OBSESSION WITH VAMPIRES

Wedding Day

Jean looks very slender in a thick blanket of white. The door to the balcony in the room crackled softly, Enver walking out answering a phone call. The morning breeze swooped in, greeting Jean's skin that was not covered in blankets.

With Jean's eyes open, Jean looks at the clock on her phone with her eyes still red. He massaged his temple slowly while gathering his consciousness. Jean sat on the edge of the bed scratching her arm, looking at Enver's back, who was busy discussing something on the balcony. Jean realizes that something is stuck to her upper right arm, and sees that the plaster is already stuck there. Jean came out of the embrace of her blanket, all over her body filled with plaster attached. While walking a bit staggering Jean revealed the blanket on the bed, looking for something, but what she was looking for was not there.

“Search what?”, Ask Enver on the balcony doorway that opens.

“Oh, is that where my shirt is?”, Jean asked as she scratched her neck.

Enver walked to the sofa, picked up a shirt that was on the side of the sofa.

“Wear this, your clothes have been thrown away, because it was exposed to blood”. Obviously Enver gave me another shirt.

“Oh, next time do not throw away, it can be washed”. Said Jean whose eyes still looked sleepy, while wearing the clothes given by Enver.

“Sleep in a moment, it's still half five”, said Enver who saw the condition of Jean's face which was clearly sleep deprived.

“You're kidding me?, I should wake up at three to start preparing. I feel guilty to the WO”. Jean spoke as she walked out of the room.

As Jean closes Enver's bedroom door from the outside, Jean sees Rani glaring at Jean.

“Jean where are you?, the WOs and the fairies are looking for you”. Rani pulls Jean into Jean's room.

“This I got!”, Jean's room filled with friends and some WO made Jean feel even more guilty for waking up.

“Nona please shower quickly and come with us makeup room, said one of the WO.

Jean immediately rushed to take a shower and then brought a dressing room.

“Yes, you stayed up all night?”, the panic reaction of a fairy after seeing Jean's eye bags.

“I'm sorry”.Jean could only smile, because she remembered she had only fallen asleep at about three and a half hours a night, and fell asleep while Enver was still drinking Jean's blood.

Jean looked at the large glass decorated with lights that shot towards her, the people behind her who were busy going around preparing for the party. ‘Ah yes, it turns out that this is real, my wedding day with Enver’, that's how Jean's mind felt that atmosphere.

“When it was time to wear the dress”, a woman was standing near the door of the dressing room.

“Let me alone”, Pinta Jean.

“But it will be rather difficult to wear it alone”, the person replied.

“Then, Sister Siska, please help me”, Jean looked at Siska and another man at the mansion who had been following Jean ever since Jean left her room.

Sunlight was already flat shining on every corner of the city, inside the spacious building many guests had come. Jean peeked out from the corner of the stage. Feeling a nervous thump that he had not planned before.

“Do not be nervous, although there are many important people who come, but you are the main character today”. A female WO who accompanied Jean gave her encouragement.

From the beginning, Jean didn't even know how important people were at her wedding. She was only nervous because Enver was already standing on stage to make a marriage pact. Jean sees her uncle standing next to Enver as Regent Jean. Jean also sees her aunt sitting side by side with a young man who seems to be Jean's already grown cousin, as well as a teenage girl.

Jean asks Enver to find his uncle about two weeks before the wedding day, as Jean hopes that his remaining close family will be present at her wedding. At first Jean didn't dare expect Enver to actually find them. But it turns out that from the beginning it seems like Enver already knows where his uncle's family is, how many times moved house even Enver seems to know.

“Jeesan!”, four of Jean's friends who stayed overnight in Jean's room, whispered to Jean.The four of them dressed in matching colors and approached Jean.

Jean exits the corner of the stage, walking among four friends to her uncle and Enver, who are waiting on the stage. Jean looked at her uncle who dared not look at Jean properly with tears welling up in her eyes. Jean tried to look at Enver, she saw Enver looking at him with teary eyes while smiling.

Looking very moving, Enver's expression was waiting for his bride to come out. But the haru scene even makes Jean continue to guess, whether the outburst of unusual emotions displayed by Enver is real from the heart, or just acting alone.

Jean found it unusual, as it was the first time Jean had seen such an expression of Enver's emotions. During this time, Jean only often saw Enver's expression that held back angry emotions or even no expression at all.

Jean then stared at the guests, filled with faces she had seen on her phone, politicians, actors, artists, or the famous businessman Jean never saw in real life.

‘Is it because of those people?, people related to the sustainability of the Valera company. So Enver took pains to act in such a way as to impress a good image.

But even so Jean smiled while bowed, the overflowing feeling of happiness was hard to endure. Because that day, she'll be Enver's wife, the man she loves so much.

The wedding ceremony was lively, laughter and haru enveloped the atmosphere inside the wedding building. Her uncle hugs Jean while apologizing, and the fact that her real aunt doesn't know that her husband dumped her just seems to think her husband apologized for leaving her to the orphanage, it makes Jean nostalgic for the difficult days of living with the family.

Uncle Jean introduces his teenage daughter.

Late afternoon, until nightfall the party continued. Guests come and go and congratulate Jean and Enver.

“If you are tired, you can go back to the room and rest”, Enver whispered to Jean. It made sense, because except for uncle Jean's friends and family, all the guests were Enver's guests.

The wedding will last for seven days and seven nights, Jean only present on the first day, and on the other day Jean only present in the afternoon for one hour only. Besides being tired, actually except from morning until noon on the first day, rather than feeling like a wedding party, the party felt more like a business and political meeting ground.

Jean looked at Enver in wonder on the last day of the party, that afternoon Jean accompanied Enver who greeted several guests. Enver's face, which always looks pale, makes Jean unable to see the tiredness of Enver's face. Enver is always present at the party every day from day to night.

But in the midst of Jean's daydream staring at Enver, Jean saw Enver's expression suddenly turn wry, he looked like he was annoyed to see someone. Jean subconsciously looked at Enver's view.

“I don't think I invited you”, Enver spoke to a middle-aged woman and a young man who looked very similar to Enver.

“I thought your mother and brother didn't need an invitation to come to your wedding”, she walked over to Jean and Enver. One of the bodyguards in charge of guarding at every corner, seen bending his head towards Enver, the bodyguard walked a little run after Enver's mother and brother. Enver moved his hand as if asking the bodyguard to go back into place.

“Oh my son.!”, Enver's mother who was about to hug Jean was stopped when Enver pulled Jean to the back of his body.

“Do not mind, please enjoy the party, there are many people waiting in line to say hello behind you”, Enver spoke in a flat tone.

Jean sees Enver's mother smiling at him peering out from behind Enver's back. Then the man who seemed to be Enver's brother bowed to greet Jean and Enver. The two of them then went off to blend in with the invited guests. Enver's hand shook holding Jean's wrist tightly.

Jean sees Enver calling Siska through a bodyguard. After a while Siska came with Angel and about five big bodyguards.

“Rest in the room, I'll pick you up to go home to the mansion later tonight”, Enver took off his clutches from Jean's wrists.

Jean, escorted by many, was too conspicuous not to be noticed by all the guests that afternoon. Jean walks in the midst of the crush of Siska and Angel who walk in tandem with less than a inch.

Compared to the usual uncomfortable protests, Jean complied only because she felt the strange atmosphere of Enver after her mother and brother came.

From that afternoon, instead of thinking that the reason Enver didn't bring Jean together with his family was because Jean wasn't very important to Enver, Jean thought that there might be an internal problem between Enver and his family, so Enver doesn't want to deal with his family.

‘Wait, is it possible that the Valera family is fighting over my blood?. But since Enver was stingy sharing so he locked me away all this time, so that his other family couldn't get close to me?’, Jean's thoughts made a narrative that made his head shake in wonder.
