Happy Reading All🌾's
Five days later ....
Dara blinked her eyes slowly, adjusting the light that entered into her retina when she heard the azan reverberating from the mosque which was not far from her home. He glanced at the clock that was stuck to the wall. It turned out to be half five.
Dara got up from her sleep, went into the bathroom to fetch water. After finishing his ablution, he stepped towards his wardrobe to take the prayer mat from inside.
The woman held her alphabet on the floor and began to carry out her duties as a Muslim. After saying her greeting, Dara raised her hand in front of her chest, praying to the Almighty Who has created herself as well as the entire universe and its contents.
“Yes Allah, show the servant that the truth is true. Make it easy for the servant to make this decision. O Allah, these two choices are very difficult for the servant to choose one of them. I am confused, O God. What should I do? Give the servant guidance, O Allah. O Allah, may the servant's decision this time not harm anyone, whether servant, Stevan, or any party, aamiin yes rabbal alamin.”
Dara rubbed both of her palms to the face. He took off his face, folded it, and put it back in the closet. His feet stepped out of his room, approaching his sister and mother who were already struggling in the kitchen.
“Eh Dara's. Here, Honey. Why is your face so tangled, Dar?” shira asked looking at her youngest child who was already beside her.
“Because it's okay, Ma,” says Dara. His hand took over the knife from his mother and continued his mother's work of cutting broccoli.
“Why you, Dek?” Now it's Dira's turn to ask while patting her sister's shoulder gently.
Dara just shook her head without even answering.
“Not good, Dar. Early in the morning was pouting. You should welcome your day with a smile, so that your day is also more colorful. Although we do not know what will happen today,” said Dira smiled sincerely towards Dara.
Dara nodded back while cutting the carrot. I don't feel the time has shown at six in the morning less than ten minutes.
“Two to room first, Ma, Brother. Want to take a shower first,” say goodbye to Dara and then leave Shira and Dira who are arranging food on the dining table.
In less than thirty minutes, Dara had completed her bathing routine as well as getting dressed. Currently Dara uses a gray skirt combined with a baby pink sweater and her gray sneaker which was purchased a few days ago.
Dara stood in front of her dressing table, picked up the powder, rubbed it on her face then polished the lipbalm on her lips. After feeling enough, Dara took a bag of several books from the study table. He came out of the room, approached his family at the dinner table.
“From!” call Arya when Dara has just sat on the bench at the dinner table.
Dara looked towards her papa.
“Iya, Pa. Why?”
“Prepare yourself later tonight,” said Arya.
“What's the matter, Pa?” dara asked, not understanding what her papa meant.
“Later tonight we will have dinner together with the family of your future husband. So, you just get ready, half-seven o'clock should be done. Because we have to get there at seven,” Arya explained.
Uhuk-uhuk-uhuk!
Shira who saw Dara choking while drinking milk reflex patted Dara's back slowly.
“Slow-slow, Honey, drink it!” shira sat next to Dara.
“That fast, Pa?” dara protest did not accept.
“Faster is better. Papa, I told you before. A week ago instead.”
Dara just nodded weakly, refusing even felt very unlikely. Remembering his strict papa. Maybe if Dara refuses, she'll be locked up in a barn for a year, ah kidding. Arya can't be that cruel to her youngest child.
Not wanting to hear any more matchmaking problems for now, Dara got up from her seat, choosing to say goodbye to her family.
“From leaving first, Ma, Pa, Kak.”
Again Dara nodded then walked away, out of the house to go to the campus. Though he will only have material later at eight and now the new clock shows at half-seven. That meant he had to wait another hour and a half on campus.
Huh, but it's okay. It was much better, than listening to her papa who was always talking about matchmaking when Dara was beside her.
Dara immediately drove her car to the campus. Splitting the streets are almost crowded, fortunately at this time there is no traffic jam so it does not take long he has arrived at the campus.
Dara grabbed her phone that was in the bag. At the moment, Dara is still in the car and is already in the parking lot.
^^^Va, have you left?^^^
Dara typed a message to Eva. It didn't take long for Eva to type the answer.
Yeah, I'm in the cafeteria with Alden
^^^Lo has left?^^^
^^^Yes, I just arrived, now I am still in the parking lot^^^
Lo lose to follow us
Our material is still an hour away
^^^If I go there^^

Dara just reads a message from Eva and puts her phone back in the bag. He got out of his car, walked to the cafeteria and approached his two best friends there.
“Why else lo, any more problems?” alden asked when he saw Dara's face that looked very tangled.
“You guys on know, no?”
“Yes don't know, you haven't told me the same. Yes no, Al?” ask Eva.
Alden nodded in agreement to Eva's words.
“Kata bokap me, later tonight I have to get ready,” said Dara lethargic.
“Where is it?”
“Later tonight my family will have dinner with the family, eum, that's who. Anyway family of a friend papa's son who wants to be fooled by me,” explained Dara then rubbed his face rough.
“How to?” asked Eva, feeling so concerned about the compassion that befell her beautiful friend.
“You don't want me to follow me.”
“Keep lo will mutusin Stevan and accept this matchmaking? Or you will refuse this matchmaking and continue with Stevan?” ask Alden long.
“Gue confused, Al. I'm afraid my choice will disappoint someone,” replied Dara frustratedly.
“According to your heart. Whatever your decision, we will both always support you. We will always be near lo, both lo hard and happy.” Alden nodded, hearing Eva's solution for Dara.
“But you better be happy anyway, so we don't need to follow hard,” continued Eva who made Alden reflexes pinching Eva's forehead hard.
