Sudden Love

Sudden Love
Part 9's



"Sorry, Honey! I made you wait a long time." Zafran stared softly, then thrust a bottle of cold drink at me.


Zafran turned to look at the man next to me, then stepped towards him. For a moment two pairs of eyes met each other, the flat faces of the two created stiffness, no matter what they had in mind. Then a cold smile was etched on Zafran's face.


"Thank you for accompanying my fiance .. excuse me."


Zafran grabbed my hand and held it.


"Come, we're home!"


We left that place, but I remembered Quensha. The boy must have been disappointed to have left without saying goodbye. I could only look at him who was playing.


Zafran's face that had not changed was still like that, cold and full of snow. Without speaking, he opened the car door for me.


"You jealous?"


"How could I not be jealous if you looked at him like that."


"Stare at it like that" I asked in wonder.


He was silent for a moment.


"Aah .. that's it. Maybe because I'm afraid of losing you, it's overkill." He sighed, then looked at me with a smile. "I'm sorry, I almost didn't believe you." The snow on his face began to melt.


I nodded and returned his smile. This is what is real and I want to keep it.

Today is Sofia's wedding. Starting from dawn everyone was busy, because the marriage contract was nine in the morning. After that, the party was over.


I'm not so complicated with myself. For the wedding ceremony, just wear a long dress with pasmina and thin makeup polish. After feeling neat I went to the bridal room, wanted to bother the bride for the last time, before she was carried by her husband.


Sofia's appearance is very beautiful, simple but elegant. Using a long white kebaya and matching pasmina, the covered head was adorned with an inconspicuous crown.


"Where?" my many.


"What?" Sofia frowned.


"It feels like a bride."


"Be happy for sure, be with loved ones." Face radiant.


A loved one. I repeat Sofia's words, but only my heart can hear them. Suddenly this heart is broken.


"Sister, why? Kok, even dumbass."


"Neverything."


Why struggling? I'm sure that love will be there for Zafran. If God wants me with him, he will ask God to let that love grow.


"That's right, big brother's dumb again."


"Cieee .. who wants to follow."


"Doain," I said.

The wedding ceremony is over, ijab kabul is running smoothly. Everyone prayed for the happiness of the bride and groom, one by one the extended family gave congratulations and encouragement.


The day is getting hotter, the distance of the sun is almost close to the crown. The bride and groom have changed clothes, this time wearing a wedding dress from West Java because the groom is from there. While large families, for men use batik while women use brocade clothes with the same pattern.


Guests come to change. The nuclear family welcomed them with joy. I who had been busy chatting with several families, suddenly fixated on a dashing figure who stepped towards the guarantee, greeted the two brides, then he spoke to his father Sofia, who was a young woman, involuntarily a smile poked in my iras.


"Somewhere," whispered Anggi, nudging my arm. It turned out that he realized my attitude just now.


"Ssttt ... follow brother!" I pulled his arm somewhere.


"What's up, brother?"


"Nobody knows what you saw just now."


"See what?"


"Don't be innocent, you want trouble later?"


"Yes .. yes."


"Good."

The party went well. The day is getting late. A couple of brides looked tired, and so did I.


"Let me anterin you go home, it looks like you're exhausted."


"You haven't come home yet?"


"Waiting for you."


Zafran drove me home. He who had come was already a bit late in the afternoon, asked Papa to stay there until the event was over. Papa wants to introduce the other family as my candidate.


The quiet pace of Zafran makes me comfortable plus the cool air conditioning. Drowsiness began to attack, not strong to hold it I fell asleep.


The soft voice and warm feeling on my cheeks woke me up, I reluctantly forced these eyes open. Zafran's face was so close, his gaze was heart-piercing.


"What do you want?"
