That day arrived

The conversation ended with an agreement. Where Alvin remained in his stance, and Rina was finally going to get married.

All the stories are revealed from Rina's mouth. He does not exaggerate or hide. Let Alvin know what's going on.

Alvin himself scheduled Rina to meet with her parents later tonight.

Ready not ready. Even Rina felt she was dreaming this time. It is a long, hard dream to wake up.

“Give me your mobile number,” pinta Alvin.

That was the last sentence Rina heard from Alvin at the end of their conversation this afternoon.

As agreed, Rina came to Alvin's house in polite clothes.

Mr. Arga and Mr. Lala welcomed him with joy. Rina was able to adjust to the condition of the Alvin family.

“Where are your parents, son? Aunt Om should propose to you first,” asked Mr. Arga.

Rina hush. Occasionally stealing glances at Alvin sitting next to him.

“Rina orphan, Well,” replied Alvin.

“Astagfirullah, sorry, Son,” said Bu Lala.

Rina smiled. It's true that's the truth. He's a kara here without family, fighting alone to survive the cruelty of the world.

“You like each other?” Mr. Arga apparently smelled something bad. He saw the movements of Rina who seemed uncomfortable when she was close to Alvin. “You don't feel compelled?”

The question was asked to Rina, to make the girl go awry. Cold sweat started to wet his hands. She's nervous. More precisely, fear of mispronouncing.

“We agreed to marry because of the decision of the two,” between Alvin

Rina's eyes suddenly glanced at Alvin, while the one she glimpsed relaxed without any burden.

“So, no coercion, Yah!” obviously Alvin.

Unexpectedly, the corner of Alvin's left eye glanced at Rina. It was as if the man had coded for Lina to be quiet.

“Sgratitude.” Mr. Arga no longer abducts.

Rina hush. Alvin dominated in this conversation. Until the wedding date is finally set. Rina only asked to be given time to be able to complete the task before the day of the Qabul ijab. Sure, Alvin agreed. He had no right to ban Rina.

“After marriage later. We plan to move house.” Suddenly the decision was made Alvin without discussing first with Rina.

Lina looked at Alvin. Waving a sharp look. However, the man ignored him in the least.

“You've bought a house?” ask Ms. Lala.

“Maybe today, Bun,” replied Alvin.

“You sure?” Miss Lala didn't just ask Alvin. But also to Rina. “Padahan staying here is also not a problem.”

Lina's mouth wants to open. However, Alvin quickly answered his mother's question.

“Mother, should not it be after marriage the couple live independently? In the Lord, I look for a house that is not too far from here,” replied Alvin.

Mr. Arga understands. He can't ban it if it's the best. All the talk is over. Rina returns home without Alvin. He left alone, so he went home wanting to be alone.

Alvin just drove up to the terrace. Letting go of Lina from her sight.

“See you again on the wedding day. We start a new world together,” said Alvin so lightly.

Lina took a deep breath. Exhales slowly. “Mr, don't contact me without interest. Thank you for dinner. I'm pampering. Assalamualaikum.”

Instead of prolonging the conversation, Rina chose to go from in front of Alvin. She carried a heart of annoyance, because the man who would become her husband was willing to make a decision.

Rice has become porridge. He also could not withdraw his words. A promise is a debt. A haphazard remark that now leads him to a wedding gate.

“Astagfirullah, patience, Rin. It's a test.” Lina rubbed her chest twice. The girl walked to the right. Where Alvin's house is not far from the bus stop. He can take the bus home.

Time goes by so fast. The wedding day arrived. Lina picked up Bu Lala to go to their house. For, the Ijab of Qabul will be done in the house of Alvin.

Lina according to him. He can't even escape from this reality. Until this moment, only Caca knew about this crazy marriage. The girl also came to accompany Rina.

In the spacious room, Rina finished her self. The kebaya dress is attached to her body with a hijab that remains to cover her chest. Simple makeup, but it looked beautiful on Lina's face. That's what Caca can see right now.

“Rin, don't you want to escape?” ask Caca who still doesn't believe in any of this.

Lina was silent for a moment. There are two perias who are cleaning the tools.

“For what?” ask Rina back.

Caca patted both shoulders of Rina softly. “From kayak gini. Duh, I went crazy myself.” The girl scratched her non-itchy head.

Lina smiled sweetly, hiding what was really in the corner of the heart. “That's not to be thought of. Anyway, I also promised.”

“Totally?”

“Yes, dong. I'm where I might be kidding.”

Caca pinched Rina's right cheek, anxious. “The reason is that you often jailin me. So ... I thought you were again prank.”

A small laugh came out of Lina's mouth. He seemed to enjoy the time that must have passed, and would soon lead him to a new status.

Wives. The status that Rina will soon be holding in a few minutes.

Justright. Miss Lala came with a smiling face. Approaching Rina slowly, then said, “Your husband is waiting, Darling.”

The sentence was short, but it was so frightening to Lina. The leaflet in his heart never ends. He is at war with reality.

Rina nodded slowly with a straight look in front of the mirror. “Yes, Tan.” He stood up, preparing his heart for everything that would happen in front of him.

Bu Lala and Caca held Rina's hand. Take the girl out of the room, and down the stairs.

Alvin's extended family came all over. The plan, the party will be held later tonight in a building.

The footsteps of Rina, Bu Lala, and Caca were slow. However, definitely. When we got to the middle of the stairs. All views were on them. Especially Alvin who just kept staring at Rina.

The third step just reached the end of the stairs. It's downstairs, actually. Inadvertently the blind end of Rina caught the presence of someone. The person in the crowd in front of him.

Rina's heart was racing. All his joints were suddenly limp, so he was very difficult to walk.

Alvin realized that. He doesn't know what's going on.

Lina paused for a moment. Make Caca and Bu Lala throw each other a glance.

“Honey, why stop?” ask Ms. Lala.

Rina. He did not answer and took another step forward. Where Alvin was waiting for him.

Lina was in front of Alvin. Ms. Lala put the couple's two right hands together and said, “Start this second. You guys are a couple that should complement each other.”

Rina could not concentrate.

“Well, Alvin. Hold your wife's crown and say a prayer,” continued Bu Lala.

Alvin understands. He removed his right hand from Rina, then moved it to her head while praying.

The marriage has already happened. They officially become husband and wife who do not know in the future what will be like. Like water, everything just flows.
