My Twin Wives

Engagement

Nuna POVs

Today is my engagement day.

Am I happy?

I don't know. I feel like there's something wrong with this engagement.

Ever since my meeting with Sister Diandra back then I started to feel weird.

I feel like my life is going wrong. Daffi seemed foreign to me. I love him, he loves me, we love each other, but why does my heart say this is wrong?

'Daffi will get his memory back one day' said the word I kept patriating in my heart, I made the handle so that I wouldn't falter.

When that happens, our love will both grow stronger. I kept convincing my heart.

But again I feel this is not true.

What happened to my heart?

I looked at my reflection in the mirror.

Like not myself. I'm not used to polishing my face with make up, but I never use makeup as luxurious as this.

Usually I just polish it thin on my face to make it look fresher.

I don't like makeup that is too flashy.

Even now I don't recognize my face anymore.

'Oh my God, what did that thing do to my face?

Why do I doubt it's my face' I muttered to myself.

Tok tok, tock,

a knock on the door before someone opened it and entered the room

"Na, are you ready?" Ask mother.

Looked mother's face sparkling happy twinkle.

Of course it's my engagement, mother's only daughter.

Surely mother is very happy, inversely proportional to my heart that suddenly hesitated with this engagement.

I don't know, what is this so-called ordeal to engagement?

I just nodded with a smile.

My tongue still feels stiff to say the word.

"You're so pretty, are you nervous?"

Ah mother, you can always read your daughter's feelings.

"Yes ma'am, Nuna is nervous" I replied softly.

"Here, drink first to make your nervousness a little less" mother gave me a glass of water.

Immediately I sipped it slowly.

The water was fresh down my throat.

"Where? Still nervous?" Ask the next mother

"A little ma'am" I replied as I took a deep breath.

I'm trying to get rid of this nervousness.

No, it's not this nervousness that's my problem right now.

But the doubts in my heart that had suddenly appeared over the past three days.

'What's wrong? What did I miss?' The question kept turning around in my head.

"Yes!" Mother's voice breaks my banquet.

God, why am I daydreaming?

"Don't daydream Na," mother gently rubbed my back. I just nodded while taking a deep breath.

"Come on, I'll drop you down" Mom helped me up.

I don't know much about fashion.

Most importantly, I am comfortable wearing it.

I saw my reflection in the glass again.

All right, everything looks good now.

There's nothing wrong with how I look tonight.

Mom took my hand and took me out of the room.

Walk slowly towards the ballroom where the party is held.

The nuna POV end

*****

Dusk is seen hanging on the western horizon.

The night will come soon.

A man walks into the funeral.

A white lily appeared in the man's grasp.

Walking straight through block after block of the cemetery, as if he had memorized which tomb he was going to.

The man stopped at a tomb that seemed to be rarely visited.

There was only a bouquet of roses that had withered above the tomb.

Grass weeds were seen growing began to grow in several places around the tomb.

He crouched down, gently rubbing the tombstone stuck in the tomb.

The flower in his hand had moved to the top of the tomb.

"Hi Jes, how are you?" Said slowly.

There's no answer.

Only the wind and the sound of crickets could be heard from a distance.

"Are you happy there now?" Ask the man again.

But still no answer.

The man plucked the weeds around his best friend's grave.

Sometimes he would rub a tombstone on it.

"Daffi is engaged today Jes, with the girl I love" Daffa's voice trembled slightly. There is still sadness there.

"I'll be fine. I'll release the girl as I let you go for Daffi" the look of grief became more and more apparent on Daffa's face.

I don't know why he even confided in Jeslin's tomb.

"Daffi loves the girl, mami Salma also blesses their relationship. So what else am I worried about?" Daffa looked far away.

The sky started turning black.

The night is approaching.

Daffa took a deep breath, gathering all the strength within him.

"I have to go to Jes, but I promise I will come back here again" Daffa said .

After stroking Jeslin's tombstone one last time, Daffa left the deserted cemetery.

The wind accompanied Daffa's departure.

After slightly confirming his appearance, Daffa got into his car and immediately spurred him towards the hotel.

He's coming tonight.

There is no place to run.

Daffa will face this.

He will prove that Nuna never loved him.
