I'm Not a Wild Grass

Surprise from Erlan (POV Laila)

Thank God my application with Erlan went well. We use the WO (wedding organizer) subscription Mama Ilmaya for the application event later. Tim WO who has also succeeded in his wedding Arline, yesterday.

Arline is currently honeymooning to New Zealand. He said Erlan's twin wanted to see firsthand the beauty of the legendary Waitomo light worm.

When I heard Arline's wish for the first time, I immediately shuddered in horror. How can, seeing worms can provide the attraction to enjoy the honey moon?

That's a basic thing, Arline's forensic doctor is a freak!

But then I was suggling on the website to find out the tourist destinations that Arline wanted to visit. I just type in the keyword search site "new Zealand light worms".

And out came beautiful pictures of people who were riding a boat through the cave at the top filled with blue light.

I guess, it must be the blue light that is meant as his waitomo light worm.

Okay. In his portrait it looks like a tourist destination that does look very interesting. But I was immediately horrified when I imagined when I went there on a boat and passed through the cave.

Then there was a worm that accidentally fell on my head, shoulders or directly into my mouth that gaped in amazement when I saw it.

Or even more sinister, all the worms in the ceiling of the cave simultaneously fell on me and everyone on the boat. So it's like a worm rain, huh. Hii... That must have been really horrified..

(Original. Mel goosebumps just typing this part!🙀🙀)

Arline apologized for not being able to attend my application. Because he has applied for a limited leave of absence for two weeks. Counting from one week before the wedding ceremony took place.

So Arline now still has another week to honeymoon ria. And it makes her unable to attend Erlan's and me's proposal.

I told Arline I wasn't mad because he couldn't attend our show. But I'm obviously charging a compensation tax after his return from the honeymoon ber later. Hihah..

The event took place in a five-star hotel ballroom. This was decided because it was also impossible if it was held in my house which is a large location is quite limited?

In my entourage, I invited the family of Bu Hajah Mariyah (Mother Nunik), Nunik and Aryo, some of Mama's close friends, as well as some of our closest neighbors such as Ceu Edah and her cypress family.

Actually I didn't intend to invite Ceu Edah to my application at the hotel. Because I can already imagine the excitement that the mother of two children will make.

Not to mention the rumors that will be spread after the event later. Iishhkc..

Unfortunately, misfortune befell me when Ceu Edah who was late to the kepo accidentally heard the words of Mama Ilmaya who one afternoon visited my house to show the goods as much as possible.

Ceu Edah who knew that I would be proposed was immediately excited and excited. So Mama Ilmaya who did not know her personality finally moved to offer the invitation to her.

Maybe Mama Ilmaya thought I was quite close to Ceu Edah huh. But anyway. hhh..

And, sure enough. When the application event took place, Ceu Edah really made a proposal event that should be sacred, even becoming ambitious.

How not? As the other guests sat quietly listening to the host's narration of the story of my meeting with Erlan, Ceu Edah was busy stuffing food into the bag of crackles she was carrying from home.

Some guests who saw the action was also quite noisy. Until some of the signals reached my ears.

What infuriated me the most was the statement as follows, 'Poor indeed, Young Master of a distinguished family can be a prospective daughter-in-law whose background is poor. Just look at that brother over there. Busy bagging food into a black bag. The heat!'

Erlan was trying to spread me out when I almost wanted to run over the rotten mouth of the person who was feeding on me earlier.

What is wrong with my poverty? What's important is that I don't beg or beg? After all, I still work and can make money from my own sweat.

Unlike those who could be only able to raise their hands on his two wealthy parents.

'Basic elite trash!' I also swore in my heart.

Thankfully, in the middle of the show, her husband Ceu Edah took her wife home with his two children. Maybe the husband of Ceu Edah was also not strong to resist the shame of his wife's attitude that passed.

As soon as Ceu Edah and his spruce family came home, my application and Erlan's event was lively smoothly and without any more regrettable events.

I was only surprised by the piano performance that Erlan performed at the end of the show.

At first, the lights in the ball room suddenly went out. But it turns out that this blackout was planned by Erlan. Because the next second, I saw a light that highlighted the center of the stage of the event.

It was on that stage that I found Erlan sitting quietly in front of a large black piano.

Along with Erlan's piano clink, there was also the sound of a woman singing the lyrics of a song. It's a Japanese song, I think.

At the top of the stage, there was also a colorful image projection that also featured the title, lyrics and translation of the song that was being sung by the woman.

The song is titled "Itsumo Nando Demo" by Kimura Yumi.

Here are the lyrics, though,

"Yondeiru mune no dokoka oku de (Lirih, a voice calling in the depths of my heart).

Itsumo kokoro odoru yume o mitai (Let me dream dreams that bring my heart to life).

Kanashimi wa kazoe kirenai keredo (When weeping circles of sadness drip, countless).

Sono mukou de kitto anata ni aeru (Kutahu, at the end of all the plagues, I must have found a beautiful beam of light).

Kurikaesu ayamachi no sonotabi hito wa (Every time we fall, then our pair of eyes meet with the blue sky above).

Tada aoi sora no aosa o shiru (We rush to reach the blue; rise as before).

Hateshinaku michi wa tsuzuite mieru keredo (While the path is endless and so silent, it doesn't even draw my eyes).

Kono ryoute wa hikari o idakeru (However, these hands ‘kan able to reach the light).

Sayonara no toki no shizukana mune (When farewell comes, I don't deny my heart seems to stop beating).

Zero ni naru karada ga mimi o sumaseru (My body was headed empty, while my ears began to hear what was real).

Ikiteiru fushigi shindeiku fushigi (Life is a mystery, death is a mystery).

Hana mo kaze mo machi mo minna onaji (Wind, town, flowers - all danced the same beauty).

Lalalalalalais...

Hohohohohoholalalalalu

Yondeiru mune no dokoka oku de (Sayup, the voice is still calling in the distance of the recesses of my heart).

Itsumo nando demo yume o egakou (Stay painting your dreams, never let go of them).

Kanashimi no kazu o iitsukusu yori (Why should you tell me about the wounds of grief in your life?).

Onaji kuchibiru de sotto utaou (Isn't singing a beautiful soft song much better?).

Tojiteiku omoide no sono naka ni itsumo (Whisper the sound, really do not’ ever forgotten).

Wasuretakunai sasayaki o kiku (In every hidden memory, he is always there to guide your steps)

Konagonani kudakareta kagami no eu ni mo (Even when a mirror is broken into pieces, scattered on the floor).

Atarashii keshiki ga utsusareru (New life will be radiated, illuminating around).

Hajimari no asa no shizukana mado (New light burst forth, slipping into the window in the stillness of a dark morning).

Zero ni naru karada mitasarete yuke (Then, let my empty body rise and be reborn).

Umi no kanata ni wa mou sagasanai (Now, there is no need to look for it out there, let alone beyond the ocean).

Kagayaku mono wa itsumo koko ni (For, what I seek, something radiant turns out to dwell within myself).

Watashi no naka ni mitsukerareta kara (Yes, that beam of light I found already, he was always with me, accompanying me every step of the way)"

(This song is the soundtrack of the old-school anime that was quite famous in the 90s. The anime's title is "Spirited Away". The music of this song is one that is quite helpful to Mel healing at every dizzying opportunity. Please look at the cover. Maybe someone needs healing time?🥰.)
