Chapter 49

"Say what's wrong?" mama Adira asked her son.

"I want to ask, Ma," the eldest replied and paused to catch his breath.

"What seriousness do you want from a woman who is invited to be married by a man?" ask Bagaskara directly without further ado.

Bagaskara also told me everything that he had talked to Rinjani this afternoon. The man also expressed his turmoil that did not understand about the seriousness demanded by Rinjani.

"You're the dumbest man I know!" screeched Mama Adira while hitting her son's shoulder.

Of course this made Bagaskara complain of pain even though not how much pain. She hoped her mother would not do that to her.

"Mama, what, hit me instead?" Bagaskara tried to protect himself from Mama Adira's successive attacks that still continue to be launched on him.

"Because you are foolish, do not understand the meaning of the word Rinjani," replied the woman who had given birth and raised Bagaskara.

"I asked Mama and Papa, to tell me what Rinjani wanted" said the first son of Adira and Bima.

"Not that mama had planned that with you, first. Invite Rinjani and her children to play in this house. Get them all closer to our family and feel comfortable here. If they feel comfortable and happy when they are with us, then you just ask for it" explained Mama Adira.

Bagaskara was flabbergasted to realize the intent of the earnestness asked Rinjani. That is, getting the blessing of both parents. 

He also forgot that he once said he would invite Rinjani and his three children to play here and introduce them to his mother and father. He cursed himself and remembered now.

'Why did I forget something important like this?' (Bagaskara)

After knowing what Rinjani wanted, Bagaskara returned to her room and was able to sleep soundly. Even he was already impatient to see Rinjani soon, tomorrow.

'Wait for me Rinjani.' (Bagaskara)

***

The next day Bagaskara was impatient to meet with Rinjani. He purposely came early in the morning not even having breakfast at home. The man wants to eat with the idol and his three heroes.

Bagaskara came to Grandpa Atmaja's house feeling happy. A handsome smile adorned his beautiful face. His footsteps felt light and swung quickly.

"Assalamualaikum, Rinjani .. 'Honey'," Bagaskara's greeting continued in his heart.

"Waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh," Rinjani replied as she opened the door after hearing the bell.

Bagaskara smiled as they exchanged glances with the idol. His heart was immediately so excited to see the beautiful woman who recently adorned her dreams at night.

A thin smile also adorned Rinjani's face to find guests in the morning who were always in the future by her three children. The man so easily stole the heart of the widow's most precious fruit and treasure.

"Rinjani, there is something important and I want to talk to you right now," Bagaskara said softly as they entered the house.

Rinjani stopped her steps, then directed her attention to this man who had a very neat appearance. Seen a blazing beam from Netra Bagaskara. I don't know why the woman now likes the look in her eyes.

Not willing to waste precious time for the woman, so Bagaskara also immediately expressed his point

"I want to take you and the whole family tonight to see my mom and dad. We'll have dinner together" Bagaskara said with a faint smile.

Rinjani was very surprised when she heard the words of the man sitting nearby. He did not expect that Bagaskara had thought about the next step in seriousness to establish a relationship in the future. 

"I have expressed my desire to ask for you to papa and mama. They feel very happy and ask me to immediately bring you and the children together" said Bagaskara again.

There was another feeling that infiltrated Rinjani's heart. The woman wants a relationship that gets the blessing of both of their families. 

"Then, kids. Have you told me about them too?"

She is self-aware that she is currently a three-child widow. Rinjani would not if, Bagaskara family would accept him, but would not accept the whereabouts of his children. Because, for him the three children of marriage with God is everything in his life.

"Mama and papa also want to get acquainted with their future grandchildren" continued Bagaskara.

"Yes, I'll tell the kids later," Rinjani replies with haru feelings, as both Bagaskara's parents want to get to know her children.

How happy the children when they know will be invited to Bagaskara's house later tonight. Even the man said he would take them for a walk to the Sea World Aquarium the next day before they entered school.

"You can just stay at Om's house, so that tomorrow we can leave the house early in the morning" said Bagaskara.

"Assyc! Brother wants .. sister wants!" yelling Attar while jumping around happily.

"Sister also wants to stay at Om Bagas' house" Aqilah said with a big smile.

"Abang with mom. Mom stays and Brother stays too. If you go home, you go home, too" Azzam said.

"Eh." Attar and Aqilah glanced at each other.

"We will also stay overnight if the mother stays," Aqilah finally said.

Rinjani smirked thinly. He couldn't have stayed at Bagaskara's house. Later it will be slander.

"You guys don't stay there. Grandpa didn't give permission!" squeak Grandpa Atmaja firmly and make a jump to the people who are at the dining table.

"Why, Cake?" ask Attar with fear.

Rinjani was very surprised when she heard her grandfather's words earlier. Though the old man often invited him to stay overnight when talking about business with his papa Bagaskara.

"There is no objection. It's for the good of all of you" replied Grandpa Atmaja.

"What, mom and dad Om Bagas, fierce?" ask Attar to Grandpa Atmaja.

***

Why did Grandpa Atmaja forbid Rinjani and her children to stay at Bagaskara's house? Will they meet Dirga? How did Rinjani and her three children react when they met Dirga there?
