The Three Chosen
290. Proposing Nuara
On the roof of the company building Iyaz was standing while putting both hands into his pants pocket. His gaze was far ahead as if it wanted to pierce through the sky. Every now and then Iyaz seemed to take a deep breath to unravel the burden in his heart. Izar who felt the restlessness of Iyaz came over.
“ My feeling is not good. I don't know my twin anymore. What's the matter Yaz...?” Izar asked while patting the back of his twin.
Iyaz turned towards Izar then shook his head to hide his feelings.
“ Don't lie Yaz...,” sergeant Izar doesn't believe.
“ Kalo I proposed to Estuary about the same Father Mother agreed ga Zar..?” tanya Iyaz lirih's.
Izar was surprised to hear Ayaz's question and looked closely at his twin.
“ You are serious Yaz...?” ask Izar.
“ Insha Allah I am serious Zar..,” says Iyaz steady.
“ Kok very sudden...?” ask Izar.
“ I don't want to go first with other men Zar...,” says Iyaz.
“ Who...?” tanya Izar did not understand.
Iyaz turned to Izar and told him what he had heard and Izar listened carefully.
“ But what Nuara also likes you Yaz. It will not be nice to apply but you are rejected later.” said Izar riled.
“ I'm going to mastiin this afternoon Zar. If Nuara is willing to marry me, ntar afternoon I will come to propose to his house first before the man comes.
“ Don't be crazy You Yaz. Applying is the rule, the time you propose to people's children without preparation.” said Izar.
“ I applied personally first Zar, family application can follow later..,” said Iyaz.
“ I did not expect You who are calm gini can be stubborn too if you are about Yaz girl..,” said Izar smiled as he shook his head.
“ It's emergency Zar. So I have to be quick...,” says Iyaz.
“ Ok, I support You Yaz..” said Izar enthusiastically.
“ Me too..!” hanako said suddenly to make the twins surprised and then turned to Hanako.
“ Cici..!” call Iyaz and Izar together.
“ I've heard it all and I agree that Iyaz proposed to Nuara this afternoon..,” Hanako said as she placed a small box of rings into Iyaz's hands.
“ This what Ci...?” ask Iyaz.
“ Ring. I want you to lamar Nuara with this ring Yaz. Don't be shy about me, the time to bedwet girls use empty hands..,” said Hanako while sneering.
Iyaz laughed happily and hugged Hanako tightly. Izar laughed happily.
“ Thanks Ci...,” says Iyaz while peeping Hanako's head in love.
“ Equally....,” Hanako said while patting Iyaz's back gently.

That afternoon Iyaz exercised his intention to propose to Nuara. He approached Nuara who was having lunch with Linda at a cafe not far from the office.
“ Um, excuse me. What I am interrupting..?” saya Iyaz surprised Nuara and Linda.
“ Ga Disturb sir. Let's sit down...,” said Linda kindly.
“ Thanks. But I want to talk to Nuara alone, can ga..?” tanya Iyaz while looking at Nuara and Linda alternately.
Nuara and Linda stared at each other for a moment then nodded. Linda stood up and moved to another table.
“ Please, let me sit there aja..” said Linda with a smile.
“ Thanks Linda..,” says Iyaz.
Iyaz also sat in front of the estuary who looked confused. For a moment both of them were silent from nervousness. Then Iyaz ventured to open the conversation.
“ You've pesen lunch..?” ask Iyaz.
“ Udah Pak..,” sahut Nara nervously
“ Ok. Look Nuara, I'm straight away. I didn't knowingly hear your chat with Linda in the pantry this morning. Honestly, I'm shocked and can't believe that your parents arranged your match with a man you don't know. I just want to say if I mind You accept the matchmaking Nuara..,” said Iyaz while staring at Nuara sharply.
The sound looks wrong. He was happy because finally Iyaz wanted to talk in a long sentence this time. It's just that Nuara was confused by the content of the conversation.
“ Sorry, but I don't understand what Mr. Iyaz means..,” said Nuara as she ventured to stare at Iyaz.
Iyaz smiled and leaned over to talk closer to Nuara.
“ I don't want You to marry another man because I'm going to marry You Nuara..,” said Iyaz firmly to make the eyes of both Estuary round so surprised.
For a moment the two stared at each other. The awakened voice immediately blinked its eyes with a face that blushed in embarrassment.
“ How Nuara, are you willing to marry Me...?” ask Iyaz.
The voice seemed to be squeezing his own hands. One side he was happy to hear the words of Iyaz, but the other side of his heart doubted the seriousness of Iyaz given his unfriendly attitude all along.
“ Mr. Iyaz kidding yes. I do not understand why Mr. Iyaz suddenly talked about marriage when between us there was no relationship before. Please do not make this a joke because for some people the marriage is a sensitive thing Mr. Iyaz.” said Nuara reminded.
“ I'm not kidding anymore Estuary. By Allah I seriously want to marry You.” said Iyaz earnestly to make the Voice choke.
Iyaz also thrust a glass of water towards Nuara who immediately gulped it down to the toilet. After that Nuara seemed to try to calm down even though the gaze of Ayaz made him wrong.
“ Mr. Iyaz wants to marry me..?” tanya Nara hesitates.
“ Yes...,” sahut Iyaz firmly.
“ Why should I...?” ask Nara again.
“ Because I love You Estuary, I love your flaws and your strengths. I'm aware that you don't believe because all this time I've never shown My feelings in front of you. For now I can't show you how much love I've got for you. But believe me if I seriously want to marry You..,” said Iyaz while staring fixed Estuary.
Both eyes were glazed. He seemed moved to hear the expression of the feeling of Iyaz who had been like a dream for Nuara. Somehow Nuara believed in Ayaz's words and slowly nodded her head.
“ Yes, I believe...” said Nuara shrivelled to make Iyaz smile.
“ So what does that mean you received my application..?” ask Iyaz carefully.
A pensive voice for a moment then nodded his head with a smile.
“ Yes...,” sahut Nuara timidly.
“ Alhamdulillah.., thanks Nuara..,” said Iyaz with a happy sparkling face.
“ Equally....,” said Nuara with a smile.
Then Iyaz took out a box containing Hanako's ring and handed it over to Nuara.
“ This ring gift from Bu Hanako for you. I hope You want to use it as proof if You received My application earlier.” said Iyaz who did refrain from touching the Estuary as long as they were not married.
“ Ok...,” said Nuara then put the ring on his finger.
Then Nuara showed the ring that Iyaz had given while smiling sweetly. Iyaz smiled while
commending.
“ Beautiful like you..,” said Iyaz to make the face of Nuara again blushing.
Linda, who was sitting not far from Iyaz and Nuara, heard everything. He bears witness to the unification of the hearts of Iyaz and Nuara . Linda continued to smile while praying that the love of Iyaz and Nuara would last until death separated.
