My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Approaches

Today Aleta had prepared from 09:00, because she promised to accompany Ferdinand to find books in Shopping. Seeing the neat Aleta, Miss Rosna approached her foster child.

"Where are you going, she said today there is no college, why have my son dressed up pretty." asked Miss Rosna.

"You look for your book in Shopping, it's just like that,"

"Who's up, Haris?"

"Not Ma'am, same brother Ferdinand Aleta's friend on campus."

"Daughter?"

"Oh my God, not Mom. Aleta doesn't have a boyfriend, we're just friends."

"If Haris is how,"

"His father Ma'am, same sister Haris, Aleta also considered him a friend, no more Ma'am. How strange mother, tumben-dumbenanya-nanya girlfriend problems."

"There's nothing, kid, it's natural for a girl your age to have a boyfriend."

"But Aleta doesn't want to date Mom."

"Not no, but not going out yet, right,"

"Aleta wants to get married tomorrow without going out. Fear of falling, sin."

"That means tomorrow Aleta wants to, like a mother who is looking for a future husband," said Ms. Rosna full of investigation.

"Inshaa Allah wants Ma'am, because Aleta believes in motherhood. It's impossible, I'm going to knock Aleta out. Mum's male choice must be the best" Aleta said smilingly as she embraced Ms. Rosna.

"Because Aleta does not want to date, then Aleta must start to keep a good distance with nak Haris and son Ferdinand. Mom was worried, they both harbored special feelings for Aleta" Ms. Rosna softly advised Aleta.

"But we're just friends, ma'am, anyway they're happy to help Aleta."

"Yes, I know son. But Aleta has to be careful and always take care of herself. I'm also worried that Haris and Ferdinand's son could misunderstand me, sparking a conflict,"

"Trus how ma'am, Aleta already promised Ferdinand's brother today, if Aleta need to cancel."

"Can't seem so, if it's already a promise yes must be kept. Mom says next time be more careful.'

"Well Mom, Aleta loves you" Aleta said as she gave a kiss on her foster mother's cheek.

The sound of a car engine entering the courtyard, then stopped. Ferdinand got out of the car with two bags of crackles on his right and left hand. Seeing Aleta and her foster mother were talking in agility, Ferdinand smiled as he approached them.

"Good morning, Miss Rosna, Aleta" he said, greeting Ms. Rosna and Aleta.

"Good morning, little Ferdi, so go with Aleta,"

"Yes Ma'am, and this is nitip for the younger brothers yes Ma'am," Ferdinand handed the crackle that contained Snack to the children.

"Thank you, son of Ferdi, may Allah multiply the fortune of Ferdi."

"Aamiin ma'am, we can leave now Ms. Rosna. The noon hunt, because Aleta said at 13:30 must have reached home again."

"Yes please son, be careful on the road yeah,"

"Thank you, ma'am,"

Aleta and Ferdinand then salute and kiss Miss Rosna's hand.

"Assynolt,"

"Wa Alaikum salam,"

"Cape it, yes" asked Ferdinand.

"Lumayan kak, ache all my legs, but fun anyway.he.., "Aleta replied.

"Yes, I saw his picky spirit."

"It's cheap, brother, pretty good to come here. Reading books in the parlors for younger siblings are already read, so this is added so they like to read,"

One of the things that Ferdinand liked about Aleta was her loving nature, when girls his age chose glamorous looks, her hedonism remained in modesty. If Aleta has the excess windfall, the thing to think about is how to make her family happy in the orphanage.

"Sister, it's one o'clock, turn yuk. At two o'clock Aleta must be accompanied by study brothers. Brother Ferdinand also promised that today he would accompany Aleta" said Aleta.

"Yes, yes, I remember. Yuk, now just turn it around." Ferdinand takes Aleta home, and Ferdinand unwittingly grabs Aleta's hand, then takes her out.

Aleta was willing to pull her hand back, but seeing Ferdinand's indifferent expression she finally undoed her intentions. After opening the door of Aleta's car, Ferdinand walked around and immediately sat behind the steering wheel.

"Aleta .., if you're going along with Ferdi, no one is angry" asked Ferdinand.

"Anged, yes not. I was already very good with my mother. If he allows it, he won't be angry."

"Sister means not mother, but someone else. Other men may." Ferdinand tried to extract the information from Aleta.

"He.he.., the men in the parlour are still children all older. As long as Aleta's on time to get home they won't worry."

Ferdinand scratched his head that was not itchy, confused to pry the heart of the woman beside him. But in his heart, Ferdinand felt a little relieved that no other male was currently close to Aleta.

"Some time ago, I've seen Aleta being escorted to college. Who he is, and whether he also lives in a parlor."

"But be Haris, yes. Kak Haris is a very good person, brother, now just interned at Bank Indonesia. He studied at UGM majoring in Management already last semester."

"Aleta is close to him" Ferdinand asked with a stifling annoyance.

"Yes near. Her parents, Mr. Haris, often buy out my biscuits in the morning."

"He sells in the market, and Haris likes to help too" Aleta said innocently, without her realizing that every word of praise for Haris hurt the man on the side.

"You guys are dating?" asked Ferdinand suddenly.

"Dating??? How about today's theme question for Aleta dating ya."

"So morning mother also asked if Aleta with sister Haris dating, also asked if the same brother Ferdi also dating. Now Ferdi's sister is also nanya, is Aleta the same Haris dating."

"He..he. means brother and sister sehati donk. Lha answered how," Ferdi was anxious to see Aleta's behavior.

"Sister Haris, Brother Ferdi, the sisters of the orphanage are the same brother. All Aleta considered as brothers."

"Aleta doesn't want to date, she wants to get married later."

"That means if anyone proposes to Aleta, it's accepted."

"It's up to you, sister, because Aleta is sure that you won't knock Aleta out. Whoever the male chosen by the mother, Inshaa Allah Aleta will receive it." Aleta replied as without burden.

"If, for example, Brother Ferdi proposed to Aleta whether it would also be accepted." angled Ferdinand.

"It's up to the mother, but Ferdi's brother wants to marry Aleta, he.he." to the question, Ferdinand is speechless.

"Meaning the next approach I have to get close to Rosna's mother's heart.I have to steal the start before Haris shoots first." Ferdinand smiled getting a new strategy of approaching his royal girl.
