" Barra had thought about Abah, Barra was determined to propose to Alira."
" does Alira know before, son".
" barra has said it before with alira Abah.
" Mommy, Alira never talked to my mom".
" no bah, did not say at all". mother was confused, inwardly happy but in disbelief also Barra proposed to alira.
" I am Abi Barra and this is um Barra, we specifically came here to propose to nak alira". Abah just believed that barra was serious about his words.
" to be honest we don't believe in all this, sorry we're just ordinary people and alira ..."
" That we came here with good intentions, do not tell an ordinary person or alira an ordinary girl.we are also ordinary people Abah, whether this good will Abah reject, Abah refused, it doesn't seem ethical. My brother came all the way for the sake of launching this intention".
" Thank you for visiting our hut, Mr. Ma, sorry it is up to Alira's decision we have no right because Alira will undergo it. Mak call alira ". mother then back to see Alira who is still lying counting rambutan leaves.

Alira was shocked to see Barra, Ustadz Yusuf and his wife and the two middle-aged people who Alira did not know who it was. Alira then Salim, the nether met briefly with Barra. quickly he lowered his head it felt like his heart was about to plummet turned barra serious with his speech.
" Kid us parents of Barra I abinya and this um Barra. Our arrival has good intentions to propose to nak alira ". Alira turned to Barra.
" According to what I said yesterday alira, I was serious about bringing my parents here"., Barra said, then she knew that she was confused and panicked.

" kid Abah's afraid you won't agree".
" whatever Abah alira's decision will agree". said alira lowered her head, she was afraid of disappointing her brother.alira had just finished the exam even though his diploma had not been shared even though it was certain he would pass.
" even though Abah accepted the nak barra "Abah explained to alira, so that Abah was not wrong with Abah's words.
" yes Abah whatever Abah says Alira will follow".
He looked at his mother, afraid to make a decision. Barra on the other end was still anxious, he was thinking so that Abah could accept him.
" How is this Mak".
" if you agree with Abah, we will get son-in-law nak ustadz. is it appropriate for us to reject the bah."..
" so let's just accept Mak". Mom nodded.
" Because Alira has made her decision in accordance with our decision, so by saying bismillah we received a proposal from nak barra ".
" Alhamdulillah, "all said, Barra was relieved that one problem had been resolved.
" How alira you want to get married". alira just nodded, Barra looked at alira actually he felt sorry should he enjoy adulthood not have to take care of husband.
" thank you Abah for accepting our son Barra". Abah nodded.
" let's have Mr. Bu at the meal, here's the cake in the village.

" Thank God if you like". They enjoyed the cake while chatting casually.
Alira just swiped her hand she was embarrassed, confused but indeed this is what she must accept.alira pity her parents as well as the old ustadz Barra if to bear the shame.
" oh yes about when our child will be married ".
" immediately Abi, it is better soon we will do a akad. barra do not want if there will be maksiat considering my student alira also we are one village, barra has not finished serving here."
" it turns out that this uncle's nephew is impatient apparently" said ustadz Yusuf. barra smiled.
Actually that's not what Barra meant, he must have proof if he and alira get married before the villagers next door gang up to come to this village.
" How Abah, when will it be carried out". Abah turned to look for an answer.
" The reception could be next time the important thing is that we legitimate our children first, so that there is no slander. let alone barra an ustadz and alira are his students".
" It's good next week".
" Abah's day after tomorrow, Barra will be busy next Sunday with the 10th grade and eleven final semester replays ".
" How is Abah also alira".
" kak alira how ". alira nodded again, he knew what Ustadz Barra meant. The worry will be visited by the next village people crossed again.
After talking quite a lot then barra's parents came home.they said goodbye, umi hugged her son-in-law's alira. Usually the child alira bar-bar but tonight 180 degrees alira changed a little calm.just a little because his actions were not in accordance with his conscience, the marriage he did not want and dream of with Ustadz Barra. but how else alira must resign for the good name of these two families.
Before riding in the car as the driver Barra looked towards the sad-faced alira, no veins of happiness radiated within him. Precisely there Barra was very sorry for Alira, if at this time he could want to come closer and say if everything would be fine.
