The Heart of Raisya

Old album

When I got home, I was welcomed by my parents. They seem to miss me too.

"Cock your cursory boy? it's not regular eating, is it?"

"Regular with noodles, but because many activities so maybe soybeans as well. Ummi's the same Abi's healthy right?"

"Yes, thank God we are healthy, yes we have a rest first. You must be Rai's soybean."

"Yes once mi, Rai went into the room first huh."

I went into the room and got ready to take a shower. After wearing my pajamas I took a nap. It felt like a long time ago I left my bed, but not for two months. I slept well until I woke up at 4 p.m.

"Take your lunch, this is Ummi masakin sambal your favorite squid."

"Thank you Ummi, Rai misses Ummi's cooking." I sit down and eat at the dinner table. Ummi cuisine is delicious.

After eating I washed the old dishes I ate just now. Then I went into the room again. I separated my dirty clothes that I had separated from the crackle from the suitcase. I also rearranged my clean clothes into the closet. Put some books into the nightstand. And as I was about to close it, I saw an album that I was supposed to throw away. My wedding album. I took it and looked at the contents. On this album there is a picture of Grandma too. Grandma never wanted to be photographed. This is the only memory of grandma photos other than the photo of the time when the young grandmother first went on Hajj. Once I find my soul mate, I'll throw away pictures of my ex-husband. I kept the album back.

I looked at my HP and I opened an album on HP. I don't want to leave a photo of Andi there. I deleted everything. Still excited by the words of dawn. I hate this feeling, I should never have accepted it.

Oh my God, please remove this feeling. I don't want to drag on in heartache.

"Sir, what else?"

"It's sorted out."

"Do you need my help?"

"Where are you going to be beautiful?"

"You go with Mas Irfan looking for the Ring mbk."

"Oh yes mbak to forget, your engagement day after tomorrow right? but not last night?"

"Yes, we want to look in the gold shop in the city. It wasn't there until night."

"Oh yeah be careful, take care of yourself too. Greetings to Irfan"

"Ready baby, I want to go first. Looks like there's a sound of the car stopping, .Maybe Mas Irfan has come."

Because of my grief, I forgot my sister's happy day. The day after tomorrow is Sofi's engagement. Of course tomorrow there will be a lot of preparation that we will do. Irfan is a young entrepreneur. Although his efforts are small, but he has proven his persistence. He has several cafes, and a distro. His age is the same as mine, but Irfan who in fact is the son of a rich man he runs a business with capital to borrow from his parents. However, he does not depend on his parents. He returned it after three years of pioneering his efforts. That was Sofi's story to me back then.

Sofi is lucky to be loved by the right people. It's not a matter of possessions, but rather of feelings. My parents never looked at property. What matters to them is their responsibility. Can love his son sincerely.What else they were afraid to let go of us married. They don't want things to happen again. So Ummi and Abi free us to choose our own partner.

"She's!" call Ummi from my doorstep.

"Yes, ummi just come in."

"Nak Ummi wants to talk to you, Ummi hope you understand."

"What is Ummi?"

"Lusa kan Sofi fiancee, a few days ago the old man Irfan came here again. They want to arrange the wedding of Sofi and Irfan next month. We as women would agree. Because your abu also thought they should be married off. If it is halal, we feel relieved. Go wherever they are free. You know for yourself that your sister is different from you, kind of hard to say."

"The problem is your sister is talking to you. He feels bad Rai, he wants to wait for you to marry again he said."

"Later let Raisya himself tang say the same Sofi, all nasehatin he Ummi."

"Thank you Rai for understanding. Ummi just wants the best for you. If you have a candidate too, tell us. Ummi would be happy if the children of Abi and Ummi find their happiness."

Ummi's words seemed to be a great hope. I know my parents must be worried about me.

"Sorry Ummi, Raisya has not thought of finding a candidate. Raisya will focus on thesis preparation. Just pray that Raisya will find a good mate, and at the right time."

"Surely, son, just as long as you don't close yourself. We're just afraid you're traumatized by your marriage, son."

"No ummi, Rai's not traumatized. It's just that Rai will be more careful to choose."

"Yes, Ummi is the same as Abi to go out first. There are some things to buy. Can I have your aunt Rai pick up tomorrow?"

"Can ummi, tomorrow morning Rai will pick up aunty."

Ummi came out of my room. Ummi and Abi go together, there is only me at home alone. I am brave as well. Even when the pesantren I was often shown invisible creatures.

Around 8pm Ummi and Abi arrived. 10 Minutes later, Sofi arrives with Irfan. I helped Ummi get the groceries out of the car. There are cake ingredients, rice, and other necessary items.

"It's still not shopping in the market tomorrow Rai. Seasonings, meat, vegetables, I think should ummi note. Let's tell tomorrow ummi people just special shopping to the market."

"Yes ummi better be so, Ummi at home alone, prepare the others."

"Yes Ummi also has a neighbor's law to help from tomorrow."

I saw Irfan coming home to say goodbye to Abi. Because ummi and I are in a scene in the family. Sofi came in to us.

"A lot of money bought."

"This is not tomorrow Sof, the invitation is from here 50 people, maggots from Irfan's side. He said about 100 people. Got Sof's ring?"

"I have, I choose 5 grams. Mas Irfan bought titanium material, afraid of haram he said. Guys can't get gold."

"That bill dik," I confirm.

"Yes there pray first you Sof, will fall asleep again."

"Yes, um, dear." Ummi just bobbing heads looking at Sofi's behavior.

Sofi is taller than me. Our skin is the same, but Sofi has a sharp nose and flattened eyes. He tends to look like Ummi. I look more like Abi.

After we finished delivering the groceries, we stopped. And enter into each kmar. I'm going to bed soon, because tomorrow there will be a lot of work at home.
