Thanks For Your Love
Chasing Restu

Tommy drove back to Rome. A pair of lovers who have just combined love enjoy their happy times. Along the way their hands intertwined. A smile that never left his lips.

Tommy has decided whatever the obstacles ahead he will continue to fight for his love. He no longer wants to fail. It was enough that he wasted the woman who once filled his life. Married because of his own mistakes, he used to think that marriage was a game but after experiencing his first failure he deeply regretted it. But he was grateful that God brought him together, opened his heart and healed him through Rome the girl he initially hated so much that he eventually became very much in love. It is true that the saying "Don't hate people too much because eventually you will love them. Hate and love are so thin the difference."

Tommy who never believed in such absurd things finally experienced it himself.

Tommy's car stops right in the courtyard of Nasution's beautiful Mansion. He greatly admired the uniqueness of the Mansion of his future wife's parents. Rome invited Tommy into the magnificent building.

"Assalamualaikum–." Roma and Tommy say hello as they enter their home.

"Waalaikumsalam–." I heard the answer from inside the house.

The wide smile on the lips of the lovers disappeared instantly when he saw Togar sitting in the family room with Robert.

"Why the hell did he keep coming, make me dizzy." Roma looked at Tommy and smiled.

"Eeh there's a guest, who's Boru?" togar asked as Roma kissed the back of his hand.

"Who is the man who came with the Romans?" Robert stared cynically at Tommy.

"Friends Badi Pak, who Badi told me yesterday just came now sir."

"Badi, who's Badi?" Tommy confused himself.

"Ooh, please sit down."

"Thank you Om–."

Tommy nodded then approached Togar and kissed the back of his hand and sat down on a different sofa to Robert's.

"Oh, what's his name?" tanya Togar is friendly.

"Tommy Om." Tommy with a smile on his face answered briefly.

"This introduces Paribanya the Badi, his name is Robert."

"Tommy–." Tommy held out his hand.

"Robert–." lazily Robert was forced to welcome the hand that was filling it must be his rival.

Togar smiled at Tommy he was so happy to see Tommy who was so polite. Just got to know him but Togar is already comfortable and happy. He judged Tommy's body movements to be so polite. Very rarely met there was a man who came and immediately kissed the back of his hand. Even Robert did not do that. Usually when meeting with fellow Batak men who have not known each other usually they just shake hands. But unlike Tommy, Togar felt Tommy treated him like his own family.

"Why would Tommy go home with Boruku?"

"So Badi now Boru what else?"

"Drums?" Tommy scratched his non-itchy head. Roma realized that Tommy was confused.

"Boru is the same as Putri Bang, the call for the daughter of the batak family."

"Oh–." Tommy nodded his head. "Keep Badi what else?"

"Hehe, the story is long. The point is I'm called in this house Badi Bang."

"Kok, I just found out Ban? If Iban is called Badi?" Robert who was silent at first spoke up.

"Because it's just the ones who call him so bere." said Togar and Robert only said "Oh–." while nodding his head.

Tommy glanced at Roma wanting to ask the terms he had just heard and it felt strange to him.

"It's a fellow brother's call, if bere's a call to a nephew. Anyway, that's Bang. Pokonya many more Batak terms that will make Abang's head dizzy. I was the original batak dizzy person, especially Abang who is not batak. hehe." Rome smiles.

"Well, whatever it is, you can learn slowly if there is an intention." Berta came from the kitchen to bring Tommy a drink.

"Tante–." Tommy approached Berta and kissed the back of his hand.

The wider Togar's smile when he saw Tommy's politeness.

"Son Tommy's working with Badi? How can we go home together?" Berta repeated Togar's unanswered question because it was cut off by the explanation of the terms.

"Not Aunty, MY FUTURE WIFE is a doctor if I'm not an Aunt." Tommy emboldened himself to shoot the target. Because he saw Robert's displeasure at her.

"Oo, already have a future wife anyway. Where's the candidate?" Berta still did not understand that what Tommy meant was his own daughter.

"At Citra Hospital Medistra Aunt–."

Uhuk... Uhuk.

"Unfortunately, it's delicious that he admitted that Rome was his future wife. Hey man, don't be a fan of yours here. You won't be able to take Rome from me. I'm more entitled and more deserving to be Rome's husband."

"Why are you bere? slow down, don't rush to choke you!" Berta patted Robert on the back.

"So this kid Tommy's wife-to-be is a partnership with Auntie's son?"

"Alamak the Mamak kok relapsed bloonnya. Make it a shame Mak–" Inner Rome

"It's not a Auntie's friend, but it's a Auntie's Borunya that I want to make my wife." Tommy clasped Roma's hand. But Rome let go softly. He felt awkward and embarrassed in front of his parents let alone Robert there. "It's also if Om and Aunt agree. Because Roma said before I came and asked for the same blessing Om and Auntie he would not accept my proposal Auntie." Tommy told me the truth.

"Gue must get the blessing of his parents tonight as well. If the blessing problem of his brothers can be followed shortly." Inner Tommy.

"Well, Bah, Bah– nga serious be Pak (Udahsadah Pak)" Berta told her husband. I did not expect that Tommy would be as brave as it was to say the point immediately. There's no cue and Tommy is also the first time to come to his house and they also don't know who Tommy really is.

"What's so bad, you're sometimes overrated times mak." Togar shook his head to see his wife who was shocked by Tommy's words.

Robert realized that his bones already liked Tommy.

"So how's Om, Auntie?" Tommy was half pushy and urgent.

"What the fuck are you lae, come-coming urge my bones so. Origin lae know ya–" Robert stood up and began to tease his waist. "I have proposed to Roma before and I'm here waiting for the answer."

"Hadeehhh why runyam gini anyway?" Inner Rome.

"Relax Bro, don't insist on dong. I'll just ask the Parents of my LOVER." Tommy tried to remain polite in front of the Roman Parents but still emphasis ended his speech, he did not want to hurt Roma again.

"Light bere first. Sit down for a bere." Togar began to be unhappy at the behavior of his nephew. "As you know, all those decisions are in your Pariban's hands. We as parents can only support their choices. Because who will live his household later will be my Boru is his, not me bere." Togar gave understanding to his nephew wisely but still Robert felt his bones were more in favor of his competitor.

"Answer Boru, don't ever hang the feelings of men, and make you bere whatever the decision of this drill you have to accept the chest room. Not so even you are as knowledgeable as I am still you are bere us. And you need to make decisions that are in your heart and your choices not out of coercion." Berta handed all the decisions back to Rome.

Roma are very confused this is a decision that he must take. Although the actual agreement with Robert was not that day but the next day but because Robert had already touched him and his parents had also asked him so inevitably he had to make a decision.

Rome took her breath and exhaled her slowly. "I'm sorry for Bang Tommy and my Pariban. Iban, I honestly can't accept Iban's proposal. I've considered Iban the same as my other brothers. We are Iban's brothers and even samudar dope hita (One blood is still ours). I appreciate the courage Iban came here to meet directly with Mr. Mamak even in front of Abang-abang ku Iban said Iban's intention. I should have answered it tomorrow, Ban, but since it's Iban's request, I'll answer it now. Please also apologize to Namboru and Amangboru, because whoever my life partner will be, I am still Parumaen they will never change."

"Why do you prefer him over me, Ban?" Robert was heartbroken that his proposal had been rejected by Rome.

"Why did I choose him? Because I love him, Ban. Maybe if Iban came and approached me long before I knew him it could be that I accepted Iban's proposal, but Iban came at a bad time Iban. Iban came when my heart chose him to be my Imam."

Tommy was delighted and happy to hear the confession from Rome.

"Good Lae." Robert extended his hand congratulating Tommy.

Robert realized what Rome said was true all this time he just harbored his feelings without trying to say or approach Rome.

"Thank you." Tommy welcomes Robert's hand.

"Bang Tommy don't be happy just yet.–"

Degs...

"What else is the deck? Don't be weird and make me ashamed in front of your parents?"

"As our agreement Brother must get the blessing first from Father Mamakku and to four new brothers I want to be Brother's wife."

Togar and Berta smiled at Roma, they were proud of their daughter. It was not only the blessing of those that Tommy had to get but from his four brothers as well. Surely Tommy will not be easy to get the blessing of the B-Brother.

"So how did Om, Auntie did Om and Auntie approve of our relationship?" Tommy again asked if he had the blessing or not.

"It looks like Tommy has to fight for the blessing of B-Brother first new Om and Aunt will bless your relationship" said Togar

"Who else is B-BROTHER?"

"To four of my brothers–"

Rome sees a change in the look on Tommy's face that fails to get the blessing of the Roman parents.

"Spirit ya dear–! The spirit of pursuing our blessing." whispered Roma in Tommy's ear.

You do not realize the preoccupation of Nulis is early in the morning.
