"I cannot get married if I have not been a Git soldier for 2 years, after all I went to the east" replied Ilyas flatly..
"So you want this story?" Sigit frowned looking at his best friend who was just smiling.
"Take that, I'd like to ask you a favor!"
"What the hell can I help you with? you already have everything" Sigit smiled looking at Ilyas curiously.
"Do you know Ida's address? isn't your ex Fida Ida's best friend.Maybe you guys used to be there?"
Instantly broke Sigit's laughter..
"You're funny deh Yas. dating time almost 7 years do not know Ida's house. ngaco you ha. ha. ha. ha.."
"I do not know his home.me and he dated long distance.never communication and met also just a coincidence.in 7 years only met twice..!" obviously Ilyas made Sigit's laughter stop..
"I used to go to his house once, his house is in village B, nearby there is a home cracker factory owned by his parents, his father's name if not wrong sir Ilham and his mother Bu Nuraini.. must have met deh" Sigit gave a hint while remembering.
"Well broo.thank you, then I say I'll try to find it!" Ilyas moved from his seat with vigor.
"Ciyeeeee.. The spirit is so brooo!" sigit's Goda with his laugh.. Ilyas just smiled.
"Greet your wife.may her birth pass"
Ilyas patted his best friend's shoulder and started tuning his bike.
"Amin.. be careful.have a fight!" Sigit looked at Ilyas who was slowly starting to move away from his place.
With certainty Ilyas drove his motor to the address given Sigit. Sometimes he stopped to ask people familiar with the area a bit far from his home but it seemed he was no stranger to the area.. yes this area is what he always passes when running around the city during practice.then Ilyas entered the village road after seeing the name of the village in the entrance gate.. and looking for a cracker factory that says Sigit..
Confused he stopped when he saw a middle-aged woman watering flowers in front of his house.
"assalamualaikum mom.. want to ride her!"
"Waallaikum salam.yeah..?" answer the woman.
"May you know Ida's house.His son was Ilham and Nuraini's mother?"
"Sorry to know this kid is ready Ida?" ask the mother curious.
"I'm a friend of Mom's" Ilyas replied with a smile.
"Where's the victory?" it was as if she was interrogating Ilyas.
"I am Ilyas his friend since Junior High" Ilyas still answered calmly..
"O so.. means also know April?" The woman was still asking incessantly her curiosity.
"April, ma'am? yes I know well" Ilyas tried to calm down even though his heart was less like in interrogation..
"I'm April's mother and Ida's budenya" the woman finally introduced herself with a smile.
"Pril.there's your friend!" the woman shouted, and not for how long from inside the house came out a young woman while holding a small child.
The young woman who was none other than April researched Ilyas from top to bottom..
"As familiar.. Who is it?" April recalled and then her eyes sparkled.." You're Ilyas right?"
Ilyas smiled as he nodded.. April smiled broadly..
"You want to find Ida?" further April.
"Yes pril, but do not know his home" replied Ilyas surely..
"There's another assignment.he's not home.Not too long ago he stopped here and left.maybe come home later at 8 pm" explained April.
Ilyas looks so disappointed.Hope wants to take Ida away destroyed already. Though it was thought after he left whether he would return.Is Ida still going to be his. The worry Ilyas felt all the time.
"Let me take you..!" tawar April who greeted Ilyas nod.
After saying goodbye to April's mother, Ilyas was escorted April to Ida's house which was not too far from the place.
"Assalamualaikum.." said Ilyas and April almost simultaneously..
"Waallaikum salam.." sahut from the inside. moments later the door opened and saw his mother Ida out of the doorway.
"Oh.. April...what is nduk...who is it?"
"Yes Bulik.. April anter friend.This is Ilyas she nyari Ida" explained April..
"Go in first..!" Bu Nuraini invited them in and sat down.
"I'm Ilyas Ma'am, his friend Ida and April since Junior High" Ilyas introduced himself.
"But Ida went to work, son. not at home.."
"I know.. April said, I'm here to see mom and dad there ?" Ilyas tries to find safety by asking for the blessing of Ida's parents.
"Let's call you soon.."
Bu Nuraini came out to the side of the house where his cracker factory was located. Shortly afterwards he came back with a middle-aged man who still looked handsome and handsome..
"this must be his father Ida. is still handsome. panther only his son is beautiful and so I can not turn away from him" Ilyas said in his heart.
"I'm Ilyas sir" Ilyas stood up and greeted Mr. Ilham.
With a friendly Mr. Ilham welcome guests who come.. Bu Nuraini and April went to the kitchen to make drinks.. Ilyas was a little nervous about facing his father Ida, but he was an officer who had to brave anything.
"I'm sorry what's needed here?" ask Mr. Ilham kindly. smile can not be separated from his lips.
"Look sir.I came here first to bersilahturahmi.the second frankly sir.I like father Ida and we have been together since Junior High.. so I'm here to ask for the blessing of my father and mother" Ilyas without further ado on the subject.
Mr. Ilham responded calmly and remained a smile.
"Son.pardon in advance, for our blessing as parents will definitely give the origin of happy children but at this time Ida does not exist. father and mother although as parents are not entitled to decide.. let Ida decide for herself"
"I understand sir, the important thing now is that I just want to meet with my father and mother to ask Ida for me before I go to the east.. someday if we were a match after two years of duty inshaallah I would invite my parents here. I want to go more serious stage.." Ilyas calmly explained the reason.
Mr. Ilham was inwardly amazed by Ilyas' calmness and politeness, despite his cold character...
"Son was happy as Ida's parents there was a man who asked her.what else is Ilyas' mother so serious about this relationship.but we better wait for Ida.. let's call her mom. don't try Ida on the phone!"
"yes sir.."
Bu Nuraini took her phone and searched for No Ida..
"Tip.. Tut.. "
"Hallo Assalamualaikum..what's wrong?" reply from sebrang..
"Waallaikum salam's.. Not busy?"
"No buk . but soon the patient screeched at 4 o'clock.emang what buk" sound Ida across curiously.
"Can you ask permission to go home now, right..? there's this urgent matter!"
"What the hell is Ma'am until Ida has to go home. No one hurts, right ma'am?" ida's voice panicked so much there..
"No. We're all healthy. There's only your friend coming here.nak Ilyas"
"What Mom..? Ilyas home?" Ida was so surprised mixed happy, but unfortunately she is still in the hospital.
"Yes nduk. nak Ilyas asked for a prayer of blessing on father and mother to be with you.."
