CHAPTER 4: APPLICATION - IJAB KOBUL

THE SOENGGONO BASUPATI RESIDENCE

"Mamaaa.. come on dong, hunt. It's this afternoon." Call Papa Adi to Mama Rani.

"Yes, Pa. Wait dong. Mama's getting ready for this." Mama Rani answered by inserting a small box and 2 objects in the form of large and small circles. Yup. Wedding ring. A hereditary will from his stone age ancestors... 😆. Very durable because of it.

"Pa, what's Abi? Was it a belom landing? Where is it now?" Ask Mama Rani to Papa Adi who has been busy with her phone since to contact her son out there.

However, the sound (the number you are aiming for is off). WA not in bales-bales. Tangut also Papa Adi with the attitude of his son.

" Papa's been calling me how many times, but not active, Ma. Just look, if he didn't come to the cover today, Papa made him cornstarch." Said Papa Adi with a growl.

"Udah, ah. Don't have kesel. Come on, let's go Pa. Kasian Anin Sama Bagas was waiting. Same as Mama's future daughter-in-law... Haha." Mama Rani said excitedly '45.

THE SOEKARNO-HATTA AIRPORT

"Den, Abi.!" Call Mr. Man who is busy running small approaching Abi.

"Sir Man, pick me up? Thank you, sir." Answer Abi sumringah. Because Abi is almost too late. May the streets be deserted, Amin...

"Den, where are we going?" Ask Sir, Man

"Go to Om Bagas' house with Aunt Anin, Mr. Man." Sahut Abi while holding his body in the back seat and leaning his head on the seat. Tired of it now.

THE PRAYOGO RESIDENCE

"Ndok, have you finished reflecting?" Ledek Bu Anin to his eldest son.

Anna is trying on her modern dress shirt in front of the mirror. With plain milk chocolate and a simple hijab that dangles to cover the chest.

"Ayune, koe, Ndok. Wis gede cah wedok'e Bu'e (Beautiful you, son. It's been a big girl's mother)." Said Bu Anin by holding Anna's shoulder. Anna who was praised, showed her a sweet smile. ☺

"Yet... Anna's... Is it done yet the dress? Let's welcome our besan candidate." Said Dad Bagas very excited.

"Yes, Dad. Anna, get out." Anna, too, invites Ms. Anin to come out and welcome her future father-in-law.

I don't know what's going on. All so fast. Anna soon became the wife of the Soenggono Basupati family. There was worry that enveloped his heart.

Soenggono Basupati family was too luxurious for him. Is he worthy of a match with a man, the sole heir of Basupati Soenggono? Hhh.. I don't know. Her thought.

Shortly afterwards, a voice of people said their greetings.

"Assalamualaikum" Simultaneously Papa Adi, Mama Rani, Eyang Kung, and Eyang Ti said greetings.

They entered the house of Bagas and Anin's father with some hands.

Anna's house is under her garage and if you want to enter Anna's house, you have to climb a few stairs first. In front of his house in a mini-yard that there are some plants. While the back of the house is a good garden to plant mango trees and other plants. Anna's favorite place. Carried trees.

"Eeehh. Enter, enter, here. Sorry, my house is not as wide as your house. But enough to hold." Said Bagas' father to Papa Adi who was embraced by his shoulder.

"You are, Gas. Much the same. My house is also ordinary." Papa Adi is down.

What is ordinary. House with an area of 1 hectare, 3 floors, with a garden and yard that is the area of Masya Allah, plus two-wheeled vehicles and four-wheeled lined as in the dealer, as it is normal??? Try it Papa Adi please conditioned 😅

While talking, Anna looked confused. Where's her future husband? Didn't he come together? Inner Anna. Mama Rani understood once the worry on Anna's face. She must be confused because her future husband is not here, the inner Mama Rani.

"Ndock." Call Mama Rani to Anna.

"Yes, Aunt." Answer Anna politely.

"Just calm. Abhimanyu is on his way. He had a business trip yesterday to Singapore. So we can't come here with us. He's definitely coming. Just relax." Mama Rani said with a warm smile.

"Yes, Aunt. What's up." Anna answered with a sweet smile.

*****

Shortly as they were talking, there was the sound of greeting from outside.

"Assalamualaik." Said a man with his sturdy body and hefty body at the door of Anna's house.

Abi wore a brown long coat outfit with black shirts, long jeans, his pantopel shoes and a black bag on his back, as well as the sunglasses that he hung on his shirt plus with long hair tied cepol.

"Getishalight." Answer everything in the house.

"Have you come, Abi? Here, here, come in, son." Said Bagas' father who asked Abi to go inside immediately and sit down to lay himself on his soft sofa.

Abi went in and greeted everyone there. But if the same Dika, use tos ala-ala children of his time. 😄

"Abi, how are you being contacted so hard? Papa sampe senewen called." Said Papa Adi with a murmur.

"Sorry, Pa. Abi lowbet Mobile. I was gonna call Papa." Abi who felt guilty had made her worry.

Anna, who had been in the kitchen preparing drinks and snacks, only listened to the sound of their conversation.

"My husband's candidate is coming. Oh, my God, how so good." Anna said in her heart. He inhaled it many times and let it out. Nervous of Anna.

"Ndok, all of you make drinks for me, son Abi ya." Said Ms. Anin to Anna.

"Ooh... Her name is Abi, isn't it Mom?" Anna asked Anin.

"Yes. handsome ndok. If you're young already smitten the same time doi." Miss Anin that's really gaul guys. Haha...

"Yeeee... Mom, there's-there's just." Answer Anna who was carrying a tray of drinks and snacks.

"Come, come, please taste." Said Ms. Anin to everyone in the living room. Anna returned to the kitchen to save the tray.

"It looks like we should start the show right away." Said Papa Adi who opened the conversation.

"Bagas, we and our family are here with good intentions to propose to your son Anna. Which I will marry my son Abi. How's Bagas?" Papa Adi's.

"I accept your good intentions. Who wants to marry Abi your son and Anna my son. I'm so glad to hear that. But all the answers are with our children. How about Abi and Anna?" Ask Bagas' father to Abi and Anna.

"I'm happy if my good intentions are accepted by Om Bagas' son." He stared at Anna.

"Anna? How are you ndok?" Ask Bagas's Dad. Anin's mother, who was sitting next to Anna, stroked her back. It was as if he knew that his son was so clumsy.

"Yes, Dad." Anna answered briefly by raising her head and giving a dimple smile to her cheek.

Anna felt that Abi had been watching her and when Anna looked up, she was shocked. The man who became her future husband was the man who became her prayer priest at that time.

By Allah, this man is handsome. Which made Anna's face meet red with embarrassment and lowered her head.

"All right then. Mom and Dad were happy to hear it. Isn't that Bagas? Anin?" Ask Papa Adi.

"Yes. Especially Mama. Seneeenngggg" said Mama Rani who began to speak.

"Let's just set the wedding date." Papa Adi.

"What about next week? It's Sunday." Replied Papa Adi very excited.

"Yes. We made the garden party that's Anin who like we talked about before." Said Mama Rani who was as excited as Bu Anin.

"We'd better ask Abi and Anna." Said Bagas' father who wanted to listen to Abi and Anna's decision.

"If Abi, faster, better Pa, Om. Because Abi also has a business trip to London that takes a long time. Abi was married at the time. But Abi also wants to hear Anna's opinion. How about, Anna's deck?" Ask Abi to Anna.

"By, Mas Abi." Anna answered briefly with a smile to Abi. Which makes Abi wrong.

Abi smiles sumringah, he is very happy to be accepted by Anna. Mama Rani and Papa Adi suggested having a reception that week. But Anna disagrees and Abi does too.

"Sorry Ma, Pa, Abi can't have a reception anytime soon. Because a business trip to London is so important." Abi tried to explain. Which made Mama Rani upset. Which is more important, marriage or business. Mama Rani is with Abi.

"Abimanyu! Your wedding. Why think about business, anyway. You're this!" Mama Rani said with annoyance.

"Ma, that's not what Abi___ means" Abi has not been able to continue her words, Mama Rani immediately brushed off the hand of Abi who tried to hold the hand of the mother.

Anna who saw this incident spoke up. Because actually Anna couldn't in those weeks either.

"Sorry, if Anna interrupts the conversation. Aunt Rani, Anna agrees with Mas Abi. For the recipe, we will do it later. Because that week Anna couldn't either. Anna has activities at the children's fieldtrip school. By chance, Anna becomes PIC (Personal In Charge). Anna had a huge responsibility for the event. Can we have the reception after Anna and Mas Abi have some free time?" Anna clearly explained.

"okkey. If you can't get the reception now. At least get married first. And one more. Anna, call me Mama Rani and Papa Adi too. Not Aunt and Om. We're your in-laws. Your parents are too." Pinta Mama Rani's.

"Yes, Ma." Anna replied briefly with a smile.

"Well, if so, our marriage contract will be just ba'da dzuhur. How's it?" Ask Papa Adi.

"Ba'da dzuhur? Pa, that fast?" Abi asked in surprise.

"Why Abi? You can't anymore? Business again?" Ask Mama Rani in a rather high tone. Sontak made Anna who was sitting next to him gently stroked Mama Rani's arm.

Bagas' father and Anin's mother laughed. Instead of being upset, they are funny to see Rani nagging her son. Because Bagas' father and Anin's mother knew, Mama Rani was just pretending.

"Ma, not that. This is Abi just came, Ma. Not ready for anything." Abi replied in a soft tone.

"You don't have to do anything. Mama brought them all. You take a shower there. Clean up. Mama brought a change of clothes. It's cepeeett." Mama Rani said by pushing Abi's body into the bathroom of Bagas's father's house.

"Okey, Okay. Abi, get Abi's gear first." Then Abi stood up from his seat and walked out of the house because he had to pick up his toiletries in the suitcase in the car.

Anna catches up with Abi who steps out of the house to pick up her belongings.

"Mas Abi, Mas..." Call Anna who follows her half-run.

"Yes, deck. What's up?" Abi's question, which stopped suddenly, made Anna almost fall because she almost hit Abi.

"Mas, do we want to withdraw the marriage contract? Mas Abi from earlier had not rested too, right? Let Anna tell me the same family's inside." Anna said, looking at Abi's face. They were talking on the stairs of Anna's car garage.

Anna's feet were down the stairs and Abi had already come down from the stairs. Makes them stand parallel even though Abi is much taller than Anna. If Anna wasn't on the stairs, she'd be on her tiptoes or using a chair instead. 😄

"No need, deck. Faster, better, right? It's okay. Later after from here can immediately rest." Say Abi with a heavy but soft tone of voice.

"Mas Abi sure it's okay?" Anna asked with her worried face. Because he knew, Abi must be tired.

"Yes. Mas sure. Already, you go back inside. I'm gonna grab some toiletries first." He replied with a smile and passed from Anna. Anna followed what Abi said. He went in and waited for Abi inside.

After Abi finished cleaning, they prayed dzuhur together. Mr. Penghulu has been contacted by Papa Adi since Abi cleaned up. The dzuhur prayer is over, and they prepare for the sacred event.

"Is everything ready?" Ask Mr. Penghulu to the people around. There are Mama Rani and Papa Adi, Bagas and Bu Anin's father, Eyang Kung and Eyang Ti who have always been happy to sit in the back garden, Dika, as well as Mr. Man the driver of Abi and Bi Surti Anna's domestic assistant. Once everything is ready. The event also began.

And after saying the cobul ijab, Abi and Anna were legal to be a couple in religion and law. Praying together. After the prayer, Mr. Penghulu asked Anna to kiss her husband's hand.

As Anna gets closer to her, Abi moves away. Suddenly, Anna was shocked and the people around her were also.

Abi's body trembled, his face flushed red and a rash appeared on his hands. Anna is certainly in shock with Abi now.

Why Mas Abi? Think Anna. Of course, that moment made Anna sad, because her husband did not want to touch even if only the goods shook hands with her. Makes Anna's eyes hot and wants to shed her tears.

Of course, the view did not escape from Abi. He felt guilty for treating his wife that way. Just then Abi broke out in cold sweat, his head spinning, and...

Bruugg...

Abi fainted.
