Floating Boat

...Three Women's...

...************...

The longer Eden lived in the city of Makassar, the more he understood the situation in the city of Daeng. Living in the region of the people gave him the meaning of freedom and meaning of meaning.

However, the shadow of Longing that Eden had not been able to forget. Sometimes he has to look at other women, choose to be a life partner. When he was about to try to fulfill his wish, the presence of Miss often came suddenly. He pierced his heart, closed his eyes, and shackled his soul in a dark, luminous room. Even though his separation with Miss has taken quite a long time.

The light was only there when the memories of dusk afternoon on his boat, he was leaning against his chest. Caught between the past times until the love that once went, lost somewhere, he was even like a white dove that was still in his cage. Persuading time to repeat the old story that once ran aground right on the dock Bugis Makassar which until now became one of the people who were seen.

Daeng Guru's message to him if Eden uses his name then he will be successful as a result proved. No matter what he was without her, even the ships that were not hers were now hers, my personal property.

As a result of an arranged marriage entrusted to her with Daeng Guru's daughter taking her on the summit, she climbs with both leg strength until Anggun is betrothed to Eden.

On the day when the invitation had been spread for our engagement, there were two women who came to congratulate but shook her life that day.

First is Miss, second is Resky, they come congratulate him. Eden almost forgot their faces back then but they reprimanded him to restore the time that had gone.

On that day, Resky just expressed his taste to him which turned out he had been storing seeds to him. While Missing, the same as if he had been betrothed to another man but still trapped in the shadow of the past.

Three women do not fight over him but force him to choose who is more suitable for him to make his life partner. This was difficult, difficult because the three women each had such beautiful faces. If they were Phinisi's ship then Eden would have chosen them all. Today, Eden has become a young man with a lot of money.

...****************...

"Eden, do you remember me ?." The beautiful Resky came to her when she was with Anggun on a chair before the ring exchange began. When the mere pantuns of the future life had a discussion with the crowd that colored the joy of the day that was almost this afternoon.

Eden was surprised to hear a subtle greeting from her right ear. As his eyes began to look to his side, he saw such a beautiful woman sitting not far from him.

The warm conversation began, they asked each other where they had been, why they had only met after their last time together at the Phinisi ship race event a few years ago.

Graceful, known as a quiet girl, not chatty and not fast, the emotion just calls Resky to join a table with them. It is good if you can find such a Wife candidate, it is not easy to suspect it is always respectful to everyone who knows Eden her future husband.

"Eden, who is he ?." Ask Graceful to her future husband.

"He's the Resky I used to tell you about. He brought me here. If it wasn't him, I wouldn't have met you."

"Sir Resky yes...?. Come sit here, brother !. Let's just relax together."

Grace never knew what would happen after this. Not to mention Missing, if Missing comes surely the situation will look tense.

The opportunity when Graceful to take something in the house. The door opened wide in front of Resky.

"Eden, I'm going to go into the house first. You accompany Resky here. Our engagement is about to begin, Eden. The ring we bought yesterday, I forgot it in the room. Wait here, yes !. Brother Resky, I'll take a moment, brother here with Eden."

Serious conversations begin. Indeed, Resky looks changed that day. He started asking where Eden had been all this time.

"Can I ask you something, Eden ?."

"Can Ky !. What do you want to ask me ? as long as I can answer it, I will answer it correctly."

"When his family misses you, you ever think of seeing me again or just seeing me."

That question because it was considered ordinary by Eden, he only gave a makeshift answer.

"You may not have noticed it Eden. When you were taken home, I just lost you. I couldn't sleep all night thinking about you. I don't know what's going on with me, as if something's missing from my body. And I thought you were married to Miss. I was shocked when I got the engagement invitation letter written on your name. When I opened and read the letter, I saw clearly that the name Eden in the invitation letter was you, the young man who used to come with me to this city of Makassar, he said, I'm so excited to see you here"_

"For there are still things I want to tell you that I have not been able to say and have told me before."

"Resky, it seems like what you want to tell me is a serious matter. I forgot what I told you. Remind me if it's something so important."

"Answer honestly Eden. Do you love your future wife now ?. Have you known him long enough ?. How do you feel about her, Eden ?."

All the questions Resky asked her made her even more inexhaustible. Eden who had looked relaxed responding to Resky's questions now grew curious. But before the question was answered, Anggun had returned with the ring he had picked up in his room.

"You guys look serious ?." Wife-to-be who don't know what they're talking about stay relaxed. Even Anggun showed the ring to be worn on Eden's finger, "brother Resky, how is this ring, fine ?. Resky knows no, this ring has been how many people who try to wear it, try the wear test on the ring finger of brother, must fit it. Eden chose a ring that was a bit loose for me."

Plain women like Anggun did not put any suspicion on Resky at all. Resky just said to Anggun, "Thank you !."

Among the question marks that passed, among the pantuns that are still beautiful to be heard by the ears and among the crowd. Resky was happy to return to his original seat. He whispered to Eden after asking for permission from Anggun.

"Fine, I'd like to ask you permission. There's something I want to tell your future husband but it's a little secret. Can I whisper it in her ear ?."

"Can !. It's up to Eden, does she want it or not ?!."

Eden only shook her head when she heard Anggun respond politely to Resky's wishes.

Among the many who saw them, among the happiness of his family Anggun, Resky began to approach Eden's ears. He spoke softly to his friend who had lost it to stab his heart the deepest.

"I want to marry you, Eden. It was raining that day, you told me, don't forget for a minute that night we're getting married when I'm about to get into my room. Instantly I turned to you with a small smile for you. Do you remember Eden ?."

His gaze brightly looked at Resky who had been sitting not far from him. Surely the happy congratulations he listened to now even shook the ark of dreams that will soon be realized.

Eden doesn't look happy. His eyes were chaotic, no longer directed. What Resky just told him was not just to bring back his past but to show himself that he had said that to Resky.

The ring exchange begins. Eden has experienced two different flavors. He began to feel alien to himself to continue this matchmaking or not. The state of his heart that is not calm is increasing roaring because of the arrival of a woman who was once the most special in his life.

Longs. Longing had arrived with a memory that Eden had not had time to take from his car. Memories that have been many years are still longing to save, memories that Eden thought might have been discarded by him.

Before Missing a seat, the clothes that were left behind, Missing to return to the person.

"This is the clothes you left in my car, I'm returning it now. Those clothes are all I see every time I miss you."

When Anggun heard the language of missing you, the state of the party and soon the ring exchange began, postponed for a few minutes. It seemed like Anggun wanted to know who the woman who dared to speak to her future husband, in front of him and in front of all these guests present.

"Who would you dare to speak to Eden like that ?. Did you deliberately want to make this engagement event void ?."

"Don't ask me, I'm just a guest who gets an invitation from her. I'm a nobody. Something that may have long disappeared even though the pearl, she did not sparkle anymore."

The recognition of Miss is not only stirring the state of the party but also seize the attention of the guests present. Eden was in a perception that could not decide which of the three women he should choose. Soon the process of changing the ring from finger to finger will begin.

Graceful known as the type of quiet girl this time seems so emotional. Anggun only pay attention to the body and face movements of the prospective fiancee.

The noise began to slowly but filled the corners of the room of his house Anggun even to the depths of the house.
