LAMHA AND MR. EL
Request

After that night, after expressing her intentions to Mr. El, the next day Lamha again faced Lady Grace to talk about her resignation as a milk mother and babysitter A. Actually Lamha is very heavy parting with baby A who has been considered like her own son, however, not without reason Lamha must take this decision, he said, Lamha wanted to devote her life to taking care of her dear mother who is now often sickly, and her future husband did not mind if they were married they lived in Lamha's parents' house, because the future husband Lamha himself works as a teacher who teaches in one of the pesantren near Lamha's house. After finishing tidying her clothes in the bag, Lamha went to meet Madame Grace who was sitting in the back garden.

"Madamma, may I sit down" asked Lamha who immediately disperse the reverie of Lady Grace.

"May, let's sit here" said Madame Grace patting the spot next to her. And then Lamha sat down next to Lady Grace.

"Are you here to ask about your resignation?" ask Lady Grace who already knows the meaning of Lamha's arrival.

"Yes, madam" Lamha replied. Lady Grace took a deep breath, then began to speak her heart.

"Since you expressed your wish that night, I immediately looked for your successor, but I don't think there is anyone like you Lamha. Baby A is very dependent on you. Tell me what will keep you here?" ask Miss Grace. Of course Lamha was confused to answer that question.

"You want to be my daughter-in-law?"

Deg

"My-me..." Lamha was shocked to hear Grace's request and she didn't know what to answer.

"You've just been proposed, right? and not yet given an answer? that's a sign, El can still marry you before the yellow janur curved" said Madam Grace who made Lamha added a warning.

"But madam..." Lamha did not continue her words when Grace's mistress suddenly burst into tears.

"My granddaughter needs you so much, I don't know what happens to my granddaughter if you leave her" Grace said, begging Lamha to be pityed. Indeed, if Lamha could not want all this, but Lamha also wanted to be devoted to her mother.

"I'm sorry ma'am, I can't. I am sure, baby A will definitely get a nanny or even a new mother who will love him sincerely" Lamha said.

"Mrs don't have to worry, God will definitely make things easier" he continued. Lady Grace could not help but hold back her tears and took Lamha into her arms.

"Thank you for taking care of and loving my granddaughter all this time" said Madam Grace.

"Same mistress" Lamha replied as she returned Grace's embrace and gently stroked the woman's back who was like her mother. And all that can not be separated from the vision of someone who has heard their chatter since.

*********

"Lamha, there's something I want to talk to you about" El said with a cold look.

"Yes, what's wrong, sir?" ask Lamha. El closed the door of the room and quickly locked it, causing Lamha to panic.

"Don't worry, I just want to talk for a while, I won't do anything. After all, you're not my type" he said spicyly.

"But still, sir, women and men who are not makhrom should not be in the same room. Later can arise slander" Lamha replied while continuing to subordinate his gaze.

"That's it, I don't want to argue. I'll just talk for a while" he said annoyed. Then after that Mr. El started a conversation.8

"Marry me Lamha, be a mother to baby A, but don't expect love from me, because until now I will never be able to love you. I married you only because baby A needs you as a mother" said Mr. El. Somehow El was nervous when he said it, but he was very smart to cover his nervousness in front of Lamha. But on the contrary, Lamha actually felt humbled and squeezed in his heart when he heard the unusual proposal.

"Sorry sir, I can't" Lamha replied steadily.

"I'll give you whatever you want, including financing your mother's treatment and bringing your family to the mansion so you can get closer to them. Whatever I will fulfill but not with my heart. Until whenever I won't give it." said El.

"Marriage is not a deal that can be negotiated and played with. When you get married, it means you promise God. And I will not marry a man who is playing with marriage" Lamha said firmly.

"I beg you, at least for baby A, my son needs you." now Mr. El lowered his ego and begged a woman to marry him. Something he never did to a woman including his late wife Prisca.

"I..." Lamha was confused by herself. He twirled his hands together because he was nervous and wrong.

"I will pray Istikhoroh first to ask God for guidance" Lamha replied. El smiled faintly at Lamha's reply.

"Thank you for considering" replied Mr. El.

"I'm sorry then" he continued. And after that Mr. El came out of that room.
