Pride of Love

Wedding Day

Andra and Amel's wedding day arrives. The ceremony will be held at Firmanto's residence. As requested by Andra, the wedding was held very simply. Only close relatives and some relatives were invited. Decorations of flower arrangements and janur are also installed in the house, although simple but everything still looks very beautiful.

A car decorated with flowers and ribbons entered Firmanto's residence. Andra got out of the car wearing a light blue shirt and a cream wedding suit. Although simple but his good looks still emanated when wearing the wedding dress.

Meanwhile in Amelia's room, the make up artist had finished dressing her up. The white kebaya she wears looks harmonious with her hair bun decorated with jasmine flowers. Natural makeup polish makes Amel's face look shining and look very sweet. Amel sat in a chair in front of a large mirror looking at him. Mayra stood next to him and unceasingly praised the beauty of her best friend.

"Mel..lo swearing very pretty wear wedding clothes like this" he said while tidying flowers in Amel's hair.

Amel was silent, his eyes began to look glassy, a look of sadness now appeared on his beautiful face.

"It's not the kind of marriage that I wanted May to have, from childhood I dreamed of becoming a Cinderella on my wedding day. Beautiful dresses, magnificent altars, lavish weddings, all live May's dream..!" Now tears began to pour down her cheeks.

"Mel.. elo don't be sad like this... smile dong..!! come on it's your happy day.and who says you're not a cinderella?! Mel.. you are very lucky to be married to a prince. All women must envy you Mel. including me..!" Mayra tried to comfort her best friend.

The knock on the door sounded at that moment. Word came in and approached Amel and Mayra.

"Darling..are you ready? Andra's here, let's spit it down, the ceremony's about to start!" Firman grabbed his daughter's hand but Amel still silently did not want to get up from his seat.

"Let's go, baby. Everyone is waiting for you!" Word lifted Amel's bowed chin gloomily with two fingers.

"Pa... Why does it have to be this fast? I'm not ready yet I still want to be papa here" said Amel with a sad look.

"Don't say so dear.You're still papa's favorite daughter" Word still persuades.

With a face that is still moody Amel went down to the wedding venue will be in the title. Penghulu and several witnesses were already preparing to wait for Amel. Amel sat next to Andra, who was already sitting there. At first glance Amel looked at Andra's face, the face was flat, not seen the look of happiness like a couple who will marry in general.

The wedding went well.

"Andra. papa leave the responsibility of looking after your daughter to you now. Please take care of him like you've been looking after him all this time." Firman hugged Andra giving all her blessings.

"Good pa.. I promise I'll run everything responsibly, I'll keep trying to make Amel happy." Andra also had to get used to calling papa to the Word from then on.

Amel's sobs broke when he had to leave the house.

Andra took Amel by the hand and helped him get into the car that would take him to Hadiwiguna residence. During the trip they both did not talk much, they were more silent and very awkward even though they had officially become a married couple.

Arriving at the residence of Hadiwiguna, Andra immediately brought Amel to his room. The room was not decorated like a bridal room, there were only a few flower vases installed on the table. Andra's room was not as large as Amel's room in his papa's house, but the arrangement of the room was quite comfortable so that Amel did not complain anything about it.

Amel sat in a chair in front of the dresser mirror while removing the decoration in his hair and Andra began to approach him to invite him to talk and melt the atmosphere that was so awkward between them.

"Mel.sorry me. I know this is not what you want it to be. and I am also in the same position as you are today." Andra touched Amel's shoulder while looking at the woman who is now his wife through her reflection in the mirror.

Amel got up from his seat, rejected Andra's hand and looked at her with a look of disappointment. "Yes...this is all your fault...!! You're the one who got me stuck in this marriage I never wanted!!" Amel spoke loudly while pointing his index finger at Andra's face. Tears began to pour from both of his eyeballs a sign of the overflow of emotions that he could not bear anymore. Andra just kept quiet not responding to Amel's anger. He breathed slowly and stepped away from Amel.

"Then.... I must be feeling good now Mel? You are my wife now." Andra kept trying to speak calmly.

"Get out of here....! I don't want to see you.., stay away from me! I hate you Andra!!" Amel's voice was rising.

"Well, I'll go out. I give you a chance to calm down first, after this we'll talk again!" Andra then stepped out of the room. With a slow step Andra went into her father's room. Andra grabbed a photo of her late father and rubbed it quietly.

"Father.and now Andra has married Amel at Father's request. Andra is sure that Father must want the best for Andra, now please lead Andra through all of this so that Andra does not miss the path Yah.." Andra arrived to feel a very longing for her father. He held a picture of his father.

Andra remained in the room until she unknowingly fell asleep in her father's bed.

The next day Andra woke up and immediately prepared to leave for the office. He came out of his father's room and went to the dinner table for breakfast.

"Bi Nur, Amel hasn't woken up yet?" Andra asked Nur who was still in the kitchen.

"Bibi's dad hasn't seen Non Amel come out of Den's room, it looks like he's still sleeping." Nur realized that his young master did not sleep in the room with his wife last night.

"What's wrong Bi. After all since my father started to get sick I rarely go to the office. a lot to do" Andra sipped a glass of juice that had just been served by Nur.

"I go first Bi. later if Amel wakes up please serve him and know all about this house. It's her first day here, a lot of things that Auntie has to point to her!" Andra grabbed her laptop bag and left for the office.

Amel had just opened his eyes, the sunlight had already entered the room through the gap of Andra's room window that was indeed pointing towards the morning sun. Amel squinted his eyes which still felt heavy.

"I fell asleep apparently. Last night I couldn't sleep at all" he thought. He slowly got out of bed and headed to the window of the room. The curtains from last night were tightly closed. The window of the room leads to the balcony area and from there is a very spacious and beautiful Hadiwiguna home page. The chirping of birds and the green color of the leaves arranged nicely in the garden in front of the house made the atmosphere of the morning very soothing for him.

The knock on the door blew away his moment of daydream.

"Non Amel... are you awake?" A voice appeared from behind the door as soon as Amel opened it.

"Non I Nur. Just call Bibi Nur, I'm a waiter here. If Non need what Non call me yes."

"I'm going to take a bath Bi..., ohya Andra where's Bi?" Although not too concerned Amel still asked the whereabouts of the man who had become her husband.

"Den Andra has left for Non's office.he said many important things to do in the office." Nur answered honestly.

"Oh. Yes Bi, I want to take a shower now, I'll be down soon." He answered, closing the door to the room again.

Amel came out of his room. His gaze swept over every corner of the house. The house is also quite large with a minimalist classic design that is very elegant even though it is not a new house but looks still very clean and well maintained. For a moment Amel went around in the area of the house, a house that was still very foreign to him.

"Non Amel wants Auntie to have breakfast?" Nur greeted him as he walked into the dining room.

"Iya Bi. please make hot lemon tea yes" Amel sat down and Nur rushed to make tea for him.

"So quiet, huh Bi? Which other waiter? Is it just Bi Nur I saw from yesterday?" Amel asked again.

"Auntie is alone here Non, same Kang Usman driver of the late Mr. Joddy.

"A house this big a waiter's only one Bi??" Amel wonder.

"Yes Non-Aibi is common. There used to be some people who work here, but already on the exit and there is also a pulled OB in the office of Tuan" Nur presented some pieces of bread to his new mistress.

******

On the 25th floor of the Prima Go Building, Andra who had arrived at his office was immediately busy with some work that he had left.

"Andra... Have you been to work?" Word went straight into Andra's room when she found out her daughter-in-law was coming to work the first day after marriage.

"Yes pa...many things I have to do" Andra answered quietly while staying busy on her laptop screen.

"How's email?" Firman approached Andra and sat in the front seat of his desk.

"Well pa" Andra answered briefly.

Seeing Andra's attitude, Firman can understand that between Andra and her daughter has not been established closeness despite being married.

"Ehmm. well then finish your work quickly.and then hurry home, you must remember now there is a wife who is waiting for you at home." He continued while stepping out of Andra's office space.

A few days passed and Andra and Amel remained cold and there was not much communication between them. Andra prefers to spend time in the office taking care of two companies that have been her responsibility so far. While Amel only thought about his own pleasure with his friends.

Every night Andra slept in her late father's room on the 1st floor while Amel slept in his room on the 2nd floor.

The Word also realized the disharmony of the marriage of Andra and Amel. As the only parent for them, it was her responsibility to improve the relationship and she began to think of various ways that the marriage of Andra and Amel could be a beautiful relationship.
