Love at Dusk

Chapter 6: The Wedding

Rere closed his mouth and held back the tears that did not come out much for the man who became a stranger in front of him. "Well, congratulations on your wedding tomorrow. And congratulations on destroying me." Rere grimaced a little. Even when he cried, there was no warm embrace that Reyhan usually gave. He really was the Reyhan he used to be, the Reyhan he first knew. Cold, rigid and keep your distance.

"I'm sorry and I accept that you hate me." That was all Reyhan said, he wanted to pull Rere in his arms, but he realized it was not a good thing. He can not touch other women, Reyhan must begin to get used to staying in the path of God. Without hearing Rere's reply, Reyhan stared at Rere's departure. His heart also hurts but he can't do more, he has limits to everything he does.

...🦋...

Reyhan looked at himself in the mirror, while steadying his heart he was wearing a white peci, this was his special day. And the day that he will perfect religion.

Reyhan assures himself that this is really the path he must take, love will come with time. He was not evil to Rere, he just wanted them to be free from adultery and keep them from being corrupted. Although not doing that far, but Reyhan still felt himself far from religion. He prayed every day as if erased again because he embraced and formed women who are not his right.

"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim," Reyhan murmured, believing he could miss all this with a sincere heart.

...🦋...

Aisyah's heart skipped a beat when she realized she was already approaching Reyhan, her husband. She fell in love on the day of her wedding. "Kiss your husband's hand, baby." That whisper seemed to awaken Aisha. She hesitantly reached for the hand that had been thrust out slowly, and for the first time Aisha's lips kissed the hand of a man other than her father.

Reyhan gasped, he felt nothing, Reyhan felt ordinary. What happened to his heart? In front of an angel from the world who looks very beautiful even though covered in white veil, those beautiful eyes are able to make anyone amazed, but why does Reyhan not feel anything?

Reyhan took a breath, he touched Aisyah's head slowly, closing his lips to the woman's forehead while closing his eyes. Pretty long Reyhan kissed her forehead, hoping there was something swish in her heart so that a speck of love grew. "Sister." The nervous voice resuscitated Reyhan, he kept his face away from Aisyah. Reyhan rubbed Aisyah's head slowly, reciting a prayer after the marriage. All the faces that saw them were smiling happily, Reyhan circulating his gaze, looking for someone Reyhan doubted would come. Realize Reyhan, Rere could not have come to this event, no woman would want to be hurt in such a way!

Now Reyhan put a ring on Aisyah's finger, a finger that is so smooth and white, but still can not melt Reyhan's heart. "Sign her wedding book first baby," Hana said softly after seeing the two exchange rings.
