TerLove (Love After Wedding)

Before wedding.

Cantika put on a ketus face. His hand is still crossed in his chest. His gaze was deliberately diverted from the man sitting before him. While Anas lowered his head, avoiding the gaze on the beautiful creature full of allure.

"Sorry, why are you willing to marry me?" ask Anas.

"Suppose this is good luck to you. No need to know why."

"But are you forced? I don't want any inconvenience between us."

"Ribet terribly, which obviously I want to marry you Lo. Point!"

"Recuredly ? I'm just an ordinary man. Maybe you won't get used to living hard later."

"Hehhhhh, whatever your life is. I'm just asking for one thing, after we get married, take me out of this house. That's all!" sewots.

"Alright, I did plan on it that way."

Cantika rolled her eyes with a careless puff. This is a formal guy! His style is also tacky. Can't papi find a cooler guy?

"Heyyy, what was Lo's name? Age, how old is Lo?"

"Anas Malik, 35 years old."

Cantika was wide-eyed, "What ? It turned out to be om-om, bewokan pantes. I'm only 22 years old. Means our age is much, different.eleven years."

Anas chuckled, "Not eleven, we are thirteen."

Cantika pursed her lips, "Rerahhhhh."

"Sorry, do you often wander everyday with an open appearance like this?"

"It doesn't have the same business as you." Tartly.

"Well, for now I won't interfere. I'll ask you one more time. Are you sure you want to marry me? It's a big decision, not a joke. It's about our future."

"Lo senile ? I told you I agreed to get married, so you can take me out of this house!" kinda scream.

Anas mangosteen, "Good. Do you know why I'm willing to marry you ?"

"Don't care." But he was actually curious.

Anas smiled, "You were present in my dream for several times. Maybe that's a hint of my prayers and worries." But of course it was only spoken in his heart.

"If so I won't tell you why."

"Whatever, Om!" Just saying it's hard. But I was alone, who said I didn't care. Ahhh, whatever!

"Can't you call me Om? I'm not that old."

"What do you want to call ?" smiling with compulsion.

"Call me Mas !"

"Entar, I was thinking !" move from his seat.

"Wait a minute, actually I still want to talk a lot."

"Otherwise, Om?"

"I can only give you a makeshift dowry. Honestly, I haven't been able to give you anything as fancy as your father gave you." Down shy.

Cantika approached her, "Gue doesn't care, Om. See you at the peraminan, husband-to-be....." Cup,*c*p the man's cheek then passed. Heyyy, I'm crazy, huh?! Why do I have to**m that guy?

Anas collapsed, suddenly he had difficulty breathing. Just this time her cheeks touched the sweet lips of a girl. It feels so weird! Why is he so brave as to v**mu?

Shortly afterwards, Mr. Permana appeared and sat down before Anas. "Anas, what have you been talking about? Is my daughter being nice to you? Nas....Anas!"

"Ah, what's wrong sir?"

"Why daydream? What were you guys talking about?" smilingly.

"Just have a light conversation, sir. Emmm, sorry. I actually wanted to say if it was possible for the dowry and delivery, I would only bring potluck. Do you mind?"

"Of course not. You're willing to marry my daughter alone, that's more than enough. I just ask, guide and happy Cantika. That's all!"

"Inshaa Allah, I will seek to carry out this commission."

***

As before, Mira was waiting on the porch when Anas just came home. The man sat next to him.

"Mas, from Mr Permana's house again?"

"Yes, there's something important I need to take care of."

"There's something I want to say, but.mas don't get mad or laugh at me!" down shy.

"What are you talking about?"

"I....I'm actually...emmm, I forgot?!" smirks. Shame, not forgetting!

"Mir, I'm getting married."

"Mas, kidding me?! I know that Mas doesn't have a girlfriend."

"I'm serious, in two weeks I'm getting married to Mr. Anas' daughter."

Mira gawked, unable to say anything. Why did this news come when he wanted to express his feelings? If only he knew, he might have ventured to tell Anas that he liked her.

"This plan was indeed sudden even though I thought about it carefully. I don't know, maybe this is what's called a mate."

Mira was teary-eyed but she was downcast, desperately trying to talk. "Mas, this is good news. May everything be good and happy. I...pamit." Get out of his seat and immediately walk away.

"Aamiin, thank you. Don't want to drink first?" kinda scream.

"It doesn't matter, Mas. Assalamualaikum..."

"Goddessalam..." Why is the response so? Did I speak wrong? Maybe he has a problem at home.

Anas can catch something strange from his friend's attitude. But he did not think at all that the girl had any more feelings for him.

As for Mira, she half ran home and entered her room. Crying on the bed. Why was his love rejected even before he spoke? Is Anas not his soul mate?

***

A week before the wedding.

That afternoon Cantika and her friends were hanging out in a cafe. Chuckle with their chats which are mostly unprofessional.

"Lo really want to marry the same boy Papi Lo's choice ?"

"Cantika, you're canceling that stupid plan ! Marriage is a terrible thing. You can't be free to walk, hang out or play."

"Therefore, you're ready to be a housewife. Pake negligee, busy in the kitchen and kuel. Ihhhh, that's mostly like that. Girls on being ugly after marriage."

"Mending a second thought, mumpung not too late !"

Various whispers of demons sprang up filling Cantika's mind. But she will still marry the man her father chose so that she can soon be free from the crowded house.

"You guys, I'll keep it this way even though I'm married! No one can set. I just ran over, especially just my husband !"

"Emmm, ok we'll take a look!" One of his friends commented. They laughed out loud, continuing to tease Cantika.

Suddenly a man appeared closer to the girl's assembly table. Grasping Cantika's arm until the girl stood up in anger.

"Ngapain Lo nyamperin me ? Lepasin !" revolted.

The man did not want to let go of his grasp. "Well, I'm afraid you're getting married. Are you sure? I know that you still love me. Is this a way of revenge because I was on the road with Eca?"

"Peter, don't be spicy! This marriage has nothing to do with you. So you better not interfere!" sneer smile.

"Well, I'll propose to you as soon as possible. I don't want you to have another man!" holding both shoulders.

Cantika takes off Peter's naughty hands. "Hello, are you crazy? I'm getting married in a week, don't bother doing anything weird! I'm not interested in guys like Lo."

Peter's getting sour. It was truly an insult to her. In front of many people, especially the girls, Cantika had already blown her pride to the lowest degree.

"Ok, marry me ! But I'm sure you won't be happy. No man is better than me." Pass away.

All the girls laughed out loud at the man's humiliating attitude. Even Cantika was so content to watch her ex-lover get angry. He was happy because it turned out that this wedding plan had indirectly disturbed Peter. No need to bother with revenge anymore.
