Should We Get Married?

Started to Argue

After returning from the police station, I stepped foot into the house, mbak Yuni had walked first. Just about to close the door again, someone suddenly called my name. He stood only a few feet in front of me.

"Yes, can I talk?" the door, as I move forward.

"Well what else are you here for? Get out of here, I don't want to see you again!" I was about to close the door, but was hurriedly restrained by him.

"Yes, please give me a chance to explain everything. I don't mean to ruin you, everything that happens is beyond my awareness. Yu, I really love you, so there's no way I'm destroying you." He was trying to explain something I didn't want to hear.

"Go ... Go. I don't want to see you anymore. Don't ever show up in front of me" I said, trying to get him to leave.

"Yu .. Who is it? Why fuss?" mbak Yuni who had already entered the house back out. "Lho, you? What are you going to do here?" mbak Yuni was upset to see Juan. "Sana ... There go. Never stand in front of us again. You're just causing trouble, ruining our family's happiness!"

"Sorry if my arrival bothers you. I'm here just to apologize to Ayu, I'm ready to take responsibility for my actions" Juan said politely. From the look of his face, it was seen that he regretted everything. But it can't change my heart that already hates it. "Sir, please give me a chance to make up for everything. I promise I will take full responsibility for all my actions."

"I'm sorry? After all the mess you did to Ayu. You know, before our family even though we were simple people but lived in peace until you changed everything. When we wanted justice, my husband and father-in-law went to jail. You shouldn't have to come here anymore because the sorry door was closed, except ..." Yuni hung up her words.

"Except what, ma'am? Let's say. Whatever it is, as long as I can make amends I will do" Juan said earnestly.

"Free my husband and my in-laws!" said mbak Yuni. "Why silence? You can't, can you? Your intention to make amends is just a joke, right?"

"alright. I promise you, they'll both be free soon." When Juan left, he promised to take care of everything so that father and father Judah could be free.

"It looks like he's really serious about helping us" Yuni said after Juan disappeared from our sight. "Yes, how well do you know him?"

I'm shaking. I never knew him or knew him. Just knowing that he's a troubled human is enough for me not to get close to him. Unfortunately, he even expressed his feelings for me, even he wanted to marry me. If you remember what he said at that time made me feel ready, why should I? I was not a popular girl in school. I was too busy pursuing accomplishments to ignore the students at my school. Not much I know other than my first-class friends, even the familiar ones are only a few.

Juan has truly kept his promise. He succeeded in getting father and father Yuda released. I don't know what he's doing. Unfortunately, what Juan did has not allowed us to forgive him. The father and father of Judah remained adamant to imprison the child even though the possibility was very small because he had a strong enough defender, especially his age was not even eighteen years, not yet legally old enough.

"Do not we should just solve this problem," suggested mbak Yuni, when we and our family consulted about the next step.

"Gini you know, mas. The boy was guilty, but he had already made you and Dad out of jail. However, we owe him a debt of gratitude" said Yuni.

"Hemmm," dad cleared his throat.

"What are you talking about, Yun? You know what he's done? It has destroyed the honor of this family! He committed a sin against the princess in this family. Now, you're asking us to end all this? Who started the first time? Him, that brat. He must be punished for his actions!" mas Yuda.

"But mas .. mas should also know who our opponent is. He is rich and has power. While we're nobody, ma'am. It all happened, what's wrong with forgiving. Forget everything and start a new leaf." pinta mbak Yuni.

"Can you talk like that? Tega you, Yun! He's already ruined Ayu's honor. You know, whoever dares to harass this family, then has to deal with me. Understand you!" mas Yuda is inflamed. The husband and wife were involved in a fight.

Actually Yuni spoke like that not because she didn't care about me. He was only afraid because he knew who our opponent was. Yuni felt it would only be futile to fight for everything because here, the rich and powerful will always win even if they are wrong.

"If you are afraid of defending the right just because we are not rich and have power, please return to your family, Yun. Whenever you want, I am ready to take you back because now I have to carry out my duties as a brother whose sister has been humbled by her honor!" mas Yuda.

"Astaghfirullah, what are you talking about? Why are people in this family suddenly unable to think clearly? What's still less living in jail for two days?" said mbak Yuni.

"What Judah said is true. If you cannot accept our decision to seek justice for Ayu, Judah is ready to take you back to your family, Yun." said the father, then got up leaving us all to his room.

"Yes Allah ..." Like shock at the words of my father, Yuni immediately sat down, before long tears flooded her cheeks. "I'm just trying to help this family not get in trouble anymore" he said.

"Have it, keep your advice. From now on, whenever you're leaving, I'm ready to take you." - Yuda followed Dad, he went into his room, leaving the three of us.

"See Yu .. everything got messed up because of you!" mbak Yuni.

"What's this boy talking about? Ayu is a victim, so don't blame her. Try to empathize or you can go back home. Mas Yuda is ready to deliver the bus whenever you want to." said Mbak Tika.

"Ckckck, it's easy to talk like that Tik. Just wait until you get hit by the stone!" threaten mbak Yuni's. He wiped his tears violently, then followed the mas Yuda into the room.
