Marry Siri

CHAPTERS 16. Mak's Advice

Nadia went into the room and immediately lay down next to Mak who had fallen asleep on the bed.

His mind is far away.

Nadia forgot her purpose of the kitchen earlier to take drinking water.

His thirst disappeared instantly when he found the Young Master in the kitchen alone.

"YES ALLAH... What am I supposed to do?? Now I have officially the status of wife of Mr. Cik.. I got married at the age of 18.. And I married a man who was 30 years old.. Yes ALLAH.. Am I really married??!" The whispers of Nadia's heart still do not believe in the marriage agreement that has taken place this afternoon.

"Not.this is not a marriage.it is just an attempt to return the goodwill of this family to me. After all, I and Mr. Cik have agreed that there will be no things that we do not want between the two of us. Mr. Cik has also promised to continue to finance my life until I finish college and get a better job. We will not interfere with each other's privacy. No one knows about this marriage. I can definitely get a man who can love me what he is. And I'll be able to make my dream wedding come true someday. Aami.. The spirit of Diaaaah!!!" she screamed again in her heart and closed her eyes trying to sleep.

"Diah.. Wake up. it's dawn.. Why are you sleeping here? you should have slept upstairs.. In your husband's room. The first night I even slept next to Mak..??! You are now legally married to Rafiq.. You should serve her like a wife serves her husband. In our religion, a wife is obligated to obey her husband. Serving every need of the husband so that the rewards and blessings of marriage flow in the household that is built. Mak doesn't want you to be a bad wife to your husband. Understand, your marriage is not in love.. But Mak sure, every thing that happens is a destiny that has been set by ALLAH SWT. And it was ALLAH who made Mr. Rafiq your husband. And your duty as a wife who sholeha has been started from since ijab kabul in sah right...!! Understand?!?" mak advised Nadia at length.

Diah nods a sign of understanding then cries in Mak's arms.

Mak's advice made Diah realize how much responsibility she now has as the wife of Mr. Rafiq.

Marriage is not a game.

Nadia felt very guilty for playing with something that should have been so sacred and only happened once in her life.

Nadia could not imagine how Mak would react knowing the marriage agreement she had made with Mr. Rafiq before deciding to do the marriage of this series.

"Astagfirulah.. Give Me your guidance, O ALLAH.. Forgive my guilt, O ALLAH, " said Nadia closing her prayer.

After dawn prayers, Nadia heads to the kitchen and finds Old Mak and Bik Sari having a warm conversation with Mak and Bang Sugi's wife.

"He should have made breakfast for Mr. Rafiq.. It's not Old Man anymore.. For it is Diah who should serve Mr. Rafiq the husband of Diah!" mak said again advising Diah.

"Well Mak.." answered Diah briefly and took a tray of coffee and bread for the Young Master, then brought him to the front desk to serve.

Mr. Rafiq went down and sat down to taste the coffee presented on the table without greeting Nadia in the least.

"Where's it?" ask her later.

"In the kitchen" answered Nadia briefly.

Nadia also obeyed the order of Mr. Rafiq and rushed to call Mak who was cool to tell with Old Mak.

"Rafiq call Mak?" ask Mak then to Mr. Rafiq who is now his son-in-law.

"Let's Mak have breakfast together." replied Mr. Rafiq very politely.

Mak sits next to Nadia following her daughter-in-law's invitation to have breakfast together.

"I'm sorry, Mom.. Since Mak came here yesterday, only today can Rafiq really say hello to Mak. Rafiq's schedule is very solid Mak.. Sometimes it is not enough time to get all the work done. Once again Rafiq apologizes, Mak..!?" said Mr. Rafiq again to his mother-in-law.

"Not what.. You understand very well.. Thank you for receiving my mom well. My mom is coming back to the village today at 10. Mak hopes that with the presence of Diah, now the wife of Rafiq can help ease the burden of Rafiq so much. May Diah be the wife of sholeha to Rafiq ya.. !! Mak tipped Diah ya son.. Diah is too young.. So maybe sometimes he's very spoiled.. But believe.. She taught him to always be mature and independent. Mak pray that you guys are happy." Mak said praying for Nadia's relationship with Mr. Rafiq.

"Aamiya.. Thanks Mak.. God willing if there is a time Rafiq will play in the village with Nadia" said the Young Master again in-laws.

Mak smiled happily at his daughter-in-law's words.

While Nadia was just speechless listening to the warm ongoing conversation between the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law.

After breakfast, Mr. Rafiq said goodbye to work and said goodbye to his mother-in-law who will return home.

"Diah between Pak Cik in the future first yes Mak" Nadia told her Mak.

Mak also allowed.

"Pak Cik does not need to make false promises with Mak to visit the village.. She doesn't want you to expect the impossible to happen..!!" nadia said later when they lived together in the car garage.

"I'm just trying to be polite and friendly.Is that wrong?" ask Mr. Rafiq with some emotion.

"Be polite is not wrong.. But making false promises is not true.. Diah hope next time Mr. Cik does not need to make false promises again with Mak..!!" said Nadia with a tone that is no less high than the words of Mr. Rafiq earlier.

After saying that, Nadia immediately went back inside the house leaving Mr. Rafiq whose reddened face held back anger.

"How dare that little boy yell at me!! Watch out for Nadia..!!" said grumbling.
