POV BAGGAGE

I entered the living room measuring 4 x 4 meters with a feeling of uneasiness thinking about what her mother Dinda would talk about. My eyes swept across the corner of the room neat and clean.

The monochrome color sofa is located slickly on the right side of the wall of the room lined with two small benches. One pot of green plants is in the corner and 1 large family photo is attached to the wall of white color. And one verse calligraphy chair is attached to the wall on the left.

This small house is minimalist but impressed beautiful and hommy once. I just feel at home sitting here for a long time and imagining if I am married to Dinda I also want to wake up a small, comfortable palace. Because home is the most comfortable place to go home after we do all day activities outside.

" Hmmm.dreaming what the hell is so serious," said Dinda appeared carrying a glass of my favorite sweet iced tea.

I smiled pulling his hand and his tiny body automatically fell to my arms.

"Mas, you'll see your mother and father!" his hand pushed against my body. I chuckled and immediately fixed my seat.

Moments later a woman in her fifties appeared to pop her head behind the connecting beads of the room.

"Please drink Nak Bagas" said Dinda's mother who looks graceful using a blue hijab in matching colors.

He sat down right next to Dinda. I knew that my girl's beauty line was down from her mother's.

" Thank you Aunt" I replied.

"Sir Bagas, Auntie can ask you something important ?" ask her

"Please Aunt" I replied again.

' Ohya sorry Dinda's father is not healthy so Aunt who represents Om huh?"

Aunt Liana took a deep breath. Then he looked at us both. I was a little nervous looking at his face.

" Where will Bagas' relationship with Dinda be brought? Aunty saw you've been walking together to explore each other"

Aunt Liana continued her words.

" Aunty think you are not teenagers who just know love, but you are adults and can determine the next step."

I squeezed my hands that were suddenly sweating, I did love Dinda but I wasn't ready to be asked a sudden question like this either.

"Emmmmm...My aunt is serious with Dinda, I love and love Dinda. "my answer stammered.

My dinda lyrics with the corner of my eye she looks down her head.

" I'm seriously Aunt with Dinda, but I asked for time to finish my S2 college Aunty first."

Aunt Liana and Dinda seemed to be exhaling simultaneously. Oh my God, is my answer wrong? I was wrong to see these two women in front of me.

"So the point is Nak Bagas is not ready to be more serious with Dinda, is that his core?"

'" Mother.." interrupted Dinda.

" I'm sorry my Aunt is not unprepared, but I asked for a moment first, so that I can make Dinda happy completely. I asked for 2 years to apply for Dinda." I said asking for permission.

I looked at Dinda's face that looked cloudy, her eyes almost spilling clear water on her eyelids.

" It's good, Auntie understands. But at least Nak Bagas talked about this with Nak Bagas' parents."

" Good aunt, insya Alloh after graduation I will introduce my parents here."

After a brief stale, Aunt Liana came into the room to accompany Dinda's father who was not feeling well.

Dinda moved to sit next to me, my hands clutching her cold palms.

"Darling, I'm sorry that you haven't been able to get your hand!" door slowly.

" It's gapapa Mas, I know you are still concentrating on preparing for graduation. But...."

Dinda stopped her conversation hesitantly ,

" Why, baby ?!" ask me curious

" Ah is not important.Mas better go home soon because I said there is a need with Mama right?"

With curiosity that still stuck in my mind I finally decided to go home.
