They talk about a lot of things. Until Liam finally said goodbye to clean himself up.
"Ma, I'm gonna take a shower. I stayed" said Liam.
"Yes, don't be long, Kasian Lesya will wait" said his mother.
"Well, I have to wait. People from earlier also diem-diem aja no voice" inner Lesya.
A few minutes later, the voice of Maghrib was heard.
"Ee,, aunt, excuse me. Can I pray here ?" Lesya.
"By dong dear. How about we have a name" suggested Mama Lia.
"May I have a aunt ?".
"Bby dong. Come pah, papa who imammi" orders mama Lia to her husband.
"Come, let me take ablution first. Uh, don't you wait for Liam ?" said mr. tama.
"No, later. Liam took a long shower. The time-hunt's up. Let him pray by himself" said Mama Lia.
Then they also perform Maghrib prayers. After the prayer, Lesya did. He was grateful that Liam's parents were so kind. They were very warm to Lesya.
After all finished each other's prayers, Lesya greeted both Liam's parents. But when it was his turn to greet Aunt Lia, he grabbed Lesya and embraced her.
"Darling, please accept Liam as your companion. He is stiff and boring, but he is actually a good figure" said Mama Lia while patting Lesya's back.
Deg,,, uh,,,
Lesya's heart was filled to hear Aunt Lia's words. He remembers his agreement again with Liam. "Maybe if it wasn't for the agreement I could love her. But because of the agreement, I have to be careful with my heart" Lesya said and tried to hold back her tears.
Then Lesya returned the hug of Aunt Lia and stroked her back. He was confused to answer Aunt Lia's words.
"Madam, dinner is ready" suddenly came and broke their warm embrace.
"Let's go kid, we're getting ready for dinner" Aunt Lia. And in reply to a nod by Lesya.
"Oh yes mbok. Please get Liam to tell him to come down for the grave tonight" said Mama Lia.
"Injeh madam" replied mbok ijah with polite Javanese.
Then Aunt Lia and Lesya went from the prayer place to the dining table.
*
Liam who was in his room and finished with the ritual bath and prayers lay himself in his bedroom bed. He daydreams about Lesya. Somehow he likes to see Lesya's interaction with both parents.
Tok tok....
I heard the door of his room knock.
Liam immediately opened the door. I was seen by a woman who was standing in front of the door of her room.
"What is mbok ?" Liam.
"Young master in waiting for the mistress and master at the dining table". The mbok ijah.
"Yes, all right" said Liam.
Then Ijah left Liam. Liam went back to his room to get his cell phone. Then he left his room and went down to the dining table.
Lesya who saw Liam coming down the stairs immediately looked at him. Lesya was fascinated by the appearance of Liam who only wore long black jeans and black T-shirts. His appearance still looks handsome and masculine. With a relaxed touch.
Liam who realized his steps were noticed by Lesya and then cleared his throat to wake up Lesya's daydream.
"Eheemm" dehem Liam's. Then Lesya turned her eyes. Fortunately when Lesya looked at Liam, Aunt Lia did not notice because she was busy arranging dishes for them.
"Eh, you're done. Come sit here" said Mama Lia who is now standing from her seat. Because before he was sitting next to Lesya and now he was sitting on another chair opposite Liam. And Liam was sitting next to Lesya who was in his mother's seat.
Mama Lia was busy picking up rice for her husband and son. When Mama Lia grabs Lesya's plate to get her some rice, Lesya prevents it.
"Let me get you aunty first" said softly Lesya as she threw her smile.
"All right" said aunt Lia.
After that he took the rice for himself.
"It's very clever of you to lick my mama" Liam whispered to Lesya.
Lesya squinted her eyes and furrowed her brows.
"I'm just applying manners huh. Looks like you don't understand the manners" Lesya whispered.
"Why Li ?" Asked the tama master who noticed the two whispering.
"There is no reward. I just told him to eat a lot so as not to be thin dry" ledek Liam.
"Puff... You guys are so funny. Adorable" said aunty Lia while holding back a laugh.
Lesya smiled stiffly in response to the words of her mother Liam.
They finished the dinner. Aunt Lia started the conversation because it was too long of a silence.
"Li, so when are you ready to get married ?" Ask mama Lia without further ado.
"Liam's plan is a week away" Liam replied.
Uhhuuk...
Lesya choked on hearing Liam's words.
Aunt Lia immediately poured a drink for Lesya.
"Here's the drink, son" offered a drink to Lesya.
"Slow down" Liam told Lesya.
"Why dear ?" Ask aunt Lia.
"I'm a little surprised aunt" replied Lesya.
"Why?, aren't you ready yet ?" Ask aunt Lia in a soft tone.
"Everybody is not ready, must be ready" Liam said.
"That's not what dong Liam can do. Lesya must also be ready first" said her mother.
"Tau, once dapet really did" ledek tama tuan.
Liam turned his head slightly towards Lesya, and glanced at her with a sharp and cynical look. Making Lesya shrink at Liam's intimidating gaze.
"Sa, I'm ready for auntie om" Lesya said in a slightly stuttering voice.
Aunt Lia smiled at Lesya's words.
"Then we'll be married in a week" Liam said.
"All right, don't worry, baby. Let the auntie prepare everything" Aunt Lia grabbed Lesya's hand that still held her glass on the table and held it.
"Where's the reward?, Papa agrees, right ?" Aunt Lia asked her husband.
"I agree. Papa blesses him" said tama.
Instead of feeling happy like a couple who will get married, Lesya felt confused by the situation. Even though he knew of the risks with the decisions taken beforehand. He also wants to not want to accept it.
Because the clock has shown at 8 pm, Lesya also said goodbye to go home.
"Om, aunt. Thank you for dinner" said Lesya.
"Yes dear. Come here often" said aunt Lia.
"In pingit dong mah, soon we will come here" said tama.
"Ow iyya, mom Forgot. You take care of your health. Be careful" Aunt Lia's message to Lesya.
"Yes aunt. Then I say goodbye first" then he grabbed the hand of the old master and took turns to Aunt Lia to regret it.
Liam was ready to stand up to escort Lesya.
"Be careful to bring your future daughter-in-law" Lia told Liam.
"Heem" Liam replied briefly.
"Assalamu'alaikum" said Lesya greeting and then stepped out of the house.
"Waalaikumsalam" unison aunty Lia and tama answered him. Then they followed Liam and Lesya from behind to drive her forward. They waited for the two to leave.
"They are compatible with the reward" said aunt Lia who was still looking at Liam's car that had been seen far away.
"Yes mah" replied tama.
\_Ohho... Would soon marry. Wait for the next story. 😊
Thank ye. 🙏
