Weddings

"Andrian?"


Andrian turned to find a girl in an ivory white dress with wavy hair who smiled at him wide.


Andrian thought for a moment, he felt familiar with this woman. But sapa? Then his memory revolves around the memories of High School and the last time he met with Mr. Surya. Is beautiful.


Andrian saw Indah traveling with hils as high as a ballpoint pen with a pointed end. Andrian thought, if the tip of the shoe stepped on his foot, then the comfortable life of his feet are now backward, do not want to be close to the foot of the weapon.


Beautifully laughing, he laughed at Andrian's dreamy face looking back at his feet. It was so lovely to be entertained by that. "What's wrong? Why are you backing out?" Beautiful Tanya.


Andrian turned his gaze to the beautiful face Beautiful. The face carefully made a radiance of beauty mount through the air.


Andrian was not fascinated of course. He just admitted that he was beautiful. If anyone says Beautiful ugly, that person must be myopic.


Andrian stopped back and put his hand into the pocket of the warmest suit. "No" Andrian said.


Lovely just nodded without asking anything else. Andrian did not invite him to chat even though he had generously come to him. So, he also hesitated to start a conversation. Better to stay quiet like this.


It would be better if they sat down, but they just stood there doing nothing. They stared at the bride-to-be without blinking like a silly person.


Until Davian finally finds Andrian and calls him to join Davian's friend, Andrian only knows, but is not familiar. He looked at Davian and his friend who talked without holding a conversation with him.


"I'm really nervous. But if I think of this as my marriage to Christin, it makes my soul explode and excited again." Said Davian who was interspersed with laughter from his friends. Andrian smiled a little at his friend who looked very happy.


"You're not excited for anything, I guarantee you're just thinking about the sweetness of peaches." Jokes on someone beside Andrian. Davian smiled curiously. He looked at one person at a time. "I think I'm free now, all you have to think about is yourself.. How do you eat if your wife doesn't have one?" Ejek Davian with a scratch on his nose.


Everyone laughed at Davian. Then another replied, "Hey, do you think you can? Nowadays just looking for a partner is easy. What more if you're a rich, established, and handsome man." He said by raising his eyebrows.


Then they all looked at Andrian who was beside Davian. Andrian raised his eyebrows at the question mark.


"I think I understand why your friend Andrian is not married yet.." Muttering one person consecutively said two sentences in the last few words.


Andrian folded his forehead. "Ah, I'm not like that.." Andrian said awkwardly. He was not very familiar with them, so if they were a lot of attention channeled their eyes only centered on one object that is Andrian, making Andrian uncomfortable with their gaze.


Another said, "Well, you're well-established, rich, handsome. It's very unnatural that you've never held a girl. But it seems like you never want to be involved in a relationship, so you never publish your 'date' friends'. I right?" Ask the guy.


Andrian did not answer, he just shook his head and smiled a little. They continued the conversation until finally Andrian turned around and found Indah who was with his father.


Andrian only realized, when Davian called his name, he left Indah alone without inviting or saying goodbye. He thought that what he was doing was disrespectful, but he did not regret it one bit. Excuse me.


Andrian returned to the hall with a lazy step. After seeing this wedding, he would immediately gasp to go to Tian's house.


The event went well and well. Guests have started to go home, there are only a few people still here, including Andrian. He stepped out to congratulate the two couples and left.


Andrian thought about telling Tian that he was done, but the thought went straight to the edge because he wanted to surprise them.


Andrian runs his car to Tian's house. It's still the same day when Bila slapped him, and it's still the same day that Andrian saw Bila crying on the bridge that Andrian was passing by.


Andrian wasn't so sure it was when.. Where could that woman be there? What's it doing?


Andrian who turns his car down just to check on someone who's behind him and starts to believe that it's when. The clothes he was wearing were still the same when he came to Andrian's apartment.


"What's? Ask Andrian.


There, Tian snorted impatiently, "When are you done?" Ask. Andrian rolled his eyes lazily. The surprise he had thought of disappeared. He clearly said, "I'm on my way," Andrian decided to call unilaterally.


Andrian again saw the woman in the department. His hair was a bit messy and his shoulders were up and down. Maybe he was crying.


Because Andrian was in a hurry, he thought as if to say not just one woman who had such clothes. It was actually just her self-denial, because she did not want to meet him now. So in his mind, he made his own alibi to make his heart agree to leave.


Andrian finally left. Holding the steering wheel with tightly clutching hands.

"Rain will not be able to subside, you just stay here," said Karin who made Alex turn his surprised face towards Karin.


"W-what?" Ask Alex gawking. There may be shameless women like this. She's a girl, asking Alex to stay at her place? How is that not misinterpreted?


"You don't make it up, I'm coming home now" Alex said in a misguided manner. Huft, this teenager is very talented to make other people's hearts pound. Alex still wears the flat face of his flagship, but anyone also knows that now Akex is very gerogi until he hastily moved out of the place.


"Why hunt so much? Can't you see that it's still raining?" Ask Karin who Alex doesn't care about. He was busy preparing his body to leave. Until Karin finally pulled her hand to a stop. Alex turned around and looked at Karin with a look of "What?"


Karin cleared her throat to eliminate the awkwardness. Then he took a red rose in his vase. Give Alex a lovely smile.


Alex won't ask again why or why.. He had already memorized the habits of both of them, giving and receiving. Unfortunately in this relationship, Alex plays the role of the receiver. Flowers I mean.. Ha.. Ha..


True said Karin, if the streets around his apartment is very dark and slippery. Fortunately, he got out easily. Already far away from Karin's place, the sight Alex saw was bright. No rain or anything. Local rain?


Alex drives his car at a very high speed. But while passing a bridge, Alex stopped because he saw the figure of Bila standing. Alex stopped the car and called him out.


"When?" Ask Alex.


A figure with eye bags, quivering lips and messy hair immediately waded through his dark eyes. Alex was a little surprised by that.


When he saw his brother standing in front of him could not hold his cry deeper. From the sobbing, he now voiced his cry even louder. He ran and hugged Alex.


"Sister..."
