Sincerity of Love JONATHAN

267. Robert was not feeling well

"You're a kid and you're still in college, I don't allow it!" firm Dad Cakra.

"21 That one ain't no kid anymore, Dad. Huge already. And even after marriage, I can still go to college."

"No! Can't!" Cakra's father shook his head in disagreement.

"Who is it, the man who's coming to propose to you, Nay? Do we know him?" mother Noni asked curiously, then held her husband's hand. Hold him back when the man is about to stand up. "Later on, Dad, we'll listen to Naya's story in detail."

"I don't know, you know him or not. But his name is Jonah, Bun. And I have a picture of her, maybe you want to see her face. The handsome man, white also and God willing diligently worship." Naya reached into her sleeping bag to pick up the phone, coincidentally while in mall—dia and Ustad Yunus had a photo together for the first time. And Naya was the one who invited him first, though timidly.

"Yes, handsome turns out to be the guy, Well .. quite mature as well." Mother Noni watched, as did Father Cakra. "How old is he, Nay?"

"37, Bun."

"Definitely well established," replied Mother Noni, then looked at her husband. "Allow it first, Dad ... Jonah is here to come. Mother wants to see it directly."

"But I don't agree, if Naya's married for now, Bun!" firmly Father Cakra was angry, then glanced at his son. "Dad wants him to reach his goals first! Kan Naya said it herself if you want to be a doctor, how the hell?"

"If Jonah is waiting for you to graduate, what about Nay? Want him? And how long does ... do you know each other? Is there a year of dating?" Mother Noni looked at the child.

"Bang Yunus and I knew each other for a month, Bun. And we're not dating, but ta'aruf" Naya explained. "I don't know either, Bun ... Bang Yunus wants to wait for me to graduate from college. For sure it will be a long time, and he himself seems to want to get married now-now. Because he himself once said .. if he was looking for a companion."

"Find another woman, don't be like you!" firm Dad Cakra.

"Oh then you try to ask the same Jonah, Nay. Inevitably she waited for you," advised Mother Noni who sounded appreciative of her son's request, rather than her husband who was already emotional first.

"Mother, there's no need to hope that." Cakra's father seems to dislike the wife's response. He should have agreed with her. "Partially we also have to be picky when looking for a prospective daughter-in-law. Naya is our only daughter. Must be a perfect guy who can be with her. If it's just a handsome model .. out there that's a lot!"

"But, Yeah ... Naya is a girl. It's only natural that there are men who want to propose to her, so we should allow the man to come in the form of appreciating."

"What will come if we reject the end? It's a waste of time his name, Bun. Anyway, I don't agree! Point!" he was furious, stood up and left both of them.

Mother Noni sighed, while Naya herself displayed a sad face mixed with disappointment.

"You don't feel sad, Nay." Mother Noni slowly grabbed the child's hand, then gently stroked it. "Later Mother will persuade Father, that he may allow Jonah to propose to you."

"But if you've been applying to continue to be rejected how, Bun?" Naya looks sad. "That's the same hurt Bang Jonah. I don't want to" he shook his head.

"Just try it first, Nay, maybe Dad changed his mind. The name is love 'is it requires sacrifice, so it does not matter according to Mother."

"Mother herself agreed, right, same Bang Jonah? Suppose he was my husband?"

"As long as he is good and well-established, Mother actually agrees. Especially if you already love each other," replied Mother Noni.

"When do you mean you have a job, right?"

"Yes." Yeah." Mother Noni nodded. "Have a steady job with a big paycheck, Nay."

"What a big salary?!" Naya rounded her eyes, and immediately remembered about the work of Ustad Jonah.

Not to underestimate the salary of a mosque marbot, but he himself is not sure that his salary can be said to be large like an established person.

'About...if Mommy knew the work of Bang Yunus a mosque marbot, he would agree no, yes, and whether a marbot can be said to be a person who has an established job? I don't know, ' Inner Naya hesitated.

"Whose problem was it, Bun?" Naya doesn't seem to understand.

"Who wants to wait for you or not. If he really wants ... directly tell Mommy, let Mommy persuade your Dad."

"Yes, Bun." Naya nodded slowly. Mother Noni also stepped away from her and headed upstairs, where her room was.

'Tomorrow I ask to see Bang Yunus again, to talk about this, ' Inner Naya, then open her phone and send a chat to Ustad Yunus. It's just that the chat only ticks one.

"It looks like Bang Yunus is sleeping."

Next day.

After bathing and performing the Fajr prayer together with the Umi, Ustad Yunus also turned on his phone. Then turn on the mobile data as well so that he also gets some incoming chat.

There are three chat and from different people. Mr. RT, Papi Yohan and Naya. And the first person he opened his chat was definitely Naya, because according to Ustad Jonah he was the most important.

[Bang .. If there's time, tomorrow I'll see you. Can it?] It was a chat last night, but it's only opening now.

[Sorry, Nay, it seems like we can't see you today. Because there happened to be mass circumcision in the mosque, and I was appointed by Mr. RT to be his role model.]

[Tomorrow, yes, we'll see you all day.]

Ustad Jonah replied at once two. Then switch to open a chat from Pak RT.

[Ustad, later after breakfast ... to my house first, yes, help bring gifts for circumcised children.]

[Good, sir.] Ustad Jonah replied.

Finally, a chat from Papi Yohan was opened.

[Good morning handsome Boy .. See you at 8, yeah!]

[Good morning too, Mom. Ready ... I wait for Om. Don't forget to wear gloves and Koko's clothes, Om.] Ustad Jonah replied.

[Okkeeee handsome 😚.]

7 Hours after breakfast... Joe, Syifa and Robert were both in the car they were in. The three were going to play at Abi Hamdan's house, as he asked Syifa yesterday.

"Mom .. We go to Opa Hamdan and Oma Maryam's house, what do we want?" asked Robert who somehow suddenly felt bad. His heart was pounding not because of his taste.

"And yesterday Mommy said, Son. Indeed, you yourself do not miss, yes, the same Opa Hamdan?" Syifa swiped the peak at Robert. The boy is now on his lap.

"Kangen anyway, Mom. But somehow, suddenly Robert's feeling is not good, huh? Weird."

...Premonitions to be circumcised like, Rob, 🤣...
