Arkana was still pensive on the balcony of her room, her gaze sweeping across the sky full of stars tonight. After he told his parents everything, there was a sense of relief and also a feeling of guilt. As a child she also had to think about her feelings, but Arkana also deserved happiness.
Again it occurred to him the words of Didi Langit, there is no harm in bringing Anwa and Mama closer personally. So far Anwa only dared to send her favorite cuisine of the mother is also not necessarily able to melt the heart of the woman who has given birth to it.
Arkana reached into her phone in her pants pocket, and the phone vibrated. Some incoming messages were still reluctant to reply, including a message from Anwa. Though Anwa ordered to preach it upon arrival at home.
Arkana pressed Anwa's name on her phone, before long the connecting tone was connected.
"Yes, Ar."
"Well you asleep?"
"Belom, wait for you to chat, but long."
"What are you again?"
"Watch drakor."
Arkana was silent for a moment.
"Ar... How was it?"
"Yes that's it."
"What's how?"
"Mama's just diem, Wa," Arkana said and sighed, telling Anwa everything about what happened a few hours ago.
"You Om Riza and Didi don't exist, maybe we're still teetering on my mom's blessing, but with papa saying he's blessing us, I can say you're going to do the same."
"Well...."
"Yes, Ar."
"Didi asked us to take a personal approach, between you and mama... You want?"
"We try yes, there is no harm in trying, even though your mother indirectly gave her blessing, but I also can not if your mother does not wholeheartedly accept me."
"Yes, I know."
Then they also fell silent.
"That...."
"Yes, Wa."
"Sleep yes," she said.
Arkana grinning. "Sleep."
"That...."
"Yes, Wa... Why? can't sleep if there's no me."
Anwa chuckles. "Just say... I love you, Ar."
Arkana smiled. "I love you too, Wa."
A virtual good-night kiss was heard on the phones of the lovers.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
One week later, Anwa and Arkana have not had time to carry out their mission. Not to mention Arkana who went back and forth Bandung to take care of his business there.
Until one afternoon, Arkana called Anwa asking for help to accompany Mama Cha Cha doing a general check-up at one of the hospitals.
"I'm afraid I won't go after Wa, if you wait for me later," Arkana said across the street. "Lagian papa also has not arrived at the airport at that hour, Wa."
"Okay," Anwa replied that she could have refused to accompany her mother Arkana, but seeing that she would be alone waiting at the hospital inevitably, Anwa had to accompany her.
"Tomorrow to pick up the driver, yes" Arkana said again.
"No need, I wait for mama in the hospital, let's not go back and forth, later you chat me yes data let all mama I register."
"Okay, be careful."
Perhaps it was time for Anwa to do this on her own, taking the heart of her future mother-in-law. Encourage yourself, that's what he's doing now.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Until the day he was waiting for came, Anwa cleaned up her work that afternoon. Hurry down from his office building, riding on-line motorcycle taxi he ordered earlier. As much as possible he must arrive first in order to register the registration of patient data.
Five minutes before the arrival of her lover's mother, Anwa had already done her duty. Engraving a smile as he looked at the beautiful old woman. Although he did not get a reply, Anwa tried to respect him.
Sitting side by side in the waiting room chair, feelings and awkward circumstances enveloped the two people who were like they did not know each other.
"Mom want me to get some water?" ask Anwa. And the woman was still silent.
Anwa smiled faintly, it felt like a rejection was indeed painful.
"Or do you want me to get a snack? our queue is still long, I'm afraid I'm hungry." Anwa raised her eyebrows waiting for an answer but still her lover's mother was silent.
"Mother, I stay a while no papa yes, I have to find something to eat, fear my stomach acid rises," he said again.
After a few minutes, Anwa again sat next to Mama Cha Cha with two mineral water, two sponge, two risoles, and two chocolate biscuits.
Anwa believes her future father-in-law is also hungry, just maybe prestige to answer.
"Mother if you want to take it, enough to fill our stomachs, the queue is still fifteen more people," said Anwa. "I guess with me re-registering again, the queue number will change if we come early, it turns out the same." Anwa. "Arkana may be another half hour until Bu, the trip from Bandung is quite jammed he said."
Mama-in-law was still silent but occasionally glanced at Anwa who casually ate a risoles filled with smoked meat whose fragrance was so gushing on Mama Cha Cha's nose that her stomach was lured.
"Can I have one?" said Mama Cha Cha finally let out his golden voice which was silent earlier.
"Oh, can ma'am, here... Which one do you want?" Anwa stuttered so much that she opened some plastic containing the snack.
Mama Cha Cha takes one piece of chocolate sponge, and sips the mineral water that Anwa gave her. They enjoyed the food in silence. The entry queue number is already at number fourteen which means after this they will enter.
"Oh, thank goodness it hasn't come in yet, has it?" Arkana came with breaths.
"Not yet" answered the mother, cleaning her hands with a tissue.
"After this we go in" explained Anwa. "Nothing's wrong?"
"Yes, I ran away from the parking lot, afraid Mama's gone inside."
"Kalo Mama went inside there is Anwa here, Ar," replied Mama Cha Cha followed by the eyes of Anwa and Arkana who looked at each other.
Yes, they were surprised by the words of Mama Cha Cha who seemed ordinary in pronunciation but really meant something to them. Anwa and Arkana believe that slowly the mother opens her heart to their relationship.
"Oh, yes Arkan did not think, Ma, there is Anwa," repeated Arkana.
Soon after the name was called, Arkana accompanied the mother to check her health in the room, while Anwa was still waiting there.
It didn't take long, the child and mother were out of the doctor's office.
"Ma, don't stress so his blood pressure doesn't rise" Arkana said. Then carrying her mother's bag, they walked side by side, while Anwa followed behind.
"Ma," said Arkana, "Arkan nganterin Anwa home yes, Mama returned with the driver did not papa right?"
"Mama Belom wants to go home, Mama laper, we eat first... Mama again wants seafood in Kelapa Gading," said Cha Cha.
Anwa and Arkana looked at each other again.
"It's so, I say go home first Ma'am," said Anwa pleading for resignation.
"I want to invite you to eat, why so we leave home," said Mama Cha Cha who walked first.
The pair of lovers looked at each other again, then simultaneously shrugged each other's shoulders.
"Ar, come on. You follow Mama from behind yeah, Anwa come with my car."
"Eh... " Arkana could no longer say what, while Anwa's index finger was already stuck to her lips signalling that she should just follow the beautiful old woman's wishes.
