Marry Siri

CHAPTERS 14. Akhats

Datuk Iskandar's condition has worsened in recent days.

He could no longer speak.

Only the mimic of his face alone is a sign that the signifier that he is still able to survive even though the heartbeat and breathing should be helped with medical devices.

The Young Master then called all his workers to express his intention of marrying Nadia at Papa's last request.

"There's something important that I want to talk to all of you about Papa's last request to me and Nadia. He wanted to see us get married before his eyes were completely closed. Nadia and I have talked about this issue in private before. And we both agreed to fulfill Papa's last request. Therefore I will marry Nadia in series tomorrow after tomorrow. And I ask for help from all of you to prepare for everything. The marriage contract will take place at the hospital in front of Papa.

For Sugi, I want you to leave for the village tomorrow morning to pick up Nadia's mother. While Tamrin and Mr. Rital please help me to prepare. And Old Mak also Bik Sari please help Nadia yes..!!" said the Young Master at length explaining.

All could only nod approvingly to Young Master's request without anyone protesting. Including Nadia.

Nadia had actually also told this to Old Mak and Bik Sari, so they were not surprised at all when they heard the Young Master publicly announce to them about this matchmaking.

Except for Bang Sugi and Thamrin, both of them were shocked when they heard the Young Master's words just now. But none of them dared to refute or interrupt Young Master's words.

After the short meeting was over, Young Master returned to his office to work. While Nadia was escorted by Sugi to the hospital to guard the Great Lord.

"Bao.. Mak already knows the problem of Diah's wedding plan with Mr. Cik.. But Mak did not know that actually Mr. Cik already has a wife. So Diah beg you not to know Mak Ya Bang.. Diah is afraid of Mak's shock and his heart relapses if she knows Diah married someone's husband. Do you understand Diah's position..??So please Diah ya Bang.. Please..!!" Nadia said on her way to the hospital.

Sugi was very understanding of Nadia's position that could not refuse Datuk Iskandar's request to marry Tuan Muda.

"Abang understands.. God willing, everything will go well.. Whatever the reason you are married, marriage is not to be played with. Maybe Young Master is Diah's soul mate. I pray that from this forced relationship it turns into inseparable love. Because you know very well that Young Master is a very good and caring figure. Her first marriage did not go well. May her marriage to Diah this time be a happy ending. Aamiin" Bang Sugi advised Nadia.

Nadia simply replied to Sugi's advice with a slight smile.

It is highly unlikely that her marriage to Mr. Rafiq will end happily.

The agreement they made about the future of the marriage that would only last as long as Datuk Iskandar lived made Nadia feel pain every memory of him.

The deal is just yes and Mr. Rafiq only knows.

*****

Kabul also goes well and wisdom.

A simple contract ceremony was held in front of Datuk Iskandar who was lying weakly on the bed.

Nadia looks so beautiful and graceful wearing a simple kebaya white bone with a soft green songket cloth that is in line with a small crown-shaped hairpin green anyway.

While Tuan Muda looks dashing wearing a white shirt suit and black skullcap that makes him look so charismatic when pledging a contract in front of the penghulu and Datuk Iskandar.

The only people present to witness their marriage were the closest people and Mak Nadia who came from the village with Abang Sugi's wife.

Nadia kept shedding tears during the ceremony.

Her cries grew stronger as Datuk Iskandar hugged her with happy tears.

"Well pray that ALLAH will bless your marriage, son.. Be a devoted wife to your husband.. A wife who always accompanies her husband in joy and sorrow. May the blessings be upon you both. Aamiin" Prayer Mak while hugging Nadia tightly in her cry.

"Even if your marriage is not based on love.. The Old Man continues to pray for the best in the relationship that has been established with the permission of ALLAH. May ALLAH then grow the love between you so that it is inseparable to Jannah.. Aamiin" said Old Mak also prayed.

Not a single sound could be heard from Nadia's mouth or Young Master's.

They continued to silence each other with their own raging feelings.
