My Office Boy's
67. Decisions because of Dreams

Coming home from the streets together, Rani's mother thought about Damar's wak speech to her. It is true what was said by wak Damar, that in her old age now, Ibu Rani and wak Damar feel lonely. When the body was not as fit as before, the children did not even gather together anymore. They are busy with their families. Even if you visit, it cannot be done as often as possible because of the distance that is too far.

When it comes to feelings, actually Ibu Rani has not felt anything on uwak Damar. It was still very difficult for her to forget all her memories with her late husband. But she also realized, she needed someone to share everything at the end of her age. Maybe he does have Kalia, but after his son is married, Rani's mother can no longer have Kalia completely. Because Kalia must prioritize Surya as her husband. Although Surya would not mind if Kalia took care of him, but he also must know that his son has the right to be happy with his own family.

Rani's mother decided to pray only Istikharah, leaving all fate upon her to the Creator. He was convinced that God was indeed a planner in the lives of his people.

After the prayer, Ibu Rani performed the prayer istikharah. Hope God will give the answer through dreams or determination in making decisions. After she finished praying, Ibu Rani chanted do'a-do'a and thought to calm her heart.

The night was getting late when Rani's mother threw herself down, not long after that she was asleep. While asleep, Rani's mother dreams. He was sitting in a garden filled with yellow leaves falling. When he was sitting comfortably, suddenly someone came to him from a distance. The closer Ibu Rani gets, the more she knows who's coming. Yes, she is her late husband. Wearing white clothes like a robe. But Rani's mother did not see her face, only she believed that the person was her dead husband.

Her husband didn't say much, just holding her hand. But then, out of nowhere it came, there was another male figure coming at them. The man then stood to his left. Now Ibu Rani is flanked by two men. On the right is her late husband who still holds her hand, and on the left is a figure that she knows well some days, namely Uwak Damar.

When uwak Damar was already standing and getting closer to him, Pak Adi her late husband suddenly took off his hand. Then grab the hand of uwak Damar and link it to the hand of Ibu Rani. At first glance Ibu Rani heard her husband say, although not too clear.

" Blessed.."

In just one word, her late husband told her to be happy. After that Mother Rani woke up, a sweat filled her forehead. His consciousness was not yet full, but he remembered very well his series of dreams. It seems obvious as if it really happened. Not feeling her tears glide smoothly, there was a sense of longing in her heart.

Could this be the answer to the Istikharah prayer he did before going to bed? If it is true, it means she must accept Damar's uwak proposal against her as her late husband had said in a dream.

With the feeling of haru, Bu Rani stepped her feet into the bathroom to take ablution and dawn prayers. After the prayer, Ms. Rani continued by reading the Quran, her feelings calmed down and her determination became more and more unanimous that she should be happy with her decision. Perhaps this is the good destiny that God has prepared for him.

In the morning, Rani's mother told her about the dream she had to Kalia with great feelings.

" That means, I did ask Mama to be happy with someone else who can take care of Mama. Lia was also sad to hear the dream that Mama experienced, surely mama misses the same father, but maybe it is a message that I want to convey to Mama that Mama should be able to accept the application of Uwak." lia said while wiping away her mother's tears that continued to melt during the telling of the dream she had last night.

Rani's mother was silent for a long time, Kalia clasped her Mama's hand whose skin was not as tight as before although still smooth and soft.

" lady..Mama should be happy, like Dad's message." Kalia said briefly but was eventually able to develop a smile on her lips.

" Yes, if Lia doesn't mind Mama remarrying, and if it's a good fate that Allah gave to Mama, Mama will accept the proposal uwak Damar." answered Rani's mother while looking at her son's face lovingly.

News about Rani's mother who finally wanted to accept Uwak Damar's proposal immediately told Kalia to her husband who was at work. Surya also felt happy to hear it, because in the end both Ibu Rani and Uwak Damar can take care of each other. They will no longer feel lonely.

" Thank God, finally mama will accept uwak as well. So they can take care of each other now, will no longer be lonely. I am happy with her. When do we tell uwak?" ask Surya enthusiastically.

" Yes yes.biar mama directly aja who gave news. We wait for the end result." replied Surya later.

After finishing talking with her husband on the phone, Kalia went back to see her mother again and accompanied her to take care of Surya's ornamental plants in the yard of the house.

In the afternoon, Uwak Damar had come again to meet Ms. Rani. It's really amazing uwak his Surya this one. Very guerrilla to approach Mother Rani. But it turned out that his efforts were not in vain, producing brilliant results because now Mother Rani answered "yes, I do" for her application.

" So Rani actually accepted akang's proposal?" uwak Damar asked to confirm again that he might have heard wrongly.

" Yes kang, I accept. I have prayed istikharah and hopefully this is the best answer for everything." Ibu Rani replied again, and immediately developed a big smile on the face of Uwak Damar.

" Yes.hopefully this is a good destiny for us huh. At the age of twilight even met his soul mate. So you can take care of each other and leave each other." said uwak Surya while looking at Ibu Rani intensely and gently.

" When is Rani ready for marriage? Would you like to have a party, right? because I have business colleagues. All thanks, let many pray, let our marriage be blessed." said Wak Damar with an unfettered smile from his face.

" That's exactly it, kang. I have one condition, I do not want to get married anytime soon. I still want to see Kalia completely healed first, so I am calmer. And if I can, there is no need to have a party of all, I am ashamed and not happy too. Kalia, who is still young, married only in the office of religious affairs, my time his mother who has been this nine even throw a party. No need to kang.." replied Rani Mother later.

" Hemm..so is it? Though I really want to be able to hold a party and share it with others as a thank you for being able to have a beautiful companion candidate like this." said Uwak Damar began launching his ancient combalants. Ms. Rani shuddered and heard it. A few moments later..

" aah..What if we celebrate together. Our wedding reception as well as the wedding reception of Surya and Kalia that has not been celebrated before. For the cost, let me take responsibility for everything." said Uwak Damar excited. Rani's mother just gawked at it, how could it possibly happen? Mother and son held a reception together. What do people say?? He'll be embarrassed.
