Halal Love of the Senior
Taaruf 2's

"Senpai Adi." Arsenio straightened up in a perfect manner and bowed half-body, saluting. After that he approached Adi, shook his hand with a big smile.

"Arsenio, you're this big now. Last time I saw a picture of the family was richly acquainted, but I'm not sure it was you." Adi patted Arsenio on the shoulder with a big smile.

Mr. Lukman, Mother Sarah and Adelia were surprised to see the interaction between the two. It turns out they knew him before. It even looks very familiar.

"Adek, do you know Mas Adi?" ask Sarah's mother with curiosity.

"That's very familiar, Ma. Senpai Adi was the one who trained me in karate at Junior High." Arsen still looks enthusiastic because he met Adi again.

"The world is indeed narrow, Ma" said Mr. Lukman.

"Yes, Pa." Sarah's mother agreed.

"Senpai, how are you?" ask Arsenio to Adi.

"Alhamdulillah, I am good as you see. How, do you still practice often?" Adi hugged Arsenio's shoulder.

"Since Senpai doesn't train anymore, I've never been in training" said Arsenio.

"Why? Darling, when you are good. Rendra who now often trains at the ring, you come again. This was him training there too."

"Mas Rendra who's her friend Mbak Adel? How do you know Senpai?"

"Yes knows him well. Rendra's wife is my sister."

"Oh ... Why doesn't Senpai train anymore?"

"I'm tired of working, almost every day overtime. So if the holidays want to rest at home. But, sometimes I practice alone at home if there's time."

Arsenio mangosteen.

"The Deck of reunion. Later on. Mas Adi so stand still because of Adek."

"Yes, Ma" said Arsenio.

"Senpai, let's sit down." Arsenio sat next to Adi. He still could not believe that he could meet Adi again.

"Don't call senpai anymore, I'm not your coach" Adi said.

"That's okay, Senpai."

"Bak, where do you drink Mas Adi?" reprimand Sarah's mother who saw Adelia was still fixated on seeing her sister and Adi who were very familiar.

"Astaghfirullah, I forgot. Sorry, Mas Adi." Adelia rushed to the back to grab a drink and a snack she had prepared in the kitchen.

Soon Adelia returned to the living room followed by Mbok Sum who brought a tray of drinks and snacks. After all was presented on the table, Mbok Sum returned to the back. Adelia sat down next to her mother.

"Mas Adi, please drink and enjoy the snack. It looks like it."

"Thank you, Auntie. It's even a hassle." Come Om, Aunt, Adel, Arsen." Adi took his drinking cup.

"Bismillah" said Adi before sipping his drink.

They all then drank and enjoyed the snacks available.

"Om, Auntie, my arrival here, the first one wants to be in touch with the Om Lukman family. The second, I want to share with the Om family because I have good intentions to propose Adelia," Adi said seriously after it was felt to be quite stale.

"If Om and Aunt agree with my good intentions, God willing next week or when Om and Aunt have time, I will invite my family to get acquainted with the Om family, follow up the taaruf process today," he continued.

"Thank you Nak Adi has been in touch with our family. Not many young people who want to directly meet the parents of women he loves convey their own good intentions. I really appreciate and respect Nak Adi's goodwill." Mr. Lukman replied to Adi.

"I'm sorry if Om sassy asks, does this taaruf mean Nak Adi wants to get in touch with Adel? What do you mean by asking permission to date or fiancee?" Lukman stared intensely at Adi.

"I'm not going to date or be engaged to Adelia, Om. If the process of taaruf is smooth, God willing I will immediately propose to Adelia and marry her."

"So no dating or fiancee?" ask Mr. Lukman to make sure.

"God willing, there is none, Om," Adi replied firmly.

"Why not date or fiancee first? How do you get to know each other more deeply?"

"Later to date and the process of knowing him after marriage, Om. When we've been lawful and innocent by ourselves."

"If you don't know each other yet, how is Nak Adi so sure you want to marry Adel?" Mr. Lukman frowned.

"God willing, I have asked Allah for guidance through Istikharah prayer, Om. And God made my heart set on marrying Adelia. Therefore I am here to start the process of taaruf before marriage" explained Adi.

"Like me, Insya Allah Adelia has also done Istikharah prayers. I came to see Om and Auntie because Adelia agreed to taaruf" he continued.

"Yes, Pa. That's exactly what Mas Adi said." Adelia chimed in, supporting Adi's words.

"If I agree Senpai Adi to be her husband Adel Ma'am. Senpai Adi is good, Pa, Ma." Arsenio also said.

"Om and Aunt can only bless, support and pray for you if you both feel confident. Adelia to Nak Adi. Om hope Nak Adi doesn't disappoint us like Adelia's previous nominee."

"Thank God, thank you, Om, Auntie, Arsen. God willing, I will take care of Adelia and try not to disappoint Om and Auntie. Because I'm just an ordinary human being who can be wrong and be happy."

"Did Nak Adi know that Adel had previously failed to get married?" ask Mr. Lukman.

"Yes, I know Om," replied Adi.

"Actually since the cancellation of the engagement, om want Adel to focus on college first until S2. But if it turns out Adel is now ready to get married, om can what. It is not good to block good intentions. Moreover, who will marry the princess om the figure of a godly man like Nak Adi."

"Om too much, I am just an ordinary man who does not escape from wrong and sin. If I look good it's because God still covers my disgrace." Adi is back.

"Mas Adi is always low. What are we compared to Mas Adi" said Sarah's mother.

Adi smiles. "We are both servants of God, Auntie. We are equal before God."

"Mama so feel like talking about this pak ustaz, Pa," continued Sarah's mother.

"Yes, yes, Ma." Mr. Lukman chimed.

"I am still a science, far from ustaz" said Adi.

"Oh yes, Nak Adi, what kind of taaruf process are we talking about?" ask Mr. Lukman back to the subject.

"Om, Auntie, Adelia or Arsenio may ask me anything to get to know me better" Adi replied.

Mr. Lukman mangosteen. "Then, how about Nak Adi's story about Nak Adi and the family? Just outline doesn't need details."

"I am the first of two children. My sister, Dita, was married to Rendra last year. My father works as an ASN and mother housewife ...." Adi started telling me about himself and his family.

"It looks like Nak Adi's family is quite religious. Can you accept Adelia and our ordinary family?" ask Mr. Lukman after hearing Adi's story.

"God willing, Om. As I said, we are the same before God. Worship is God's business. As human beings, we have no right to judge each other. I came here also with the blessing of my two people, so I don't think there will be any problems" Adi replied at length.

"Is Nak Adi also ready to accept Adelia with her past and all her shortcomings?"

"God willing, Om. I also have a lot of shortcomings. Hopefully later we can cover each other's shortcomings."

"Aamiin" said Adelia.

"What about Nak Adi? What's not suitable?" Mr. Lukman looked at his wife.

"Mama really fits since the story about Mas Adi." Sarah looked happy when she said that.

"Mbak, how? Is it the same as Adi?" Mr. Lukman turned to his daughter.

"God willing that Papa and Mama will approve." Adelia answered while blushing in embarrassment.

"I'm not being asked, Pa?" Arsenio interrupted.

"Dadk said he agreed so don't ask me again."

Arsenio grimaced, she held her nape, covering up the embarrassment.

"So when will Nak Adi introduce his family?" Lukman looked back at Adi.

"If next week Om and Aunt have time, God willing, I will come with family to get to know each other."

"Well, is there a no-show next week?" ask Lukman to his wife.

"Perity isn't. How's papa himself?"

"Papa doesn't exist either."

"Then next week alone, Mas Adi," said Sarah's mother.

"Good, Aunt. God willing next week I come again with my family."

"What's the proposal, Adi boy?"

"I don't think so, Om. Just two family introductions. If for a proposal please later Om and Aunt who talked about it with father and mother. Or Om and Aunt want me to apply next week?" Adi looked at Mr. Lukman and Ms. Sarah in turn.

"The proposal should be later after the introduction, Pa. We'll also have to tell the other families we can't just like this."

"Yes, too, Ma. Then next week we wait for the arrival of Nak Adi's family."

"Good, Om."
