Throughout the journey we kept quiet. I don't care if Rohman is mad at me. Because I feel so innocent.


Not long after, Rohman's car finally arrived in front of the boarding house. I removed my seatbelt and opened the door and went out. But Rohman held me back, and looked at me sharply.


I don't know why my guts suddenly shrunk when I saw Rohman's gaze. I was a little scared, because from the look on his face he looked angry.


"I need to talk to you."


I tried to calmly answer her words. I don't want to be provoked by emotions until there is a commotion.


"What are you talking about?"


"Can we just talk inside?"


"Yes, let's go in."


I walked towards the boarding room and was followed by Rohman. We entered and sat side by side. I'm actually a little tense, but trying to stay calm.


"What do you want to say, mom?"


"You know we're getting married soon?"


I exhaled violently. I was silent for a moment, lowered my head and tried to calm down so as not to get carried away by emotions.


"Yes, I know that."


"Then, why are you related to the Rendy family?" Rohman's tone was a little harsh. I can see if he's angry. Seen from the look on his face and the look in his eyes.


"Mas, I only met her mother. I didn't see Rendy."


"I heard her mother told you to go see Rendy. I heard everything."


"Why do you have to be angry, Mom? Okay her mother told me to go see Rendy but did I agree to Rita's letter?"


"Perhaps if I don't come you'll definitely obey."


"I'm lazy to argue. I don't want to get emotional. I'm pregnant."


Rohman rubbed his hair violently. He was silent and down. I also turned my face. I don't want this to get any longer.


"Sorry baby, maybe I'm too jealous. Again forgive me."


"That's it, it doesn't need to be extended anymore."


Rohman stroked my hair and kissed my forehead. The face that once looked angry, now turned back calm. A sweet smile with dimples adorned her face.


"Tomorrow don't forget, dear, you are beautiful."


"Actually I'm not ready, ma'am. But if it's delayed I'm afraid my stomach is getting bigger. It's been in two months."


"I also think like that. Don't think about anything else. Everything's gonna be okay."


"Yes, mas. You're not home, it's night."


"You're upset with me."


"Ehhh, that's not it. I mean .."


"Look, I know. Yes, I did, I said yes. You take care of yourself, don't stay up too often."


"Yes, you are also heart in the way."


*********


Day is Sunday. And just today I have to keep my word with Rohman. I was asked to come to his house and meet with the Rohman family.


I try to make myself as good as possible. By wearing gold color gamis with matching hijab. Don't forget to apply thin makeup. To make it natural not to look pale.


As I was standing in front of the mirror, a call came in. Rohman's name is on the screen. I immediately picked it up.


[Yes, haloo mas]


[You ready? This is me walking.]


[Yes, I'm ready.]


[Yes, heart of heart.]


Phone connection disconnected. It doesn't feel very calm. There's shame and fear if I ever meet the Rohman family.


I thought of something. There's no way I'm visiting without bringing anything. But I was confused as to what I would like to bring later. I'd better ask Rohman if I get there.


While waiting for Rohman I played a cell phone. My phone suddenly shook. A call came in with an unknown number. I let it go until the connection broke off by itself.


I open whatsap, no profile picture. I'm afraid someone will terrorize me again. Without thinking long I pressed the block button to avoid something unwanted.


The sound of someone knocking on the door. I thought it was Rohman. I hurried to open it. It was true, Rohman came. A sweet smile with dimples always adorned her face.


"Mas, come in first."


"Just go, baby, you'll be afraid too late."


"Well, wait, I'm gonna grab a bag for a second."


I locked the door to the hostel room and then I walked side by side with Rohrman. He used the car last night when we were both out together. Rohman opened the door and told me to come in.


"No need to overdo it, I can open it myself."


"Special for you, baby."


We both smiled at each other. Then I drove into the car. Rohman entered and sat in the steering wheel. Rohman put a seat belt on me.


Our faces were close together. My heart beats faster. Our eyes are looking at. Rohman's face drew closer as if giving a signal.


I closed my eyes. And a kiss landed on my lips. So soft and full of feeling.


"You're just more beautiful, baby. I love you more."


'Deg's.


Those words remind me of someone. My mind is disturbed again. Rendy's name came back to my mind.


"Darling, why are you daydreaming?"


"Eh, anu mas. I was thinking something."


"Think what? Don't tell me you're thinking of another man."


God, why Rohman can always read my mind. I'm a little nervous and scared if he gets angry again. Recalling when he was angry, his eyes were so sharp. As much as possible I look for reasons not to cause trouble.


"Ehm, I'm going to meet your parents. What good is it to bring? It seems very unlikely if I don't bring anything."


"Hmm, you just exist. No need to think about it, it will become a burden. Let me set it up. We'll stop by the cake shop.


"Yes, I'm following you."


"We're on the road now, baby."


"Good, mas."


Rohman began to drive the vehicle at a moderate speed. I turned my gaze to the side while looking along the street of Semarang city.


Rohman pulls out his car at a cake shop. He and I got out of the car and went into the cake shop.


Rohman ordered three boxes of brownies with a variety of toppings. While netraku saw a cake that seemed very good. The shape is also interesting, so I want to taste it.


"Ehm, I want this cake. It looks so good."


"Yes, I bought it, baby."


I smiled at him and thanked him. Just this time I dared to ask Rohman. Yes, even if it's just a cake.


"Mas, thank you."


"Yes, honey. I even grinned you like this. No need to worry anymore, yeah."


"Yes, inshaAllah mas."


We got into the car and Rohman started driving at a moderate speed. It only took fifteen minutes to get to his house. Because the distance is also not too far if using a vehicle.


The car is parked on a simple terrace with a large yard. Rohman and I went down and walked into the house. My heart was beating so hard and so nervous to meet the Rohman family.
