Alula turned around slowly. Alula's body was fixated on seeing the person in front of her.
"Re-rendra?" Alula muttered slowly.
"Alula I..."
"Okay ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome our bride tonight." The voice of an echoing host cut off Rendra's speech.
Alula took a chance. He quickly grabbed the gift he brought, and walked quickly to the crowd who began to queue to congratulate the couple.
"I'll get you Alula. You're so charming and well-groomed, different from the old Alula." Murmured Rendra with his grin.
Because it's been separated from Edo's parents. His gaze went back to the people present. He clenched his teeth when he did not find Alula.
Gara walked towards Edo and Irene, as well as Asya who stood between them.
"Congratulations." Said Gara, shaking Edo's hand.
"Ck. Your words sound insincere. Are you jealous of me getting married first?"
"Sad. Why am I jealous of you? If I wanted to, I was married before you met Irene."
"You've always been proud to admit it. You know, Alula's a woman who doesn't change her heart. Maybe he still holds a taste for his lover first."
"Love?" Tanya Gara, who does not know about Alula's ex-lover.
"Yes. What do you think is the reason Alula was at the club that night? All because he broke up with his girlfriend."
Goddamnit! Why Kenan missed this important information.
"May your marriage last." Said Gara and was about to leave, but in Edo's custody.
"What?" Ask Gara by holding back the extreme annoyance.
Edo smiled slightly, then brought his face closer to Gara's ears. "By the way, I saw Alula earlier. She is very beautiful and... Captivating." Edo's whisper that immediately got the swearing of Gara.
"Fucking do!" It made Edo chuckle.
Irene who saw him only frowned. Don't know what Edo told Gara.
"Congratulations Irene."
"Thank you, Mr. Gara." Irene replied with a smile.
"Congratulations Asya."
"Thank you Uncle Gara." Say Asya with a sweet smile that adorns her face. Gara's annoyed face earlier had already turned slightly softened when facing Asya.
"What did you say to Mr. Gara?" Irene whispered while continuing to crucify the people.
"I didn't say anything, baby. He's the one who gets angry fast."
"I also know Mr. Gara. He wouldn't look pissed if nobody fished him."
"I'm just saying that Alula is beautiful. He's just too much."
"Did you like Alula?"
"Yes, like that."
"Had to be angry. She doesn't like it when someone praises her. Looks like the possessive male master."
"I'm possessive too, baby." Said Edo pulling Irene's waist closer to him. The woman's face was reddened by the sight of so many people.
"What are you doing?"
"Stop talking about other men. Or I'll kiss you in front of everyone." Edo's whisper, gives Irene goosebumps.
Gio, Ana, Alula, Tari and Sadam who were just standing up booed a smile looking at the two. The newlywed couple seemed to not care about those who stood up.
"Ekhm." Deheman Gio made both of them aware.
"Eh you guys." Edo said, not looking awkward or embarrassed.
"Congratulations on her wedding. I hope you and Irene get one more." Gio said making Edo smile brightly. While Irene was back.
"thank you. I'll try my best. Even more is better."
"Haha... I know you very well Edo. The man me... A-aw what is that?"
"Splash! People are on ngantri." Said Ana was not able to stand the behavior of Gio.
"Yes-yes." The answer. Gio came forward shaking Irene's hand. But his eyes glanced at Edo. Now his hand moved to Asya.
"Good girl sweet."
"Thank you uncle." Asya.
"I'm sorry, Gio likes to joke around." Said Ana after serving Irene.
"Congratulations, Edo."
"Thank you and I'm sorry."
"Why sorry? Come on, I gave it all up."
"Yes. But, I still feel bad for you."
"You're this. It's already! May your marriage be happy and always be together until the end ."
"Amiinu. Hope you catch up soon." Alula simply replied with a smile. He turned to Irene. His face was radiantly staring at the new friend he knew.
"Congratulations." Alula. Her eyes glazed over looking at Irene.
"Yes. Why are your eyes glazed over?" Irene asked but unconsciously, if she had also glazed over as well.
"I'm happy to see you now. You've crossed many obstacles in life. I'm happy to see you happy." Alula said sincerely. He knows a lot about Irene's life. Irene, too, already knows a lot about Alula.
"You too."
The two embrace each other. I don't know, Alula feels like she's the same fate as Irene. But the difference is, Irene stays with her father and fights for his recovery. But we have to face the harsh reality. While he was expelled from the father and did not have the opportunity to take care of the father. But, now that he was grateful, his relationship with his father had improved.
Alula took off her embrace, then turned to Asya. "Congratulations Asya."
"Thank you aunt. Darren Darrel isn't coming?"
"Don't you know Darren? If Darrel says he wants to come along if Darren comes along." Alula. It is impossible to say if the twins lived with Gara.
"Oh..."
"Yes already. Auntie's been there?"
"okay."
Alula moved on, allowing Tari and Sadam as well as the others to take a turn. Edo and Irene's wedding was so good. Many people present make the atmosphere more crowded. Even the bride was exhausted and had time to rest.
"Irene." Call Edo when they're serving those who congratulate them.
"Yes. Why?"
"I'm..."
"Where's Asya?" Cut off Irene when she regained consciousness, Asya disappeared.
"She was with Mom and Dad."
"oh, thank goodness."
"Irene." Call Edo again. But this time, it sounded so serious.
"Yes. What's up?"
"I'd like to say if..."
"If what?" Irene frowned. He was very curious about what Edo would say.
"If..." Edo drew his face closer to Irene. It made the woman turn her face even more. "If... I love you."
Irene smiled and pushed Gio's face away. "I already know." His word.
"Haha... Why are you blushing?" Goda Edo's.
"Isa. You're this." Irene covered her face with both hands.
"I want to be honest with you. I caused Alula to conceive Gara's child."
Irene looked seriously at him. His face looked cold, as if he did not like Edo's words.
"I already know." Irene's words and smile made Edo feel astonished.
"You already know. Aren't you angry?"
"I'm not angry. Alula told me everything. I'm also grateful to know Mr. Gara likes Alula. I'm sure Alula will be happy."
"Are you really not angry?" Edo asked again. Trying to convince himself if he doesn't hear wrong.
"Yes. At first I was a little upset. But when Alula said she forgave you, I felt it was inappropriate to scold you. If the victim can forgive, why am I the only listener of the story not to forgive. Anyway, I love you sincerely. And I'm sure you won't repeat the same."
Edo held Irene's hand. "Thank you." Irene nodded. "But..."
Suddenly Edo kissed Irene right on his lips. "I love you too much." Further.
Some of the people who saw Edo's action smiled. Moreover, Gio, the man even shouted out loud.
"Sabar Edo, there is still a lot of time. Don't make others envious." Gio's shout made people chuckle. And Ana, she just shook her head and covered her face, embarrassed by Gio's strange behavior.
