Between Love and Love
Do you know what sincerity means?
Awan soon returned to Jakarta, after he found out from Aini that Tara could not be contacted. After their meeting a few days ago Aini firmly rejected the matchmaking. Because he knew that the Clouds loved Tara. Both of Aini's parents had no problem with that either. Of course the Clouds are very grateful to the woman.
A few days ago...
"Umi, I'm sorry Aini. It seemed like Aini could not accept this matchmaking. He loves other women and that woman was Aini's best friend while in Surabaya," Aini said with her face down.
As he prepared a drink for Awan and his family, he ventured to express his rejection of the arranged marriage. How could he possibly hurt Tara.
" A little orphan girl you told me about, is she? Then, where do you know if they love each other?" tanya Umi ascertains Aini's story.
"I met them at a food festival. Tara does not say that they are a couple because the two are not dating and Tara also has not received the love of Awan. But, the Clouds firmly said they were a couple. Her look at Tara was love ma'am. And Aini was also very happy to see that. Tara is a good woman, she deserves to be happy and loved by the Clouds. How could I possibly ruin their relationship mom? And again can I marry a person who is clear in her heart there is already another woman? Can I be happy with my marriage?" ask Aini and also explain at length about the Clouds.
" Well then that's your decision, Umi will convey this to abah. Your decision is right, son. " Answer Umi.
" Nobody is ashamed of this. It's good you said from the beginning. Abah and Umi want our children to be happy. In the matchmaking is not wrong as long as the two accept each other but, you one of the parties can not why should be forced? This is not the time of Siti Nurbaya who must be willing and cannot refuse. Your life is you who decide, son." Said Umi who gave advice to Aini.
" Will my friend and brother's friendship be damaged by this? It could also be that his friend didn't accept it and then got angry because he was embarrassed." Aini guessed what would happen later about the relationship between her parents and Awan's parents.
"You know what sincerity means, don't you? We have been friends for a long time and we are all sincere. We will not break our relationship just because of this. Trust me, everything will be fine. Didn't you also say from the beginning you have the right to refuse if you want. And you also showed the man's face and you were given time to think but, now you refuse even if it doesn't matter. "
" But that time what I saw was not her umi. I saw the man next to her. That's why Aini wants to accept this," replied Aini who a few minutes later she covered her mouth with the right palm.
Umi smiled, it seems like here there is a misunderstanding. Maybe what her husband showed her at that time was Hafis not Clouds. Maybe Hafis will be their daughter-in-law later.
" Oh, so isn't he? Umi already understands. Come on, let's get the drinks ahead!" Take Umi.
