If Love Could Choose
Vishnu's Reason

That night, Yunia's house was visited by many people. Not to congratulate him on his marriage, but to express his condolences for his father's death. Instantly the incident of marriage to Yunia and Vishnu seemed forgotten.

Most of the guests did not know about the wedding, they considered the existence of the Vishnu family there just a coincidence, because they also knew, if the Vishnu family was previously a neighbor of Yunia.

Yunia sat on the floor facing the body of the father, trying to read Yasin's letter specifically intended for the father, but it turned out that it was difficult to concentrate on reading the series of Arabic letters.

His eyes looked back and forth at the father's body, hoping for a miracle. Perhaps people would run away, if the person who was presumed dead and had already worn their white clothes, suddenly rose up. But really! For tonight, Yunia hopes that it really happened to your body. But... second by second ... minute by minute ..up to hours even, the miracle did not happen.

"Yun.... Come on, eat first..." Said Bik Sumi while patting Yunia on the shoulder. Auntie knows, Yunia hasn't eaten in the afternoon.

"Yunia's not hungry, bi..." Reject the weak Yunia.

"Hmmm.." Bik Sumi sighed. He sat down beside Yunia. "Give up your father, Yo nduk..." Bik Sumi.

"You know, your father once told his aunt that he would die of the brim* that you were there to accompany him..." Bik Sumi.

"Is it because of this, you want to marry me immediately?" Yunia asked as she lowered her head, trying to hide the sobbing back on her chest.

"Auntie doesn't know, nduk... Age of man who knows.... It's just, your father who originally only wanted to match you, suddenly intended to marry you, when Mr. Winoto's family came this morning..." Answer Bik Sumi.

Now replace it, Yunia who took a deep breath and threw it away violently. Last afternoon, Yunia had time to understand why her marriage seemed so rushed. Now he began to understand.maybe, you have "feel" that you must leave him immediately.

Unwittingly, his eyes circulate looking for the figure of Vishnu, and .. there he sits, along with his sister and some male neighbors who remain to melekan*. Staring at the figure of Vishnu with a view of a million meanings. On the shoulders of the man is now his life and happiness rested.

The one who was stared at knowingly turned around and looked back at him. At first glance Vishnu frowned, but a second later he threw a smile at Yunia. It seemed that someone was telling her, that Yunia was looking at her. Then Vishnu seemed to say goodbye to his interlocutor and stepped closer to Yunia.

"Hi..." Soft sweep. Yunia only smiled at a glance.

"Vishnu, let's accompany Yunia to eat. You two haven't eaten since lunch..." Bik Sumi said when Vishnu was about to sit next to Yunia. Vishnu immediately refused to sit down. He bent down and stretched out his hand to invite Yunia to stand up.

"Come, Yun... accompany me to eat...." Said.

"I'm not hungry...." Reject Yunia.

"Please ask for a meal..." Persuade Vishnu. For a moment Yunia was still reluctant to leave her place. But Bik Sumi immediately patted him on the shoulder.

"Come, Yun, pity your mas if you have to eat alone...." Desperate Bik Sumi.

Finally Yunia got up and followed Vishnu into the living room, a room that serves as a dining room as well as a family room.

Yunia brought rice complete with side dishes for Vishnu.

"It's mas..." He said while putting the food plate in front of Vishnu.

"Thank you..." Vishnu. As Yunia was about to sit away, Vishnu grabbed her hand preventing her. "Let's eat together..." Said. Then he pulled a chair near Yunia and sat Yunia there.

In the past, they often ate a plate together uh hgga threesome with. But that was when they were kids. When the amount of food they have is limited or limited, Ms. Yunia often feeds the three of them in the same dish. Usually it happens if they eat instant noodles... 😅😅😅

"Let's learn to compete and learn to empathize with his brother..." Once the mother reasoned, when asked by the father, why the mother did not divide the food into different plates. Though on the plate Vishnu also collect the food into three parts. Of course, because Vishnu and Bayu were men, they ate more and faster, so often the ration of Yunia was also choked by them.

"Let's eat... " The word Vishnu precedes the spooning of his name. "Do I want to be ready?" He asked then when he saw Yunia had not moved bribing.

Some days they eat in silence.

"Yun.. don't be sad again yes." said Vishnu broke their silence. Yunia looked up at Vishnu's face.

"Mas.... does Vishnu know that you want to go...?" Tanya Yunia hingga.

"What do you think Vishnu was a fortune teller?" Tukas Vishnu joked.

"Why did Vishnu want to marry me?" Ask Yunia again while continuing to look at Vishnu's face, looking for clues to Vishnu's sincerity and honesty. Hearing that question Vishnu let out a long breath.

"Actually, this marriage is more about teaching me a lesson..." Reply Vishnu later...

"meaning?" Yunia does not understand.

"A few months ago, I told my father about his concern for you because of his deteriorating health condition..." Vishnu started telling stories.

"... I asked, could you continue your duties of taking care of you... Basically dad and we would love to receive you, it's one of the ways we repay the kindness of the mother who took care of us..."

"Continue...? Why marry me?" Yunia asked still did not understand.

"Well, that's it..." Vishnu was silent for a moment. It seems that Vishnu is a bit difficult to say, making Yunia even more curious.

He is sure, a Vishnu who has a handsome face, his body is tall looking perfect, mature age and also well established in this career, it is impossible just like that, marriage with a girl like her. There must be a lot of beautiful women in her class queuing to get her betrothed.

What is the reason Vishnu, risking his happiness, the future of his love, to want to marry a girl who is still raw like him? Yunia is waiting. Staring at the face of Vishnu as if with that gaze he said...

"Come on, don't dodge anymore. I'm waiting for your answer..."

The one who looked back sighed. It was as if he wanted to let go of the heavy burden in his heart.

"... Before I answer, I ask you first..." Said. Yunia answered nothing, but her forehead wrinkles signaled. "You want to be the mother of my son?"

"I mean...?" There was a strange thump coming in Yunia's heart. Does Vishnu expect to have children with him soon? Dumplings... After school, don't want to have children yet? Yunia's face was hot, she turned her face to hide it from Vishnu.

"Mas, want you to be a mother to Sabina."

Dar!!!

Like lightning striking, it shocked Yunia. As soon as Yunia turned her head, she looked back at Vishnu. The kid? Vishnu already has a child? Oh my God...
