The day we were waiting for finally came in time.
This morning, at nine o'clock in the morning, Richard was sitting in a special chair that was reserved for him, opposite the two seats in front of him, and one seat each on his left right.
The seat next to him was empty.
And the prospective occupant of the chair was a woman he loved very much.
Who will soon be tied up in a marriage bond that soon he will run the procession of his qobuli ijab.
"Stretched, Richard" said Pakde Parno with a mischievous smile.
Richard chuckled in shame.
Does it look so good, right?
"Happened yet?" ask Parno again, deliberately teasing him.
The man was already sitting across from Richard, positioning himself as Nawang's guardian later.
"Here." replied Richard with a shy smile.
"What's it like?" ask Hardi who is sitting in the witness seat.
"He?" asked Richard in a daze.
The three men who accompanied Richard there giggled amusedly.
"What are you doing? Step unboxing or ngapalin ijab qobul?" tanya om Hardi is still accompanied by his kekehan and another soft look.
Richard could only be embarrassed.
Cook yes he wants to say already mengapalin step unboxing right?
Even if it is not necessary to use the poultice, it will be smooth later. A little bit warmed up yesterday, hihihi.....
He even knew which spots could lead Nawang rolled by burning desire.
We'll get it all done, honey. No pauses, no limits.
Unknowingly a little smile of Richard appeared on his face.
"Well, have thought hak'e hak'e aja nih like it." whispered Pakde Parno on om Hardi who still can very perfectly hear it.
The two people were increasingly chuckling amusedly at him.
Richard just looked down embarrassed, as if ABG's son was caught watching a blue movie by his father.
Malunya.....
"Don't forget to pray sunah two rakaat first before breaking the fast. Let your filial work be blessed later." whispered om Hardi while still glancing meaningfully at him.
Richard was embarrassed.
He remembers talking about the two rakaat sunah prayer with Nawang.
And he was determined to do that later, before they did everything.
Everything will start right, and they will go right until the end.
It was his and Nawang's promise as they enjoyed one afternoon in the plaza, a few days after Richard proposed to Nawang.
The two of them sat on the grass at the edge of the square watching the stars and the frenzied Darren scurrying around playing bubble balloons from the soapy water.
Occasionally the two boys approached his parents only to ask for snacks whose sellers were scattered around where they were sitting.
As if intentionally giving space to his parents to talk more intensely, Bintang and Darren always enjoy snacks in their hands a bit away in front of their parents.
"There's a shadow, don't you think they're sisters? Beautiful girls like you. One is not a papa." asked Richard while staring at Nawang teasingly and expectantly.
Nawang simply chuckled without being able to hide the reddened face color.
"Here's the real one. Only after making your request really" said Nawang afterwards.
"Is there really a marriage?" asked Richard grinningly as he immediately realized the answer to the question that had already slid from his mouth.
"Yes there is. Maybe not intentionally either." replied Nawang.
"Don't you mean intentionally?" richard began to wonder.
"Yes if the marriage really from the beginning has tried to do the real thing. Ijab qobul already true, but after that sometimes forget or do not know." answered Nawang provoked curiosity Richard deeper.
"What is the end of ijab qobul?" ask Richard kepo.
Instead of running out ijab qobul continue to usually make a riot in bed huh?
"You are just searching on google used up ijab qobul it kudu ngapain if you do not want the same ustadz." replied Nawang while chuckling.
Out of curiosity, Richard immediately played with his phone to find answers to his curiosity.
His smile was etched while reading the results of that search engine.
There are also two rakaat sunah prayers before they are united for the first time.
"This means?" asked Richard while showing his search results in the search engine earlier.
Nawang nodded after a quick read.
"I will definitely read that prayer for you. Ask you to pray sunah too. Read the prayer before entering, and read the prayer before my charge comes out" Richard said with a shy smile.
There was not a single prayer that he had memorized.
Fortunately, the prayers were short.
There is still plenty of time to memorize it before the day H arrives to practice all those prayers.
"Thank you for your noble thoughts, Papa." said Nawang smilingly glaring at him.
Richard laughed when he heard Nawang call him Papa.
Very cute as it sounds.
"Ready-ready, Mas. Mr. Penguhan Rawuh (coming)." om Hardi's voice returned Richard's consciousness to the atmosphere he was facing at this time.
Somehow the friendly and sweet smile of the two people who came and were greeted with very friendly faces by everyone there felt like a knight smile with a sword drawn towards him.
Even when the pengulu did, his hands trembled with no control at all.
It's a shame, Ric....Ric's.....
Even then all the talk and all the sounds around him none of them could come to his ears properly.
Everything sounded buzzing and unclear to him.
Until then one moment returned his consciousness again in full when om Hardi patted his arm with a smile.
"Beautiful to your future wife" said Om Hardi, looking in one direction unconsciously followed by her eyes.
And there, with a slow step and a bowed look, he saw a beautiful woman, who was so beautiful, even very beautiful with a white kebaya looks so shining stepped closer to him with two women on his left right who after careful attention turned out to be bude Darmi and a person he knew named Dinda.
Mashaal......
Richard's chest was pounding irregularly.
His breath was filled with admiration.
Especially when the woman was getting closer and she could see more clearly.
Really manglingi (looks very different from the usual day).
"You are beautiful." whispered Richard softly as Nawang was sitting beside him.
The woman just smiled stiffly, not answering her words.
"Is everything ready?" a question from the ruler was again able to destroy the heart of Richard who had been like containing a roller coaster.
"Mas Richard is ready?" ask the ruler to Richard who is now starting to straighten his body and breathe as long as possible in order to restore his concentration as best as possible.
It's a sacred moment in his life, and he doesn't want any flaws in this moment just because he can't focus.
"Ready, Sir!" richard answered with a strong.
And the next minute his hand had grasped tightly the hand of Parno and said the qobul with a single, flawless breath.
Very smooth and clear.
Until the voice of the SAH sounded from around him so rumbling in his eardrum.
Thank goodness......
Until then the next moment is Nawang kissed her hand as a sign of first devotion to her as a wife.
And his first task as a husband he did afterwards, which was to kiss his wife's forehead and pray while the beautiful shouldered head was still bowed in front of him.
The touch of his wife's crown and solemnly he whispered the prayer he had been making these few days.
*Allahuma inni as'aluka min khoirihaa wa khoirimaa jabaltaha alaihi wa a'udzubika min syarriha wa syarrimaa jabaltaha 'alaih.
(O Allah, I ask You for the good of him and the good that You have set on him. And I take refuge in You from his ugliness and the evil You have set upon him*).
"Thank you, Mas." whispered Nawang after Richard finished his prayer.
His eyes looked glassy and his lips trembled withholding a puddle of tears that was clearly visible in his eyes.
Richard smiled gently at her, hoping that happy tears would not roll at this moment.
"I love you." whispered Richard before the two again presented their seats to the KUA officers to sign their marriage documents.
