LOVE Plus Minus

Wedding (Morning of the Day)

I chose silence and locked my lips tightly, not wanting to argue with anyone again. I've had enough of a fight with that shitty Dave.

"Cin... Cin..." Mama's faint, soft voice came into my demo.

"hmmmmmh.." I coiled slowly under the blanket.

"Cintya, wake up son." once again the voice greeted my eardrum.

"Ma, in a moment." I replied lazily without opening my eyes.

"At the same time my alarm hasn't gone off, which means it's too early." I'm monologuing in my heart.

"Cintya, wake up? or did you flush with water?"

"Young...!!! Don't-don't." I said directly sitting on the bed while shaking.

"Mama, what the hell, it's still mama's part." I protested while yawning widely.

"Mandi.. shower.." said Mama regardless of my protest.

"Ma? why take a shower so early?" I couldn't believe it while staring at the clock hanging on the wall of my room. It's 06.00 in the morning.

"What day have you forgotten?"

"It's Wednesday ma, Cintya there are no classes today" I replied lazily.

"It's your wedding day. Come get ready, baby." said mama softly.

"Ah yes.." I replied limply. That's how I intend this marriage, until I forget that this day is coming.

"You want mama to take a shower? Bengong only ih." mama's nagging resuscitated me.

"Cintya can be alone ma." I said while ngibrit to the bathroom.

Dave POV

I've been sitting in bed since I woke up a few minutes ago. I squeezed my hair out of frustration. Today came without me avoiding it. Imagining every hri will face the nagging and stubborn attitude of Cintya, really gives me a headache.

"Dave... are you awake?" That's Mami's voice (note: you have to remember that Noni's parents thought Dave was like their own son at first Noni's father felt awkward being called papa, but finally the old man agreed too).

"Yes Mi." replied Dave as he turned to the door of the room and found the woman already moving closer towards me.

"Thank you Dave." said Mami while sitting on the edge of the bed.

"What's Mi made?"

"Thank you for sacrificing so far for Noni. You know why you married Cintya. It's all because of Noni, isn't it Dave?" mami said with a trembling voice.

"How does Mom know all this?" my question is in my heart.

The flashback

"Sister, I want to continue the treatment but there are conditions." he said while sobbing at the time.

"What?" I answered expectantly. Yes, hopefully, because finally my dear sister wants to fight to survive.

"Marry my friend."

"Whose friend are you?" my question was flat, considering he only had one friend, the cute girl Cintya.

"Cinty."

"okay."

Flashback off

Those memories again disturbed my mind. When I heard the terms Noni gave me, my heart also shook violently. I was intending to refuse those terms, but anyway I was afraid of losing my family again.

The pain of my birth parents' departure is still very painful. Therefore, I was very unable to give up on Noni's disease. Whatever, I'll do it to protect those I love to stay with me.

"Dave.." Mami's soft voice now roused me from long daydreams.

"Yes mi.."

"You wake up instantly daydreaming, still sleepy? mami was in cuekin."

"eh.. yes... why mi?" reply gurgaon.

"So Mami said, if you're not ready for this wedding, we can cancel. Don't push yourself because Noni son, after all the effort we do now is not necessarily successful."

I looked at the face of my mother who was holding back her tears.

"It doesn't mean you have to marry the woman you don't love Dave. Marriage is for a lifetime, don't play with your life like this." Mami said in a voice that shook again.

The woman got up from her seat and walked to the door. Looks like Mami couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

"Mi, who said Dave wasn't in love with Dave's future wife? Mama don't have to worry about that. This marriage will continue." I said steadily.

Mami flipped her body so I could see her cheeks wet with tears.

"You sure?"

"Yes mi."

"Thank God. My mom feels better now. Mami does not want to seize your happiness son, how nantu mami and papi can meet your parents in nature there, if we instead sacrifice your happiness for Noni." said Mami Parau.

"Mommy doesn't need to worry about Dave mi's happiness. This marriage was something that Dave wanted. Mami and papi just need to be happy while accompanying Noni. Isn't happiness contagious? So the mother must continue to be happy, so that during the treatment Noni is also happy. If Dave was alone, he would be very happy. Which guy is unhappy on his wedding day?" I said at length while stepping following the position of mami.

"Well, your son is already a big mother." mummy mami as if talking to a woman, of course the sentence is aimed at mommy in nature there.

My mother hugged me softly. The warmth that had once disappeared, suddenly returned to envelop my heart.

The groom's suit is already attached to my body. Silver colored shirt covered clean white coat and matching colored cloth pants. A rose in baby pink on my chest. I stepped into the living room inhabited only by papi.

"Well, you look handsome and very handsome, son." praise Papi while patting me on the shoulder.

"Thank you pi." I replied with a smile on her.

"Your Daddy and Mommy must be proud to see you from up there." Squeezing my shoulders slowly.

"The fire can be." I replied casually.

"Bapi is also proud, seeing this brave papi boy."

"Thank you pi." I replied sincerely.

"Either. This is mommy why else try? Dandan from morning until this hour has not been sorted out as well." scolding papi while glancing at the clock in his hand.

"Sit for a minute." Take Papi to me, and then we sit on the living room couch.

"Dave, that woman is hard to understand, but you can't protest. For example, the mother. You know my mom gets up faster, takes a shower earlier, but she's done and takes the longest. But papi can't protest with your mom. As men, although we don't fully understand, we should be able to give in to the woman we love." papi said.

Of love? A lady? To defeat the woman we love? The cintya? I don't want to think about everything about that right now. Just do this marriage and quickly figure out the best way to treat Noni.

I stared at the image now reflected by the mirror.

"oh is that me?" I murmured in my heart.

"Well, sister.loe is very beautiful." said Giordani who is now in my room.

......

"What's the point of being beautiful but never falling in love? Not even had time to fall in love has been asked to marry the same annoying man." I protest in my heart.

"Loe mute brother? by the way dong."

.....

I just put my lips together because I was upset.

"Beautiful manyun."

"Whisper loe."

"Don't be fierce" said Giordani who was sitting on my bed.

"Daddy, can you help me escape?" ask me carefully while following her up to the bed.

Giordani looked at me with full rounded eyes plus a wide gaping mouth as if she could not believe what she had just heard.

"Gue seriously, hunt help me escape yok.."
