WHAT ABOUT ME?
72
I looked at Yuda who was smiling sweetly at me, her eyes full of shade and sincerity made me feel calm.
We were silent, I was confused to have to tell Yuda, because I think it was very sudden even though we had been waiting for each other for a long time.
before long, the sound of greetings from outside broke the silence. Ami came with her husband.
"salamualaik... "
we returned his greetings and then invited Ms. Ami and her husband to sit down, she brought some bottles of mineral water and also a snack wrapped in medium-sized black crackles.
"this is you bringing mineral water and snacks, you must be thirsty for walking here, "
"thank you Mom, sorry to bother you, Mother who visited, but instead brought us drinks like this" said Yuda
"like anyone nak Jud, the same father Mother already considers you her own child, so do not hesitate so. Oh yes, how are your parents in the city, last I heard, you just returned to settle in Indonesia after so long in Singapore? "
"yes sir, thank God the news of good father and mother, we returned to Indonesia because my study there was finished, as well as the father's branch in Singapore, the company, it was stable so my father decided to settle back in Indonesia, "
Pak Yono, seemed to nod, "father heard that as well. I salute you with the persistence of your father, to make a fast forward company like this, oh yes, you so stay here? or just want to be at your dad's house so there's a friend? "
"so sir, maybe in the next few days Judah will stay here, "

The night was getting late, but these eyes were very difficult to shut, I remembered this afternoon, Yuda returned to visit mother, and said his good intentions directly.
Mother looked surprised but a smile immediately rose from her lips. Mother glanced at me and Yuda took turns then nodded.
"Mom gave it all the same Mother's daughter, Jasmin, because she will live it, but for sure, I will always bless whatever the choice. If Jasmin accepts, then I will also give my blessing to son Yuda, I am sure that son Yuda is able to protect and protect Jasmin, just like his father.
how son, do you accept the goodwill of Yuda? " ask Mom later
I nodded "Jasmine already gave her answer this afternoon, Mom. Jasmine received Yuda's proposal," I replied,
a moment later Mother smiled again, "well, so when will Yuda propose to Jasmine officially? " ask mom to Yuda
The conversation between Mother and Judah continued for almost an hour. I just put it all up to Mom, because she's a much more experienced person than I am.
Finally, I asked Yuda to discuss this with his parents, and once it was done, then he could propose to me.
huh
My heart rate was pumping very quickly, especially when I was thinking about the incident this afternoon, and now Yuda has sent me a message.
[i've spoken to my father and mother, they're both very happy and will be scheduling a day for our application] Yuda said
[i wait for the good news] I reply
After replying to a message from Yuda, I tried to close my eyes, for some time, but gradually I felt drowsiness and finally fell asleep until the morning.

This morning I plan to meet Naila and Vidya, of course to meet kangen and discuss about Rania who is getting further and further with us as if we are her biggest enemy.
finished breakfast, and packed the house, then I headed to the chicken noodle shop down the street. Naila said she got there first.
"Mom, Jasmine leaves now yes, let her go home later not bad luck, "my goodbye to Mom
"Yuda is not coming, brother? " ask Mom who makes my cheeks warm
"no, ma'am will gather the girls, want to say also he came, "my answer later
Mother nodded, after giving permission, I immediately walked towards the tavern.
not far indeed, but if taken on foot, it will feel tiring as well.
midway, I met Haris who was driving a pick-up car owned by a rice field manager in our village.I know, because of Mother, I know, yesterday had discussed Rania who is currently living separately with her parents and now lives with Haris in one of the houses owned by Haris' parents. reportedly, Haris is currently working as a driver at Wayan uniform.
He stopped right next to me and called my name. I tried to ignore and chose to continue my footsteps, but apparently, Haris got out of the car and stopped my steps.
