Sandra smiled slightly. He saw his reflection in the glass . The natural but elegant and neat makeup that was painted on her face made her pangling herself with herself. Tight eyelashes, black eyes, a small nose slightly pointed, and tiny lips filled with pink lipstick that makes it look fresh and beautiful. In addition to his favorite purple wara kebaya, perfectly twisted to form the curves of his body.


" Bbi Nani is the best ! " Praise Sandra.


Aunt Nani who heard Sandra's satisfaction just smiled.


" It's not a great aunt, but it's a beautiful cam ..." Said Aunt Nani.


Sandra blushed happily hearing that.


" If only now you saw Sandra bi... " Said Sandra later. His face turned gloomy.


Aunt Nani held onto both of Sandra's shoulders and looked at her gently .


" Your father saw him dear, at this time he must also be very happy. " Ati Nani said comforting Sandra.


" Yes San, uncle must be happy when he sees his beautiful son, dutiful anyway . Don't grieve. Already , already ... anyway can not be sad again , later if Bi Lastri see how ? " Holiday Nurul.

" It is settled, just waiting for the arrival of Mr. Wijaya and his family. Aunty stay first yes, aunty wants to see the other preparations finished yet . " Advanced him.


Sandra and Nurul live alone in the room. Nurul holds Sandra's hand, giving strength to her best friend. Without him wanting , tears came out from both corners of his eyes. Nurul could not help but feel sad to see the fate of his best friend.


" I'm sorry San, I can't help you ." Nurul said sadly.


" It's not papa, maybe it's my destiny like this Rul . " Sandra answered while rubbing the back of Nurul's hand.


" I hope that no matter how bad or hateful that person is to you, he will treat you well. And may you be happy always ." Nurul lirih.


Sandra couldn't answer. They hugged each other. Sharing the sadness that Sandra is feeling.


" Already, do not cry, do not be sad, you yourself said so. I'll be fine. Trust me the same. " Said Sandra.


Nurul nodded, then kissed his best friend's forehead.


Miss Lastri went into the room. And stunned to see his daughter.

Bu Lastri smiled and pulled Nurul's nose.


" Okay aunty, really in the toel anyway, later make up Nurul fade ... ! " Nurul Gerutu .


" Ha ha ha ha, "Sandra and Bu Lastri laughed together.


Once again Miss Lastri looked at her daughter.


" Don't be sad Miss "Pinta Sandra.


" No, the mother is not sad, the mother is very happy to see the mother's daughter at this time. Thank you son, thank you for being a dutiful child, even though I know, this is difficult for you . I will always pray for your happiness. May you live together and love each other. Although at this time your relationship is created because of a compulsion and a will. But I'm sure someday you'll love each other . " Said Bu Lastri.


Sandra held back her tears from crying in front of her mother.


" One more son, forgive mom, but as a parent you have to say this. From today on, you already have a bond. Although not yet a marriage, but this is the beginning of a sacred relationship. Whether you have to or not, I hope you can take care of her. And of course, from today on, respect your partner, and don't get too familiar with other men. That's not good for your relationship, of course you know what mom means. " Continue Miss Lastri.


" Good mom." Reply Sandra while looking down to cover her sadness. Sandra believes Bu Lastri advised her not to get too close to Gilang. Because who else is the man who is close to him besides Gilang.


" Aunty, Sandra .... Mr. Wijaya has arrived ! " Shouted Nurul startled.


" Yes, then mom comes out first. Nurul you take Sandra to the front ! " Mother Lastri's Order.


Sandra began to fidget, her heart pounding.


" Sandra, are you ready ? " Tanya Nurul's.


" Ehh, su already .. ! " Answer Sandra was nervous.


" Follow me, take a deep breath, take it out slowly. " Pinta Nurul, trying to calm her best friend.


Sandra followed what Nurul had just told her.


After feeling calm Sandra nodded to Nurul. Nurul swiftly guided Sandra out of the room to the living room that had begun to bustle.


Alfian looked startled as Nurul and Sandra entered the living room. Sandra looked from top to bottom without blinking. He could not believe it turned out that the hick girl could turn beautiful if dressed up. At first glance they are fighting . Soon Alfian shifted his gaze. She didn't want Sandra to know she was watching.


The event was started, starting with prayers and words of greeting from the local RT chairman, then continued with the family introduction from Pak Wijaya. Alfian's two younger siblings, Arkha and Neta, participated in the engagement. Arkha looks ordinary while Neta looks shy awkward to Sandra. Neta was surprised to find Sandra's age with her not far adrift .


There comes a time for the core event, which is the exchange of rings between Sandra and Alfian.


Sandra hesitantly put the ring on Al 's hand, as well as Al ', she put the ring on Sandra's ring finger which was met with a standing ovation.


Next, there is a photo session together. By alternating they take pictures together . There's a picture of them with Mr. Wijaya's family, and there's a picture of them with Mr. Lastri. Not to forget Nurul and Neta also took a photo together.


The photographer also directed the pose of Alfian and Sandra as they both.


The photographer asked Sandra and Alfian to take pictures in various poses as Sandra kissed Alfian's palm, and Alfian hugged Sandra's waist and looked at her with a sweet smile . Although they did it awkwardly and forcedly but the results turned out to be in accordance with the wishes of the photographer.


Finally the engagement was over . After the guests have returned . They gathered in the living room, chatting while enjoying the banquet.


" Ahem ! Thank God, today's engagement went well. Alfian, Sandra, listen to this . There is good news I want to tell you. After conferring with Miss Lastri and the elders here . Then your wedding will be on the title in two months. " Said Pak Wijaya.


" That's too fast Mr. "Timpal Sandra.


" No son, we've counted the good days. And it's falling two months from now. Your mother said, right on your nineteenth birthday. Then later, we will celebrate two happy things at once !" Said Mr. Wijaya happily.


Miss Lastri cried when she heard it. She did not expect her daughter to get married soon.


Alfian and Sandra stared at each other dislikefully.


What can I do. It's all been happening. Sandra can't back down anymore.


" For the sake of the father, for the sake of the mother.... " Inner Sandra tried hard to accept the decision.
