The Sacrifice of Nayra

Wedding Preparation

After breakfast, Maya invites Nayra to sit on the sofa to talk. Alina followed them. While Ms. Aini went into the room to check on baby Kyara.

"Nayra from now on you call the same Aunt Om Syamsul 'Mama Sama Papa' yes! Now you are part of our family" said Ms. Maya.

"E. yes Aunt, uh Mama"

"Nay, I'm so happy that you're going to be my sister-in-law" Alina added.

Nayra only responded by forcing a smile on her tiny lips.

"Nayra you'll come with Mama, we'll find a wedding dress for your wedding tomorrow"

"E. No need Ma, Nayra is wearing ordinary clothes. It just so happened that Nayra brought some pretty nice clothes"

"It can't be so Nayra, it's a wedding. Maybe this marriage only happens once in your lifetime. Don't you want to wear bridal clothes? My mom doesn't want you to regret it later. Mama can understand that you do not want a party because we are still in a state of mourning. But if you're wearing bridal clothes, Mama, you think it should be Nayra"

'I dreamed that someday I would be a bride. A very beautiful bride in a very beautiful white dress like a princess. And I sat down at the aisle with Mas Adit. But now all those dreams are shattered into pieces. That dream will never come true. Because the truth is. I have to marry Mas Rama, the husband of my own brother.

"Nayra" cried Maya.

"Eh yes Ma"

"What are you thinking? You want to come with Mama?"

"I am Ma"

"Then be prepared. We're leaving now"

"Alin can come with Ma?"

"Of course, baby"

After changing clothes and saying goodbye to Bu Aini, Nayra went with Bu Maya and Alina to one of the best wedding organizers in Jakarta.

"Good morning, Mom. Can we help you?" ask the WO owner.

"Please find the best wedding clothes for my future daughter-in-law" said Bu Maya, pointing to Nayra.

"Good Mom. Please come with me. I have a huge collection of modern kebaya and a nice wedding dress"

Maya also chose some good kebaya and told Nayra to try it. Nayra also tried one by one the kebaya was assisted by the owner of the WO and then showed it to Bu Maya and Alina. Everything looks very beautiful and fits perfectly in Nayra's body.

"Nay you're so pretty wearing a wedding dress. Isn't it Ma?" praise Alina.

"Yes dear. Nayra is as beautiful as Aisha" said Maya.

The deg!

Nayra's heart suddenly thumped as soon as she heard Bu Maya mention Aisha's name. Nayra's face instantly turned grim. Mom Maya and Alina notice the change in look on Nayra's face.

"Emh. I'm sorry Mama Nayra, Mama didn't mean to..."

"No pa pa Ma. Nayra is fine"

"Yes, you choose one of the clothes you like. Everything looks good"

"Yes Ma. Nayra was also confused as to which one to choose"

"What if this one's just Nay? Earlier you looked very beautiful wearing this" said Alina while showing one kebaya that had been tried with Nayra.

"Mama likes that too" Maya said.

"All right Alina, it's up to you"

They also took a set of white modern kebaya along with a set of groom clothes for Rama. Bu Maya also told the WO party to come to the house early tomorrow to decorate Nayra.

After the wedding dress business is finished, Bu Maya invites them to the mall to buy a set of prayer tools that will be used as a dowry. Nayra just obeyed Bu Maya without refuting a bit. But when Maya invites him to a jewelry store and tells Nayra to choose a set of jewelry, Nayra immediately rejects it raw.

"Your nayra choose a set of jewelry you like"

"Why Nay? It's for your dowry"

"Mahar Nayra is quite a set of prayer tools only Ma. No need to wear jewelry"

"Nayra, you can't refuse sustenance. Mama bought it for you"

"Have you chosen Nay, or let me pick it for you?" Alina chimed.

"But Alina..."

Nayra could not resist anymore. Alina immediately gercep choose a set of gold jewelry consisting of necklaces, bracelets, and rings that are very beautiful for Nayra. After the business of bridal clothes and dowry was completed, Maya Ma'am took them home.

***

Mr. Syamsul has contacted Mr. Penghulu who will marry Rama and Nayra tomorrow morning. He also prepared witnesses. Mr. Syamsul has also been looking for a baby sitter to treat Kyara.

Rama kept himself in the room. After finishing breakfast this morning, he went straight into the room and never came out again. Bu Maya had invited Rama to fit the wedding dress but Rama firmly rejected it. Maya can't force Rama, so she leaves with Nayra and Alina.

Geck.. Geck.. Geck...

There were people who knocked on the door of Rama's room several times. Rama who was standing at the window turned to the source of the sound.

"Lake in!" exclaim Rama.

Chequek!

Maya and Alina are seen entering Rama's room. Mom Maya's got something in her hand.

"Rama, here's your wedding dress. You try it first yes fit or not!" said Bu Maya while putting a set of groom clothes on the bed Rama.

Rama is just silent. Not a word came out of his mouth. He only glanced at the glance of the bride's clothes then turned his gaze out the window. She had absolutely no interest in trying on that bridal outfit. Right now all she has in mind is Aisha.

"Sister Rama why Brother? Why is Rama silent? Mama is talking to Rama" asked Alina.

"Sister Rama just wants Alina alone. Please leave Brother Rama alone!"

Alina and Maya looked at each other. Then Maya beckons Alina to come out. Maya and Alina leave Rama alone in the room.

'Aisha. If Mas could choose, Mas would rather be widowed for the rest of Mas's life than marry again. You know Mas loves you very much, Aisha. You will not be able to love anyone but you. If not for the sake of our son Kyara, Mas would not have agreed to marry Nayra, Rama said in his heart.
