There was silence in the living room when Rayhan said what he wanted to tell his son.
A few minutes had passed, but Altair did not make a sound. The man felt uncomfortable hearing the word matchmaking coming out of the mouth of the man who made him present in the world.
Altair looked up where when mamah Giani clasped his hand, the man could see a sincere smile that he mamah lay.
"Said was going to marry young, why turn to be fooled by the son of om Samuel so silent anyway?" tanya Giani is full of gentleness.
"Om Samuel had two daughters" Altair said
"Father don't know if Samuel wants to mate Asa or Ayana, he just ngabarin papah if he wants to be besan, son. But it all depends on your decision. Which will take you, after all, the rest of your life is too long for the wrong partner," added Rayha wisely.
Altair let out a long sigh, there was doubt in his heart. He wanted to refuse, but was afraid that the girl to be betrothed was Asa. He wants to accept but is afraid of Ayana being betrothed.
"Not married, son, just fiancee first," continued Giani.
"Yes, anyways Samuel and Aunt Ara are good. Altair wants to, when's dinner?"
"Tomorrow night."

Asa, the girl sat on the balcony of her room while staring at the very bright star. Up there he was looking for a star called Altair. As the name Altair said star, so far is the distance between himself and the man he loves.
Altair, a very difficult man to have. The man who will soon be his sister-in-law.
If not thinking about everyone's feelings, Asa might have jumped from the balcony of her room. Free of life, after all his life was dependent on medicine.
Feeling the air was too cold, Asa finally entered the room. Close the balcony tightly.
Asa's gaze was fixed on the medicine bottle that was on the nightstand, she smiled. Take the medicine bottle and throw it in the trash.
Getting out faster is a better option. The attention of the beautiful girl was fixed on her mobile phone that vibrated repeatedly, checking the message sent by Altair without any intention of replying.
Lately Asa was crying too often, making her head hurt and soon blood will come out of her nose.
Tomorrow then? Maybe Asa's not going to school tomorrow, she has a reason to stay home. That is helping Mother Ara prepare the needs for dinner.
Asa hurriedly wiped her tears when she heard the sound of the door being knocked. Hiding the phone under the pillow and meeting Ayana behind the door.
"Sir Asa, I have good news again!" yang Ayana with a sparkling face.
Asa forced her smile, following Ayana who was walking towards the bed.
"If you knew it would be this easy, I've been telling you before."
"What the hell is that talking?"
"So the new father was from Aya's room, he said brother Altair agreed to be betrothed to me."
"Well, congratulations on deck. I'm so glad you got the Altair. Soon she'll be my sister-in-law." With a cleft face, Asa hugged Ayana quite tightly.
Behind his sister's body, Asa tried to hold the sobbing so as not to escape from her mouth. He did not know to be happy or sad to hear this.
"Kak Asa is crying?" ayana asked as she felt Asa's body tremble.
"No, my sister laughed. Not really expecting Altair will be your soul mate Ay. He's a nice guy and a little spoiled, so be smart to be his girlfriend."
"And there is brother Asa who will help Aya to ngibangin attitude brother Altair. You guys are friends, so Aya is even happier."
Silent
Asa did not say anymore, the girl painstakingly grabbed the tissue on the nightstand to wipe away the tears as well as the blood on her nose. Asa didn't want Ayana to know what she was suffering from.
"Sorry brother Dek, I guess tomorrow night can't be there because brother wants to go somewhere."
