Chapter 51. Canceled

The wedding day of Djaduk Mangkulangit and Vera Nacia Minolta was held today. The whole preparation is done. All the invited guests came to see the widow's second wedding ceremony in their village. Decak awe and praise continue they give to the bride, so beautiful with her bridal outfit.

"Why is this Djaduk? Out there, the hikers are waiting. Where would I put my face if Djaduk suddenly canceled the wedding suddenly like this?" Please Vera's papa. The face of the old man looked pias paled.

The conversation took place in a guest room that was conjured into a bridal dressing room. Djaduk stared with unfriendly eyes at all. He's still relaxed not budging. Sometimes he looks at his watch.

"Mas.. Please pity me.. Also Vera my daughter.. Mom, I'm old.. I just want Vera to be happy if my wife and I are gone. And I'm sure mas Djaduk is a fit and proper man to be with my son Vera." Attempt to persuade. Cold sweat had already flooded his forehead.

"Have you?" Tanya Djaduk stood up from his seat.

"What's already mas? Mas Djaduk would have said that he was joking.. It's okay, sometimes we also need entertainment just a nervous release. Yep.. I know Djaduk mas joking because nervous about doing ijab later, right mas?" Trying to calm down by saying that.

Djaduk smiled but, not a smile of excitement that appeared. A mocking smile. It can be seen now how haughty Djaduk is today. He was satisfied to see his papa Vera begging him like that.

"Talked? Now it's my turn to say, you're just horrified." That heavy voice sounded intimidating.

"I wanted to introduce myself in more detail.. You only know me as Djaduk Mangkulangit right? Entrepreneurs who have unlimited wealth so you think if all my wealth will be able to prosper you and your child?" Djaduk started talking.

"But did you find out where my wealth came from? Nah! I'm sure you didn't do that, because to you the most important thing is a treasure?! Don't you?"

Her father Vera silently heard all Djaduk's words that sounded like he was judging her.

"Cokro Hadiningrat, your dead daughter-in-law.. Even before she died, you and your wife always prayed for her death during the night. So what? So that you may rule over Hadiningrat's entire fortune."

"not mas.. You're wrong, I-"

His papi Vera's speech came to a halt as Djaduk's palm was raised hinting to silence. Vera's parents were following. He was silent for a moment.

"I told you. Shut up, I'm talking! Even that simple word you don't understand hmm?"

"I don't want to explain at length. Because I think it'll all be for nothing. My final decision hasn't changed, I'm canceling this marriage. I'm going first. And one more.. All the party costs are still me. Let's just say it's my kindness to your family. Good day." The man stepped out of the room.

Leaving his papa Vera sitting limp on the floor. Whatisthis? How he explained to all the invited guests and his family later, while he himself did not know what reason Djaduk thwarted his marriage.

During this time Vera's parents were too trivial a Djaduk, the tyrant twisted man was easily willing to accept his proposal to marry his son, he said, without thinking what reason makes Djaduk that easy to agree with their wishes. They just thought that Djaduk was already fascinated at first glance at Vera.

"Keep now how pi... I don't want to go out to see guest Pi, I'm ashamed." Vera's mom is crying. She was saddened by the embarrassment she would get if everyone knew if the groom-to-be canceled the wedding unilaterally right on her wedding day.

"She said the name Cokro.. And ask where the wealth Djaduk got at this time.." Vera's papa.

"Pi!! It is not important to know not, want him rich results of vane, mopping, begal, rob, double money though, I do not care!! The most important thing now is how do we talk to the people up ahead if this marriage is off!!" Snapped Vera's mom.

"Djaduk really-has made us ashamed pi.. What a human being is made of is like having no conscience!!"

Vera's mom is crying. She was sad, her dream of having a rich ghost but being easily driven by it later, had vanished. He was embarrassed, more so he could not face the gossip of the citizens and relatives at another time.

"Udah.. This might be the best thing for Vera. Vera has the right to choose the best mate for herself.. Mi from here we should even realize that what we want will not always be able to get when everything is in sight.. But look, God planned something else for Vera for us, too.." Papi Vera is trying to win his wife over.

"Pi.. Not the time for papi's talk!! I'm dizzy with the horror!!"

Vera's papa came out of the room. The old man saw the guests who had to greet him, someone asked where the groom was, why not also at the start of his ijab qobul event, there are many questions that none of them have answered.

His eyes met with Netra Vera, his son who now looks so ayu. His path was paved to approach his daughter.

"Why pi?" Vera's question caught the irregularity on the face of her papi.

"You're beautiful Ver." That smile looks very forced.

Ver.. Are you happy?" Ask Vera's papa later.

"I did all this for papi sama mami's sake. What happiness is like, it feels happy how I do not want pi.." Vera turned her face. Eyes dewy. She bit her lips to hold back the tears from falling.

"I'm sorry mommy is papi ya Ver.. We're a lot wrong with you.."

After finishing that sentence, his papi Vera collapsed. He fainted. Vera and many people there were shocked, trying to get close and help the old man.
