"Assalamu'alaikum, Dad." Cansu walked up to Father, he hugged the middle-aged man he missed so much while shedding tears. Somehow the sadness poured in filled his chest cavity, and without planning his tears suddenly fell, soaking his beautiful face.
"Since when did your daughter turn into a whiny girl?" Dad said while stroking Cansu's long hair.
"By the way, when will my daughter wear a hijab?" Dad broke down his question again, this time more seriously. Cansu who was still in father's arms could only close his eyes, hinting not to know.
"Yes, I won't press. May God open your heart and mind so that you know how important it is to close it." Say it again before he lets go of his embrace.
"Cansu, I miss you honey." This time it was Mehek's turn to embrace Cansu, they were best friends but they were much closer than even brothers.
"He who? He looks clear, is he your future priest?" Mehek was too curious until he could not hold his lips to not ask, he whispered worryingly the handsome man behind Cansu heard his short speech.
"So you say, do you want to retire as my best friend?" Chirp Cansu while taking off Mehek's embrace.
Arsen who heard Cansu's words actually held back a laugh. He did not expect Cansu who he knew bluntly in front of him, turned out to do the same in front of the closest people.
He treats everyone the same way. Nice. Inner Arsen while staring in the other direction. He felt awkward, how else, now he was in a place he never predicted, wanted to leave was no longer able.
Five minutes later all the family members gathered in the living room. A sharp gaze greeted Cansu's arrival with a foreign man they had never seen before. Handsome and authoritative, at least that was what both of Cansu's parents could catch.
"When have you known my sister?"
"Remember, I haven't approved of your relationship!"
Whooo!
Arsen who was drinking water accidentally spewed out all the water in his mouth, he was surprised. His black net was rounded, he was still in shock and in disbelief at the words that the young man had just uttered in front of him. Now that Netra Arsen was hunting the face of Beautiful Cansu, they were staring at each other in silence. But their gaze explained that Arsen felt strange being in the middle of a family that liked to interfere.
"If you're still desperate to get close to my sister, you're gonna have to take the risk. First of all you have to pass the basic competency test in relationships. If you get away then you deserve to be on Cansu's side. But, if you're not worthy, then you should surrender willingly without doing any noise.
Just so you know, even if I look young, don't get me wrong. I have more than a dozen exes." I'm the young man Arsen knows as Cansu's younger brother.
Bukk!
Cansu threw a small pillow over his younger brother's face, making the young man's speech stifled in his throat. Arsen and everyone in the living room looked stifled with laughter at the adorable expression of Cansu's younger brother.
"Don't say much, and don't guess." Cansu said as he moved his hand, hinting silently.
"Mr Arsen, meet. He's both my parents. Aiman's father and Wilma's mother." Cansu began to introduce his parents. Father and Mother are introduced, both smiling while cupping both hands in front of the chest.
"The man sitting next to the young woman, his name is Mas Bram. My cousin. And that pretentious lady, her name is Mehek. My best friend, he lives here with us." Bram and Mehek take turns to treat Arsen. Even though he first met, the three did not feel sad.
"And him..." Cansu pointed at his younger brother.
"Haidar's name is my brother. He's kind of naughty, but he's got a good heart." Cansu said introducing all his family members.
"Dad, Mother, and all of you even more so you Mehek. Don't get me wrong because I brought the man home. The truth is, he's the son of the patient I'm dealing with. His name is Mr. Arsenio." Connect Cansu again. Two Art and one guard who had chatted with Cansu seemed to nod their heads slowly.
"I'm disappointed. I thought you were a couple. But really, you guys are so compatible." Chick Mehek tampa load.
"Mehek, shhhh!" The thumb placed an index finger on his lips, and Mehek suddenly fell silent. If it wasn't like that, the strange girl would have been torn about Cansu's thousands of kindnesses, she was always as excited as the person who was promoting soap ads.
"Haidar, take son Arsen to the guest room for a break. Son Arsen must be exhausted, we'll talk tomorrow morning." Mother's orders to her naughty son. There was no rebuttal from Haidar other than a slow nod of the head. Even though the boy looked naughty, he never once dared to argue with his parents.
Tonight the moon shines very brightly, its light able to illuminate the restless heart.
Yes, Cansu.
The girl was agitated, considering that her encounter with Austin after so many years had gone by again shattered her confidence. Cansu is sad, but he pretends to smile in front of his family, hoping that Austin's shadow doesn't affect his life which has just begun to be neatly arranged.
