Married plans


Hanan mengelihkan Tears dikelukan Angga. He was unable to stem his tears that accumulate in the fertilizer. 


"So good." Angga patted Hanan's wide back which trembled up and down. 


He did not expect the man to look happy when he met him. 


"Why don't you ask to be picked up, Pa?" said Hanan faltered. 


"If you ask to be picked up his name is not a surprise."


Angga took off his embrace wiping both Hanan's sturdy cheeks filled with tears. 


"From today onwards papa won't go far anymore. We will stay together with my mother and sister" Angga explained. 


Hanan nodded without a sound. That's what he's been waiting for all this time and it's finally coming soon. 


"Now you pray first, papa also does not pray. After that we have breakfast together," tell Angga to Hanan who still looks surprised. 


Angga came out of Hanan's room and returned to his room, but not according to his expectations who would be alone with Ayu, the woman came out. 


"Where are you going, honey? It's still too early." Angga pulling tip hijab Ayu. 


"Cooking, Mas. Later the children are late for school," Ayu replied shyly. 


His eyes skirted the room, afraid that someone would hear Angga's friendly call for him. 


"Auntie," cried Angga. A housekeeper approached him. 


"Welcome the handsome Aden," said the aunt to embrace Angga. 


Ayu jiggled at the behavior of those who embraced each other like mother and child. 


"Baunt cook for kids. I'll give you a bonus." Angga teased the aunt who was still hugging him. 


"Ready, Den." Aunty raised her hand a sign of respect then left Ayu and Angga who were still standing in front of the door. 


Just like the others, Adiba and Alifa were surprised to see the papa who was in the middle room. They stopped their steps to make sure it wasn't just a dream. 


"Why here, son? Salim papa first." Ayu led her two children to approach Angga. 


In contrast to Hanan who was immediately familiar, the two daughters of Ayu seemed timid, but still obeyed the orders of the mother. 


"Well remember the same papa?" goda Angga hugged Adiba and Alifa alternately. 


They nodded simultaneously. Then sit in an empty place next to Angga. 


"Papa has a gift for you." Pointing to the suitcase in the front room. He has not been able to unpack his luggage. 


"Later on, Mas. Let's eat first." Ayu approached Bu Winda who had witnessed the happiness of the son. 


"Aunty eat first! I have prepared porridge like aunty wishes yesterday," said Ayu. 


Miss Winda immediately moved from her seat to the dining room. 


While Ayu still persuaded Angga and Hanan who were busy playing flat objects respectively. 


"Snap, you'll be late. Mama also has an important job," Ayu said. 


Hanan put his phone on the table and followed Ayu, as well as Angga. 


"After this I'm home, Mom. You just rest first, must be tired." 


"Why go home, just stay here." Angga pulled the tip of Ayu's clothes until the woman staggered.


Ayu blushed in shame when Missa witnessed Angga's attitude that tends to be spoiled when nearby. 


"I have responsibilities in the store, Mas. There's no way I'm here to keep." Ayu smeared the bread with jam and placed it in front of Angga. 


Five years apart, it did not change Angga's attitude to Ayu. The man still shows his romance when near the future wife. 


"Sit down, I want to talk for a second," asked Angga to pull up the chair. 


Ayu sat down, her eyes looking at the serious-looking Angga. It was not usual for the man to speak in a pressing tone. 


"Now you don't have to work. Soon we will get married, and I can meet all the needs of you and the children. I don't mean to curb it, but I hope you understand" Angga asked expectantly. 


Ayu smiled. He appreciated Angga's request, but did not fully agree. Because, the work he is fighting for today is not just to make money, but also to add knowledge and insight. Showing the world that women can also be successful and not give a hand to the husband. 


In fact, Ayu opened a seminar for those who want to write like her. Supported by several book publishers, he successfully held in several cities. 


"I work from home, Mom. God will not interfere with personal matters. I also have a special clock for that, so don't worry" Ayu explained. Hope Angga understands himself who has already plunged in his world now. 


"True Ayu said, Ga. Let her have a career, which is important not to forget her duties as a wife," added Missa support. 


Angga nodded in agreement, albeit in a heavy heart. 


Ayu said goodbye to Miss Winda. Likewise with children who wear school uniforms. They boarded one car, this time it was not Hanan who was driving, but Angga. 


"This is your car, honey?" ask Angga while staring at a pretty good car. 


"Yes, why?" ask Ayu back. He immediately entered, inwardly guessing for sure Angga would protest. 


"Cool," answered Angga ostensibly in praise. In fact, in the heart of protest as Ayu alleged. 


"It's not as good as your car, but I'm comfortable because of my own sweat" Ayu explained. "At least I don't beg others," he continued, which made Angga nod his head. 


The car is traveling at medium speed. The first place they went to was Adiba and Alifa schools. Now they have moved to a more elite school than ever before. 


After that, she took Hanan to her school. 


"You go to school here, brother?" tanya Angga stared at the luxurious school from inside the car. 


"Yes, Pa. I'm getting into class soon." Hanan held up his backpack and walked out. Waving his hands towards Ayu and Angga alternately. 


"Remember! Go home to wait for mama, do not go home alone," Ayu said in a high voice. 


Seen from afar a girl approached Hanan. Judging from his attitude the girl was a close friend of the man. 


"Is that Hanan's girlfriend?" tanya Angga. 


"No, Mas. Hanan had promised not to date before he finished college," Ayu replied shut the windshield. He was sure Hanan would obey him. 


"When are we planning to get married? I won't wait any more." Angga reminded about their marriage which has been postponed five years. 


Ayu's face suddenly turned pale. From the bottom he had not thought about it and remained focused on the children. 


"As much as you go, I'll go along" Ayu replied hesitantly, but tried to be sure that it was the best option. 


"Alright then I'll set the time. At most another month."


Ayu swallowed her saliva with great difficulty.
