direct phone connection was broken unilaterally by their grandmother. Not usually her grandmother behaved like that. at least her grandmother slalu asked first why? what's the matter?. But this time there's something a little strange, that's what El thought.
El became upset, his head getting dizzy, ka massaged his nasal pankal to find a way out.
"i'd rather be the same afifah, than the same febby. she's a bar-bar woman and not good.ifah she can I set. even.. aaaahhhhh" El felt so dizzy he ruffled his hair
while on the other hand, their grandmother was laughing with Sanjaya, her only child.
"San still can't believe the buk, if El is rejected by the village girl."
"hahaha.you don't tell anyone. watch out yeah" threatened their grandmother
"yes buk, take it easy. mom is right too. she must be a good girl.if she is a matre girl, she must have accepted El immediately"
"you just prepare for the application El. uniform as well. I also make. beware that your wife does not make it for me" sewot grandma eka
"yes my dear mother" Sanjaya hugged her old mother, she felt very anxious, her four mothers were nagging because of his wife.even though it was clear lastri was not there

at 3 pm El was getting ready to go back to his house, but when he was in the car about to start the car engine, he heard some people were gossiping outside. of course gossiping about her and her affifa. El stepped on the gas pedal, he wanted to get home immediately and rethink his life that was so very complicated.
"yes, go home"
"the house is clean dock, the water is also ready in the bathroom.just I have not cooked"
"yes takpapa bi, just go" replied El softly
"all right, I'm sorry doc. Thank you" pamit bu sugiati.
El also entered the house.his current goal is only the bathroom.he wants to immediately refresh his body.
El soaked in a bathtub filled with soap foam he looked at the bathroom ceiling, while continuing to think what to do. now there is no more backrest, he said, his only confiding friends are grandma eka and byan.but it is impossible El told all of her to byan, he was embarrassed if he had to say if the afifah refused him.
after bathing, El immediately took out his new big motorbike until a few days ago.he headed to the Haji pack shop. at the Haji El pack store also took eggs and milk. then take it to the cashier.
"Doctor's son" said Haji
"yes, Haji sir. how? can't you cut down on the sugar?" El chatted with Haji sir
"my doctor's son, I'm drinking tea with a little sugar"
"Hemm. next week the time for control is yes Pak Haji. just be careful if his blood is added" Canda El.
"hehehehe. yes, doctor.but by the way when mbak afifah her in halalin" goda pak Haji
deg... El snarled, Haji then went out and pulled him a plastic chair near the cashier "sit down"
like hypnotized, El was directly sitting next to Haji.
"son of El, alhamrhum his father used to leave Hajj with me. Their family is a good family. There has never been a case like this."
"don't make her wait so there's more gossip that makes her mom sick too son. if you're serious. marry her soon"
El remained silent
"he used to be very cheerful, polite, friendly boy, there was no man who did not want to be with him. However, since that incident he changed except for me. he'd have me think like my own son if I had an unmarried son I wouldn't have thought I'd take a son-in-law"
"pity her son, trust me she's a good girl.I dare to vouch for her"
"i know the afifah may refuse to marry because it still wants to focus on its mother.she told me herself like that"
"come to her mother, ask her. I guarantee her mother immediately accepts you"

now El is at his house, in front of him there is a plate with white rice and 2 boiled eggs, and boiled carrots, then a glass of milk.
El still remembered the words of Mr. Haji. he thought of all his. El wanted to end his life so complicated.
on the other hand, the afifah is sitting with his mother and sister watching television.that is their activity after prayers and dinner.
"Fah.. Are you really dating doctor el?" ask zainab
"no ma'am, it's just gossip" replied the afifah without turning his gaze away from the television screen.
"mbak, is it true that you've never been in the field of mas adi?"
"yes, at that time El doctor helped mbak. maybe that's why people think mbak courtship with doctor El" replied afifah, this time he looked at Zakir with confidence and his answer was not a lie.
