My Amazing Husband's
In order not to Lie

"Who is it?"

"I'm Elvan sir. I'm Risa's friend from the city." Elvan replied politely.

Mr. Rahmad noticed the appearance of a man who was taller than him. Remembered again. Who is this Elvan? Is this Elvan her daughter talked about a few weeks ago? Is this man really? Didn't Risa say that her friend came to study livestock?

"Oh, son Elvan. I'm Rahmad, Risa's father." Said Mr. Rahmad who was silent a moment ago. They also shake hands. "Let's go in first, let's sit down and talk inside." Mr. Rahmad said in the end let him in.

"Yes, thank you sir." Elvan went inside the house and sat on a teak chair with a dark purple padded sponge. Looks like the house is full of purple.

Again, Mr. Elvan noticed Elvan's appearance. Men who wear red checkered shirts combined with a jacket made of plain black Korean style cotton, and wear black jeans as well.

"Son Elvan fasts?" Ask Mr. Rahmad after a little calm in his sitting position.

"God willing I fast sir." Elvan answered a little nervously. The first time in his life he faced a man who still bears the responsibility of being the father of someone he wants to marry.

"Alhamdulillah, what's the need for Elvan here?" Ask Mr. Rahmad because Risa only said there would be friends Ratna who want to learn goat breeding. It wasn't Elvan that Risa told me a few days ago.

"Sorry before, sir, if I'm presumptuous. I actually got the address of the father by lying to Risa if I as a friend of Ratna his best friend wanted to learn goat breeding from the father." Honest answer. Enough he lied to Risa, but he wanted to start honesty with Risa's father.

"Emmm. So Elvan's son here doesn't want to study cattle? Then what do you want?" Ask Mr. Rahmad who is now leaning on the back of his chair. Mr. Rahmad's sitting position is at the end of the sofa facing the table, while Elvan sits in a long chair that forms the elbow.

"I... I'm..." Elvan took a breath and exhaled it violently. "I want to ask for direct blessing to the Father to approach Risa, and if possible I will directly propose to Risa." Elvan answered honestly.

"Hmmmm..." Mr. Rahmad nodded his head. He thought for a moment. Once again he looked at Elvan's handsome face. Her nose was well-organized with a few bangs covering her forehead.

This is the man who will take over my responsibilities. This is the man God chose to be my daughter's mate. But why would he lie to my daughter? Ah, I see, Risa definitely won't take it for granted. He tried to approach me to get Risa's heart? This guy is struggling like him. Mr. Rahmad chuckled in his heart.

Silent

"Then, Son Elvan learned to breed here first. So Elvan won't lie to Risa." Mr Rahmad's proposal.

"Em. good sir I will learn, if I stay, honestly I have not sought lodging." Elvan said a little doubtfully. He was tired from the long journey.

"Please, I also live alone, I'm even happy to have a friend to chat with." Mr. Rahmad smiled. "There is only Risa's room that is empty and can be occupied. Because the other room I use for a small mushola if I teach. How's it?"

"No problem sir, and thank you very much for accepting me." Elvan said with a happy smile. This is what he really expected. You can meet and know directly with his Father-in-law. So that they will know each other.

Rahmad stood up and asked Elvan to follow him to Risa's room.

"Please son Elvan rest here, must be tired of traveling far. I clean every day so be calm. Insha Allah is comfortable" Mr. Rahmad opened the door of Risa's room.

"Thank you very much sir." Elvan enters Risa's room.

Mr. Rahmad smiled then closed the door of the room giving privacy for Elvan to be able to rest. Mr. Rahmad had indeed heard the name Elvan from Risa's story. And that's why he allowed Elvan to stay in his house. Although Risa herself did not know that the one who came was Elvan, the man who until now still has not given an answer to her application.

The bright purple room was arranged so nicely that it looked so comfortable to occupy. There is a glass cabinet with a large mirror, adding to the spacious impression of the 4x4-meter room. There is also a dressing table made of real teak wood with many drawers and oval-shaped mirrors close to the room window. The window of the room was open making the air circulation very good in the room which was also filled with dolls typical of girls.

Elvan put his backpack on the bed. Then walk to the bathroom in the room. He cleaned himself after taking his toiletries in a backpack.

The bathroom was very clean. Bottles of soap bottles and shampoos are neatly arranged. Even though the floor is dry, the sign that the owner rarely uses it. Elvan bathed in a shower drenched his entire body with water, to drive away fatigue from long trips that drain his energy.

Elvan came out with a towel wrapped around her waist, her hair still wet she shook. His sixpack stomach adds to the masculine effect of the tall, white man.

After finishing the show and changing his clothes, Elvan poured his tired body on the soft mattress owned by Risa. With his position lying down, Elvan could see a very large photo of Risa hanging on the wall of the room right in front of him. The photo showed a very sweet smile from Risa. Her straight hair passed through her shoulders beautifully. It was as if he was smiling at Elvan.

You look so beautiful Ris. Did you know I was here, Ris? After this I will assure your father that I can be a good husband to you. And I hope that my efforts will not be in vain. May you accept me Risa. And may we be destined to be united.

Elvan laughed at himself. He never approached women. She doesn't even understand how to date. All he wants is to have Risa for good, after the new marriage he will think about how to date actually.

After checking his phone many times, Elvan did not get a network mark on his phone. He even restarted his phone.

"Udah in re-start kok still no network. Is there really no network here, or is this phone broken." His murmur was flipping back at his touchscreen phone.

"Ris, I can't call you. And I'm not going home until I get your father's blessing, Ris." Elvan spoke with a photo of Risa, standing still as she turned her phone back. Lifting it high hopes it will find the network.

***

"Sir, I'm sorry is the network here difficult huh?" Elvan asked as they chatted after dinner after returning home the tarawih mosque. Because when breaking the fast they only drink ice compote and also eat fruit.

"What kind of operator does Elvan use? Got me there's still a network even if it's just one bar." Ask Mr. Rahmad, because the network at home Mr. Rahmad is very minimal.

"I use AA sir there is absolutely no network." Replied Elvan who had not found a network at all.

"Oh, pantesans. I use this CC operator here is still meningan. It's a difficult network here, understand me son, this is in the village. Not the capital" Mr. Rahmad chuckled, because he also changed his simcard just to check the best network.

"Oh, so I have to change the operator yes sir." Elvan nodded his head.

"Tomorrow to come with me to the goat market. There's a counter that sells first, all I plan to see a goat." Said Mr. Rahmad.

They also tell each other at length. Discuss the goat, and also of course discuss Risa. The girl Elvan was fighting for, I don't know what she was doing. Elvan kept thinking about it.

***

In Risa's room.

Risa just returned from the mosque after the morning prayers. He checked his phone again. No word from Elvan.

You go where Mas, after saying goodbye yesterday morning Mas Elvan has not told you. Risa

Risa sad. He felt a longing in his heart. No small attention from Elvan. There is no message Elvan reminds to pray. Even until the sahur was still not sending a message, which usually asks for the sahur menu.

Risa tries to call Elvan's number, but her phone still can't be reached. Even his whatsapp messages have not been read by Elvan.

Then Risa called her father. I meant to ask if Ratna's friend had come.

After the third waiting note, his phone was lifted.

"Assalamu'alaikum Ris." Said mr. Rahmad.

"Waalaikumsalam. What's dad again?" Ask Risa.

"It's ready to go to the goat market. Dad's planning on buying another goat to cross-marry Ris." Said Mr. Rahmad.

"Oh yeah, you know, Ratna came, said Ratna last night, her friend arrived at our house in the village." Said Risa who last night met Ratna, and told her friend was at Risa's house.

"Oh, yes, I've met you. The plan is to take you to the market all together to know many types of goats." Said Mr. Rahmad.

"Oh, thank goodness that's it."

"Sorry sir, the bike is ready." There was the voice of a man behind Risa's father.

Deg. Like Elvan's voice. Is that really Mas Elvan. But why is he at dad's house.?

Seriate....
