An old woman opened the door for Ara. The woman was surprised to see who was coming. Her stature was as well known but her face seemed to change.
"Mother!"
Ara immediately hugged the woman. Hugging a woman whose skin is already wrinkled, her bones are weakened, and her hair is gray. Ara hugged him tightly and wholeheartedly. Her tears could no longer hold. Rain by his side was moved by the sight that had occurred.
He loved his mother so much...
Somehow Rain's chest felt tight when he saw the scene in front of him. He saw how much the girl loved her mother. He felt sad himself. It was sad to not be able to do the same as Ara. He was also bent down to cover up the sadness in his heart.
"This, Ara?" The woman was confused, but a few seconds later her heart introduced who was hugging her.
"Mother, it's Ara."
Ara let go of her embrace. He held her arm gently and let her tears just flow. He kissed his mother's hand with all his heart.
"Oh my God, is this mother's son?"
As if not believing her child, the old woman then held Ara's face to make sure. Before long his heart justifies if the one in front of him is indeed his son. He hugged Ara and let the tears spill.
Ara loved her mother very much. He was well aware if it would not be able to grow up without the tender affection of his mother. And now there are many changes in him that make the mother had not recognized him.
"Mother, Ara's home." Ara was crying in her mother's arms.
"Yes, Son. Ja. This is our house." His mother said as she shed tears.
A sense of tightness struck the heart of the girl. He was so grateful to be able to meet his mother again. Not how long Ara also realized if from earlier Rain was just silent.
Ara took off her embrace. "Mother, introduce. This is Mr. Rain." Ara introduced while turning her head towards Rain who was standing by her side.
"Mr Rain?" Even the mother was confused
Rain nudged Ara's arm. "Rain it, Ara." Rain reminded.
"Gosh my god."
Instantly Ara realized that the habit could not be lost from him. The mother also watched the man who was with her son. The man then took off his glasses. The atmosphere of haru also turned into a sense of awkwardness instantly.
"Em, mom. Sorry, I mean this Ara Rain." Ara.
Even the mother understood. Rain immediately did what Ara did to her mother earlier, kissing her hands in honor.
"I'm Rain, Mom. I'm..." Rain looked at Ara. "I have good intentions with Mom's daughter." Rain explained.
Instantly Ara blushed, her face blushing red. The mother understood what Rain meant.
"Let's go in, son Rain. Come on, Ara." The mother let them both into the house.
Ara and Rain came in. Rain then sat on the rattan chair that was in the living room. Ara followed her mother into the kitchen to make her drink.
"Mom, let Ara make you drink." Ara prevents her mother from making her drink for Rain.
The mother also looked. "Ara, the man in front of it?" The mother asked her son more clearly.
"He's Mom's daughter-in-law."
Ara whispered to her mother. Mom was surprised and shut her mouth. He was very surprised.
"Oh my God, Ara. She's..."
"He's so handsome, isn't he, Mom? He's also kind. Ara dedicate it to Mom." Ara smiled as she hugged her mother from the side.
"Ah, I could." Ara was embarrassed to hear it herself.
"Yes, already. Make a drink, yeah. I'm going to the living room." The mother said to Ara.
"He-it." Ara nodded as well.
The mother then went to meet Rain who was sitting in the living room. Ara made a drink to accompany him to chat. Not forgetting he served the martabak he bought earlier. This morning Rain will express his good intentions to the girl's mother.
A few minutes later...
Ara came to bring three cups of warm tea to accompany her chat. He also saw the man sitting opposite his mother look groggy and downcast. Ara smiled to see it.
"Let's drink the tea."
Ara served tea to the table. At that time also the mother saw there is his favorite food, martabak bangka. Instantly his heart was filled to see what Ara had brought for him.
"Ara's been with Rain?" ask the mother.
Finished serving the tea, Ara sat between the two. "One month, Mom. Since leaving. I read Ara's letter, right?" ara asked her mother who was sitting on the left. Rain sat on his right.
"Hah .. at that time I was shocked because I did not see you out of the room all day. At last she knocked on the door and it was unlocked. And then I found your letter." The mother told.
"I'm sorry, Mom. Ara hurry. But pray for this one not." Ara held her mother's hand and turned towards Rain.
Instantly Rain cleared his throat.
"So you guys?" The mother felt the conversation was getting serious.
"Mother, Ara is getting married to Rain." Ara finally revealed it to her mother.
"Oh my God!" The mother was surprised not to play.
Rain also spoke. "Sorry Mom if this is sudden. But Rain is serious about Ara." Rain added.
The fifty-year-old woman's heart was filled as well as moved. It turns out that her son came home to bring a daughter-in-law for her. He did not expect if his son would soon release his girl's time.
"Son Rain, I only have Ara. If Nak Rain is serious to Ara, please take care of Ara. I'm waiting for Nak Rain's family to come here." The mother approved.
"Mom, does this mean?" Ara's eyes were also glazed.
"If Ara's soul mate has come, accept it. I bless it" said the mother.
Sontak Ara approached and hugged her mother tightly. She could not believe that her mother had married Rain.
"Thank you, Mom. Thank you." Thank you." Ara smiled happily.
"Yes, congratulations, son." The mother rubbed her son's head.
Finally without having to wait long, the blessing was obtained by Ara from her mother. Of course this makes Rain's heart happy. He almost shed tears because he was moved. His efforts yielded sweet results and just waited for the next step.
Praise be to the Lord of the universe. I finally got my blessing.
Rain was so happy, he smiled in his day.
I will soon be your husband. And soon I will tell you my love. Wait for me, Ara...
At exactly eight in the morning the blessing was obtained both. Ara immediately asked her mother to get ready to go with her. There was something Rain wanted to give as a sign of his seriousness. And finally, happiness has come. No one expected it to be so fast it stunned.
