Shadow From the Past
Chapter 4
-Assalamualaik. Elvina, this is me Vano. Sorry to interrupt your time. I'm sorry to ask, I guess I can go to your house right now?-
Elvina widened her eyes as she read a message from a number she had not saved on her contact list. Confused, Vano got his cell phone number from where? As they remember they have never sent a message, because if there is a task or whatever it is about the lecture usually by email.
-Waalaikumsalam. Mr Vano got my number from whom?-
Previously Elvina wanted her curiosity answered first. He has not given an answer whether or not Vano came to his house this afternoon.
- I asked your friend
“Hah? Mr Vano ask my number to my friend? Who is I guess? Oh, my God, my friend must be confused about why Mr. Vano asked for my number. I hope my friend doesn't misunderstand me. Afraid I think I have a relationship with Mr. Vano,”
- El? Can I go to your house now?-
why yes, sir?-
- You know your parents and want to make sure you eat together if they allow it
“Yes, Mr. Vano why is it so set. I'm a club this time,”
********
“Where? Elvina can you go to her house? Hopefully yes, and hopefully the cake that Mama made was liked by Elvina, and parents. Honestly Mama would also know her parents, but ‘kan you just do not know yes, our time immediately came rame-rame there. Later they were shocked again, he thought he wanted to sleep. Yes, Mama Papa gave it time for you who started the introduction,”
Vano laughed and confirmed his mother's words. If he comes directly to bring his parents, he is worried about being awkward, and Elvina's parents think he does not give time to Elvina to think about everything first.
“Wah, anyone brought a cake? I want ya, Ma. Please cut me down to try, Ma,”
“Eh uh it's not for you,”
Davina came to the dining room, and saw two boxes of cookies. He thought it was someone else's gift and he wanted to try it, but it was forbidden by Lisa, his mother.
“Lho, why? Why not for sku? Tumben Mom stingy,”
“Eh Mama is not stingy, but what makes you on the dining table, look first, this is for people to give to tau,”
“Oh it wants to be given to people?”
Davina immediately opened the hood of the serving in the middle of the dining table, and sure enough she found a flat plate containing cakes that had been cut into pieces by her mother.
“Assyik Mama make cake. Thanks yes, Mama,”
“Sama-sama, good luck. So Mama is not stingy!”
“Hahahaha sorry, Ma. Kirain I don't get rations, kok tumben,”
“No way, Mama made something but not for her son. This is what you held for your future sister-in-law,” Lisa's explanation immediately invited a smile Vano who was happy to hear the sentence ejected from his mother's mouth. Davina's reaction was to widen her eyes.
“Hah? My sister-in-law?”
“Still candidates, doain aja hopefully so, and all smoothly,”
“Wh can?”
“Well, how do you mean?”
“Yes I mean, how can I know you already have a sister-in-law? Does your brother have a girlfriend, right? How not to be known to me anyway?”
“Abang, how is he? Okay?”
“If it is not good, you can not love, Dek,” Lisa replied that immediately made Davina turn her eyeballs. He who is possessive of the brother, feels sad not yet accepted because his brother already has a mooring of heart.
“Emang Brother Love with her, Bang?”
“Iya, but only secretly so far, now it's not dong,”
“So Brother has been dating her?”
“No dating can be said too, Dek. Doain aja can be facilitated to a serious level yes,”
“You want to marry directly? Is she a good girl?”
“Abang before more in love with women, Brother find out first as much as brother,”
“Yeah, means I'll lose brother dong,”
“Eh, how do you say that? No, you're not going anywhere. Your brother remains your brother even though later brother already has a partner,”
“But I'm afraid you're not paying attention to me anymore, Bang,”
Vano chuckled and immediately rubbed the top of his sister's head who was still in high school.
“Please yes, don't worry. Brother will keep your attention, Dek,”
“How important is Brother's wife? He'll accept me?”
“Ya must dong, if she accepts Brother, yes she must accept brother's family too. Vice versa. Brother accepts him, meaning brother must also accept his family. We have to be each other, not just one party,”
“Who is he, Bang? Working where? How old is it?”
“She coed brother, Dek,”
“Hah? Student, Bang? Seriously? How can? I mean, ‘kan Brother have girl friends dong for sure? Who is not a student anymore, but why choose a brother student?”
“Yes because Brother is interested in him, according to brother he is different. So the first time my brother taught in his class, my brother was immediately interested. Brother even so difficult for professionals if it has been taught in class he, because the innate want to memuratiin him so, rather than ngajar. For six months brother kayak so, it's hard to like just secretly it, Finally yesterday Brother dared to invite him to eat together and Brother talk to him about the feeling of Brother,”
“So you know your parents yet?”
“Not yet, people talk to both of him just yesterday, how does the story already know his parents? Well this brother wants to go home he just has no answer can or not,”
“What's the age, Bang?”
“Two one, Deck,”
“Hah? The difference is quite far with Brother,”
“Ya why? Match ‘kan does not depend on age or others. If Allah says that he is a soul mate. In fact, many kok age difference is further than the same brother Elvina, Dek,” said Lisa who does not matter the least her child wants to meet a mate whose age. Wanting older or younger, which is important both, accepting Vano's and family's shortcomings, making Vano comfortable being nearby, it was more than enough for Lisa.
Vano's phone suddenly shook and it turned out that a reply from Elvina had been sent. In a hurry he read it.
- By the way, Mother's father I happen to be at home all-
Reading the message, Vano smiled sumringah. It's a good start for him. Being given the chance to meet Elvina's parents is what makes Vano so happy. Regardless of how they would react after meeting him, the most important thing for Vano now is that he can get to know Elvina's parents.
