Pursuing the Love of Siti

33. Trying to forget

"You likey?"

Siti sees a wedding dress that Jo uploads to her WhatsApp Siti.

Lips expand to see a dress she feels she can't afford.

"Don't like?" The words spread his mind again.

"Like, Brother Jo." replied Siti gently.

"Alhamdulillah that way." a tone of relief from Jo's voice sounded.

"Just..." Siti imagined the gaze of the person who saw her wearing a wedding dress but sitting in a wheelchair.

Shown in his mind is the mistreatment of the neighbors or perhaps the guests. Where she is now is just a poor girl who dreams of marrying a rich man like Jo.

"Why, baby? Are the clothes less good? Do you miss me, Siti?"

Siti laughed at jo's appeal. While heading to her wheelchair Siti still holds her phone for a video call with Jo.

"I'm ashamed, brother. I'm disabled. Brother Jo please think again about our wedding plans." Jo looked at the sad face of Siti. But Jo's not his name if he doesn't show his funny face. In order to comfort Siti, Jo closed her lips, making Siti laugh.

"Duh, mother's daughter-in-law. Early in the morning, report." Mom's face appeared behind Siti.

"Momuuu!!! Jo's kangen!!!" exclaim Jo.

Mom laughs "What mom miss is Siti?" seductive mother. Makes Jo's face flushed. Siti looks at her happy mother while she is with Jo.

"Both,Bu. Because thanks to my mother I was able to meet an angel like her."

"Son Jo's good at wooing, yeah."

"Something's wrong, ma'am." replied Jo

"Who?"

"Mas Rama her husband Elliana. That's lo, ma'am who has a restaurant in Bandung. Uh, sorry I was promoting someone else. I know him well with Rama. He used to eat at her place."

"Ooooh, mas Rama whose story was raised by Rasti ya. It's a cool novel, brother, I like to read it too." Siti Sahut.

"She likes to read too, baby."

"Yes brother. It's Rasti's work cool-cool."

Siti looked at her mother's glowing face. For Siti if the one who called was not Jo, maybe she would not have seen the face of her mother who was so happy. Sometimes his head lowered to remember Ilham had no news, after a week in Sukasari.

Ma'am if the one who called it Inspiration, is the attitude of the mother is still this friendly. Why do I think of men who give no certainty. A cowardly man who suddenly lost his tracks. If I knew it would be like this again, I wouldn't open my heart to you again, ham.

True, people say that mother prayer is the most efficacious step of life. Mother's prayer is heard by God the fastest.

Site promise,Bu. Siti will learn to love Jo. Moreover, brother Jo's family has accepted me as his daughter-in-law.

I will always listen to my mother's words. Sorry Lady. All this time blind to love. Siti promises to make mom happy by accepting brother Jo as husband.

"Mom, I want to have a serious talk with Siti. Can you leave us both." pinta Jo.

"okay.oke...I feel like a mosquito here." replied the mother, chuckling to leave Siti and Jo on video call.

"Sity?"

"Yes, why Jo?" answer Siti with a smile.

"Hmmm... You want to heal, right?"

"You dong. I want our wedding day to be your perfect queen. Don't want to embarrass Jo's brother and family."

"Ah, I don't have a problem, ti. After we get married, we'll go on a honeymoon."

"Ih, brother Jo. I thought about the honeymoon. Don't don't you think ...."

"you want to say I've been thinking about our first night, right." guess Jo with a naughty look.

siti's face immediately flushed. He just wants to say to Jo, if you think not far away. But it turned out that even silenced the same speech of the man.

Somehow Siti felt Jo had her own charm, although the charm of Inspiration was still strong in her heart.

"Sister Jo doesn't work." Siti diverted the conversation.

"This is again at the office. Dizziness look at this many files. That's why I called you to let the miss get treated."

"Udah ah, seduce Mulu. Work, gih. Find a lot of money."

"Siti Marlina's..."

"Well what else, brother Jonathan Abraham."

"Are you sincerely accepting my proposal?"

"Oh, so brother Jo doubted me. Do you think I accept my brother because he comes from a family that is, right." Siti begins to get upset with Jo's question.

"It's not so, dear." Jo tried to correct his words.

Tuuuuuut tuuuuuut tuuuuut

Siti turned off her phone. His feelings are upset and offended by Jo's question. Although Siti actually knows Jo's question will not be able to answer. I don't know why he doesn't like to hear it.

For some reason since his legs paralyzed siti felt himself easily offended. Even if the problem is a small thing. But for Siti it can make her sensitive.

Since returning to Sukasari, Siti has never left the house. She was ashamed of her current condition. Always imagined by him scorned people about his paralyzed condition. Although no one actually said that, but the sneers that he often heard in Jakarta, always danced in his brain.

⁇ ️ Brother Jo.

"Ti, actually I sent a doctor to handle you. Maybe in a few days he will come home.

You have to be upbeat, Siti. Don't be inferior anymore.

Siti was moved by Jonathan's kindness. Siti again compares Jo and Ilham.

Because Dimata Siti Jo is better than Inspiration. For him Inspiration only gave him false hope. Unlike Jo who proves her feelings without demanding that she must accept the man.

Siti swerves her wheelchair, heading for Edwar's locked room from the outside. His hands reached for the mattress that was only covered with mats. His body crashed into the mattress, Siti's eyes were fixed on a prayer guide book. Siti opens the first page.

A book he used to write for someone. A man who once gave him high hopes, a man who had and until now had not moved from his heart. A man who made himself hurt by his promises. There was always something beautiful in her memory about that man.

Siti was crying hugging the book. Crying in light of his desire helps Inspiration to become a better man. But Siti is sick, because what she wants doesn't match reality.

You're evil!

You gave me hope!

Then destroy that hope!

But maybe this is what he called guidance.

Because God has convinced me that Jo is better than you.

But why in my istikharah is always you in sight.

am I less solemnly praying.

Forgive me, O God, I do not intend to obey your commands.

Maybe it's true that I'm less solemn

So all that comes to mind is my hallucination.

Siti soon falls asleep in Edwar's room. Somehow Siti dreamed of a man handcuffing her hand. It just doesn't show his face.
