“So like this. Directly yes.” Yuda put a jewelry box on the table and pushed slowly forward saying, “this is for you, Rum. I want to marry you. Are you willing to be a wife as well as a connecting mother for my son Harum.”
Harum was flabbergasted by what Judah had just said. He looked at Judah with a question mark. “Ma-What do you mean, Mas?”
“Maybe what I said just surprised you. But what I said was a seriousness. I really want to marry you,” Yuda said staring at Harum without blinking.
The fragrance was still mute. He doesn't know what to say.
“Not to be answered now. You can think first. Maybe a week, maybe a month,” Yuda said next.
“That's the jewelry for you. Want later your answer is to accept or reject my proposal, it is still for you. If you accept, please use. If you refuse, please save. Consider it a gift from me. As my gratitude to you for taking good care of my daughter. In fact, you are not just taking care of, but educating my daughter. There are many things I might not be able to teach my daughter, and you teach them well. Harum, my daughter grew up to be a good child one of them thanks to you too,” said Yuda at length.
“In the jewelry box I also include the receipt of the purchase. If your choice is to reject my application, you can sell the jewelry if one day you need it.”
“Yes already, that's all I want to talk about. I'm sorry.” Judah stood up and left Harum still flabbergasted by the surprise of his proposal.
Yuda swung a step towards his room with a raging mind. However, his heart was relieved that it had managed to express its desire to marry Harum directly. Bu Yusma and his daughter Harum— were not informed of the proposal. If Harum accepts his proposal, he will tell his mother and daughter. So was Yuda's plan.
“Mas Yuda, his books have been me pincing all. Anything else I have to do, Mas?” asked Bu Inah as soon as he passed with Yuda who was about to enter his room.
“Nothing, Bi. Thanks though. Bibi can return home now,” said Yuda who had deliberately kept Bi Inah in his house so that he could freely submit his application to Harum.
Arriving at the room, Yuda leaned his back on the head of the bed. His eyes were straight on the big picture frame of his wedding with Ranum. Yuda looks handsome with a gray groom suit and Ranum who wears a modern white wedding dress looks very beautiful. Both seem very harmonious.
Then Yuda's gaze turned to the side of the wall to the right, staring one by one at the photo of his memories with Ranum. Starting from the moment they first dated, fiancee, married, until the pregnancy Ranum. Yuda really likes to capture every moment of togetherness with the beloved woman at every level of their relationship.
According to Yuda, all traces of memories that will later arouse the love of both when love may recede. However, his love for Ranum and Ranum's love for him never subsided until now. Yuda is sure, in the realm of immortality, Ranum still always loves him.
Yuda put the organizer book back into the drawer. Perhaps starting tonight, he will reduce the memory of Ranum and focus on his future plans.
After that, Judah laid down his body ready to knit the lonely nights that had been six years in his life.
“Honey, I miss,” Yeh before closing her eyes. Hoping tonight, he could meet his Ranum even though it was only in a dream. "Tell me, Honey, was my decision to propose to her right?

It was fragrant staring at the nanar of the jewelry box lying on top of the mattress nearby. Really he did not expect that the handsome young doctor Yuda-dan established had just proposed to him. There was no wind, no drizzle, no lightning and lightning, and Judah flushed it with rain. Yuda's proposal was like a sudden downpour with no drizzling signal as a sign.
Honestly Harum since long ago had admired the handsome doctor with the kind one child. However, the admiration is just like a worker to his boss, or a sister to his brother.
In the hidden heart space, the name of Hangga was still etched sweetly along with her memories. Although he was aware and did not want to return to the man who had been running him religiously. To Harum, the Hanges belonged to Nata. And he would not be able to return to the man he had loved so long ago.
For two years Harum tried hard to forget Hangga, but the stronger he tried to forget, the more difficult it was to release the feeling of love that had been rooted too deep.
And now, there was Judah who expressed his desire to marry her. Is marrying Judah the path she must choose in order to forget the Hanges and throw away all her memories?

Sorry up a little. And not so important part of it. The important thing up, let the NT system smell. 🤭
Harum is still confused as to what to answer. Accepted what is not the application?
(Padahan who was confused it Mak Othor his 😭)
