HAVING YOU IS MY DESTINY

An Unwanted Marriage

Christensen Haireo Almond aka Reo standing on the balcony of the hotel room. He looked at the hotel page that would be the venue for his wedding. Everything is ready there.

There was a smile on the handsome man's face when he imagined that in 1 hour's time Edewina Caresia Moreno would be his wife. The girl who had captivated her heart 10 years ago.

The door to his room was knocked. Reo hurried to open it. It turns out that the ones who entered were daddy and his mommy.

"Are you ready, baby?" ask Riani. Mommy who still looks beautiful at the age of her 50s.

"Mommy already. Oh, dad, you look so handsome."

Jack Almond smiled. "You know that your daddy's always good-looking, son."

Riani laughed when she heard her husband's words. But that's how Jack is. He always looks good with his athletic body that never changes.

"Where are my two brothers?" ask Reo.

"They'll be here soon. Know the woman that dance takes hours ", said Jack while glancing at Riani made his wife nod in agreement.

"Reo, there's something you want daddy to ask." Jack told his son to stay away. The two headed to the balcony while Riani called her two daughters.

"What's up, dad?"

"You're getting married, right? Have you escaped the mafia network? Daddy doesn't want you to endanger your family later."

"Just calm down, dad. Everything is safe under control. Because my future father-in-law is also an ex-mafia man."

"Edmond Moreno?"

"Yes. He had stopped long ago. But there are certain moments he is present for a mission. And I'm sure both his wife and his children, no one knows."

"Great also my candidate, that's."

"I made them love me. But I don't know if their daughter will love me."

"You haven't won her heart yet?"

Reo smiled wryly. "Even until last night he still sent me wa, asking me to stop this marriage."

"So your love is clapping one hand? Mommy would be sad if she knew the truth, son."

"I love her, dad. Maybe the way I got it was a little cunning and selfish. I forced myself to get it."

Jack patted his son's shoulder. "Prepare yourself. Soon the blessing of her marriage will begin."

"Ok, dad." Reo smiled. He looked at Riani who was also sitting on the bed while looking at him. It was that woman who made Reo always feel strong. Although this time Reo had to lie to him because Reo wanted to get the girl he had been waiting for 10 years.

In one of the rooms in the hotel as well, there was a beautiful girl just finished dressing. She was wearing a white dress. Her appearance was like a princess with a diamond-encrusted crown on her head.

A gold necklace with a sunflower was placed beautifully on her neck.

White shoes that now adorn his feet were also in a special message from a famous shoe brand in England.

But apparently, all the luxury and beauty did not make the girl smile. His face looks sad. There are no eyes of happiness like a happy bride.

Edewina Caresia Moreno is the girl's name. He had to accept this unwanted marriage because of his own stupidity.

I want her to leave and leave this marriage. Should he embarrass his family? After all, Edewina loved both her parents very much.

Slowly the girl took her phone. Open a photo gallery. He still keeps his beautiful photos with Kennard Lim. Korean man who became his first love. The man who was supposed to be accompanying him at this time but who finally had to let go. Their love is forbidden.

Edewina wiped her phone screen. He closed his eyes, feeling the pain in his heart. Moreover, a beautiful memory with Ken always haunts him every night.

Why do we have to meet, Ken? Why should we fall in love if our relationship is forbidden? Isn't destiny really cruel to meet us?

Edewina tried to hold back her tears. He must not look sad so that his sick opinion will not feel sad.

The door to his room is open. Her mother's beautiful face appeared. Behind her was her papa and also the opa who was pushed in a wheelchair.

A sweet smile Edewina gave. He must appear perfect as a happy bride for the sake of the opa. If papa and his mother, they already know that Edewina's heart is not for the groom. But because of the fateful event, Edewina had to marry a man she hated so much. Christensen Haireo Almond Hotel. Bule blesteran Indonesian British who somehow, found by their family there is one room with her in a state of no clothes at all. And this marriage was prepared in just 3 weeks.

"Let's go to church!. The groom's entourage was waiting there." said Edriges, Edewina's opa neatly dressed in her black suit.

"All right."

Mahira took the hand flowers that had been arranged very beautifully. He gave it to his daughter. "Let's go. Make your heart happy. It's God's will that you marry Reo today."

Edewina tried to hold back her tears. He stood up and held the flower and took his father's hand and they left the hotel room.

************

The ayu fence and the nice fence are already standing to the right and left of the altar. Among them was Indira Kanna. The girl from samarinda, whose omanya is of English origin as well. He is Reo's little friend.

No one knows how broken Indira is right now. Reo is his first love. Indira has loved Reo since she was a child. Unfortunately, Indira's feelings clapped one hand. Reo had chosen Edewina to be his last port. Although Indira also knew, how did Reo get Edewina. Full of secrets. Only Mark and Indira knew. Mark is Reo's bodyguard and confidant.

Music also sounds. The bride has arrived. Edewina entered while being held by her papa.

The girl smiled. Even though his heart was broken. This is not the marriage she wanted.

"I give you the treasure I love most, Christensen Haireo Almond. I really hope that you'll never hurt her let alone torture her. Because when you hurt him it means you hurt me too" Edmond said slowly but with great emphasis.

"alright. I promise to look after Edewina with all my soul and body and I will never wish for her." Reo said confidently while Edewina tried not to slap the face of the man in front of her. All of Edewina's friends said Reo was very handsome. But to Edewina, this man was like an angel of the heart of the devil. Unfortunately Reo has managed to convince his entire family that he is the best man for Edewina. Moreover, the Reo family is a family that is quite famous in England. And mama Reo, is also Indonesian, as is mama Edewina. Hence the two women instantly matched without knowing there was a great hatred in Edewina's heart towards Reo.

Edmond gave up Edewina's right hand to be held by Reo. Reo's hand was like a sharp knife that pierced the girl's heart.

"Christensen Haireo Almond, do you confess here, before God and his congregation that you accept Edewina Caresia Moreno as your rightful wife. That you will still love him in joy and sorrow, healthy and sick, abundant and lacking. Will you remain faithful, honor her and make her your only wife until you separate you?" ask the priest

"Yes. I promise with all my heart." replied Reo with a smile full of happiness.

"Edewina Carenia Moreno, do you confess before God and his congregation that you accept Christensen Haireo Almond as your lawful husband. That you will still love him in joy and sorrow, healthy and sick, abundant and lacking. Will you remain faithful, honor him and make him your only husband until you separate you?"

Edewina closed her eyes. Kennard Lim's face is back. The girl became worried. It's not too late to cancel, Vienna. You don't love this guy. You hate her. Inner Edewina.

Reo who was still holding Edewina's hands, squeezed the girl's hands slowly. Edewina refocused her eyes.

"Yes. I promised with all my heart." The girl finally spoke.

Mahira who was sitting opposite her husband also breathed a sigh of relief. Edmond kissed Mahira's hand gently. "Everything will be fine, dear." whispered Edmond.

The two brides also put a ring on each other's ring fingers.

After receiving the blessing, the two were declared officially husband and wife.

After that, the groom is allowed to kiss the bride. Edewina looks tense. He closed his eyes. Both of his hands were clenched. He didn't want Reo to kiss his lips. The girl breathed a sigh of relief when she felt a soft kiss on her forehead.

Everyone immediately clapped. The event was continued in the church hall for the wedding recording from the civil registry office.

The marriage ceremony and civil registration was completed.

the photo show began.

Edewina's friends immediately congratulated him. Everyone is crazy about Reo's good looks.

When they finished the photo together, Edewina accidentally saw Kennard's shadow among all those present in the churchyard.

"That's Kennard." said Edewina.

"Wina, where are you going?" ask Carla, her best friend.

"That's Kennard, La. He's coming."

"Lu is crazy. Why does Ken have to be here? If so, what do you want to do with chasing him? You're now somebody's wife."

Edewina's steps stopped. He clearly saw Kennard coming. He wore a Viennese blue shirt on Ken's 23rd birthday a few months ago.

"Wina, let's go back to the hotel!" call Mahira makes Edewina forced to turn her body and follow her mother.
