Hana did not answer. Because from behind sitting Tiara saw Luke walking closer accompanied by a middle-aged woman dressed in the area, who had just seen Hana sitting near the bride.
Bu Novarin's.
An 8-year-old would mean he was 50 or 51. Almost her mother's age. But because this woman wears thick makeup and has a large beard, she is less able to imagine what this woman really looks like. Although this woman seems to have a pretty interesting profile.
Hana who then slowly stood up and focused on looking behind her, made Tiara look back...Lukas the older brother and Novarin's mother former boarding house came. Arriving before him and Hana at the same time he had stood up and twisted his body, putting on a radiant face welcoming the woman he had once been very disinclined.
Novarin first smiled back at the smile of Luke's youngest brother.
"North."
"Mother..." Tiara bowed slightly, showing a respectful attitude.
"And..." Then Novarin turned to look at Hana... Until interrupted by Luke who voiced an explanation.
"Cesilia Hannah. At the altar, Ms. Nova had not been formally acquainted with my wife. Here he is."
Hana gulped down some saliva. "Mrs Novarin." He also showed respect by bowing his head slightly to Novarin.
The woman who a dozen years ago according to Tiara's story had a crush on Luke was nodding, humming Hana warm and friendly.
"I didn't get to go to your wedding in Solo or the reception at your mother's house, Hana. Forgive."
"Oh, geez, it's okay, mom-" Hana doesn't know what else to say. Under the attention of Luke's gaze directed at her, Hana even became lost for words. Still surprised to know the husband and Novarin's mother used to have a beautiful memory both, now both of them simultaneously appear before Hana.
And it looks like Lukas is investigating his reaction in dealing with Novarin...
Both Novarin and Luke, one against the other did not seem clumsy. That's what Hana caught, quietly researching back.
Then Novarin said continuing, his tone sounding soft motherly. "I was sick at the time. Pretty bad. Bed Rest up to 1 week instead. So I can't go to Solo to attend your wedding appointments. Your marriage." Novarin saw and gave a glimpse of Luke, the man smiled back. And Hana, can only O-o without a sound. "And even to this day I haven't been able to come to visit your house..Oh, no excuse, ' right?"
"Mother, really, really, really, that's okay," Hana softly nodded.
"Okee. Then thank you for your understanding" said Novarin finally. "But by the way you two broke away here, is there an important conversation? Soon the wedding cake cutting session will begin. Come you guys close in there, hm?"
"Ready, mother," Tiara said. "The two of us were just..hehe.talking a little about Hana's pregnancy."
"Ooo..." Novarin nodded his head again. Look back at Hana. "Sometimes I'll visit home, Hana. If in the near future it still can't, you know, after a wedding, usually the busyness that has a wish still won't be finished completely."
"Yes, mom, I can understand. Thank you, Nova's mother is planning to come visit. We'll be happy to look forward to the time when you can come."
"Either. Yes, yes, I died again. I'm going around looking for a spread out guest so they'll be coming to the wedding cake cut area soon."
"Please, Miss Nova, please..."
The throbbing sound of Cymbal and Tom-Tom drums being suddenly thumped hard and heard through loudspeakers made the four of them focus spontaneously split, simultaneously looking into the middle of the Ballroom room there.
Music shook the room again. The new song Big Beat has been played replacing the previous song. Hana at a glance looked across the room, the next singer on the stage was a young female famous soap opera artist.
"Yuk Hana, Tiara, I'll stay."
"Yes, Miss Nova..." Koor Hana and Tiara.
Hannah thought Luke would stay. It turned out that her husband was turning around, walking after Novarin without saying anything to her and her sister.
"Who was on stage was the bride's biological cousin, sister Hana," Tiara was heard saying, surprising the sister-in-law. Yes, his voice, yes what he said. Bringing back Hana's attention to her.
" 'Tuesday, mbak?"
"Hm-mhhhh. Son of an older brother Novarin. Once as young as a toddler he was often taken by his parents to visit the boarding houses," explained Tiara while sitting again on a chair.
"Ooo..." Hana sat down.
"Maybe he's 21 or 22 now. I no longer follow his maturity. Just know he's an artist now."
"He's so pretty... I just found out she can sing in such a good voice."
"Sister Hana also looks beautiful today..."
"Huh?" Turning automatically from the stage to Tiara, Hana found the woman's smile expanding in silence for a moment looking at her face.
The two of them looked at each other.
"Sister Luke is not a playboy, sister Hana..."
Tuhs...
Wait, Tiara said what?
Hana 'watch out'.
As a continuation the sister-in-law laughed first, before dropping the bomb in front of Hana.
"Meiska before entering the convent took the time to tell me. Trust me, only to me. Reporting that sister Hana and brother Luke.actually there is no feeling of love between the two of you when deciding to get married, which of course sounds very, very surprising to me."
Even though she was prepared, Hana was still made to react in shock.
The woman's shoulders sagged, revealing a compassionate expression looking at Tiara like a thief caught stealing.
"Sir Tiaa..." Hana mentioned her name with a spooning tone. "What else..the other one that Meiska told me about?"
One side of her husband's family finally found out...
Tiara immediately calmed Hana down. "Rilex. It's okay. There's nothing else, brother."
Hana took a slow breath. Relieved. In front of her sat Tiara tried to smile again, but continued her conversation later with serious words.
"And yeah, I was shocked. Also wonder. Because Luke's brother who suddenly made a request to marry itu.
What's all of a sudden?"
Ohhh...
If at first the mother-in-law's house, now the suspicion of a Tiara is the most worrying for Hana after she died.
Tiara, her full name is Pearl. Augustine Pearls. During this time the sister-in-law was just as good to Hana, as the other members of Luke's family. Although rarely or maybe only once or twice have ever established communication can be said Tiara treated herself with respect, respect, no matter Hana younger than 4 years from him. No matter the first time the two of them met, it was only Hana's wedding day.
But if the situation now Tiara already knows and is reading what is the marriage of the brother happened without the feeling of love, what next will happen again?
