OJO NGONO MAS

APPROVES

This afternoon Sri sat limply in a bamboo hut in the middle of a stretch of rice fields that are still green. Her brain thought hard looking for a way to thwart her engagement to a man from the city.

His mother said the man was well-established, rich, and also handsome. But that didn't make him the least tempted. Sri still aspires to work in the company. Or become a PNS employee, or at least work in an office.

But his heart is getting worse. When the work is not done. It's hard to find a job now. Moreover, only capitalize on S1 diploma with no work experience and no insiders.

And now, he must be faced with the burden of a proposal with a person he does not know at all. This proposal should be intended for his eldest sister, Mbak Lastri. But because Lastri was married and had children, the proposal was aimed at him.

Dewi Sri is a twenty-three year old girl. Just graduated S1 economics. The youngest of three children. Both of his sisters are married. Only he is still busy looking for work.

The people closest to him prefer to call him Sri. because it is accustomed from the habits of his mother. Sri now only has her mother and her father died two years ago.

A month ago, there was a father looking for their home address. And finally met his mother. How happy his mother was to come to the guest, he said an old acquaintance of his mother.

Sri cuek only. Not too responding to the arrival of a guest whose name is Frans. That's what Sri heard when she called him.

Until the night Sri was stunned to hear the mother accepted Frans to propose to Sri for her only child.

Obviously Sri mencak-cak not because. Rejecting the proposal that has already been accepted by his mother. His mother said, his father had been bound by the promise with Frans from a long time ago. So now it is Sri's turn to fulfill the promise of her father and Frans.

"Ojo ngono loh bune. Sri is still working. Sri hasn't married a buneeee.."

"Bune wes look at your candidate Sri. wonge ngguuaanntenng!"

"Pokokae Sri ora Sudi. Sri ora kepengen seng. Sri pengen kerjo bune"

"taydreamshaaahh.. Yo kiko kerjo mu Yo neng kitchen too. Wes ojo ngeyel. bune wes terimo application"

If her mother had said that, Sri could only lower her head. Fighting is also free. There will be her mother even perform acting crying more.

Sri is getting weaker if she remembers her mother's words. Can't do much.

"Sriii..."

From the side, Nunik can be seen running small in the fields. Sri just saw it empty. Nunik seemed to be moving closer to him.

Nunik was Sri's friend from childhood. Always play together, school together, until college together. Nunik who always accompany Sri when likes and sorrows.

"Your sister called me Sri" said Nunik as soon as he reached the hut with a bad breath.

"Say what?" ask Sri.

"muleh. bune mu cry"

Sri is silent. Face grim. Her mother was crying because she had not come home from this morning.

"I'm males tenan loh, Nik"

"Ojo ndumeh Sri's. Lekas muleh's. Ntar bune mu semaput loh" Nunik nudged Sri's arm.

"you changed me Nik"

"Opo tooohh. wes let's go quickly"

Nunik pulled Sri's hand to immediately go home. Sri cannot refuse. According to the pull of Nunik's hand went down the swamp of rice fields.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Arriving at home, Sri parked her motorbike. Accompanied by Nunik, so Sri can give an excuse.

Welas greeted Sri with an anxious face. Not yet Sri opened the helmet from his head, Welas immediately pulled Sri's hand a bit hard. Blow him into the house. Sri is just resigned.

They stopped in the middle room. His mother lay weak and crying. The elderly woman who always wore cloth and kebaya, and her conditional hair was sobbing sadly. With his first brother Lastri.

"Tuh. look bune. He's stuck because of you. Sana apologizes" said Welas while pushing Sri's body closer to her mother.

Sri advanced forward due to the encouragement of Welas. But only dared to stand straight beside the sofa where his mother was lying.

"Bune" called Sri to Warti, her mother.

Warti. Still sobbing sad. Tears were breaking on his old cheek.

"You have Sri" said Warti lirih.

Hearing that, Sri's heart is like a solid hand that is invisible. He's not the heart. But he just does not accept if you have to get married before work.

Sri fell down on the floor. lowered her head and sobbed sadly.

"Sorry bune. Sri only kepengen kerjo ndisek" said Sri lirih. bowed in not daring to look at his mother.

"It's not about that, son. But your father once received the promise of Frans to marry his daughter to Frans. bune Wedi loh Sriii.ntar pakne mu in sued Karo Gusti Allah" Warti explained what had happened all along.

Sri looked up at her mother and then turned to look at her eldest sister.

"Janjine kano Karo mbak Lastri. Why should Sri replace it?" Sri is still trying to negotiate.

"laahh. mbak kan wes wedikah, Sri... Ojo Eden nopo" said Lastri.

"Sri, your candidate is bullshitting. Ora nyesel Sri" Welas also chimed in.

Sri fenggut sebal glanced at Welas.his second sister was also not on his side at all.

"Wes toh Sri's. Ojo ngeyel. Bune just wants you to redeem your father's promise as Frans" said Warti again.

Sri was just silent.looking at the three women in front of her with a sour face.

"Yo wes, Sri will" said Sri finally.

"Naaaahhh. You're i'm ayu"

Warti immediately knelt in front of Sri and hugged her youngest daughter with immeasurable joy. Sri was silent.

"Yo wes, Kono. manganese sek Karo mbak mu"

Sri got up to her feet but did not head for the kitchen, but went to her room. Nunik just looked at her concernedly.

Sri the jolly girl is now a quiet girl. This week Sri always complained to Nunik that he was not ready to get married. But what can Nunik do other than say Sri has to be patient.

Sri threw her body on the bed. looked back at the ceiling of her room. He did not know the man, he never spoke at all. Never seen how the shape of his prospective fiancee.

When his mother wanted to show him a picture of the man, Sri refused. Just letting the photo lie on the dining table, without any intention of glancing at the item for a moment.

Sri does not know what will happen to her later after marriage.it must be very foreign to live with a man who is not known at all.

"hhahhh.. Sriy..."

Sri sighed heavily. Full of thoughts in his heart. But can only resign for the promise of his father first. Perhaps it was fate that he had to fulfill that promise. Married a foreign man who does not yet know his character and character.
