Married for Marriage (Haris And Hana)
Chapter 3: Haris's Decision
Almost three weeks Haris has been performing prayers istikharah but his heart is still filled with doubt and anxiety. He really cannot decide. She also kept pushing him. The middle-aged woman who exuded firmness was also inclined towards the choice of Hajj Zakaria. This further complicates his intention to propose to Arini.
Haris took his gawai. In the midst of the chaos in his heart, he tried to invite Arini to meet.
“Rin, I want to talk to you about something important, that's why I asked you to meet” Haris to open a conversation. They met at Cafe A.
“Yes, what do you want to say? Do you want to discuss our marriage?" Arini's eyes twinkled. He thought his meeting with Haris this time was to discuss the matter of preparing for their wedding which was only a few months away. Rarely can they meet like this, this time Haris took the time to meet Arini on the sidelines of his lunch break.
Haris smiled wryly.
“Sorry Rin, actually..”.
"Yes?" Arini waits for what Haris will say.
“Sorry, apparently...
"It looks like I can't continue with our wedding plans. I can't marry you. I'm really sorry. ” With great regret Haris has to deliver this. This decision was chosen with the previous he had yet to find a bright spot.
“This is really hard for you, but it seems like we are not destined to marry” Haris closed his eyes. Cute lips.
"A.. Whahuh? How does that mean, Mom?! " Arini failed to digest Haris' words.
"It is with great regret that I cannot marry you, Rin" Haris repeated his sentence while lowering his face.
“Why is that so mas? Why did you report this so suddenly? Arini began to tremble, her eyes seemed to glaze over before she could shine.
“Mas joking right? Why would you joke like this? You're not gonna play me, are you?" Arini felt like something was piercing her heart right into her heart.
"Mas doesn't want to be like this either, Rin. I was forced to do this, but I better not have to defend myself either, because it's my fault and I can't keep my promise to you, though only 2 months ago mas began to discuss our wedding plans" Haris said this with tears, actually he was also hurt.
“Then marry me mas, please! Please, I don't want to hear any reason” this time Arini really cried.
“You'll find a better man than I am" Haris says this with the same heart he hurt.
“Rin, sorry..”.
In the end Haris could only say sorry.
“But why mas? Why?” Arini starts sobbing sedan.
“Haji Zakaria, the foster father who raised me and made me what I am now, I have told you about him, asked me to marry his friend's son, they have also talked about this, he said, I don't want to disappoint him”
“But you let me down easily!” Arini.
“If I have a choice Rin, please understand my position”
Arini stood up, she was about to leave the room. Cry broke. He was crying bitterly.
“Rin, wait!" Haris is trying to catch up with Arini, no matter how well they have to solve this problem. But he failed because he had to pay bills for drinks they ordered to the waiter cafe.
Arini really did not expect Haris would have the heart to do this to him, even though they did not have any ties, but he had already hoped more on the young man, it is inevitable that he had fallen in love with him. This unilateral decision really hurt him. During this time Haris did keep a distance from Arini to avoid slander, but he had convinced his heart to propose the woman, so he expressed his desire, and the dipper was welcomed, Arini turns out to approve this plan, he has fallen for the obedient young man, who keeps his eyes and is a hard worker.
This problem is not finished easily, Arini is obviously angry and Haris also can not control his own feelings, he is sad with his decision, but maybe this is the best, he hopes by obeying his mother, he said, Allah will be pleased with him.

“Gua should how Wan?” Haris visits his best friend Ridwan after finishing his office work.
“Easy, you just marry the two girls Ris” replied Ridwan diplomatically.
“Ha? Lu crazy, cave never thought to have two wives Wan”.
“Well, for now you can already think about it, so that no one is hurt and disappointed” replied Ridwan lightly.
“Ga is as easy as Wan, not necessarily all parties agree, cave also can not have two wives”.
“Haris Haris, people have one wife only hard, you already have two girls in front

“Wan, cave ga kidding!?” Harris started to get emotional
“Sorry, okay okay.. Now we talk seriously”.
“Haha sorry, okay, hmh gini, if according to the cave, you have to be firm Ris, you have to follow how your heart says, because the heart can not be forced, because the heart can not be forced, how can you marry someone you don't love, who has fallen instead zhalim” Ridwan tried to be wise.
Haris breathed a rough breath.
“Actually the cave has canceled our wedding plans, the cave met ma Arini”
“What the F*ck! Astaghfirullah, cave guess doi must be angry” Ridwan got up and then approached towards Haris.
“Yes obviously, then what should I try? You think the cave isn't suffering? FRUSTAS”. Haris scratched his non-itchy head.
“hahaha”.
“Keep what's your next move?"
“Ke hajj house Zakaria and announce this result”
“Good, Lu must be firm, and whatever it is the cave wishes the best to lu” Ridwan pat Haris' shoulder.
“Thanks, cave behind ya” Haris is about to rise to go home.
“Hurry very, dah gojekin cave food for us, you are very bad, come here if you are happy

The clock has shown at 12:15 in the morning. This time Haris came home so late. As always. He came home alone, upon arrival in the yard, looked mother who had been waiting in front of the terrace, he sat wearing a house shirt with a simple veil. Seen a look of anxiety on his shady face.
“Where have you been, son? Home this late does not give news, mom called repeatedly you do not lift”
“Sorry Haris did not give news, earlier Haris met Arini and stopped for a while to his apartment Ridwan bu, Haris mobile phone suddenly lowbate, forgot to bring powerbank” Haris explained while embracing mother entering their house.
“Ya. Eat first, mom heat the side dish for a while while waiting for you to take a bath”
Mother and Haris went into the house.
“Do not heat again, Haris has eaten, earlier Ridwan entertained Haris in his apartment. Oh yes mom, next time mom don't wait for Haris outside, just wait inside, outside cold, later mom even catch wind” Haris worried about her mother's health.
“Your khawarir mother why-why, I'm worried you don't tell”
“Once again Haris apologizes, tomorrow insya Allah Haris will inform mother” Mother nodded.
After taking a bath Haris met his mother in the family room, conveying about his decision and how he had met Arini. He sat next to the mother who was reading a book with her plus glasses.
“May you decide the best, son!”
“Arini angry bu”
“Low, mother will also be angry, but this is also not your fault, before the yellow janur curved, you are still not a legitimate partner. You and Arini are also not a pair of lovers”
“But I am also sad mom, honestly I am very expecting Arini” Haris
"Why don't you marry her? Let's talk about this with Hajj Zakaria, he will understand son.” Mother does not want her son to be sad.
“mom doesn't wish you anything but the best for your life, mom just wants you Happy” mom finally wipes out, mommy, mother also did not have the heart to see her son who had been obedient to parents but in the end his life was not happy.
“Do you really agree? Mother nodded her eyes at Haris with a sincere smile.
"Thank you so much for your understanding. Well mom, tomorrow we will go to the house of Haji Zakaria, thank you mom for understanding I” Haris hugged her mother haru. Emerging a new spirit in his heart, really mother's support is very meaningful and Ridha's mother is everything. If Hajj Zakaria had known this, he would have re-released this good news to Arini.
Rabbi, give all kindness and blessings, guide your servant in Your way, give good guidance on all the problems we face, said Haris in his heart.
