Sons & Daughters

Decisions

The morning has arrived. I say goodbye to Rena and want to go home. Today I will say my decision. Rena intended to take me home, but I refused. I don't want to trouble him anymore. The taxi drove me to feel a little calm. I prayed all the way home, I hope this is a wrong decision. A beautiful spiny red plant was seen in front of me and the taxi stopped. At the door of the house, my mother was waiting for me with a plastic bag in her hand. I then walked over to kiss my mom's hand.

"You're ready, baby" asked Mama

I took a breath and threw it away slowly "Yes mama, the Princess is ready."

My feet stepped towards the room and wore the clothes that my mother was holding. Blouse in red wrapped with a soft alloy of light green color. I feel like a rose bud ready to bloom. My mother came into my room and held my shoulder.

"You look so beautiful, dear" said Mama

"Thank you mama" I said

"I'm sorry for making this match with you" continued Mama with a gloomy look

"Don't feel guilty, Princess. This mama did for the sake of the Princess right?"

my word

Mama held back her cries and stroked my head with a warm touch

"Of course, baby."

"Mama, I beg you not to be angry if my decision makes you disappointed" I said

Mama then hugged me from behind and whispered "Mama can only give you a choice, but you're the one who decides, because this is your life, son."

The sound of a horn sounded right in front of the house. I can already guess who that is. Reyhan and his father. My mom called me out of the room. Reyhan's father shakes hands with papa and mama. I sat beside my mother. I dare not look at Reyhan and bow. The pair of leather shoes he was wearing looked brand new in polish. I pulled both sides of my lips up so he wouldn't think I was arrogant.

"Son Reyhan please sit here" said Papa.

Reyhan sat opposite me while his father sat opposite Papa. Mama then went to the kitchen to get a drink and immediately sat down next to me.

"Daughter, today we came here to hear your decision" cried Om Adinata, Reyhan's father to me.

"I've made up my mind, but before that I want to ask Reyhan" I said

"Please" continued Om Adinata

I braced myself to look at Reyhan's face. He looked tense and a little pale. Wearing the same clothes the first time he came.

"Reyhan why do you want to be paired with me" I asked him

"Because I want to always protect you" he replied without hesitation

I then rounded my resolve and took a deep breath. Then take it out of my little hole.

"I decided that I accepted being paired with Reyhan" I cried to her surprise

Reyhan then looked at me in disbelief. As if he felt this was impossible. We just had a fight yesterday. He tried to wake himself up by pinching the back of his hand. No, it's not a dream. The look of happy faces on both my parents and Reyhan's father. They look very happy, because soon it will be a family. I then showed Reyhan my sincere smile. Made her involuntarily mutter "You look so graceful like a freshly bloomed rose this morning."
