Love Sholeha
Between shame and anger

POV Sholeh before leaving

At about half-five, Sholeh decided to pick up her umpire ,

after seeing her mother's slightly unhealthy condition. It is usually the Caucasian who continue to accompany his mother if he goes to the city long enough or leave for the night as it is now.

Actually he was very reluctant to go to the city that day, according to him his job is not how important he can postpone until tomorrow but mom forced, he said, his mother said do not delay your interests want a healthy mother, he said at that time.

Even Sholeh knew that not leaving that afternoon would not derail his business at all.

As much as possible explain to his mother if he can delay, but his mother who is too stubborn and forced to be left behind.

Sholeh did not expect that afternoon Sholeha came with her mother.

Looks like they deliberately came to visit the mother, seen that Fatma also brought some fruit in a frizzy bag. It is possible that Ayu told him, because Sholeh had been to Rizal's house for a moment to tell if he delayed his departure to the city today. The plan they will go together, but undo as well as Rizal there are other needs tomorrow.

Sholeh undoes his intention to leave the house, he welcomes the two special guests for a moment. This is the second time Sholeh has invited Sholeha into his house. Today he looks calmer and fresh-faced, I don't know he's so different this time, ah maybe because it's more prepared unlike yesterday who seemed sudden. He also wore a tidier outfit from the first day he came to this house. Sholeh smiled to greet his future wife. Even though Sholeha's face looks confused.

What's he thinking? sholeh said in his heart.

Surely Ms. Fatma immediately asked the situation of the mother, no longer even want to sit and continue to go into the house looking for the whereabouts of the mother.

Sholeh felt natural, because it was like usual Fatma ma'am who had very often come to visit mother.

Sholeh often thought that Fatma was his mother's sister.

Both are very familiar what else after the father died, Fatma very often came to visit his mother even if only briefly.

And just look, his mother came out of the room, when she heard the voice of Fatma.

He said he wanted to sleep with Sholeh.

Then, after Sholeha offered to help, Sholeh hesitated a little because she also knew that Sholeha must be busy, considering that Kindergarten will take the exam tomorrow morning. He was so quick to offer help. Sholeh relented, she knew Sholeha was eager to help, maybe she wanted more time with her mother.

Seeing the silent Sholeha, Sholeh invited her to speak for a while. Actually Sholeh just want to say if the mother often tells a lot of things before going to bed, Sholeh wants Sholeha not to care too much about it. Sholeh even wanted to offer her room if she was uncomfortable sleeping with her mother.

But Sholeha immediately cut off his words quickly, and agreed as she had always thought about him. Maybe he felt like he didn't believe her.

Sholeh no longer need to talk about many things or later there will be another misunderstanding in Sholeha's mind.

Sholeh stood for a long time listening to two mothers who were chatting with each other somehow the direction of the conversation and the point of the problem, fortunately Sholeha knew with her situation a little bored waiting.

He was good at reprimanding the two adult women without touching her, he was also the one who was too reliable to mediate when the two were a bit of a fight even though they were only joking.

Sholeh can see how to behave between the two, only Sholeh knows that Sholeha also misbehaved with the words of her mother who discussed the grandchild in front of her. Sholeh just smiled at the funny behavior of his future wife.

Sholeha was also much advised by his mother even Sholeh could see Sholeha put on her pouting face.

Ms. Fatma even advised not to wake up bad luck to her own daughter.

Sholeh only held back his laughter so as not to offend Sholeha. Sholeh intended to deliver Fatma's mother and all the permits to Sulaiman, he thought all of you were using the car so there was no need to stop by.

Before leaving, Sholeh again asked his mother for permission in the room. He was still a little worried.

" Are you sure Sholeh's dad's staying?"

" It's been there, I'm very anxious to be alone with Sholeha, I'll tell her many things" she smiled.

" Remember Mom, Sholeh don't want to be cheated on!" Sholeh threatened with a slightly sulking tone.

" You are indeed a lot of ugly, just let the prospective mother-in-law know from now on "

Sholeh just shook his little head, he kissed his mother's hand and immediately left.

Leaving Sholeha still daydreaming in the courtyard of the house, Sholeh accidentally rang her horn, looking slightly surprised Sholeha and suddenly smiling at her.

With the window glass that had not been all covered Sholeh could clearly return Sholeha's smile. Sholeha is very funny according to him.

Both in the car with Fatma's mom, Sholeh tried to melt the atmosphere.

If you sit together with Mr. Sulaiman, Sholeh must have been accustomed and will not be tense like this.

If most people are afraid of the prospective father-in-law but different from Sholeh who is more afraid of the mother-in-law. In addition to the attitude of Fatma who seemed tough a little fierce, she also rarely smiled. Sholeh was a little confused to act in front of him.

Not long after, Fatma opened the conversation first. Starting by taking a deep breath Fatma changed her sitting position more upright.

" Son Sholeh, I'm sorry if Inu and I have much trouble for you, what else is our request that is not easy for Nak Sholeh ." So deeply, he conveyed his apology.

" Ndak like that, Mom, Sholeh himself is also willing to do it. Don't think too much of a no-no, me and Sholeha are both willing to live it."

Until now both Sholeha's parents always thought that they had forced themselves to accept Sholeha. Every time they meet each other there is always an apology from both of them.

"Sholeha has not even solved her problems with Arman, maybe Sholeha will never say anything to Nak Sholeh, but I believe that Sholeha can be devoted to her husband in the future, mother herself who will teach and guide him yes "

Seemed his face was full of earnestness, even Sholeh was confused as to how to answer it.

The heavy talk had to stop because their destination had arrived, Fatma no longer paid attention to what Sholeh said. He immediately went down and intending to directly ask Sholeh to leave, he assumed Sholeh was in a hurry. Sholeh refused, so he went down and met Sulaiman as he had promised Sholeha.

Fatma's mother did not even allow her husband to take Sholeh for a long chat, she warned him if Sholeh could not linger. With the nature of Fatma ma'am who so dominates the two men who intend to sit and relax so undo his intentions. After praying magrib Sholeh directly drove his car out to the city.

Because Sholeh wants to finish his job quickly he deliberately came early he will stay overnight and the next morning he met his friends and business partners.

Although he only saw a few materials he also did a variety of quality research and materials for which he marketed, then for the manufacture of his own home.

Actually Sholeh will be very helpful if there is Rizal, but he suddenly has a need tomorrow morning.

With a distance of three hours from the house Sholeh has arrived at an inn close to where he will choose building materials. And there was one other promise that he would fulfill with his old friend.

About half ten nights Sholeh had rested in his rental room.

He thought about contacting Sholeha to ask about her mother. With doubt he finally sent one of his first messages.

If she calls Sholeha, she's afraid she'll interrupt. Not waiting long he got such a short and clear reply. Sholeh no longer asked much, he decided not to contact Sholeha again.

Sholeh still observes Sholeha's name in her mobile chat room, no more replies. He put down his phone to prepare for sleep, but he got a call from a friend and business partner.

" Leh, I'm sorry if I cancel our appointment, my wife's relatives are dead, we can arrange an appointment again if you will still work on it with me" he explained from across the phone.

Sholeh decided to keep waiting for free time from his friend, he did not want to rush to find a replacement for the supplier of building materials store. Although already in town, the night is also getting late if he has to go home again. Sholeh decided to return home in the morning before dawn.

And actually Sholeh is still waiting for news from someone he will meet tomorrow morning if he is willing. Although the possibility of meeting him is small, Sholeh still waits if he can meet him even for a moment.

He fell asleep for a while and then woke up hearing his phone ring. Just a message notification, as soon as he reads it.

Sholeh's face sparkled but a second later he looked disappointed.

It is certain that this promise is also cancelled. Sholeh just took a deep breath and said softly,

"And I really wish we could meet Dek"

There is one thing that Sholeh has not resolved regarding the affairs of his heart, in fact he himself is not sure he can finish or will continue to save as a hope from his past. It's too hard to end something that he started well. He just did not dare to admit defeat from his fate that was all.

The journey he took with hope must come home with disappointment. Before dawn Sholeh drove home, he even only slept for only a few hours in his rental room.

If he had not obeyed the orders of his mother, he might not have been so disappointed. It's probably true that his mother just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Sholeh for longer.

Sometimes Sholeh is confused to see the attitude of his mother who really likes the girl.

Then the streets that are still so quiet accelerate Sholeh in driving.

At six o'clock in the morning he was home. With one spare key he carried, he entered without knocking on the door. He knew his mother must be in the kitchen by now, he immediately met his mother.

From his room there was a happy laugh from the kitchen, Sholeh was made to wonder what they were talking about.

" Mas Sholeh Cengeng ya Bu"

That's Sholeha's voice, she laughs loosely and sounds a little funny in Sholeh's ear. The two who were cool at cooking did not realize Sholeh who was already sitting at the dining table was watching the two.

When Sholeh made a sound, the laughter suddenly disappeared somewhere?

Sholeha and Bu Nur spontaneously turned to Sholeh, Nur's mother who immediately approached her son with a happy face. And Sholeha looks a little nervous and goes back to work without a sound. Sholeh did not take his eyes off Sholeha in the least, he was very curious why it had changed at once now. He wanted to tease or ask because of his laughter, but he did not reach the heart, even he said a little taut to Sholeh. He must be bad.

"Sholeha, are you going home now?"

He just nodded

" I'm taking ya?"

"This is already brightly lit Mas, Leha can go home alone, Mas don't have to underestimate Sholeha like this dong, I brought my own motorbike and also mas just came home driving your own car tired Mas, I'm not happy, Sholeha didn't want to bother" She seemed to have a long nag and it seemed she was still angry about Sholeh driving her home that night. This time he was just embarrassed as it seemed, Sholeh thought.

"It's up to you"

He did not touch Sholeh anymore, he faced Nur's mother and said goodbye. Seen once he was sulking even Sholeha not a bit turned to Sholeh even though just saying goodbye.

" Mom thank you for everything, Sholeha must go home, healthy yes"

" Mom also thank you Leha, do not be bored with the same mother ya nduk"

They even hugged each other.

He ignored me? Sholeh.

Sholeha really did not reprimand him from earlier, Sholeh was more and more astonished by the attitude of the woman. Is he really angry or ashamed ?

After that Sholeh plans to continue his sleep delayed stepping yes to the room. A calm atmosphere holds a million wishes and hopes.

The door that opened slightly earlier, Sholeh was sure that there was someone who had just entered before he came earlier. Sholeh just smiled, he was slightly comforted after seeing Sholeha's face earlier. After cleaning himself and changing his clothes he intends to sleep for a while.
