The Love of Kalila

Finally Married

Marcel's earnestness to propose Sindi made it to the land of Garut which is in the far reaches of the mountain. Meeting Sindi's mother father accompanied by Marlon sir and aunt Henny.

The news of the arrival of the family of his former candidate had been heard long ago. For that he has prepared something the best, be it food, clothing, and repainting the walls of the house that was originally worn out since the last time Sindi left.

The conversation between the two parents became serious. While those involved in the wedding plan only hear and accept the decision. Exactly one month from now, there will be a massive wedding party in Batam. The entire Sindi family will be financed, from departure until the reception is over.

After Marcel's family resigned, Sindi was still at his parents' house to be pinched. Because marriage preparation has been done by the professional party of Aunt Henny.

Sindi's face grimly as time went by. And it gets more somber when he gets the tidings of joy from Dhika through chat. The man said nothing but 'Congratulations to your marriage.' With a soft voice and a sad look.

"Sir, we should cancel this marriage" said Sindi timidly to the father who was counting the remaining dowry money he had used partly to buy home appliances.

Mr. Ujang stopped counting, and slammed a bundle of money he was holding onto the table. Then he slapped Sindi's cheek. That's how the girl was raised.

"You see that." point it at the money that was slammed. "Can you give it back in one piece?" sentak Pak Ujang's.

Sindi grimaced in pain. Swiping his cheek that was five fingers belonged to the father.

"If you are devoted to your parents, do this marriage! Raise your degrees with your mother! Let no one embarrass your mother's father!" toyor Pak Ujang to the head of Sindi who bowed resigned. "Children don't know themselves. Go ye! Compress your cheek before we leave for Batam tomorrow."

Mr. Ujang again counted the money. Sad, Sindi returned to her room. Suddenly he remembered Dhika. Which he always saw as a grown man. An adult male who is able to protect himself from a madman whom he is forced to call an old man.

"Mas." said Sindi sobbing as Dhika long enough to answer a video call from Sindi.

Looking from behind the scenes Sindi sobbed, Dhika panicked.

"You why? Who makes the cry? Marcel?" tanya Dhika hunted high curiosity.

"No, mas. Nope. It's not Marcel's fault. Hix.. Hiks.." Sindi's crying could no longer speak.

The depiction of Sindi's sad face disrupts Dhika's life in the land of people. I wondered what made the girl cry. Though he had promised himself to forget for a moment his feelings for Sindi. But I can't. Can't do.

Impulsively, as a result Dhika returned to Tanjungpinang so Sindi also left for Batam. They also met in Tanjungpinang, when Sindi was about to visit Marcel to his hotel.

Sad face cannot be hidden.

"What are you crying about? Soon you will be the most beautiful woman who will get married." said Dhika saddened.

They met at a seaside cafe, where Marcel used to take him when Sindi played to Tanjungpinang.

"I don't know. I don't feel good." Sindi answered.

"That's how people get married. That's why your communication to Marcel needs to be maintained at these times. Don't get me wrong." Dhika gives advice with air sacs that have been thinned in her lungs to stifle her chest.

"Why are you crying like that when the video calls me?" dhika asked softly, considering that time really he could not sleep well thinking about Sindi's face.

"So. It's because I fought with my father. No problem." elak Sindi did not dare to be frank.

"Good then."

And every day Sindi waited for Marcel to finish work, he always took the time to meet Dhika and chat a lot of things. Make their relationship more intense and worrying.

"Bro, you want to get married but still busy working together?" sahut Dem entered Marcel's room.

"Hm." dehem Dem hesitated. There was something he wanted to say, but was confused as to how it was delivered. "Sindi doesn't often shunjungi lo bro?"

"Often, you'll be here." Answer Marcel again.

"Oh, that's it. All right." concluded Dem restrained.

Marcel was silent for a moment. Staring at the sheet of paper on his desk. He also wanted to say something to his best friend, but was stuck in the esophagus as well.

"Dam."

"Bro."

They both spoke at the same time.

"Dem, whatever you see out there about Sindi, please, let. I don't want to break my trust in him. And he also keeps my trust. What you see, consider it because there is no one he can talk to when he is being crushed by a storm before marriage." added Marcel who apparently already knows something about Sindi. It must be about meeting Dhika who is getting more intense.

"Lo know bro?" Dem was shocked to believe. Can't believe that his best friend is a helpless person in love. "And you diem?"

"All for the common good. I am still marrying him anyway. There's no reason for me to worry." Marcel's smile was meaningful.

"Bro, being married is just as loving is different. Okay I open it all in front of you. This is what I once told you. Sindi is not sincere."

"Dem." call Marcel. "Gue please." Marcel's submission made Dem stop advising his best friend. Because it's too late.

"alright. That's your choice."

After Dem came out, Marcel seemed to be able to breathe a sigh of relief. Yes, he knew what Sindi was doing before meeting her. Often he caught Sindi sitting alone in the cafe. But he scolded because Sindi looks comfortable and may be issuing complaints to Dhika who has been considered an older brother by Marcel.

"I received the marriage of Sindi Sarsastika bint Ujang Dayana with a dowry of 50 million rupiah paid in cash" said Marcel smoothly after memorizing the kabul ijab overnight.

"Well." shouted the audience and Mr. Ujang the most powerful.

The whole audience was enthusiastic. Except for Dhika who was looking from a distance. Clenching his hand a helpless sign.

After the event, the two were taken to the main house of Mr. Marlon to rest because tomorrow will only be held a very tiring reception.

"Aren't you in the shower?" tanya Sindi who just finished the bath.

Marcel's eyes look sparkling. More sparkling again when he saw the woman he had been keeping his sight and lust in front of his eyes. Wearing thin bedclothes. Slightly wet due to the splash of his hair which is also the same wet. Develop Marcel's passion for maleness.

Quickly the man launched his action but was rejected by Sindi. "You take a shower first. It's sticky 'cause we've been dry all day." Sindi's pretext is to keep Marcel from getting angry.

"Judek. Wait a minute." seduced Marcel.

Marcel took a bath, and Sindi chose to pretend to sleep. She is not ready to do her duty as a wife because her heart does not belong to her husband.

"Babe, are you sleeping?" marcel asked so out of the bathroom and also dressed thinly.

There was no answer from Sindi who chose to sleep on her back. "Capek, huh? Good night to sleep." Kecup Marcel to Sindi's forehead.

And Sindi was increasingly burdened with Marcel's good attitude. She chose to put her tears under the pillow.
