There's No Saying Dear

There's No Saying Dear
The Hair of Sebahu



One year after Raharja's cake, asked Cahaya to be her daughter-in-law's grandson. The woman graduated from college a month ago.


The marriage of Heaven and Light counts weeks.


The light that was playing mobile phone at home he was shocked by incoming messages from his phone.


Get ready I'll be at your house at half-time. We talked about the wedding.


That's the incoming message that Light had read. The clock seemed to be traveling so fast, the young man who had sent the message earlier in the morning was already in front of the house.


"Where are we talking, Bang?" tanya Light.


"Later to know, too," he said, closing the door. The light could only sigh, how could he live together with that talkative Sky. It seemed like Light should be more able to behave, understanding the young man.


The car started leaving the Light house. The car seemed to turn back, yes the car, towards the road towards Raharja's house.


Sometimes the Light glanced at the young man who was focusing on driving.


They have arrived at the school of the twins. Because just before picking up Cahaya, Abidah Aminah asked Sky to pick up the twins .


The sky started to come out of the car and was followed by Light.


"The twins are now going to third grade, Bang?" ask the Light just for a little talk. The young man just nodded. The twins walked towards them.


"Come in" he said, making the twins go straight in without having to be told a second time.


Without being told, the light went straight into the car. The young man also got in the car and immediately continued the journey that he was going to.


"How are you guys?" ask the light, to the twins. They haven't seen you in a long time. Because the Light at that time was focused on his lecture.


"Okay" answered Archer.


Very brief conversation between the future brother and sister-in-law. The car stopped at the cafe. The sky told them to come down. They walked towards the cafe, and entered the cafe which was arguably very large at that time.


"You two, find a seat. Please order what you like. Kang Mas and Light Tea will be sitting there, to discuss about the wedding. After we're done, we'll join you guys" he said.


The light just followed the young man from behind. Now they sit across.


"Do you have any requirements for the dowry?" ask Sky.


"What my brother accepted, but .." he said was not resolved, afraid that his request was too excessive.


"Say, if I could give it to him I would give it to him" said the young man, who knew if the woman in front of him wanted anything.


"Eum..." The light hesitated to say it. The young man cleared his throat, a sign if he wanted to get a quick answer.


The light that knew that he immediately spoke. "Al-Rahman."


"Say the obvious!" he said the young man, did not like long-winded.


"I want you to read the Surah of Ar-Rahman, when you are legal, to be my husband. Don't get me wrong, Bang. This is not the dowry I asked for, but I just want you to read me that surah. It may be night, or day after we get married" she said.


"For how many invitations does it take for your family? Later let all print invitation cards in the same place," he said.


"I just invited a few college friends over."


"Obviously, let's count it easy. All with close relatives," he said, This sky really all has to be detailed.


"Three hundreds" he said.


"The wedding ceremony is held a week before Ramadan. I want you to wear a hijab during the event and reception," said Sky, who conveyed his wishes directly to the point.


"Alright," said Light, agreeing with her future husband's wishes. Unlike the Light which easily asserted, the young man did not say yes or no. When the woman in front of him asked to be read aloud Ar-Rahman's letter after the wedding.


"Maybe tomorrow we will print the invitation" Sky said, telling the woman in front of him. The second conversation was over, they walked towards the twins who were eating. They sat down to join the twins.


"Eat" said the Sky to the Light.


"Did soto betawinya?" ask Archer, to the Light. It seemed that the eighteen-year-old virgin, had already begun to become familiar with the Light.


"Yes dong" she replied Archer.


"You guys have prayed?" ask the heavens, which answered the head.


"Sholat first, it's time. Beside this cafe there seems to be a mushola," said Sky, asking the twins to pray.


"Who are you?" ask Arche.


"Kang Mas had prayed earlier at home, did not know that the Light Tea!"


"You pray, I'm coming to the moon" said Light.


They left both couples. The sky and the Light were eating the betawi soto. There is no talk from the two, because they are more focused on eating first. It had been almost ten minutes that they had finally finished eating. The twins have also returned from the mosque.


"Today we go straight home to Kang Mas?" asked Arche, who was sitting in front of his kang mas.


"We're going to one of the places, finish the meal," he told the twins, who didn't seem to be full.


They had finished eating, and they were already in the car. The young man began to continue on the journey they were going to next.


Almost fifteen minutes into the ride, the silver-colored car entered the gate, it looked like it was a hair salon. They got out of the car. Then enter the salon that is not too crowded.


"Why go to Bang's salon?" tanya Light.


"I want your hair shortened, if it's as long as it's still a college kid." The sky put both of his hands in his pants pocket.


The twins gave each other codes. What is with that lang mas.


"Why didn't you say it first?" ask the light in a soft voice.


Rarely does the woman speak in a soft voice, if not with someone older than her.


Sky says. "If we don't want to get out."


"Not so Bang, all of that should be talked about before making a decision, if this concerns both parties."


They were silent for a moment, before the Light spoke up. "Well, if that's what you want, I'll do it." The light left the sky that was still standing inside the door of the salon.


"Cut what model Mommy?" tanyakanya.


"Ordinary cut of a boat, Ma'am!"


The salon ma'am began to cut little by little Light's hair. Light hair initially up back. But after almost half an hour. The salon cut eventually. The Light hairstyle had already turned into a shoulder. True said Sky if Light hair shortened would be better, the woman looked more mature with her new hairstyle.


"Good too" said Light, smiling as he looked at the reflection of his face.


The light that was finished with the haircut, he decided to meet the young man who had told him to cut his hair.


"What's this like, Bang?" tanya Light.


The sky that was focused on the mobile phone screen, the young man began to look up at his head to see the woman who was, he told him to cut his hair. His eyes did not blink, as he looked at the woman standing in front of him. The twins who saw the kang mas like that, they coughed loudly. So that the kang masnya was aware of what is being done now.


"Yes, well I will pay first" said the young man, who stood up from his seat.


"Beautiful too, brother, if his hair is short." Archer exclaimed softly, who was asked only nodded slowly.


They got out of the salon and got into the car. The car started to run at a moderate speed.


"Where are we going after this, Kang Mas?" ask Arche.


"We send, Light Tea home," said Sky.


While being focused on driving occasionally Sky glanced towards the Light that looked out the window. They arrived in front of the Light House. The light came out of the car.


"Be careful not to speed, it's been a lot of late afternoon vehicles, too" said Light.


That afternoon ended with the Light waving her hand towards her future husband.
