"Sha.. yuk out". Indira took me for a walk at night to get around looking for entertainment in the city of Cirebon.
The conversation with his father made his mind even more chaotic, not to mention because of unexpected surprises, all mixed up in his head. Going long was useless, he could not win an argument with his father.
Not far from his father's house Indira, there is a special entertainment and snack center that is only opened in the afternoon until late at night, different from the usual foodcourt. Joyful Colonies name the area in this residential neighborhood for a young woman who is happy with the glamorous life of a child metropolitan Jakarta.
There are many bars, lounges, and night entertainment such as discos, the three of us prefer an antique home concept cafe with many ornaments filled with high-quality antiques, more like a museum. From paintings, jars and some other items that have historical value plastered in all corners, it looks festive and also luxurious.
"So, what are your plans for tomorrow?". Finna asked the two of us who were still in a daze because of the attitude of Indira's parents who managed to make a dizzy head because of her sudden proposal advised us to get married immediately.
"Don't know fin". Indira answered, his body was weakly stunned by the sofa chair in this cafe.
In contrast to the atmosphere outside, inside the cafe is very calm, my goal is to hear the strains of The Beatles song, melodious and soothing.
Nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields

"I think your father has a point".
"Haaaaa?" finna and I were shocked by her. Finna suddenly confirmed the proposal of Indira's father.
"Look yes, you have known each other for quite a long time and are suitable as a couple. there is no harm if you get married, anyway sooner or later you also have to get married too. unless you're just messing around.". Finna talks about it almost the same as her father Indira also said, I thought the same thing.
It is not impossible if tomorrow I immediately marry indira, after all my girlfriend's family has certainly agreed, the problem is now in indira. Whether or not, he decides and I follow his decision later.
”Sorry waiting, here's the order. Anyone want to order again ?" said the waiter who delivered our order.
"No thanks mas" said Finna chimed in the waiter who was right standing next to him.
For a long time we were silent without conversation, busy with each device.I also play games, because I no longer know what to talk about. If my decision is held, I must be more following the will of his father Indira also follow Finna's advice. After all we are close and already equally comfortable, sooner or later must be married unless one of them does not want a marriage.
”Sha, you even play games, so how is this business" this Indira if it is upset, so strange and often funny because of his panicked attitude.
"yes, how do you think?" I asked without looking back at her at all.
”Yes I want to get married, tomorrow or whenever you're the same I want to"
"Just how about you, do not have to invite your parents, you have never introduced your family sha.” maybe what is meant by indira, indira, if married the parents of the groom must also come and give his blessing. But that's just the custom.
”Dira.
”You know. such basic knowledge just do not know". Finna began to solicit with the attitude of Indira who does not understand the things around marriage.
"Oh can be so yes.. hahaha" his innocent laugh was adorable, wanting to pinch his snub.
......................
The night is getting late, the air is getting colder. We continued back to the house of Indira which is not far about 100 meters from the entertainment area, through the lush trees of trees whose leaves fell on us. Although only the light of the road is not so bright, but I can see clearly the sweet face of indira, I really fell in love with her. Although finna is no less beautiful, no less beautiful, but only Indira can make me crazy about it.
”Cieeeeee, koq diliatin sih sha...".
"Huggled dong his wife". Finna teased the two of us who were mutually lyrics since earlier, but because of shame jd not too show a romp in front of finna.
"You're fin.." Indira accidentally nudged finna's body to the side and made her stagger slightly almost to fall.
It felt like seeing them joke like that, considering their feud in the last month that made the indira long recover from her heartache due to finna. Fortunately, everything quickly returned to normal, and long-standing friendship relationships became intact to support each other and share the grievances of life.
"You've found someone who can accompany you, I when you are." he said, his gaze a little bit I stared blankly at the road.
" Patience fin, I know God must be planning the best thing for you, just wait for the time". Trying to encourage him not to break the charcoal because he has not found the right mate at his age which is full of questions about when to get married to have a life companion.
"God knows, but waits" I said later, drawing a line from Leo Tolstoy from his book God Sees the Truth, But Waits.
"Well, you are wise." Finna spoke up and smiled at me.
"Thank you, I'm gonna try to change for the better and keep myself strong first". The deal closes our conversation.
I don't know what tomorrow will be like, but I try to stay calm and think more carefully because the journey will probably be heavier in the future, in terms of career I have not so much that can be relied upon as my income which will have to support Indira as my wife.
It looks like God is joking with me..^^^
Not long ago still struggling with all the important work, upon arrival here, I must get a very beautiful surprise that I do not fully deserve.
Another thing I thought about was how the family reacted to my marriage. A little gamang because of the last attitude of the father so hated my departure to Jakarta, whether he still wanted to acknowledge me as his son or not.
Even so, I still love my family and of course my beloved sisters who used to always spoil me as the oldest brother in the family.
