Really Ais did not show if it would be needed very well from her mother Hanafi. Even so good, his mother Hanafi to offer Hanafi to Ais, because he saw the child who never wanted to approach a woman. Hanafi who held firm stance did not want to date, not at all interested in the talk of his mother while holding Ais after the end of the study.
Hanafi's mother already knew about Ais's past. And now the idah Ais period is also over. That's a sign Ais can continue his life again. Hanafi's mother accepted the widowed status of Ais.
"How is it, if you are willing, mother and father will come to Jogja to talk to your parents." Hanafi's mother asked for an answer to the question that had been given to Ais.
Of course Ais's face instantly reddened and her body instantly became tense. Very beyond his prediction if it turns out that his mother Hanafi has other plans besides inviting Ais to attend a lecture at his home.
"Mom, it's not good to force others. Ice takes time, especially at this time Ice is still traumatized by failure. Let Ais enjoy her delayed youth" said Hanafi, who was deeply embarrassed by her mother's request to offer herself to Ais. Though not Hanafi not practice and no one wants to. Hanafi is not ready to get married.
"Hanaf! How long will you refuse to marry? You're almost three heads old and you don't want to get married? What else do you want to wait for, Han? I'm tired of looking for a soul mate for you. What do you really want a woman like? Although I have not known Ais deeply but I am sure if Ais is a good woman. Actually, it's been a long time that I want to meet Ais, but because Ais is busy in college, I don't want to bother her. Are you going to be single until old?"
"Mom, it's not like that. Didn't Hanaf ever tell mother that Hanaf would marry when Hanaf's heart was ready. Hanaf's heart isn't ready, Mom. Hanaf was not ready to become a priest, because Hanaf still had many shortcomings. If the time has come, believe me, Hanaf will get married." Hanafi tried to give his mother some understanding.
"Yes, I know. But there's nothing wrong if you open your heart to Ais" said her mother, who insisted on wanting to be fascinated with Ais since her first glance.
"But ice also takes time, ma'am. Ice, you don't have to hear what mom says, yeah! Right now you need to focus on your studies. Come on, I'll take you home!" hanafi said to Ais.
Ais really feels bad for Hanafi's mother, but for now Ais is not ready to have a relationship with any man, including Hanafi, even though that man is the dream man of women.
"Getishalam."
Actually Hanafi's mother felt very disappointed because she did not get an answer from Ais. Somehow he was so interested in the figure of Ais who had just been known. It's like there's pull data in Ais's body to lure her. The heavy breathing sounded so long.
"Easy, Mom. Don't force yourself. Let Hanaf find his own ribs. We as parents do not have the right to interfere with the problem of marriage for children. Hanaf's words have a point, currently Ais is still in shock with reality. Don't let me also add to the burden of Ice, Mom!" Mr. Hanafi tried to advise his wife.
"Yes, Sir. Mom knows that. I just feel sorry for Adam's story that until now Ais has not been able to forget her ex-husband. There is no harm if we make Hanaf to bandage the wound of Ice. I won't demand anything from Ice. You know the relationship between Hanaf and Adam is very good. We also consider Adam to be part of our family. Then what's wrong if we help him, sir?"
"You're right, Mom. But give Ais time. You know the intentions of good mothers, but do not let good intentions become a burden for others. Did you forget about Adam who said he didn't allow anyone to propose to Ais before he graduated? It's free for you to put pressure on Hanaf, if in fact Adam doesn't give you permission."
At once Hanafi's mother could only resign. Although Ais was a widow, but her aura was still that of a young child in general. It does not look like a widow at all, because age is still young.
"If Hanaf had met Ais sooner, I wouldn't have wasted a daughter-in-law as good and beautiful as Ais. I wonder what her ex-mother-in-law Ais is like."
