To the next day the wall clock shows at eight in the morning. Novia who was awake at dawn to perform dawn prayers and clean up her house from the rest of yesterday's event. Now finished some and clean his body that has been sticky because of his activities, Novia remained silent in the room while contemplating her brother's rude attitude towards her last night.
"Why are the people out there so familiar with her brother, even sometimes even like friends who happily exchange stories, passing a beautiful day together," muttered Novia while sighing long.
Before long he pondered the ringing phone also sounded from his cellphone which was quiet earlier. With a rather lazy step he went to take his phone from the top of the nightstand. A smile was painted when he found out who called him in the morning.
"Hallo assalamualaikum mas, tumben telfon morning gini usually busy in the office." Developing her sweet smile.
"Wa'alaikumsalam dear, today I leave let my assistant take care of her," he said gently. "Today I want to take you to the villa, I know you're no good, baby." With an anxious and worried tone.
"I'm fine, there's nothing to worry about" Novia said.
"Dear, I'll be home soon you're ready to be."
"Yes yes, my geez my future husband brought a very yes," he said meledek.
"Hmmmm dares to sneer now." looks anxious.
"Yaudah I am ready first yes mas," he said while easing the previous laughter.
"Yes my beautiful darling" he said softly.
"Assalamualaik."
"Wa'alaikumsalam."
Novia rushed to get ready to leave, after all for what to stay at home also thought it would even make her more sad because of the attitude of her brother and mother.
Shortly finished Novia preparing Andra's car parked sweetly in her yard. Novia rushed out of the house and immediately greeted her lover who came. Looked a handsome man with an informal appearance and relaxed impressed was down his luxury car.
"Is there a mother inside? I want permission to take this cute kid away" Andra led after getting out of the car and approaching Novia who was standing on the porch.
"Mother is not there, sister is no longer working. Let me just whatsapp later," he said flatly.
"Jaudah yuk is leaving." Open the car door for Novia.
...(.(.Andra)...
...(.(.Novian)...
On the road the atmosphere was silent, there was only the sound of songs that sounded soft. Novia stared blankly ahead as if her thoughts were somewhere. Andra also focused on driving until they came out of the highway into the countryside and pine forests are quite shady and cool.
"Darling are you okay?" andra asked worried about the state of her lover, because from the moment they were on the trip Novia just silent as usual cheerful and excited.
"Okay mas, I'm okay," he said smiling reassuring Andra.
Andra just smiled as she gently stroked Novia's head. Andra did not want to ask a lot of questions in the condition that he knew that Novia was not okay. After several hours of travel, they arrived at Andra's private villa. Andra put the car into the garage, got down and opened the door for Novia. Novia just smiled without a word, Andra became confused by the behavior of his future wife who suddenly became a gloomy.
They entered the villa, greeted by a middle-aged woman they used to call bik sumi. In the tv room Novia sat and still remained silent, not saying a word. The look on his face was still as lethargic as the beginning of them leaving for the villa earlier. Andra sat down beside him directly holding Novia's hands together and stroked the back of her hand gently.
"Darling why? is there a problem?" ask her gently.
"No, I'm good, I'm good, '" he replied, showing a smile that Andra understood once was full of burdens.
"Look at me here, let's see me" Andra and Novia said, staring at the face of her future husband by holding back tears that would spill. "Denger ya baby, you have me you're not alone if there's any story with me. We're two months away from getting married, let's learn from now if there's any problem with your future husband." Staring fixed Novia.
Novia was unable to say that her lips were too faint to speak and to tell the painful things she had felt for many years. Where she was always treated unfairly, her freedom was snatched away, her happiness was always sacrificed to her brother who was dear to her by her mother. mamah and her adoptive father who notabane her is the brother and sister-in-law of her mother also adore muja her brother Mutia, as if Mutia never had the slightest defect in their eyes. Only his father was neutral without defending anyone, but it all feels useless because often his sister and mother always ditrama as if Novia is a bad boy and never according to the words of his parents. Not infrequently his sister and mother also slandered Novia by complaining to her father Novia that Novia is lazy and does not know about homework.
Novia was still silent not budging at all when asked by her future husband. Suddenly Novia felt her body being grabbed by the man before her. That's where Novia's tears broke, the tears she was holding and trying to hold now she can't stand anymore. Andra gently rubbed his future wife's head, he just silently let Novia cry in his arms. Andra knows and understands that women sometimes need to cry just to reduce the pain.
"Cry if it can make you relieved" said Andra softly.
After a while Novia stopped crying, and began to be able to tell all the complaints that filled her brain all this time. Andra seems upset and restrained his anger when his future wife told him everything she had experienced so far, Novia also told him that she was slapped last night by her brother. Andra growled and and threw a vase of flowers in his presence. Novia was aghast to see Andra's usual expression looking shady and far from the word ferocious, now turned into a tiger that wanted to devour its prey.
"Ma..mas, to.please don't be angry I'm afraid," she said brickly resisting the fear of seeing her future husband.
"Sorry baby, I'm out." Clutching Novaa's tiny body and poking her back calmed down.
"I beg you never to hate my family, no matter how much they are my family." Take off the hug and stare fixedly at Andra.
"This is why I believe in making you my wife, you are kind, your heart sincere. And my regret is why I'm with you now. You must have been tormented for years by beating all this yourself," he said anxiously.
"I'm okay, baby, until now the proof I can pass all this. And that's why I'm now a strong woman and not easily give up on the situation," she said trying to calm her future husband.
"I promise, from now on I will take care of you. I won't tell the bad woman that it hurts you" he said with great emphasis.
"Yes, thank you." Novia smiled happily.
