...Stop at the wedding...

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

It was clearly a banner on the side of the road leading to the MTC. Banners that read safe passage of new life turned out to attract the attention of Eden.

He told Miss to get the car pulled aside on the side of the road. The festive-looking wedding turned out to not only invite the attention of Eden but every road user who passed by would definitely stop at the party.

Shortly after Eden and Miss had stopped their car, they got into the party environment. In that environment, they were accosted even in herbal medicine.

Something interesting about the wedding. When he saw his bride Eden to shed tears as well as Miss.

The bride is a disabled person who has mental limitations.

Seeing the bride and groom who were far from harmony, Miss asked the guests who were nearby.

"Sir, can I ask you a question ?."

"Can you ask what ?." Answer the guest.

"Has this marriage been arranged or what ?."

"I also know less. All I know is that the two brides don't know each other. They met once and got married. The man is the son of the original sailor of Banteng while the woman is native to Makassar. The woman lives not far from the Mandala monument near here. Women are not normal but yes the name of a mate certainly will not go where. Usually men in today's times when meeting a girl, first he saw the face, posture, height and words. Number one is his face"_

"If her face is beautiful then all the size categories that attract the eyes of men are themselves ruled out. But the guy who got married tonight, he's the other one too. According to some of the guests who were present tonight. Their wedding in motori because of the bridegroom's admiration for the bride. At first glance, at that time, his bridegroom came to Makassar to take his family for a walk. In a small roadside place not far from the Unismuh campus. He saw a physically disabled woman. Her legs no one is selling hair ties. The man then came to him, he asked why he became a seller while the situation was not possible"_

"Maybe it was because the woman's answer touched the man's heart, until the man finally decided to marry her."

"What is the woman's answer ?." Looks like Miss is curious about the story of the couple today.

Because of the preoccupation of hearing the story, Miss to forget that Eden is no closer. The new miss realized after seeing Eden go up to the party stage congratulating the two brides.

The second family of the bride, especially the woman, already knew Eden. So when Eden went up to the stage to offer a congratulatory prayer, Eden was given Mike. The bride's family hopes that Eden can say one word and two words of prayer for both brides including the invitation present. Eden's words were clear when he spoke to the bride and groom, "may you live happily in the afterlife, the audience is happy too, I also want to get married soon."

The invited guests and everyone guaranteed him "Aamiin ya rabbal alamin !."

I missed being so happy when I heard Eden speak so in public. Longing never thought that the person he loved who was in his condition had not improved could be willing to marry.

The novelty of Longing is not only caused by the condition of the bride who thinks their marriage is really the will of God but also haru when hearing Eden, he said, the man she loves is still thinking about when she will get married.

All the guests who also heard that hope, they clapped their hands.

"Why Eden didn't want to come down from the stage the bride and groom finished giving prayers, congratulations. She's sitting in the bridesmaid's seat ?." Speak to someone not far from the existence of Miss.

After hearing that word. Soon Rindu went up to the stage to call Eden down from the bridal stage.

"Eden, come down yuk !. This is not where you sit. If you want to sit in a chair, not here. The invitation chair that has been prepared for the guests is in front of the bridal stage, there which many people sit. It was where the two brides sat. Come on Eden !."

"don't want. I want to sit here !. You said we'd get married. Now just marry her, if you wait again tomorrow-tomorrow or the day after tomorrow will not be married again that."

"You don't do this, dong !. Shame to see a lot of people. Eden come with me down ya !."

"don't want. You told me once, you said you wanted to get married. Now get married, I want to get married now."

This incident really made all the invited guests unable to say anything. Some even snickered him in such a way. Some say, "he said the businessman but he behaved like a child. When asking for marriage in this place, the married person must apply first especially those who want to be married are the children of respected people."

Because Missing does not hear the scorn so it is not too important. Longing to finally be able to take Eden down from the bridal stage.

"Eden, that's dong. We'll get out of here, we'll go to your house first. After that, we go to my house to meet my Daeng, to meet Mamah, to talk about our wishes. If you're ready to get married, we'll get married soon"_

"I'm so happy to hear you talk like that. Actually if it wasn't for the calamity that befell you, we might have already finished getting engaged and would have already decided the day of our marriage. I'd love to marry Eden."

There was only a yes, a yes, a yes, ready, coming out of Eden's mouth.

Eden was only able to remember the events that killed Grandma that he hit with bitter events that happened to him in the past.

"So, we're going to my house, right ? I want to meet the family of the victim who died because of me. Back then, I was just messing around on the brides stage saying I wanted to get married. I don't know who the woman who loved me was, at the party, I cried because I saw her bride was not normal. But the man felt a deep enough happiness. From his face, I looked as if there was no problem marrying that disabled woman. Love is so yes. You Missed it ?."

"You said just playfully saying you want to get married ?. But why do you express your wishes in public if your intentions are just playful ?. Are you still sick or are you healed ?. It's so good to make me hurt, I miss it. You'll say again that you never heard my name."

"I forgot what I said. I just remember that we were at the wedding. If you miss me, all this time, who accompanied me in my house ?. Looks like his face looks like you."

"Eden, it's me, miss !. The woman who has loved you, who has always looked after you, who doesn't want you to be like this. I swear, the longer you stay this way, the longer I'll be hurt by your attitude. At least remember my face if you don't remember my name. I guess, you've improved because of the calamity that happened to you you can remember while I was always with you every day, you forget who I am."

"I told you, help me remember everything including you, your face, your name, if you can write your name on a piece of paper so I can remember it easily. I'll carry that name with me wherever we go. When I forget, I can take it again right ?."

Along the way until they got home. Miss is made dizzy with the behavior of her lover. Want to go but love, want to leave it too baby.

Pity misses having to accept this painful reality. He must be clever to withstand the emotions caused by Eden, quickly healed so that Miss can smile.
