Shut up, for you
.............
Today looks so bright.
The sky is blue, the clouds are white with blinding sunlight.
Iris is out of the hospital now. Finally, air contaminated with the aroma of drugs is now turned into an urban aroma with air pollution that is increasingly crashing the ozone layer.
But in spite of all that, there are many things to be grateful for. One of them is he who can still breathe freely without any tools.
Ice was in a car that was now traveling at speed was splitting the road to his house. He kept staring at the window, many things he had been thinking about for the past few days. Now I think the ice looks calmer.
"Ais, we'll be here soon. Last time I asked Ais, I also apologized for not being able to take care of Ais for a few days. But today I'm home too." Hearing her Mother's words Ais simply nodded. But in his heart, he actually felt very sad. He understood his hardworking father. But sometimes he also feels jealous of the work of the Father, because it seems that the work is much more important than him.
Mother Sofi looked at her daughter, she seemed to understand what her daughter felt. Until Mother Sofi also chose silence.
Now the car carrying Ais and her mother is parked in the yard of their house.
Ice down from the car followed by the Mother.
Shortly after, other cars were parked in their yards. And that's Dad's car. The ice turned towards the slowly opening car door. Seeing the figure of the father who came out of the car Ais tried to smile. Showing that he is okay.
Mr. Hasan approached his daughter and hugged and kissed her daughter's forehead. Ais just smiled accepting the treatment of the Father. At least the father was always sweet to her.
"Where are you doing, son? is everything all right?" asked Mr. Hasan to his daughter.
"It's okay Dad." Smiling.
"Yaudah, let's go inside. There's something I want to talk to you about." embracing her daughter.
They went in and chose to sit in the family room.
"Dad you want to say, is it Ais?" Ice starts the conversation.
"hmm so dear, about the plan of the same Mother's father before." Mr. Hasan looks very cautious talking to his daughter.
"Dad, maybe this issue should be discussed later. Let Ais rest first." continued Mother Sofi.
"It's okay, Mother. So what's Dad?" ais Pinta.
Mr. Hasan looked at his daughter for quite a while, as if this conversation would be very heavy for him as well as the princess for sure. After a moment of silence, Mr. Hasan continued his talk.
"Look son, about the matchmaking between you and his son Father's best friend. The youngest child is willing to marry you. What do you think is ice?" Hearing that Ais fell silent, Ais did not know who the youngest child of her father's best friend was. All he knew was Agam the son of his mother's friend.
Seeing the silent Ice, the Father tried to convince.
"You take it easy, son, Dad's best friend's son is good. He is also responsible. When compared to his older brother, he was much wiser and more reliable. And I'm sure he can take good care of you." His father's explanation made Ais think of someone. But he quickly tried to get rid of his thoughts about the person.
"This is how Dad is. I'm sure Dad's choice is the best option. But what about the Ice School, Dad?" Ais could only accept the decision of the Father, at least one day there would be someone she could rely on, he thought.
"You take it easy, school matters let me take care of you. And tonight you're ready, because they're going to go to your house and look at you." explained the father.
"Well well, if that's how Ais went to the room first." after saying goodbye Ais directly walked to his room on the 2nd floor.
"Dad, is what we're doing right?" ask Mother Sofi to her husband.
"You take it easy, Bun, I believe this is the best decision for our son." Hasan explained to his wife.
Inside the room, Ais laid her body on the mattress by staring at the ceiling. His feelings cannot be explained in words. What was very certain that he felt was, now his heart was very broken.
How not, when he had to get married at this early age with the status of still in school. And after that, his parents will leave him again. But as a child, Ais did not want to disappoint her parents. Until he chose to follow all the wishes of his parents, although sometimes it must hurt himself.
Day changes night. There was a noise from the direction of the kitchen, hearing that Ais who had wanted to go to the kitchen to take a drink now her steps stopped. But after a while he continued his footsteps towards the kitchen.
"Nothing bik, just take a drink. What event do you want? how come the afternoon cooking is not finished yet?" tanyakanya.
"This is non, said the madam there will be a guest soon to come. Hence the madam asked for some food to be eaten." hearing that Ais just nodded in understanding.
Mother helps arrange food on the dining table, because soon guests will come.
"Dear, aren't you ready yet? your guests will be coming soon. Beautiful Dandan there." Sofi's mother orders her daughter.
"Hmm yes mother." Ice went to her room.
Not long after that, the sound of a car entering the yard of the family home of Mr. Hasan. Hearing that, Mr. Hasan also the wife picked up the guest who had been waiting for.
"Assalamualaik." Greetings were heard from a middle-aged man followed by his wife and two sons.
"Waalaikumsalam, MaasyaAllah the long-awaited guest has finally arrived" Mr. Hasan made small talk.
"Alhamdulillah finally arrived." Reply Mr. Faiz who is now embracing the shoulders of his best friend.
"Let's go in, when we want to be at the door." Mr. Hasan invited his guests to come in and took them to sit in the guest room for a while while waiting for dinner time.
Mother Sofi and Mami Dian were seen busy chatting from their arrival. While their two sons just silence and occasionally whisper to see the behavior of their parents who seem to forget their children.
"Oh yes, Adam same Agam how are you? We haven't met for a long time. Both of you are getting better and better Is." Hearing the greeting, both of them smiled.
"Well that's how it is, and the other one is getting married when it still looks like a leak." Ledek Papi Faiz on Agam. Hearing that Agam was a little misbehaved, because not usually the Papi this familiar to him. Mr. Hasan laughed at his best friend's joke.
"You are not so my man-to-be." hearing that the two middle-aged men laughed.
"Oh yeah Bun, where's the ice?" asked Mr. Hasan to his wife who was busy talking to his best friend to forget the main character of the event tonight.
"Oh yes until forget, for a moment Dian I call Ais first." and was embraced by Mami Dian.
Agam who heard it looked nervous, Adam who realized it was nudging Agam's arm.
"why do you, afraid your key is the same as a future wife?" ledek Adam to his sister.
"What the hell lo brother." looks like.
Mr. Hasan also Mr. Faiz is still busy with their discussion about work with Mami Dian who also participated in the conversation. Adam and Agam listened carefully. Although Adam did not understand what they were talking about because he was not at all interested in business.
The ice and and the Mother are now walking towards the living room where the guests are. Agam who turned his head towards the two women had now lowered his gaze.
"MaasyaAllah why can be so beautiful." Inner Agam.
Both of them sat next to Mami Dian. It looks like Adam is nodding looking at Ais, I don't know what he's thinking.
"MaasyaAllah is very beautiful going to aunt's daughter-in-law." praise Mami Dian on Ice.
"Thank you aunt." smiling kindly.
"This is your daughter Hasan, my daughter's pantas sure very keen marriage, wong your son as beautiful as this." praise Mr. Faiz on the son of his best friend.
"You could be Faiz. Well obviously my son is beautiful, just look what his father is like." Hasan said to his best friend and they laughed.
"Jude, rather than fuss because my son is beautiful. As soon as we go to dinner, everything is ready. Let's." hail Mother Sofi to her guests.
Finally they ate the dinner with wisdom. Occasionally throwing jokes.
Until dinner was over and they seemed to be talking about something serious.
