As Strong as the Mentari, as Soft as the Moon

Episodes 121. My Wedding Day

Seven o'clock past forty-five minutes. I'm being groomed to be Keenan's bride. Today was exactly the day Keenan had planned. At exactly eight hours the wedding ceremony will take place. I stood looking at the trees that seemed to sway in the wind. His sway was like a rhythm with the excitement and restlessness that enveloped my soul. "I beg you for help, Robby." I murmured.

"Fara, ask Keenan to meet you with Rafan. Tell me these are your terms of marriage" said Mirza of the ear phone attached to my left ear. A policewoman posing as one of the crew from the Wedding Organizer had paired it a while ago.

"Fara... Is this what you want?" said the Viennese mama who stood in the doorway. I approached him with a faint smile. "By Rafan, Ma.." I said as I gently kissed the back of his hand with reverence. "You're sure Keenan kidnapped Rafan?" asked my mom while holding my hand. "According to his confession." I said again. "alright. Mama promised to take care of you and your granddaughter" said mama as she kissed my forehead and passed. There was deep sadness at the end of his gaze. "Mama. I took a long breath. While my gaze did not escape his steps until it disappeared behind the wall. There's a rumble in this chest that I'm trying to contain so as not to become a raging storm.

I quickly closed the door tightly. Then I leaned my body against the closed door. I often breathe with my eyes closed. I'm trying to reconcile all the feelings in this chest. "You're nervous, Fara." said Mirza. "Little bit." I answered briefly. "You can Fara. I'm sure.." said Mirza again.

Geck.

Geck.

Geck.

"Miss Fara, the show's about to start. Miss can come out now." said a WO crew member. This is my chance. So Think. "I don't want to. Tell Mr. Keenan I have conditions that he must meet right now...!" lantang.

"What do you mean, baby...? What conditions should I meet" said Keenan who turned out to be at the door. He tried to force open the door, but failed. "I want to see Rafan right now...!" I said while holding the rumble in the chest.

"If I don't want to." he said. "I'm going to kill myself. I'm gonna jump through the window..!" say lie. Hearing my words, Keenan laughed. "I'm not stupid, baby. I shut the windows and threw away all the sharp objects inside. So you better get out. Don't be stupid like this...!" said it.

Deg.

I lost the word. How else should I plan for him to fulfill my request. Then my eyes caught Bripda Selvi's signal. He drowsed his head against the wall. I also nodded in a sign of understanding. "Darling. Don't be stupid" he said. "I beg you to meet Rafan with me, otherwise I will bang my head against the wall" I said from behind the door.

"Don't threaten me, Fara...!" yelled Keenan while pounding the door. Step in my step as he does that. "Find me with Rafan." I said repeatedly as I began to sleep on the wall. Not once or twice, but many times.

Dukes.

Dukes.

Dukes.

"Stop, Fara...! Don't do it again" Keenan said worriedly as a thumping sound on the wall was still heard. But this time not from my head, but from Bripda Selvi's fist. In the meantime I sat down in a doldrums. I grimaced with pain. My head began to bleed. I didn't immediately wipe it, either. It's as a testament to my treatment just now.

Ten minutes passed. There is no word on Rafan's arrival. "Darling..are you okay?" said Keenan while knocking on the door repeatedly. "Rafan.." I said with a whimper. "Why are you so reckless, baby. But you can be patient. After marriage Rafan can be directly you have" said Keenan. "But I miss him. I was so worried about him. That's why I became impatient to want to hug him" I said stalling while making him careless.

"Rafan is heading to your place" said Mirza. I was relieved when I heard it. Shortly afterwards, I heard a few footsteps. "Honey, Rafan is here." said Keenan, knocking on the door. "Call mama, honey." repeated Keenan.

"Mama.." said a boy I believe is Rafan, my son. I slowly opened the door that was locked. Meronta Rafan when she saw me. I immediately grabbed his body and clenched and kissed his puffed cheeks.

"I have fulfilled your request. Now it's your turn. Come.."he said. "Can't Rafan stay in my arms when we get married?" say me.

"Don't be greedy, Fara. Come on.." said Keenan a little annoyed. I'm speechless. My face showed a depiction of my heart drizzling at this moment. "Good...Alright. Rafan will be there when we get married. But in another room of this building. Roof... Just in case you lied to me" Keenan said, staring at me. "You.." I said furiously, rounding my eyes. Keenan threatens Rafan. I was silent too. What dayaku?

"Alright." I said lethargic and let Rafan grabbed back by mbak Min who looked at me bitterly.

I look at the departure of Rafan who was escorted by three men of stout stature. "Quiet, Fara. Now it's the turn of the officers who act to save Rafan" said Mirza.

Eight o'clock is twenty minutes. I gasped as my finger held Keenan. "Let's go.." take her in while stepping. He did not let go for a moment just hold it on my finger until the event took place. "Darling, why...?" mama Vienna said when she saw the blood on my forehead. "Ma. Let it go" said Keenan, who prevented the Viennese mama from approaching me. Apparently Keenan had become impatient.

"Fara, Rafan is safe." said Mirza. Hearing that I stood up. And that, of course, surprised Keenan. His face was red, his anger began to run through his heart. Because his desire always gets in the way.

My langakh receded a few steps away from Keenan. "Mara...Farah...!" said Keenan trying to get me. "I don't want to marry you, Keenan. You men have no heart. You're selfish, you can do your own brother's kidnap. It's sad that you're Keenan." I said in a voice trembling with tears that I couldn't stand anymore.

"I did it because I love you, Fara. Farah...!" keenan said half-cryingly as I passed right away. "Stop, Fara...!" shouted Keenan loudly along with the sound of a bullet whirring. I jerked. Not even a few guests who were present hysterically heard it. "Stop, Fara. And back in your seat. If not, then the next bullet will be lodged in your body.." kind of Keenan while spewing back the bullet. His voice was so deafening. "Akh.." I shouted.
