99 Love for You
99CU(S2): Ismail Application

...💟💟💟...

"Papa and Mama why don't you call me first if you want to come here? Where did my address come from?" Ismail immediately searched his parents with various questions.

"You are!!! Parents come to visit instead of happy, even asking questions. How many months have you not been home, huh? You're making Mama worry. Therefore, Mama invited Papa to bring you here," explained Mama Ismail.

"We know your address from Romi. Your friend," added Papa.

"So... Because of that girl you never came home?" seductive Mama.

"What the hell is Ma? It's not what Mama thought. Me and Cecil have nothing to do. We're just friends."

"Ckckck, how old are you, huh? Still lying to your mom. It's pretty obvious you like it."

"Really, Ma? Is it very clear that our son likes him?" Ask Papa sparkling.

"of course. Our son was willing to pick up his idol and become a private driver, and instead left his car at the office. That's what if it wasn't love, Pa?"

"No, no. It's not what Mama thought it was. Mama don't talk. Me and Cecil were just friends. Point." Ismail's countenance was flushed at this moment.

"You're still ashamed to admit your feelings? Would you like Mama to help?"

"Huh? Help out? Help what the hell Ma? Yes, it's night. Mama and Papa should rest first. Just use my room. Let me sleep on the couch. Now I want to go to the office first. I'll check my work and get the car. I'll go first."

Mama and Papa laughed amusedly at the behavior of their son whose face had met red like a boiled crab.

The next day, the,

"Lho's? Mammy? Isn't mom still not feeling well, why is it still morning already preparing breakfast?"

"Ismail's parents are visiting. It's not good if you don't welcome them well. All this time we've been troubling their son a lot."

Cecilia just scrunched her forehead. "Then you're gonna invite them to breakfast here?"

"No. You just take this breakfast to Ismail's house. Oh yeah, today I'm not going to the store. I have an appointment with my friends to meet. Can you keep the shop?"

"Mom's not feeling well, why would you leave?"

"Mother is just too stressed, not seriously ill. No need to worry. And later, ask someone to bring some of our best products to Ismail's parents."

"Yes, Mom. Alright. I'll take good care of the shop."

"Don't make your mother anxious like yesterday."

"Yes, mom. Don't worry."

...***...

"It's nice that every day someone sends you breakfast. You're part of their family, aren't you?" Mama teased Ismail.

"It's not so, Ma. Mother asked me to eat at her house every day."

"Hmm so. You even called her 'mother'. Pa, our son seems ready to get married."

"Mrs ... Don't tease me. I have to go to the office. Let me know if you want to go back to Bandung. I'll drop you off. My car I live at home, who knows Papa and Mama want to go around Jakarta. I'm leaving first, Ma, Pa. Assalamu'alaikum." Ishmael kissed the back of Mama's and Papa's hands.

"I think we should help our son, Pa. She's very shy, but her heart is kind."

"Papa tasa so too. And that girl, looks like a good girl."

...***...

"Lho, Mother Maria, would you like to go?"

"Yes. There's an appointment with a friend. You guys want to go too?"

"Aah actually... We're going to Mom's. But... Because I'm leaving, so..."

"Eh? Wanna go home? Oh then let's go in. You guys have come all the way here. Come inside!"

Mama and Papa Ismail threw eyes at each other. They finally entered Mary's mother's house. He canceled the show with his friends.

"Sorry mom, we're interrupting mom's show."

"It's okay. Could be replaced another day."

"Umm. We came here, because we want to convey something to my mother," said Mama Ismail carefully.

"Something? What'sthat?" Mary answered questioningly.

"Eh? Applying..?!"

Mary's eyes were wide open at the statement of Ishmael's parents.

...***...

"Lho's? Is mom home yet? I think I'm still with mom's friends." said Cecil when he found his mom at home.

"Mother is not leaving." answered Mary flatly.

"Why? You still don't feel well?"

Cecilia took a glass and filled it with water, then sat down opposite her mother at the dinner table.

"So Ismail's parents came here."

"Oh yeah? Then?" Cecilia sipped water in her glass.

"They want to propose to Ismail..."

"Uhukkp... Uhuukk..." Cecilia chokes.

"W-what?? Apply for me? So what's Mom's answer?" Ask Cecil curiously.

"Of course I refuse!"

"Eh? Denied?"

"Of course I refuse! Do you want me to take it, huh?"

"N-no, it's not that."

"From the beginning he came here, I already felt something strange. There must be something with him. It turns out that mother's guess was right. He moved here because he had feelings for you. But ..."

"But what's mom?"

"But he doesn't deserve you..."

"Mother....?"

"He deserves better than you. You know that, right? He's a brilliant guy. He should get a brilliant girl too."

Cecilia nodded. Then speechless. And the atmosphere was silent. Cecil gulped down all the water in the glass. And put the glass on the table. Then look far ahead.

a Few Hours Ago

"We want to propose to our mother's daughter, Cecilia, for our son, Ishmael."

"Eh? Proposing?"

"I'm sorry if you were suddenly impressed. But... We saw that our son and mother's daughter were already close to each other. So then... What is wrong if they are united in marriage. What do you think, mother?"

"Honestly, this was a surprise to me. Earlier I apologized if my answer was not pleasing in the hearts of father and mother. I have considered Ishmael like my own son. So then... I can't accept this proposal..."

"Eh? Why can't you, mom? Isn't it good because our son is already like a mother's own son."

"Your sons, are brilliant men. She deserves a better girl than my daughter. The cecilia... He had been married before, then separated. He did not deserve to be with Ishmael. So, I'm really sorry, I can't accept this proposal..."

"............"

both of Ishmael's parents were unable to speak anymore. They really feel ashamed.

"But you guys just calm down. I will take good care of your son. He remains my precious son."
