Waiting for the Love of the Country
Chapters 17. Prospective Mother Persit

Dinner was held with a warm family atmosphere. Mother Syifa felt sorry for her daughter. While the others were chatting and laughing, Gisya busied himself to help prepare dinner. Even his two best friends, were unaware of it. They are dissolved in their happiness.

"Keep your heart, Fa. InshaAllah someday Caca will find his happiness." said Umma Nadia.

"I'm so happy for you, I'm just worried about my daughter. Look, he's busying himself. I know what my daughter looks like" said Mother Syifa.

Syauqi heard everything that his Bund had said, even though he was currently listening to their conversation.

"Mother don't worry, Uqi will make Teteh happy" Syauqi said in his heart.

Syauqi looked at Fahri who was near Gisya. Syauqi wanted to find out if Fahri had any feelings of love towards her brother.

"Don't go join the others." asked Syauqi.

After Fahri leaves Gisya, Syauqi instead pulls him out of the Shop. He invited Fahri to speak at the Coffee Shop on the side of the road.

"Well, why bring your brother here?" ask Fahri.

"There's something Uqi should talk about with Brother,"

"What's wrong? Looks like you're having a problem" guess Fahri.

Syauqi took a breath, then exhaled it. He started telling stories.

"First, Tea Caca was a jolly girl. Even every day Uqi and Teteh could argue 3x a day. But ever since Dad died, he wasn't the Caca Tea that Uqi knew. She turned into a meek girl and only spoke as necessary. Voluntarily, she accepted Dad's request to marry A Zayn. Whenever the wedding date was set, A Zayn would ask Tea Caca to postpone their marriage. Yesterday was the third time. Apparently not only that, Caca Tea even cheated. Though all this time, in his life Teh Caca has never been in contact with any man." shirih Syauqi who told Gisya.

Fahri just fell silent, it turns out that what Gisya experienced was not easy. Fahri believes that Gisya's heart wound is much deeper.

"It turns out that deep is your heart's wound. I think I'm starting to fall for you. But I'm afraid I'm gonna make you hurt again." Fury Fahri in the Heart.

Syauqi watched the pensive Fahri.

"Did you like Caca Tea?" ask Syauqi who made Fahri digress.

"The first time I saw Caca was at the Red Light. I thought she was a strange girl. He enjoyed the rain cheerfully, while the others took shelter. Then we met again at the Padang Uda Kris Restaurant. He began to get curious about Caca. Until finally, Brother and he both became victims of betrayal. Honestly, I like Caca. Seeing his firmness in attitude, his patience in dealing with problems. It makes you like him a lot." Fahri revealed his heart.

"Didn't you intend to be in a relationship with Teh Caca?" ask Syauqi.

Fahri looked at Syauqi, he saw a lot of hope in his eyes.

"Abang and Caca are still in the process of healing our heart wounds. Brother doesn't want to, Caca just thinks Brother made him an escape. Let everything go as it should. Brother was also afraid, if later it would hurt Caca's heart back. Because of Abang's work as a State Servant who is obliged to prioritize the duties of the State in Brother's life." Fahri on Syauqi.

"May Allah give Brother and Tea Caca the best happiness." sincere do'a Syauqi.

Gisya who had prepared the dinner was astonished because Syauqi and Fahri were not there.

"Bun, where's Uqi?" whispers of Gisya to his mother.

"Eh, don't know Ca. Mother anteng chat daritadi with Umma. Try looking outside," said Mother Syifa.

Gisya went out looking for Syauqi, he saw his sister was having a serious conversation with Fahri.

"Uqii, eat first!" gisya shouted at Syauqi.

"Bang, let's eat first." take Syauqi.

"Just Qi first, besides your brother just call you" said Fahri.

"Ciee Abang crammed," ledek Syauqi then approached Gisya.

"Well, are you alone? Bang Fahri not invited?" astonished Gisya who saw Uqi walking alone.

"Said Brother was not called, so did not join" whispered Uqi leaving Gisya.

"Dih, that's it. Like a child," grumbled Gisya and approached Fahri.

"Bang, let's eat first! I've been waiting for the other one." take Gisya to Fahri.

"Kirain Abang mah not invited, the person called just Uqi aja" said Fahri then left Gisya.

"Yee, that's army time. Even go again!" gerutu Gisya's.

Seeing Fahri enter with Gisya, making their ignorant souls thrash. Moreover, Gisya entered with a bent face.

"Well, that's what I've been waiting for, too! Why was his face bent like that Ca?" ask Febri.

"It seems that it failed to give up longing" Yuliana chirped.

"Well, so Nak Fahri already has Prospective Mother Persit too?" ask Mr. Burhan who is Andi's parents.

"Kalo Uqi with Mother of Green Light, is it not Bun?" Ledek Syauqi directly glared at Gisya.

"That's an eye for Neng!" chirps Jafran.

"You fit well, not just filing, Ri?" mr. Burhan.

"Just do what's best for us Om" replied Fahri briefly.

Gisya was silent at hearing Fahri's words.

"Let's sit down, he said he was not going to eat" whispered Fahri.

"Sit Ca! Even bengong, take food for Bang Fahri," said Yuliana.

The nervous Gisya sat down and took food for Fahri. After that, he realized what he was doing. He became the center of everyone's attention.

"Nih, you take your own food," nervous Gisya who made everyone hold back his laughter.

"Stage, just take the side dish Ca. Count the exercises." Temptation Fahri who makes Gisya cheeks blush.

They eat very well, Gisya cuisine is indeed very good. They left no food. After they finished eating, they continued the conversation with Andi's family.

"So where's your marriage filing preparation?" ask Mr. Burhan.

"The letters from the office are all done. Dinda's birth certificate, diploma, SKCK have also been.

After that, we can continue to the next stage, namely Mental Coaching, Facing a new unity we can get Married Civil" Andi explained.

"Busett has so many requirements" said Yuliana.

"Yes that's so Nak Yuli, if married to a State Servant. Someday also Nak Uqi will experience it." said Mr. Burhan.

"Wedding with the pilot, there are also requirements that not Pan?" Andi asked Jafran.

"Yes, Om also wants to know," said Mr. Burhan.

"There is no Om if the requirements, just if the prospective wife may be the same preparation. Mentally prepare, because the Pilot will depend on flying hours Om. Like me, how many times a week can fly. It will certainly rarely go home, especially the distance Bandung-Jakarta. Sometimes I also have to settle down for a few days in the Destination City. The risk of work is also very high. This is about to get married, I have to take the cut intermittently. So can't help with the preparation." Jafran.

"Yes we both pray for each other, let everything be launched and given safety. You also pray that Nak Fahri can immediately submit." said Mr. Burhan who made Fahri choke on his drink.

Gisya patted Fahri's back slowly.

"Then drink Bismillah first" said Gisya.

"Will I have Bismillah, Dek?" Goda Fahri's.

"Dih, sayin even menggeledek so." annoyed Gisya.

"What about seriously?" ask Fahri.

Gisya was silent speechless. Fahri's words were interpreted Gisya as a joke.

"Yee, Caca is daydreaming!" jafran Tegur.

"What the hell is Jafraann, just disturb!" pissed Gisya.

"That you asked Bang Fahri, if it is like being married to Bismillah how? Accepted not yet?" chirps Jafran.

"Thank you, the prestige is very sad to say yes," Yuliana worried to Gisya.

"Loh, you guys are talking again. Why go mad at me?" annoyed Gisya left them.

"You guys! It's too late, Ah!" upset Mother Syifa then followed Gisya.

They feel guilty, especially Fahri. He is going after Gisya and his mother. It turned out that Gisya and her Mother were instead sitting in the Garden not far from the Shop. Fahri chose to listen to the chatter of the mother and child behind the tree.

"Dear, they're just kidding, kid. Do not enter the heart. Caca will know what their nature is like." said Mother Syifa won her daughter.

"Caca's not mad at them Bun. Caca just shy, Caca baper the same talk of Bang Fahri. Caca fears Bun, Caca fears falling in Bang Fahri's charms too deep. Now, Caca will give everything the same to Allah Bun." - Gisya.

"Son, Caca is Mother's only daughter. Mother understands your feelings that are still hurt. But if it's not revealed, how will Fahri know how you feel? Mother see the seriousness of Fahri in saying, it's just that you are still equally injured" said Mother Syifa.

"Then from that, Bun. Caca believes everything in God, if it is Bang Fahri Caca's soul mate then we will be united" said Gisya.

"Bring him in every prayer of your night, always say his name in the do'a. If you are a match, she can immediately make you her Mother Persit," said Mother Syifa in a loud voice because she saw Fahri hiding behind a tree.

"What a Mother! It's so bad to say, shame to see passers-by" grumbled Gisya.

"I'll say your name in my Do'I. I will pray Istikharah, if I have the answer. I'll direct the submission to the union. Look forward to me, Gisya Kayla Nursalsabila" Inner Fahri.
