Ask for Restu

Today I went to my father's house and asked him for his blessing. In any case, I should still go to Dad, because Dad is my guardian.

"What did Dad say, brother?" ask Mom to me.

"Dad said, if Aura feels right, I'll approve" I replied.

"Then, you want to come here on the 5th?" ask Mom again.

"Yes, Mom." I replied. "Dad also said that he would be Aura's guardian when Ijab Qobul." I said.

"Good, it should be" said Mother.

Hopefully this time Dad will not go away like when Kak Mea married first.

At Rizky's house.

After waiting for so long, I finally reached this point. The love I have been seeking will soon be my wife.

I can't wait to say this to Ummi. In the past, when Ummi and Abi were about to match me, I told her that I would seek my own love. And now that I have found it, he is Asyifahani Aura.

"Ummi.." I said after I sat down next to Ummi.

"Yes, when will Rizky come home, son?" ask Ummi.

"Just now, Mi. Mi, there's something Rizky wants to tell Ummi." I started the conversation seriously.

"What is that? Just say it." pinta Ummi.

"Rizky wants to get married, Mi." I said shyly. Even though I am currently talking to my own mother, I still feel ashamed when talking about marriage.

"Ma shay Allah. Now you have the intention to get married. Ummi was happy to hear it." said Ummi full of happiness.

"Yes, Mi."

"Married to whom? When would you like to be brought here to meet Ummi and Abi?" ask Ummi.

"This is God married to someone Rizky had long liked, Mi. Rizky won't bring her here, we'll go straight to her house to propose, Mi." I replied at length.

"Huh? Directly apply?" ummi asked a little surprised and looked at me deeply.

From the look in Ummi's eyes I can conclude that Ummi has so many questions.

"Yes, Mi. He and his mother also agreed that Rizky came to propose there with both parents and family." I replied as casually as possible to reduce Ummi's shock.

"But Ummi does not know the person yet, are you sure you want to apply directly?" ask Ummy again. Maybe Ummi was really shocked and did not feel satisfied with my request which was too sudden for him.

"Mi, listen to Rizky carefully" I said as gently as I could while gently grasping both hands of Ummi. "Rizky has known him for a long time, since Rizky was fifteen years old. Even last week Rizky and Kak Agatha had met him in person in the village. Rizky was sure, once Ummi met him, Ummi would immediately like it." I continued trying to explain to Ummi so that Ummi would understand my wishes.

"But Ummi wanted to know why, why Rizky did not introduce him to Ummi and Abi first before we went there to propose to him" said Ummi.

"That's because she only lives alone with her mother. Anyway the trip from his house here takes about 4 hours, Mi." I explained.

"alright. If indeed Ummi will immediately like it when he sees it, Ummi agrees, Ummi blesses the relationship between the two of you" said Ummi softly.

"Alhamdulillah. Thank you, Mi." I said while kissing the back of Ummi's hand. "Actually Rizky had already mentioned about him before, Mi. But maybe Ummi forgot." I said.

"Oh yeah, when?" ask Ummi.

"Rizky once said that Rizky would seek Rizky's own love. Ummi still remember not?"

"Yes, still." replied Ummi.

"The woman we're going to visit is the love Rizky's been looking for a long time" I told Ummi.

"Owh, so. What's name?" ask Ummi.

"His name is Aura, Mi. Asyifahani Aura his full name." I replied.

"What a beautiful name" Ummi said and smiled at me. "When are we going to visit there?" ask Ummy again.

"Yes, God. Only two weeks left before the fifth date." said Ummi a little surprised.

"Hehehe, sorry, Mi." I said with a cry.

"Hurrmmm... Too sudden. But it's okay. Later after Abi came home from work, we will talk again with Abi." said Ummi.

"Okay, Mi." I replied.

Thank God Ummi wants to understand and obey my wishes. It was already impatient to want to immediately bring Aura to stay in this house with me.

"After meeting him, how did your brother respond?" ask Mother.

"Sir Agatha immediately liked it, Mi. Brother said, Aura is beautiful, meek and very polite." I replied.

"Ma shaa Allah, Ummi so can't wait to meet the girl named Aura immediately" said Ummi with a sweet smile to me.

I also returned Ummi's smile.

"Oh yeah. Ummi stay first, yeah. Ummi wants to get ready to go to study." said Ummi then moved from his seat.

"Yes, Mi. Answer's short.

After that I went to my room located at the top to change my clothes. After coming home from work, I haven't changed my clothes. Because I was talking to Ummi.

After I finished cleaning and wearing casual clothes, I took the initiative to call Kak Agatha.

Ttuutt's... Ttuutt's... Ttuutt's... Ttuutt's... Connected calls.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat. What's up, Ky?" brother Agatha said after he answered my call.

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Brother, Rizky has spoken to Ummi about Aura." I replied.

"Well, then how did Ummi respond?" ask Brother Agatha.

"At first Ummi hesitated to directly propose to Aura before meeting her first. But after Rizky gave an explanation, Ummi finally wanted to understand and agreed to propose to Aura next month." I replied at length.

"Alhamdulillah, then how does Abi respond?" ask Agatha again.

"Rizky hasn't spoken to Abi, sister. In shay Allah tonight if Abi has come home from work." I replied.

"Owh, so. Just calm down, don't worry. I'm sure Abi would agree too. Just khusnudzon, yes." said Brother Agatha assured me.

"Okay, brother." I replied.

"Yes, Brother hang up, yeah. Bella is fussy" he said.

"Yes, Brother. Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumussalam" said Kak Agatha and immediately ended the call.

It does not feel like you have entered the Maghrib prayer time. Ummi has returned from school.

Me and Ummi perform maghrib prayers in congregation in prayer room.

Usually Abi will go home around 08:30PM, but sometimes also go home at 09:00PM if the road is jammed.

After Abi got home, I immediately expressed my intentions. Not many questions like Ummi, Abi immediately agreed to my wishes.

Alhamdulillahot. Aura, Abang will immediately justify you. After that, we will live and live together. Happily ever after, trust me.
