"Dad! Can my match be cancelled? I don't love him Dad." I beg Dad.

"Love can come with Sella's time" he replied firmly.

"Father wants the best for you, Alvano Fahrizi he's a good man, his life is well established. What else are you looking for?" continue Dad.

"But I don't love him well" I argued.

"Love? Then who do you love? The guy who drove you home yesterday?" tanyakanya.

"Yes Dad" I replied firmly.

"Forget him, what can you expect from a man like him, his body alone is full of tattoos. I don't like you being in touch with him, so I'll be setting you up with a nice guy instead of Anu."

"Ardio Father, not the Anu" I defended.

"Whatever his name is Dad doesn't care"

"And you know about the si-anu, he doesn't deserve you Sella. Life not only needs love, you need someone who is loyal and able to protect you, while he is far the opposite of all that. A man who only spends his time with a joke. How he can support you and make you happy Sella. I don't want your life to be miserable and you're sorry you chose it"

"Adio's father has changed, he's not like that anymore, he's now learning to change himself better. Please Daddy! Give us a chance so we can prove we deserve each other."

"No Sella! I'm not giving you my blessing with that jerk. Enough is! Your brother's going through a sad thing. It was painful for Dad to see his son suffer, and I regret letting him marry that choice. And look now your brother is cheated on, left without supporting his children. You know, Sella turns out all this time, she's been working on her own needs. I don't want you to have a husband like that."

"Dad, not everyone is the same. Please give us a chance."

"Don't argue anymore, tomorrow the Fahrizi family will come to propose to you. So your gut and your attitude, don't let this matchmaking event fail Sella."

I can no longer afford to refuse, something you have decided will not be easy for us to refute. Moreover, the reason was very strong.

Dinner is ready, time is almost eight o'clock, soon the Fahrizi family will arrive. I have remained silent in the room since my argument with Dad. To eat the aunt who delivered.

In the room I cried in silence, and thought about how to thwart this matchmaking or how I could tell Ardi about it.

"Sella, get down! Fahrizi's family has arrived" said Brother Mela behind my bedroom door.

"She wait a minute"

The dinner banquet was so awkward for me, I just answered the question with a smile that I forced. I'm more interested in hearing the sound of the spoon clanging against the plate than my parents talking to the Fahrizi family.

We finished eating dinner my family and the Fahrizi family discussed our matchmaking and the next month the event will be held soon.

Alvano Fahrizi he's my candidate, he's a classmate at High School he's so polite and looks so good, I think a guy as handsome as him, well-established, polite and kind will easily melt my heart.

With a little faith and pressure from my father I finally agreed to this matchmaking.

The day I met Ardi to break our relationship, which is not really bound, because I asked Ardi to change and improve his attitude first we can establish a relationship.

"Sella, next week I'm going to perform on one of the TV stations, they've signed us" he said with his eyes twinkling, his dream will soon be achieved to become a singer.

I am so glad to hear it in my heart that I wish him all the best.

"Ar, you must always be happy and be a better person, either without me or with me by your side"

"Sel, I must have changed and I will show you that I am worthy of you, wait for me" as her hands clasped mine.

I was only able to reply with a grin, there was pain in my heart. I have a lot of words to say but time doesn't give me a chance, I have a hard choice.

My marriage to the concert was the same, I didn't want to because I was all broken, enough of a broken heart, at least there was a dream that was soon to be achieved that was waiting for him.

Forgetting me might be easy for him, like he was the one who changed partners easily.

The wedding day came, everyone seemed happy except me. A smile still had to be etched on my face, entertaining the guests present, and thanking them for their presence. The hotel where the wedding is so crowded, so many guests I don't know.

Most of the guests were from the Fahrizi family, while I only invited my little family and some college and high school friends.

My tears began to not bear to fade, soaking my cheeks. His eyes looked at me with wounds, standing not far from the stage. His sweat splashed on his temple, as if thousands of miles had passed through it to get here.

Out of nowhere he knew about my wedding, I only invited a few of my close friends to one major. Because we're different majors and buildings, and he's not too familiar with my flat-out friends either.

His eyes pierced the recesses of my heart, he was still there, silent, his eyes began to glaze over.

I who avoided the look in his eyes still could not hold back my tears, whether anyone realized or not the tension between the two of us.

Sometimes I keep making sure he still stands still there, no matter how long he spends looking at me in the guarantee.

The tone sounded sad, slashing my heart which was bitter adding to my deep wounds, it was painful and poignant.

I thought she was gone, but she stood there offering songs for the bride. As tight as I can't stand, soon my defense will be destroyed in front of hundreds of pairs of eyes in this party room.

I asked Vano for permission, saying that I was getting dizzy and could no longer stand up. She readily embraces my waist and leads me to the hotel room that has been prepared for our bridal night.

The song was more and more heart-wrenching, I walked a little trembling withstanding the deep guilt. Vano occasionally asked me how I was.

"Are you okay" he asked.

I just nodded in my head. When I tried to steal a glance towards Ardio, he was wiping away the trace of his tears.

The rumble in my chest grew to become me half running towards the nearest bathroom, dragging my dress, and ignoring Vano's worried panic.

From behind the door Vano's voice rang out, questioning my circumstances, I replied that I was a little cold from exhaustion.

The song verse still melted in the bathroom room, I cried stifled, my chest heaved heavily, my tears as much as I could bear so as not to flow much.

Today is a special day for two families. What will the guests think of seeing the bride come out of the bathroom with puffy eyes and worn-out face ornaments. That's what I was thinking of distracting myself and holding back my tears of wanting to freefall.
