Wild Roses For Luqman
49. Luqman's Decree

At Mr. Burhan's residence. After Luqman's departure, he pulled his body into the house.

"Pa, why so long? Did you talk about the match with him? So what did Luqman say, pa?"

Farida suddenly came out from behind the connection between the living room and the family room, which made Mr. Burhan surprised, and strafed him with questions. Mr. Burhan was suddenly confused, how to explain to Farida.

"Why shut up, pa? Doesn't Luqman like me?"

Farida's face that looked like a light slowly faded, so that made Mr. Burhan Kasian look at it.

"It's not so dear. But he's just not ready to get married."

"Seriously, pa?"

"Yes." Yeah." Mr. Burhan nodded his head. The smile on Farida's face that had faded was now back again.

"No problem, pa. Farida will be waiting for him. Well then, Farida helped mama and auntie again." Mr. Burhan nodded his head once more.

After Farida's departure, Mr. Burhan sat on the living room couch kneeling his temple plan.

"Farida looks really happy, Burhan. Does Luqman really like it?"

"Why are you asking like that, Fahmi? Of course it is. The two will be married soon. I'll get the complete package's daughter-in-law. Because not only handsome, hardworking, but also an ustadz." Mr. Burhan said with a jumawa smile. Even though he was lying.

"I'll be so jealous of you, because you're so lucky." Fahmi who is the brother of Mr. Burhan chuckles.

Mr. Burhan only smiled a faint smile, and said nothing more.

But until evening, he could not sleep, because he imagined Luqman's face. He was happy to hear what his father said.

**

Last night Luqman could not sleep, because he thought about what Mr. Burhan said.

On one hand, he loved his late father. But on the other hand, he really did not like the matchmaking.

He was afraid that if he was desperate to accept the match, it would affect his domestic relationship with his wife.

He was grateful, his mother gave him all the decisions, and did not urge him.

The next morning, Luqman continued to do his usual activities. If you keep thinking about the problem overnight, it will make him lose his spirit.

Almost an hour Luqman was exercising. Driven by thirst, he took the water in the refrigerator and sipped it while sitting on the dining chair. Not to forget he called Mr. Burhan to invite him to meet later in the afternoon.

While waiting for a reply from Mr. Burhan, Luqman still at home playing his phone. And in that same room, Rose was preparing breakfast.

The aroma of his cooking was so fragrant, making Luqman's stomach rumble and want to taste it.

'Wonder, now the Rose is very good at cooking. The smell always makes me tempted. It's not like it used to make me and my mom nervous. If she had been born long ago and in proper upbringing, she would have been a very good girl. Now he's all right. His prayers are good, not even just performing obligatory prayers, but he also does sunah prayers. Lhoh, wait a minute. Why do I praise him so often? What's wrong with me? I never praised Farida, but instead praised Roses. No, there's no way I like my own maid. It must be just a sense of admiration. Yeah, sheer awe, nothing more."
