Tarnished On The Bride's Night

What After This You Stay ....

“Where is your house?” alif asked when they reached the Dara housing complex.

Then the woman showed a minimalist house in front of which there were many people who were working to install an iron fence. This house is still in the finishing stage so it still looks a bit messy.

“Still yes, Lif,” Dara said shortly before the woman came down.

Alif just nodded without really wanting to turn his head. Though Dara was waiting for him to look at him briefly before finally going down and parting for a long time.

Dara should not have to wait for this trivial thing, but somehow it does not feel good to be treated in such a way.

“Alif!” dara was very angry.

“What?” Alif looked over in wonder.

“I want to go home.”

“Iya keep what's the problem? Go home. Do I need to take you to your doorstep?”

Dara thunts pissed, “Kok no yes, a human like you?”

“Yes, and you are the one who made it,” Alif said in his heart.

“I go home, Lif,” said Dara once again hoping Alif responded with a better attitude than before.

Aware his voice was too thin, Alif softened his tone, “If there is anything contact me.”

“If there's anything I must have contacted my husband, not someone else as distant as you.”

“I don't mean it. I'm just making small talk because I don't know how to behave the way you mean.”

Dara suddenly crispy. What Laif had just said as if implied something. Dara did not know whether this was so or just her feelings. The stuff he knew was mysterious. He was a difficult person to guess, his depth was difficult to dive into, and very good at hiding things.

Ah, but whatever it was—to know she never had any problems with this guy. The usual attitude Alif showed was indeed that. He was a strange, indifferent man and did not care much. He was very different from his brother Yudha.

After Dara went down to leave him, Alif immediately turned back the body of the car and left the place.

“Your house is a mess like this, why did you leave?” mother Ratna asked when Dara had just arrived at the door.

“Vita is coming home, Mom. So Dara had to meet him,” Dara replied while putting down her bag. He looked around, this living room was already much neater and more beautiful than before because it was just equipped with various facilities—as well as the installation of wallpapers that are charming and cool in the eye.

“Don't go-go first, yeah. Mother same father want to go home later no one takes care of food for your husband, for guests also.”

“Iya, Mum.”

When everyone was gone, Dara immediately cleaned the dirty floor of their former work. Her tired and uncomfortable body made her stand still, so it came to the attention of her husband who was secretly watching her at the time.

“Do not force if you are tired,” he said snatch the mop handle that Dara is holding.

Dara shook her head then took the thing back from the hands of her husband, “No, not tired at all, Mas Chan. I'm just not comfortable in—” almost Dara keceplosan to mention the complaint clearly. “My feet, yes—my feet because yesterday I was standing wearing heels all day.”

“Means you need my help to massage your legs, so?”

“Eh, no need,” reject Dara but do not care. The man took her up on the sofa, put his feet up on his own lap and did what he wanted.

Dara was treated so gently that she pulled her man closer. He then gave a brief kiss on his lips. “I love you Mas Chandra,” he said afterwards.

“Moreover me,” Chandra replied. “I love you more.”

“Each household ark will surely find a number of problems ...”

“It's for sure.”

“Whatever happens later, I hope Mas Candra will always be by my side,” said Dara hinting something at him. He just wanted to know how much Chandra loved him.

“Turns, I'm a husband. The biggest role in our family. I'm the one who will ask you to always be by my side, supporting me in every big decision I will take.”

“I love you for who you are, Mas Chandra. Not that you're handsome, well-established or you're still a bachelor. I hope Mas Chandra does too. Accept what I am.”

But Chandra still does not understand what Dara means. “If not accept what it is, surely I have married another richer, prettier girl hmm?” Chandra pinched Dara's little nose. “I love you, Ra. Is my wait for almost four years still not enough to prove that I do love you?”

Dara nodded. No matter how wide she explained, Chandra would never be able to understand what happened to her before she got to herself. Dara only hopes Chandra will not realize this if they do their first worship.

About virgins or not, Dara thinks only married men can feel it. As far as Dara is concerned, Chandra has never married any woman. So most likely, he will survive the matter. Dara convinced herself.

No one expected where a soul mate would come from. But if she recalls her encounter with Chandra was because of her parents.

At first, Dara refused. Even with his parents who freed him choose another path. The reason is simple, other than because Dara does not like the man she is betrothed to, she remembers there are still ideals that have not been conveyed.

But with no clarity of heart, Dara just live their relationship like flowing water, until one time Chandra actually approached him seriously. Dara guessed, Chandra had harbored feelings before her.

“Do you have a boyfriend?” ask Chandra at that time.

Dara shakes. He has no relationship with any man despite being close to a man. A friend who found him. Yes, that man is named Alif.

But because the packaging of the man was a playboy, making Dara unsure will be able to undergo a more serious relationship with him. After all, Alif also never said anything to him other than considering him an ordinary friend. He thought Alif would only play tricks on him like he did on other women.

“We can try to live it first. If indeed later there is still no match between us—we can stop,” said Chandra again staring expectantly. Highlight his gentle eyes visited her and made her sink into the man's sincerity.

Undeniably, Chandra also has an extraordinary charm. Unconsciously, the head nodded and smiled. “Yes, we will try it,” he replied then who took him to the next road despite having to wait a long time because Dara remained strong continue his education which was initially delayed due to cost.

But the unexpected comes on the day the wedding will take place. Alif came to him and said something that had made him turn over.

“I want to marry you,” he said out loud without any recognition.

Is he dreaming? Drunken up? Or maybe he just had a hard impact on the head so he suddenly had a slightly twisted behavior?

Dara who at that moment was surprised immediately replied with a jerking voice, “Married me? Did I not hear wrong?”

I don't know what Alif was thinking at the time. But Dara had seen the look on Alif's face turned strange.

“Don't joke, I'm getting married.”

Alif did not show his face again, he turned his face away and smiled obliquely. “Yes I was just kidding,” he said who then turned around and left him.

Isn't this kind of behavior some kind of crazy behavior?

At the next meetings, Alif did not say anything else so Dara thought that at that time Alif was really joking.
