The Smile of God for Marissa
Proposal
At half-time mom to home. Mother brought a lot of fresh fruits and not to mention. His car was filled with groceries. Marni helped put everything in the house. I kissed my mother and hugged her. My kangen taste is spilling today.
“MEwhy not tell me that today came home ?”
“Because nothing special, Mom. Risa does not want to disturb the concentration of mother and father.” My solute. Mom ruffled my hair.
“When did the Aditya family come ? Is it a week ?”Mother is still busy arranging and sorting all the items that have been waiting in the middle room since.
“God willing, Mom. Risa sorry yes Mom, because it has made mom disappointed.”
Mom stopped her activity and looked at me.
“What do you mean ?”
“Risa has not yet graduated, beu can repay all the kindness of mother and father, can not give anything but . . . Risa is getting married.” I'm down. The tears that I had been holding perfectly. Mom hugged me.
“There is nothing more to make mothers and fathers happy than to watch the children of mothers obey and submit to the rule of God, dear. You've proven it. Mothers are better spelled out parents are colossal for letting the children of mothers marry early than say modern people but let their children date.”
“Thank you, Mom. May God always lead us to always be istiqomah in His way.”
“Aamiin”
Finally this afternoon I spent chatting with my mother until my father came home.

Sunday morning, my father and mother called some relatives and a village device who would watch the proposal at my house. At Nine o'clock the Aditya family came. Aditya wears a uniform batik shirt with Mr. Mustafa and Ms. Meisya. Mom and I are out. I experienced my mother-in-law and two mothers who accompanied the presence of the Aditya family.
“Farida ?” a mother called my mother's name.
“Niken ?” My mother was surprised to find her friend coming with Aditya's entourage. They hugged each other. Kiss the right and left cheeks. Aditya and I looked at each other. Then smile.
“So Marissa your son ?” Mother nodded. “Aditya my nephew, Da. Thank God we finally got the message. Meisya Aditya's mother is my sister. “
“Oh yes, Alhamdulillah, “ Mother then let go of her best friend's embrace and greet Aditya's mother and kiss each other on the left right cheek. Then go on to the third mother.
“I'm Brother of Mr. Aditya. My name is Indrawati,” My mother did the same thing to Bu Indrawati, then sat next to Bu Niken. It seems they are continuing. Pak Mustafa's family envoy finally conveyed the purpose and purpose of their presence in my house.
“ Sorry Mr. Wardhana, I represent my brother Mustafa, want to convey the purpose and purpose of our arrival to Mr. Wardhana's house. We intend to preach, Princess Antum, Marissa Wardhani to be the wife of My Nephew Irawan Adityawarman.’
I took a breath and started talking.
“ Alhamdulillah, praise the blessings, guidance and faith of Allah Almighty, whom He has bestowed upon us all so that on this day, on Sunday we may gather, have mercy in our homes, and be in peace, in Sumberharjo Prambanan Sleman with no obstruction of anything. Salawat and greetings we always deliver to our lord the Great Prophet Muhammad Saw, may we someday get his intercession in the day of vengeance. “
“Aamiin” all ladies and gentlemen guarantee father's sentence.
:Thank you to the extended family of Mr. Haji Mustafa, who came to preach my daughter Marissa Wardhani. As a parent, I have no right to accept and refuse. Next decision I leave to Marissa my son.”
Everyone is looking at me. I bowed for a moment. I started talking after Mom gave me the code. I looked at my father and father nodded.
“Bismil was bornrahmaanirrahiim, by wishing God's ridha, Kak Aditya's proposal I received”
“Alhamdulilbornobbil ‘alamiin” all attendees express gratitude for my answer. Ms. Meisya gives the ring to Aditya. And Aditya came to me wearing a ring on my ring finger. She herself also put her ring on my right ring finger.”
“Adik wears all yes, islam forbids men to wear gold. God willing Brother will take care of Brother's heart only for my wife Marissa.” I just looked down and nodded. Everyone in the audience was relieved.
“After the application is accepted, our family proposes that the marriage be hastened. We request that the wedding be held two weeks ahead.”
***
After the application procession is completed, all families enjoy the dishes that have been provided in the dining room. I am always accompanied by my prospective In-laws to take a position next to Meisya's mother and Miss Niken, my mother's friend.
“ I heard, Marissa got the first champion of the National level in the scientific writing competition, is it true, Son ?” I just nodded. Swallowed my food and answered Miss Niken's question.
“Alhamdulillah, Bu.” Given the champion of the race, I remember that my departure to the Netherlands will be held two more pecans and that means the same as my wedding day. I was speechless thinking about how I gave an excuse to the education ministry.
“What's the dear ?” Ms. Mesiya looked at me suspiciously.
“Bu. “ I stopped my sentence and I saw the reaction of my future mother-in-law.
“What's up?”
“Marisa just remembered. Two days ago Marisa got word that Marissa's departure to the Netherlands was two more pecans, along with the wedding day.”
“What does it mean?” my mother, who had been silent since, started talking. “Kau don't embarrass the family, Marisa.”
“Mother, Marisa will resign from the student exchange, even though tickets to Belanda were already Marisa cantongi two days ago. Insha Allah Risa sincerely.
“Mother doesn't understand”
“The prize race that Risa won in Jakarta in addition to the prize money and the award charter is also a six-month visit to the university in the Netherlands Bu. Departure is two weeks away. Same with Marissa's wedding day. But Marisa will resign.”
Aditya and the others looked at me pityfully.
“Are you sure ?” Aditya. I'm nodding.
“Thank you for the sacrifice that Brother has taken for our marriage. Hopefully after marriage we can go to the Netherlands for travel.”
“Aamiin, God willing.”
“God willing I will not make my wife suffer because she has sacrificed for marriage. May God always guide us in running the household life.”
“Aamiin”
The meal was over and before long the adhan duhur was heard. Everyone goes to the mosque. I'm absent today because my monthly guest came this morning.”
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Aditya and his family left my house. We drove them until they got away, then went home and continued our activities.
“Why didn't you tell me there was a State assignment to the Netherlands ? You will be able to postpone the wedding after coming home from there.” My mother started to open her voice.
“ Risa forgot, Mom. And again Risa does not want to make Kak Aditya too long to wait, Mom because the activity is carried out for six months.”
“God's Mass. Why that long ?”
“That's the policy Ma'am. Hence Risa does not want to take too much risk.”
“That's the right decision, son. God willing, you'll get a better replacement. I see Aditya is the right man to accompany you. If you stay too long, I'm sure he'll suffer.”
“Iya Father. Marisa understands. Thank you for supporting Risa.”'s decision
Tonight we went back to our rooms. Before going to bed, I took the time to send a message to my two brothers to be present at my upcoming wedding. After that, I turned off my phone and put it on my dresser. I turned off the lights and turned on the sleeping lights at the little table near my couch. With bismillah, I started my sleep mini mala.
