After determining the time of the marriage contract, Mr. Lukman, Mother Sarah and Adi discussed the technical implementation. Akad will not be carried out at Mr Lukman's house but at the mosque near Adi's house so that Restu cannot sniff out their plans. Adi was very careful with the plans he had already laid out.
On that occasion, Adi also asked permission to take Adelia to live with him after they were married. Although sad because they had to live apart with their daughter, Mr. Lukman and Sarah's mother would not allow. Because after marriage later, Adelia's responsibility will automatically move to Adi.
They ended the meeting that day at around 08:00 pm due to the interruption of Magrib prayer and eating. When Adi was about to pay the bill, Mr. Lukman kept him. Because Mr. Lukman's reservation so he thinks it's appropriate for him to pay all the bills. Adi rejected it on the grounds that he invited to meet.
When Adi and Mr. Lukman argue to determine who will pay, Sarah's mother secretly offers a debit card to the cashier. After the cashier processed the payment, Sarah's mother took the card back.
"Pa, Mas Adi, let's go home," Sarah's mother asked the two men next to her who were still arguing.
"Let me pay first, Auntie," said Adi.
"Tante has paid," Sarah's mother said with a smile.
"Eh, even Aunt who paid," protested Adi.
"Already, nothing. Another time Mas Adi who treat us." Sarah's mother held Adi's arm.
"I'm not good, I'm the one who asked to meet, Auntie."
"Brought good, Mas," always Sarah's mother.
The three of them went out of the restaurant. Adi drove both of his future in-laws to the side of their car. After saying goodbye, Mr. Lukman drove his car forward.
On the way home, Adi called his sister to come to his house. He wanted to talk about his marriage plan. After that, he informed his father and his mother about the results of his talks with Mr. Lukman and Sarah's mother. Both of his parents welcomed his kabul plans that will be carried out in two days. After Adi gets home, they will talk about it.
...---oOo---...
After returning from the restaurant, Sarah's mother cleaned up. After discussing with her husband, they agreed, she would talk to Adelia about the plan of kabul ijab which would be accelerated.
Sarah's mother then invited Adelia to speak together in her daughter's room, before they went to bed.
"What the hell is it, Ma?" Adelia frowned in wonder at her mother, not usually invite her to talk alone in the room.
Sarah's mother smiled at her daughter. "Sir, my mom and dad met Mas Adi."
"I'm not saying anything, Ma." Adelia turned sullen.
"Why? Ma'am, are you the same Mas Adi?" seductive Mother Sarah.
"What the hell, Ma." Adelia blushed in shame.
Sarah's mother chuckles at Adelia.
"Sir, want to know what we were talking about?" ask Sarah's mother after stopping her laughter.
"What is it, Ma?" Adelia supported her chin with her right hand while looking at her mother.
"Mas Adi wants to marry Ma'am soon."
Instantly Adelia straightened up. He closed his mouth with both hands, surprised.
"Me ... Marriage, Ma?" Adelia still couldn't believe what she heard.
Sarah's mother nodded her head. "Yes, married. Ma'am, married to Mas Adi."
Adelia's riveted. His brain was still digesting what he heard. Dita never mentioned this at all let alone Mas Adi. And now suddenly Mas Adi wants to marry her soon. It was like a dream come true.
"Sir, I'm daydreaming. Don't want to marry Mas Adi?" Sarah's mother was worried because Adelia had been silent for a long time.
"Eh .. no, Ma. It's .. It's not a dream, is it, Ma?" Adelia looked into her mother's eyes.
"Of course not." Sarah's mother shook her head.
"Mama, don't give me any more, do you?" ask Adelia again.
"But ... why?" Adelia raised her eyebrows.
"Because Mas Adi wants to protect and keep Mbak from Restu," said Sarah's mother straightforwardly.
"Yes, but why get married?"
"Mas Adi's position as a future husband is not yet strong enough to protect, Ma'am. Therefore Mas Adi wants to get married immediately in order to really protect, Ma'am. Mas Adi is very loving with Mbak until asking for permission directly papa and mama. Rarely is there a man like Mas Adi, Ma'am."
"Means booking in mascam canceled dong, Ma?"
"No. You will marry religiously first, officially according to the original plan. Don't you want to?" ask Sarah's mother.
"It doesn't matter what you want, Ma. But why did Mas Adi not talk about this first with me. Why did Adi decide for himself?" grouse Adelia.
"Mas Adi has his own reasons, Ma'am. Restu still keeps sending messages. Adi was not calm. He doesn't want to be thinking and is afraid to go anywhere." Sarah's mother tried to calm her daughter.
"But not like this either, Ma. He said anything should be discussed first. In fact, Mas Adi even made his own decision. How the hell?" nagel Adelia.
"Mama and papa also directly agree, yes when Mas Adi asked permission? Why not ask my opinion first?" Adelia kept grumbling.
Sarah's mother was quite surprised by her daughter's reaction. She thought Adelia would be happy to be able to marry Adi soon. But it turns out that his daughter was even upset because she was not involved in making a decision.
On the one hand Sarah's mother understood because after all Adi and Adelia who will live her domestic life. They should have talked about this important thing before deciding to get married. Maybe his daughter is upset about not being involved when it comes to both of them.
But on the other hand, Sarah's mother also supports Adi's fast-moving decision to protect Adelia. As the mother who conceived and gave birth to Adelia, of course she did not want her daughter to live with anxiety due to the interference of her former lover. With Adi as husband, of course, Sarah's mother will be calmer because there is someone who protects and gives happiness to the daughter he loves so much.
Sarah's mother breathed. He grabbed Adelia's hand and grabbed her.
"Mama and Papa allow you to get married immediately also with a lot of consideration, Ma'am. We are not just straight away. And, the matter of marriage is a good thing to be hastened, Ma'am. Wouldn't marriage also complete half of religion." Sarah's mother looked into her daughter's eyes.
"Mama knows, maybe Mbak is upset about not being involved. But we are doing all this for the good, too. Mama and papa will also be calmer if Mbak is married," said Sarah's mother full of tenderness.
"But, didn't Papa and Mas Adi oppose us getting married religiously first?" Adelia's back inflamed.
"That's because there hasn't been a problem Restu, Ma'am. Now the situation is different, and getting married is one solution to overcome Restu. In our opinion, this is a very urgent matter, it must be done immediately so that Mbak can live quietly." Sarah's mother smiled broadly at her daughter.
"Bak is an adult, can think clearly. Try to think again if Mbak is in the position of Mas Adi what will Mbak do? Will you be silent if people from the past Mas Adi come to disturb you who are still not married? Do you have full rights to expel him?"
"Is there any guarantee that by marrying the problem will be solved just like that?" Adelia insisted.
"There are no guarantees, ma'am. But at least by getting married, people will think twice about disturbing your relationship. There are things you should know. Saturday, Restu comes home and invites you to meet. Mas Adi plans to meet Restu with Ma'am, with the status of husband, not prospective husband."
"Try thinking and thinking about what you said. Hasn't Mama also decided to emigrate? You must also know better than mom and dad about religious law."
Adelia looked down and was silent, not saying her mother's words anymore.
"Didn't you want to get married to Mas Adi after what you said?" Sarah's mother raised her daughter's face so they could look at each other.
"If Mbak does not want to, later mama will tell papa to convey it to Mas Adi."
"I ...."
