Not Always Beautiful

17. Legitimate

Whether I've fallen in love with her or not, for sure I just want to see her always happy, no tears should come out of her beautiful eyes even if it's just a drop.

This is our wedding day, the day a new relationship will begin, the day that will change my life and his life, changing my story and his story.

" I accept the marriage and marriage of Ameera Raneea Suhardi bint Danang Suhardi with the mascawin in cash" I said with one breath

" How are the witnesses legitimate?"

" Saahhhhh" Sah, yes she has legally become my wife to become a mother for my future children.

She came down the stairs with a very graceful, modern white kebaya with a bun making her look like a very beautiful and charming royal princess. With the help of his two best friends he is now sitting beside me, we pair the rings alternately, I reach for his cheeks and I kiss his forehead gently, he said, he kissed the back of my hand long enough I felt a tear fall on my hand, he cried, is he unhappy with this marriage?

I lifted her chin and it was true that she was crying, I immediately carried her into my arms

" Not crying anymore" he nodded.

Ameera

" Dad, thank you for raising me so well, thank you for patiently educating me and taking care of me with all your heart. Sorry if during my father's daughter I haven't been able to be a daughter I can be proud of" I hugged the angel God sent me to be my father with tears that never stop flowing, a father who is always a role model for his children, a father who always gives the best for his children

" Dad loves you more, son, you're daddy's best daughter. Now look and listen to father carefully" I let go of my embrace, looking into the eyes that always gave the calm "Adrian's a good man I'm sure he can definitely make this father's daughter happy" I nodded

"Had father's son can't cry again when the beauty is gone" I smiled

Akad and Sungkeman event completed the reception. I finished changing clothes, now I wear a long-sleeved light blue dress ready to welcome the guests who came. Adrian prefers I wear long-sleeved clothes

" You're so pretty Meera" Adrian's been waiting for me to turn out

" I've always been pretty, young master"

" I know, come on"

Hundreds or perhaps thousands of pairs of compact eyes stare at us from going down the stairs to sitting in the shade. It was getting dark and I was getting tired, it felt like the guests were not inexhaustible coming my legs really sore because standing too long

" all right"

Adrian

" Meera let's dance"

" I can't dance Adrian"

" Hear me, you only need to step to the right once, to the left once, then take one step back and turn, I'm sure you can Meera"

" all right"

We started dancing to a romantic song with the show's filler, Meera was very good at following my moves. She now wears a pink dress, she has also asked me to wear sneakers, I know her feet must be tired of wearing heels all day, after all, the dress she was wearing was long enough to cover the shoes she was wearing now.

For about five minutes we danced, and Meera was so embarrassed that almost all the guests were staring at us

" Miss time to change the dress to four" invited one of the makeup artists

" No need, you can come back" I know she must be very tired

" Good sir"

The show was over at 9:00, the parents were home, Mom and Lita were staying at Papa's rumh, and Meera and I were staying at a hotel near the building where our sacred event was held.

" Meera there's something I want to talk about"

" I'm tired, let's talk about it tomorrow I want to rest"

" Yes you've rested, I want to take a shower first" he nodded not forgetting to gently wipe the top of his head.
