Love In Silence

Determining the Wedding Date

　

When Aksa again engrossed in chatting with Balqis, Dedi and Aksa's parents came to them.

"How son, are you ready to get married soon?" ask Ezra.

Aksa looked towards Balqis and after that, Aksapun answered his papa's question.

"Yes pa." Replied Aksa while Balqispun can only resign with Aksa's answer even though he knew that Aksa did this only for the sake of obeying the wishes of his father while his heart for the woman who is still his girlfriend. There was sadness in Balqis' heart, because again she had to marry a man who did not love her. He used to love Adzriel but Adzriel loved Zahra and now he will marry Aksa but Aksa loves another woman instead. It felt like Balqis was crying but she was trying to toughen up for her papa who is now beside her.

"Thank God you're happy to hear that." Ezra smiled.

"Son, what about you?" ask Ayu to Balqis.

"If Mas Aksa agrees then I also agree." Answer Balqis.

"Thank God, my mother was glad to hear it." Said Ayu smiling.

"Pope after you get married, you should love each other. Don't hurt each other." Dedi.

"Yes pa." Said Aksa with his heavy voice.

"When are you ready for your wedding?" ask Ezra.

"I'm what you said." Answer Aksa.

"How about you, son?" asked Ayu who felt this prospective daughter-in-law was holding back the sadness.

"I'm what Mas Aksa said ma." Answer Balqis.

"Alright then your marriage will be live in 2 weeks. And papa will make the most luxurious marriage in history." Ezra.

"Alright because the wedding date has been set. Now it's time to eat. After that we can meet again to discuss more details about how the decoration will be and so forth." Ezra. While Ayu continued to look at her prospective daughter-in-law because she felt there was something she wanted to say by her prospective daughter-in-law but she could not and could only hold it alone. Ayu also can not do anything other than just pray and may God give happiness for his future daughter-in-law and also for his son.

Ezra immediately called the waiter to prepare all the food he had ordered. And soon the waiter came with a variety of foods that make anyone so addicted and want to devour it immediately.

After the meal, Balqis and Dedi returned home because the clock had shown at 5 pm.

Along the road Balqis always silent to make Dedi was confused.

"Why are you, honey, is there anything that bothers you?" ask Dedi gently.

"No pa, I just didn't expect to get married again soon. I'm also afraid that my marriage won't last long." Balqis replied, he could not answer honestly and said that Aksa loved another woman and whether he could make Aksa fall in love with her and forget her boyfriend. Balqis fears that Aksa will leave her for the one she loves. Balqis did not want to be a widow for the second time.

"You don't think of anything like that, papa believes Aksa is a good man and he can't hurt you much less leave you." Answer Dedi.

"Hopefully pa." Balqis said in tears.

"Did you know something related to Aksa until you felt pressured like this?" asked Dedi to see her beloved daughter shed tears.

"There's no pa." Answer Balqis.

"If you know something, be honest, son. Everything is still unprepared and only planned. Because if your marriage reaches the media or Papa Ezka to announce your marriage then papa can't do anything else so it's still not too late, for that be honest with papa and try to be open with papa. Papa doesn't want this marriage to make you suffer even more. Although I'm sure Aksa is a good person and I'm sure he won't hurt you but it all comes back to you. Whether you're comfortable with it or not." Dedi.

"I'm not papa pa and I'm going to accept this match." Balqis said again he did not want to see his father disappointed. He knew very well that now his father loved Aksa very much and hoped that Aksa would soon become his son-in-law and Balqis could not if it had to destroy the happiness of his father.

"Yes, but if you have a problem. Talk to me, papa will always be there for you." Dedi.

"Thank you pa." Balqis smiled, she is very happy to have such an understanding father
