After breakfast Zizi invited Pras to sit on the porch of his house, he wanted to talk to Pras about this matter.
"Sir, you better go home to the city before everything gets worse! let me explain to my own family sir"
"Sir, please do not make me feel more guilty to my father, let me bear all this" said Zizi again
"Why?"
"Yes nak Pras mom is really afraid that kak Pras will carry around later" said Zizi's mother who came out.
"Mom.permit right I solve this mess, mother do not worry me who will take full responsibility for everything my sister does" Pras permission makes Zizi not understand.

The village elders have come to Zizi's house, the mothers also helped cook because tonight will be held a small thanksgiving for Zizi's new home.
"When Zizi said she wanted to work in the city. Pakde has warned that he is careful and can take care of himself. Pakde order not to go home bring a man if just a friend. Unless the man was serious about taking her home. The honor of girls for us is everything Nak Pras, We do not want our virgin children to enter promiscuity even not to get pregnant out of wedlock. Thank goodness, Zizi nurut. Just this time he came home with a man who reportedly will be serious with him "The words of Pakde Zizi increasingly make Pras feel bad if you have to tell the truth.
"Handsome is your future husband Zi, what job?" ask one of Zizi's neighbors who help cook, a habit in Zizi village if there is a celebration of his cooking outside the house to be more free for the neighbors to help and just gossip together.
"In the office ma'am" answered Nisya quickly while Zizi was just downcast he was confused to answer what, should he add more lies.
"One office is Zi?" continued his, Zizi just nodded slowly
"Like a rich man, lucky you Zi, yesterday also bude Sri said she wanted to go to Jakarta, Arum wanted to get married!"
"Deg..." Zizi's heart immediately felt on a pointy knife stick considering who would be Arum's future husband.
"Relax Zi.he's nobody to you anymore" Zizi said.
"If that we have not heard it ma'am, bude Sri has not said anything" said Nisya quickly
Zizi who was slicing onions instead daydreamed and sliced his own hands.
"Aww.." -...."
"Zi.." cried Nisya saw a lot of blood on the hands of his sister-in-law
"Aww.." Zizi groaned withholding the sting of his hand.
"Zean...ze, quickly ask for the same medicine Aunty's hand was injured" cried Nisya and in a nod Zean who was playing
Zean ran towards Zizi's mother who was preparing lunch.
"Why Ze?"pras
"Aunty's hand wound up" Zean replied quickly making Pras immediately get up and walk towards Zizi.
Pras immediately took the water to wash Zizi's hands and covered it with his handkerchief,if there is no one, Pras will insert Zizi's finger into his mouth to stop the bleeding but at this time the situation is different for many neighbors.
"Duh.... his romantic bride-to-be" seduces one of the women who is single.
After making sure Zizi's hand did not bleed again Pras immediately left.

Tonight Zizi's house is already full of relatives and neighbors. Making Zizi and her mother have the courage to be cheated, but this afternoon they had wanted to explain to all relatives that Pras was not the future husband of Zizi.
Zizi also felt guilty if he had to embarrass his mother. The woman who is very meritorious and loved all body souls, if Pras really wants to help her this time to be a candidate pretend she is very grateful after that let her who will think about the next story later, later,which was obvious for the time being he wanted to save his family's pride first.
"Bude heard from bude Sri you're not getting married huh Zi?" asked one of Zizi's neighbors who had just come to make all his silence with the old woman's statement
"Who said Missi, that Zizi's candidate is out there, handsome again" defended one of Zizi's neighbors
"I heard from Sri lo buk, said her lover Zizi will marry another woman"
"Non-fault!! that's Ma'am wearing the cocoa shirt" pointed the mothers at Pras who was sitting wearing a cocoa shirt and black peci among Zizi's relatives and neighbors
"Which one?"
"The most handsome among the fathers there!" nisya answered a little bit, it was good that Bude Sri spread gossip to all the neighbors thought Nisya.
"Yes yes handsome" praised his small smile and Zizi only bowed he was embarrassed at this time if anyone knew that Pras was not the real candidate.
After the recitation was over the elders still sat together and called Zizi to join making Zizi even more confused, he was afraid that Pras would object to all this.
"We see you are very close considering the fear of slander and our Zina the elders propose for you to marry siri first" said Pakde Darto, Zizi's eldest mother's brother
Zizi's face instantly paled at the request of her family.
"Pakde married need preparation can not be this fast" said Zizi trying to refuse
"True Zi, but not her two more months you will also be officially married, according to the Family of the female party who feels at a disadvantage if you continue to be both, this is also for the benefit of you Zi, according to the Family of the female party who feels at a disadvantage if you continue to be both, this is also for your benefit Zi, and this is also for the benefit of you, not all of them have been prepared, two more months stay the inauguration event alone" replied Pakde Zizi
"But my parents aren't here sir" Pras reasoned because he knew Zizi must have objected to marrying her
"Not men do not need guardians nak Pras, only witnesses are enough"
Pras could not dodge anymore he looked at Zizi who seemed to be shaking slowly.
Zizi rejected their advice. However, his voice was still lost when family members agreed that he and Pras marry Siri first so they could calmly release Zizi back to Jakarta.
"Make this series just to keep you from committing adultery even if you only touch hands or look at each other. But that doesn't mean you can be free either. Because marrying the series that is harmed must be the female side if the male side hands off. But, Pakde believes in Nak Pras will take good care of Zizi, proof for five years Zizi is fine, Pakde believes that Nak Pras is a good and responsible man"
Pras was silent without a word, if you can express it with the words Pras is very happy but he also must be able to keep the feelings of Zizi.
From earlier Zizi tried to refuse but no matter how hard Zizi refused and his rejection was supported by the mother, but the majority of votes remained relatives and those present. Zizi was silent and resigned, he felt bad for his boss was involved too far, Zizi knew in Pras' heart there was only Airin his ex-wife.
"Now rest first tomorrow there will be a KUA officer who married you guys, tonight you Pras sleep at the house of the old man" said Brother Zizi's father.
Zizi's anxious face could not be hidden anymore, he was confused by this situation, why Pras instead quietly did not refuse at all, because of fear or maintaining Zizi's self-esteem.
