Should We Get Married?
Process
The next day, Bagas came back home, he was still alone because his parents did not approve. His father and mother objected that Bagas married me because my condition was different now. Plus his status is still a student. Getting married now is feared unable to provide for her because every day, her needs are still met by her family. Although very hopeful to be approved, but we can hold back the attitude of his parents. They are from a good family, would also want to get a good besan and daughter-in-law as well. Even if what happened to me was a disaster. But still do not want to have a daughter-in-law who has a disability.
"Although without the blessing of father and mother, I still want to marry Ayu, sir. I am sure, after we get married, one day my parents will definitely melt his heart. Moreover, our families already know each other, it will not be difficult to change the decision" said Mas Bagas with full confidence.
"Married without blessing? No-no. It's just gonna be a new problem. I appreciate your goodwill to help my daughter not to be too big to bear the embarrassment. But there is also to be remembered that marriage is not a matter of two days. I can't imagine how my daughter would be if her in-laws didn't accept her existence. He must feel an uncomfortable life. Now that he has borne a very heavy burden, it seems I cannot bear if he has to accept a heavier burden again" said the father.
"But sir, I promise I will always be on Ayu's side. I will try to make the hearts of my father and mother melt. After marriage, we will live in a different place to my parents. We're going to Jakarta, meaning the interaction with my parents will not be much" explained Bagas.
"To Jakarta? Then you'll continue your college? What about my daughter? Are you able to take responsibility for it while you yourself do not have a job" said the father.
"Sir, I am not yet established. I am currently a student but I can also work part-time. InshaAllah, if Ayu does not mind simple life first then my income is enough to meet the needs of our daily life later." added mas Bagas.
"Hmmm, how's Yu?" Dad threw me a question.
I who had just listened immediately nervous, confused what to answer.
My existence here will only be a burden to my father and brothers. They've been through a lot of trials just to defend me. Even if this case continues to be fought, the possibility of getting justice feels very small. I realized who was our opponent. It is like challenging the sun when people say.
"Well, if you approve, Ayu accepts the application of Bagas. But still the final verdict Ayu leave to father because Ayu is very sure, whatever you choose for Ayu is the best." I said, still with a bowed face.
"Are you sure, son?" ask Dad. "Don't make it a burden on your current condition. I told you that we will always support you. For the baby, we all made a deal. Judah and Yuni will take care of him. They will love like their own children, so do not feel burdened by anything. You're a good father's daughter, so I want you to have happiness" said the father.
"Well, getting married now or later is the same. As long as Bagas can accept Ayu with open arms then Ayu is very sure to be happy forever." I tried to convince dad even though my own heart was also worried.
"Alhamdulillah if Ayu accepts me. So how, sir, can you accept me as a son-in-law? I promise to be a good husband to Ayu. I will try to meet all his needs as well." The Bagas promise.
"Anwar I am also heavy to give blessing, but if you two are sure, as parents I can only help with prayer that the marriage that you will live can get blessing and happiness." father's prayer.
"Aamiin," said the two of us simultaneously.

The marriage was only a matter of days, although we have not received the blessing of Bagas' parents but all will continue to be carried out. at least we will be married religiously. According to the paternity, it is okay to marry a pregnant woman even with a man who is not the biological father of the baby conceived.
Based on the plan we made, after getting married later, I will join Bagas mas to Jakarta. We will both continue our studies there. After the baby is born, I will give it to Yuda and Yuni. They will take care of him. A decision that made me calmer. Although I do not like the existence of this baby, but I also did not have the heart to take his life. As my family advises, this child is innocent, he is innocent. He should not have taken away the sins his parents had committed.
Because this marriage is done impromptu, then this marriage will be carried out simply. Only invite RaT, ustadz and penghulu devices only. The right-left neighbor was only told about the wedding plans. Father said, if we are married we will distribute rice blessing to the neighbors to feel also the happiness we feel.

This morning, I just finished. Just a few minutes before the deal. My heart was pounding imagining everything that was like a dream. I used to dare to pray to God to be betrothed to Bagas and now the prayer is granted. It's just that the time doesn't feel so right that it still makes me doubt whether to be happy or vice versa.
Not yet so Bagas said kabul ijab suddenly heard a noise outside. Apparently the old man Bagas who came. They looked angry when they found out their children were still desperate to get married even though they were threatened not to get any more funds.
"However, I thought you were a really good person, but you trapped our son to take responsibility for your daughter's pregnancy. The child she contained was not my son's, but why did she have to endure it all?" ask her father bang Bagas. "My son's future is broken. I used to be so proud of your family who looked pretentious and kind, but it turned out that it was all just a mask. In fact, you can destroy our family from behind!" Bagas' father sounded angry. Actually I want to go out to join mrlarai, but Mbak Tika forbid.
