I just finished taking a shower. Ridho approached hugging me who was combing my hair. I was a little surprised by his behavior. Our eyes meet in the mirror.
"Tumbens?" my many.
"Hm .. If we move from here, how?"
"Huh?" I was a little surprised by his sudden question. "Moved? Where to?"
"Yes. We buy a house. Or get up yourself if you want to freely design the shape."
I was confused for a moment. Moving house has not been in my plans in the near future. Is Ridho getting uncomfortable living here?
"Are you buying land?"
"Yet, anyway. Again look for a simple house to renovate or vacant land first."
I am grateful in my heart. That means we're not moving any time soon. It feels so hard to leave Mom and Dad alone at home.
"Oh, that. How good it is, Mas. If you don't have money, buy the land first."
"Mas already have a little savings if only for the renovation of a small house. You want us when to move?"
It seems like Ridho understood my rather heavy feelings coming out of the house. I took a deep breath to calm my heart. Anyway, I have to go where my husband wants to live.
"Terserah Mas. I will follow the decision. But ... If you can, don't be too far from Mom's house huh, Mas?" I lowered my face from being a little nervous while expressing my wish.
"Yes, Honey. I just surveyed the area near here, really."
I exhaled a sigh of relief. The feeling of tightness that had squeezed a little reduced. It feels a little selfish, but my heart really doesn't calm down to be away from the old man now.
"Yes already. If you can get a house that is easy to change its shape, buy it."
I'm trying to understand Ridho's wish. Maybe he feels freer when we're at home. He may have other plans when we have our own.
"Siip. It's not like living here anymore. Sennag Father and Mother consider Mas like their own son."
I looked at him with a questionable look. Trying to find out the heart through the picture on his face. I found sincerity in Ridho's eyes that put his chin on my shoulder.
"Mas wants us to learn independently. If possible location, Mas want to open a small business at home. You can also creatively yourself or help your business."
It turns out my guess was right. Ridho is indeed a husband who is diligent in making a living. He currently has three ventures with his friend.
I smiled sincerely at him. My husband is magical. In fact, he was beginning to understand that I was getting bored at home.
"Yes, Mas. May all our plans be made easy by God."
"Aamiinu. Go first, yeah. Yesterday I had a chance to see one location when I came home from work."
"Yes. Be careful, Mommy."
Ridho kissed the top of my head. I also took the back of his hand to kiss. My heart was so moved by his attention so many times.
After Ridho left, I grabbed the device at the table. Looking for a minimalist home design. Look around the interior for the room. I don't know why, I became excited.
I imagined our house painted light green. I want a small garden in front of my house. It might be nice to see a swing for our kids to play. If possible, there is leftover soil for planting fruits in the back. Ah, it feels so perfect that Ridho can grant my wish.
After being satisfied to look at the design of the house, I put the device on the bed. I moved out of the room to find my mother. I want to tell Ridho's plan now, so that they're not too surprised when we decide to move later.
"What are you watching, anyway?" I try to distract him.
"It ... news about CPNS acceptance. He said there was a test this year. You wanna come?"
I was silent for a moment. Ever thought of wanting to be a country man before marriage. Now, surely I should ask Ridho for permission first.
"Let's think about it, ma'am."
"If you pass, he's a good salary. Can increase your finances. You can have your own income, so do not repotin Ridho continue if you want to buy something."
"Yes, anyway. I want to ask Ridho's opinion as well. If allowed to enter God will follow."
"necessarily too. I think Ridho is understanding. I hope he finds you coming."
"Yes, Mom. Oh yes, Ridho was talking about that house. He's got plans to buy land or a house."
"Well .. good! Then he wants to learn to live independently."
"I was thinking, what would you and Mom do if we moved out of here."
"Ngga papa, Darling .. her name is already married, yes you have to join the husband," said Mother gently.
"Yes, Mom. Fortunately Ridho said find a house that's not too far from here." I smiled shyly.
"That's good too. So we are not2 difficult if you want to look at you. Mother same father had contracted really, before being able to buy his own house."
"Really, Mom?"
"Yes, Son. He even moved his contract twice. Alhamdulillah, his father diligently, the third year we bought a small house in the village. You were just born."
I was stunned to hear Mom's story. Increasingly amazed at the struggle of the Father in taking care of the family. I feel lucky to have a father like you. Although a little stiff, he was always attentive when I was a child until adolescence.
"Keep, when do we move here?"
"Your father is a toddler, Mr. ngajak Mom wander here. We lived in a small shop. Once there's sustenance, just buy this house."
"Now know me. Kirain Bapak sama Mama lived in grandma's house before buying a house."
"Where to stay a year because Mom was young at that time, just finished High School. But you want us to live independently, so move into a second-year contract."
"Ridho said it too. I was trying to understand his wish. It's just telling me to be quieter."
"Yes, Son. May your sustenance be smooth, made easy to reach your ideals and hopes."
"Aamiinu. Thank you, Mom."
I embrace Mom's body with feeling. Mom smiled as she patted my back. It feels new yesterday I still often spoiled on Mom.
Scroll the clock on the wall showing the number twelve for less fifteen minutes. Soon enter Zuhur time. I went to my room to get ready. Mom nodded and stroked the top of my head. I was moved, even though I was married this way, Mother's affection did not decrease.
After praying, I put both hands together. To ask forgiveness and express gratitude for all the gifts God has given me for now. For a moment, I read the sentence, "Which wisdom can you deny?"
