SUPPOSE THAT...

PRAYER AND MARRIAGE II

"You're here ?" Kirana doesn't believe. Suddenly he was embarrassed by his own messy appearance, while Jonathan, as usual he always looks stylist.

"Don't see Kirana for long." Jonathan said as Kirana now sat in front of him.

"I made something." Kirana was about to leave. But Jonathan immediately held him.

"No, you don't have to bother" he said.

Kirana sat back with Jonathan's hand still holding her wrist. But he immediately let go when the woman looked uncomfortable.

Some time they just look at each other in the quiet living room with large windows of cononial models that shine the morning sun. Kirana repeatedly lowered her head and squeezed her fingers awkwardly.

"I don't know if it's the right time or not." Jonathan's two narrow eyes looked at him. "I know this is embarrassing. But.." Jonathan reached into his pants pocket.

Kirana was stunned as Jonathan opened the red velvet box. A beautifully carved gold ring he placed towards the table and pointed at it.

"This ring is still waiting for you to wear, Kirana" he said.

Kirana's eyes turned red and her lips trembled.

"Can we start it again ?" jonathan asked expectantly.

Kirana's tears are flowing. He looked at Jonathan very well. He hides himself to treat his heart wounds that have not yet dried up. Strengthening his sincerity in the incessant prayer he whispered to his lover who was now with the others.

And now unexpectedly, Jonathan comes to offer his faithful promise back.

"..Jon, I.." Kirana bowed while biting her lower lip.

It is not age that makes an adult. But a life that awakens the mind.

In less than two years. The spoiled and childish Kirana turned into a different figure. Keep smiling and a lot of laughter, but for those who pay attention will feel bland.

"Jon, I've hurt you.." Kirana's voice sounded "You can get more from me. I just.."

Kirana's sentence came to a halt as Jonthan tightened her clutches on Kirana's cold fingers.

"You know I don't have much time. I got here because I ran away secretly from my manager." Jonathan says.

They looked back at each other with Kirana's bright brown eyeballs shaking.

"You'll take this ring if you're willing." Jonathan said again.

Kirana. Is this what is meant by a match ? Want to go as far as anything is separated and try to stay away, then will you meet again ?

Kirana gulps. He saw a gold ring with a small calligraphic engraving on its circumference. Then his eyes turned to Jonathan.

"Dave, I wish I could really forget you. I hope Jon's not an escape. But one day, I can love her like she loves me as sincerely.."

Hesitating Kirana stuck out her right hand. He took the ring and put it on his ring finger. He smiled with a puffy face at Jonathan who was looking at him gratefully.

There is no perfect word for our painful love. And there is no choice but to make peace and accept.

Doesn't life have to go on ? We cannot give up just because of love. Because believe me, outside there are still many people who struggle desperately by carrying the burden of problems on their shoulders and they remain steadfast in living life.

...----------------...

The Delayed Marriage. The Returned Match. Miliader's Daughter Seizes The Actor's Heart. The Love Story of the Century. And several other titles that became hightlight in various media to enliven the marriage of Kirana Martahdianata and Jon Aoki.

A luxury wedding is three days in Jakarta and 3 days in Tokyo. The luxurious kebaya embroidered with gold thread adds beauty and gives another impression when Kirana wears it. Likewise Jonathan who looks different when wearing traditional Javanese clothes. The marriage of two countries with different cultures always gives a unique impression of its own.

"It's so pretty, honey.." Marisa glazed over looking at her princess.

Kirana's eyes water. She hugged her mother tightly.

"You should be happy, son." Marisa stroked Kirana's back in the bridal dress. "Forget it all and start a new life, okay ?" marisa's tears are flowing. Kirana nodded.

"Daddy." Kirana took off her mother's embrace and changed into her father's.

Kirana. He should be the happiest man there. But her tears kept flowing. Either haru or sad. A mixed feeling that made him tremble to step up. There is no choice, it is better to be loved than to continue to drown in sadness and worry those around who love him.

With her Dad and Mom on fire, Kirana wavers out of the room at one of the Marthadinata Family's hotels that has been sterilized for her marriage to Jonathan.

In one breath, the sacred promise of marriage is spoken.

"Our child will be born from the sacred bond of marriage, witnessed by angels and the Living One."

Kirana's chest tightened with tears as she recalled Dave's remarks to her a few years ago.

A warm hand grabbed and clasped his fingers beautifully ornamented by a golden nail art, in line with the kebaya he was wearing.

Kirana who looks beautiful with bridal makeup and siger typical Sundanese bride turned to Jonathan who sat beside her.

"My Wife.." Jonathan said with a smile.

Kirana was silent for a moment, then smiled and clasped Jonathan's hand back.

Several days news of Kirana and Jonathan's wedding is still on the television screen, even though the wedding party is over.

"Dave ?" Angela was shocked when she opened the door and Dave who was still wearing an office shirt with his jacket off immediately collapsed towards his wife.

"Sorry, Angela." Dave smiled and got up despite the staggering.

"You smell of alcohol." Angela closed her nose.

Dave smiled as he stroked Angela's cheek. "Yes, it was Mr. Bram who asked for a drink while discussing work." he walked towards his room while holding his dizzy head.

"You can reject it, right ?" Angela's tailing behind. "She is famous for drinking and having an affair outside. He can be a bad influence on our household." Angela tried to remind me.

"Yes, next time I will refuse to invite Mr. Bram." Dave said when they got to the room.

Angela looked at her Husband who was opening his work shirt with a look of misgivings. News of Kirana and Jonathan's wedding wara-wiri on Television and Angela is sure, Dave must have seen.

"Is it because of that lately Dave often comes home drunk ?" the question is in the heart "I'll prepare warm water." in the end Angela chose not to discuss and immediately went to prepare the bath needs of Dave who has been her husband for a year.

Dave looked at himself in the mirror. He looks more mature with his appearance now.

By marrying Angela, he gets all the. The secret of his birth is still stored, although all documents on behalf of Ansreas is that his biological father has been removed and changed to the status of an adopted child.

The shadow of Kirana's face wearing a kimono and coupled with Jonathan shadowed when she accidentally saw the news on television. Dave's forehead creased deeply, never imagining their first night.

Dave bowed while holding his chest. The feeling of unwillingness mixed with pain again tightened his heart that he was trying to freeze.

Suddenly he chuckles. "Don't I also sleep with Angela ?" he said in his heart. He's tickled with himself. On the swab his face was rough as his two eyes were back puffy.

...----------------...

One of the rooms in the hot spring in Kyoto City was beautifully decorated with many rose petals and small candle-shaped lights. The sensational aroma of flowers adds to the passion of the bride and groom who are sipping the sweetness of wedding honey.

It should have been a thrilling night for Kirana. But I don't know why he could be this calm when Jonathan kissed his soft lips and untied his yukata.

Kirana looked at Jonathan who was above her for a moment, before she closed her eyes and turned them all over.

"Goodbye to the love of my youth." Kirana said in her heart.
