"I gave you a second chance. If you still want to continue our relationship, you have to propose to me again" Ella said while still staring at Kairi.


Kairi gasped in shock, spontaneously he immediately smiled as he held both of Ella's shoulders.


"You're serious Gabriella?" ask Kairi.


"Yes." replied Ella while nodding.


Without saying a word, Kairi hugged Ella tightly. The woman he loved so much, and missed so much, has now received it back.


"Thank you Gabriella, I won't hurt you again. I promise, I will prove how much I love you. Thank you Gabriella." said Kairi as she rubbed Ella's hair gently.


Ella did not reply, but she carved a sweet smile on her lips, and she also returned Kairi's embrace. The man she had always missed, was now back in her arms. Even though he said he would never return, his heart could not be compromised. Let him lower his self-esteem a little bit, about love, sometimes it can defeat logic.


"I'm glad you're finally getting back together!" yelled Andra as she poured into their arms.


"You must always be together, and never part again. Promise yes" Andra said as she patted Kairi on the shoulder, and Ella with both hands.


"Thank you Ndra" Ella replied with a smile.


"Your happiness is everything to me El, I'm hurt enough. You must be happy." Andra's inner self while returning Ella's smile.


"Gabriella, I will definitely propose to you again, but not now. Mama called, said there was an important meeting at the office, and Andra and I should be there. It's okay, if the application is postponed first, the time is up" Kairi said while staring at her watch.


"It turns out more important work than me." Ella's inner self in her heart.


"It's okay, go!" ella answered while trying to smile.


In fact deep in his heart, he felt very disappointed. He hopes Kairi will propose to him in a romantic way like before, but it turns out Kairi was even saying goodbye to leave.


"I go first, be careful. I'll see you later." said Kairi as he walked away. And Andra, he also went in Kairi's footsteps.


Ella looked at their departure with her lips. A little irritated by Kairi's attitude that left her just like that.


"Where's kairi?" ask Garrison who suddenly stood next to Ella.


"It's gone." Ella replied in annoyance.


"You let her down, El, you turned her down again?" ask Garrison.


"Come on, let's go home!" take Ella with you while you walk away.


Inevitably the Garrison, and Ariel followed him from behind.


Ella got into Ariel's car, she sat in the back seat. Soon enough, Garnis and Ariel also get into the car. They sat next to the front seat.


"I'm here it's okay El" said Garnis as he put his seatbelt on.


"It's okay, ma'am." replied Ella.


Ariel starts driving, they get out of the hospital yard, and they start sliding towards Ella's house.


"Mas, Ardi just had a chat, she said, Mom dropped off the groceries. It's okay if you stop by shopping first" said Garnis while showing his cellphone screen.


Ariel glanced at the glance, and then refocused on the street in front of her.


"Well, we'll go shopping for a while" Ariel replied.


"It's okay to shop for a while, I'm thin" Garnis said, looking back at Ella.


"Yes, it's okay. But I'll just wait in the car." replied Ella.


"Yes" said Garrison with a smile.


The car kept going, and all the way Ella just kept quiet as she folded her arms around her chest. Somehow it felt like he was very disappointed, when Kairi just left him without proposing to him first. Then why did Kairi apologize to her, and beg to come back with her. If it turns out that it is still more important work, than him.


"If he hadn't proposed to me by tomorrow, I wouldn't have given him a second chance. It's nice to wait like this, it sucks." Ella grumbled in her heart.


Shortly after, the car slowly stopped in front of the shopping center. Garrison and Ariel get ready to get out of their car.


"We stay for a while El, don't go anywhere, stay here" Garnis said, staring at Ella.


"Yes, Mother."


"You want to drop something El?" ask Ariel.


"No Mas." replied Ella while shaking her head.


"Then we go first."


"Yes." Yeah."


Garnis and Ariel start to step out leaving Ella alone in the car. Ella looked at the crowd of people passing by around the shopping mall. Ella let out a long sigh, and threw it away violently. His heart is uncomfortable.


Ella reached into her pants pocket, and grabbed her phone. There was no message from Kairi. Ella turned her lips again, wanting to contact Kairi, but she felt ashamed.


"I can't reach her before she calls me first." Ella grumbled as she put her phone back down.


He looked back out the window of his car. But even though he looked there, his mind was still left in the hospital. The memory of Kairi kept spinning in his brain. About how the man apologized to her, asked her to come back, hugged her gently, and ended up leaving her just like that.


"Why are you making me fret like this Kai!" ella shouted while holding her head. It felt like he wanted to cry alone, the apology from Kairi right now was like a hollow hope for him.


It's been two hours Ella's been sitting alone in the car. But Garnis and Ariel have not yet revealed the trunk of his nose. I don't know what shopping he bought, why so long. Many times Ella snorted in annoyance, her heart was already uneasy, and her two brothers instead made her wait this long. Really a really shitty day.


About an hour later, Garnis and Ariel had already returned. They got into the car with a bag of groceries. Ella looked at him while rolling her eyeballs in a careless manner.


"Actually the shopping is just a little, but why so long. It makes me even more annoyed." Ella grumbled in her heart.


"Sorry El, it was a little difficult to find the goods, had to go around in circles first just met. And because of that, you've waited a long time" Garnis said, staring at Ella.


"Not long, Ma'am, just a minute." replied Ella with a sweet lips.


The garrison no longer spoke, he knew that his sister was irritated. Ariel started driving her car out of the shopping mall.


The car continued to drive down a fairly solid highway. Ariel could not increase his speed, so they took longer to get to Ella's house.


At exactly 14:00 Ariel's car stopped in front of Ella's house. Ella was a little surprised when she saw three cars parked next to her house. The car looked a little familiar, but Ella could not remember who the owner of the car was.


"Are there guests, ma'am?" ask Ella to the garrison.


"I don't know El either, I just came with you" replied the Garrison.


"Yes we have entered, later we will know who the guest is." said Ariel while opening the car door, and then stepped down.


Ella and Garnis got out of the car. The three of them stepped together into the house. Ella couldn't guess who the guest was. But when he was already on the doorstep, he gasped in shock when he heard a woman shouting while looking at him.


"Well that's it the bride has come!" nadhira shouted while standing up, and looked at Ella.


Ella's stunned, bride?


What does Nadhira mean, why is he here, and who is getting married. Without saying a word, Ella swept her gaze across the room. There was his mother, there was Gilang, Arga, Ardi, Vino, Nadhira, Pak Louis, Bu Mirna, Andra, two foreign men, and Kairi.


Ella's gaze locked on Kairi. The man sat down beside Andra. Wearing black trousers, a white shirt combined with a black suit. And there was also the hunchback he was wearing on his head. What the hell does this mean?


"I will propose to you now, and at the same time I will also justify you" Kairi said as she clasped Ella's hand.


Ella opened her mouth, she could not believe what was happening. Kairi is going to marry her, right now, this instant, Oh My God what's on her mind.


"What do you mean Kai!" scream Ella.


"You gave me a second chance, and you want me to propose again. Now I'm going to propose to you, baby, and justify you. Mother, Mas Gilang, and their Garnis Ma'am have agreed, so you can't possibly reject me dear." said Kairi.


"It's Kai's wedding, not a game. We need a plan, you can't do it all of a sudden like this" Ella said.


"We've been planning it since we were in London baby, you haven't forgotten, have you?"


It's true they've been planning weddings since they were in London. But, given her separation yesterday, Ella did not expect that her marriage would be this fast.


"I promised you that in one week I would bring my parents here. And now it's been exactly one week baby, I'm not breaking a promise. I have now brought Mama Papa here, and they will be witnesses to our marriage" Kairi said with a smile.


Ella was speechless, she closed her eyes while sighing. All of this was unbelievable, all of this was like a dream to him.


"El let's go in, take a shower and get ready. Poor sir, the predecessor has been waiting for this." said Garnis as he approached Ella.


"The Garrison Master knows yes." Ella grumbled.


"Have not said much, you are also glad that Kairi came here, and married you. I know why you were so much, because Kairi left you, and didn't tell you" Garnis said.


Ella's cheeks flushed, Garnis could have said all that in front of Kairi, and in front of a crowd. It feels so shameful.


And without much said Ella immediately stepped away, and headed to the bathroom.


A few minutes later Ella came out of the bathroom, and headed to her room. The garrison was already there.


"Wear this El!" said Garnis while thrusting a white color gamis complete with her hijab.


"This is whose shirt is Ma'am?" ask Ella.


"That's your shirt, which I just bought earlier." replied the garrison.


"It turns out that Madam Garnis already knows, but why don't you tell me." Ella grumbled.


"Resert the same to your husband later. I'm just following her plan, to give you this surprise. It's been a quick change of clothes, later after that I dandy." said Garnis.


Without giving an answer, Ella began to wear her robe. Very fit in his body, not too great nor too small. There is a lace decoration on the front, simple but very beautiful.


"Let's sit here!" garrison said while pointing at the chair in front of his dressing table.


Ella said she sat in the chair, and let the garrison comb her hair.


Ella's hair was simply tied up simply, as it would later be covered with a headscarf. And now Garnis is applying Ella's face with a slightly thick makeup. While the garrison was busy decorating Ella, suddenly the door was knocked from the outside.


"Lake in!" shout Garrison.


The door of the room opened, it was Kairi who came. He smiled as he stepped closer to the Garrison, and Ella.


"Gabriellas!" call Kairi.


"What's wrong?" ella asked while glancing at Kairi.


"What do you want to dowry?"


Ella was silent for a moment, yet she had no time to think about the dowry. Because she didn't expect that her marriage would be this fast.


"I'm still confused by Kai" Ella said slowly.


"I actually bought you a bracelet. But I didn't know you'd like it or not. If you want another dowry, just say it, I'll prepare it" Kairi said.


"Well, that's all Kai, nothing else." replied Ella.


"You sure you don't want anything else?" ask Kairi.


"No." replied Ella while shaking her head.


"alright. Gabriella I'm sorry, now I'm marrying you in a simple way. But after this I promise, I will prepare a big party to celebrate our happy day" Kairi said with a smile.


Ella's cheeks turned red, as she stared at Kairi's smile through the mirror reflection.


"Don't overdo Kai" Ella said slowly.


"I'm not overreacting. Yes, then I go first, yes, I wait outside" Kairi said as she stepped her foot.


"Yes." replied Ella.


"It's over soon Kai." said Garnis while putting lipstick on Ella's lips.


About five minutes later, the garrison finished decorating Ella.


Ella looked at her reflection in the mirror, very beautiful. With a white robe, and a hijab that is also white. Her face was smeared with a slightly thick make-up, with red lips blushing. Ella looked down with a smile.He would show her makeup to her future husband. Ahh it still feels like a dream, it still seems to believe, if he really will marry Kairi.


"Come on El, don't keep smiling!" take Garnis with Ella's hand, and take her out of the room.


In the living room Kairi waited for his future wife with a pounding heart. He prayed that his marriage would go well.


And before long, the garrison had already arrived while holding Ella's hand. Kairi's heart was beating rapidly, as she stared at Ella's extremely beautiful face.


"With such white clothes, she looked like an angel. O Allah send forth my qabul Ijab, that this beautiful angel may be my wife." Kairi said with a smile. Her heart beat faster, as Ella sat beside her.


"You're so pretty El, but baby that beauty isn't for me. Although it's heavy, but I'm trying to let go. Your happiness is everything to me El." Andra's inner self sighed.


Then the garrison covered both of their heads with a long white veil. Then he sat down next to his mother.


"Is everything ready?" ask pak penghulu.


"Have." answered them all at the same time.


"All right, then we start now. Who's guardian?" ask pak penghulu.


"I Sir." replied Gilang.


"Father what's his name?"


"Said."


"Alright Mr. Gilang, I will ask you. You chose resignation, and entrusted everything to me. Or do you want to marry her off on your own with my guidance?"


"If allowed, I want to marry her myself with the guidance of the Father" replied Gilang.


"Thank God, that's a good choice. I will definitely guide you." said the ruler with a smile, then he told Gilang. How, and what is the sentence to carry out ijab qabul.


After Gilang understood, they all said basmallah together. And then Gilang started shaking Kairi's hand.


"I marry you Kairi Da Vinci Bin Louis Da Vinci, to Gabriella Tamara Bint Almarhum Prasetyo, with a dowry of ten grams of gold paid in cash" Gilang said in a loud voice.
