Two months later. It does not feel just a little more target pass faster Kila achieved. It was thanks to Kila's persistence and because of Irsyad's help as well. Just waiting for graduation time, Kila was free from the status of the only students.
"Kila, he said Farhan wanted to play here. There's something to talk about he said." Irsyad, who was sipping bitter tea, just got a chat message from Farhan.
"Yeah? When, Brother? You want to eat here too, right? Let Kila cook more" asked Kila.
"Don't, Farhan can't eat my wife's cooking. Anyway, he'll be here after lunch he said. So, cook as usual with the usual portions, too" replied Irsyad. There is a topic with the word 'wife' makes a butterfly that has not been around for a long time before Kila's stomach approached him again. Reflex Kila smiled small.
"But, what do you want to say, huh?" ask Kila. He was done with his breakfast the next morning.
"Don't know. It seems like an important matter." Naturally Irsyad said so, because he knew Farhan had never sent a chat message to Irsyad suddenly in the morning like this.
"Let's go, brother. Later Brother is late, you know." Kila had finished washing the dirty dishes, while Irsyad was still struggling with his phone.
"I live, yes," said Irsyad.
...****************...
"So, what do you want to talk about, Han? It seems so important to say that you should listen to my opinion and Kila." After Kila treated her to a drink and a snack, Irsyad began a conversation.
"Yes, Brother. It concerns Farhan's lifetime," a serious tone sounded.
"Sir Farhan is really, really," joked Kila.
"This is serious, not exaggerated" Farhan said firmly.
"Yes, get to the point. What do you want to talk about?" irsyad said straightforwardly.
"Yuli and Farhan were betrothed" said Farhan briefly and concisely. Of course the news was very shocking Irsyad and Kila heard it.
"Huh?" I was shocked by Irsyad and Kila.
"When?" ask Irsyad.
"Where is the story, brother?" it was Kila's turn to ask.
"You don't mess with Yuli, right, until you have to be paired." Irsyad.
"To be held accountable, huh, Brother Farhan?" Kila invade.
"Huh...., I'm here to ask for an opinion, why even be judged, anyway, Kila? Brother Irsyad too, why think of getting there? How dare Farhan mess with Yuli." Farhan who was originally serious was a bit annoyed by it.
"Certain why? The question was answered by Dong, Brother Farhan." Kila started getting serious about the topic the three of them were talking about.
"It happened last night. Suddenly Farhan's parents made their way to Yuli's house at night" Farhan explained.
"Continue?"
"Continue.., yes, from there it is discussed about matchmaking," continued Farhan.
"Well, it happened very briefly. Kila thought it was more complicated. Hahaha" Kila joked again. It was deliberately done because he saw the tension in the look of Farhan's face. It really is a decision that concerns a lifetime, Kila thought.
"It's actually more complicated, Kila. I just don't want to remember what happened last night. I'm telling you the big line" Farhan replied.
"Like the time of Indonesian lessons first, Kak Farhan got a hundred, deh. You see, it really summarizes the contents of the story, concluding the contents of the story from the events that already exist. Haha."
"Yes indeed. I did get good grades in Indonesian lessons. From SD to college. Rising in High School, anyway, because there is Kak Irsyad who is teaching."
"Any quick turn of the topic, Han. Don't talk about me just yet. Discuss your problems! So, what about Yuli?" Irsyad.
"Not having a conversation, after the meeting with the old man?" ask Kila. Farhan just shook his head.
"I think Brother Yuli wants to stay away from everyone. It's hard to accept that fact, let alone the two of you from small together. Suddenly arranged so, surely anyone would be surprised. In fact, you only assume your relationship is nothing more than a friend. If suddenly asked to be serious, especially by parents, it must be difficult to accept that reality. I also argue that it is not good with parents. And Kak Farhan came here for an opinion because he was hesitant to meet the match, right? Kak Farhan also actually felt what Kak Yuli felt." Kila gave her opinion.
"Truely Kila, Han," Irsyad supported Kila's opinion.
"Now, Brother Farhan is here just want that story or what?" ask Kila. Farhan was silent for a moment. He was so confused all night that he couldn't sleep thinking about it. Then, his mind went to these two people Farhan admired to ask their opinions.
"I guess this topic doesn't really matter either, huh? Only able to take care of you two, when the original problem is not an important issue. Not about a lifetime either." Farhan smiled miris.
"Han, don't talk like that. Everyone wants a marriage once in a lifetime. Unless you want to polygamy and accept the terms. It's important, it's very important. Your decision is right to hear the opinions of others on this matter. It's not good to hold this alone. You're also not good at making rash decisions before considering well." Irsyad's turn expressed his opinion.
"Tuh Kak Farhan," support Kila.
"I and Kila here are just giving opinions. It would be nice, you are looking for another opinion to consider. And do not forget to ask God through istikharah" continued Irsyad.
...****************...
A week later, Kila was asked to meet with Farhan. However, since there was no Irsyad at home, he wanted to talk to Farhan outside the house. Do not forget to ask for help Risa who is not busy to accompany her.
"Crazy, sorry to wait so long. The work must be done first" said Farhan.
"Yes, no problem, brother."
"You really brought Risa as it turned out, yeah."
"Yes, it's better, isn't it, Brother Farhan? It is not good to let two people who are not mahrams meet in a less crowded place like this. Moreover, the purpose was to talk about something serious." Risa answered politely, but more sound jutek.
"Well..., ketus yeah. Remembering the same Yuli as it was."
"Don't equate me with him. We are two different people with different natures, too" denied Risa ketus.
"Udah, don't talk. Just talk about it directly. Not good for long. Kila and I also have a promise with Ira to meet." Risa starts to get angry with Farhan. Not wanting to find trouble with Risa, Farhan started the conversation.
"I've done istikharah. Even so, my heart still tends to reject that matchmaking. Yuli and I have been together since childhood, but I have not always been happy around her. His selfish nature and difficult to advise made my head dizzy. What happens when I become her husband? It could be out of my patience to see the nature of it," said Farhan.
"Don't rush. Do istikharah continue, do the effort also to speak well to Brother Yuli. About Kak Yuli's nature, everyone can change. Maybe by getting used to living with Kak Farhan will make him aware of his behavior, change his nature, and listen to Kak Farhan's advice as a husband later," said Kila gave his opinion.
"Eh, Kil. It's mute, deh, I guess. Where is the point, again. The important point has not been discussed?" Risa cut.
"important points? What's up, Ris?" Farhan asked.
"You can't tell me when your wedding will be. That's the important point. If it's still a long time, you still have time to try to change the nature of the Yuli for the better, you still have time, under the pretext that you will be a priest who must continue to remind the Yuli in kindness and patience" said Risa.
"Yes, Brother Farhan. Did both parties decide on when the wedding would take place?" ask Kila. For a moment Farhan bowed.
"I don't know either, Kila. We are still young. Yuli just graduated, and still depends on her parents. Our parents said faster was better. The matter of time, either I or Yuli could propose wanting to do it when," Farhan replied lethargicly.
"That's an opportunity, try it first and do the kayak that Risa conveyed earlier, sister," support Kila.
"But delaying marriage is not good. If there is good faith, already have the blessing of parents as well, better be hastened," continued Kila. Farhan did not flinch. It was very difficult to say the thing held back by his tongue to Kila.
"To be honest, I didn't want to do marriage at such a young age. Young marriage is just an excuse for people to channel their lust to their partners. There is no mental or material readiness, just as it brings the marriage into ruin. Moreover, young age tends to still be unstable. It could be that a small problem becomes big because of that stability. Not to mention, taking care of a difficult wedding. For an educated person, one could have to sacrifice education just to get married. The education plan that has been prepared, will not go well according to expectations. It could be that by getting married, I will be late to take the S2 education that I have planned," explained Farhan. Risa even ignited her emotions hearing Farhan's explanation, then suddenly stood up and looked down at Farhan.
"What do you mean? To offend my friend? It's good Kila wants to come here to listen to your insignificant babble, you even say inappropriate words. Let's get out of here, Kila. Let him solve his own problems. He is too dependent on man and forgets that he still has a God that should be his place to depend on. Do not want to be asked for help or opinions like this again," said Risa who is emotional. He pulled Kila's hand to leave Farhan immediately.
