The atmosphere at this dinner table was a bit gripping, there was no chatter other than the clanking of spoons clashing against forks. Natasha looked down a lot more because she was currently in the eyes full of intimidation of the mother-in-law. The food on the table that actually has a delicious taste is bitter on his tongue. It felt so different when he ate with Andra's parents.
After dinner, Yoga asked Natasha to return to her room, while she obeyed Papih Prasetya's orders to meet him in his study.
" Get in, Ga.." - Papa Yoga said when he heard the door of his room was knocked. " Sit here ..." Papa Yoga ordered Yoga to sit in a chair next to his couch.
Yoga had glanced at his mamih who was sitting right next to his papi still put on a cold facial expression.
" Tell us, how did your marriage happen?" ask Papa Yoga later.
Yoga manages her breathing before beginning to tell the story of her relationship journey with Natasha.
" In fact Yoga and Natasha did not plan this sudden wedding, Pih. Yoga knew Natasha and Yoga helped her several times when she needed the help of Yoga ..."
" Tuh, right. What did mamih say too?! That woman must be using you, Yoga!" sergeant Mama Yoga cut off her son's speech.
" Mih, listen to the story of Yoga first," said Papa Yoga interrupts.
" Natasha is not what Mamih thinks. And the help he needs isn't material, Mih. Natasha has no shortage of materials, she has her own business, she has some boutique business in Jakarta. The help he needs is protection. Yoga helped her when her car was mobbed while she was sharing groceries with people in need." Yoga uttered his sentence with the tail of his eyes that led to his mamih directly turning his face.
" Well, he shared a pot? Good that." Unexpectedly Papa Yoga chimed which increasingly made the face of Mama Yoga more bent.
" Yes, Pih. Until he doesn't think about his safety, he's just the two with his secretary down the street to give fortune to those in need."
" Hmmm ..." Papa Yoga mangosteen.
" When papa was sick in Bandung, Yoga accompanied him, Pi. Because Yoga is afraid of something happening to him on the road, because he has to bring his own vehicle. It was then that Yoga was introduced to Natasha's parents, and eventually Papa Farhan asked Yoga to marry Natasha before she died."
" Is Natasha's father dead?" ask Papa Yoga, it seems Papa Yoga is not too focused when Natasha explained this afternoon.
" Yes, Pih. A few hours after our qobul ijab."
" Innalillahi wainnaillaihi rojiuun" said Papa Yoga sympathized.
" Natasha is a good woman, Pih, Mih. He never disputed the status of Yoga which he saw as a student and driver at that time. His parents can also accept Yoga well, not demeaning the work of Yoga. Therefore Yoga is willing to marry Natasha, even if still in series." Yoga does not all tell the beginning of the meeting with Natasha, she only takes part that can support her to get the blessing of her parents.
Papa Yoga then sighed for a moment hearing the words Yoga. " Prayoga, marriage is a sacred thing, if it can only happen once in a lifetime. The promise of marriage cannot be toyed with, because you are not just a promise in front of your ruler, witnesses, parents and wife. But the most important thing is that at that time you have promised in front of Allah SWT, because it requires careful preparation for each couple to go to the marriage stage ..." Papa Yoga paused his sentence for a while. " Payoga, honestly Papih is disappointed, you are Papih's only son and Mamih, we hope that if you get married to end your single period, Papih and Mamih are there, seeing you say the vows of marriage, feeling her sacral release you to our daughter-in-law." There is a bitter tone heard from every utterance that comes out of the mouth of Papa Yoga and it makes Yoga feel very guilty.
" I'm sorry Yoga, Pih. Yoga does not mean to disappoint Papih and Mamih .." lirih Yoga.
" But what you're doing is really disappointing to us, Prayoga!" ketus Mama Yoga's. " You know that Mamih and Papih have betrothed you and Azahra?! Mamih and Papih have even planned your wedding next year. Now that you're married to another woman, you can imagine how disappointed Azahra is to know this fact. And how should we deal with Azahra's parents, if they find out you broke our promise to marry you and Azahra." Mama Yoga spoke with excitement.
" Man can only plan, Allah is the One who determines, Mih. We cannot oppose what God has ordained."
" It is not God who determines, but your in-laws! Who wants you to marry his son!" mama Yoga is getting upset.
" May ..." Papa Yoga stroked his wife's back, telling her to be more patient.
" Sorry, Mih. Guilty yoga, what should Yoga do to make amends Yoga, Mih, Pih?"
" Punish the woman ...!!"
" Mih ...!!" yoga and Papihnya at the same time.
" Yoga can't do that, Mih. Yoga has promised Papa Farhan to look after Natasha for life, Mih.
" Mih, what God has united, should not be separated by the hand of man. If there must be a farewell, only Allah SWT has the right to do that," said Papa Yoga full of assertiveness.
Mama Yoga got up from her seat. " Mamih disagrees anyway! I don't want to have a daughter-in-law! Mamih only wanted Azahra to be Mamih's son-in-law! Point ...!!" Mama Yoga hurried to leave her husband's study room grumbling.
" Mamih you are disappointed because he can not feel the crying haru that he should feel when you sungkem after ijab qobul," as long as Papa Yoga melts the atmosphere that was tense.
" Did Papih approve of Yoga and Natasha?" Yoga carefully asked her Papihnya.
" Well, how should the papih be? Want to disagree with the fact that you are married" replied Papa Yoga wisely. " So why don't you immediately legalize your marriage in the country?" ask Papa Yoga later.
" Tata wants to get Papih and Mamih's blessing first before we legalize our marriage to the state."
" Why think like that?? It is precisely if you quickly legalize your marriage, that your marriage is stronger." Papa Yoga explained." After this, take care of the confirmation of your marriage."
" Okay, Pih."
" When do you want to have a reception?"
Yoga stared at the shady face of his papih, really he felt very lucky to have this papih sage. " We haven't thought in that direction, Pih."
Papih Yoga nodded his head again, while rubbing his jaw.
" Is it true that you haven't had a husband and wife relationship in all this time? You are still normal, right?!' ask Papa Yoga suddenly nosy asking the thing that makes the face of Yoga instantly flushed.
