Anin arrived at her home after discussing her matters to Franda. At least, the burden in his mind was slightly lifted, even though there was no way out of his troubles with Joseph. But suddenly the center of his mind was in front of the fence. Anin who was still next to her car, immediately opened the gate of her house.
"What's up, Mas??"
"Asshrink, Anin..."
Yusuf said with a peaceful smile to Anin.
Anin blushed a little embarrassed, embarrassed because the first thing he said was not a sentence of greeting and shame because he still stuck away seeing a smile from Joseph.
"Goddessalam, Mas..."
"I'm sorry Mas, I can't tell Mas Yusuf to come in because there's only me at home".
"Papa kog. I'm only here for a minute anyway, kog".
"..."
"I'm here because I just want to say this..."
"...I hope you'll wait. Because I never messed with what I was talking about before. The problem of Mother who has not given her blessing to me, do not you think. Let me fix this problem. Consider this a test for me, because I already mean the son of a married person to me".
I'll always wait for you, Mom..
"If so, I go straight home. Assalamualaikum..."
"Vaalaikumsalam. Ati-ati, I..."
Joseph just nodded. Hearing the greeting reply and the words 'Ati-ati, Mas' from Anin, somehow made his mood calmer. He did see that Anin was just as tired as he was thinking of a way to conquer his Mother's heart, but at that moment he thought that his decision to marry Anin was getting stronger.
After the car driven by Yusuf had disappeared from his vision, Anin immediately closed the gate and was surprised by the presence of Arwi behind him. When the boy was in his house, he heard what Joseph had just told him.
"Serious brother Anin??"
Arwi put on a 200% curious face. He saw his older sister look tired but there was a sense of happiness visible from his eyes.
Anin who didn't know what her sister said just slit her eyebrows. There was no rain, no wind, suddenly he was behind him.
"Loe didn't go to college??"
Anin turned the question to Arwi whose direction was completely different. Arwi who heard it only let out a rough sigh.
"For example, mbak. It's malem. Where's the lecture at this hour??"
"But usually you're only here on Sunday just like Monday doang. Others are in Jogja".
"Gue's off for the week, ma'am. I came here this morning. I'm running at home again".
Arwi does have a spare key from Anin's house, because of her habit that sometimes likes to sleep at her brother's house because she does not want to hear her mother's nag about how lazy she is to take a bath during the holidays.
"Not that time... This is my problem. Loe don't make it difficult for your pocket money just because you're pretentious to care about me".
Anin tries to make a joke for Arwi. But the joke was successful so the fried beans are crispy.
"Gue seriously mbak?? Do you really want to marry Mas Yusuf??"
Arwi now holds both sides of Anin's shoulder height only until her chin with face is equal. So when High School, when his friends saw Anin was at home, they always thought that his brother was his sister. Perhaps for this one, Anin should be grateful, because in addition to her lacking height, her face also never changed. It can be proven from the photo of Anin's diploma. Only his S1 diploma is different. Anine is different because it uses lipstick when photographing.
"Gue is serious. Loe should nemenin Mommy when rich gini..."
Now, replace Arwi who does not understand the meaning of Anin's words.
"Kog loe instead support Mommy?? Do you want to give it up??"
"Free deh loe majored in Psychology, if you are slow rich gini".
Arwi is studying Psychology. Counting to treat his disappointment that did not enter FK because he himself phobia the same blood.
"I'm a psychic..."
Reply Arwi who is upset whenever there are people who think it should know everyone's feelings even if only limited to seeing.
Anin only chuckled because she managed to make her sister annoyed like that.
"Honestly, I still hope that Mother will love our blessing.. That's all I think about now".
"So you really want to marry Mas Yusuf??"
Anin simply nodded in response to a question from Arwi.
"Waiting is hard. Especially if the waiting is definitely in front of us, but we can not get what we are waiting for. It's harder than that..."
I don't know since when Arwi knew what Anin had been harboring all this time, but as long as she knew that as well, Arwi faithfully became a good listener. Even being the most effective solution for Anin. Yes, open personal business hours before actually becoming a professional with his client is his own brother. Hehe...
"You know very well about me..."
"Yeah mbak.. I've been classy times if the problem is rich gini..."
"So??"
Now Anin wanted to listen to the continuation of what Arwi had thought for her.
"If you still continue with this crazy plan, I have to admit, if you're really the PATHETIC guy I've ever met".
Anin only smiled hearing those words from Arwi.
"Gue is also inget, if love is not only for people to be happy, but at the same time for people to be able to avoid pain when they have love. I just hope you'll soon find that happiness, mbak..."
Arwi Imbuh.
"Gue was happy when I knew my love was for him..."
Arwi took her hand off Anin's shoulder. She knew that her brother was not easy to change hearts looking for another love. But he also did not understand why Anin was so difficult to let go of the person who had actually made him tired of heart and mind. But after a long time he waited, was this a fair enough reply for Anin. He was reunited with the person he was waiting for and was to be married to, but in reality he had to be patient again to wait for his return.
What fate have You prepared for Anin, O God??
Inner Arwi saw that Anin had already left and walked in front of him now.
"Sir, you're out of J.CO?? share dong..."
Now Arwi has changed to her normal mode with Anin. He was indeed too spoiled if he was with Anin. Even if her brother had already snapped at her so as not to be spoiled for her, after all it would only make her behave more spoiled and certainly it made Anin choose to give up.
"Remember. Slovenly loe..."
"Loe hasn't taken a shower yet..."
If the current time, who has taken a shower when just returned from the office.
Arwi immediately seized the box which must have been a dozen doughnuts that had been waiting in line to be in his mouth. He no longer cared about any of Anin's words. He was already too invulnerable and too memorized by what Anin said at a time like this. And that just makes him happier.
"Eh, but don't you think you yourself ever get the pain of love, right??"
Those words successfully made Arwi glare at him, but the one who got the gaze was just chuckling. Didn't expect that his sister could be heartbroken as well. Heartbreak in marriage again. Haha...
***
Anin now prefers to busied herself. She is again PMS and Anin is famous for her swing mood which is quite significant. Especially on the first day, he could scold anyone who made a mistake in front of him. Even though it's as small as mustard seeds. It was enough to make his energy up to make himself yell at anyone. In the morning, he quite snapped at Arwi who was still at home, even though to his knowledge, Arwi should be in Jogja because there is a lecture schedule. But Arwi does not criticize him and after finding out that he is late for the morning lecture, he turns to get angry because he feels Anin did not wake him. At the office, he received a file that did not suit his wishes. Before he vented it to the employee who provided the file, it would be nice if Franda handled it. Franda was already too immune to Anin's swing mood like this.
Lunch time, as is customary. Because today he does not pray, he chose to listen to music and the volume is quite loud. Fortunately, the room is soundproofed, so as loud as possible the sound will not be heard outside. But this time, Anin looked different than usual. Yes, he listened to music while following the dance in the Music Video of the song. The choice is right, a song owned by New Girl Group, BlackPink – BOOMBAYAH. The successful HipHop music genre makes itself imitate the movements in the video that he plays. It is not perfect, but enough for an Anin who daily only watch the files and reports of his company's projects.
It turned out that on the sidelines of the window that was not tightly closed, there was someone who saw the incident with his trademark smile. JOSEPH. Yes, Joseph saw the behavior of his future wife. Franda who after the prayer chose to return to her desk because no one accompanied her lunch could not do much to save the image of her best friend in the presence of her future husband. Franda did let Anin enjoy the flow of music that she turned before she went downstairs to pray. But now, he seemed to want to throw away his face to see the behavior of Anin at this time.
Joseph with a smile expands into Anin's room. Now the song that sounds belongs to the boyband WINNER – Sentimental, even though it does not prance like that. But still Anin still imitated the dance movement of the song. Anin who saw Yusuf was already in his room without him knowing when Joseph entered, immediately changed the song that was played now into Adrian Martadinata – Teach Me.
Joseph, who was listening to the song, frowned slightly in astonishment. Why Anin's song playlist can be that drastic. From HipHop to Ballad. It turns out that his future wife has a unique taste in music.
Teach me how to..
To be who you love..
So that I can have...
What an extraordinary
For me and for you..
I hope you understand
It'll be everything I ask
Because you're my life.
Light up my winding path..
Anin immediately turned off the music that was spinning, but his hands were immediately prevented by Joseph. For the first time, they were doing skinship. And it made their hearts beat faster.
Only you know...
Only you understand...
Everybody wants me...
Teach me
I tuk, can love you
Teach me
I tuk, can understand you
Maybe all, will happen
To me..
Only you know..
Teach me to be able...
Loving you...
This time Anin completely turned off the music that would be twisted and Yusuf still stared fixedly at Anin as if he did not want to miss whatever Anin would do now.
"Have the song??"
Hearing this, Anin frowned as if she did not know what Joseph meant.
"Teach me to be the one you love..."
Yusuf copied the one lyric of the song he had just listened to.
"Because right now, I just want to see you as one".
Imbuh Yusuf who makes Anin more speechless. Anin did not know that the one in front of him was Joseph. People who now want to learn to love him. Finally, Anin smiled as a sign that she wanted to do the same to Joseph.
"Teach me, too, Mum..."
I will always wait for you, Mom...
Just you, Mas...
Only you...

"Mr Anin..."
Arwi on a quiet Sunday morning really became a disaster for Anin. Yes, Arwi was always successful in disrupting her sleep hours which can be said to be less than enough for Anin who is a lover of sleep.
"Sir, I'm in..."
Without the consent of the room owner, Arwi sees Anin still behind the bed cover. And PPAAKKK.
"Sir, meningan loe buruan wake up trus dandan beautiful..."
Arwi still did not hesitate to wake Anin and now she flicked the bed cover that covered Anin's body.
"Apaan the hell loe, Dek... Rese is so person... It's weekend..."
Anin answered who was sitting next to Arwi who was ready with his shirt. Arwi is not usually so neat on weekends.
"First, wake the rich to go to war. Now he himself is too..."
"Where is Loe going at this hour?? Neat really..."
Anin glanced at the digital clock on the nightstand. It's 7:00, but Arwi's as neat as he looks now.
"Would I ask you?? For sure this will make you successful big smile and say many times thank you to me..."
Anin just stared at Arwi probing. Usually if it is like this it can be ascertained that the contents of the wallet will be drained because of Arwi.
Arwi who saw Anin's expression right now, immediately stood up and pulled Anin to go to the bathroom. He could no longer wait for Anin to think about what she would do next.
30 Minutes later...
Anin was done with her shower and was already wearing her style for sightseeing. T-shirts and jeans. While the hijab, it is only in the walk-in-closet room Anin. Arwi who saw Anin using the style immediately protested.
"O Allah, O Rabb, my dear brother, why do you wear it rich. I've been handsome to wear my shirt, but loenya even wear a shirt during college loe..."
Arwi immediately gave her clothes of choice to Anin whom she was looking for a definite one from Anin's walk-in-closet.
"Loe just use this. Protest later. Now hunt replace. Loe mah lelet..."
Anin only let out a long sigh, not knowing why the bossy nature of Arwi could appear again like that. Though Arwi has not given rise to that nature since college. Anin just obeyed Arwi's request. Bener too, the time' Arwi was handsome so wear a shirt, he even wear a shirt. Later Arwi will be counted again with the same High School child. As seen when he walked with his sister.
Anin went back into her room. Now she had already changed her clothes with Arwi's choice. Ivory white shirt with knee length and for the bottom he did not replace it, because Arwi only gave him clothes.
Anin immediately put on her make-up as usual. Don't forget he's wearing a British rose scent handbody from The Body Shop. She does have a habit that she will never forget, wearing a handbody, wherever she will go even without make-up. He immediately wore a pashmina in blue navi and just twisted it with practical and simple looks. Which certainly does not require a safety pin here and there. And finally she wears her favorite greentea perfume which is also the output of The Body Shop.
Arwi who saw how Anin now can only be flabbergasted to see the lightning transformation of his brother. She was already used to seeing Anin veiled, but for today her brother was a different aura.
Candidate policy...
Arwi nodded and finally chuckled to himself. While being forced to have a neat double as now, flicked Arwi's forehead.
"Well, you know, that's not a clear smile??"
"Udah nyok, go..."
Arwi did not forget to spray perfume owned Anin which must be admitted if he also likes.
"Ngapain loose my perfume??"
Anin was already at the door of her room.
"The same adek itself is also very loe..."
"Mbak, just use the motor. Let's easy".
Chirps Arwi who has arrived in front of the garage of Anin's house. While Anin who was preparing to open the garage immediately gave a look of protest.
"What the. Yeah, it's up to you. But I'll get the helmet first..."
Arwi immediately pulled Anin's hand for the umpteenth time this morning.
"Iiiissshhhh, what the hell is carrying all the helmets... I've now loe bonceng I the herd, don't wear bawel..."
Arwi immediately start the motor maticnya. Anin just grunted annoyedly. Why he dandan trus wear neat clothes macem gini, if the road is just a complex area. But, Anin also chose to keep silent to follow where Arwi went and they had arrived in front of their parents' house. And that makes Anin feel something strange, when he saw some cars and motorcycles already parked in front of the house. Arwi immediately took Anin directly without explaining anything that was going on.
"Assynthet..."
Greetings from Anin and Arwi that almost simultaneously made people who were already in the living room immediately turn to the source of the voice. Anin immediately caught the gaze of a person who was not so foreign to her. Mother, Father, Joseph and his complete family Anata Dhyaksa without a grandson who certainly plus there is a pack RT also there. This is actually an event 2 times an event on a sunny morning weekend without his knowledge. And today, he also seemed to be kidnapped by Arwi who had from the beginning forced him to come with her.
Anin shook hands with the guests one by one and immediately sat on the remaining seats in the living room. Arwi was sitting next to her father.
"Because the person in waiting is already there, so we just go straight..."
"We have agreed, if we allow you to get married..."
Spontaneous Anin rounded her eyes and slightly opened her mouth. Who else did his father mean if not himself and Joseph. In this single there is only himself, Yusuf and Arwi. And it's increasingly unlikely that Arwi is allowed to marry. Emang Arwi wants to get married who tried.
"And the show will take place next week..."
"Next week, Dad??"
That's all Anin could say. He did not expect that the process would be this fast. Last night, when she contacted her Mother again since the rejection, Mother never discussed her relationship with Joseph at all. Let alone discussing, alluded to about Joseph never. And Anin chose to look for another topic when calling her Mother because she did not want her relationship with her Mother to tighten again.
"Faster instead of better??"
The father with a big smile turned the question to Anin. Everyone who was there, laughed crisply. And Anin looked only at Joseph who had smiled at him.
"Finally, you'll be Umi's daughter-in-law too..."
Umi said to Anin while holding her hand Anin. Anin only replied with a smile with a slight glance towards her Mother who was now also smiling looking at Anin. Now Anin was relieved, because her Mother smiled at him marked that indeed Mother had agreed to all the decisions that Anin as a whole did not know.
"Finally, we can..."
Joseph invited Anin to speak without a voice and Anin only returned with a smile. In the future it is now so relieved and grateful, because one test has been successfully passed.
