SUFFERING AN EMPTY SON-IN-LAW
Introductory stage

Hilwa Anindya is currently in the room. He was standing in front of the mirror, staring at his reflection. Trying to find clothes and hijabs that are suitable for him.

This afternoon Hilwa will have a guest, whom he has been waiting for. A man who has been in communication for 2 months with him.

The man claimed to be Reno Ardinata whom he initially knew on social media. After approaching for 2 months, Reno finally decided to visit Hilwa's house.

After finishing his work, which is doing homework like a girl in general. Hilwa was getting ready to wear the clothes she had chosen.

He wears a little polish on his face. And do not forget to wear a hijab that matches the color of the clothes he wears.

Htc. .tok.

The sound of knocking on the front door sounded. Hilwa turned her head and rushed to open it.

Hilwa was surprised, seeing a male figure standing in front of it.

"Assalamu'alaikum" The man smiled and looked at him.

" Reno-kak? is that right, it's Reno??" he said that he was still in doubt because only this time he met in person.

" Yes right, I'm Reno. Didn't we make a pact to meet?"

" Aah yes, sorry brother. I didn't expect big brother to come home this early "

Reno is flirting. Right, Reno told Hilwa to visit during the day. But because he was impatient and afraid of getting stuck, so early in the morning departed from home.

He did not expect, will arrive this early at the house of Hilwa. Because the road is smooth without traffic seems usual.

" Eumm brother, departing from home early in the morning, for fear of getting stuck. But it seems like the streets did not want to hinder brother's intention to immediately meet you" Reno rubbed his nape to hold back the embarrassment.

Hilwa smiled as she looked at Reno's behavior. According to him, Reno is a humorous male figure. And he likes it a lot.

" Let's sit down, sister !" Hilwa invited her guests to sit on the porch. Because his parents are not there and are afraid to cause slander.

" I'm sorry, brother, I can't take you in. Because there is no one at home"

" It's okay, neng. It's more comfortable here"

Hilwa pamit went to the kitchen, to grab a drink and a snack.

After finishing making it, Hilwa returned to the terrace of the house.

" I'm sorry, sis, just tea" Hilwa put the teacup on the table.

" Thank you neng. It just so happened that big brother was thirsty" Reno unceremoniously drank it straight away.

Yes, Reno is the type of person who is not neko-neko. Her honest and humorous inn that made Hilwa feel comfortable had gotten to know the man who was sitting next to her.

At first Hilwa knew Reno on social media. Reno asks for friendship and sends a message.

Their communication has been established since then. Hilwa is initially hesitant, but as Reno continues to send her messages and invites her to get acquainted. And finally, the chatter turned to a private line.

They were getting more intense, exchanging chats. Until after one month, Reno expressed her feelings, wanting to get to know the figure of the woman who had stolen his attention, since the first time he saw a profile photo on his social media account.

" Neng, where did father and mother go?" Reno making small talk

" You go to work and you're taking Alif to school"

" What time do you leave the house?"

" eummm finished breakfast brother immediately leave, neng"

" Neng, how will our next relationship continue?" Reno who quits his pleasantries.

" Hilwa is up to sister, how good it is"

Deg. . .

There was a feeling of happiness in Hilwa's heart. But was he sure of the man before him?

It seems that to get to a more serious level, Hilwa needs to consider it. He did not want to rush into a decision.

Especially to get married at a young age, he needs to prepare mentally.

Yes, Hilwa who will soon turn 21 years old. Reno is 25 years old. Indeed, their age is already worthy of marriage, but back again with mental preparation that they must prepare in advance.

" I need to ask first my father and mother, brother" Hilwa who did not want to make a decision without asking for approval from her parents.

" All right then. Brother will wait for your answer" Reno who finally understood Hilwa's feelings.

They kept chatting for a few hours. Until finally Hilwa's mother returned home.

Ms. Tini was a little surprised to find a man sitting on the porch with his daughter, who had just delivered her son to school and stopped by the market to buy vegetables.

Reno who saw her mother Hilwa come home, she immediately stood up and greeted Ms. Tini.

" Good morning, Mom? where did mom end up??" ask Reno

" eummm anu, mom out of school delivering her sister Hilwa"

" Why are you bringing vegetables?" Hilwa ended the conversation between her mother and Reno

" Yes, this mom immediately stopped by the market.all buy vegetables for a cooking afternoon"

" Kok, the guest is not in jamu anyway neng. Sorry son, there is no food here"

" it's okay Mom, this is more than enough, and actually I, already want permission to go home Mom"

" Hurry up, son, it's still morning. Wait a minute, let me cook first"

" Thank you Mom, I've had breakfast.I'm sorry Mom, if I interfere with your daughter's activities"

" don't kid, don't bother at all"

" In that case, I said to Mrs "Reno who re-appointed Ms. Tini's hand and kissed her palm.

" Neng, big brother came home first huh? God willing my brother will visit again here ". Reno rushed to his motorcycle.

Hilwa stared at Reno's departure with a hint of anxiety. Is the word right, when Reno spoke to propose to him?

He hopes Reno will not be disappointed and will continue his relationship. Because, Hilwa already likes Reno when they exchange chats on his social media account.

" Neng, is that a young man named Reno?" Ms. Tini who already knows the closeness of her daughter with someone.

" Yes Ma'am, she's Reno's sister Hilwa told me about with mom"

" It seems like he's a nice, polite young man. Are you guys seriously living it?"

" Yes Ma'am, even Reno's sister intends to propose to Hilwa as soon as possible"

" What do you think of Mom?" Hilwa asked her mother for advice on what she should decide .

" Mommy is up to you, you will live it. But you better think about it. Try to be wise first, ask for the same guidance of the Almighty" Ms. Tini who gave advice to her daughter.

" Good ma'am, God willing Hilwa will wake up in the middle of the night and ask for a clue, what is best for Hilwa in the future "

Bu Tini smiled, she did not expect that her daughter turned out to be big, even soon there will be someone proposing to her.
