The Charm of the Man with a Wife

Wedding Day

“Shen, if you do this all just to avenge your heartache as El, it will only hurt yourself and be of no use. You know, I was the first person to defy the weight of your marriage to Lucky. But, also free I forbid you, I can what if you already have your own decision. I heard my aunt tell you to leave, can I help you escape, Shen?” melva asked in a whisper, bringing her lips closer to Shena's ears. 

Shena ignored Melva's words, she was reluctant to leave the marriage that had even almost started, she did not want to be her father's ungodly child. The middle-aged man was highly respected by anyone. Shena did not want, because of her behavior that escaped from her own marriage, would be fatal and tarnish Bagaskara's good name. 

Melva also put on a desperate face. He resigned and also would not force Shena to leave if she insisted on staying married at this time as well. 

Sandra set her foot back into Shena's room, she intended to tell him that the ruler had come and occupied the ijab kabul seat. However, behind Sandra was Bagaskara who also caught up with her. 

“Ma, there is something very important,” whispered Bagaskara to his wife. 

“What's up, Pa?” Sandra was taken by her husband away from Shena's room and talked about something, but she was just about to tell Shena.

“Wire, Mom. Lucky ... My head's like it's going to break now, how's this?”

“Hah! What happened anyway, Pa?” Sandra did not understand what her husband wanted to say because he did not tell her.

Bagaskara did not continue his words. He seemed frustrated thinking of something he had just heard from the phone call. However, a moment later, he explained to his wife what had really happened.

Before long, the big door of the building was wide open. Seen a man with a neat appearance wearing a typical black men's blazer, entering the event building. He who thought the event had started, it turned out that there was not even a pair of brides who were in the luxury wedding. The man walked forward, his eyes circling around, looking for the whereabouts of someone he was looking for. Without excuse, she continued to step her feet towards the bridal makeup room in the back. Incidentally, the corridor towards the back room had no one to stand guard, so he could freely enter it.  

The man walked straight as he read one by one the inscriptions stuck on each door. Right in the room that says ‘bride of the woman’, the man then stopped his steps. He slowly knocked on the door. Three beats, the door opens. Shows Melva who opened the door. While Shena was standing in front of the mirror, she immediately turned her body once she saw the man from the mirror. 

“Elvino ..” Shena looked at the man. His voice was almost inaudible to anyone there. He purposely hid the sadness. 

"You what're coming here, huh?” melva asked cynically as soon as she saw Elvino standing in the doorway.

Elvino ignored Melva's question. He stared at the beautiful woman. “Shena .. Let me talk for a minute. I just want to say congratulations.”

Inevitably, Melva gave him a chance as well as warned. “Remember yes, don't make anything happen. Moreover intending to thwart Shena's marriage!”

Melva is still standing at the door of the—bejaga— making sure everything will be fine, while Shena just stands sculpting. His eyes were red and looked wet. Make up that managed to make himself look for was not even able to cover the look of heartache in his heart.

“You ... why come here?” Shena started to open her voice. Elvino approached and did not blink looking at the face of ayu that he so longed for. 

“I, I just want to congratulate you for your wedding. And, if allowed, I also want to say one important sentence, so that after this, I can get away from your life.”

Shena was silent a thousand languages. Not even his mind was calm because the thought of Lucky who never came, now even coupled with the presence of Elvino who did not want anything.

“Blessed?” Elvino lowered his head and continued with a thin smile, “I can read it from your face, no need to lie, Shena. But whatever it is, I won't get in the way of your show, just relax.”

Shena seemed to be breathing rough, inexplicably her heart felt tight to see Elvino standing in front of her at this moment. The man he loved but could not have. Plus, she had to marry someone else. In fact, his dream once wanted to marry Elvino, it turned out that all was just wishful thinking and despair.  

“What do you want to say exactly, El? Don't you see, Shena is already very depressed with your arrival, you better hurry up and go!” Melva yelled as she felt furious with Elvino. 

However, once again Melva's words were not considered, Elvino only focused on Shena.

“Shena, I have a little small gift for your wedding.” Elvino took out a red box containing a diamond necklace with the symbol of infinity love. “Can I put it on?”

Without consent. Elvino walked to the back of Shena who was fixated not responding, she was like frozen and confused what to do at the moment. On the other hand, she did miss Elvino a lot, but to deny her existence, she was unable to. The woman was wearing nothing on her neck. He thought, the kebaya he was wearing was already too much bead blink-blink, so it would be too rame if wearing jewelry.

The necklace is attached to Shena's white neck, the man then returns to face Shena. “Shen, I know you are so angry and hate me so much. I understand him so much. And my arrival here .. I just want you to know that, I was hurt to hear this news. The news of your marriage, somehow it feels very sick. But be calm, I will still pray for you to be a happy and lasting couple. I am so grateful for being the best woman ever in my life.”

Shena who heard Elvino's words, she couldn't hold back her tears.

“Hey, why are you crying? Bride should not cry, except happy crying.” Elvino intended to wipe away the tears, but with a quick movement, Shena brushed off the burly hand.

“El, you'd better get going. I beg. Don't bother me anymore!

“Alright, I'll go.” Elvino relented, he did not want to make Shena even sadder. 

The man then grabbed Shena's hand and kissed the back of the woman's hand. “Thank you, good luck.” 

Elvino failed to express his feelings, whereas a moment ago when he saw Shena in front of him, he was determined to say everything he was silent about. He wants to be honest, including his relationship with his wife that does not improve. However, it felt useless because Shena did not respond well to his presence. After all, if all he revealed, it would also not change anything at the moment. Shena will still marry that man. 

Elvino then walked back and slowly turned his body towards the door. However, suddenly Sandra's voice shouted calling her name from behind—the woman was walking with Bagaskara—to meet Shena. 

“Elvino!” scream Sandra.
