Promise And Knit Asa
52. asking for answers
The atmosphere of the room of one of the hospitals was silent. Only Sarah's sobbing sounded faint.
" Now, I ask for a bang Dya answer. You refuse or accept me? " ask Sarah.
" I need some time, Sar? " answer Dya.
" Are you still doubting I'm really willing for you to be polygamous? whether or not you want permission from Nera. I will keep forcing. May you marry me! " isak Sarah is flirting.
Rudi who had seen what Sarah was doing was fed up. Rudi passed and walked out of the room by closing the door in annoyance.
" jeblaaag".
Now only Hasan, Dya, Salim and Sarah are in the room.
Seeing what Sarah did to Dya, Kiai Hasan acted.
" Dya, you like it? " ask kiai Hasan.
" Just like it, just like your friends" replied Dya quickly.
" Well, after marriage love and love will appear together? " ask Sarah lirih.
Dya started to frown his forehead irritated.
" Why do you still insist on marrying me? and I never knew you? " ask Dya emotion.
" Are you alone with your wife betrothed? how is it different from me offering myself, bang Dya? " ask Sarah again with tears.
Dya swallowed his saliva full of annoyance towards Sarah.
" What kind of a brother, in front of my sick father, is my brother talking like that? My brother begging for love" he complained while crying bitterly.
" Sarah, istighfar. There are still many good men who want to marry you, a soul mate cannot be forced! " kiai Hasan said.
" How could it be a match, if bang Dya did not try to marry me, kiai? Who gets married has a divorce ?" Sarah concluded.
" Sarah, Istighfar! I'm not a good man, and I don't love you "Dya told Sarah.
" Good men are many of the Dya bangs in this world. I don't need that actually, Brother doesn't love me now, because brother hasn't tried, but if brother marries me, I'm sure I will love me. Why brother, I do not invite to worship God, but as if this is a great sin? " said Sarah started to fumble.
" Kiai, is it wrong for my son to beg for love for his son? I am a father and you are a father, whether this is a religious syari'at, yet you said there are things to be hastened, namely marriage, marriage, is there a story in the marriage that the bride and groom must love each other first? is it a guarantee, if married is required to have to love each other first? " ask Salim to Kiai Hasan.
Kiai Hasan took a long breath of confusion, because indeed what Sarah did was not contradictory in religion, just that there was something that a woman did not deserve to do to men.
Kiai Hasan salutes the courage of Sarah who immediately proposed Dya to her, as well as her father.
Dya, it's getting worse with a situation like this. Moreover, the attitude is not pleasant and difficult to reject him Dya, making him distraught and confused.
Dya was just silent, occasionally seeing Sarah who was crying sob. Begging, her love is accepted.
Basically he has started to melt with Sarah's attitude. The one so eagerly expressed his feelings, and wanted a marriage with her.
The iba of a Dya began to enter the recesses of his heart.
Seeing the tears that flowed from Sarah's eyes, Dya was already heartless.
" Dya, I hope you accept Sarah with all her flaws. She's a loyal woman, I know that. Sarah's been waiting for you for a long time, there are already some people who want to ask for her. But he refused, all he wanted was you. This is Sarah's last effort. He was ashamed to beg for love for men. Please Kiai ridhoi my son married to your son, pity my son" said Salim welcomes.
" I will be meridhoi as a parent, but I will return it to Dya, because the decision to get married is Dya's own business" replied Kiai Hasan.
Dya, so moved to see Sarah's struggle to try to marry him.
His sacrifice in waiting, made his heart torn apart.
I know, it feels like waiting for years but the end result is disappointing. For the class of others may have given up, but for Sarah instead ready to bear the risk.
To bear love, bear longs, bear withholds feelings, bear jealousy, bear anger and be disappointed to see the person he loves finally marry someone else instead of himself.
Dya had already started to tremble in admiration.
Which man is not flattered, himself privileged?
Which man, who is unhappy in a woman?
Which man is unhappy, if envied?
Which man does not feel a lucky creature, there is a woman loyal and ready to bear any risk to him ?
Dya walked towards the sofa, and sat down, pondering a little.
Still with that silence in the room.
Everyone is waiting for the decision.
