The Exchanged Princess

the Judah-Dita wedding

Happy reading ...

At nine in the morning, Yuda's motorbike arrived at the religious affairs office (KUA) yard . This morning he and Raydita will follow the guidance of marriage for the bride-to-be. Not only the two brides-to-be, Adisurya is also planned to follow there. Around ten o'clock, Adisurya arrived at that place. 

Adisurya is welcome to enter the room of a KUA employee. Not long after, Yuda and Raydita also entered the room.

“Please Mr Adisurya, anything to say? If there is something that needs a solution, we will solve it together. Please,” said the KUA employee.

“Begini, Sir. Raydita is my adopted son and wife. However, we already consider him like a real child. From the first day of birth until today Raydita lived with my family. But no matter how much we love Raydita, I as his father can not marry my daughter. Therefore I ask this marriage to be reversed by a judge,” Adisurya said carefully. However, there is a Raydita whose heart must be guarded.

Adisurya turned to Raydita who gave him a thin smile. Seeing Raydita's expression, the KUA employee was certainly able to catch that the child knew the truth about his status in the family from afar.

“Sorry before, Sir. How are his biological parents?” tanyanya.

Adisurya was about to tell a version of himself who wanted to cover up the disgrace of the late Rida. But then he snarled as Raydita's hand held him down to speak.

“Pak, let me answer it,” Raydita told KUA employees.

“Please.”

Adisurya's gaze looked sad on Raydita, as well as Judah. But different from the two, Raydita actually without hesitation said, “I am a child out of wedlock, sir. My mother is dead.”

The KUA employee nodded slowly while listening carefully.

“Can ‘kan Pak if this truth is not known to others. Our extended family already knows this, as well as the groom's family. For us it's not a problem, and it shouldn't be a problem later on. I'm here to ask for a solution on this. According to what I heard from some scholars, covering the disgrace is more important, let alone the disgrace of people who have died,” Adisurya said chiming Raydita.

“I understand, Mr. Adi. It has become common knowledge for us Muslims, children out of wedlock to the mother. It is true that covering the disgrace of a deceased Muslim is very important, so if there is no mention of mother bint, there are two other options, sir. One, can be just the name of the bride-to-be, or the second, can use bint Abdullah. But the meaning of the name ‘Abdullah’ here is not the name of a father, but in the sense of ‘abdi or servant of Allah’. Please want which one,” obviously KUA employees are long.

Adisurya turned to Raydita who also turned to her. A smile was engraved on Raydita's face which then wrapped her hands around Adisurya's arms. If he could, he would want to name his father. Unfortunately, a sacred bond cannot be at will.

“I chose the first one, Sir,” said Adisurya in the end.

“Good,” nod the officer. After talking for a while, Adisurya and the two prospective brides withdrew.

Meanwhile at Adisurya's residence, Annisa warmly welcomes her two best friends, Yuli and Raka who have just arrived. Not only Annisa, Ghaisan was also there.

“Kak Raka what time is it to the village? This hour has been nyampe aja,” said Annisa.

“Blindness, Nis. Afraid of rain again,” said Raka.

“What time is blind? Six hours?” tanya Ghaisan scribbled.

“Tau aja's. We're different versions, bro. Lo used to be overtime, while I was the usual misfortune. Hehhe,” said Raka.

Ghaisan noticed Raka's facial mimic which he thought was different. He knows his personal friend. Ghaisan was very sure that something was stuck in Raka's heart. Not only Raka, Ghaisan also glanced for a moment at Yuli who was smiling clumsily at Annisa. He guessed, could the couple be fighting?

“Yul, into yuk!” get Annisa excited, and just be taken slowly by Yuli.

After they died, Ghaisan glanced at Raka while starting to light his cigarette.

“Why?” tanyanya brief.

One word was enough to make Raka aghast. Raka smiled wryly to cover up her chaotic feelings, then picked up one cigarette and lit it.

“Gue keblasan, Gas,” he said slowly with a straight forward gaze.

“So you got there yesterday?”

“He-em.”

“Nginep at his home?”

“Not. What's his name? Motel time,” said Raka lazily.

“Oh. Weather support yes.”

“Support for confessing sins. Huft.”

“But good ‘kan?” seloroh Ghaisan's.

“Meat, Bro. But yes it is. How do I feel.”

“There is a calm if you have confessed sin, Ka.”

“Can ae turn on the devil. The demon's lo.”

Raka chuckled softly at the swearing of her best friend. For a moment they enjoyed the puff of cigarette smoke while talking in a quiet voice.

“Lo equals Nisa never?”

“What ever, ML (making love)? Lah, don't. You know for yourself how my relationship is with him. Not really clean, but yes to that direction Nisa can always realize I can sometimes ‘ half crazy’ if you've been to ubun-tubun.”

“Do not arrive. I also mired, Gas.”

“Yakin lo nyesel?”

“Totally. I'm so sorry, why only once, Bro.”

“Gila lo. it's addictive name, go*lok,” umpat Ghaisan that makes Raka smile wide.

“Ya lo shadow only, if ‘subside duren’ it after legal so husband and wife ‘kan delicious. You can ask again, again, and again. While the same thing happened to me and doi, boro-boro asked again, who was there to feel not gentle. Really, Gas. There's a fear he thinks I just want ‘it’ doang. I'm so afraid my love is doubted, Gas. How's dong? Give me the solution, Bro.”

“Alah. So-so, ask for a solution? Turn mepet ntar ask again,” delik Ghaisan while grinning thinly. 

“Gue seriously, Gas.”

“Yes halalin dong. Crazy if you already ‘dapat’ so it can be calm. That guy's kid, bro. Don't wait bunting first just take a stance.”

“Yes too yes. So do not wait for him to tek-dung or not, so?” asked Raka with a serious mimic.

“Do not,” sahut Ghaisan fast.

“OK. After the Dita show with Yuda is sorted out, I will talk to him,” said Raka for sure.

“That dong.”

“Ray when to go home?” ask Raka later.

“Says the hell tomorrow.”

“Asik dong can reunion. Gathering at home lo ya.”

“Oke.”

Not long after, Adisurya and the two prospective brides came. You can be sure the atmosphere of the house is so crowded. Laughter sounded simple when Raydita and Judah mentioned any of their answers in guidance at KUA earlier.

“Mama's message, don't worry about getting close to H-days you can ‘just like’. Ngerti ‘kan ya?” rianti asked while arranging their lunch menu.

“Iya, Mother. Take it easy, Yuda can work.” Rianti gave a smile hearing it.

“Yang, later if kiss gini aja.” Judah pursed his fingers, placed the tips of the fingers on his lips, and placed them on Raydita's lips.

“Diih what the hell?” delik Raydita's.

“Reply dong. Where is not felt, not reciprocated anyway. Ngenes very, Dit,” protest Yuda half joking.

“Truly want to reply?” raydita asked with a devil smile. Yuda nodded quickly. The man innocently expected Raydita to do something similar.

Raydita took a couch cushion, then kissed on the middle. Yuda stared closely, as well as the other couple in the room. Later ….

Bugh.

Raydita threw the pillow over Judah's face.

“Taste ‘kan? That's my reply. So he wasn't on the lips. Semuka is getting stuck. How about, want again?” said Raydita while holding back laughter looking at the pouting face of Yuda.

Everyone chuckles except Judah. Even Rianti, who could not help but laugh, could not help himself. Their rarity made Judah's face flutter with shame. Amongst that happiness, Raka secretly glanced at Yuli who also laughed at Judah.

Feelings raging. He looked at Raydita. A brother who is the fruit of the father's fault. The figure that once disappointed him, now it was imitated.

“No. I'll marry Yuli soon. I don't want everyone to be late for us. I don't want Yuli to hide her pregnancy, let alone an abortion. I don't want any other Aunt Rida and Dita in my life. Yup. I have my decision settled. When driving Yuli home later, I will talk to Mr. Indra,” Raka's determination in her heart.
