At exactly 2 pm, Queen is ready to welcome the arrival of Raka and her family. He who was still in the room, stared out the window. The rain was getting heavier, his heart was starting to pierce.

"It's just the Queen rain, Raka must have come," He tried to calm his worried heart.

Not long after, his hopes rose again, after hearing the roar of Raka's car engine entering his yard.

Queen peeked out of the window of her room, she saw three cars entering her yard. Some, Andra's father's aide also welcomed Raka and her family by carrying umbrellas to protect Raka and her family, so as not to get wet due to rain water.

Raka looks so handsome, using a black suit that looks expensive and neat, and a white shirt inside. Raka's hair also looks neater than usual. Because yesterday he tidied his hair in his barbershop subscription.

Queen smiled happily when she saw Raka wearing a white shirt. He immediately went to the front of the mirror and noticed his appearance that already looks perfect.

Shortly afterwards, a knock came from outside his room. He opened the door and saw Kimmy smiling at him.

"Sir, Mas Raka has arrived" Kimmy said enthusiastically.

"Yes Kim, which Mother?" Queen asked as she grabbed her perfume bottle.

"The mother is welcoming Raka Kak's family. Kaka was asked to go down by Andra's father" Kimmy explained.

"Ok, we're going down together, yes" said Queen, who was spraying perfume on her body.

Kimmy smiled and noticed her sister-in-law who looked very happy on this day.

"His father Gunawan has come?" Ask Queen again, wearing her shoes.

"Sister, just arrived. He said it was jammed. The streets are full, probably because of the rain" Kimmy explained.

"Oh, yeah, I'm ready. Come on down," said Queen.

Kimmy also led her sister-in-law down the stairs. There was a conversation between the two families in the living room. They held a friendly meeting first, to appreciate the arrival of the male family. Although this event is only attended by large families, they still follow the event procession as appropriate.

Raka glanced at Queen who was descending the stairs, which was clearly visible from the family room. He stared at his lover. Queen looks very beautiful and fresh, like a rose in bloom.

So fascinated, Raka barely blinked, until her father tried to resuscitate Raka, so as not to see Queen too much. Of course, Raka's attitude like that becomes a joke for both families.

"Well, I can't wait like this Raka boy, '" said Gunawan's father.

Raka just smirked her smile and lowered her face. Despite that, he still stole a glance at Queen. While the Queen did not dare to look at Raka. He really felt groggy. In his heart always indulges prayers so that his engagement with Raka is given smoothness by the creator.

"I mean coming here, as a real parent from Raka, want to propose to the son of Mr. Gunawan and Ms. Farah, and also Mr. Andra, who is named Queen Kruger. To that end, with humility, we ask for the consent of the Father and Mother, to approve and bind Raka and Queen in the bond of engagement." Said Raka's Father.

Gunawan's father, as the real father of Queen, grabbed the mic and started talking.

"I, as a parent of Queen, am very happy with the arrival of Nak Raka and the family, with good intentions that we have been waiting for a long time. Therefore, we as parents, give up completely to Queen, because Queen will live life with Raka."

"How's Queen?"

Queen looked at her parents. Then, he looked at the two Raka parents who were smiling expectantly to him. He also looked at Raka who was looking at him carefully and full of hope.

Queen glanced at the white shirt from behind Jas Raka. Then, he grabbed the mic that Gunawan's father gave him.

"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim, me, Queen Kruger. Don't mind being Raka's fiancee." Said Queen firmly.

"Alhamdulillah..." Calls both families. Right now, not only Queen and Raka were relieved. Both families were very relieved. So, the event continued by handing over the handover from the male side to the Queen.

After the ceremony, Raka was asked to go up on a small stage that only has a height of about seven centimeters, complete with beautiful flower decorations on the stage wall. Among the flowers, the names Raka and Queen are emblazoned. Then, followed by Queen who also took the stage.

Witnessed by the two extended families, Raka opened the ring box that Madame Amara had just given her. It is a beautiful and shiny ring from inside the box. Raka grabbed the ring and stared at the two sparkling Queen beads.

"Ready to be my fiancee?" His whispers.

Queen smiled in response to a question from Raka. Then, he nodded with certainty.

Raka smiled broadly, then she grabbed Queen's hand and slipped the ring on Queen's ring finger.

After that, it was Queen's turn to pair the ring on Raka's finger. Queen looked at Raka with eyes that looked so happy. Her happiness could not be contained until the message from her eyes was read by everyone who attended the event.

"You belong to me from now on, I ask you to hold on until we get married later" Inner Queen. Then, he grabbed Raka's hand and slipped the engagement ring on Raka's finger.
