The Bond of Our Love

CHAPTER 133 - Wedding Invitation

Zahra looked at the two people who were pointed at by Chika with brows linked. She was confused as to why Chika referred to them as her parents? Though as a person who had known the girl for a long time, he knew very well how the child's life.

His mother died of illness. His father married again because he wanted a son. Who are the two people in front of him right now?

"They are Chika's adoptive parents. The two of them took care of him after the tragedy. And they have also adopted Chika as their daughter" As if understanding what makes his wife feel confused, Rahul answers the question that rages on Zahra's mind.

"really?" Zahra asked with her cherry.

"of course. Even because it's Chika, I can get information about you. If you are Zahra, not Shreya. Because Chika told me everything"

"Meet Mom, I'm Nilam, Mama Chika" Ms. Nilam reached out her hand to Zahra with a friendly smile emanating on her face.

"I'm Zahra Ma'am. Nice to meet you" Zahra replied to the middle-aged woman's friendly smile.

"I also. Chika often tells about you. She really admired Mom. Oh yes this is my husband" Miss Nilam pointed at Mr. Ricky who was standing next to her.

"Greetings to Mom, I'm Ricky" Ricky reached out to Zahra.

"I'm Zahra. On behalf of Chika, I thank you very much for your kindness in helping and adopting her as a child. I already consider Chika like my own sister. I have always wanted to help him in terms of treatment. But I still can't do it because of economic factors"

While stroking Chika's head, Zahra said regretfully that she had not been able to do much to help Chika. She was moved because there was now an angelic hearted person, who helped and made the poor girl their daughter sincerely.

"Yes Ma'am, my wife and I are also very happy to have Chika. Because through him we can finally feel the feeling of having children, a place to pour out affection" said Mr. Ricky in a voice that sounded sincere.

"Oh yes, sister, can I not, look and hold the baby's grandpa? He must be really funny, right?" Chika asked Zahra expectantly.

"By dong dear. Dedek the baby must be very happy to see you too. Now he's with Oma and Opanya. Come there" Zahra replied in a soft voice, pointing at her two in-laws who were chatting with some invited guests who seemed to be vying to hold Chand.

With enthusiasm Chika nodded and ran towards the horde of Helmi and Lesti. Rahul and Zahra resume their conversation with Mr. Ricky and his wife. They kindly invited both guests to drink and enjoy the dishes.

A few hours later Dawn came as one of the invited guests. He stared at the place blankly. Either he felt jealous of the happiness of the woman he loved with Rahul who was celebrating their son's aqiqah joyfully, or something else was weighing on his mind.

Helmi and Lesti approach her with Rahul and Zahra.

"Alhamdulillah I'm fine Aunt. Sorry, I've been pretty busy lately. Sorry too, if I'm late" Dawn smiled stiffly.

"It's okay Bro, the show is also just about to start anyway" Rahul responded with a friendly smile. He could feel that Dawn looked uncomfortable in that place. Perhaps it was because the man still could not forget his feelings for Zahra, his wife.

Dawn smiled wryly. "Thank God then. Oh yea.... Zahra, I'm sorry, with what I did yesterday. I apologize for lying to you who are amnesiac, for confessing to me as your husband" Fajar looked at Zahra and spoke with shame and guilt for what had happened before between them.

"We forget everything. Let's just say it's just the past that doesn't need to be remembered anymore. I should thank you anyway. Thanks to you, Chand and I can be here. We can regroup. Until I will never forget your kindness to us"

Zahra replied awkwardly. She was still confused as to what to do with the man, after her memory returned and she knew that the man was not her husband. Although he could not deny that the man was already meritorious in his life and Chand.

"I just did what I had to do. And I'm so happy, seeing you guys together again like now. I hope.... Your families will never be separated again" Dawn said softly. His voice sounded sincere and sad.

"Aamiinu. Thank you" Zahra smiled nervously.

"Yes alike. Oh yes, for a moment" Dawn reached into her pants pocket and pulled out something that looked like an invitation letter, then thrust it at Lesti.

"What's this?" Lesti received the invitation letter with a furrowed eyebrow. "Marriage invitation? Dawn, are you getting married?" Lesti read the invitation card in surprise. Where in the letter is written the name of Fajar and his future wife who will soon have a wedding two weeks later.

"Yes Aunt. God willing, I'm getting married in two weeks. I wish.... Om, Auntie and all of you can attend. Yep.... Think of it as a redeemer because I can't invite you to my wedding with Shreya's late wife. So this time I'm inviting you as family members, not guests"

Dawn spoke in a bland tone. He doesn't seem happy to talk about his marriage. Like someone trying to cover up their sadness. And it continues to be noticed by Rahul, who felt surprised because he knew Dawn already had a future wife.

I don't know why he felt something was strange. For a month the man was invisible. And now he's coming with news of his wedding? Is it that fast he finds a woman who can make him move on from Zahra?

But yeah, that's none of his business. In fact, he was relieved that Dawn would have another wife and had forgotten about Zahra. Because he was also not willing if Fajar continued to glance at his wife with more feelings.

"Well! This is very exciting news! You take it easy, all of us are unlikely to miss it. But who is that lucky woman? How come you never told me, if you already have a future wife again?"

Helmi chimed in with joy, unaware of Fajar's nervous and misbehaved expression when mentioned about his future wife. Only Rahul seems to realize that. Her feelings say something happened to the man until he decided to get married.

But he hopes it's just his guess. And he also very much hopes that the marriage runs smoothly and sacred.
