After getting input or advice from Lukman's father, Ais has no doubt to accept Bagas' invitation to get married.
But when Bagas came again, Ais deliberately did not say anything first. He deliberately waited, Bagas who opened the conversation.
"Actually I wanted to ask about the thing I often asked, but I was worried that Ais would become angry or offended if I frequently asked about marriage," inner Bagas so he undoes his intention to talk about remarriage.
"Tumben once Mas Bagas did not talk about marriage, usually the first main topic he said was to invite me to get married as soon as possible. If I say it, I'm afraid I'm wrong to say it. Ah I should just keep quiet until Mas Bagas opens the conversation about marriage, "inner Ais.
Neither Ais nor Bagas talked about marriage. Precisely what they are talking about is another thing, although actually in the heart of both are eager to express about marriage.
Until before returning home was either Bagas or Ais still silent not talking about it. Almost every Bagas came home from the office, he certainly did not go straight home but directly to the restaurant. And then he came home with ice. First, take Ais home.
While Lukman's father who stands by guard the restaurant until it closes at seven p.m. Lukman's father and Ais have agreed not to close the restaurant too late.
"Mas Bagas, want to stop by for coffee or want to eat first?" said Ais broke the silence when it reached the courtyard of the house.
"Darling, did you forget? just now when I got to the restaurant instead of I had eaten, yes I have to eat again later that my stomach becomes distended how?" canda Bagas chuckles.
Ais was just silent she only responded with her trademark smile. After a long time at the house of Ais then Bagas say goodbye home. As for Bagas there was a sense of disappointment in Ais' heart, because what he wanted to hear from Bagas' mouth was not spoken by him.
"Why today Mas Bagas did not say about marriage when I wanted to say that, wanted to respond. Is he really tired because there is no definite answer from me huh? why am I worried about what my father once said."
"I'm worried that Mas Bagas is not interested in marrying me. Well....why does my heart become erratic like this huh?"
Feeling restless and agitated is now sweeping Ais, he is worried that Bagas' attitude will change because often Ais always makes excuses if Bagas invites him to marry.
While at this time Bagas has reached his home court. He dropped his ass on his patio chair while straightening his legs against his back on the chair. His gaze glared at the horizon that spread widely in front of him, his mind was currently traveling.
"Bagas, you're home. Why is your face moody like that, are you in a lot of trouble in your office or are you fighting with Ais?" one clap landed on Bagas' left shoulder which left him stunned in shock.
"There is no problem whatsoever, it's just that this heart is not calm because until this moment Ais has no answer about my invitation to marry him."
"Sometimes I think that ice isn't serious with me. Though if I know any girl if invited to marry will feel very happy and happy, but why not with Ais?"
Hearing what her son said, Eti also smiled as she stepped to sit beside the chair where her son was sitting.
"Ais was so careful and meticulous because perhaps she saw from the failure of her parents' household. It could have made him worried and afraid to step into the marriage."
"Saran mamah, you are patient in dealing with Ice. And for now try to avoid the words marriage first. Surely if Ais is really ready, by itself he will agree to your invitation."
Bagas smiled after hearing the advice and some suggestions from Eti. He was no longer anxious and anxious. He also had time to think that his courtship with Ais was also only a few months. Maybe they still need more time to adapt to understand each other's shortcomings and advantages.

By evening, Lukman's father was already relaxing at home. He also idly approached Ais who was busy counting the bookkeeping of the restaurant in the middle room.
"How, Ice? have you told Bagas about your willingness to marry him?" ask Lukman's father to investigate.
'Hem...not yet father, ' said Ais while cool with his activities.
"Well, why haven't you said it yet? do you doubt him?" ask Lukman's dad in wonder.
"It's not so, dad. Earlier, Mas Bagas just kept quiet did not mention the words marriage, so I also did not say anything," said Ais.
"Why are you so, Is? you should be the one who talked first is okay," protested Father Lukman while sighing long.
"I'm not good dad, if you have to talk first to Mas Bagas. That's why I deliberately waited for him to say but instead Mas Bagas did not mention marriage, he only talked about other things," said Ais.
"Ais, the existence of Bagas was silent that maybe he was tired of also saying about the marriage. What's wrong with your turn to say it first" suggested Lukman's father.
"Yes, too, father, it is possible that Mas Bagas was tired to say about marriage so he just kept quiet and talked about other things" Ais confirmed his father's words.
"It could be like that, surely the Bagas wanted to say it again but he was worried that he would get another rejection from you. And there you reasoned this and that again until Bagas did not say about his invitation to marry you" said Lukman's father.
"Well I should how dad, should I just shut up or should I say it first?" ask Ais the dilemma.
"And I told you just now, there is no harm if you say it first so that there is no wedge in the hearts of both of you, and so that you are equally relieved," said Lukman's father.
"Alright then dad, tomorrow I will say it first if I meet with Mas Bagas," said Ais.
