Not a Substitute

B2 Goes To The Honeymoon

The wedding reception is still going on.

At the bridal table, Violet saw the man who had just become her husband. The husband she had just met less than an hour ago.

“How many users?” Violet asked. It would be impolite if he just called out the name if Agus turned out to be older than him.

Agus swallowed the food that was in his mouth. “I'm twenty-seven years.”

“Means you .. means mas is two years older than me. I'm twenty-five years.”

Violet feels like their wedding is not a wedding. But it is more similar to a large-scale blind date event by wearing a bridal costume and many guests.

“What does Mas do?”

“I'm unemployed.”

Eh? Unemployed? I have to live him? But maybe our marriage won't last long. It's okay to support Mas Agus for the next few months. Count in return for saving my face today.

“Home Mas where?”

“I don't have a home.”

Eh? No pa-pa. I have a home. Mas Agus can stay in my house for a while.

One by one the guests leave. The wedding reception is over.

Violet took Agus home. Violet and Agus had already changed their clothes with ordinary clothes.

Violet sees two plane tickets where she is going on her honeymoon after the wedding. Violet was going to throw it away. He felt there was no point in continuing the honeymoon.

After all, her husband is now not the ex-prospective husband she wants to spend time with. Not necessarily Agus to be invited to go both.

“But ..” Violet was hesitant.

“Let's go now.” Agus invited Violet to leave.

Violet booked the car online and they headed to the airport.

At airport.

Violet and Agus check in and then they board the plane. Ten hours later they arrived at the airport in town A. The airport car drove the two of them to the hotel.

In the hotel room, Violet sees heart-shaped red rose petals on the bed to welcome the arrival of the newlyweds.

Romantic but ... There's no way Violet spent a hot night with a guy she just met yet that day. He is afraid to do love one night or get sick because of promiscuity.

Violet also still hesitated to ask how many times Agus had done it because it was still the first day they met and unethical to ask about it personally.

Violet looked at Agus who was already lying relaxed on the bed while closing her eyes about to rest.

“Mas want me to book another room?” Violet knew they were husband and wife but they were still men and women.

“Neventless. Don't waste money. This mattress is big enough for both of us,” said Agus still with his eyes closed.

Agus patted the side of the bed that was still empty. “You're tired, right? We rest first.” Soon afterwards there was a soft snoring from Agus.

Why is Mas Agus not uncomfortable sleeping next to me? Why not like a movie? I should have slept on that couch.

Violet who was also feeling exhausted chose to split up next to Agus. He put a pillow in the middle but he canceled because there were only two pillows. One pillow was worn by Agus. And Violet can't sleep without a pillow.
