Same Marriage as the Former
38. Fiancee

...Happy Reading's...

It has been three days Echa was in his hometown, namely Jogja. His daily routine is just alternating waiting for the oma at the Hospital and checking the incoming office email. Boring? Sure didn't. For Echa this is real healing. This is what Echa needed for a long time, just near the family but still carrying out his duties in the office.

"Bun, my mother has passed her critical period, said Mba Rani. And now it's been moved to the inpatient room. Tomorrow morning we have the impression," said the father approached the mother in the kitchen who was cooking dinner.

"Jaudah tomorrow morning we all go to the Hospital together" Mother replied.

When Echa and family entered the hospital room of his oma, looks oma is indeed already seen improving. Evidently from the oma who was talking from Aunt Echa, Rani.

"Maybe..." Sapa Echa quietly while walking closer to the oma bed.

Aunt Rani and Oma turned their heads while smiling. Then, Echa shines her oma followed by Reyhan, father, and mother.

"Oma how's she doing? Has improved? Echa kangen tauu,"

Echa tried to cover all sorts of her sadness with joy in front of everything, especially the oma. He hugged while gently rubbing his oma arm.

"Oma is good, especially if the grandchildren want to ngabulin oma request," replied oma with a soft smile.

Hearing that, Echa gave a clumsy smile. He sighed and then grinned, showing his teeth awkwardly.

"Echa wants a fiancee. Anyway later oma should see fitting Echa fiancee until Echa marriage. Okay?" said Echa trying to convince his oma.

To be honest, Echa herself was unsure of what she was saying. Father, mother, and others did not know the meaning of Echa's words. However, Echa had thought of everything. And he'll tell it all later.

"Alhamdulillah. When's? Now his fiancee, oma wants to see." Said the oma who directly sumringah.

"Emm, it's sudden gabisa oma."

"Nobody is going to go, baby. Anyway Ima wants Echa's fiancee tomorrow." Undeniable oma speech.

"Emm.." muttered Echa as she glanced into the eyes of her father and her mother.

"Mom, mommy, now rest first. I've just recovered, yes tomorrow Echa directly fiancee." Father's law.

"Yes mending now mother rest, so tomorrow can see Echa fiancee right," added mother.

"Yes, anyway I want to see Echa's fiance tomorrow." His word.

After that, father, mother, and Echa came out of the room. While Aunt Rani has gone home and Reyhan is keeping the oma who is resting inside.

"What do you mean, baby, speaking to oma?" Ask mother.

Echa was silent for a moment and took a breath before speaking.

"You promised that oma was like that. Then you must keep your word, Echa." I said because Echa hasn't answered.

"Echa fiancee was the same as Mas Gilang." Echa.

Mother frowned, then said. "Cha, if you want to be tied up like that. You've got nobody."

Echa understands what the mother means. Mommy already knows and understands, that Echa still objected to his match with Gilang. Because there was still someone in his heart.

Echa shook her head while finalizing her decision. While the father just silently listened to both mother and child argue. And the mother who was still staring at Echa with a serious gaze.

"This is not something that can be played with, Echa." Mother said.

"For the sake of mother's oma," replied Echa who was also staring at her mother.

"But you can tell me the truth as well as the oma."

"Echa gamau ngecewain oma bun," said Echa while looking down.

"Once your decision is complete, mother will contact her mother Gilang. Remember, do not let Echa disappoint many people, including yourself." Said the mother firmly and went straight into the room oma again.

"Dad believes you've thought of everything." Said dad while hugging Echa, then went to follow mom inside.

Echa is pensive and sitting alone in a chair that is available in front of the inpatient room oma. I hope that his decision is right.

After a long silence in front of the room, Echa entered the room again. However, just as he was about to open the door, the door was opened from inside and the mother was seen coming out of the room.

"Mother has called Gilang's mother and they agree that you are engaged tomorrow. Mommy has also prepared everything, the show is just a family we have in the room oma, because oma has not been allowed to come out. And tomorrow morning Gilang's family has arrived in Jogja, you will pick up in the airport." Obviously the mother impressed cold, which was answered nod by Echa.

"Come on, oma nyariin. Mother same father wants to go out first." Tell mom, then go with dad.

This morning Echa was at Adisutjipto Airport in Yogyakarta. He was waiting for the arrival of the Gilang family who said mother arrived in Jogja in the morning.

It was almost eight o'clock, Echa who was wearing her casual clothes had repeatedly turned right and left to find them.

"Mas Gilang's.." Shouted Echa while waving as he looked at Mas Gilang and his papa mama from a distance.

Gilang who looks to find the source of the sound, finally turns to Echa and he is seen pointing towards Echa - seems to tell his parents-.

"cha.. How are you, baby?"

"Okay aunty alhamdulillah, how's the flight? Aman?" Ask Echa while greeting and hugging Mama Gilang.

"Alhamdulillah.aman, mother and others how are you? You're here because your oma is sick, huh?" Cerocos Mama Gilang while walking towards Echa's car, which was followed by Gilang and her Papa behind them.

"Mother's father is all healthy aunt. I'm sick, keep getting into the ICU too, so we still stay here." Clear Echa.

"Eh Cha, let me take the car. You sit in the back just as mamah," said Gilang took over the car keys when Echa was about to open the driver's car door.

"Ohh okay-okay mas, later Echa show the way." reply Echa.

"Jaudah if that Echa sitting in front of the same Galang," said Mama Gilang.

"OK tan," replied Echa while nodding.

The Gilang family is staying and will be spending their time in Jogja by renting a Villa close to Villa Echa as well. During the trip to Villa, Echa and Gilang felt awward. They only talk when they talk about where the villa is. Echa chatted more with Mama Gilang and Papa Gilang who occasionally hoarded.

After arriving at the inn, Echa helped them to arrange their luggage. Currently, papa Gilang's mama was inside, while Gilang asked Echa to take a short walk around the inn.

"I'm horrified, are you asking us to be fiancee now?" Tanya Gilang who was walking slowly while putting her hand in her pants pocket.

"Yes mas. Oma asked Echa to get married immediately" replied Echa who was walking beside Gilang.

Hearing Echa's reply, Gilang suddenly stopped his steps and turned to Echa.

"That means you have to?" Tanya Gipang relaxed but impressed intimidating.

Echa looked down, confused as to what to answer.

"God willing, Echa will not abuse Mas Gilang. Echa will try to open her heart again for Mas Gilang," replied Echa with a smile knot.

"You sure Cha?"

"Yes Mas Gilang." replied Echa still with a reassuring smile.

Gilang who saw the confidence in Echa's eyes also smiled. Then, hold Echa's hand and walk again.
