The Selfishness of a Father

Flash Back's

Arifin and his wife visit his mother Arifin's house in Jogja, he wants to tell that his eldest daughter Kinar will let go of the inherent single period for so long, he said, but Astrea was worried whether her mother-in-law would approve of this marriage? What would her mother-in-law respond to, if she found out that her favorite granddaughter was married to her own cousin?

"I'm worried pa?"astrea said by looking at Arifin the husband who had the idea to match her daughter with his own niece

"Why should you worry?"

"Mama sure, surely mother will not approve of our plan pa"

"It is precisely that we go there to tell mother, our daughter Kinar so we are entitled to marry her ma"

"But not with papa's niece either"

"Didn't my mother agree with this match?"

"So it was pa, but after we wanted to meet mom, mom got scared"

"What are you afraid of?"

"Your mother pa, papa will know that Kinar from a small mother who takes care of her, of course, the mother also participates in giving an opinion about this matchmaking pa"

"We'll see what I'm going to say about this matchmaking"

No sound came out of their mouths, Arifin held her forehead while thinking, which in told her his wife was indeed there, her, but he had already agreed to the wedding plan of his daughter with his nephew, and only three days given by Tatit as his older brother who will soon be his besan.

As soon as she reached her mother's house, Arifin went down with her wife, Astrea entered her in-laws' house a little hesitant, although she as a daughter-in-law, Astrea was so disinclined towards her in-laws, she said, because Nek Popon never scolded her.

"Mother"Call Astrea by hugging Nek Popon's body"Good mom?"astrea asked as she rubbed the back of her mother-in-law

"Alhamdulillah be healthy"by letting go of his embrace"You alone"

"As you can see" Astrea replied as she spread out her hands, showing that she was fine as well

"What wind brings you to visit your mother's house?"Nek Popon asked with a look towards his son who was still standing still"Sit down Arifin, why are you standing?"

"Yes Ma'am"Arifin approached her mother

"Is there anything important that made you come here?"

"My wife and I haven't been to my mother's house in a long time" Arifin replied, staring at his wife

"mom sure, the purpose of the two of you here is not just his intention "

"Why are you talking like that?"

"Arifin, I'm your mother, I'm sure you know what your arrival means"

"The first one is because we miss mom so much"

"Not because of anything else?"ask Grandma Popon full of investigation, mother is a very important and crucial figure in the eyes of her child, the role of mother like a nurse, taking care of you when you are sick, and the role of a mother is like a nurse, looking after you when you can't sleep and cry, raising you and looking after you, all of it can't be replaced by anything on this earth and can't be compared to anything. A mother's love for a child is beyond anything in the world. So that you know the feelings of mother will not be lied to.

"I believe that a mother's instincts are very sharp" Arifin said

"Is Kinar okay?"

"Thank God, how much the mother missed her"Arifin and Astrea looked at each other

"There's really something I want to say to mom"

"Tell me, because I'm sure you're coming so suddenly and without telling your mother this first, there must be something very important"

"The light will marry Mom"

"Really?"replied Nek Pandon with sparkling eyes

"Yes Ma'am"

"Who's the lucky guy who's been editing her?"

"Irsyad Ma'am"heard the word Irsyad, Grandpa Popon patted his chest a few times, arriving his chest was so painful and his hearing was reduced

"You mean Irsyad Malik Ibrahim your own nephew so Fin?"

"Yes Ma'am"Astrea started in Landa's fear

"How could you marry your daughter to your own niece!?"The volume of the popon nek sound increases to 1000 volts

"Mbak Tatit's the first one to have this idea, ma'am"

"And you agreed to it just like that?"

"I think what's wrong, ma'am"

"There's nothing wrong, but do you know, the marriage relationship between the two families who do have a bond before it will be very complicated son?"Nek Popon was not happy with the decision of the two children"Is there male sex in Jakarta has begun to become extinct, so you marry your daughter to Irsyad?"Arifin is silent by playing her finger"You can match your daughter with anyone, but not with Irsyad"he objected

"But we've agreed on it, ma'am"

"Without telling your mother this first!?"nek Popon asked slightly angrily, Astrea did not dare to look at her in-laws, she just lowered her head"Did Kinar agree with the decision of the two of you?"

"So Kinar disagrees, ma'am"

"Keep you forcing her without thinking about her feelings?"Arifin was speechless"Don't be too selfish being Arifin's parents, the one going through this marriage is Kinar isn't you?"

"But Kinar agreed Ma'am"

"Because it had to? I have memorized the nature of your daughter, Arifin, she will not dispute any of your decisions. If the marriage is not what you expect and he is not happy, who will be responsible?"nek popon smiled cynically, all this time he had never been angry with his two children, but this concerned the happiness of his grandchildren"Have you thought if one of your children became a widow, if one of your children became a widow, because he's unhappy with his marriage?"Astrea was so shocked that she looked at her mother-in-law and husband in turn

"Love can grow as time goes by" ma'am"

"That Fin, Kinar and Irsyad were different, he was born in a modern era of all generations"nek Popon began to get emotional"How did you explain everything to Fin?"

"Kinar and Irsyad's wedding is in three days' time" Ma'am"

"Oh my God!"grandma Popon's getting surprised"Well, is that fast? Although Irsyad is your nephew, you don't know him too far, he used to live in a European country"Nek Popon sneered at his pained temple"Are you really familiar with Irsyad? Even though Kinar and Irsyad are cousins, the mother is very sure if they have not yet recognized each other's nature. Free mom explained to you Arifin, now do what you want to do, but remember if Kinar is unhappy with his marriage, never regret"Nak Popon said as he passed leaving his son and daughter-in-law. Still vividly remembered in his memory, how the time that Arifin left Kinar on her, should the grandmother of Popon have the right to the marriage of Kinar, Kinar, he was just not willing if his favorite grandson would not be happy with his marriage.
