Trapped in the Love of the Past

Eps. 45

My steps are near the door. And I can hear the voice of the Rohman family talking. Sometimes they hear their laughter.

And finally me and Rohman were already standing right at the entrance. It turned out that the Arman family was gathering in the living room

I say hello, and all eyes are on me. I was so nervous and embarrassed to step in.

"Assalamualaik."

"Vaalaikumsalam. Everyone in the room answered my greetings. They looked at me and smiled at me.

"Please come in, son. Sit here with the Rohman family."

"Good, mom."

I stepped in and greeted all of Robman's family while introducing myself. They all welcomed me very kindly.

I sat right in front of Arman's parents. I looked down embarrassed and did not dare to look at the two Rohman elders. I was confused where to start the conversation. But soon enough, Rohman's mother started a conversation. I looked nervous and afraid of not being accepted into this family.

"Son, we all know about you. I've also been figuring out who you are, your background, and your circumstances."

"Yes ma'am." As much as possible I try to calm down.

"Mom initially had doubts about you. But I'm curious about you, son. That's why I told Rohman to bring you here." I can only nod and smile.

"Actually I objected to Rohman's decision. But once I see you, I can't say anything else." With a little courage I cut the conversation.

"Sorry ma'am, sir, if I speak up. I am not a rich family. I know that I am a dirty woman who is pregnant without a husband. But that's all beyond expectations. I don't want to be like this either. If my father and mother don't approve of me with Rohman, I'm fine. Maybe we haven't been a match." Without me noticing, I spoke until my tears were dripping down my cheeks.

"Yes son, I know it all. But one thing I want to say. The Rohman was barren and most likely could not give any offspring. One mother question for you, can you accept Arman as he is?"

"It depends Rohman ma'am. I was pregnant but not her son. What Rohman can also accept my situation like this. Are the mother and father's family not ashamed later."

"Well son, I'm giving it all up to Rohman. Because Rohman will be the one to live. We as parents can only provide support. How are you Rohman?"

"If father and mother give their blessing, Rohman wants to marry Lissa. Rohman will try to accept Lissa and the child in her womb." Rohman answered confidently.

"You heard Rohman's answer, son. How are you now?"

"God willing, sir, Lissa will accept Rohman for who he is."

"Yes, mother's advice you better get married soon. If postponed delay fear later your content will get bigger."

"I'll follow you, how good."

"Then we'll get married next month."

"It's up to you, but I don't want a big party. If you don't mind I want something simple, mas."

"Yes, let's set how good it is."

"Son, when can we all meet your family?"

"Maybe next week, ma'am. Let me go home and tell you everything."

"Yes, I've been waiting for news from you, son."

"Yes mom. Earlier I said many thanks to my mom and dad for the blessing. And for you, thank you for accepting my situation."

Rohman smiled at me and started stroking my hair. I smiled with relief at this news. Nervousness, fear, and tension now disappear with the arrival I did not think it turned out Arman family is very good.

I am so lucky. Behind the trials that come in tubers, and this is what I got. Maybe I should let go of what I already have. I hope that there will be nothing to stand in my way and Rohman's way.

Instantly in my mind crossed the name Chika. God, why do I feel so bad. I'm a little worried about that guy.

"Mas, what about Chika. I'm afraid he'll terrorize me like he used to."

"What, son? Chika terrorized you?"

"I.iya ma'am, but that was it. I'm just afraid if it happens again if he knows me and Rohman will get married."

"You're calm. I hope it won't happen." Rohman tried to calm me.

"Yes, um."

After talking about me and Rohman, Heni invited us all to eat together. Because it was prepared before I came.

***********

It's getting late. Since coming home from Rohman's house, my body has been very tired. Head back dizzy. Maybe because I didn't sleep this afternoon.

I washed my face, hands, and feet. After that I lay down and rest. A message came in via whatsap. I'm actually very sleepy. But out of curiosity fear that something was important I opened it immediately.

[Darling, are you asleep?]

[It was going to sleep, but since there was an incoming message so I opened it first. It was from you, mas. What's up?]

[Nothing, I'm just missing.]

[You just existed, you just met.]

[Yes, but now I'm missing again.]

I replied to Rohman's message with a smiling emoji. And then Rohman didn't call me for long. I hurry up and immediately nodded.

[Yes, why]

[i want to hear your voice.]

[That's you, the day after tomorrow I'll see you again. I want to be left wherever you go like this.] Rohman laughed a little.

[Oh, baby, when are you coming home?]

[Maybe tomorrow. Faster is better if you talk about it.]

[Good thing, but sorry I couldn't deliver.]

[Yes, it's okay.]

[It seems my family later if there is news from you, I want to propose to you directly. Let it not be late.]

[Ehm, it's up to you. Set how good it will be.]

[What do you want for a dowry, honey?]

[Anything mas, the important thing is that you are not capable and do not mind.]

[Dear, what will you say.]

[I will not sue. As much as you can]

[You are different, baby. Lucky for me if I have you. I hope you like what I give you.]

[Yes, god willing.]

[Yes, it's night. You just rest.]

[Yes, my mom.]

[Oh yes, the cost to return home tomorrow is]

[There is money from you yesterday.]

[Yes, don't ever hesitate if you need something. If I can do it, I will surely. And never refuse what I give you.]

[I.iya mas, I understand.]

[Yes, baby, good rest.] The telepeon connection was severed unilaterally. I also decided to rest.
