The appointed day arrived. Today, Mr. Adinata's family will take his son to propose to a girl, Avica, to become a mother. The show was not luxurious, only the nuclear family came. Avica went home with them, before the girl had informed her parents if today there would be guests who would visit her house.
"Have you notified your family, Ca?" Ask Sarah's mom.
"Already mom. After the talk I immediately contacted my parents." Answer Alula.
"alright. How long are we gonna take?" Ask Sarah again.
"About 3 hours, ma." Reply Abizar who is driving. After that there was no more conversation.
After traveling far enough finally the car they ride to be right in front of the yard of Avica's parents' house. Many people are curious when there is a car parked in front of Avica's parents' house.
"Who is Linda's guest? How to use a nice car." Ask one of Linda's neighbors to the other. Ms. Linda is the mother of Avica, while her father is named Mr. Agil.
Then from the car out the first time Adi was followed by Sarah's mother and then Avica also came down while carrying Alula. When he saw Avica go down while holding the little children of the neighbors who were gathering was increasingly confused.
"That's Avica, what's a child's carrier?" Ask one of the mothers there.
"Alahh, at most the child is just a baby sitter. The school is just high school. Same with my son in college." Reply to a mother who looks not like Avica.
"Lecture also can not guarantee a good job bu Ida if her child is not sinter and not diligent." Bu Laras chimed in Ida's words. Because they feel not accepted by the words of Mrs Laras, eventually Ida chose silence rather than getting everywhere. All the mothers who were still gathered were still paying attention to Avica's house. Avica who just got down from the car saw there were many mothers who noticed him also greeted him.
"Good day, mothers." Her speech. Then Abizar got out of the car and approached his parents and Avica who was holding her daughter. The mothers who saw Abizar came out even more excited.
While Avica's parents who had been waiting from this morning also came out of the house when they heard the sound of a car that stopped in front of his house.
"The camera has turned out." Said Mr. Agil.
"Assalamu'alaikum father, mother." Said Sarah's mom.
"Getishalight." Said Mr. Agil and Ms. Linda.
Then Sarah's mother greeted both Avica's parents followed by Adi and Abizar. Avica approached her parents to kiss her hand.
"Dad, mother how are you? You're healthy, aren't you?" Avica asked her parents.
"We're healthy, son." Answer Linda ma'am. "This beautiful boy is what his name is." Ask Linda to Alula who has been watching Linda and Agil.
"Alula salim used to be the same grandma and grandpa baby!" Avica Pinta on Alula. Alula also said.
Alula shook hands with Agil and Linda took turns "I am Alula nek." Her speech.
"A name as beautiful as her man." Said Linda again.
"Let's enter. Sorry if the house is narrow." Mr. Agil invited his guests to enter.
"No problem sir, the most important thing is to take shelter." Said Sarah's mom.
All of them entered and then Avica followed her mother backward. Before that he handed Alula to nu Sarah first but the boy did not want to be left Avica.
"Lula go with oma first. Mama wants to go back and help grandma." Avica.
"don't want. Alula wants to come with me." Reject the boy.
"A little while, baby. Her mother will be here again." Persuade Sarah to her grandchild.
Abizar who saw her son so close to Avica thought it was not wrong to keep his promise to the child to be Avica as a mother, Alula said. While Mr. Agil, Avica's father was confused what relationship his daughter had with the family of Adi so that his grandson could call Avica's mother. In my heart I kept wondering.
In the kitchen Avica helped her mother prepare a banquet for her guests.
"Who are they, Ca?" Ask Linda to Avica.
"They're actually Caca's employer, Bun."
"What is the purpose for them to come here?" Ask her mother suspiciously. Actually when Ms. Linda saw the guest who came with her child it seemed like the person who looked up to Ms. Linda thought that they came with a very important purpose.
Avica was confused to explain how. "They're here to propose to Caca, Bun. So I'm connecting the kid that Alula carried earlier." Obviously Avica was a little afraid that her Mother would be shocked and would not approve of her.
"Why should you Ca? We are an incapable family, while they look like people are. Can they accept you well?" Ask Linda to worry.
"They're a good family, Bun. From the beginning we met. God willing they will receive Caca well. Mother and Father should always pray for Caca. Caca's already in love with Alula, Bun." Avica's answer to her mother's question.
While in the guest room Mr. Agil and the family of Mr. Adi also talked.
"What's up, ma'am. Is my daughter making trouble?" Ask Mr. Agil confused at their arrival.
"No sir. We're here because we want to make friends with your father's family." Obviously mr. Adi.
" Yes sir. We're here because we have something to say." Miss Sarah chimed in.
While they were talking Avica and her mother came to bring her drinks and food as a banquet. And they stopped the conversation first.
"Let's sir, ma'am please taste the dishes." Linda invited her guests.
"I'm sorry it's like this." Said Mr. Agil.
"It's okay sir, sorry if we're troubling." Said Sarah's mom.
"Not a hassle at all, ma'am." Reply to Linda.
Alula who was in the lap of his omens has also moved with Avica. Like his boy it really can't get far with Avica. Ms. Linda who accidentally saw him also understood that they could not be separated.
"Previously sorry if our arrival here interfered with father and mother's time." Said mr. Adi. "We are here to ask for or propose to my father's daughter and mother Avica for my son Abizar and to be the next mother of my grandson Alula." Say Mr. Adi again.
"Sorry before, sir, not that we refuse. All of those decisions are in my daughter's hands. But before that my father and mother would know if we were just poor people. Is it appropriate if my daughter is with the father's son. Because my daughter's original goal was to work in the city to help fund her sister's school who was still in Elementary." Obviously Mr. Agil. He felt inappropriate if he made contact with a respected person because of different castes. Because however Mr. Agil wants his daughter to be happy after marriage and well received by his new family.
"We're not like that, sir. We already consider Avica to be our own daughter. What is important to us is the sincerity of his heart. Because treasures cannot be made benchmarks. Everything belongs only to the Power and will return to Him." Sarah's mom reassured Avica's parents.
"Then let my daughter answer. How's son?" Ask Mr. Agil on Avica.
Avica pulled the safas for a while and then she took it out slowly. "With the permission and blessing of father and mother, Avica is willing." Avica said a little nervously.
"Alhamdulillah." Speak to everyone there.
"Thank you dear." Sarah hugged Avica.
Then Abizar took out a pair of rings that he had prepared since far away. Then he pinned the sweet finger Avica then alternated with Avica who pinned the ring sweet finger Abizar.
