The look of Arlan and Naura's eyes met, Naura's face looked reddened as it held back her anger. He doesn't know what Papa and his mother want to match him up with Arlan without telling him first.
Seeing Naura's face flushed reddeningly made Arlan smile with a grin.
"Yes, we will match you both, the date of your marriage has also been determined," said Ratna.
Naura's entire body felt limp hearing what Ratna said. Clearly Naura felt weak because Papa and Mama had arranged their wedding date when they were teenagers.
"Ma, but I'm a minor, we're still in school how can we get married?" ask Naura.
"It's okay everything has been arranged so you two take it easy" Bara said.
"But still—"
"I'll take good care of Naura Auntie, Om!" arlan's firmness made Naura stare intently at Arlan.
"What's? Take good care of me? You are the one I want to avoid the most, the evil demon!" inner Naura.
It looks Bara and Intan nods in response to Arlan's words.
"I don't want to get married, Mom! I still want to go to high school and also determine what I want, Mama and Papa can not casually say they want to marry me," said Naura annoyed.
Everyone who was there stared at Naura. It is true what Naura said that girls his age are supposed to study and school today is not married even to people he really does not want.
"We will not hinder your dreams, especially if you are still in school, we will support you to go to a higher level again" Ratna said.
"Tante and his family promise not to prohibit you from doing anything, you two have been betrothed since childhood so you can not refuse an arranged marriage" Ratna said again.
Naura fell silent and looked at Papa and her mother. Naura had no idea that the son of Ratna and Vishnu was Arlan. He did know Ratna and Vishnu because both are friends of Papa and Mama.
"Naura went to the toilet first" Naura said to everyone.
Seeing Naura walk to the back makes Arlan come to the back following Naura. He believes Naura will not go to the toilet and Arlan's guess is correct at this time Naura walks to the back door and sits on the sofa. His face was still very upset.
At this time Naura is very angry especially when she knows that Arlan will be her husband. Not a bit of it never crossed his mind to marry Arlan, let alone marry to have feelings for Arlan.
"Lo don't like marriage with me?" asked Arlan who was suddenly behind Naura made Naura stare intently at Arlan.
"Well whenever I won't!" annoyed Naura with a sharp look but Arlan actually laughed out loud in front of Naura making Naura confused.
"Well, what about laughing? You think this is all funny?" asked Naura annoyed.
"Lo think I'd marry you too? In school there are many beautiful and sexy girls who want to be like me, not like you who are substandard!" arlan taunted.
Naura clenched her hand as Arlan licked herself but at this moment Naura could only harbor her anger. He was also lazy to argue with Arlan as usual.
"If you don't want to marry me why didn't you refuse this matchmaking, you're happy, 'would you enslave me?" ask Naura.
"Even though I don't like your marriage will still take place Naura, you think both of our parents didn't think about all this carefully?" arlan's question made Naura speechless.
Naura confirmed what Arlan had said. Both of their parents would not have possibly not thought about all this carefully but still for Naura the marriage was outrageous let alone married to Arlan.
"Gue there's one way we can calm down without canceling this wedding" Arlan said.
"What way?" ask Naura.
"We're going to stay married the way our parents want us to be but we're getting married on paper, how?" ask Arlan.
"Well, we marry a contract with a certain agreement, you can add whatever you want as well as me, what do you think?" asked Arlan while looking at Naura who was thinking.
Naura looked at Arlan with a lookout, afraid that Arlan planned something on her but the contract marriage offer was quite attractive to Naura moreover he could add an important point so that Arlan could not bother her anymore.
"For a long time he thought," Arlan said, making Naura look at Arlan sharply.
"Well, I agree" said Naura.
Seeing Naura agree made Arlan smile with satisfaction. I don't know what the smile Arlan showed Naura didn't know at all.
"If so let's go back to the dining table, everyone is waiting for us" said Arlan.
Naura and Arlan walked towards the dining table and sure enough their parents looked worried at the two of them.
"Where are you two going? He said he was going to the toilet for a long time?" ask Intan.
"Sorry Ma" said Naura.
"Yes now we eat first, we will continue the delayed conversation" said Intan.
They all decided to have dinner together before going into further detail about Naura and Arlan's arranged marriage plan.
After finishing their meal, they returned to discuss Arlan and Naura's arranged marriage and the wedding plan that would be held the day after. Naura's face seemed less excited even though she and Arlan had already decided to marry contracts.
***
The waiting day has arrived, seen in the room Naura wearing white kebaya with natural makeup because her marriage and Arlan will last a few minutes more.
With a fairly lethargic face Naura stared at the reflection of her reflection in front of the mirror.
"Why should I marry someone I want to avoid?"
"Naura," called Intan while opening the room door. He was smiling warmly in front of Naura.
"Honey, the forerunner is here, let's get out!" pinta Intan held Naura's hand and walked out of the room.
Outside of the hitherto arrived and not many people had witnessed their marriage, only a few people could be counted on the fingers.
Naura sits next to Arlan and the prince starts to marry the two of them.
"Arlan Atmaja I marry you to Naura Ayu with 50 grams of gold paid in cash!"
"I accept Naura Ayu's marriage with the mascawin in cash!"
"Why the witnesses? Right?"
"Well!!"
Now that Naura and Arlan are officially a couple, Arlan looks at the face of Naura who looks at her with sadness while Naura's parents or Arlan's parents look very happy to see their two children married.
Arlan still stared fixedly at Naura's face and kissed Naura's forehead in front of all the witnesses.
