The Village Girl is not Cinderella
Proposal Day
Abhimanyu paced back and forth in his room. "Ndo let's have dinner first" shouted the mother from outside.
Abhimanyu came out of his room towards the dining room. He sat in front of his mother while his father was at the side.
"What are you thinking?" ask Father. Abhimanyu took him "Father and Mother know Adinka his son, Mr. Rama, right. It's fine if Abi proposes to her"
Abhimanyu's words shocked his parents. "Are you seriously going to propose to someone's child?" ask Father.
"Abi actually likes Adinka sir and next week he will go to the city to study there" explained Abhimanyu. "The father agrees it looks like he's a good son" said the father.
"When what's mother?" ask Father. Abhimanyu's mother still thinks with her son's will.
"Bu Abi beg our blessing yes" Abhimanyu pleaded.
"But you said he wanted to go to college in town is that okay?" ask Mother.
"Maybe for a while Dinka I applied first ma'am and to get married after Dinka graduated later" Abhimanyu explained.
His mother nodded with a smile. Actually Abhimanyu's mother also likes Dinka. This woman is beautiful and smart.
Dinka already knows her mother Abhimanyu because she often helps in activities in posyandu and some other activities.

That afternoon the Dinka family prepared all the needs for his application. His relatives helped. If in the village gotong royong and harmony between neighbors is still very thick.
Dinka also prepared the food. He didn't want to sit on his hands just looking.
"What time is it, why isn't it ready?" auntie said. Dinka was pushed away from the kitchen. He must be ready.
There's someone delivering batik clothes for Dinka. Bella received the shirt. He threw his shirt at Dinka.
Abhimanyu is neat with batik and peci clothes. He bought a pair of batik clothes with Dinka.
The day he proposes to the heart will come. His heart beats unbecoming.
Abhimanyu's family arrives at Dinka's house. Abhimanyu was amazed to see a very beautiful Dinka. Polished with a little makeup but Dinka already looks beautiful.
Even a simple application went well.
Siti who will get the daughter-in-law of a village chief is very proud. He can show off to the people around the house.
Unlike Bella who throughout the application event only scowled to see her sister happy.
"Why the hell is it always that Dinka's sister gets what I want" Bella grumbled. Rama saw Bella enter the room by closing the door very hard.
He approached his youngest daughter who was in the room. "You didn't help me clean up?" ask Rama. "Males Pak Bella wants to sleep" he said ketus.
Dinka though his stepson but Rama loves Dinka more than his biological son. Because Dinka is more obedient and manageable.
"Mother rest for others let Dinka clean up" Dinka led her mother to sit down. Seen on the face of his mother was very tired.
"You clean everything up" his mother said. Dinka.

A sunny morning Dinka went to the market to shop for vegetables. This time he went to the market with his future mother-in-law.
"Today help you cook at home" Abhimanyu's mother said.
"Yes ma'am" Dinka smiled. They shop for a lot of vegetables. Arrive at the prospective in-laws house. Dinka put her vegetables on the kitchen table.
"Today her sister Abhimanyu who works in the city will go home, so to welcome her we will cook a lot" said the future Mother-in-law.
Dinka started washing vegetables and cutting seasonings. She was busy cooking with her future father-in-law.
"Taste you good huh" the praise from the future mother-in-law made Dinka blush in embarrassment. "No ma'am" said Dinka.

Abhimanyu came home from work to meet Dinka who was still busy preparing food. "Neng" call Abhimanyu.
"Ambilin mas eat yes, mas hungry" pinta Abhimanyu smiled seductively.
Dinka brought food for Abhimanyu. He sat in the dining room chair. Abhimanyu house is quite large when compared with the house around it. The house is also good when in the village.
The sound of the door rang out. Dinka opened the door. Abhimanyu followed Dinka behind.
"Welcome to Abinyu" Abhimanyu hugged her brother.
"This is your future wife?" ask Abinyu. "Yes" replied Abi.
Dinka greets and shakes hands with her future sister-in-law. "Mas lost to you" Abinyu elbowed her sister's body.
Evening has arrived. After talking with his parents Abinyu invited his sister to play chess on the porch of the house.
Adinka is still in her future husband's house. She brought coffee to her husband-to-be and brother-in-law.
"Nih mas I make coffee please drink" said Dinka with a soft tone. "Thank you" said Abhimanyu.
Adinka bamit return home delivered by her future husband. Tomorrow Dinka must prepare to go to the city.
