The Toga Rahayu

Perjodhan

“In matchmaking”, Rahayu's eyes are perfectly rounded.

“Yes son, he is a good man, sholeh and also hardworking, he accepts with airy chest what happened to you some time ago”.

“Dad knows his family”.

“But yeah? Why should I be in a match?”.

“Already Yu, just accept what your father-in-law said so far he helped our family a lot. He is also unlikely to give a bad choice for you”. Said Rahayu on the sidelines of a conversation with them.

While mother and mother Rahayu hold both hands Rahayu on two sides right and left simultaneously. Gently look at the child's face.

“Marriage certificate will be done next week son, be prepared”.

“What?, this is why everyone so do as they please themselves without asking first whether I accept or not this matchmaking?, why they decided unilaterally, while the one who undergoes later is I”. Rahayu in her heart.

Rahayu did not give any answer, her face changed from being so happy that it had become gloomy and almost cried.

Rahayu did not taste to spend the food in front of her, she chose to end the meal and move into her room.

“I'm sorry if you'll excuse me, please continue eating”, the steps are so heavy felt.

In the room, Rahayu steady photos of her wedding with Reno. When I graduated, I kept my promise to go back to school. I became the best graduate in this master's program, his hands wiping away the tears that fell on his cheeks.

Are you happy to see me graduate?

Your parents betrothed me to a man of their choice, I wasn't ready for this. Can you help me tell them if I refuse this match?.

Hiks hyks.

Rahayu was crying again.

Mas Andika?.

What about Andika? After a long journey of love story both of us, if indeed the universe never bless our love story until slalu there are only obstacles and obstacles that come sili change in our relationship.

“Mas Reno can I continue my life with her, on the Andika mas figure you also know her?”.

“Mas or is this a sign that you are not willing for me to be with Andika mas, until father gives this matchmaking offer?”.

Hiks hyks...

Her crying was so heartbreaking, like a few years ago.

***

Andika's House.

This morning Andika there is a morning teaching schedule at nine, as usual all the families will gather together at the dinner table for breakfast. This morning mama cooked a special meal rice pecel and vegetables do not forget the complete package of rempeyek favorite food Andika since childhood.

All the families have gathered together and are preparing to eat food, the mother's hands outstretched to fill the two plates of men of different generations.

“Why do the campus business? are there obstacles during the teaching and learning process of students there?”.

“No pa, all goes well. The completeness of facilities and ease of accessing information make teaching and learning activities very easy”.

Papa mas Andika nodded his head.

“Thank God then”. papa mas Dika is indeed a person of concern about education problems so far, he is so following all the developments that occur in the world of education even though he did not plunge directly on campus.

“Dik, there is an important thing papa wants to tell you”.

The father paused his talk, waiting for Andika to finish repeating the food in her mouth.

After making sure the contents of his son's mouth were empty, the father continued his words.

“Iya pah”.

“Dika, it's been over a year since you promised to bring a woman to mama papa”.

Andika's face immediately met, imagining that she would soon introduce Rahayu to her parents.

“Eh but pa”. Andika cuts off the words of sanga papa.

“Papa does not accept rejection, she is a sholeh, authoritative girl has a good character and personality one more bonus for you she has a very beautiful face”.

“But the reward, just a week ago Andika proposed to people's children, and the plan next week will be brought here”.

“You are late to say, because papa has already received this matchmaking”.

“Papa please do not disappoint papa”. Said the papa so firmly.

Andika was silent, looking at the mother hoping for a defense.

Mama just shook her head.

“Mah”. he said with a clear and bowed lethargic.

“What's wrong with you obeying the orders of your papa son, not all this time papa never forced you in everything, beat for a moment”.

“But the one undergoing Dika”.

His face looked back at the father and mother in turn, filled with hope like a child who was asking his parents for candy.

“Have accepted the destiny that exists, we meet first to know each other, dive into each other's hearts, if indeed God predestines you to mate of course papa will be very happy once”. Papa passed by leaving the dining table.

“Next week we will meet, get ready”.

While Andika stepped out of the house to the campus to return to teach, along the way her heart raged, confused what to do. While his heart is already tied to one name Rahayu.

Many times the shadow of Rahayu's face was smiling dancing in her memory.

“My sweet cat, why so many obstacles and obstacles to be with you”. Andika said in her heart daydreaming somewhere.

TIN.....TIN...TIN...

The sound of the horn blurted out the daydream not when passing through the stop lights, while traffic signs have shown green as a sign of continued travel.

Heh.

Andika was throwing her breath out violently.

A few days later, Andika and Rahayu did not talk to each other, they did not dare to say if each of them in the matchmaking period with their parents' choice.

Rahayu prefers to be quiet, not giving news fear will give a hope that will certainly be gloomy, he said, likewise with Andika who repeatedly saw her phone but never dared to tell Rahayu.

Perhaps Andika was a cowardly man, but peerless confusion engulfed her in her heart. Between fighting for his love for the girl of his heart or preferring his love for both parents?.

Dilemmas.

These two people are in a dilemma, not infrequently in some time they cry together just in different places. They call each other in their hearts.

Begging for a good miracle sided with him.

Six days later.

Andika grabbed her phone ventured to know the news of the lover of heart. Repeatedly trying to make a voice call has no answer.

Callings...

“Assalamualaikum”, reply stammeringly.

“Waalaikumsalam”. so answer it by holding back tears.

“How's it going?”,

Silent.

There was only the sound of sobbing between these two people.

Hiks..hiks..
