"Allahuakbar-Allahuakbar."
The voice of Adhan was echoing in the sky. I opened my eyes and saw that the wall clock had shown at 15:35 which meant that it had shown the time of Ashar. I got up from my sleep and rushed to get a towel to take a bath. After taking a bath of course I want as usual I take Wudlu to perform the prayer. After the salesai shower and perform the prayer I was about to leave the room to take a glass of drinking water. As I headed to the kitchen I saw Dad sitting in the living room Sopa watching TV.
"Glass...?" Father called.
"She, Dad." I answered Dad's call.
"Sit here!" father said as he waved his hand and then patted Sopa telling me to sit down.
"Well, what's up, Dad?" i'm astonished.
"Dad wants to talk seriously to you!" said Father.
"Speak about what, Dad?" I'm getting more astonished.
"Your life is now 23 years old, and you have also graduated from college." I was silent for a moment. Makes the atmosphere mysterious.
"Yes keep going !" My reply.
"Ek... you... you... when is marriage?" father said with stammering words.
"God willing next month someone will propose to me Well." My eyes began to ventured to tell Father about Joseph.
"Gee... Nice dong. Who is he?, how is he?, rich or not?. You should marry the rich man Raisa.
"His name is Yusuf Yah, he santri in Cianjur boarding school. He was kind, righteous, religious and polite, Well." I said giving Joseph kindness to Dad.
"He's rich?" said father cluckling with his will.
"He's rich, Dad. He's now a famous writer." I convinced Dad. Dad just shook his head and went into his room.
After I talked to Dad, I went straight to the kitchen. In the kitchen, I was cooking for dinner.
I went straight to Mom and hugged her from behind as my eyes glazed over.
"Mother...?" Hugging Mom with pampering.
"Yes dear." reply Mom.
"Who is Joseph?" Mother asked about Joseph while being happy.
"Oh Yes... Caca has never told you about Joseph. Joseph Caca's friend in the past, he once ruled Caca's heart fit in school time first. Well now Yusuf is back to ask me Ta'aruf even next month Yusuf wants to propose to me." I explained everything to Mom.
"Good dong, Ca...?!" said Mother.
"Yes, but Dad was talking about Joseph being rich or not. Joseph is now rich Mom he is now a famous writer, his work is also many. I don't seem to like writers." I didn't realize my tears were flowing.
"Yas already. later let me talk to you. Don't cry."
That night my family and I had dinner together with a makeshift menu.
"Well... Caca is already ta'aruf with Joseph, it seems that Joseph is good, Joseph lives in the boarding school, you know." said the mother assured the heart of Father.
"Keep why?" ask Dad.
"Let Caca make her own choice, Dad."
"Dad didn't ban Caca from anyone. I need to know first who's getting married to Caca." Dad replied with a mysterious smile.
"Well Dad, next month Yusuf will be here to propose to Caca Yah. I can judge for myself." I said with teary eyes.
"Okay. and if you don't like me you should forget about her and marry my choice." Dad replied firmly.
After the meal I went straight into the room and climbed on the bed to relax a very tired body. Not long after that, my tears flowed down my cheeks and then I fell asleep.
"Raisa you have the heart..."
"Yusuf...?" I screamed and woke up from my sleep.
"Hoh..hoh.hohh." I exhaled violently.
"Duh is just a dream." My inner self.
I saw the clock showing 00.00 midnight. I immediately rushed to the bathroom to take Wudlu to perform Tahazud prayers so that my heart was calmer.
After performing the prayer I went back up to the bed and laid my tub.
