Not Always Beautiful

Not Always Beautiful
33. I Love You



I know all about my wife, including her relationship with the King. I don't mind if Meera doesn't love me, but when she finds out she loves someone else, it hurts a lot. I don't know when their relationship began.


Once upon a time, it occurred to meera to let her be happy with the man she loved. But mama's right, Meera's mine and will forever be mine. Whether you love me or not, you'll just be my wife.


I've given up on letting you choose your own path until you choose the path that hurts me and I still give in. But this time I won't budge, you have to come back to me. Walk with me on the path I have chosen.


"But you're daydreaming?" Meera moved her hand in front of my face


"Ahh no, why baby?"


"Obviously you're daydreaming, the movie's over" Meera moved from her seat, trailing behind her


"Would you go home or what?"


"Go home and mas"



"Mas let's be late"


"Geez, my wife is so excited, wait for another one"


"There you go first, we'll follow"


"Mama ain't no papa, come on"


"Yes yes. We go first ma"


"Yes, be careful"


We were in Bandung to attend Marko and Meli's wedding. Fuck Marko, so all this time the girl he said was close to me was Meli. This time we stayed at Papa's house. Lita's mother's father also stayed the night. Ahh basic me, happiness is clear before the eyes, even busy with pseudo happiness.


We got to five minutes before the deadline. I didn't see Caca or Tya, maybe they were inside accompanying the bride. Om Riyadi and Aunt Riyanti welcomed me.


"Assalamualaikum om aunty" I kissed the backs of the hands of these two parents who were in front of me


"Waalaikumsalam dear, ko yourself where is your husband?"


"Aunty was picking up a cell phone in the car, oh yeah the same mother's father is still on the road" shortly mas Adrian returned


"Assalamualaikum om aunty, how are you" said Adrian


"We're good, son, I'm sorry when you got married om and aunt didn't see you guys, there was a sudden business"


"Meera, get Adrian in. Komar is in his study next to the prayer place, Caca Sama Tya in Komar's room accompanies Meli" explained om Riyadi


"That's Komar out om" I saw Marko come out of his room, he looked dashing with Tuxedo attached to his body.


The marriage contract began, with one breath Marko has made Meli as his legitimate wife. Meli came out with Caca and Tya beside her, she looked very graceful. My relationship with Tya? Already improving, Tya apologized a few days after the flush incident.


Various customary events have been completed in the implementation, lasting wisdom and smoothly. The housekeepers were busy delivering food and drinks to the guests. Adrian and I sat in the backyard. I continue to praise Meli who is very graceful and beautiful in a modern white wedding kebaya, without looking at me. Adrian said I was much prettier when I was a bride first. I smiled, clasped his hand and whispered in his ear


"I Love you" adrian turned to me, I was embarrassed. My face must have been blushing


"Well what you said earlier, I didn't hear" he must be teasing me


"Nothing, forget it" I returned to my sitting position. Ehem, there was Deheman's voice. Adrian and I looked over


"I'm the one who married you romantic-romantic" Marko


"Oh, congratulations once again. My two best friends are married, it's nice" I clasped Meli's hand, she blushed in shame


"Aunty Lia mana, don't look at it anymore"


"Oh yes the same mother who has gone home, want to leave her photos again" Marko ber Oh ria


"We also say yes, today all go home" continued mas Adrian


We say goodbye to Caca Tya, Om Riyadi also aunty Riyanti. Go back to my house to pick up some luggage and leave. We arrived in Jakarta to coincide with the office hours. Jammed? Don't ask. Bored of? What else.


Almost two hours of traffic jams, because in addition to the hours of home office, there are also accidents that make the streets more jammed. Finally at home. Bi Surti welcomed us and took over our luggage. After the shower and dinner we chatted in the backyard while waiting for the food to digest properly.


"Mas about what I said this afternoon...."


"Which one"


"I'm not done yet, listen to me"


"Yes yes" Adrian looked at me


"I think I've fallen in love with you, I'm nervous when you're not with me, I'm upset when you don't call. I also don't like it when you're too far away from me"


Mas Adrian said nothing, he pulled my chin and kissed me softly, the sensation was different when a kiss in the body of love. Adrian carried me without taking off a kiss. Now we're in the room, put down my body, take off the kiss and look at me. I could see the reflection of my face in his eyes.


Your sincerity and gentleness made me realize that I too had fallen in love. Although it was a little late, in the end I fell in love with you.
