Pursuing the Love of Siti

15. Fifteen

After the application event

"I'm coming, yeah." Siti whines when Jo returns to Jakarta.

"Come?Don't darling. Next month we got married. You have to be cut. Pamali would-be manten wandering." refused Jo when he heard the desire of his future wife to come to Jakarta.

"Next month? Very fast, anyway. There is still a lot of preparation to be taken care of. Not yet an invitation, wedding dress, wedding date, and so on." Cerocos Siti.

The cup!

Jo kisses Siti's forehead, then bends down to align with Siti's position. Both hands held Siti's hands

"Siti, we got married in KUA aja, really. No reception, no trouble! The important thing is legitimate in the eyes of religion and state. That just wants me."

Siti sorry I can't take you back to Jakarta. I'm scared, Siti. I'm afraid you're swayed again when I meet Ilham there. Maybe if I try to keep you. Because I'm sure even now we're not entirely sure we accept me.

"Can I come with Jo's sister? I want to look at Sheila." Siti was still whining as the mother appeared in their midst.

"Don't, ti. Not good for brides-to-be. You're here." said mom forbidding Siti from coming with Jo.

"Udah, Mom. No papa. Siti can stay with me. Let Siti know her future in-laws first. Let's not be surprised by marriage anymore." Answer Jihan.

"Sister Jo, don't you want to take Siti with your family? Next month's wedding is too hasty. I'll help with the preparations." Jihan suggested.

Jihan looked at Siti. After last night's conversation with Jonathan. Jihan finds out Jo's family isn't just anyone. Including glare. Jihan knows what Jo's parents are like. They still looked at someone from his status. Jihan promises to educate Siti to be a woman who is not easily oppressed.

I know Jo's family. They are notoriously arrogant. Moreover, Raisa tuh, eleven twelve equal Keisya. I will guide you so as not to be underestimated by that family. Jo seems to love you very much.

Jo put his stuff in the car. Then say goodbye to his future wife and family.

But it turns out that Jihan brought an item that belonged to Siti. After a full struggle Jihan seduced mother, finally Siti allowed to come with Jo. As long as it stays with Jihan, not at Jo's house.

Somehow Jo was so heavy hearted when he found out Siti would come along. During the trip jo just fell silent. He was afraid that Siti would be reunited with Ilham.

Jihan in the car tells of her dream man who she says will be betrothed to her. Siti carefully listened to Jihan's story.

For some reason when Jihan told him about the figure, Siti imagined that men were Inspiration. But on the edge, Siti had promised herself she would forget Inspiration. Siti promised herself she would love Jonathan.

"You know, ti. A few days ago, before I came here. I met my childhood friend. His age is far below me. About five years below me. Her sister used to be my schoolmate, but yes I don't like her brother, he's arrogant. Yeah, probably because his family's up in the wind. Different from his sister, friendly, kind and polite.

You know,ti. He was a widower, he said his wife had died. But when I kept my mother in the hospital, I saw her praying in her room. Who wouldn't melt seeing a man like that. No, ti." Jihan looked at Siti sleeping.

There was so much he wanted to tell me about this man.

Jihan turned to Jo who was still literate "Sister Jo, if I sleepy brother want to change nyetir." said jihan.

"I'm sorry, I haven't driven in 10 years. My hands are stiff.sorry, huh?" Jo refuses as a replacement driver.

Jo stared at the car glass, looking at the tree-lined street. Thought glaring. He remembered while tidying things up, finding a prayer guide book. But that's not the case, Jo opened the writing believed to be from Siti to Ilham.

It says: For the candidate of my faith.

At 04:55, Pramono's residence

That morning, Mama Mila passed through the room of Ilham. Mama Mila was surprised to see her son sitting on a prayer mat. Before long Ilham said the salutation prayer sign was finished.

"Ham." call mama when she sees her son just finished morning prayers.

"Yes, ma." she answered approaching Mama Mila.

"Hmmmm ... What time do you leave?"

"I'll get the plane at 8 in the morning, ma."

"Excite yes, son. Mama's sorry I couldn't keep you company. But there's your father replacing you."

Since returning home from Siti's village, I have seen many changes in Ilham. Since that return, Ilham has started praying five times. In the past, he was only Magrib. Now, he had started to study night prayers.

I'm proud of you, son. Sorry mom and dad who can't educate you in religion. Is this the influence of Siti? Hope your change is not just for Siti.

"Ma, Inspiration goes first, yes." Inspiration to mother Mila brought Aunt Tami and Brian's father as guardians to apply for Siti.

"Be careful, ham. Tell Siti, mama can not come because papa is still unconscious. Mama must have blessed you. That girl's a good girl. Ever since you knew her, you've changed a lot" Mama Mila said as she rubbed Ilham's hair.

Ilham immediately went to Jambi.

Siti, I came. I came to keep my promise to you. I hope you will wait for me.

Ilham stared at the ring he was wearing in a couple with Siti. His eyes continued to stare at the sky, while daydreaming of memories with Siti.

The car drove to Soekarno-Hatta airport.

A few hours later, they reached Sukasari. Ilham stood in front of Siti's house. A mother opened the door.

"My mother came here to keep my promise. Bringing my family to propose to Siti."

Long time mom silent. Then suddenly my mother said

"Sorry, ham. Siti is married to Jonathan. You're late, ham."

"Married? with brother Jo? No way, Mom. The agreement within a week I was asked to come here. It's still the sixth day, meaning there's still time."

"That's Siti's own decision, ham." replied the mother.

Inspiration from Siti's house with broken feelings. Throughout the journey he was just wandering. Not a word was said.

Ti, so this is why you ignored me.

You prefer Jonathan.

Okay if that's your decision, I appreciate it.
