Don't Cry Mother
JMB 05'S. Not Wrong, Just Less Appropriate

Silent face and roaring cries were heard from the room of the girl whose makeup had begun to fade. He really did not expect, the event that had been prepared in such a way suddenly failed and could even be said to be a mess. Lucky guests who came only from close family so the shame and news of the failure of the engagement did not go anywhere.

" I'm sorry I can't continue this engagement, I'm really sorry. I have to make sure of one thing first, give me time for it."

The words Yasa spoke really surprised all parties. Not only from the female side, even Yasa's father and mother and Dwilaga's extended family were shocked. Hasna fainted with what her son suddenly said.

" Simple! If not ready why ask for engagement. Don't expect rich families to be alone!"

Septian Prasojo, the father of Ciara was angry with the actions of his future son-in-law. How not to get angry, if everything that has been prepared is suddenly thwarted. Shame, definitely. At his place of work, Septian proudly said that his son would soon become the daughter-in-law of the Dwilaga family. And now, Septian felt like everything was yawning. With the annulment of this engagement, Septian felt that in the future it would not be good.

Septian just kept nagging. Laila Humaira, the wife grunted angrily at her husband. Instead of pacifying his daughter, Septian was instead busy himself with his thoughts.

" Well enough, can't you see who here hurts the most? Ciara pa."

Septian immediately looked towards the princess, from earlier the girl's cry was not over. Septian immediately approached his daughter and hugged her tightly.

" Papa's daughter, forgive papa yes son. But baby, did you make sure that Yasa really wanted this engagement?"

Ciara instantly stopped her crying. He recalled some time ago about this engagement decision. Yasa agreed to get engaged, but the man never said he was ready to get married. There were no words from Yasa asking Ciara to get married.

" Sister Yasa never asked me to get married, but she agreed when Om Radi told us to get engaged."

Septian and Laila looked at each other and both breathed out violently. If examined it looks like Yasa is not ready for this.

" In that case, Yasa might not be ready for this. Do you love her?"

Laila's question was answered with a nod of the head by Ciara. Of love? very, even during college the girl had already fallen in love with Yasa. The bright young lecturer who became a professor at his young age always smiled at anyone. Friendly and supple, every smile is able to thrill Ciara. Maybe not just Ciara but the heart of every girl who sees her smile.

" If so then show your sincerity to him. It might be true what he said that there were still things to take care of. If it's love, then be patient to wait while continuing to show your love to her."

Ciara nodded, every word that came out of her mama's lips made the girl feel calm. Ciara is determined to continue giving her love to Yasa. He actually realized that if Yasa did not have a heart for him, then his task was now to reach the man's heart. The man who is polite, friendly, and supple it turns out his heart is not as easy as his attitude.

" How about Sep? Is Ciara okay?"

" He's calmed down. Raf, Mrs Van, thank you for all the help. Mas and mbak just go home to rest. Please don't let this story go anywhere."

" Don't worry about it, just calm down. Greetings to Ciara and your wife. We'll take care of it."

As for Yasa, he of course accepted with all the anger of the father. He knew that this was all his fault.

" O Allaah Yas, how can you do such a thing huh! I asked, did you force you to do the engagement? I asked for it, but didn't I offer it to you? If you're not ready, then neither will you. But you said you were ready. But this is what! I never taught you to hurt Yas's woman."

Radi was really frustrating. That man if angry was really very scary. Andra the younger sister approached her brother and tried to calm him down.

" Sister, already. Let's talk with a cold head. Diet, cholesterol and blood sugar."

" Yushuya!!!"

Andra chuckled softly. Only Andra dared to do that to her brother. The others wanted to laugh but didn't dare so just held it back.

" Uncle!"

" Sister!'

The voices of Dika and Nataya were heard shouting together. All eyes went straight to the two fathers and son.

" Sister, we need to get Hasna to the hospital. He's having shortness of breath."

Radi was certainly surprised, his wife had indeed fainted but was awake. But why suddenly shortness of breath, even though the wife has no history of ISPA disease. Not wanting much prejudice Radi directly carried the wife followed by Dika and Nataya to go to the hospital.

Yasa's face of course immediately pias knowing the condition of the mother. He was about to run into the car but was arrested by Silvya. The aunt asked for the car keys from Yasa's hand.

" Let aunt drive. You sit on the side. Nai, take Neha and Nayaka home first. Andra bring Zanita and Zara home first. Jani, you too."

" Good Brother."

" Good Ma."

Andra, Rinjani, and Naisha nodded obediently to Silvya's instructions. They then boarded their cars and headed for their homes.

Along the way to the hospital, Yasa unceasingly prayed that her mother would be fine. Silvya could see the fear and worry in the niece's face. He then clasped Yasa's hand and gave a small nod. Saying that everything is okay.

" Aunty, is what I did wrong?"

Silvya smiled, he certainly did not know the exact reason his nephew did this. But he was sure, Yasa must have had his own reasons for doing something that surprised everyone.

" Not wrong, just not right, son. Auntie knows you must have your reasons. But you should consider a decision carefully. You're a bright young professor. You should be able to think rationally. If Yasa asks what the professor has to do with your current condition, it is clearly related. You often do case studies for your research, if you can't use your whole heart at least you can use your brain and mind to consider every decision including your future life."
