The dinner went well, although there was a bit of an accident. Because it was night, mama told Adam to take Tiwi home, even though he had brought his own motorbike. Tiwi refused it. He shook hands with his mother and immediately drove his motorbike out of the courtyard.
"You are Dam, you are Tiwi, women come home alone at night" said Mama, looking at Tiwi's departure.
"But Tiwi is insistent ma, want to go home alone, even though it has been bargained repeatedly."
Adam was wrong. Because he was actually angry with his mother for letting Tiwi go home alone, but he also did not have the heart.
The next day, Adam after work took the time to stop by Tiwi's house to see his mother who a few days ago came home from the hospital. Not to forget he also brought parcel fruit and snacks.
"Assalamu'alaikum" he said, knocking on the door.
After a few greetings, finally the door was opened by his father Tiwi.
"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Doctor n's son?" reply mr. Somad.
Adam shook Somad's hand before entering the house. After providing a drink, Mr. Somad let Adam drink it, then try the cilok that is served.
"What a son of a pack of his lilok races." praise Adam sincerely.
They finally talked to each other. Didn't forget Adam asked about the situation of Ms. Siti. Finally Mr. Somad called his wife and they talked together.
"If you may know, what was the purpose of Adam coming here?" sela pak Somad as Adam chews a lick.
Adam is confused by Somad's question. Until he answered the truth.
"Of course I want to see my mother, sir. Why is it, sir?"
"Seeing the proximity of the doctor with Tiwi, I think there is a special relationship" said Siti to the point. So as to make Adam choke from his eating activities.
"I apologize in advance, doctor. I do not want to arise slander from the neighbors with the arrival of the son of Adam here. We still have an unmarried daughter. Surely they'd have thought if Adam wanted Tiwi's girlfriend. Understandably, life in the village is like this. Adam better cut down on the time he comes here. Sorry if my word is less pleasing in the heart of Adam's son. I've aged, I just want a serious man and will be the soul mate Tiwi who came here."
DEG!
Like being struck by lightning Adam's heart heard the expression of Mr. Somad's heart. In his heart he confirmed the words of the old man before him.
Adam, it's not just want to visit Ms. Siti. He wanted to be able to get along with both of Tiwi's parents, and that was one way. I don't know why he wanted to do that.
"I'm sorry for my arrival that made my father and mother uncomfortable with the neighbors, sir, Mom. Honestly, I want to establish friendship with the family of my mother's father in order to increase brothers."
"I accept the goodwill of Adam. Hopefully it can be done."
Soon the sound of the motor makes them look at each other.
While Tiwi who had just returned home from work, frowned in surprise, looking at the car she had memorized so much. With a slow step he set foot on the porch of the house while greeting.
"Assalamualaik."
"Wa'alaikumussalam." reply they compact.
Tiwi immediately stepped in and greeted her parents. Then go into the room.
'Why did he go straight into his room? Don't you see me here? Or do not like my arrival? Does he also have the same principles as his parents, only allowing a man who is his match to come here?'
After enough conversation, Adam said goodbye. Once again both of Tiwi's parents apologized for any discomfort that might have been created during the conversation.
All the way home, Adam kept thinking about Mr. Somad's words.
'Did both of her parents think I was Tiwi's boyfriend? Am I being too naive to admit my feelings in front of others?'
Everyone near Adam said he was in love, but he always denied it.
"Where have you been, Dam, how come you just got home?" ask her mother when Adam greets her mom sitting in the living room reading an online novel.
"From."
"Tumben once." Mama replied while looking at him. He saw his son who was not well.
"You got a problem?"
"What is true that others say? Am I in love? But why should it be with him? Are there no other girls? What am I supposed to do? Remove it from my memory or leave it alone?"
After monologuing alone, Adam fell asleep, without having time to remove the attributes that are still attached.
"I received the marriage and the marriage of Pratiwi bint Abdul Somad with the mascawin was paid in cash."
"Well." Right." "Well." Right." "Well." Right."
"Alhamdulillah."
"Please, groom to kiss the bride's forehead."
Bugh.....
"Arghhh...... It hurts."
Adam fell from his bed and rolled on the floor. He scanned around the room while frowning. He also rubbed his eyes repeatedly.
"Huh, so this is all just a dream?" he murmured while opening his eyes repeatedly.
"Oh my God, why does it look real?"
"Am I getting too carried away to dream about it."
Adam sat up leaning against his bed. He thought about the series of events that he experienced so that he became close to Tiwi and now even dreamed of it.
After pondering for quite a while, he performed the tahajud prayer. He prayed for calm.
After the prayer he intended to go back to sleep, but his eyes never closed. The shadow of Tiwi kept haunting him.
He also intended to take a bath so that his mind was calm and the shadow of Tiwi disappeared. But instead of it materializing, in fact the shadow of Tiwi always comes.
Until a week passed he constantly dreamed of Tiwi.
"It looks like I have to make a decision." Adam muttered after waking up.
"Ma, can I talk?"
"Need to say yes by the way, why use all permission, usually not so?" reply Andira relax. Her mother agreed.
"I seem to have to propose to Tiwi."
Uhuk...Uhuk
Mama and Andira coughed at the same time so that they immediately grabbed the drink, then gulped it down to the toilet. After she calmed down, her mother looked at her.
"Well, didn't you hear me wrong, did you?"
"Yes, Dira didn't hear wrong, did she?"
"I know my mom's and Dira's ears are still working fine. So you don't hear me wrong." said Adam flat.
He knew, surely his family would be surprised by the decision he took. He wanted to propose to a woman he had not known for a long time and had never dated her at all.
"Horry." Andira cheered in joy at the words of her brother.
"Alhamdulillah, when are you going to propose to her?"
"Later what night?"
"Agree." said Andira quickly.
