CUTS
Dower...


Aisyah sat in the living room waiting for the father's return alone while the other residents of the house were asleep. The clock has shown at 12 pm but the father has not returned.


Aisyah was still faithfully waiting until half a hour the sound of her father's car entering the garage began to be heard. Aisha got up from her seat, she rushed to open the door for her father even though she knew her father had his own keys.


“Assalamualaikum, why haven't you slept?” said the father who looked tired.


“Walaikumsalam, what is the condition of the VVIP patient?”


“It was home last night at 11 p.m. His age is old and his children no longer want to install life support tools after passing the critical period. Go sleep! Tomorrow we talk about Iskandar.” Aisyah's father walked first in the room. While Aisyah looked back at the screen of her phone.


“Where is he? Why hasn't my message been answered?” muttered Aisyah then stepped her feet towards the room.


While the person Aisyah was waiting for was also in the hospital. The condition of the grandmother suddenly decreased and after receiving treatment from the doctor, his condition improved only Pure Mother did not want to go far with the grandson.


“Bapak has lost the same prestige grandson.” Gurau Rendra's. After Pure Mother's condition was declared better, the family members had returned home. Only Iskandar and Sister Julie are still accompanying there.


“Is, should you speed up the application? I really want to be present at your application. We never know when, but that time will come. Aunt wants to see Aunt's parents' happiness for the last time. Did you hear the doctor's revenge yourself? Aunty even willingly single just to keep them.”


Iskandar looked at the aunt with a different view. Maybe because this is the first time he heard the reason why his aunt has not married. Though in terms of physical and financial, the tantenya is more than enough.


Without a second thought, Iskandar immediately picked up the phone that had been in silent mode. Many messages came from Aisyah and her themes and the students.


“Assalamaicum, Ai. Sorry for just returning your message. I was in the hospital, my grandmother went back to the hospital but now it's improving. I have a request, please ask your parents. Can my family come to propose in the near future? My grandmother wanted to see me married. I was afraid I could not grant her request. Please notify me as soon as possible, assalamualaikum prospective makmum.”


There is no reply from Aisha because the future mother has fallen asleep in the dream world. And as soon as the voice of dawn reverberated, the voice of Aisyah squirming the room of her parents defeated the noise of cock crows in the morning.


As soon as the door to her parents' room opened, Aisyah immediately showed the message that Iskandar sent for her at two in the morning.


Both of his parents stared at each other in silence. “By yes, Pa, Ma. Poor Grandma, yesterday also he had said the same thing when Aisyah visited their home.” Cursed Aisha unconsciously.


Both his parents stared fixedly at the princess, “You've gone to his house?” ask the father.


“I-iya. Mas Iskandar said his family asked me to go there so yes I just follow. Their families have accepted me well. Not like my family when Mas Is came here. Already introgated continue to be given the salty again. There was no warm welcome, let alone friendly. If the Mas Is family, they are warm and friendly then they also prepare various foods just to welcome me who is still a son-in-law.” The mother smiled at her husband.


“So how, Pa? Mas Iskandar needs this answer.” Ask Aisyah back.


The father can only sigh, “Tell him to come next Saturday at 10 am so we treat them like they entertain you.” Aisyah jumped up and immediately hugged her mother.


“Still, Papa, Mama. You guys are the best.” He immediately replied to a message from Iskandar as he passed towards the room.


“Not felt yes? Finally we have to take it off as well.” Lirih the mother.


“After Aisyah, we will also lose Rendra. Papa doesn't seem ready yet, Ma.” Sahut the husband.


The sun has appeared again. Window curtains in not a little so that sunlight can penetrate the room that is being occupied by Pure Mother.


Ting…


“Mas, Papa said they will wait for the Mas family on Saturday at 10 like the Mas Is family waiting for my arrival first. We'll have lunch together.”


Dreet…


Iskandar directly replied to a message from Aisyah, “You asked for how much dowry?” the reply from Iskandar made Aisyah smile happily. Being asked that for a woman must be something WOW.


Dreet…


Iskandar directly contacted Aisyah. “Assalamualaikum, have dawn prayers, Ai?” her question was so Aisyah answered her call.


“Walaikumsalam. Already, Mas.” Lirih Aisha. In fact, he felt ashamed if he had to discuss the issue of dowry with Iskandar.


“So you asked for what dowry?” Aisyah was still silent, she was confused as to what to answer.


“If you are confused, just ask your parents. Call me if you have the answer! Assalamualaikum.”


“Walaikumsalam,”


Tutt's…


That morning, Aisyah again made a furore in her house. When her parents just came down for breakfast, Aisyah showed her phone to her father again. “This time moreover?” asked the father in a lazy tone then took Aisyah's phone and read the contents of the message.


“Mahar, Ma.” Answer the father.


The two looked back at the princess. “How much do you want to dowry? Decide for yourself, not us. Your future husband thinks that we asked for it.”


“I'm confused, Pa, Ma.”


“Just ask for one billion.” Woe to the brother who just came out of his room.


“Gak ah, Brother. I'll be mistaken for matre.”


“Then why did you ask us? We don't know either. Our dowry business leave everything the same to you.” Said the father and handed the phone back into the hands of the princess.


Ting…


“I don't know what dowry and how much. But I know that if you do love me you must have given me a dowry that describes how you feel about me.” Reply Aisyah then she again muttered, “Happy together, Mas Iskandar.”


“What do you reply to, Son?” ask the mother.


Aisyah said what she replied to her mother and her sister cursed instead, “How about she give you a set of prayer tools?”


“It's okay. I will accept it with sincerity. After that I will enjoy it too.” Aisyah did not want to be affected by the nudge of her brother.


In the hospital, Iskandar had conveyed the happy news to the grandmother and sure enough, Pure Mother seemed to get a miracle until her health was so quickly improved. “Is love dowry what for Aisyah?” mother Pure asked as they were on their way home from the hospital.


“According to his good grandmother what?” ask Iskandar again.


“If you follow our custom then the dowry is definitely gold. But if the custom of Javanese what usually. We just join.” said Kak Julie gave an opinion. Pure Mother smiled then nodded.


“Julie, later you go with Cut to buy the goods as handy. Buy a good one and it should fit Aisyah. If you can invite him all so it is definitely right when we buy.”


Finally, the days leading up to the application event, Mr. Wicaksono's house was again crowded and boisterous. Anugrah and Wulan who had moved were not left behind. Pure Mother herself contacted Anugrah to ask him to come home.


“Are you waiting for Grandma to die and come back here? Grandma wait for you at home, don't forget to bring your wife! Wulan, you also came home, Grandma did not accept any excuse!”


Tuttts…


Iskandar looked at his parents who were smiling little see Anugrah did not dare to refute the orders of the grandmother. While in his room, Anugrah had just finished helping Wulan take a bath.


“Do you want to go home?” Wulan nodded.


“What do we bring? Usually a sister will give a gift when her brother gets married.” Ask Wulan.


Anugrah seemed to think, “I don't know about it.”


“I've seen while at a neighbor's house but from older sister to younger sister. But if this I'm also confused.” Wulan seemed to think.


“What do we love when they get married?”


“Alright, let's get ready. We leave after Magrib. What clothes do you want to wear?”


“Let me take it myself! Just help me get close to the closet.” Wulan's condition has developed so rapidly that when in the house he does not need a wheelchair anymore. His condition was indeed improved but the process for his recovery also made the distance between the two closer physically.


Anugrah must pay Wulan when inside the house. The doctor advised Wulan to start learning to walk inside the house with the help of Anugrah. As at this time, Wulan's hand was on Anugrah's shoulder while Anugrah's hand had to embrace Wulan's waist. Intimate closeness between the two has not been able to change their feelings to be open to each other about what is in the heart. Wulan slightly lowered her head to reach the interior and instantly both of them almost fell when Anugrah was less alert to support Wulan's body.


Wulan's lips were right on Anugrah's cheeks when they both looked forward and fortunately did not fall into the closet. Strange lights reappear in each one. “Already, let me take it. No need to be ashamed, I have often seen even wash it.”


There was no answer from Wulan, all this time they did make physical contact but there was no kissing scene like that. This was something embarrassing for Wulan because of her lips that landed on Anugrah's cheek.


“Do not think more! It was just an accident.” Wulan flat.


“Ck, I didn't expect it either.”
