Sendu Sweetener

PS 9 - Ghifari Family

I returned to the living room with tea and a glass on the tray. As long as I put the tea on the table I felt that grandma kept watching me. I went back to the kitchen. Help Ms. Ghifari cook for lunch.

While cooking, the house bell rang a sign that someone was coming. Gifari's mother rushed away to open the door. While Bude Ulfa is bringing cookies to the living room.

Now I'm alone. Eat vegetables that will make everyone hungry when they are cooking. I started cutting carrots. Fortunately as a girl I am no stranger to the kitchen. So when it comes to cooking, I have no trouble.

Ghifari suddenly appeared with his fresh face. He looks like he just finished a shower. I just wanted to open my mouth to berate her, but she hurriedly placed her index finger in front of her lips.

"hold. You can catch me later if the show is over. Okay?" said.

Kontan I growl.

Seeing my face red, he laughed.

"Do you want help?" said.

"No." I said jutek.

Suddenly Ghifari's mother appears. As much as possible I normalized my face that held back resentment.

"Tumben you came to the kitchen?" ask Ghifari's mother.

Ghifari could only laugh at his mother's words.

"Where you go to the living room, do not disturb the prospective mother-in-law to cook" said Ms. Ghifari.

I can only smile. After all, that's all I can do because I don't know what else to say.

"Yes, Ma. Yes." said Ghifari.

"I went to the living room first, Za" she said.

I'm nodding. Ghifari is gone.

Bude Ulfa came again to help us cook again.we were struggling with the pot and frying pan. While cooking I thought of something. It turns out that the Gifari family is Islamic once. Look at the clothes the Gifari family is wearing. Thankfully, I did not get the wrong costume today.

Once the dish was on the table, someone came again. For a second I was stunned. His face was familiar. He greeted for a while then went inside after being stunned for a moment to see me.

Who her? Soon she came back with someone who was also in a wheelchair. He was stunned to see me. What the hell is it? Why do I feel like almost everyone is surprised to see me?

Ghifari also appeared next to the two men. "Pah, Bang, he knew his name was Azzahra, Ghifari's future wife" she said.

Rightly guessed. The man was Gifari's father and brother. But why doesn't Ghifari look like her father? Kaka and his father are very similar.

No matter what happened to me, I approached the two and kissed the hands of father and kaka Gifari. I even forgot about Ghifari's mahram words.

It was like something strange was going on in my body. Why don't I feel foreign? Why would I bother kissing their hands when I just clenched my hands?

Dinner took place with 2 grandmothers, 2 grandfathers, 3 women my mother's age, 3 their husbands, 2 teenage children, 4 small children, gifari, her brother and me. Real crowded.

"This is what Nak Azzahra cooked" said Ms. Gifari.

Everyone laughed except for the grandmother who was crying to see me. From the look on his face he did not like Ms. Ghifari, visible from his face that continues to show a cynical face to Ms. Ghifari.

"Soul, besides being beautiful, polite, friendly, she can cook, her dream daughter-in-law. Haidar you when to invite your future wife as well. Find the candidate like Azzahra yes." said Bude Ulfa.

I just found out that Gifari's kaka name is Haidar. Bang Haidar only smiled faintly. Then glance at me. There's something in her custody. I'm sure it is.

"Have we met before?" ask Bang Haidar. Turns out that's what he thought.

I haven't been able to answer yet. Ghifari hastily cut. "You know each other?" his question could not hide his curiosity. I shook my head slowly.

"This is for the first time" said Bang Haidar.

The topic of conversation on the table now almost predominately praised me. In my heart I want to scream. Blaming Ghifari for lying to his family so good and harmonious. I also cursed myself, for why I felt comfortable with this situation. When I accidentally saw Ghifari's watch. I'm getting restless. Ghifari was aware of my behavior. Then look at his watch.

"Why?" tanyakanya.

"Gu... I-I have to go home." I said.

"Ma, Pa, everybody, Ghifari forgot a promise. Ghifari and Za must leave now" Ghifari said.

"Can't you eat first?" ask grandma another one that looks like she keeps watching me.

Ghifari. "No way, Grandma. It's important" he said.

Ghifari then told me to hurry, and I followed. After apologizing to everyone, we left.

Before returning home, Ghifari took me to a restaurant and bought a lot of food.

"That's not most?" I said.

"Let me abisin later" Ghifari said.

"meaning?"

"Yes, I want to eat at your house with your nyokap lo."

"Who is allowed?"

"Yokap you must have my permission."

"Lo ate already."

"No inget if there is a grasak-grusuk want to go home when I just ate 2 bribes?"

"Yes I lost. You don't want to cower to girls."

"There's no alesan to beat the macem elo chick."

"But there's always an alesan for you to win from me. That's not fair."

"His name is alive too."

Arriving in front of the house, I realized something. I still wear long clothes. What would my mother say if she saw my appearance change drastically? If my mother is ordinary and even accepts, I don't mind but if my mother gives a negative response how? It will affect his health. And I don't want to.

"Gue has to get changed" I said, turning to him.

"Why?" tanyanya's confused.

"Mama's condition is unpredictable, I'm afraid.." I haven't finished talking. He hastily opened his car door.

"Change the car. I'm out. No one can see you from the outside" he said.

After he got off. I also changed my clothes. When I finished, I went down. Of course with the same clothes when I left the house earlier.I put all my clothes in a paper bag that I was carrying.

We also entered the house.

"Assalamualaikum." I shouted as I finished knocking on the door. "Mama, Ara's coming home." I said.

I went into my room and took my mother out of the room. And let Ghifari accompany him. I rushed to the kitchen to get the tableware. Then serve food to the dining room. Things I never did after Aunt Linda passed away. That guy's weird. Why should he come?

When I was ready I coded Ghifari to take my mother to the dining room. Anywhere according.

So sweet. Uh. Looks like my brain is broken.

"Basst the belly of the sack." I said to Gifari.

"Aunty doesn't mind if you have a son-in-law sack stomach?" ask Gifari.

I just wanted to scold her but my mother smiled. I smiled back at my mother. But I started thinking about a lot of things.

How'this? I've heard that a mother's wish is to see her child get married.

But if my mom finds out what a fake relationship I'm having? Ghifari. Just look I'll get you back.
