Not a Widow

THE BONUS CHAPTER 3

Today everyone in Mahendra's house is preparing, soon they will see the kabul Ijab of Riya's marriage with Deno. Kabul is done at Mahendra's house while Deno's recipe has rented a building for their wedding.

Syafira had just finished taking care of the twins, Azka and Azkia were well-groomed. This time the two of them did not wear child clothes like they used to. Keenan bought her a coat and a little dress for her son.

"Is she beautiful yet?" Azkia asked Syafira. "Well, she's beautiful" Azka befell her. Azkia glanced at Azka with an annoyed look. "Kan kia nanya the same Mother is not the same brother"

Azka looked back at him. "Brother only represents Mother, does not the Bund?" Azka looked at Syafira. "Yes, your brother is right. Kia is beautiful. More beautiful than mother"

Syafira's words made Azkia smile embarrassedly. "What you said, you are beautiful. If you do not ask, you are handsome like papa" said Azka.

At the age of almost 3 years that Azka and Azkia can already think of adulthood.

"Yes handsome Brother, if not handsome Kia may not love Brother" Goda Azkia. Azka looked at him annoyed and then turned her gaze to the chest. Syafira smiled at the child's behavior.

"You wait here yes, Mommy wants to help your papa get ready" Syafira stroked their heads alternately. "Ready Nda" they answered simultaneously.

She left her son and went into the room to help her husband. Keenan is still not out of the bathroom, Syafira intends to get a suit and shirt for Keenan first.

Actually Syafira wanted to find clothes for Keenan, but he still remembered the words Keenan last night. "I'm more comfortable wearing a suit and shirt when I come to someone else's wedding"

Syafira opened her closet and got Keenan a suit and shirt. Then something fell from it. A red box. Syafira was curious about the contents.

The bathroom door opened, Keenan came out with a towel that covered his waist only. Keenan walked over to Syafira. "You found it first apparently"

Shafira turned towards Keenan. "This is what Mas?" "Open it up" Keenan replied. Syafira put her coat and shirt on the bed first. Then slowly open the box. Syafira was surprised by the content.

Inside there was a very beautiful necklace, the necklace had a pendulum with a heart symbol. Syafira liked it so much that she accidentally saw the purchase note of the necklace.

"2 M, that's 2 billion?" Shafira raised her head and looked at Keenan. Keenan. "I ordered the necklace from Paris about two months ago. And just come now."

"You likey?" Ask Keenan. Syafira nodded then quickly hugged Keenan tightly to make Keenan towel come off. Keenan is silent sculpting. He did not want to move and wake his little brother.

"This is a special gift that I like the most, thank you Mas" Syafira immediately let go of her embrace and tried her necklace while facing the mirror.

Keenan quickly picked up his towel and put it back on. He breathed a sigh of relief. "Here, let me help you put it on" Keenan took the necklace from Syafira's hand and put it on.

Syafira stared in amazement, the necklace perfectly fitting her white skin. Keenan is never responsible for giving gifts. Besides being expensive, the quality is also very good.

"The necklace is beautiful, but even more beautiful is the person wearing it" Syafira smiled shyly. Then he turned his body and looked at Keenan. Syafira tiptoed and then kissed Keenan's lips at a glance. "Thank you, sir."

Keenan smiled then he returned the kiss of Syafira on his lips. "Now help me put on my clothes, I need to look good at my mom's wedding." Keenan. Syafira chuckles.

"Without any clothes you are still handsome Mas" Syafira honestly. "Do you think you're more handsome than me or Deno?" Keenan's question made Syafira raise her eyebrows. "You're just as handsome"

"At least call it our own excellence" said Keenan. Shafira looked at Keenan. "Okay, his superiority from you is different. If Kak Deno excels as a doctor, if you excel as a Racer and Ceo. Haven't you?"

Keenan nodded and then nodded. "Sekaramg quickly wear clothes Mas, soon the show will begin. I want to be ready for who I was. We were not ready yet"

"Yes there, all the guests have not come" Syafira nodded and went to the bathroom with her towel. Keenan started to wear his clothes one by one.

Outside the room, Mahendra looks at the decorations of his house that he has prepared for Riya. The decoration was pretty good as it was Riya's own choice. Mahendra looked at every corner of the room. Until his eyes fell on a room.

In that room Riya was being dressed by Mela's subscription makeup artist first. "When I decorate my mother like this, I remember the late mother of Mela. He used to use services when he was married to Mr. Mahendra" said the stylist.

"I've never met Mela at all. So I don't know much about him. Can you tell me about Mela? I became curious after hearing your story"

The makeup artist nodded then told me a lot about Mela that he knew. Riya occasionally chimed in on her words. "Just in the past Miss Mela was very good with me, at that time I ever wanted to decorate Bu Mela for a certain event but at the time of starting makeup I got a phone call from my father who was in the village. My father is sick and needs me."

Riya kept nodding. "Until finally Ms. Mela told me to go to the village and meet my father, even Ms. Mela gave me money for a trip to the village. I've never found a woman as good as her"

"I agree with you, even though I have never met him and have only heard of him. But I'm sure she's a really good woman. That's why Mahendra doesn't want to get married again"

"By the way mom said that she looks a lot like Almarhumah. Although your age is different but your face is almost the same" Riya smiled thinly, she looked at her still face.

.

The clock has shown at 9 am, as well as the invited guests have started to arrive. Riya was busy welcoming them. Same with Mahendra. Food for the guests has been prepared. And now just waiting for the groom to come.

"Deno, are you ready?" Sofi asked as she walked into Deno's room. Deno nodded, he felt very nervous. Moreover, this was the first time for Deno to get serious with women.

In the past Deno was just a playboy who likes to change partners. Deno has never dated a woman for more than 24 hours. At least 1 day once Deno has changed partners.

And the time came for Deno to be aware of his behavior. Satrio is the one who made Deno aware. Satrio gave Deno his leave for two days and two nights in his private room. Satrio didn't even let Deno out of the room after two days. After Deno realized New Deno can come out.

"Why daydream?" Tanya Sofi patted Deno's shoulder. "Deno remembered Deno who used to be Ma, Playboy and often playin women's feelings. And now Deno wants to marry a woman. That makes Deno a bit Nervous"

Sofi smiled. "Take the past as a lesson, now you are not the old Deno. The current Deno is a Deno that is attentive with Women. Mom is proud of you"

Deno smiled then he glanced towards his watch. Soon the show begins, Deno must leave immediately. "Come, papa's waiting in the car." Deno nodded.

During the trip to Mahendra House, Deno continued to practice saying kabul ijab. Deno does not want any mistakes when he said Ijab kabul later. Satrio smiled to see his old son training.

Deno and his two men have arrived at Mahendra's House. They were immediately greeted by Tio, Vienna, Mahendra and Keenan. While Syafira is still inside along with Riya.

Satrio and Sofi shook hands with Mahendra and the others. Then they went inside to start the show. Deno was ready in front of the ruler he took a deep breath and waited for Riya to come out.

As for Riya, she paced back and forth in her room for many times. Riya was very nervous half to death, even she was reminded even though the AC in her room was still alive.

"Tante, calm down. Take a deep breath and exhale" Syafira helps Riya to neutralize her nervous feelings. Riya did what Syafira said. "Tante is very nervous cow'

"Syafira knows, but this isn't a aunt's first marriage. Aunty shouldn't be nervous" comforted Syafira. Riya nodded then she opened the door of her room slightly and peeked.

Riya saw Deno and her family had come and were ready. The nervousness that had disappeared even more made Syafira give up. "Let's get our aunt out, aunt's been waiting for everyone"

"Tante is afraid of cows" said Riya like a child who was afraid of losing her mother. "Tante wants to go out with syafira or Syafira has to panggip brother Deno to pick up Aunt?"

Eventually Syafira gives Riya a choice. That way Riya was not confused or scared anymore. "Don't, auntie came out with you" said Riya sambip staring at Syafira.

Syafira nodded with a smile. "Well that dong aunt should have said it" Syafira opened the door of her room slowly and brought Riya to Deno.

All the guests looked at Riya with different views. Some are confused as to why the bride looks older and some also like her directly. Riya realized that.

Syafira escorted Riya to sit beside Deno, then she took a white cloth and put it on the heads of both of them. "Syafira stay first" . Syafira returned and reunited with her husband and children.

"It's all ready, right?" Keenan asked whispering to Syafira. "Udah Mas, stay to see the kabulnya ijab" replied Syafira. Keenan nodded then looked back at them.

"Can we start the show?" Ask the ruler while looking at the owner. "Oh yes please sir" the ruler nodded.

"Brother Deno, let's shake my hand and follow my word" Deno immediately shook the hand of the ruler with his hand. His hands shook when he shook the hand of his predecessor.

The ruler smiled understandably, during marrying people he had found a lot of very nervous groom like this.

"Brother Deno Alfiansyah, I marry and marry you with Riya Melani bint Arman Sutisno with Mas Kawin a car unit and 50 grams of gold and a set of prayer equipment paid in cash"

Deno uttered a bismillah in his heart. Then looked at that Penghulu with an already calmer heart. "I ACCEPT RIYA MELANI BINTI ARMAN SUTISNO'S MARRIAGE WITH THE DOWRY PAID IN CASH""

"How are the witnesses?" His penghulu stared at everyone present at this kabul ijab event. "SAHHHHH" answered them all "Alhamdulillahi robbil alamin" Penghulu recited a prayer and then rubbed his hand against his face. Likewise with Deno and Riya who also guaranteed.

"Now you two are legally married" Deno and Riya looked at each other for a few seconds. Then Riya immediately shook Deno's hand and kissed the back of her hand.

After that Deno, Deno kissed Riya's forehead solemnly. His hand touched the sweet potato of his wife and recited a prayer for her.

Deno's parents were very touched to see Deno had managed to say kabul ijab well. Even Sofi to tears so happy.

"Given the kabul ijab, Mas so remembered when the ijab kabul our marriage first" Keenan turned to Syafira. "Why did you first?" "Mas mispronounced your father's last name" Keenan replied with a faint smile.

"Look, I know Mas used to be as nervous as Sister Deno." Keenan.

The series of events after events have passed, now Deno and Riya are already in the building where they do the reception. Deno and Riya were sitting on the lap while looking at all the guests.

The radiance of happiness was clearly visible in their eyes. Satrio joined Mahendra and Tio who were again chatting. They talk about a lot of things. "So Mr Satrio is a cop?" Ask Tio.

"Yes right, I'm a cop" Satrio replied briefly. Mahendra and Tio just nodded their heads. Satrio watched his wife holding a child.

"Well, if you can tell who that little boy is?" Satrio asked Mahendra. Mahendra turned his head and saw Sofi holding her son. "That's the smallest, my son."

"And the twins they were my grandchildren and Tio" Azka walked up to Mahendra. "Opa..Azka wants to buy a car" said Azka. Satrio smiled looking at the very handsome Azka with his little suit.

Mahendra looked at Azka in confusion. "Azka want to buy a car?" Ask Mahendra. Azka nodded. "So Azka asked for papa but said papa was told to ask for opa only. Papa said, I don't have any money."

Tio chuckled softly, just a child his grandson had asked for a car, how gedenya later. "Azka want to buy a car like what? Papa's car is a lot. Gede again, Azka just choose" said Tio.

"Not wanting big, Azka wants her small. Who can use the remote like Azka's friend" Satrio really likes Azka. Azka looks funny in her eyes.

Satrio crouched down in front of Azka. "Hey whose name you are" asked her stale. Azka stared at him for a while then rewinded her steps and cheered beside Tio.

"Lho's? Kok Azka is hiding. That's Grandpa again nanyain Azka you know?" Mahendra looked at his grandson gently. Tio stroked Azka's head. "Said Mommy Azka can't talk to strangers"

Satrio widened his smile. "Grandfather is not a stranger. Grandpa is a good man. The proof is Opa you want to talk to Grandpa?" Satrio Again.

Azka kept shaking her head. "My granddaughter was so, it was difficult to get to know or chat with people she had just met. Satrio nodded in understanding, he did not give up just like that. "Later if Azka wants to talk to grandpa, then grandpa will buy a remote car how? Wanna don't?"

Azka's eyes twinkled, he walked closer to Satrio. "really? Grandpa wants to give Azka a remote car?"

Satrio nodded quickly. "What a fact"

"Horeeee buy a remote car. Thank you grandpa"

Satrio stroked the top of Azka's head. He has no grandchildren but seeing Azka now he wants to have grandchildren as soon as possible. Satrio's gonna order a grandchild on Deno. Who knows Deno will make it.
