Not as Beautiful as Roses

Adoption,,??

The rose still stands on her husband's grave. His eyes were puffy but he did not stop crying.

"Roses come on de." Take Mirna her brother.

The 21-year-old woman ignored her brother's words, she continued to cry hugging Dika's grave.

"You must reveal Dika, the Rose. Mama knows it's hard but it's been your destiny and Dika's." Rita hugged the Rose.

"Mas Dika why are you so soon dinggalin me mas." Lirih Roses.

"Ma, Arka to the car first." The man said coldly.

"Wait for Arka." Rita.

Arka stopped her footsteps. "What's the matter ma?"

"You must marry the rose immediately,"

"But ma-"

"Because that's your brother's last message,"

Arka clucked in annoyance and left the place.

Mirna looked confused by her sister's in-laws. "Wait ma, what does it mean to marry a rose?" ask Mirna.

"Yes Mirna, Dika said that the rose should marry Arka."

"Do you want to de?" ask Mirna to the Rose who still hugs Dika's tomb.

The rose moved, then wiped away her tears. "Because it's the last message from the mas if I want a brother."

"Yes, brother asked for you who is strong huh. You must be strong." Mirna.

The Rose's heart actually hurts, it hurts a lot. Not a day after her husband left she had to answer about her marriage to Arka, her sister-in-law.

"Mama wants you to get married with the rose immediately." Rita said to Arka who was focusing on driving.

"Rose again Roses! we can talk about it later!" firmly Arka.

"Rush! you forgot your sister's last message, she asked you to take care of the Rose and marry her!"

"Ma, the grave of Dika mas is still wet now mama has discussed my marriage with Rose?"

"Wildamah! because this is trust and not your mother's wish!"

"Honestly I don't want to marry Rose, I don't love her!" firmly Arka.

"Rush! mama doesn't care if you love or don't like the Rose, you have to get married!"

"Ma! That Arka has a boyfriend and Arka wants to get married too!"

"Mama doesn't care!! The rose the fine woman ate her mama agreed she married your sister Arka!"

"But--"

"If you refuse to marry Rose do not expect you will get Mama's inheritance, a penny Mama will not love you. Mama better donate all of Mama's wealth to the orphanage! because all this time also replace your papa Dika, not you." Threaten Rita.

"Keep on bandingin Arka sama mas Dika!"

"It's the reality! all this time you only know asking for money and money! from now on you replace your brother's position or-"

"Yes yes, Arka will replace the position of Dika mas!"

"And?" ask Rita.

"And married the Rose." Say the Arka with a little press.

"Good!" a short talk by Rita.

"I have to do this, if I refuse mama will not give me anything. I could be a vagrant." Inner Arc.

In another corner the Rose had just arrived home, her home with Dika.

"Why did you leave so soon, you lied and said you wanted to take me to America for a honeymoon? said you wanted to have a child with me, but now why are you leaving?" The rose continued to speak alone in the house.

Mirna could not accompany him because her husband will be returning from overseas tonight after his business deal is over.

The fate of Mirna and Roses is good, both married men who have a treasure, their parents have been gone since they were children. Since childhood Mirna was the one who took care of the Roses, although everything was lacking.

"How are the witnesses legitimate?"

"SAAHHHH!!"

"ALHAMDULILLAH."

Today Arka and Roses are legal to be husband and wife in religion and country, there is no happiness in the eyes of Roses and Arka.

Right after 7 days of Dika's departure, Arka and Roses carried out his mandate.

"Arka kiss Rose's forehead." Rita's whisper in her ear.

"Why is ma?"

"Carca!" rita's eyes glared.

By having Arka kiss the Rose's forehead. Some journalists perpetuate the marriage of the Arka and the Rose not because they are artists but because they are a large family of the Dewantara, the richest man in the city. Moreover, the news of Dika's death has started sticking out in the newspaper and suddenly his sister married his wife, will definitely be interesting news.

..

Roses and arcs stand side by side greeting the guests who arrive.

"Congratulations, my mother." Said a woman and hugged Arka tightly and was replied by her.

Serly, that woman is with Serly. Serly is Arka's girlfriend. They plan to get married this year but fate says otherwise, Arka is married to Rose instead. The woman he did not love at all.

"Thank you dear." Whisper Arka in Serly's ear.

Serly let go of her embrace and continued to greet the Roses.

"Congratulations." Serly.

The rose only smiled faintly at Serly without replying to her words.

"Jagain my girlfriend's fine." Whisper Serly and leave.

Roses just keep quiet without replying to the words of the woman who looks sexy.

"So you have a girlfriend? whatever I don't care." Inner Rose.

Since the cobul ijab, no one has started a conversation between the Arka and the Rose. They just shut up for each other.

The arc moved away from the pelaminan, its eyes surrounding every corner of the place.

"Kemana Serly?" batinnya.

"You looking for me?" said a woman behind him.

"Serly?" arka.

Arka pulled Serly's hand to a quiet place and hugged her tightly. "I miss you, too,"

"I'm also a mas." Reply Serly.

"You're gap, right? you're healthy, right?" Arka let go of her embrace, her stalling hand rubbed both of Serly's cheeks.

Arka drew her lips closer to Serly's but Serly held her back.

"Non't you now, somebody's gonna see." His word.

Arka immediately distanced herself from Serly. "You really love I have to go back to security must be my mama nyariin me."

Serly nodded then let Arka go.

"Where are you from Arka?" rita asked Arka who had just returned.

"A-arka abis from the toilet ma, yes the toilet." Said Arka nervously.

"Jaudah now you have the rose again do not wander!" firmly Rita.

"Yes Ma." Answer Arka lazy. The arka also walked to the pelaminan.

The rose remained silent without asking Arka who was now her legal husband.

"Will not the pegel stand?" sindir Arka's.

Hearing the insinuations from the Arka finally the Rose sat down without answering a word.

"Your calm mother is there, I have helped your desire to marry your sister. Although I honestly don't want and absolutely do not love him, I also know that Arka was forced to marry me because of you." Inner Rose.
