My Amazing Husband's
Ask for Restu

Risa just came home after representing Alvero met with a client. Because Kevin, who used to represent Alvero, is overseas to review their project here. The deputy director's absence made him replace his duties. Alvero, who has been leading the meeting with shareholders, is sitting quietly in his office chair.

Risa knocked on the door of the leader's room. After receiving permission, He entered, and now He stood before Alvero.

Risa also submitted the documents of her meeting with the client to be checked again by Alvero.

"How long have you been working for Ris?" Alvero asked while checking the results of the meeting that Risa handed over.

"I've only been working this year sir. Sorry, why sir?" Risa replied a little nervously, is there anything wrong with the results of her work.

"Emmm.. I like your work. Defend yes!" Alvero.

"Thank you sir. I am also still learning with Mr. Alvero and Mr. Kevin who always help me." Slowly nod his head.

"Hmmm.. By the way you're taking a holiday where is Ris?" Alvero asked as she returned the documents to Risa's hands.

"I'm going to the village sir. Lebaran is indeed a time to gather with the family sir." Said Risa.

"Hemm, what a pity Ris, even though I want to take you on vacation to Japan with my extended family." Alvero said with a regretful tone. "Maybe next time we can vacation the same. You want to, right?" Invite him with a smile to look into Risa's eyes.

Risa did not reply, only an awkward smile was engraved on her face. Strange, why his boss arrived to take him on vacation.

After that, Risa decided to return to her desk. Still surprised he thought of the word Alvero just now.

Mr Alvero take me on vacation? Is it not wrong?

Risa is slowly. He recalled how angry Mama Alvero was when Alvero wanted to go open with him. Really he did not want to imagine what kind of reaction Mama Topsnya if only he heard Alvero's invitation to go on vacation.

At Risa's Father's House.

After returning home Friday prayers, Elvan who was installing his new sim card was sitting in the guest chair. He hopes there will be a network even if only a little so that he will be able to communicate with Risa.

After finishing installing and registering his sim card, Elvan tried to send a chat message to Risa.

[Assalamu'alaikum beautiful, what else? Definitely more work.]

Afterwards Elvan sent a message to Galih.

[Bro, how's the workshop,? Aman?]

Galih and Risa have not read the message. Finally he put his phone back on the table. And then Mr. Rahmad went into the house.

"Son Elvan, haven't rested yet." Mr. Rahmad saw Elvan who was still wearing a glove sitting on his living room chair.

"Not yet sir, just later." Answer Elvan.

Rahmad then sat down next to Elvan.

"So will Elvan hear my answer now or later?" Ask Mr. Rahmad whose eyes are focused on the big television he just turned on.

"Emm if you can, sir, because the plan is to leave tomorrow morning." Said Elvan looking towards Rahmad sir. He was so hoping to get good news from Mr. Rahmad.

"If I don't agree, what will Elvan do?" Ask Mr. Rahmad who is still focused on seeing television shows.

Elvan took a deep breath, his confidence almost gone, but he still did not want to give up.

"I will try to convince the Father, I can not promise to make the Father's Daughter always happy, because I realize I will not be able to make everything under control according to my wishes. But I promise I'll always be there beside her when she's happy, sad, and crying." Elvan answered with a sigh.

"I as a parent do want Risa to get the best, but as a human being I also realize, my child has many shortcomings." Mr. Rahmad took a deep breath. There is a sense of sadness and happiness because his little daughter has now grown up and will be asked by others who he just knew a few days to be a wife. "If Nak Elvan is serious, Son Elvan can bring Nak Elvan's parents here after Risa approves this proposal." Said Mr. Rahmad staring at Elvan.

"My mother is dead sir, and I'm not sure if my father will be able to come. But my grandparents will definitely come." Elvan.

"Where is Elvan's dad?" Ask Mr. Rahmad began to wonder.

"My father...." Elvan thought about what was the right word to answer Mr. Rahmad's question. Whether he should be honest or just cover up that fact.

Elvan was still lost in his thoughts. What should he say to Mr. Rahmad. Should he honestly say about the state of the relationship with his father who until now no longer close. Whether Mr. Rahmad will accept his condition. Or it will make Mr. Rahmad reject it. Elvan's confused. He just kept frowning his eyebrows.

"Son Elvan." Said mr. Rahmad. "Is Elvan's son okay." Ask Mr. Rahmad whose eyebrows Elvan wrinkled the sign he was thinking of something.

"Yes sir." Nod her still with her heart doubt.

"Did Elvan's father remarry after Elvan's mother's departure? Looks like Elvan's son is a little heavy for telling stories." Said mr. Rahmad.

"Emmm, that's not it, sir." Elvan was silent for a moment, he took as many breaths as he could then immediately exhaled. Many times he did and finally he was ready to tell a story.

"So my father had two wives, and my mother was my father's second wife." Answer bowed. There is no strength in him to just look into the eyes of Rahmad. He resigned whatever the decision of Mr. Rahmad, the most important thing is that he does not want to cover that fact anymore.

Rahmad is silent. He himself still digested the word Elvan said. There is a fear in his heart whether Elvan will also be like his father. Having two wives would hurt his daughter who he still considers the little princess.

"Honestly I don't want my child to experience the heartache of infidelity or even polygamy in his household. Is Elvan's son going to be like Elvan's father?" Ask Rahmad, who now seems to be judging him.

"I know how my mother feels. As a second wife, others viewed her as contemptible for seizing people's husbands. I knew how hurt my mother was when I learned that my mother was not the only woman in her husband's life. For that I promise not to make Risa experience what my mother experienced." Elvan lifted his head then lowered his head again after his sentence ended.

Rahmad was silent again. The silence that felt made the two of them drown in their respective minds.

Then Rahmad began to speak. "Take your father here, too."

Elvan raised his head back, as if regaining his strength had begun to disappear. Confidence again penetrated his soul. He smiled at the sumringah. It was obvious happiness in his eyes.

"God willing, I will also take my father." Elvan said with a smile on her lips.

"Your son Elvan rest. It's wearing it to treat Elvan's legs." Mr. Rahmad gave a cream to Elvan. Mr. Rahmad knows that it looks like Elvan's white skin is allergic to weeds in the forest.

"Thank you sir. I'm fine, it's just a little itchy itch." Elvan.

"It's like Nak Elvan's legs are allergic. It can treat that allergy." Said Mr. Rahmad took Elvan's hand and put the cream in Elvan's hand.

"Thank you sir." Elvan.

Rahmad smiled and went to his room. Elvan put the cream on his feet.

Elvan slept well that afternoon, now he just needs to focus on convincing Risa to accept him as a future husband. Ah, it feels like he can't wait for Risa's answer.

The hot day has changed with a beautiful afternoon. After the Ashar prayer, Elvan invited Mr. Ridwan to look for takjil. This is his last open at Rahmad's house. He also wants to be closer to the man he now crowns as a prospective father-in-law.

They're headed for an impromptu market. Because only a day of fasting like this place becomes a market. Many types of food sold, ranging from various ice, various puddings, side dishes, various processed vegetables are also available.

After stopping in a large enough place. Mr. Rahmad took Elvan to a stand that sold various side dishes.

"Well, who is Rahmad? How come I've never seen it?" Ask a side dish vendor.

"Oh, this is Risa's friend who happens to have another need to keep stopping by and staying at my house." Mr. Rahmad replied with a special laugh.

"Assalamu'alaikum I'm Elvan bu." Elvan introduced himself.

"Waalaikumsalam, I'm Marsih, you are very handsome." Said the seller.

"Thank you." Elvan answered with a smile while showing off his neat geligian teeth.

"Are you friends or Risa's boyfriend?" Ask the seller next to the Marsih foam.

"I'm his friend. God willing, if you are a fool, you will be her husband." Elvan chuckles, people say the word is do'a. And hopefully his do'a will be done soon.

"Aamiin, I pray that Elvan will mate with Risa. If I see you guys seem to be compatible." Miss Marsih assures Elvan's prayer.

"Already already, I want to bandeng presto his one." Mr. Rahmad said pointing towards the milkfish wrapped in plastic mica. "Where does Elvan want to go?" Ask Mr. Rahmad.

"Em. I'm a balado chicken deh, as well as his presto bandeng may also make sahur later." Elvan. "Sir Rahmad will eat what? Don't you buy?" Ask Elvan.

"Oh yeah I forgot, roasted chicken just marsih foam, which is the thigh part yes." Said Mr. Rahmad.

"Yes sebenta." Miss Marsih wrapped up all orders Elvan and Mr. Rahmad. "It." Bu Marsih said he handed him a plastic bag containing balado chicken, presto milk and roasted chicken.

Elvan accepted it immediately. "How much is everything mom?"

"Everything is forty thousand." Said mam Marsih after counting it.

"It's mom, the change is for mom." Said Elvan handing over fifty thousand.

"Thank you, son Elvan, hopefully soon it can be his ex-sister Mr. Rahmad." The word mam Marsih which was later adopted by Elvan.

They also headed for the beverage merchant. There are many types of drinks sold. The place is more crowded than the Marsih froth place so they both have to queue.

"Sir Rahmad wants what I can buy you all. It seems too crowded rather than later jostling." Elvan.

"Em, yes already then, I want ice compote banana only. Elvan boy who's queuing up. Oh yeah, don't call me sir, just call me dad, let's get used to it." Said mr. Rahmad.

"Yes well sir, uh means well." said Elvan a little awkwardly.

Mr. Rahmad chuckled.

Now Elvan is buying a thirst-quenching sweet drink that can also delay hunger. Every now and then the girl next to him glanced in admiration at Elvan. But as if Elvan did not pay attention, he was more focused on the seller. After being satisfied to go around buying takjil they both went home. Prepare to break the fast at home.
