Akmar Ask for Restu

Mikail took Akmar up to the third floor, when passing through Naura's room whose door was open, Mikail immediately pulled Akmar slowly to speed up his steps

"Sorry it's my room, I don't want you to see it not hijab"

Akmar smiled understandingly, and quickened his pace. He heard Naura chatting with Defne

Mikail took Akmar to the balcony, and soon he pulled out two chairs

"My mother's favorite place" he said with a stale

Again Akmar smiled stiffly

"I'm sorry if I took my sister here"

Mikail's forehead immediately wrinkled when he heard Akmar call it "sister"

"Ehm, sorry, I don't think our age is much different, it's better to just call my name, I'm Mikail" Mikail said as she extended her hand

"Akmar" welcome Akmar

"I often hear Mother and others calling you sister, which is why I follow along"

Mikail smiled

"That's their dear call on me, um by the way, I just saw you, it looks like you're not the one here"

"Right, I'm from Pekanbaru"

Mikail quickly turned her head and looked deeply at Akmar

"New week?"

Akmar nodded slowly

"Are you the one who when I finished High School want to take my ayuk taaruf???"

Back Akmar nodded slowly. His face immediately turned tense to hear Mikail's question

"Kok you know?" ask Akmar doubtfully

Mikail smiled half-collared

"Everything related to my ayuk, I know. Because the people tell me"

Akmar laughed embarrassedly while lowering his face

"So, what should I call you?, brother?"

"Akmar is okay"

"Ah, that's not polite"

Both then laughed.

Naura who was inside the room heard laughter from the balcony that forced her down from the bed and peeked

Naura quickly turned her body back when she saw Mikail chatting with Akmar

"Do you want Akmar to talk to his brother" he murmured

"What's wrong ukhti?" asked Defne who knew she was standing next to him

Naura quickly withdrew Defne's hand, led her back into the room and locked the door

While Akmar and Mikail still seemed to chat casually until finally Akmar expressed his intention

"Actually I want to talk to you about something"

Mikail immediately put on a serious face for her to see if Akmar's face was also serious and a little tense

"Actually since almost five years ago, my family and I have invited Naura taaruf, even when my papa mama spoke directly to my mother and mother, nek nang, but at that time Naura refused on the grounds that she still wanted to pursue her goal of becoming a midwife"

"And at that moment I promised if I would continue to wait until he was ready for me to take taaruf"

"When the grand opening of the clinic yesterday, I came. And I also had the opportunity to chat with your late father"

Mikail's face immediately gasped to hear if Akmar had also spoken to his father

"At that time Pak Andi gave everything to Naura, and whatever decision Naura he would support and he also once said to me, if he wanted when Naura married later, he became her guardian"

"And now that he is dead, and you are the oldest son of this family, so I again ask for your permission and blessing to allow me to take Naura taaruf back"

Mikail was silent at Akmar's words. In men, he admitted the gentle attitude of Akmar who dared to ask for his father's blessing and also to him

Especially after he heard himself if almost five years ago Akmar was waiting for Naura's approval

"But I am here only as a brother, a man who will continue to protect and risk his life for our sake, when it comes to matters of the heart, let alone future affairs for a household, let alone a household, all I leave to Ayuk Naura"

"I cannot decide to agree with the taaruf that my brother said if my father refused, and I cannot immediately refuse to disagree because I do not know and hear my answer directly"

"So sorry brother Akmar, I have not been able to draw conclusions, everything I will ask with Ayuk Naura, and maybe later In Syaa Allh we will take a family first"

"So again, I'm sorry, bang, not that I refused, but I have to talk to my father first"

Akmar nodded his head in disdain, realizing that all this must be discussed first, especially on Naura, because all decisions are yes and nothing on Naura

"Then thank you so much, brother, for taking the time to chat with me"

Mikail nodded while smiling

"Oh yeah, I heard Army brother, huh?" ask Akmar to melt his mood

"Yes" Mikail replied with a smile

"All of our ideals were the embodiment of our delusion when we were little" Mikail continued, looking straight ahead

"If my brother is doing what?"

"I work in papa's office, yes itung-itung help papa lah"

"Great dong, can work with his parents, not far like me"

Both of them laughed again

"Sorry, if I may know, where do you work?"

"In the government, because by chance papa is the number one person in Pekanbaru"

"Wow.." answered Mikail reflexes.

"That means political brother dong?"

They both laughed again.

Naura who listened to their laughter was increasingly curious, her intention that had since wanted to sleep until it was abandoned because she was so curious

"Tomorrow before dawn I have to go back to Jakarta again, and the possibility of our chat tonight will I convey to the big family via video call, do not papakan?"

Akmar nodded

"I also go home tomorrow because I'm only given three days' permission by papa"

"How about tomorrow we go home together?, brother came home through Jakarta, how about?"

Akmar seemed to think for a moment, because the original plan was for him to go home through Bengkulu again

"Come on, let's get along" Mikail persuaded

Akmar smiled and immediately agreed and was greeted with chuckling laughter from Mikail

"By the way, let me be a hafidzah, so of course the criteria of her ideal husband is a hafidz as well and her religious knowledge must be much higher than her"

Actually Mikail deliberately said that sentence because she wanted to know more deeply how the religious character of the man in front of her at this time.

He did not want her to choose the wrong companion

"Alhamdulillah when we were both in the pesantren I and Naura were the best santriwan and santriwati hafidz graduates"

Smile immediately expands on Mikail's lips, at least one point has been obtained by Akmar to make Mikail consider how it will proceed

"Well, if there's nothing else you'll tell me, we go down now, or we just take a break? I'm sure you're tired"

Akmar did not answer Mikail's words, he immediately stood up

"Wait a minute" he said as he immediately ran into Adam's room not far from the balcony

Mikail stared dumbly when she saw Akmar enter her sister's room

Before long Akmar had appeared again with a small box in his hand

"Please tomorrow or sometime, this brother love is the same Naura" said Akmar gave a transparent white box like a crystal to Mikail's hand

"This what?"

"Gift for Naura's birthday, I know she had her 13th birthday"

Mikail seemed to nod and took turns staring at the small box by looking at Akmar who was back with a tense face
