Almost magrib when they get to the center of Sibolga City, Asrul chose to go to the Great Mosque and stopped there to participate in congregational magrib prayers, Haris and Risda of course strongly agree, let alone Risda, Risda, seeing what a good venue, his photo appetite immediately tempered.
The activity went straight to it, again Natalia who became a photographer for her daughter and daughter-in-law, because Farhan and Faridha chose their own agenda, just choosing a selfie and going around the mosque, pay attention to anything that can attract attention until both are far from the other.
Fortunately restless Asrul not long, because Adzan had been reverberating, without command all entered the mosque, Natalia still chose to stay, but this time not in the car, but not in the car, Natalia tried to enjoy the traditional Sibolga cake from the seller who opened a stall around the mosque parking lot.
The decision is now back to Jamil's house, initially wanted to go to Fadli's house, but this new grandfather has not left Usman's house, all of course can accept that reality, he said, his name is also grandfather and grandmother who just two days get a new title, certainly not ready far from the grandson.
"So how did Far decide ?".
Farhan scratched his head. "Where is Uncle. Farhan wanted to meet Big Bones and Small Bones, but that means Farhan had to foil the ticket, Faridha indeed had to return Uncle, tomorrow there was a new student introduction activity, Faridha was even the chairman of the committee".
"What is it about Faridha going home alone ?".
Farhan sighed. "Yes, but not good uncle dong, Farhan brought from his house, should Farhan turn to his house also dong ya. Farhan time bring it, home by himself. It's not so funny that his name is mah".
Haris laughed and nodded his head. "Yes too".
"Here you go, Uncle, Farhan turned back to Faridha through Pinangsori only".
Haris nodded his head, Asrul did not comment, as he agreed with what Farhan said. The one who brought Faridha from his house was Farhan, so Farhan had to drive Faridha home, it had to be. Asrul no problem Farhan did not come to Padangsidimpuan, if he wants, there is still a lot of time lag before going to college, Farhan can come there, why not.
The morning was so fast approaching, after breakfast, everything was now through the breakup stage, Jamil, Lena and Mila were already unable to hold back, Lena and Mila were even half roaring, Risda, Faridha and Natalia certainly became part of the follow-up, Asrul, Farhan and Haris also did not have the strength to fight, the tears of the three were very heavy, pouring like a mini waterfall soaking each other's clothes.
"The promise, Haris will come every year Bi, Insha Allah, as long as Haris is healthy, Haris will visit here, Haris will also bring Natalia".
Mila increasingly tightened her embrace, had repeatedly Haris kissed her aunt's sweet potato, but it did not feel satisfied, the same as Lena who almost drooped in the arms of Natalia. After decades of separation, meeting only a few days, and now leaving again without knowing when else, certainly makes the three old men so devastated.
But to say what, the children, grandchildren and grandchildren of his son-in-law have a busy life that is impossible to stay for long, the separation must be done, nothing will be able to stop him again, no one can stop him, so that the sadness and grief were multiplied, the three also felt unable to leave Sibolga, everything was still here, so separation was the only choice.
Mila and Lena still stand holding the fence of the house, still continue to stare far into the highway even though the car carrying Haris and her son and daughter-in-law is not visible at all, the eyes of both are still sullen, their lips were still shaking violently, yet to accept the departure of his nephew and grandson.
Inner Mila and Lena hope the car comes again, so they still have a chance to hug their nephew and granddaughter back, but nothing, it's been more than 30 minutes, not to return, both relented, stepping in, sitting without the slightest sound, there was still the rest of the rest as eager as they fell asleep in the shabby chair in the living room.
Haris and his entourage had arrived at Usman's house, but could not be long here, Farhan and Faridha's flight was not long, an hour and a half after this both must have been at the airport dr. F.L. Tobing Pinangsori, while the travel time there can reach one hour as well.
“Open Luggage Bang”.
Asrul glanced at Lukman. “Accessment Man ?”.
“Open”.
Asrul laughed and handed the key to Lukman, Farhan who came forward to help, it turns out that Fadli had prepared many packages of salted fish neatly wrapped, Haris also so joined the smile, because he also likes salted fish from Sibolga, the number of nhya that is quite a lot allows each to carry more than one.
Time to go. Risna had been eager to hug and kiss Farhan's cheek repeatedly, if in Jamil's house Farhan could still smile, this time Farhan KO, he also cried and hugged his strong, Nantulangnya, it was, likewise with Fadli, Nadia as well, Usman and Lukman still smile even though their eyes have changed.
Risda, Natalia, Faridha and Haris also get the same treatment, all dissolve in sadness, the shadow remains the same, when can meet directly no one knows the answer, no one knows the answer, the distance that is far away certainly makes everything not too easy to meet.
Farhan was quite thought to see Deasy's very different attitude towards him, Deasy easily hugged and kissed Asrul and Risda, even Natalia and Haris were the same, but to him Deasy only greeted with a faint smile, Faridha also only got a thin hug, far from the warm words as Risda, Asrul and Natalia get.
What's wrong with Deasy?, why is it cold?, that's Farhan's question now, even though he just shook his head and hugged Feby again. Farhan nods his head when Feby asks him to come often, of all, only Feby still has a lot of smiles, even looks cheerful, Feby is not the least bit affected by the sad aroma that people are born around him.
The journey began, this time Farhan who runs a vehicle, the car runs so relaxed, Faridha so remembered what was once said Risda that Farhan a relaxed person, but Faridha likes it, he said, Faridha was less interested in riding a vehicle at a high speed.
There was not much talk time, when they got to the airport dr. F.L. Tobing Pinangsori, Farhan and Faridha had to go straight for a chek-in, just a shaman and a slight hug between Risda and Faridha, both of whom went straight to the airport, while the others could only wait outside.
All agreed to wait for the plane to leave the airport, all of them sitting in the airport cafe ordering bottled drinks, even though there was also coffee or tea, but there seems to be no appetite to order it, for sure it won't take long to sit here.
“Abang see no expression Deasy to Farhan and Faridha ?”.
Asrul nods his head. “See Deck, wonder too indeed, like something is blocking Deasy, but do not know also why”.
Risda shakes. “What Deasy like to Farhan Bang ?”.
Asrul somewhat cheered, What ?. But then Asrul sighed and shook his head, so to think also now, Asrul again sighed, but the mixture had been nodding his head, from the beginning they arrived, Deasy's expression was different to Farhan and to others, Asrul finally caught something.
“Entah Dek, but it feels funny, the childhood of Junior High already had such thoughts, brother just strange, the childhood of Junior High mendam feeling that, can ya ?”. Asrul was astonished.
Risda laughed a little. “Kalo data appeal Ariana, yes, is funny anyway. But, adek see, Deasy's way of thinking is much more mature than Ariana, even though they are the same age, even Ariana style is more suitable to Feby”.
Asrul laughs, but indeed he finds there is a peculiarity in Deasy's attitude, if it turns out that it is true what Asrul alleged, pity Deasy, age he is indeed compatible with Farhan, and, no need for a beautiful story that is far from Faridha, but Deasy deserves a chance.
Risda directly punched Asrul's shoulder. “Origin abang”.
Asrul shook his head, there was no intention to answer again, now even imagining Deasy's face with all her cold expressions to Farhan, although in fact Asrul did not think, the time may have been so full of his head Junior High School child, but if not for that, let alone?, what is the reason that makes Deasy so except for the existence of Faridha, Asrul became dizzy himself.
When he saw the plane carrying Farhan and Faridha was already in the air, Haris and the others also moved, steering back under Asrul's control, Pinang Sori's distance to Padang Sidimpuan only took 60 minutes less, so that when Asrul started running the car, he had directly contacted Sabar, Little Bone who he said had been at home since morning.
The decision was taken, they went to the Patience house first, because Rohim the Big Bone had just arrived home before afternoon, Asrul just ran a slow car, because there was nothing to hunt, indeed, moreover, the talk about Deasy is still not complete, even looks more elongated.
“There was actually a mistake as well, should Meeta direct Farhan to Deasy, it is commonplace, because it is only Farhan who has the greatest chance, appropriate and possible to marry his parivan”. Haris.
“What is as important as that Bang take pariban ?”. Natalia is the nanya.
Haris laughed a little. “It is not about important not important, it is more about strengthening family relationships, by marrying a pariban, then technically we return the story of our father and mother, and we will return the story of our father and mother, and it will extend the family life up to some offspring”.
Risda slightly frowned. “Lengthening family life, means Well ?”.
“There is a chance, if each is entirely married to someone else, then in the future grandchildren, when grandfather and father father now no longer exist, the relationship is so bland, so bland, there's only language, oh, it's the family of my grandfather, my grandfather with his grandfather, it feels so far away, so”.
“If marriage with pariban itself fortunately what is Yah“. Masih Risda's.
“If married with a pariban, then everything is still the same, no new family can overwrite the relationship with the old family, his grandfather is still that too, uncle and others are still that too. No sentence, it's paternal grandfather, it's maternal grandfather, because the paternal grandfather and his mother, yes, that too, so keep focus”.
Risda nods his head, starting to understand the importance of marrying his own pariban, it turns out Asrul also caught the same thing, if regretful it may or deserved to do, it turns out, Asrul will already confess his regret for what his mother did to Farhan about Faridha.
But, Asrul felt it was already the line that Farhan would live. Everything is no longer possible to be pushed back, it seems that there is no one to blame in this case, because Asrul also believes that all consider Deasy as a child, he said, and it never occurred to anyone if Deasy thought so.
Asrul so slightly sighed, in fact, Deasy was not as small as he thought, even openly showing a cold attitude to Farhan, seen forcing a smile on Faridha, Asrul sure, sure, not only did he manage to catch it, proved Risda also saw it clearly, do not father and mother Deasy also catch it, what if the two are disappointed ?.
“Is it possible that the same bones also have thoughts so Well ?”.
Haris shrug his shoulders. “Entah Rul, but the chances are there, just how big and how they respond, that's what we don't know”.
Asrul. “Kok Asrul so think that yes Yah ?”.
Haris sighed. “That's normal, Rul, naturally, we certainly don't want any of our families to be disappointed with the steps we take. But your mom probably didn't think about it, nor did we know it was Rul”.
“What needs to be conveyed to Mama as well Well ?”.
Haris shakes. “If according to father anyway, do not also need to Rul”.
“Why Well ?”.
“Entahlah Rul's. But according to Dad, it's best that Meeta doesn't need to know Deasy's cold attitude to Farhan and to Farida. First, that's our guess, not necessarily Deasy's real mind. Then, Asrul must also understand, Bone Sibolga is your mother's younger brother Rul, younger brother. How do you feel to Mutia, Reni or Ariana”.
“Asrul won't let them grieve”. Asrul has already captured Haris' goal.
“Well, there it is. Is according to Asrul is not better to just silence it, consider it just a presumption, just a conjecture, and of course, the allegations are not important we convey to Meeta, it can damage his mood”.
“Iya heck Well. Mama must be sad, danger it”.
Haris laughed a little. “Makanya Rul, stop. Hopefully if it is not the result of Deasy's disappointment in Farhan, easily not that, this is just our guess, Deasy's mind is not so, hopefully”.
Asrul again sighed and shook his head. In fact, it was not Deasy that Asrul knew, as far as Asrul knew, Deasy was a jovial child, three years old with Feby or Ariana, but now Asrul caught a different kind of situation, Deasy is no longer the same Deasy he knew before, this Deasy is different, very different.
“But, there are also marriages with paribans that make the relationship crack”.
Asrul glanced at Haris for a moment. “Cracked ?, means Well ?”.
“If the pariban is more than one and does not come from one family. For example, your Big Bone has a daughter, Sibolga Bone also exists, Bone Medan is also the same. Apparently, three-thirds want Farhan to be their ghost, for example, Farhan chose his daughter Bones Sibolga, then Bones Besar and Bones Medan disappointed and unfriendly again, can be so”.
Asrul so laughed. “Ribet it mah, dizzy nutmeg if it's Yah”.
Haris laughed a little. “It is also what makes many people think of taking paribans, unless it is indeed the matchmaking by the agreement of all of them”.
Asrul shook his head, peeking from the glass above his head, just from earlier who chatted only the two of them, it turns out that Risda and Natalia have been lulled by each other's dreams, Asrul again shook his head, asrul again shook his head, it felt like Risda had just kept asking, now she was so sound asleep.
Sometimes sometimes Asrul is also confused to see his wife who is easily changed, from anger can immediately laugh, from a sweet smile can arrive wryly, this is also one of them, not long said, not long ago, now he's sleeping. In the thought of still listening to the story, it turned out to have been a dream somewhere.
