Love Sheila

S2 Tells Mom

Ten o'clock in the morning, Sonia's grandmother's funeral was over. Sonia was still squatting beside Suci while embracing and calming her mother who was still crying beside the grave of her mother, Sonia's grandmother.

While Sean, Sendy, and Dennis are also some residents are still cleaning their bodies from the remnants of the land that was attached after they had just finished helping to bury the corpse of the late grandmother.

One by one the residents said goodbye and left the cemetery area. Sonia, Suci, Sendy, Dennis, and Sean.

"Mom, yuk, we're home. Sonia's sister and Sean's brother haven't rested at all since they came at dawn" Sendy said, trying to persuade his mother.

The saint was a little surprised. That's what Sendy said. Finally, the Saint nodded his head slowly. Sonia helped her mother to stand up. The five of them slowly left the burial area. Sonia and Sendy help Suci walk by embracing her on her right and left. Sean and Dennis tailed behind them.

Arriving at home, there are still some relatives and neighbors who are helping to clean up and prepare for the event later tonight.

Sean was so amazed to see how the residents were carrying royong and helping each other. The sense of unity and solidarity between them is still so high. Something that is hard to find in a big city.

"Sonia, where's your mother?" a mother asked Sonia who was washing her hands at the well with Sean.

"There was in Budhe's room, resting," replied Sonia.

It was fortunate that Sean had known in advance about Sonia's true identity. If it was not possible at this time Sean would be very surprised because everyone called Ana by the name of Sonia.

"Sonia, you take your mother to eat first. This morning she had not eaten anything at all. And you, your brothers, and his wife, too. You and your friends have not eaten since dawn. The food is already inside" the mother said.

Yes, for a while Sean was only introduced as Sonia's friend. Of course Sean and Sonia have not been able to tell their true relationship.

"Good budhe," replied Sonia.

"Budhe same others go home first huh. Later in the afternoon we return again, preparing for his tahlilan event."

"Yes budhe. Thanks a lot, yeah."

"Yes nduk, same."

After the residents say goodbye and return home, Sonia persuades Suci to eat together. With great difficulty finally Sonia managed to persuade her mother. After finishing eating,

"Just take a break first. From Semalem kan Mas has not slept anymore. I can rest in my room" said Sonia.

"You have to rest too, not just. You haven't slept yet, have you from Semalem?" reply Sean.

"Yes Mas. Let me rest in Mom's room."

Seeing his daughter's interaction with the young man who he said was only his friend, Suci actually already felt suspicious there was something between the two of them. But the Saints chose to be silent first.

In the evening after praying isya' tahlilan event was held. Alhamdulillaah everything went smoothly until the show was over.

After the tahlilan event is over and all the neighbors are ready to go home, Sean asks Sonia to gather her mother and her two sisters in the living room.

"Mom, I'm sorry, but there's something I need to talk to my mom, Sendy, and Dennis, too" Sean said.

"What's up with Sean?" ask Sacred.

Sonia who sat to the Sacred left was so nervous. Sonia lowered her head with both hands that were crushing the tip of her hijab. Sean took a deep breath and said bismillah in his heart.

"Mother, actually me and Sonia were married, exactly one week ago."

Saints, Sendy, and Dennis were so shocked to hear the words of Sean. Sean then recounted all of his events from beginning to end.

"We're sorry ma'am, it's not our intention to hide everything from mom, but we really need some time to tell you all this. Because as you know, everything was so sudden and shocking" Sean said.

"So that night? The night when mom suddenly woke up and had a dream about brother?" holy asked Sonia after being silent for quite a while.

"Yes ma'am" replied Sonia.

"Then what now? I mean, wasn't that night you were just married in series?" ask Sacred.

"We've agreed to file a marriage certificate to legalize our marriage. And I've asked my secretary to take care of it as soon as possible" Sean replied.

"Mother, I really hope, mother is willing to give mother's blessing to both of us," Sean continued to ask for Holy's blessing.

"What about Sean's family?" ask the Saints before answering Sean's request for blessing.

"My father knew everything, and he gave us his blessing. For my mother and my two sisters, my father said we could come after our marriage proposal was approved and we got the marriage certificate officially."

"And is it that Sean's son is sure that Sean's mother and two younger siblings will be able to receive Sonia well?" ask the Saints again.

Sean smiled, understanding Sacred's concern as a mother who worried about her daughter's happiness.

"I'm very sure they will definitely accept Sonia well Mom. Because Mother and my two sisters, they already knew Sonia first. Even long before I knew Sonia," replied Sean riddled.

"What do you mean Sean?" holy Tanya was confused.

"Mother, Mas Sean is Safa's first brother. Mother Sheila's son and Steven's father," not Sean but Sonia answered.

"Oh, my gosh," Holy said as he covered his mouth with both palms in surprise.

"At first, I didn't even realize that Sonia was my sister Safa's best friend that we had been looking for. Because at that time Sonia used her middle name. I only realized everything after Dad told me about it" Sean explained.

"God's plan is completely unexpected" said the Holy One.

"Yes, mom's right. But I firmly believe that God's plan will never go wrong. Because honestly, from the beginning Sonia has managed to steal my attention, since we first met in my office musholla," said Sean.

Sacred smiled hearing all Sean's words.

"What about brother?" holy Question turned to Sonia.

"Sister accepted all this as the destiny of Allah SWT for sister Ma'am. And you will try to carry out your duties as a wife as well as possible" replied Sonia.

"alright. If indeed you two have agreed to undergo your marriage, then mother can only give mother's blessing as a parent. I bless your marriage. And I pray that the marriage of you two will always be in the Ridho Allah SWT. May happiness always be with you both" sincere Holy do'a to Sean and Sonia.

Sean and Sonia smiled happily at the Sacred words.

"Sean promises mom, Sean will always try to make Sonia Bu happy. Sean will look after and protect Sonia as best he can" Sean promised.

"Mom believes in Sean. Mom titip Sonia yes. Please guide her to be a good wife. And I also ask Sean to be able to forgive if Sonia makes a mistake. Because you realize that this mother's daughter is far from perfect" the Holy Message.

"No man is perfect, ma'am. I also have a lot of shortcomings. Pray for us, Mom. Hopefully we can together improve ourselves and live our household well" Sean asked.

"definitely. Do'a mother always accompanies the steps of the two of you," said Suci.

"Mother" Sonia cried with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Saints then embraced Sonia with great affection.

"Hey, what is this? My sister is now a wife. Still crying and spoiled same mother kayak gini. Not ashamed of my husband?" holy Goda.

"Ibuuuuu,," whined Sonia by lengthening the word.

Saints, Sendy, and Dennis chuckled at Sonia's passing. Sean smiled slightly, for the first time seeing the side of Sonia who was so spoiled to her mother.
