Halal Love of the Senior
Uneasily

"Sir, is there an answer yet?" adi asked Dita as she sat next to her little sister. He just got home with Rendra for a reason.

"Hail first why Mas, just entered the house," said Dita who immediately greeted her brother.

"Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. That's dong. Usually also enter the house of greeting first. Oh yeah, Adel didn't give you an answer yet, Mas."

Adi sighs. "It's a long time."

"Mas Adi, how long will Istikharah finally dare to ngajak Kak Adel taaruf?" ask Dita's upset.

"There are times a month more," replied Adi while glaring.

"Mas Adi just took a long time, it's only been three weeks, Mas? Adel's sister also must have a lot of consideration especially yesterday had failed to get married."

"You don't know, Dek, how it feels to wait for an answer" Adi lamented.

"Ask Mas Rendra, don't ask me."

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat. What is this about my name?" ask Rendra who just came in.

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Mas Adi upset it, Mas." Dita stood up to Rendra and kissed the back of her husband's hand, which Rendra replied by peeping Dita's forehead.

"Why, Mom?" Rendra sat beside his wife, making Dita in the middle between Adi and Rendra.

"Adel hasn't answered."

"How long has it been?" Rendra.

"Three weeks, Mas," said Dita.

"Oh, it's only been three weeks, ma'am." Rendra smile. "Then it's more urgent to pray in the third night, Mas" suggested Rendra.

"That, huh?" ask Adi not sure.

"Based on my experience anyway, Mom."

"You used to be, Rend?" Adi looked at Rendra.

"Yes, Mas. I used to wait for him twice" Rendra said, glancing at Dita.

"Yes, yeah, Rend. Put on a run-away show to dad's house, too." Adi chimed in.

Dita pursed her lips because it instead became the talk of her husband and brother. "Sindir just keep going" he said, crossing his arms in front of his chest.

"No, sweetie." Rendra smiled as he stroked his wife's head.

"Eh, don't even be friendly. I'm not done talking to this Rendra, Dek," Adi protested.

"I'm going to the room. Mas Adi chatted with Mas Rendra." Dita was about to get up from her seat but was detained by Adi.

"Eh, no, Deck. Our business is not finished either."

He rested his back on the sofa.

"Rend, continue that one," Adi ordered.

"That's what he's doing, Mas. We ask God who can turn the hearts of men. Mas Adi prayed that Adelia's heart would open soon and be able to accept Mas Adi" explained Rendra.

"There's no other way, Rend?"

"I don't know any other way, Mom. If I was that was it. Mas, still mengingan there Dita who can be asked. I used to only see hp. Every time there's an incoming notification hoping it's from Dita." Rendra chuckled while telling a story.

Adi repeatedly nodded her head.

"If Mas Adi is not patient, ask directly Kak Adel aja," proposed Dita suddenly.

"Don't, Deck. Later he even felt chased. Not that I can run later." Adi rejected his sister's proposal.

"From Mas Adi's terror I keep."

"Yes, who knows Adek forgot. It's just ngingetin, Dek. There was no intention of terror, Adek," elak Adi.

Dita sneering. "Ngingetin coke exceeds the rich time of taking the drug. I blocked Mas's number long ago if I'm upset."

"Eh, don't try to block the number, Mas. Teach your wife this Rend, don't be a bad sister."

Rendra smiled amusedly at the debate of his wife and sister-in-law.

"Honey, you can't block Mas Adi's number. Because I was in Mas Adi's position, so I can understand how it feels. Every moment it feels uneasy waiting for something uncertain." Rendra again stroked Dita's head, giving understanding.

"But Mas Adi also do not ask at all times. I am tired of the answer. Mas Adi was also impatient, so it felt long." Dita defended herself.

"Yes, I'll ask you once a day tomorrow if there's no answer." Adi finally relented to Dita. Can run into his business if his sister is scooping.

"Oh yes I forgot. Today was the last time Adel learned to pay with me."

Adi surprised. "Why, Deck?" ask her with a worried look.

"Because his family has invited ustaz to the house to study njai and religion. They said their families wanted to learn everything. I'm still lacking knowledge, so I said to focus on learning the same ustaz only more and understand the science of religion."

"I don't know, Mom. Brother Adel still wants to change his mind anyway the same I. It could also be there needs to be the same Mas Rendra or even Mas Adi." Dita shrugged her shoulders.

"Online is still in line, honey?" Rendra followed.

"Still, Mom, if that's. Does Mas Adi want to follow his agenda?" tawar Dita's.

Adi shakes. "No, Deck. My mind will not focus."

"Since I was a child until the age of 20 years, only this time I saw Mas Adi until agitated rich gini. When his application was rejected, it was only sad for a few days. That's it." Dita's Story.

"It used to be rejected immediately, Dek. So immediately get certainty," said Adi.

"Mas Adi, I asked this seriously. Why did Mas Adi love Adel?" tanya Dita without a stale base.

"Not to know, Dek. After first meeting it feels rich there is a deep impression from Adel. Since then I started Istikharah. I like his open nature, what it is, his passion for religious learning."

"It's not because of the physicality, is it?" Dita squinted at Adi.

"God is not. If women are prettier than Adel, many have already met, Dek. If only from the physical may have long been married. The first impression is definitely of the physical. But what's the point of being physically beautiful, but her heart isn't pretty." Adi sighs.

"Certainly, why did yesterday Mas suddenly say he wanted to share with Adel without a plan? Where is the place no longer."

"Ask Adek's husband, used to shoot Adek in Alkid did he use a plan?"

"Mas, is it true what Mas Adi said?" Dita turned to Rendra.

"Yes, right. I was spontaneous at the time." Rendra replied with a clumsy smile.

"The two of you are not romantic" said Dita.

"But now I'm romantic, right, honey?" Rendra defended herself.

"Yes, yes, Mas Rendra."

"Huh ... start again friendly," Adi quipped.

"Udah don't be envious, Mas. Come on who hasn't been answered why? It is not possible to directly say so right, there must be a trigger," urged Dita.

"Should you answer?" Adi asked back.

"Well, if you don't answer. Yuk, Mas Ren, let's go home to mama."

"Our business isn't finished yet, Deck. It's the same now I play just go if you're upset."

"Mas Adi is also pissed off."

"Yes, I replied. I'm frankly jealous of Bara. I'm afraid Adel likes Bara."

Dita's laughter exploded, until Rendra reprimanded. He began to hold back his laughter while keeping his mouth shut.

"Mas Adi is jealous of Brother Bara?" He laughed again until tears came out of the corner of his eye.

Adi looked at his only wayang sissy sister. Lately, he has been mocking her a lot, even though he knows she is only joking. But it still feels upset.

"That's why he's laughing, Dek," Adi protested.

"Yes. Uh sorry, Mas. I didn't think Mas Adi could be jealous of Brother Bara." Dita was still trying to hold back her laughter.

"Kak Bara is good, but Mas Rendra is still blessed in the heart" said Dita with a smile and looked at her husband. It could be dangerous if he also praised Bara too much. He just found out that it turns out that the two men he loved so much were jealous of the same man, Bara.

"Okay, back to the topic. So if that day we did not talk about Kak Bara and did not come to the music festival, Mas Adi would not have spoken, right?"

Adi nods. "Because I'm still looking for the right time and still steadying my heart. But when I heard Adel's story about Bara, I just realized that I was afraid Adel had someone else."

Dita sighed. "Yes already, nothing. It's been too. Although I like to mash Mas. I pray every prayer for Mas Adi to get a godly wife immediately."

"Aamiinu. Thanks, Deck." Adi grabbed Dita's shoulder and kissed her temple.

"I'm also sad to see Mas Adi who is agitated waiting for an answer, but what I can do. I also might not force Brother Adel to give an answer immediately. Because I was in Adel's position."

"Shot someone we never thought we would. Must be confused, worried. Don't think giving that answer is good too. The woman thinks a lot of things if she wants to decide something, not original, definitely with careful consideration. Especially this is about the future."

"Mas Adi must also understand Brother Adel who is migrating. Adel felt embarrassed, inferior and probably felt unworthy because it had not given an answer. Mas Adi must be more patient, God willing, later will get the answer that is awaited." Dita calms her brother's heart.

"Yes, Deck."

"Dibanyakin istighfar, Mas, the same prayer one third of the night. God willing the heart becomes calmer and soon gets an answer." Rendra gave Adi input.

"Thank you, Rend."
