Old Man's Rembugan
When Pandu had managed to convince Ervita, of course the young man felt so relieved. It is not easy to convince Ervita and now, Pandu has been eager to convince her so that Pandu's intention to propose Ervita more firmly. Ervita who cried and hoped that his decision this time was not the wrong decision and also sowed hope and hope in a better future. Hopefully, Pandu is a leader who can guide his life and Indira to a better path.
No warm hugs, no kisses that Pandu gives. It has become Pandu's intention that even if he will touch women, when it is halal for him. It is better to limit yourself, and hold back until Ervita truly becomes his wife.
"Please Vi .. I will love you and Indi. We're going home now?" ask Pandu later.
Ervita nodded her head, "Yes Mas Pandu," she replied softly.
Pandu immediately drove his car, back to Ervita's house. It is only a few minutes drive away, and Pandu has arrived home. The young man opens the car door for Ervita.
"Come, Vi .. Our parents are waiting" he said.
The two finally entered Ervita's house, and the parents were seen being rebugan there. Seeing the arrival of Pandu and Ervita, of course the family of Pak Agus, and the Hadinata family became so relieved.
"How's it?" ask them quickly.
Pandu commented on the smile there, "Yes, Ervita is ready," said Pandu.
"Alhamdulillah," replied the whole family together.
Mei who heard there was a good man who came with her family and proposed to her brother was so happy. It was Mei who hugged her sister. "Finally Ma'am ... Mei was happy. Mei is happy" she said with tears in her eyes.
To save time, because the Hadinata family will also return to Jogjakarta, Pak Hadinata also spoke first to the family of Pak Agus there.
"Both of our children agree. So, when is a good day to formalize the bond between Pandu and Ervi?" ask Mr. Hadinata.
"All days are good, sir .. All are God's. We, leave it to Mr. Hadinata only," replied Mr. Agus.
"If we want it as soon as possible, Mr. .. After all, Ervita has also been living with us. So, inaugurated sooner is certainly better" replied Mr. Hadinata.
Then Mr. Hadinata seemed to say something that would be careful to say it, "If, akad and reception were held in Jogja how did Pak Agus? Later we can ask for help there. Just simple and attended family is okay. The important thing is that both are equally legitimate" replied Mr. Hadinata again.
"Well Mr. Hadinata, it's okay. If it takes place only 40 days how sir? We also recently married his sister Ervita, in Java alone married two children at the same time is also not good count. So, one lapse of eight. (One eight is a round of approximately 35 days) Is not too fast for the family?" ask Agus then.
Mr. Hadinata nodded his head, "Well sir. So, another eight well, we marry Pandu to Ervita. Thus Mr. Agus, we at the same time please leave first. Before the contract, we will come and give the dowry to Ervita. Ervi, do you want to come home?" ask Mr. Hadinata again.
Before Ervita answered, apparently Bu Sri had answered first, "Stay, Vi .. even if only overnight," pinta Bu Sri.
Ervita looked at Pandu sitting there, "How's Mas?" tanyakanya.
Pandu then looked at both Ervita's parents, "A guide who stays here can't ma'am? Sleeping on the sofa is not a problem," replied Pandu.
Mr. Agus and Bu Sri nodded his head, "There is no guest room here, Mas Pandu .. is it okay?" ask Mr. Agus.
"Yes, no problem" replied Pandu.
Until that afternoon, the Hadinata family will soon return to Jogjakarta, and Ervita and Pandu will stay overnight in Solo. As a child who had not lived in his own home for a long time, there was a feeling of pleasure, but there was a feeling of awkwardness as well. It's just, Ervita is trying to enjoy this togetherness.
"Eat again Mas Pandu," said Bu Sri who offered a meal to his future son-in-law.
"Halah Bu .. had eaten the same Indi. Later," reply Pandu.
Madam Sri nodded her head, "Later if you want to take a shower, the bathroom in the back is Mas Pandu. I'm sorry, just like this is the state of the house, simple."
"It's just the same, ma'am ..it's okay" Pandu replied.
"To be exact 2 years this Ms. .. previously Ervi kost alone. After giving birth, Ms. Tari invited Ervita to live in the house next to the Hadinata family's main house. In one yard there are two houses, Ervi lives there with Indi," he told the Mother.
"Pardon Father and Mother yes Vi... for our mistakes, we should not be that angry with you," said Bu Sri with regret.
"Already, Mom .. It's all just the past. Ervi and Indi are fine" Ervita replied.

The night ....
The night on the outskirts of Bengawan city was quiet. Unlike in the city of Jogjakarta where many motorcycles go back and forth. Even at 19:00, in the neighborhood of Ervita's house already feels lonely.
In front of the house, it appears that Mr. Agus spoke with Pandu and Tanto there. While Ervita and Mei chat with Bu Sri.
"First night at home, May?" ask Ervita.
Seemed Mei smiling, "Yes, just at home, Ma'am .. want where else," May replied.
"Ready?" ask Ervita again.
Mei smiled and seemed to blush in shame, "Mbak this is what the hell, wear everything," he replied.
By 21:00, Mom and Dad were in the room. So did Mei and Tanto who went up to the upper room. Indi who had slept in Ervita's room, and also Ervita who came out of the room and gave blankets and pillows for Pandu.
"Mas Pandu .. pillow and blanket. It's clean" said Ervita.
Pandu nodded his head, "Yes, thank you very much well" he replied.
"Mas Pandu does not stay at the hotel only. Sleeping on the couch was uncomfortable. After all this house is very simple" replied Ervita.
Pandu nodded his head, "It's normal for Vi. Is Indi asleep?" ask again.
"Yes, it's been since then" said Ervita.
Pandu then smiled, "You hunt sleep there. What time is it going to Jogjakarta tomorrow?"
"Not yet to know ... Mas Pandu there's work tomorrow?" ask Ervita again.
"No, just relax. Vi ...."
Pandu called Ervita's name there, and glanced at Ervita. The smile is there.
"Hmm, yes Mas Pandu," said Ervita by lowering his face. It was so embarrassing and awkward to be with that young man.
"It's okay. Sleeping there ... it's night, we have to sleep before later make the newlyweds can not enjoy the first night. One eight more, we catch up well," Pandu replied.
Ervita was still silent, rather not daring to give a reply.
"Following formalizes our relationship. Me, you, and Indi. We will live together" Pandu said again.
Ervita smiled faintly, "Yes already .. met Mas Pandu night," replied Ervita and passed leaving Pandu who that night actually slept on the sofa in the living room.
