The Virgin Widow of the Solehah

Chapters 2. For the sake of Reply

When the family was still discussing what path to take, suddenly Aunt Hanum came knocking on the door even though the door was open.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

The three of them glanced at the doorway, seeing Aunt Hanum with a hijab girl that Reza had seen in the garden next to her house.

“Sorry, Mr. Suryo. This is my son Adinda who I told you yesterday will come to work here while in college,” explained Bi Hanum as her smile expands sincerely.

I don't know what was in Mr. Suryo's mind to show the corner of his lips raised upwards and turned to look at his wife. He felt his world was instantly saved with the arrival of a girl named Adinda — son from the waiter at his house.

“Come Adinda, salim used to be father and mother! How come your child is silent anyway?” reprimand Aunt Hanum reminded the princess who seemed embarrassed and also afraid because in the house there was a little problem but as a servant she felt no need to interfere.

The hijab girl immediately scratched the back of her hijab, feeling clumsy and also misbehaving herself because she had been warned by her mother. “Iya, Mother.”

Adinda quickly reached out to the woman who had given birth to Reza Madani. The girl kissed the back of the host's hand with reverence, not forgetting her lips also revealed a sincere smile, making Suryo's mother's heart feel cool for a moment.

“This adinda ... do you have a girlfriend in the village, Bi Hanum?” ask Suryo very carefully.

The middle-aged woman just wanted to make sure if the idea that instantly arose in her head would not make others into distress after everything could be realized.

Immediately the look on the face of aunt Hanum seemed confused by the question given by the employer.

'What's Suryo's mother saying, huh? Why did she suddenly ask about Adinda already had a boyfriend or not?' The waiter tried to keep painting a smile on his lips even though in his heart a series of unanswered questions arose.

The 45-year-old waitress looked at her youngest daughter who had just finished high school in the village. Bibi Hanum already has an agreement with the employer, if Adinda will be attended by Pak Suryo in Jakarta. Suryo feels the potential of Adinda is very dear if only being in the village with her brother, while the girl has a very good performance.

The maid and the employer finally made a letter of agreement that Suryo was willing to finance Adinda's college until it was finished on the condition that the girl must serve the Suryo family forever, precisely in his company.

"She never had any intention of going out, ma'am, I'm afraid of sin." The answer is so wise and rarely heard by a mother Suryo ears.

"That's great, you are indeed a girl who is very good at taking care of yourself, do not imitate young people today because they have uncontrolled promiscuity again," suryo's mother continued, her hand pulling Adinda's body and sitting the girl right next to Reza.

The middle-aged woman showed a very sad face, "Auntie Hanum .. Bibi already knew that Kaira had run away from marriage and left a big problem for my family. May I ask Adinda to be the future bride of his wife Reza who betrayed him?" Suryo's mother asked in the hope that her servant could be the solution to be detached from all the problems that her family is facing now.

Adinda seemed to shake weakly, refusing the host's request. His face appealed for mercy to the woman who had given birth to him in order to refuse the employer's request.

"I'm sorry, Mother .. but Adinda's still too young to get married. He was only 18 years old, it was still three months away and my son just finished High School. How could she possibly marry Den Reza?"

The waiter tried to find a very reasonable reason but he was not able to refuse aloud because he felt he had a burden of return that had so much received.

Mr. Suryo finally stood in front of aunt Hanum. The old man suddenly dropped down and knelt before his servant who had always been at his command.

"I plead with Auntie .. please save our family's good name. I promise I will do anything, as long as Adinda is willing to marry Reza. Aunty can ask for anything, as long as our family's good name is saved and the company won't get shaken by such embarrassing news" Mr. Suryo pleaded.

The lord of Suryo even shamelessly pleaded before his servant in order to save the good name of the family. Suryo's mother released her hand that had been linked to the fingers of the girl named Adinda, she stepped up to the husband and followed what Mr. Suryo did.

Aunt Hanum shook her head vigorously, then fell down in front of a married couple whom she already considered to be like her own family.

The servant ventured to grab the hand of his master, "actually I can not afford to let my daughter who is still a dozen years old to get married early but because Mother and father had also helped fund Adinda's school so I mikhlaskan her to be the wife of Den Reza," broke it without looking at the princess.

'Yes Allah .. forgive this servant's decision which was taken out of emotion and could not bear to see this family destroyed in humiliation, I ask You .. Please take care of my servant's daughter and protect her from all dangers.' Hanum sat down with tears felt falling inward.

The two servants' eyes were closed in harmony with the clear details dripping on both cheeks, feeling the pain of having to be willing to see his baby in wife by a man without any love.

"Mothers ... Adinda don't want kal—"

The girl could no longer continue the sentence she wanted to say because she heard the decision of the woman who had given birth to her. His sight blurred and blackened, until a few seconds later he did not know what was going on.

Bruk!
