The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

finally

In front of the waiting room door, Adel stopped his steps. Her eyes met Luki's eyes. Now she stared fixedly, the face of the man who would soon become her husband. Bu Lusi asks Luki to get closer to Adel.

Luki approached with an awkward feeling. He knows what Adel's principles are. He also knew how firm the woman's heart was. It was that firmness that made her perplexed when faced with a situation like this.

“What is Luki mas really ready, make marriage with Adel?” adel asked, after Luki was only one step ahead of him.

Luki did not immediately reply.His tongue was suddenly confused. Questions that come out at a very non-ideal time.

“If Adel asked all the guys, no one would say not ready. Everyone will say ready. Moreover, I” replied Luki diplomatically. Adel briefly smiled, hearing that answer.

“By Adel ask something?” ask Adel again.

“What?” sahut Luki's.

“Air in basin” reply Adel.

“One minute” reply Luki.

He walked quickly to the public bathroom, where he had taken a shower this morning. Soon Luki had returned with a basin filled with water.

“Silakan” said Luki while giving the basin filled with water to Adel.

“Thank you” says Adel.

Everyone wondered what the water in the basin was for. Moreover, Adel walked towards Ratih ma'am. Mrs Ratih scrunched her forehead. At once he remembered the actions of his eldest son, who washed his feet, and drank the water from the washing of his feet.

“Enggak” says bu Ratih, once Adel gets to her.

“Bu?” Adel was sad to get that rejection. Even when she hasn't spoken.

“Your mother deserves more of that honor. She gave birth to you” said Mrs Ratih.

“Allow Adel sungkem, bu” pinta Adel. Her crying broke instantly.

Mrs Ratih felt so wrong. She felt bad for Susan too. Finally he put both his palms into the water. He used it to wash his hands.

“Do not!” stop Ratih's mom, when Adel's gonna drink that water. Adel looked at Ratih's mother questioningly.

“Only your mother deserves that much respect” said Mrs Ratih.

Madam Ratih put her palms back into the water, then she rubbed her hands into Adel's face. He still has those tears flowing. Mrs Ratih also rubbed the water on Adel's head. Her hair was shiny because it was wet.

“Restu mom with you, nduk” says bu Ratih. Adel looked at the face of Ratih adhering to the face.

“We will always be brothers, even if not in the form of a daughter-in-law and in-law” continued Mrs Ratih.

Adel cried again. It was sad his heart. She also felt embarrassed to remember how she had been in conflict with this excellent mother before.

“Already, ask for the same blessing of your future in-laws!” pinta bu Ratih's.

She smiled as Adel looked at her. Still with tears in his eyes, Adel approached his future mother-in-law.

“Bu. Don't be angry, mom! Adel only pamit” said Adel lirih.

“Even proud mother with you, nduk. You did the thing that was supposed to be done” replied Miss Susan.

“Please pray blessing, ma'am. Also her guidance” pinta Adel.

Susan dipped her hand in the water and washed Adel's face and hair. He did that three times, just like you did.

“Restu mom with you, nduk” says mom Susan. Adel was still crying.

“Now, ask your mother for blessing!” pinta ma'am Susan.

Adel twisted his body. Now she's headed for her own mother. Without speaking, Adel immediately lowered his body. Understanding what her eldest daughter meant, Bu Lusi raised her right leg. He let Adel wash his feet. And also his left foot.

*Glek, glek, glek*.

Adel drank water from his mother's feet. Three sips he drank. Exactly along with the arrival of pak pengulu. Adel was shocked as he faced the ruler. It was not the prince who surprised him, but the Princess, who was also present in this place.

Although his eyes glazed, but the Princess gave a smile and nod her head. As a sign that he gave his permission. Madina approached and grabbed Princess' hand. Makes the Princess' attention distracted.

Without wasting any more time, after the permission of the doctor was obtained, some people who were interested in the qobul ijab went straight into the room where Mr. Fajar was. The rest watched from the waiting room.

The opening words and the introduction of the bride were started by pak pengulu. He also mentioned the guardian of marriage, dowry, and also witnesses. After all the things that must be in place when the ijab qobul is fulfilled, pak pengulu immediately held the ijab qobul.

With very simple circumstances, without preparation, even the two brides did not change clothes, the marriage contract was carried out. Right on the side of Mr. Fajar's bed

Adel was crying incessantly. His heart was broken, finding that he had to marry next to his father's body, which was helpless.

Pak Penghulu's hands and Luki's hands shake, meeting in the middle of Fajar's body. And the pengupulu said the ijab, representing the guardian, who was no longer able to marry his own daughter.

“I received marriage and marriage Adelia Fitri, binti pak Eka Fajar, with a gold dowry ring weighing ten grams paid in cash” said Luki memahut pak penghulu.

“How is the witness, legitimate?” ask pak penghulu.

“Saaaah”

*TAAARRR*

Elsewhere, Budi was surprised instead of playing, when suddenly the glass he lifted, the handle was broken. The hot tea he was about to drink, spilled, along with the ruptured glass hitting the floor. Lesehan lunch was stopped because of it.

The five friends were no less surprised. They got out of the way because the tea water started flowing into their position.

“Budd. You are not papa?”

Erika's greeting for the second time, successfully jerked Budi from his shock. For a few seconds he was frozen.

“Budd. Back off a little, man! I mop du”

Bayu reprimanded while brandishing the mop tool. Still looking surprised, Budi backed off some troubles. Hilda chuckled to see Budi ngesot.

“You why the hell, how weird is that?” ask Erika again.

“Neither. My feelings are not good” replied Budi.

“Alah. It's a feeling, Bud. Emang already this fatigue sih” sahut Deni. He pointed at the handle of the glass that Budi was still holding.

But Budi did not respond to Deni's jokes. He was stunned again, his mind was busy thinking about the sudden feeling of anxiety that came without any cause.

Regardless of Deni picking up the broken glass, Budi went to pick up his phone. He called his mother, but did not connect.

Many times he called back, but did not get a reception. He changed to the princess, his sister. But the fate is the same. Got no response at all.

*Don't have anything in common Mr. Fajar*.

Switch to calling Adel. Until a dozen times he tried, there was still no answer. He turned to Madina. Madina also did not respond to him at all. My feelings are becoming more and more anxious.

“Mas, eat first, yuk!” bring Ratna.

Ever since they were trapped in Berlin, eating events held together seemed to be customary, to better familiarize with each other. I looked at Ratna for a moment. Then the pandagan turned to where they had eaten. It turned out to be clean, back as it was. Budi felt guilty, as a cause, did not even come to clean up the mess earlier.

“Iya” reply Budi short.

Although his heart was still worried, but he did not feel good if he refused Ratna's invitation.

“I am not menggeledek hunchmu, Bud” said Deni. The one who just sat, looked at him.

“I also never mergerasain it” continued Deni.

“Terus?” ask Budi.

“Sori yes, Bud. I do not mean to ngeledek” replied Deni.

“Iya. I'm sorry too. Udah do, but do not want responsibility” said Budi.

“Tuh, ibbak. Did I say” chirps Hilda, pointing at Erika.

“Apaan?” ask Erika.

“Nevent mind, too deket same Budi. The turn has broken, left to go” Hilda replied.

“Buskey. That elastic, can it break?” ask Budi.

“Well, loh. How can you say elastic? Hayo loh” sahut Hilda.

“Lu said what, anyway?” ask Erika.

“Ha ha ha. Yes it is, do not want to take responsibility” Hilda's responsibility.

“Udah hit, kayaknya” guess Deni.

“Heeh” suhut Budi.

*PLAAAK*

“ADOO. Why nabok?” exclaim Budi shocked. Suddenly, her thighs were pierced by Erika with her fast.

“Do not slander, lu!”

“What is slander?”

“Ya heeh earlier, what does it mean?”

“Emang lu nanya whatan, den?” ask Budi to Deni.

“Ha ha ha ha. Yes it is, the elastic”

“Ah. Kirain lu speaking pete. Really nih” exclaimed Budi while showing pete stuck in his teeth.

“Hempf. Ha ha ha ha ha”

Deni, Bayu, and Ratna laughed and saw pete in Budi's teeth.

“Who's work, put pete on anointing? Intention really ngisengin gua” gerutu Budi.

“Ha ha ha ha”

They laugh more and more. Erik finally laughed. The misgivings in Budi's heart had subsided with the jokes of his friends. At least until the lunch is over.
