Missing Voice Azhan

Faris' grandfather's trust

The Khanza family mansion

"Akiah."

Aryan's baritone voice echoed loudly in the room. Calling his daughter who was passing by was about to enter his room. The glare of his eyes was sharp as if piercing the heart, but it did not make an Akiia feel afraid or nervous.

With her turn the girl turned and walked towards the sofa when she saw the sign from her papa telling her to sit down. Lazily, the girl slammed her body into the soft sofa.

Akia stared at the cynical face of her father and also the woman beside him, the woman who had been trying to pretend to seek attention from him.

"I don't have much time if you want to tell me something. So I hope you don't waste my time for free." Excited cold.

Mr. Aryan sighed slowly, then looked back at his daughter's face with a sad look.

"Yes, papa wants to convey something important to you. It's about your late grandfather's wish."

Akia scrunched his forehead. " You mean ?"

"Do you remember your grandfather Manaf's best friend ?"

Akia thought hard trying to remember the name fragments in her brain. She smiled when she remembered it.

"Ah, I remember pa, not that he's dead huh. What does this have to do with me ?" He asked for a moment to forget his frustration at the father.

"There is, because it has to do with the wishes of both of them."

"What does papa mean ? Please don't twitch." Ask in an impatient voice.

"Yes, since you were a child, Manaf's grandfather has asked your grandfather to make you his granddaughter's wife. And your grandfather agreed to it, in other words you two have been betrothed to you little." Said Mr. Aryan with a heavy voice.

Akia widened his eyes perfectly. Likewise with Viona, she did not expect that the reason Aryan told her to sit here was just because she wanted to convey the message of her father-in-law.

"No ! I refused it." Said firmly.

"Yes, I beg you this time to obey your grandfather's request. If it's papa who told you to, you have the right to refuse, son. But this is the wish of your late grandfather, do you want to make your late grandfather sad, Sya ?"

Seeing his daughter who was still silent, Aryan dared to continue his words.

"Papa's sure your grandfather's choice is right. The man your grandfather chose must be a good man." Added.

Akia looked at the face of the papa with a meaningful look.

"Have you met the guy ? I mean with the man I'm gonna be betrothed to ?"

"Yes, papa has already met him, and papa is sure he's a very good man. Don't you know if Manaf's grandfather is the owner of the city's famous and best boarding school ? Not only that, Azriel is also a young businessman who is famous for his success at a young age, sometimes he helps his father to teach in pesantren owned by his grandfather."

"Cih, the pompous man turns out." The cynic.

"Yes ! Watch your words, papa please change, son." Said Mr. Aryan with a sad-looking mimic.

Akia grunting.

"When's the meeting ?" When Mr. Aryan smiled happily, one more step he would make his daughter change as before. He was very confident in his plan this time, in his heart he thanked his father for this matchmaking.

"Lusa, they're coming here."

Akia then stood up, then turned around to go to his room.

"Yes, I hope you can behave politely, son."

Akia grunts violently. " Don't set me up ! My own life I have the right to rule it. You don't have to be busy managing my life and how I am. Just arrange for your wife so she can be a better wife." Then he turned back and disappeared behind the walls of the room.

Mr. Aryan could only sigh in length at the behavior of his daughter. Unlike Viona, the woman seemed to stare dislikely at her stepson. Seen once on his face.

I'm not gonna let that damn kid feel happiness. Anyhow I have to derail this match. He murmured in his heart.

***

Mr. Aryan looked a little panicked, occasionally his eyes were staring at the door, hoping that what he was waiting for would soon show up. Sometimes he smiled awkwardly at the guests in front of him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kyai, it looks like my son is a little late." He said in an awkward tone.

"It's okay Mr. Aryan, we and the family are willing to wait for the arrival of Mr. Aryan's daughter." Sahut Abah Ahmad with a calm expression.

Yes, today is the day when two families meet. And Mr. Aryan has warned Akiia not to embarrass him. But it turns out all his efforts did not produce results, proven at this time his daughter who did not show the trunk of his nose.

Meanwhile, Viona seemed to be commenting on a faint smile. The woman felt a little calm, because before she did anything, the damn child by itself was throwing a tantrum. He was sure that after this they would definitely cancel this match.

Although in his heart he was a little happy because he would eventually be with the people he loved, but when he saw Akiia who had changed a lot, a little made his heart still feel worried.

Azriel looked back at her dark face that looked reassuring. Turning towards his umminya who seemed to smile sweetly while rubbing the back of his hand.

"Ummi, Azriel hope you will be ummi and you are not disappointed to see the change in Akia." His words were soft, almost resembling a whisper.

Umm Hana smiled. " Don't worry, ummi and abah already know what and how your future wife is. And wouldn't it be your duty to take him back on the right path, son ?"

"I mean ummi ?" Ask Azriel wonder.

"Pak Aryan has told everything to abah and ummi. And it doesn't dampen our steps to carry out your grandfather's trust." Ummi Hana softly said.

Azriel smiled with relief, now there was nothing else she was worried about. His age is right, no matter what the state of Akiia is, he will still accept it. Wouldn't he be the role model for his wife ?

They still mingle with each other, a little tell about the old story of friendship between Faris' grandfather and Manaf's Grandfather. Until a loud voice broke their conversation.

"I'm home ! Mboookku Iyaa." The screams of Akia calling out to Inem's mbok, were heard breaking into the room.

"Akiah ! Wherever you are from ! Didn't you tell me not to come out. Have you forgotten today's meeting ?" A series of questions made Akia grunt violently.

"Ck, don't yell, I don't t**i."

"Akiah !" Hard impact. He was so ashamed of his guests. Moreover, plus the appearance of Akia who wears open clothes. Tight white short-sleeved t-shirt plus long jeans torn in some parts, especially thighs and hanky.

Abah Ahmad and Umm Hana immediately start to see Akia's appearance, while Azriel immediately turns her face away, reluctant to look at Akia with her open clothes. While Rio was only speechless with the look of his eyes that were peeping towards Akia.

His papa's words immediately made Akia aware if her house is currently having guests. He casually walked towards the sofa then slammed his body a little rough. Not forgetting he crossed his legs in his haughty style. Of course, it made his father very angry.

"Yes ! Take care of your attitude, son. Papa please." He begged his daughter.

Akiia glanced cynically, then changed her position by raising her legs and then sat down cross-legged.

"Ck, I'm just sitting down, why are you so freaked out, Mr Aryan ?" Sneaky.

"At least be polite to our guests. If you don't want to honor your father, at least honor the family of your grandfather's best friend." Said Mr. Aryan lirih.

Hearing the words of his papa, immediately made the look on Akia's face that had been hardened, slowly softened again, then improved his sitting position.

"Sorry." His words softly made the papa sigh in relief.

Azriel shrieked in surprise, feeling strange at the girl's sudden gentle change when Mr. Aryan mentioned her grandfather's name.

"So how is Mr Aryan, can we continue the matchmaking of our child ? But don't forget, even if our parents have already betrothed them, still if the children object, we can't continue this matchmaking." Abah Ahmad.

"I agree Mr. Kyai." Mr. Aryan.

"But what about your family, Mr. Kyai ? I mean, your family is a devout and religious family, and you see for yourself, our daughter..." Viona's chirps that instantly gained the sharp spotlight of Mr. Aryan.

"Viona ! Watch your words." Sizzle Mr. Aryan with a hardened jaw. But as if getting a fresh breeze, Viona increasingly makes the atmosphere more heated by provoking the situation.

"What's my fault ? What I say is the truth. I'm just afraid that their families will be embarrassed by the attitude of our daughter Akiia. I'm scared..."

"SUFFICIENT !!" Shouted Akia with a loud voice while getting up from her seat. It was obvious that a great anger was haunting his mind. His eyes looked around at everyone in front of him.

"See, calm down, son." Persuade Mr. Aryan with a slow and careful heart.

But free, at this time anger is controlling the mind of Akiia.

"I said enough. I'm silent doesn't mean I let someone insult me for free. What's wrong with my clothes ? Because the truth is this is how I am. I am not a hypocrite who wants to look perfect in the eyes of people just to attract the attention of the rich. If you are not happy with my current state, please cancel this matchmaking right now. I will gladly accept it. After all who would want to marry a pretentious person like him. Excuse me." His sarcasm glanced sharply at Azriel.

Without saying anything more, the girl left with the flames of anger inside her. He really felt furious because of the humiliation that was thrown from the mouth of the demonic woman. There was nothing else he wanted to say, right now all he had in mind was to vent the anger in his heart. The goal is only one, the motor racing arena.

But only a few steps did he walk the sound of Azriel's baritone stopping his steps.

"Wait !"

TB
