My neighbor Duren (Cool Young)

16. Proposal preparation

Radit sat on his car bench with his eyes still watching the Garuda High School area. The figure he was waiting for had not even come out of the gate. Radit, tired of sitting in the car, got out and sat on the hood of his car.

Wearing light blue shirt and pants dongker color material. Some buttons on the top he opened a little. While his long arms he rolled limited to the elbow. Radit's appearance is even more stunning with black glasses perched on his nose.

Well, Radit is very handsome with such a style. Age mature by forties. With a body awake. Mature sapodilla skin. Anyone who saw it would instantly melt.

Anisa, the mother with one daughter already snorted annoyed when she saw Radit who was already in front of her school gate. Not because of what, the presence of Radit is so striking and the center of attention of people around him. Anisa is not happy there are rumors circulating especially about her. He would be tired of asking questions about who the guy who came to Garuda school was.

The charm of Radit even made Garuda High School students scream hysterically. No doubt, they so boldly teased the handsome man who was sitting on the hood of his luxurious car.

"Om, wait for us, om?" seductive girls are fascinated with Radit's good looks. Radit smiled only thinly. Letting the girls look at him with satisfaction.

Anisa's figure had already appeared in front of the gate. Radit developed his smile, looking at the woman he was waiting for standing with a bent face.

" Go in !" Without further ado Radit opened his car and asked Anisa to get in the car immediately. Radit was actually feeling uncomfortable being the center of attention in front of the school gate.

Without much resistance, Anisa immediately followed Radit's orders. Not because he gave up. Anisa just wanted to speed up the uncomfortable situation in front of the gate. The girls who praised Muji Radit, made her ears hot.

Radit started the engine of his car then started stepping on the gas. Sometimes Radit saw Anisa who was still with her wrinkled face.

"You should be happy, Nisa. Your future husband's coming to pick you up"

"Apaan sih mas, prospective husband, prospective husband continues. Disa's not having a fever, is she?"

Radit looked at Anisa. In his heart he complained, to this day Anisa still could not be conquered. He still does not want to acknowledge Radit's existence. Radit just grunted.

"Nice soon"

Anisa just looked at Radit who could still smile sweetly. Even though he was not very friendly. Maybe even sucks.

"This is not the way to our house, ma'am"

"Did you say ?" Radit showed his ugly face.

"This is not the direction of our home" Anisa repeated again.

"Our house? Amiylin"

"What the hell is mas? no kidding, you"

"Once, come along. No need to protest. Mother asked me to bring you here"

"Seriously, mas?"

"If you don't believe me, ask me now"

"Not necessary"

Their car stopped in front of a luxurious boutique.

"What are we doing here?"

"Give me a minute, Nis "

"Don't take it long, soon I have a child tutoring schedule"

"Yes, not for long. You are angry and there is not much protest. Thirty minutes is over"

Radit steps followed by Anisa. Anisa accidentally searches for a walking position behind Radit's body. Radit felt like he was walking with the office staff rather than the wife-to-be. They look stiff and foreign. But Radit didn't mind it, which matters today's affairs, should be done soon.

A middle-aged woman with an ayu and graceful look had already picked them up. Radit looked so familiar to her. They chatted for a while then The boutique owner's woman greeted Anisa.

"Mas Radit, is this the candidate?"

"Yes, Aunt. Pray, yeah. I can take him to the undercover" Radit pointed at Anisa who was still standing behind him.

"No one refuses to marry Radit. Already dirty, handsome, kind and Sholeh" Aunt Aya continued to praise Radit without pause.

Anisa did not care, she knocked the tip of her shoes on the floor, her eyes were cool to observe the dress that was displayed neatly on the display.

"I measure first yes, mas Radit "Aante Aya began to act with a meter in his hand. A boutique clerk noted the size mentioned by Aunt Aya.

"It's Beautiful, Auntie measure first" Aya told Anisa after finishing with Radit.

"I, Tan?" Anisa looks confused. He glanced at Radit who was staring at him.

"Yes"

"Kok I follow the measure?" Anisa looks protested at Radit.

" Want to get home soon, won't you?" Radit chuckles .There is an emphasis on the word our house. "follow the direction of Aunt Aya" continued Radit again.

Although reluctant, finally Anisa followed Aunt Aya to be taken size.

"Beauty, do not be the same as the prospective husband, Radit is a thousand and one tablets. He is kind, loyal and sholeh. Which attracted him a lot. Is it not dear ?" Aunt Aya's Advice to Anisa.

"Tante could be, we're just neighbors, Tan. She's not a husband candidate "

" Hadeh, Beautiful. You are the same, only a thousand and one models are rich in gini" Aunt Aya looks anxious at Anisa

"I'm normal, Auntie. But if he is one thousand. Cheap right, Tan? Two thousand gets two" Anisa's like getting a joke idea for Radit. While Radit has begun to be upset with Anisa's silliness.

" Yes ..iya, May tomorrow last, yes. Aunty prayed" Seeing Radit's facial expression, Aunt Aya ended her conversation with Anisa.

Aunt Aya is a boutique owner as well as a famous kebaya designer. The Wijaya family entrusted their fashion needs in this boutique from the past.

"Tante, is my order shirt ready?" Ask Radit

"Aunty has prepared, just calm down "Aunty Aya gave two paper bags to Radit.

"Tante is indeed, the best" Radit said as he gave the card to the boutique cashier

" All of us say yes, auntie "

"yes, heart, greetings to Mama Arin"

"Let's aunt" Anisa said as she stood up and followed Radit's step out of the boutique

Radit opens the car door for Anisa. After Anisa enters, she turns around the car and immediately enters.

"Are we going home or are we going to eat?"

"Back, mom. I have a tutoring schedule with the kids in a minute''

"Yes, just eat at your house. I've missed mom's cooking too"

"Just yesterday, the mas ate at my house. The time is already the same mother's cooking?"

"Soalnya kangen also the same one who has a house" Radit chuckled

Anisa immediately put on an annoyed face. The more here, Radit gets used to saying the word dreadlocks. Makes Anisa goosebumps. Maybe Radit's one of the playboy cap frogs.

"Why is your face so rich ? Don't like me gombalin ?"

Until the front of Anisa's house, Radit's car stopped. Radit has turned around to open the car door but Anisa has already come out.

"Nisa, this brings in "Radit holds out a paper bag to Anisa

"This is for me mas?"

"Yes, a gift for you for being so kind as to take me to the boutique"

"Don't use a gift show, ma'am. I don't want to. I had to too"

"Bought it, nis. I have time to wear it, anyway? That's a woman''s shirt''

Anisa laughs amusedly, imagining Radit wearing a woman's shirt.

" You're laughing, am I ?"

" Gak mas "Anisa shook her head while still holding back her laughter

" I go home to the office first, yeah "

" Mas Disa ..., he wants to eat? how about going, busy again?"

" Oh, really, can I ?"

"Can, just want with a potluck side dish"

"But with a load"

" What's a ?"

"Eat her in your company, yes. I can't eat alone''

"It's only a child's wealth" Anisa opens the door to her house followed by Radit.

Alea had already welcomed Anisa and Radit

"Mother, papi "Alea asked Salim with a smile

''Lea again what ?" Say Anisa and Radit together .

" Make another picture, mother, look !" Alea showed me the picture. Alea inherited the drawing talent from Fatah who was an architect. Radit and Anisa also praised Alea's good drawings.

"Mother in first, yes, want to prepare lunch for om Radit"

"Bapi, mother ! No, um" Alea said

" Yes, it's up to Lea" Anisa said. He was reluctant to see Radit who was getting older because he had managed to incite Alea to call papi.

Radit and Alea continued drawing in the living room while Anisa headed to the dining room preparing lunch for Radit.

"Mas is ready, lunch first "

"Yes" Radit left lea

Anisa keeps her promise to accompany Radit to lunch

"Nisa, I'm asking my housekeeper Grace to stand guard in this house. You don't throw him out. I won't let my guard down until Fatah can come to this house again and harass you"

"There is no need to bother so, mas" said Anisa is not happy.

Mother approached Radit while carrying cobek. He put the sambal tempe that he just finished making.

"Taste, this. I used to love Radit, if I made sambal tempeh" Radit immediately chuckled. The memory goes back to a few years ago. The menu that she often asked for was that of Ms. Ratna while living together.

"Thank you, Mom. Must be nice to be rich first"

"Yes, son Radit. I'm sorry, I'm so troublesome for Radit. And Mr. Grace must also get extra work"

"No ma'am, take care of my house. Nothing is bothered at all" said Radit while scooping again sambal tempeh until not rested.

After finishing eating, Radit told me to go back to the office. There are still some unfinished office matters.

Mother sat in front of Anisa, looking closely at her only daughter. I haven't been able to convey Radit's request to Anisa.

"Mom wants to talk about something, Nis.

Tomorrow night, Radit's parents will come to this house ''

" What's wrong, ma'am?''

"They're gonna ask you to be Radit's wife"

" mrs .....Nisa's not ready for...."

"This time the mother asks, accept their good intentions Nisa"

"Mr ..."

" There's no reason for you to refuse Radit. He's a good man, there's no shortage of him "

" But Miss .."

" If you do, you don't love Radit. Learn accepting. As long as you try, it won't be hard to love Radit. He's a loving man. And one more thing, the decision of the mother is round and can not be bargained again. If you still want to see Mom in this house. Give me mother's request !"

Anisa's looking down can't argue. This time, my mother was very strict with him. All this time, she always supported whatever she wanted.

Mother left Anisa still pondering. "I'm sorry mom, Nisa, all mom did to protect you. I trust Radit. He is the right person to take care of you and care for you. My mother knows their family very well. They'll accept you as well as Leah" that's in mom's mind.

***

Arini and Wijaya are preparing to go to Bu Ratna's place . Finally, their eldest son wants to marry again. Radit had many times they had betrothed some women but all of them Radit refused. And this time, Radit himself asked.

" Ma, papa's been tidy yet ?" Wijaya said to his wife.

" It's pa, it's good looking at the maximum "mama babble while laughing.

"Finally this one papa's son will have another wife. Papa shaves, Radit chooses Nisa. He's not someone else for us, is he, ma? Arif and Ratna, they are good and simple people. Radit would be perfectly accompanied by their daughter"

"Rubber, pa. Radit finally managed to conquer Anisa too"

"Descendants of who used to be, ma. Wijaya.unyielding when you are in love. A stubborn mom can't take it"

"Different, pa. Papa didn't conquer mama. But maksa..." Arini protest

"Ma, Radit seems impatient. He's called papa many times "

Mr. Wijaya showed me his phone. There were dozens of missed calls from Radit. Ms. Arini laughed out loud with the behavior of her son Radit.

The car moves to Anisa's residence. Until the front gate of Radit's house the car stopped and gave news if it had arrived. Radit already looks handsome with a formal dress. So too with Ara. The little girl also looks charming.

They went down and walked to Anisa's house, which was next to Radit's house. Radit's face is tense. He prayed, that Ms. Ratna might convince Anisa. Chests rumbling. Although this is not the first for Radit, but this is more stressful than jumping free from the height of the mountain.
