HIJRAH LOVE
A Surprise

As I momentarily stared at the unblinking pair of eyes, I hesitated even more to step on my feet and meet him immediately. However, the tight grip of Yulian's hand had given me strength. Which now makes me ready to face the utterance that there may be a sense of rejection about the light in him.

"Sit you! Papa wants to talk important." Pinta papa Adhi to me and Yulian while looking at us from the end of the door.

"Yes, Pa." I answered along with Yulian.

Me and Yulian finally sped up our steps, then puked our bottoms on the seats already available there. And before starting the conversation between us, not long after the bik Inem came while carrying a tray containing light snacks and sweet tea and warm coffee served as a dish in our discussion later.

"Thank you, Inem!" i'm polite.

For a moment Yulian and Papa Adhi brewed a warm coffee that had been served by Inem's bik earlier. After that, Adhi raised his voice and asked us about the background of Light. Even papa Adhi asked about how could Light and Arjuna get to know each other. Because previously no one knew even told him that Arjuna had a lover who would soon be betrothed by him. So the news of Arjuna's marriage made Papa Adhi feel surprised. In the end, Adhi's father was unable to attend Arjuna's wedding, due to his work abroad.

"Papa wants to talk about the light. Surely you know what things Papa will ask you. So now, explain to Papa how Arjuna knew the Light that had such a condition!"

"Emm .. here, Pa. Yulian also did not know for sure, as Yulian heard this was also impromptu. Aisha knows for sure about the Light." Yulian said, then looked at me.

For a moment I was silent, trying to arrange myself to be able to seduce and not make a fuss that I did not want. And after I took a deep breath, I tried to raise my voice and explain everything to Papa Adhi with a soft word and did not reduce the sense of courtesy in speaking.

"Pardon Aisha before, if Arjuna's marriage with the Light was so quick for Papa and also Mas Yulian. But ... According to Aisha this is much better than later will lead to a slander that is hated by Allah. About the background of Light, Mas Yulian also already knew that Light was born from a simple family. And now, Light has no parents anymore, only an uncle has. Aisyah sense, that is enough that we should know about the Light, because for Aisyah it is not too important to know the personality of others as far as possible. After all, what we see together, Light is a good girl for Arjuna. And God willing, the Light is able to be the wife of the sholehah for Arjuna. Because for Aisha, it was the most important thing of a marriage_not degrees, possessions and thrones." Obviously I was in a firm tone without any hesitation.

I try to be calm in making a decision. And I think it's true that degrees, possessions and thrones are not a guarantee of a happy marriage. However, trusting each other and having the same goal in the household is the most important thing, especially in the migration to His heaven. And after hearing my explanation, for a moment papa fell silent while looking at me with Yulian alternately. Because I did not want a misunderstanding to occur, I also returned to voice.

"Emm, sorry in advance if Asiyah's statement has offended Papa, but according to Aisyah it is enough. Because Aisha and Mas Yulian did not want Arjuna to fall into a sin that might have been a great sin. So, Aisyah supported Arjuna's decision to marry at that time. Once again, Aisyah apologized to Papa, for making up her mind without consulting Papa first." I'm trying to apologize to Papa Adhi.

"Yulian agrees with Aisyah's decision, Pa. Because according to Yulian himself, about the physical, degrees, treasures and thrones can be weakened at any time. But different if, mutual trust in the household is there, then there will be nothing that can separate them except death" continued Yulian.

Those pair of eyes were still staring at me sharply. However, this self felt no hesitation in continuing to support Arjuna's marriage to the Light after Yulian supported me in all my decisions that approved of their marriage. Not long after that the unexpected happened. Which makes me and Yulian inexhaustible, never even crossed my mind over what was thrown from his lips.

"Papa is proud of you! This is what Papa was waiting for. Papa wants to test what you're looking for out of everything you've got. And now that Papa knows it, it is the happiness of your children that you give priority to. And your decision is Ayesha, Papa agrees." Reveal papa Adhi while portraying a smile widened from his lips.

The heart and self that had been worried, now no longer felt such a thing. It was precisely peerless happiness that approached me upon hearing Papa Adhi's decision. And this is what papa Adhi likes, the attitude and the wise nature is always inherent and even embedded in him. Which makes me proud to have a father-in-law like my own birth father.

"Papa sure approves of Aisha's decision?" many ensure.

"Of course, Aisyah. Papa was just acting so that you answer the truth as to what. Not a mere match, but pure love has stopped in Arjuna's heart. And Arjuna's attitude that is able to accept all the shortcomings of his partner, Papa sure it must be because of your upbringing! So, Papa is proud of you!"

Papa Adhi nodded slowly to return my gratitude to him. Because so happy this self, I never stop to kiss the back of my father-in-law's hand. It even made him laugh because he saw my behavior. However, I cannot deny how happy I feel if, all my family has given blessing to Arjuna's marriage with the Light.

"Wait first! Papa still has things that Papa wants to tell Arjuna and the Light, so Papa asks you Aisha for help, to call them to Papa." Papa Adhi said happily.

"Alright, Pa! Aisha will call them,"

I say goodbye to Yulian and Papa Adhi to call Arjuna with Light. Impatiently, I ran to get to Arjuna's room and met him. Not long after that I also knocked slowly the door of Arjuna's room which was tightly closed. And five minutes later Arjuna opened the door for me.

"immies? Why, Mi?"

"Are you and the Light currently busy?"

"Emm .. No really, Mi! But, what's the need?"

"Grandpa you want to talk so, meet him first!"

Without further ado, I immediately said the request of Papa Adhi who wanted to meet Arjuna with Light. Likewise with Arjuna, he also agreed after I said it. After that, I went back to see Papa Adhi along with Arjuna and Light. Where papa Adhi and Yulian are now moving into the living room.

"Sir,"

Arjuna did not forget to greet his grandfather back in a polite tone. After that, Arjuna and I sat on the soft sofa to enjoy the most comfortable place for us. And not long after that papa Adhi voiced out to start a conversation that was somehow about what it was. Which makes me curious and a little worried back stop in this self.

"Grandfather wants to surprise Grandpa's granddaughter's wedding. Because grandfather knows, Grandpa has a mistake, and that mistake is Grandpa who can't attend your wedding. So, these two tickets are for your honeymoon and vacation there." Said papa Adhi while thrusting two sheets of paper to Arjuna.

Arjuna momentarily fell silent while staring at the two sheets of paper that were now in front of him. While Yulian and I were wide-eyed because this had never been planned before. Papa Adhi really blessed Arjuna's marriage to the Light, even Papa Adhi never sneered or made fun of the physical disability of the Light.

"Grandfather sure this is for Arjuna and the Light?" ask Arjuna to make sure.

"True, tomorrow you will go there. This is a surprise for you!"

"Thank you, Cake! Juna is happy to have Grandpa Adhi, who always makes Juna happy. Juna was truly grateful for this great surprise!"

The truly happy smile of every human being was painted on their lips. I feel so happy and have the perfect family. Where between them perfect each other, make each other happy, complement each other and many more things happen every day. Even today there is still one surprise that amazes me with what I hear and see.
