Should I Joke (Again)
46. Please.help me.
Last night after her hangout with Gama, Ardan went back to his apartment to rest.
But before dawn he immediately cleaned himself and prepared to perform dawn prayers.
After finishing, Ardan then took his backpack filled with a few t-shirts and shirts, as well as other necessities.
Today Ardan is going somewhere, there's something he has to take care of. And although he slept late last night and only a few hours, but because of a good sleep he felt his body fresher.
Before leaving, Ardan picked up a few slices of fresh bread and smeared with strawberry jam, and made his favorite black coffee, so he wouldn't get sleepy on the way.
Although a man but Ardan likes cleanliness and neatness, if he lives here then during the weekend he will clean his own apartment. Once every two days he uses cleaning services from the apartment manager, so always kept clean.
Heading to the basement and putting down his backpack then preparing to drive his car. And now he's been splitting the city streets to somewhere.
Because today the road weekend seems empty, so there is no congestion on some roads that become a subscription to traffic jams.
Sometimes Ardan stops at the rest area just to stretch his muscles, or to the toilet.
The clock shows the number eight, not felt his stomach ringing, worms have been protesting, his eyes occasionally watch around looking for a restaurant that has been opened.
Not feeling half the way, he stopped his car in a simple restaurant but looked crowded because the parking lot looked full.
Walking towards the place where one of the tables was empty, Ardan then sat down and ordered his food. Occasionally see a flat object near the car keys.
There was not a single notification, but when his eyes saw his wallpaper hape, he again felt a longing for his lover.
Swiping the photo, a smile fluffed up on her face as she recalled her accidentally photographing Rei the first time she met at the bookstore.
Ardan drove back his car, out of town and occasionally checked his e-hape. Finally Ardan chose to install earphones and contact Gama.
tut..
Long enough there was no reply from across, after trying several times finally connected.
"Hello, it's still daytime" Ardan said later.
"About, that was at dawn I was still jogging and taking a shower. Just got out the bathroom already called, just disturb." Gamas
"Either way.The turn of this ashes is molested again, you think I don't know your habits." - ridiculed Ardan
"You're wrong big master, today this weekend the date schedule is waiting, I want a day to accompany the princess mumpung him off. Emang lu doang who can" reply Gama
"hahaha.oke, okay.continue, sosor continue but remember do not invest first, let it be exciting." Ardan replied, deflecting his car.
"semprul..I can still hold, at least a little touch let ga garing hahaha..." Gama.
"Where are you, brother, where was rame?" ask Gama later.
While paying attention to his rearview mirror, Ardan drove his car slowly, entering the beautiful area, making him enjoy the air by opening his car glass.
"Sori bro, I'm going somewhere, and now I'm going to get ready to meet people who are loved by my women."
Ardan stopped his car under a large tree at the public cemetery. Get out of the car and look for a familiar name.
"Wait don't tell me you want to go to Hadi's house now?" Gamas
"yup, and I'm on my way to the navel of the late Anton." Ardan
"What.you're crazy men" he said in disbelief, Gama really can't think with his best friend this one.
"Yes I am. Okay, I'll close first, we'll call again."
"Good luck, bro"
Ardan then rests in this well-preserved tomb, after reading Ardan's prayer and holding Anton's tombstone.
"Hi bro, I'm sorry that I was so rude to come here but I just want you to know that I'm serious with Rei. I want you to bless us, I love him as much as you love him."
"I hope you understand, and please help me convince both your parents and her parents that I'm serious."
"One day I'll come back here with Rei, and thank you" Ardan said as he rubbed his headstone.
After that Ardan passed and returned to drive his car to Anton's parents' house.

The car stopped at a house that looked bigger than the others in the village. The beautiful scenery so spoiled his eyes.
His feet stepped towards the door and knocked on it.
Before long the door seemed open, a middle-aged woman his mama's age looked still beautiful.
"waalaikumsalam, find who?" ask her
"Is Mr Hadi there?" Ardan
"Who would you know?" his eyes were scrabbling, had never seen this young man, but his face was like no stranger anymore.
"Whoa, ma'am, the guest was not told to come in" a baritone voice sounded behind him, the woman turned her head, had not had time to answer suddenly her husband had opened the door.
"You...Ardan right, Mr. Pras' son" asked Mr. Hadi.
"Yes, um. It turned out that om recognized me" replied Ardan his hand took the hands of the two old men and kissed him takdim.
"What do you mean, Mr Pras, who owns the restaurant and hypermarket?" holy Ma'am went with the nimbrung.
"Yes ma, let's go in. Are you alone?"
The three of them then walked in and sat down on the living room sofa, then talked back.
"You are alone, how can anyone help you, why the growth of young entrepreneurs who are up and coming to our hut" Hadi sir
"Om it could be, thank you for accepting me. I came here myself because I have something to say." said Ardan a little nervous.
"Ma, the guest is allowed to drink first, pity from far away." Mr. Hadi
"Yes pa, until I forget my mother, his face looks like a stranger." Holy Mother
" Obviously, her face is often the heroine in business magazines. He's a successful businessman" Hadi sir
"Om too much, I still lose far from om" said Ardan low.
"Ah, you are. Papa mu comrade om, respected cold-handed businessman. And you go down in nature. Om knows that" Hadi joked
" There's actually something I want to talk to you about with om and aunty."
Ardan's words came to a halt when he saw Holy Mother coming with a tray of warm tea and some snacks.
"Let's go Ardan, drink his tea mumpung still warm." put a cup of tea in front of Ardan, and stick out a plate of bananas just lifted from the frying pan.
"Well, like her nice aunt. Thank you"
While enjoying the treat, they continued the chat.
"I'm sorry before, for coming here. It was also a time to stop by Anton's tomb" said Ardan, the two parents looked at each other.
"I want to ask permission and also the blessing of om and aunt." Ardan knew they were shocked by his request.
"I want to ask Rei to be my wife" said Ardan firmly, although honestly he seemed hesitant because Rei was like their own child.
"I can't promise you a grandiose one, I just want to say I love Rei and I'm serious with him."
"Maybe om and aunt, still hesitant to see my sincerity. But I'm a normal guy who could be seduced by demons, and I don't want that to happen. That's why I ventured to ask Rei directly to om and aunt."
Seeing the earnestness in Ardan's eyes, the two old men looked amazed, Ardan dared to ask Rei directly.
The tears seeping down the middle-aged woman in front of him, Ardan knew his affection for Rei was so great.
"Thank you son Ardan, has asked Rei to us" said Mr. Hadi
"While we are not entitled, Rei is our daughter at all times"
The wife just nodded and cried with tears because finally there was a man who boldly proposed to Rei.
"Thank you, auntie knows you deserve Rei. Please take care of her, she's our daughter" the Holy Mother stood up and approached Ardan, then hugged him.
Ardan isn't much different from Anton, maybe they're the same age. The Holy Mother saw the figure of Anton on him, the youngest child who had to die while carrying out state duties.
Mr. Hadi also hugged Ardan, their affection for Rei he could feel.
Ardan is delighted that his genuine intention to propose to Rei has gone smoothly and has the support of Anton's parents.
Still returning Hadi's embrace, Ardan saw the figure of Anton on the frame in front of him. She smiled, and she said thank you.
