There's No Saying Dear

Suddenly Proposal

That afternoon the light came faster than usual to his workplace. Light walked over the sidewalk, his eyes accidentally found a man he had never seen for a long time. He also took the initiative to approach the man who was sitting in a long chair under a large tree.

"Sanjooo!" Light greets Dusk. The one in the court raised his head.

"Cahyono!" the man said in surprise, as he looked at the woman who had not seen him for a long time.

'Cahyono' the call made the Light remember the distant past. People are very close to him, but that trait changes when new people come.

"Well, can't the cave sit?" tanya Light, which was answered with a smile and nod.

"When did you come to Jakarta?"

"A day ago."

"It's impossible for a Sanjooo to come to Jakarta for no reason, is the cave right?" The light knew the dark man.

"Your guess is right Cahyono!"

"Say, maybe a Cahyono can help Sanjooo!"

The man looked at the Light closely. Over the years, he had forgotten about the woman. Just because one person came that made her fall in love.

"He! He left long ago without news. He was so selfish, without giving any news. And why did he, never say it if it's not in love anymore." The man spoke with blank eyes.

Light knows very well who that 'he' is. Although never met.

"What cave can I answer?"

"Cahyono, let's just answer. Just like everyone else."

"Sanjo, as Muslims we should not be prejudiced. And why he never told me. That must have been all for a reason. So now ...when do you— have to find out the reason he never contacted you and said break up or something."

"But how the cave found out, he never told me who his family was and where his address was,"

"God never sleeps, He certainly helps His happy people try, Sanjooo!"

"Cahyono, you know, never change always positive thinking." The man ruffled the Light's hair.

"By the way have you found your heart?" Dusk stared at that face intensely.

"If the heart of the cave is split, is it possible that the cave is still sitting next to you?" ask the Light with a grinning smile.

Dusk laughed at the Light's reply.

"Don't be an innocent ass, Cahyono!" The light laughed, hearing the dark-skinned young man's reply.

"Why a man, Cahyono. Never confided about the person Cahyono liked to, Sanjooo?" ask

"Okay, it seems like Cahyono, does not believe in Sanjooo!" he said while laughing.

How could he confide in the person in front of him. If that person was the— that was in his heart back then. Aye! That time because now the love is gone, when the person in front of him loves others.

...***...

That night was about nine and a half. The light came home from work.

When he got to the front of the house, his forehead wrinkled why there were two cars in front of his house. Maybe that's what's on his mind. He rushed to go straight into the house.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" said it.

"Wha'alaikumussalam" It turns out that the guess of Light, if there is a guest in his father's house.

The light shakes hands with the guest.

"Just got home from work, Nduk?" ask Abidah Aminah. The guest is Raharja's extended family.

"Yes, Tan!" answer with a smile.

Already from the great family magrib Raharja met at Brian's house. But when I want to say goodbye home. The light came at the right time. They also sit back.

The twins sitting in one chair were elbowing each other. As if in disbelief when he saw the face of Light.

"Yes, you change your clothes" Brian told his son.

"Good, Dad!" The light followed Brian's words.

When he reached his room, Light quickly changed clothes. After she changed her clothes, she came out of her room. He accidentally hit someone.

The light was very surprised, because the young man was in his house.

"Sir Lecturer!"

"You!" The young man was no less surprised when he saw the Light. The new sky from the bathroom.

"Sir Lecturer, what's the matter here?"

But the young man did not answer leaving the Light.

The light snorted in annoyance, because the person being asked did not answer. The woman walked behind the sky. When they arrived at the guest room they both sat in the same chair. Because there are no more seats, so inevitably they have to share seats.

"Grad ..." Grandpa cleared his throat.

"This Nduk, here we come to ask you."

Grandpa spoke directly to the point. Because before Light came home, they had already conveyed their purpose of meeting Brian. And the family said, let the Light decide because it's the future. Neither did Nek Endah want to impose his will, he did not want to be selfish a second time.

"Do you have a boyfriend now?" ask grandpa. Light shakes.

Grandfather assumed after Earth died, did Light already establish a relationship with people.

"Me and my extended family, want to make you a son-in-law .." he said, in a short pause, before continuing. "As the wife of my grandson named Sky. We're not forcing you. Think about it, Nduk!"

The light was greatly astonished by that sudden proposal. He closed his eyes. Something he had heard began to spin in his brain 'Don't get married just because you're in love, but get married because you believe God's heaven is closer to him' Light is very confused.

He can live with people he never knew. But if in further study the word that rotates in his mind. Making the Light think. 'Please marry for worship. Because God loves those who worship'.

And perhaps it could bring the Light closer to His heaven.

All who are there wait for the answer from the Light. Especially Abidah Aminah who is afraid if the Light rejects him.

"Lama .." said Arche quietly to his sister, but able to be heard by everyone who was there.

The light took a deep breath, and opened his eyes then smiled towards Raharja's grandfather and nodded slowly. Everyone there was so happy. The relationship between Grandpa and Grandpa Endah who was originally only a close friend, might turn into the word 'Besan'.

"When is the wedding?" abidah asked Aminah loudly and enthusiastically.

"Daughter-in-law, don't ask that question immediately."

"Sorry, Sir!"

"Look at me, I'm like a little boy." Arche whispered to his sister.

"I can't wait to have a daughter-in-law" replied the sister. And the twins nodded compactly.

"When are you ready for the Light?" ask her husband Abidah Aminah.

"Light, graduate from college in a year, Kang, if I can ask permission. Let my son finish college" Brian's father answered.

"Is that really light?" ask her husband, Abidah Aminah. Which is answered with a nod.

"Do you agree, son? Is there a request or something you want to convey?" ask Brian to the Sky.

"Yes, Om! If I may, I want Om's son, no need to work, no good girls come home at night."

The answer of Heaven made everyone shocked what else Light. Because before the woman came home, her family said that Light works usually come home at tenth.

"Om, don't take it personally because of what I said, all this is for good." The sky spoke again. "Om, don't worry about all the needs of the child Om. I will fill it," said the Sky, making the person sitting next to him round his eyes perfectly.

The conversation is over, the Raharja family is home. Before returning home Sky and Light had time to exchange mobile numbers.
