Substitute 2
Mispronounced
2 Weeks passed and it was time for Aldi and Keasa to get married. All the families, the forefathers and the witnesses had gathered, Aldi had been sitting sweetly beside Keasa, a very simple appearance of white kebaya with matching hijab, a very simple appearance,today's event only invites large families and some business partners and colleagues both.
Ijab kabul is experiencing problems because it has been twice Aldi misnamed, again the name he called was his late wife, Keana. It felt like keasa left the death table but he did not until the heart did, and for the third time then the name keasa spoken, after the witnesses said it was legitimate and Penghulu prayed for both,congratulating the two brides was also held.
Aldi's face in no way shows happiness, which there is only a cold face that provokes speculation that Aldi was forced to do so, despite the fact that it is so. Keasa could still smile even though his heart was screaming, Aldi's attitude seemed to describe the household life he would live.
"Aldi, you must be sure you are a responsible man and can make him happy, he said,keasa is a very jolly child once papih saw him sad then papih will be sad" said Kenan entrusted his eldest daughter to Kevan.
"And you brother, I hope you will be a good wife and mother to Aldi and Maika, waste your childish attitude, now you are a wife and mother" said Larissa advising her daughter
"This is Allah pih, Aldi will remember the message of papih, pray we can live this household well" said Aldi
"Surely my son, weepih and mamih will always pray for you" said the two
"Mamih will always be my mamih right, because after all I am still a little princess mamih and papih" said keasa with teary eyes
"Yes dong, ah don't be a crybaby like that shame the same guest and also your husband" said Larisa.
...
At 12 noon the event finished in the title, all the family rested including keasa and Aldi. Both are already in the room keasa, spacious room with sky blue paint there are many books and also photos belonging to keasa from small to adult, there is also a photo Keana, there is also a photo of Keana,it just made Aldi remembered his late wife, like being caught cheating on a photo of Keana leading to Aldi's face.
Keasa realized that, until Aldi walked towards the picture frame Keana and Keasa, they were like twins but not identical, long Aldi looked at the photo Keana up to the time he had returned from the bathroom to clean himself.
"Mas, until when are you going to look at the photo, aren't you hot and clean?" tanya Keasa rebuked Aldi who was still focusing on the face in the photo, whether he saw Keana or keasa, but it felt Keasa could not be the focus of Aldi.
"hhhhh, yes I will take a bath" said Aldi briefly
Aldi also took a towel and clothes in his suitcase, he will immediately change clothes in the bathroom. After Aldi entered the bathroom, now it's keasa's turn to hold the frame of the second photo.
"So, whether I can live my brother's will to the end, Am Aldi is too loving my brother I'm not sure he can do the same to me, I'm only a substitute for Aldi's mas" the words that made him shed tears.
When he was busy with his daydream, Aldi was out of the bathroom, his face looked fresher. Aldi sat on the edge of the bed while occasionally checking his hape, to open his voice to make sure something.
Aldi looked towards the keasa who was bowing his head, waiting for an answer from Aldi.
"We will not do that, we can share a bed like a husband and wife in general, just that I will not do the usual activities of a newlywed or a husband and wife,we behave as usual, and undergo activities as before" said Aldi
Keasa smiled wryly at Aldi's words, he did not think something like this would happen, it was still clearly illustrated that he wanted to be with a man who loved him, he did not expect that, that will provide warmth at all times as well as protection. His desire is now mere wishful thinking, destiny leads to his present situation.
**
After dinner all the family reunited, Kevan will convey something to his extended family.
"Mas, we've gathered, what do you want to say?" ask Kenan to his brother
"Hmmh well, I just want to express my gratitude to all of you for trying to fulfill my daughter's will. For Aldi and keasa I hope you are serious in living your household, not until you are forced to do it, you can learn to accept each other, 'Will be happy to see you take care of her daughter ..."
"And .. after passing through many considerations Fadila's extended family must gather in one place, this is what papah and mamah want when they are still there, he said,so from tomorrow my family and I will move to this house, the house left by our great-grandfather, hopefully this decision will be good news for our family" Kevan said
"Alhamdulillah, are you seriously going to move here?" asked Kenan who still does not believe because when there was Keana, Kenan was very diligent in persuading Kevan to return to the big house left by his uncle.
"True Ken, the mas don't want to drag on in grief and want a crowded atmosphere, he said,let the house be a memory for me and later if Keanu is married I want that child to fill my house"
"Alhamdulillah, good decision mas, I am very happy to hear it, finally you want to stay with me here" said Kenan who immediately embraced Kevan as well as Kirana and Larisa.
Keanu and Keysa have both grown up and are currently studying at the final level. Keysa chose to become a doctor and Keanu preferred to be a businessman, both of whom were not wrong in making choices because both jobs were like ingrained in the Fadila family.
After the family gathering is over they return to their respective rooms, because the sense of class they still feel. The little baby Maika now sleeps with Kevan and Kirana while Aldi and Keasa return to her room after previously not allowed to bring Maika, on the grounds of the wedding night when there is nothing they will do.
"Kee, do you want me to take you out?" aldi asked as the two laid their bodies on the bed.
