"today... Whether I should be happy or sad, in this wedding dress I was really scared. Lord... I don't understand why you gave such a fate. Are you not satisfied after taking my father and mother, you also took away my happiness, and let me get caught up in a marriage I did not want"
Riyu looked blankly at her reflection in the mirror, today Ryu will become a princess... But after that, it was just a dove in a golden cage.
Braaaackd... Someone kicked the door of the dressing room tight.
"Tu... Mr. Sam" said the bride-to-be nervously.
"You guys out! There's something I want to talk to my brother-in-law about" Sam gritted his teeth at Riyu sharply.
Riyu stood up trembling, but she tried to calm herself down to find out what Sam wanted. The fairies and maids rushed away with frightened faces, after the door closed Sam approached Riyu.
"What are you doing?" Riyu asked, stepping back to avoid Sam.
"So the man you're getting married to is Noval? You're playing me on purpose!" Sam confronts Riyu with his hand as Riyu is cornered.
"A... What's... You mean! Whoever I marry is none of your business! And I've never played you Sam!" riyu said shaking. Sam was silent for a moment because the first time he heard Ryu mention his name.
Sam raises Riyu's chin and kisses her, as Riyu shakes her hand and holds her body and pulls her into her arms.
"Please stop! Unhand me!" riyu said, pushing Sam.
"Ch... What is your purpose in marrying her? Selling yourself for Money? the facilities? the wealth? You should just say what you want, I can give it all to you"
Plaakkkp... Riyu's slap landed hard on Sam's right cheek. Her words left Riyu on fire unable to control her emotions.
They were silent for a moment, Riyu looked at her palm then looked at Sam with a guilty feeling.
Not long after that someone entered the dressing room...
"Sam... What are you doing here?" mrs Mahesa asked with a suspicious look.
"Hm... Why is Mahesa Madam? I came here just to meet my beautiful sister-in-law" Sam said in a paltry tone.
"Riyu's... Welcome to the Mahesa family, be careful... With the little foxes in this house. May you not be the same as them" said Sam bowed and then kissed Riyu's hand.
Sam steps away, while Mahesa's mistress is busy for a while holding back her emotions...
"What is Sam talking about with you Ryu?"
"Ti's... No ma, he just came to see me"
"Remember your status Ryu, and remember your origin. That way you will be the one who knows yourself! soon the wedding ceremony will begin. Take a good look at my words"
Madam Mahesa left. Ryu sat in front of the mirror, he could no longer hold back his tears.
Same time in another room...
"Sir Noval, soon your wedding ceremony will be started soon." said Dewi.
"Fuck that wedding, I'd rather play with you Goddess"
"Can't you hold on for the first night?" The Goddess' hand gripped Noval's arm.
"Haven't be chatty!"
"Ma! Where's your son!" Whisper Mr. Mahesa upset.
"So he's still in his room pa, he said if he's ready he'll come down"
"After him now otherwise I'll drag him down!"
Madam Mahesa rushed up, but as she was about to climb the stairs...
"Ehem... I'm sorry I'm late" Noval said with a smile.
"You are, for a long time what exactly are you doing!” gertak Mr. Mahesa.
"Sorry pa, there was a little business"
Riyu was relieved because her future husband had come, she had thought that Noval had run away and did not want to marry him. Riyu looked at Noval's face for a while looking carefully, he was indeed a handsome man, but there was an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, different when he looked at Sam.
The priest has uttered a sacred pledge to the bride, at the time of the last point.
"You have legally become a husband and wife, please Mr. Noval kiss his wife" said the priest Smiling happily.
Riyu feels clumsy and awkward when Noval approaches and is about to kiss her, because on the wedding day it is the first time Riyu has met Noval. Riyu closed her eyes, and felt the touch of Noval's lips douse her for a while.
The applause of the guests who came to the wedding ceremony was thunderous, Sam looked at Riyu and Noval with a look of disdain. Before the event was over, Sam left the reception.
"Where do we boss" Aji said while driving his car.
"To the city S"
"Good boss" said Aji straightforwardas. He looked at Sam from the lion. Aji knows something's wrong with Sam, but she also knows Sam doesn't want anyone to interfere with his business.
The night was getting late, the ceremony and reception had gone smoothly. The invited guests have come home, now Ryu will enter the bridal room.
His heart was pounding, he was thinking about what he should do this first night. Riyu's eyes looked at the bed decorated with fragrant flowers, The room decoration was beautiful, candles, flowers, making the room atmosphere romantic.
"Do you think I'll fuck you? Hemhs... Don't dream" Noval said suddenly.
"No, I just..."
"Do you like that bed? Sleep there"
"You?"
"I? Do you think I'll sleep in bed with you? Even my servants are educated and dignified! How could I be passionate about a village woman like you" Noval said as she slammed the door.
Riyu silently clasped her fingers. "Why they like to insult me so much, what is my fault. If they don't like me shouldn't make this marriage happen" Riyu whispered inwardly as she sobbed.
Ryu sleeps while holding a picture of both his father and mother, besides there is nothing else that can calm him down. Ryu recalled his childhood where when he cried, mother would hug him with a warm kiss on his forehead.
But now different, no more hugs, no more warm kisses. There is only solitude, and also loneliness... Ryu resigned to what would happen to him in the Mahesa family, whether he would stay alive. Though alive, but not with his feelings.
