Isabella stared intently at the woman who was her Papih choice. In the catch of her eyes, she saw the happy smile that rose on Grace's lips was a triumphant smile as it managed to conquer her Papih's heart. It is not easy for Isabella to accept Grace as Rizal's companion, let alone having a fight, and Grace to punch her cheek par.
Vito glanced at Isabella. There was no aura of happiness on the beautiful face of the woman. Vito considers the initial meeting between Grace and Isabella as not to be forgotten by Isabella.
" Rizal Gunawan bin Hardjanto Gunawan's brother, I marry you and I marry you to Ananda Grace Renata bint Darren Williams with two million one hundred twenty-two thousand twenty-three rupiahs and fifty precious metals gram paid in cash." Om Daniel who became the guardian of marriage opened the speech of ijab qobul.which was immediately replied firmly by Rizal with one breath.
" I accept the marriage and the marriage of Grace Renata bint Darren Williams with the bride in cash!".
" legitimately?"
" Usah ...!!" Rizal's men answered simultaneously.
A sigh of relief felt by everyone except Isabella who was still heavy to accept the decision Papihnya.
" Miss Grace is actually good, Bella. Trust me. It may just take some time for you and Miss Grace to get to know and familiarize yourself to have a good relationship between the two of you." Vito tried to advise Isabella.
Isabella did not respond to what Vito said. The woman turned her face away.
After the chanting of the ijab and the signing of the wedding documents were completed, everyone present gave their congratulations to Grace and Rizal.
" Grace, congratulations on your marriage. Om hope that with your marriage, you can grow up and get better." Om Daniel of course always hopes that Grace gets happiness and avoids the wrong association like when with Joe first. So she hopes Grace's marriage to Rizal can make Grace a better person. Moreover, previously he had told his assistant to look for information about who Rizal really was.
" Yes, Om. Thank you, Om, for coming and blessing our marriage." Grace hugged her father's sister.
" It's a pity that your father couldn't see your happiness on this happy day, Grace." Daniel rubs Grace's back.
" Yes, Om. Maybe if Papa were alive, Mama wouldn't be acting the way she is today" Grace lamented with her eyes condensing. It is undeniable that her little heart feels disappointed because her mother did not attend her wedding just because her chosen man was not in accordance with Agatha's wishes.
" Oh yeah, where's your mama Grace? He's not present?" Om Daniel only realized that there was no Agatha among the people who drove Grace to KUA. In fact, Agatha should have accompanied her daughter.
" Mama still hasn't approved of us, Om. Mama is still on her feet, wanting to marry me to the man of her choice. Just leave it, Om! Who knows, it will be Mama herself who will marry the man." chirped Grace by shaking hands in the air
Grace's words made Om Daniel chuckle, while Rizal only held back a smile in response.
" Does your mom still like young guys?" asked Om Daniel with a laugh and then glanced at Rizal. " It looks like your Mama's nature is down to you, Grace. The difference is the man you marry is much older." - Om Daniel.
" Rizal, I'm handing my niece over to you. Please take good care of him! Don't let you disappoint her let alone hurt her!" Om Daniel left Grace to Rizal and asked Rizal to take good care of Grace.
" I promise I will take good care of and protect Grace, Mr. Daniel." Rizal promises in front of Om Daniel that he will always look after and protect Grace.
" You must remember, Rizal! You also have a promise you must keep!" Om Daniel alluded to Rizal's promise to lead Darren's company, Papa of Grace.
Rizal glanced at Grace who also spontaneously glanced at him.
" Ready, Mr. Daniel. I will definitely keep my promise!" Rizal convinces Om Daniel if he is able to keep his promise.
" Lo, Om not attending the reception tonight?" Grace is sad because no member of her family will accompany her at dinner tonight to celebrate her wedding.
" Grace, you know for yourself how busy your Om is, right?" Om Daniel asked Grace's understanding in order to understand her busyness.
" Yes, Om. Grace also thanked me for taking the time to come here." Grace hugged her uncle's body spoiled like a child to her father.
" Oh this is your Papa's replacement, so Om must attend your wedding." Om Daniel stroked Grace's head.
Rizal notices Grace and Om Daniel's interaction. Behind Grace's dominant stubbornness, the woman still needs the figure of a Papa in her life.
After saying goodbye, Om Daniel also went first from the office of KUA. After that Rizal and Grace along with others also left KUA to Grace's house.
At Grace's house, Rizal's men gathered to enjoy the food and dishes that had been provided, while Isabella went home first because she had to teach at the Tutoring Institute.
" Boss sir, Boss mom, happy wedding. May her marriage last, be blessed and have many children. Aamin ..." Indra repeated his words to Rizal and Grace after previously congratulating him while in KUA. Indra even changed Grace's call to boss Ma'am.
" Yes, sir, Mrs Boss, pray for us to be quick to do it too." Jamal chimed in as he chuckled.
" The charm of the widower is more enchanting! You virgins just lost to Mr. Rizal who got a beautiful wife and is still young!" chirp Yuanita quipped the two comrades.
" Where will Mr Rizal and Mrs Rizal live? Here or at Mr Rizal's house?" ask Yuanita back.
" Where do you want to live?" So busy allowing a sudden wedding until Rizal did not have time to discuss where they would live after marriage.
Grace turned her head towards Rizal, she did not discuss about the residence they would occupy.
" I'm up to Papih" said Grace.
" Cieee, now the call is Papih." Indra doesn't seem good if she doesn't flirt with the newlyweds.
" Yes, dong! Being married should be her romantic calling! Yeah, right, Mom?" Yuanita also called Grace Mother.
For two hours they gathered. On the Maghrib's eve, they say goodbye because later tonight they will attend a dinner to celebrate Grace and Rizal's wedding at David Richard's hotel restaurant.
