speaking of Paijo, is the Paijo I know the same as Paijonya Reina?
Ah, it must be different. Is there only one Paijo name in the world?
But speaking of that Paijo Londo, is he even willing to help me design my hospital? marni said, she is quite good at work. The most important thing is to be responsible and on time.
Tomorrow he told me to come at 09:00 in the morning. I have an operation schedule. Well, how's this?
"Hey! why daydreaming? are you interested in Paijo, Reina's friend?" asked the mother who made me realize from my daydream about Paijo.
Paijou... Paijou. You made me look like an ijo nut peeling off her skin. It's so heart-busting.
"Who is daydreaming? The princess is just thinking about the construction of my hospital in town B" I replied while thinking.
Plaque!
Another hard slap landed pretty on my innocent arm. This time it was not just a slap, but with the gaze of the Mother Earth. Hi. serem...
"Hospital! the hospital!"
"Think about that hospital! and ignore the household!" This time, she was really pressuring me to get married.
The face with those slight wrinkles, now turned into a wistful one. Makes me more pity.
"Mother, forgive the Princess who has not been able to fulfill Mother's request." Then I took off the small, fragile body and turned to look at her lovingly.
"Mother, marriage is not a race, ma'am. Daughter knows, that envious mother looks at the son of a friend of the mother who recently married is not it?"
Recently a friend's daughter married. And that's where mom got another incitement from her friends, making mom again provoked to force me to marry.
He said, "Your daughter's daughter is not married yet? he is old. Haha."
What a shitty mom! I want to tear their mouths with a paste of sambal. Let nyaho you guys!
"Mom, if only I wanted, a lot of people who are interested in the Princess, but here the Princess must learn to be responsible to herself first, then the same husband. The construction of the hospital was not for me to make as a benchmark for the success of the Princess, but as a practice field of the Princess for people who cannot afford it" I explained a little lie.
Want to know where my lies lie?
Yep! in that part of the sentence, which I said a lot of people were interested in me. But actually it's a narrative of doang. No one has been interested in me so far. I don't know what my lack is.
Beautiful yes, what success again. But how come no one is interested? hehe.
"But Princess. You also have to remember the age of the mother who is no longer young, son," said the mother.
I honestly feel sorry for Mom. He really wanted to see me married. But what power, soul mate never come.
"Mom, that age is not determined by the marriage of his children. Is there any guarantee, when the Princess marries later the mother will die soon? didn't you? it's all in God's hands, ma'am," I explained once again.
It is also difficult to make mothers understand the thoughts of young people today?
If it used to be important already puberty and smart cooking can already be married or married through matchmaking. But now his days have changed. Success is the main. That's what I think.
"Grandmother, what aunt said has a point too. Marriage is not a race. And can't it be an aunt looking for her own soul mate? But the soul mate himself will come to this house and propose this beautiful grandmother's son." This time Reina spoke up for me.
Hais... Your praise is Rei, Rei. I want to give you gold jewels in return. You really saved me this time from Mom's request.
Then I saw my mother's face turn into sadness, but resigned.
"Yes already then. You guys take care of everything. I just wait for the good news. May God not take your life a few minutes later."
He's?
Is mom desperate now? how does that sound, serem?
"Mom, mom. How is it rich anyway? The princess is getting married, ma'am. But the same is the right person. Do you want to see me suffer inner birth for marrying an irresponsible man?" I pretended to put on a sad face so that mom would feel sorry for me.
While Reina seemed to be holding back laughter, because she knew my actions were seducing mother.
"Yes, yeah. This time I agree with your opinion. But next month you'll still have to get married. The point! no comma!" Then Mother left me with her triumphant smile.
Ha's?
Is mom kidding? he said he was waiting for the good news. How is it now like coercion?
It turns out that mother's speech can't be trusted either. Mother of false hope!
Instantly I felt my fate apes. It turns out that fighting the first lady will never work.
Then Reina whispered to me, "Sama Paijo, bi."
Ngek???
