Not Love When Not Wholehearted

Athar slowly entered into the house of his parents, actually Athar already has his own home from the results of his hard work, a simple house that is purchased from the results of saving from the time of college first, actually Athar has his own home, although not as luxurious as the home of his parents, but Athar is proud because as a boy Athar did not want to stand by and ask for rations to both parents. Although he already has his own house, but every Saturday and Sunday Athar must go home to his parents, it is all Athar did as one of the filial devotion to his mother and father, he said, and of course so that Sunday morning can worship together with both parents.

"Athar.." His mother's voice made Athar a little steeped in surprise

"Why did you just get home, son?" Mama Vina approached her youngest son who is now getting older and older, even Athar's peers almost all are married and have children

"Mama..." Athar smiled clumsily as his mother now stood right in front of him

"Not sleeping ma?" coherent

"So long ago was waiting for you, why did the night just arrive home?" ask Mama Vina full of questions

"Athar has a need along with old friend Athar ma" replied Athar lying, when what actually happened was that Athar circled around the city using his car aimlessly just to avoid Sherin

"By the afternoon Sherin came to visit, even brought her favorite cake"

"really?" ask Athar to be surprised

"Sherin is a very nice girl, sweet, also polite, even she is a profession with you" Mama Vina stopped her remark, and glanced at her youngest son

"Mama would agree that Sherin would be your daughter-in-law" he added

The words of his mother made Athar exhale heavily, this was indeed a chat that made Athar very uncomfortable.

"You've known each other for a long time, aren't you interested in marrying Sherin, son?" mama Vina's voice this time was filled with hope

"Ma.." answered Athar listlessly.

"Ma, all this time Athar only considers Sherin as a friend, only a friend not to be made a companion" added Athar

"But your age is more than enough to get married and give your mother a grandchild, look at your sister, Athira, she already has a cute pair of children, don't you want to be like your sister? building a happy home?" mama Vina began to despair.

So far Mama Vina and Papa Zanaka have never arranged for his children to marry whom, whatever their children choose while it is in goodness must always be supported, as well as the matter of marriage, although their child's soul mate is ordinary, both parents never mind, the most important thing is the happiness of their sons and daughters.

"Your mother is Athar, you are mature and deserving of marriage, your job is fixed, the house you already have, then what are you waiting for?" this time Papa Zanaka's voice chimed in on the mother and child's conversation

"Married Athar, my father and mother are old, our last wish is to see you get married and have a happy family" Papa Zanaka now sits next to his youngest son, even giving a pat on Athar's shoulder

"Whatever woman you choose, we won't turn her down, as long as she can make you happy we'll be supportive. Isn't it pa?" timpal Mama Vina

"True son, we don't need women from rich families, all we need is a woman who can make our son happy, and of course love our whole family" Papa Zanaka added

"Our family doesn't need any connection" Papa Zanaka widened a smile on his lips

"But Athar has not met a suitable pa, ma"

"Doctor Sherin, she's a nice, polite, affectionate girl to our family. Didn't you put your heart on her at all?" ask Papa Zanaka full of investigation

"Pa, Athar only considers Sherin a friend, and nothing more. Athar hopes that my mom and dad will understand" Athar sees his parents in turn

Papa Zanaka and mama Vina compact sigh long, his son's answer is always the same unchanged when discussing about marriage.

"But you don't intend to be single for the rest of your life, do you?"

"Of course not pa. Athar also wants to get married, but with the right woman, and at this time Athar has not found the right one"

For the umpteenth time papa Zanaka and Mama Vina again let out a long sigh, her attempt to persuade her youngest son was very sulih, even Athira had also intervened to help introduce Athar to the younger brother of his friends, but it was a pity that Athar was not interested even in them. Not wanting to chat longer and more complicated, Athar decided to immediately say goodbye to his parents to enter his room.

"It was so tired" Athar slammed his body on the mattress shortly after cleaning himself and changing clothes

Both eyes closed Athar, all his conversations with his parents tingling filled his head, all this time Athar can only trouble mama, papa, and his brother, has not had any achievements that can be proud of, he said, never even happy his parents even so far his parents never asked for anything from him. But this time? a simple request for the first time, but unfortunately it is very difficult to accept.

"Do I have to start learning to open my heart to Sherin? after all Sherin is also a good girl" Athar told himself.

If indeed marrying Sherin could make her mother happy, Athar would try to open her heart to Sherin, and give the woman a chance to change her status from a coworker to a life companion. The problem worked or did not let time answer.

"Maybe from tomorrow I have to be a little bit more sweet towards Sherin" Athar again exhaled in the air, hoping that his burden would also come off with the breath he let go.
