NOT felt today is the last day of UNBK. All the students seemed to sigh with relief. However, sad mimicry also emanated from some students and schoolgirls.
On the one hand they are happy the burden is slightly reduced because it is just waiting for the graduation announcement. But on the other hand, they were also sad to have to part with their comrades in arms.
Nazwa came out of the room where he carried out UNBK with a face that could not be interpreted from the girl.
National Examination complete. Then tomorrow he gets married. And the other friends? Their class will have their last holiday. Count the farewell 'he said'. Except for Nazwa who will even perform the qabul ijab.
"Alvin!" call him.
The owner of the name turned to the source of the voice. "Yes, Wa?"
"Where's Acha?"
Alvin's forehead is clearly visible. "He's one class with you. Why ask me?"
While patting the eel, Nazwa let out his trademark grin. "I forgot. He was allowed to go to the toilet."
Alvin shook his head. Nazwa is a careless forgetful.
"Therefore, don't think of Alif Mulu. Tomorrow is also valid, right," said Alvin.
"I didn't think of him! I know you."
"Not wrong anymore."
Nazwa silently chose not to prolong the conversation. While Alvin, the man looked at Nazwa with an illegible view.
Ting!
Nazwa grabbed the phone that was in his backpack. An instructive message that Nazwa must go home soon.
Shortly after, Acha appeared.
"Cha, Vin, I go home first. I've been picked up," said Nazwa.
Alvin thumbs up. "Sip. Careful."
"Be careful Wa!" Acha talk.
"Ready! Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumussalam," replied Alvin and Acha.
They stared at each other for a moment realizing that they were greeting Nazwa at the same time.
But strangely enough, if it will usually happen a check of cok, but this time Alvin prefers silence. I don't know what the man was thinking. Similarly, Acha, who feels Alvin's behavior changed lately.
Once again, Alvin looked at the small back that was moving away with a difficult look.
And, his every move always did not escape Acha's vision. The girl of course felt there was something strange about Alvin. But, he could not deduce anything at the moment.
Only, one thought flashed through his mind. Acha hoped that it would not happen.
In the moments leading up to H day, Nazwa is now forced by his future father-in-law to be picked up by the driver of Alif's family envoy.
Nazwa refused. But again Mother Ranti insisted that Nazwa would obey her words. If this were the case, how could Nazwa refuse? Perhaps Ranti's mother did not want anything to happen to her beloved daughter-in-law.
Or maybe, if Alif and Nazwa are halal. The man would have been happy to take the girl wherever Nazwa wanted.
Nazwa became even more grateful because everyone around him loved him so much. He immediately got into the car and wanted to hurry up to the house to just rest his body and mind.

WEDDING DAY
The happy day that everyone is waiting for has arrived. Including Alif who is currently trying to neutralize his heartbeat.
The huft!
Many times he took a breath and then exhaled it, took a breath and exhaled it again. So it continues until Mr. Somat's stomach is deflated and his head hood is small.
"Don't worry, Lif, don't strain it! Lebai!" chirp Bobby who just went into Alif's room.
Alif clucking. "No one in the classroom said what greetings?"
Bobby showed his teeth. "Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh the newlyweds," said Bobby finally.
"Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."
"Gue didn't expect this! We haven't interned and you're married, man!" Bobby then sits on the edge of Alif's king-size bed.
Alif sat on the sofa which was located close to the window of his room. "Stupid, death, and destiny no one knows, Bob."
Bobby nodded in understanding. "Yes. I understand. But the thing is, it's between the three of us"
"It's just a single doang." Alif chuckled as he quickly cut off the words of his best friend.
"If swearing is not recorded sin," decak Bobby upset.
"Eat him, hunt for the ribs."
"Yes. I'm slow to be single."
"I'm worried about you, Bob," sneered Alif.
"Sial-"
"The mouth!" hiss Alif sharp.
"Yayaya!" Bobby rolled his eyeballs. "Why do I feel so good here. Lo is now merit. Akbar already has a candidate, stay waiting for the graduation girl. Lah me?"
Alif laughed at Bobby's sour face. At least with the presence of his best friend, his tension is slightly reduced.
"Propsy. God has a good plan for you," said Alif.
"Alif, are you ready?" call Mother Ranti from behind the door of the son's room alone.
Alif stood up swiftly. "Already, Bun."
"Jude, let's go. The others are waiting below."
"Yes, Bun."
"Udah dahmuan dah lo!" said Bobby then about to step down following the other Alif family.
During the trip, Alif was unceasingly grateful. Although he was nervous to death, but he was good at manipulating it with a smile.
On the other hand, Nazwa who had been on the rug in such a way was contemplating in front of the glass of his room.
Aina-naufal's married wife, who was married one week ago, intends to accompany her sister-in-law. But Nazwa refused, arguing that he wanted to be alone for a while until Alif's family came.
The girl was thinking about something else. Yep. Raka's the one who's stuck in Nazwa's little brain right now.
Nazwa is afraid of not being able to be a good wife just because of the shadows of his past.
"Dad?" naufal's bass was heard from the door.
Nazwa looked over and smiled sweetly. Although Naufal knew, the smile seemed forced.
"Is he ready?"
"Udah, brother," replied Nazwa. "Has Alif's family come?"
"Well, five minutes ago" answered Naufal, he sat on the edge of his sister's bed. "What are you daydreaming about?"
"Just lie to Brother."
Then Nazwa laughed. "Does Nazwa look like a lie?"
Naufal sighed for a moment. "Sir, one thing you should know. Brother can not take you off with a man carelessly. Brother would be angry with himself if it happened, "and then he looked at Nazwa seriously. "Kak you know. Alif is a good man."
"Where do you know that Alif is good?"
"Did Brother not tell you that Brother Alif sahabatan has been for a long time?"
Nazwa squinted his eyes then shook his head.
"Ah, jeez. Next time I'll tell you a story" he said. "Now, you have to smile sweetly. You should be happy. I'm sure it's the best decision you've ever made."
This is not a random Naufal. Nor did Naufal like to tease and insult his sister. This time there was only Naufal who really played a good role as big brother.
"Nazwa knows, Brother," Nazwa paused for a moment. "But what if Nazwa could not be a good wife and mother for the husband and children of Nazwa? Nazwa doesn't have enough provisions to make a new life."
"That's not a problem. Alif can lead you to be the best wife after ummi and Aina in this world." Naufal smiled convincingly.
Want to not. That smile also caught on to his sister.
"Are you ready now?"
Nazwa nodded without protest.
"So, Big Brother can come down now, right?"
"Let's down, brother. Don't go up again." Nazwa.
Naufal. "You don't want to be messing around with your brother's messy face."
"I cut my throat!"
Naufal. "Judek. Later Brother call ummi same Acha for your nemenin."
"Tess ... Tess .. one, two, three."
MC's voice has begun to sound, reading one by one the order of events during the day.
"God willing!! Nazwa...my friend!! It's so pretty!" acha exclaimed as she entered Nazwa's room.
"Oh, duh! Cha, I can't breathe!"
Acha chuckled and let go of her embrace.
"Ah, her seneng who will soon be Alif's mistress," seduks Acha, making Nazwa cheeks meet.
"Pbuhh!" lerai ummi Audy's.
Acha giggles. "Hehe. Sorry Ummi."
"Nroughent ...,"
"'allamal-qur'aan."
"nor-insaan ...."
The recitation of the holy verse of the Qur'an makes everything silent.
"'alama-alamiyaan ...."
Everyone listened carefully to Alif's melodious voice. So too with Nazwa. The girl actually felt something strange stirring violently in her chest.
"fa bi'ayyi aalaaa'i robbikumaa tukadzibaan,"
It was Nazwa's favorite verse. And, Alif read it to her.
Now Nazwa shed his tears. Hope granted. Ar-rahmaan has become a dowry in her marriage.
"tabaarokasmu robbika zil-jalaali wal-ikrom."
Alif ended it well. Although it is undeniable that he was very nervous.
Acha is hysterically squealing. "Wawa ... What am I baper for!"
Nazwa immediately wiped away the trace of her tears then laughed softly.
"I received the marriage and marriage of Nazwa Zivara Nafitri bint Ahmad Rashid with a set of prayer tools and 50 grams of gold and 15 million in cash, paid in cash!"
And the sentence that came from the sound was successful in making Nazwa's heart beat doubled.
"How's witness? Right?"
Deg. Deg. Deg.
"Well!!"
"Alhamdulillah ..." said the ummi, followed by Acha and others.
"Congratulations, dear. Today Ummi is happy and sad. Happy because finally the children of Ummi married, and sad because soon Ummi will be lonely because you have to follow your husband, son," said the ummi while shedding tears.
"Ummi ..," Nazwa hugged his ummu while crying.
Acha who saw the happy sobs in front of him also cried.
"Already, already. Ummi won't be lonely because there's Aina right now." Aina's voice sounded from behind the door.
Nazwa broke his embrace and then switched to hugging his sister-in-law. "Mr Aina ...."
Aina smiled, warmly returning the embrace of the sister-in-law. "Congratulations, Deck. Finally ...."
"Thank you Ma'am" replied Nazwa.
Aina patted slowly on Nazwa's shoulder. "You must be happy" he said still with a smile and was nod by Nazwa.
"Wa, uh,"
Nazwa. He forgot the one person he had not given a hug to in this room.
"Acha!!" Nazwa hugged his best friend.
"Yes, Wa. Congratulations, yes ... hiks!" isak Acha.
"Thank you, Cha. Don't ever get tired of being my best friend."
Acha shook her head hard. "No, Wa. You're the best I've known."
"Blessed is my friend!!" Acha wiped away the trace of her tears and smiled broadly to infect her best friend.
"The bride is welcome to go down to meet the groom."
"Let's go down" said Ummi Audy.
The four of them came down with Nazwa flanked by the ummi and his best friend. Followed by the smiling brother-in-law behind him.
All pairs of eyes in the room simultaneously turned their heads and noticed a single focal point. Nazwa. Including Alif who is now staring at the 'wife' who is walking towards him.
As if there is nothing more interesting in his view than Nazwa who now looks very beautiful with a white kebaya syar'i suit.
Nazwa sat next to Alif who was still smiling widely.
After the process of changing the ring, Nazwa kissed her husband's hand, followed by Alif who kissed the lover's forehead halal.
"I'm so happy to have you, Wa. Thank you for being willing to accept and be my wife" whispered Alif with a gentle smile. "Like Mad 'Aridlisukun, may I be the last for you."
Seriate.
