Umi kept thinking about Asep's words. He himself actually wants to talk about this problem to someone to ask for advice.
Umi wanted to tell Humaira. Unfortunately, his brother will only be back in 3 days. And if you have to talk over a long distance connection, it will certainly cost the phone a lot.
Umi decided to wait for Humaira to come back and tell the woman the problem. While waiting for Humaira's return, Umi often avoids Asep if he sees the man.
Rumors of a conjecture also emerged if Umi was angry with Asep. I don't know who started until the gossip continued to grow further and further from the truth.
It was heard by Tomy, he called Umi and spoke in the living room. Several other workers passed by and some were not far from the room. Of course they were very curious why Tomy called Umi as if he wanted to do an introration.
"Sorry Umi, I invite you to talk in an open space like"
Said Tomy who sat leaning on the sofa opposite Umi.
"I don't have a problem, sir, but what's wrong?"
Tanya Umi, who looked nervous and always bowed down did not dare to look at Tomy because of her disdain.
"Is there nothing you want to tell me Umi? Lately I've heard something and I want to know from you"
"What do you hear?"
"You rejected Asep who was going to propose to you. And you stayed away from her because you hated her is that right?"
"Well, isn't that right, sir?!"
Umi looked up at Tomy.
"May I know what's really going on?"
"I actually wanted to tell someone, I wanted to wait for Humaira. But it seems the rumors are getting worse. Asep did propose to me, but I asked for time to answer. And regarding avoiding Asep, I do not hate him, but I am not ready if Asep asks for an answer when we meet"
Umi was back down. He was ashamed of this problem that was finally told to Tomy.
"Hmm, so it seems. Can I know your reason?"
"The cousin was young from me, I was afraid he was just playing me"
"Did Umi have any interest in Asep?"
"Yes? That's me. emm. As an honest and diligent young man I also liked Asep who had such a nature"
"Good, at least slowly you can cultivate your feelings if always showered with genuine affection and attention. I think Asep is a good boy. His view is quite broad, I'm sure he's capable of being a good priest"
"Really sir?"
Tomy's speech was like giving a bright spot to Umi until the woman dared to lift her face looking at Tomy back.
For Umi who has not known Asep for long, of course, he could not judge how the man. But the sentence said by Tomy gave Umi's trust in Asep, and he believed that Tomy would not misjudge people.
"I'm waiting for good news from you guys, the issue of wedding costs later do not think about"
"Oh, all right sir. I'll think about it carefully. Then I want to continue my work"
"Yes please"
Umi was saying goodbye and passed leaving Tomy who was still sitting casually in the room.
Even though Humaira and Tomy never told Umi to work for them, the woman felt she could not just stay in the house without doing anything. He also consecrated his daily upbringing of Gibran.
In Umi's hands, Tomy and Humaira believe their son is in foster care in the right hands. Umi, who is affectionate, takes care of Gibran like her own son.
"I've done your wish, dear"
"Thank God, thank you for being Umi's chat partner. I'm sure Umi must be confused about what decision to make. And wonder, the worker in the mas house was still as young as his neighbor's gibahin at that house"
"Hehehe, his name is also human. As long as they do not do harm, all can still be understood"
"Then about what Umi mas's decision, I want Umi to have a mas family. Let someone look after her in old age, and pray for her when she is gone"
"Alhamdulillah mas, there has been progress on his recovery. Aunty's disease is not severe actually if you get the right treatment"
"Thank God, I'm glad to hear that. That's because the economic life of the aunt's family is not very supportive dear. Later slowly we increase the level of his life yes"
"Thank you, I'm the best husband"
"Your family is my family, too, dear. What else you don't have much family. I'll try to prosper those closest to me"
"I love you mas"
"I too, baby, come home quickly. I've always missed you"
"Hehehe... Yes mas. Then I'll hang up the phone. Looks like aunt's awake"
"Yes, take care of your health, baby"
"Yes, and mas too. Assalamualaikum..."
"Girishal"
"Clues"
The call ended.
*****
Three days later, Umi meets with Asep to give an answer to Asep's proposal.
Their meeting in the back garden was witnessed by several pairs of eyes even though they were hiding their whereabouts.
Umi looked at Asep deeply to make the man feel awkward even though his heart was pounding.
"I've been thinking this through and I've decided to...."
Umi's sentence hanging makes Asep nervous to hard to swallow his saliva. The man seemed to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief out of fear for the answer Umi would give him.
"Yes"
"Yes?"
Asep was silent with one word "Yes" uttered by Umi.
Umi sighed because Asep looked confused by her answer. Finally Umi uses body language by nodding her head.
Asep's face blushed, his eyes rounded instantly as if ready to leave his eyelids.
"THANK YOU, YEAAAAA....!!!"
Asep's shout made Umi shocked as well as embarrassed. Not only Umi, friends who work at home also cheered and laughed happy to see the happiness of Asep.
"Wahh, congratulations to Umiii"
Said Kiki the first person who immediately approached Umi and congratulated Umi.
Bi Imah and several other workers also sprung from their hiding places and flocked to congratulate Asep and Umi.
And that day the back garden became crowded by the workers in the house who came together to feel the happiness of Asep and Umi.
"What's this about? Why isn't everyone at work?! I'm reporting the same bang Tomy"
Said Dika while folding his hands in front of the chest surprised those who were smiling happily to fade the joy on their faces.
