Love is Named Us

Love is Named Us
The Marriage of Friends



Hanum sat right in front of me with a smile that never disappeared. It's only natural that her happy day will soon be here. A happy aura was so emanated from the look on his face. I just realized that it was the happiness felt by the bride and groom.


Hearing that she was getting married soon made me feel happy.


How not, we have not met for a long time, once met directly get this good news. What else can make me happy besides seeing friends happy.


When I met Reza, her future husband, I felt he was a good person and suitable for Hanum. Whoever the choice is that can definitely make her happy, I will definitely support her.


"Why bother coming here?'' my many. " The bride and groom should not go out of the house, why even the crawl.''


Isn't that what people say. If the bride-to-be is sweet-blooded. I don't know if it's true or not, but that's what parents used to say. And there is nothing wrong with being followed for your own good.


" I can't help myself not meeting you. Anyway I want to hand this over directly to you, '' she handed me a plastic bag.


" This is what?''


I was confused by this large package.


'' Open it.''


He gave me the code to open it immediately.


I quickly picked up the thing inside. A large box containing a beautiful dress.


I looked at Hanum. I wish he would explain why he gave it to me.


" It's the clothes you'll wear later.''


" This is for me?''


Hanum nodded.


" But, Hanum, there's no need to get this way, right. Don't bother yourself. I'm not feeling well.''


" No trouble, I'm happy and it has to be like this. I ordered this dress for you. You think I'm gonna miss this great opportunity on my special day. I've thought of everything.''


Thinking everything.


That's how Hanum always cared about me. I didn't think I'd get a dress this good. And of course the price is also expensive.


'' Don't try to reject it, I don't accept rejection anyway.''


Hanum smiled a smile.


I let out a breath. There's nothing I can do but accept this gift. It is not good to reject the good of others.


" Well, I won't argue with you anymore. I will wear it and I will definitely look beautiful with this outfit you gave me.''


" Of course.''


We laughed too.


Hanum hurriedly was about to leave after seeing the clock on his arm. He said goodbye to me because he still has something to do today.


He waved his hand as he entered the car. It was seen that Mr. Umar, the Hanum family driver whom I knew very well, was smiling at me.


Hanum was indeed picked up by Mr. Umar as a condition of his mother to be able to get out of the house. Which mother is not worried about her daughter who is getting married and instead wanders outside the house.


I can understand how Aunt Dina, Hanum's mother feels.


After the car carrying Hanum drove, I returned with work that was delayed.


I put the plastic bag containing the clothes into my locker. As I closed the locker door, I half screamed because of Widya who suddenly appeared near me.


He laughed at my reaction.


" You are this!''


I was a little upset about his behavior. Widya even laughed more because of her pleasure.


" Once you've been serious, then the idea arises to justify you.It turns out not in vain either.''


" Basic....''


Widya smiled.


" Oh yeah, that pretty lady was your friend, huh?''


" Hmm.yeah, "my nod, "he's my friend who's getting married, so he came to give me clothes to wear on his wedding day.''


" Oh, I see.''


" Yes, that's how it is, '' I said. " Oh yeah Wid, can I ask you a favor?''


" Of course, what is it?''


" Exchange holidays?''


I nodded slowly. I had to ask her for help because at Hanum's wedding, not on my day off but on her day off.


" Of course I can. There's no need to hesitate, we'll be friends.''


"Thank God I'm relieved. Thank you Wid. I'll ask Mr. Martin's permission about this later.''


" Umm.ok.''


" Thank you again Wid.''


I hugged him tightly.


...****...


The lunch hour I missed is now something I can enjoy. Lately I have not had much appetite to spend a lot of time eating my lunch.


I slowly chewed the food I put in my mouth. A serving of white rice, eggs and vegetables as my lunch menu today. Actually, I can eat the food that has been prepared here, but sometimes I get bored and so I bring my own provisions even if only a simple menu.


" Just had lunch?''


Suddenly the sound surprised me. I looked back and saw Tia standing behind me with a serious look.


" I-iya,'' reply. I choked a little because of his sudden arrival.


Seeing me coughing, Tia gave me a bottle of mineral water.


" Drink, '' she said. '' Sorry to startle you.''


I was a little surprised by his attitude towards me. I was not too close to Tia, even I often heard negative stories about her from Widya.


Yeah, Widya always told me about Tia.


" No need to worry, this is not poison.''


I looked at him in confusion.


Does the look on my face describe how I feel until she says that to me?


I averted my eyes.


" Thank you for being nice to me.''


'' Have I ever been mean to you?''


"Huh???''


What is this why? Why does my speech feel twisted.


" I think you've heard bad things about me.''


" Why are you saying that?''


'' But I'm right, right?''


I just fell silent.


He sighed.


I looked at him with a serious look.


" You've heard words like this. The real enemy could be someone who is near you.''


I shook my head.


'' You won't realize it now, but when that day comes, it must be very painful.''


" I'm not very good at small talk, so I'm just warning you. What you see and hear is not necessarily what it is. So think clearly."


I was surprised by his words just now. A very ambiguous word in my opinion.


After saying what he wanted, he immediately left me confused.


I don't know what his purpose and purpose is. But, this was also the first time he had spoken so seriously with me.


" Am I misjudging someone?''


Suddenly the words came out of my lips. But, I still can't deduce what's going on right now.


Perhaps his words could be interpreted as a warning to me. Yeah, but, I don't know how to react .
