HOLY PRISON

Chapter 21

Author POV

After choosing finally Risa's choice fell on a blue robe clear sky with a simple model and a long veil that matched her clothes and seemed to match Risa's slender body.

"Why does Risa have to wear aunt's robe?" Risa complained when she saw her appearance in front of the glass.

"Why are you beautiful using this robe?" Zahra said, smiling at Risa.

"But my aunt," said Risa who was stopped because Zahra had cut her sentence.

"already, let's go"

Cut Zahra while pulling Risa's hand and walking out of the room towards Dimas who is waiting for them on the front page.

After spending half an hour choosing and preparing Risa. Finally they went to the residence of the Zahra family. Dimas's car drove across the capital's congestion to Zahra's parents' house.

After Dimas's car arrived at Zahra's parents' yard, they came down except Risa, he was still sitting in the car. Even though his aunt and uncle got out of the car and would walk to the house.

"let's go down" Dimas said while opening the car door for Risa, Dimas looked at Risa who was still silent in the car.

"Emmm, I read it in uncle's car, I don't want to go inside, uncle, yes" Risa answered with a sad face that made Dimas confused.

"Why?" Dimas asks confused when he finds Risa who doesn't want to get out of the car.

"I'm shy, I'm wearing a skirt" Risa said while looking down.

"This is indeed a skirt, you are prettier like this. Instead you use pants that you usually wear, and you are more beautiful using this hijab to cover your head than when you use a hat"

Dimas said, staring at his nephew who was still looking down in the car.

"But uncle," said Risa who was still embarrassed.

"Don't - don't you be ashamed of Angga?"

Dimas said while trying to hold back laughter when he saw the expression of change that had occurred on Risa's face. Dimas believes that in this way Risa will want to get out of the car and want to recitation, and of course without warning Risa immediately gets out of the car after hearing Dimas's last words.

Dimas only laughed at Risa's funny behavior, The guess was correct, that Risa would definitely change her mind which at first not come along in the reading, because she heard Dimas's words that she finally chose was to agree.

Risa enters with Zahra followed by Dimas who walks behind them. A smile painted from Dimas's lips, his heart felt an unexpected explosion of happiness when he saw Risa's change that slowly walked towards the better. Not to mention the harmony of his small family. Risa, Zahra and Oma Rianty really made Dimas feel happy.

"Sa, I want to meet my mother, do you want to come along ?" Risa just nodded in response. Zahra smiled and walked looking for the figure of the mother with Risa who faithfully walked following Zahra, along with Dimas who was still faithful to follow them.

"Asalamu'alaikum ibu" Zahra said while kissing and hugging her favorite mother.

The scenery that really looks very sweet in the eyes of those who see it. Especially for Risa, there is a feeling that is close to the word jealous when she sees Zahra's closeness and also her mother. When he can feel the embrace of love from a mother, he does not know when his mother hugged his body, or maybe he never felt the embrace of a woman who had conceived her for nine months and gave birth to her with full struggle.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, baby" Zahra's mother said with a warm smile and caressed her only daughter's head.

Then after finishing his mother Zahra turned to her father. Dimas followed what his wife had done, to welcome his wife's parents, Zahra.

Likewise with Risa he also did the same thing that was done by Dimas and Zahra.

"Asalamu'alaikum auntie, uncle," Risa said to Zahra's father and mother while kissing their hands.

"Waalaikumussalam Risa, is very beautiful, oh yes, where do you go to campus, honey?" Say mamah zahra while smiling kindly.

"Alhamdulillah, I was accepted at University Indonesia, auntie" Risa answered who stood in the middle of Zahra and Dimas.

"Oh yeah ... meaning the same as Angga ... she also studied there" Said moteher Zahra while smiling warmly.

"Risa got a scholarship at Unioversity Indonesia, good yes mom," said Zahra while holding Risa's shoulder as if she expressed her pride in Risa in front of her parents.

"Oh yeah, that's good, you love"

Zahra's mother said while stroking Risa's head.

Risa just smiled in response. 'Even other people can be proud of my achievements, is it possible with my parents too?' Risa said to herself. After that Risa said goodbye to go to the backyard of a house full of flower plants, in this place Risa could feel a little calm, she was confused who should she talk to, because everyone here feels strange to Risa. if he has to keep following his uncle and aunt, he will disturb them. so Risa decides to go to the backyard, maybe seeing a flower that looks beautiful will make Risa able to get rid of a bit of boredom waiting for recitation time.

"Oh yes, said mother, she was sorry because could not come to the recitation because there was a business in Bandung" Dimas said to his mother-in-law.

"It's okay, your mother is indeed a hard worker Dim" Mother Anisa answered calmly while smiling at him.
