"who's Jes ?" ask Regina.

"restaurant waitress, there's a letter for you Re. But there's no sender's name" Jessica replied as she walked over to the regina flipping through the letter.

"letter?" Regina scrunched her forehead and received the letter from Jessica's hand.

slowly Regina opened the anonymous letter,

"dear Regina's..

Re, sorry I can't come. I'm not ready to marry you. It doesn't mean I don't love you Re, I love you so much. But to be married, honestly I'm not ready for Re. I still want to be free, I don't want to be preoccupied with taking care of my wife and children. Sorry Re, I don't mean to embarrass your family by hurting you like this, but I really can't marry you. again forgive me Re. sorry.. (Anton)"

the contents of the letter made Regina's body limp for a while she was silent, her heart refused to accept Anton's decision to leave her at the wedding counting these minutes.

Regina grabbed her phone on the dresser.she tried to call Anton but it turns out that Anton has blocked Regina's number. many times Regina still tried to call Anton, Anton, Jessica walked over to Regina who looked confused.

"Re..what's up? whose letter is that? what's inside?" ask Jessica who is still trying to call Anton.

Jessica grabbed the letter that was still in Regina's hands, her eyes wide open reading the contents of the letter.

"fucking guy basics !! she could be acting like a child !" Jessica squeezes the letter and throws it in any direction.

"Regina stop it ! don't call him anymore." Jessica snatched Regina's phone.

"Regina. mami come in, son." Ira opened the room door slowly.

regina was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a letter that Jessica had been wringing.

"Regina, where's Anton? soon you'll have to get married, but why hasn't Anton and his family been seen?" Ira asked who was sitting next to her daughter.

"Anton won't come Aunt." said Jessica who sat on the sofa.

"what do you mean Jes? why won't Anton come?" ask Ira who is confused.

Jessica was silent, her eyes looking at the letter Regina was reading. Ira quickly picked up the letter. Anton read, "Anton?" a clear feather fell on Ira's cheek after reading the letter.

"mi..quickly take Regina out, the guests have come mi.." said Surya who was opening the door of the room.

"mi.why is mommy crying, what's up? Jessica, what is this? Regina?" surya asked who took turns looking towards the three women.

"pi.. Anton goes pi, he won't come." said Ira who was still as much as she wanted. Jessica's tears also spilled over to see her friend who was silent, her eyes blank. I don't know why Regina didn't cry about all this. Jessica was afraid of something that she did not want to happen.many times she shook Regina's body, but Regina did not budge in the slightest.

" what !!!!" shouted the surprised Surya.

"the papi told you from the beginning.he's a bad guy for you, but you still love that guy. Look now ! he left you at the wedding counting these minutes." Surya pointed at Regina with a sharp gaze giving off all his anger.

"papi.don't talk like that pi, pity Regina." said Ira.

"but the reality is like that mi. basic brash man. both his parents also had no news until now. they deliberately wanted to humiliate our family. then how now?! all the business associates have come, want to put where the face papi Re !! where to put it!!!" shouted Surya who could not hold his patience anymore.

"coat ! still had time to think about the problem of business associates papi. see our son pi, pity Regina."

"she should have been able to read everything from the beginning of the mi, which she knew only love, love, and love, she blinded love to the point of not being able to see the bad side of the man." Surya pointed at Regina who was still silent with a blank look.

"Re, say something. Don't be like this Re. I'm confused to see you like this." Jessica crouched down in front of Regina while touching her friend's cold hand.

"sorry sir, I would like to ask. The groom can not call, I tried to call him but the number is not active sir, the predecessor has been waiting from earlier sir." jerry said slowly that he had actually heard everything.

"there will be no marriage ! get everyone home" Ira snapped.

only halfway through, Jerry was followed up by his boss.

"Jerry ! why did you call the bride so long? then why did you come back alone, why don't you bring all the brides." said the boss in an angry tone.

"indeed the bride is a bag of groceries what use is brought." murmured softly Jerry.

"what are you talking about?!"

"no sir." said Jerry.

"answer my question, where is the bride?"

"that's sir, the bride.."

"that's what?"

"that sir..." Jerry is confused as to how to convey to his boss if the groom will not come.

"that's what, quick to say, why are you nervous like that? it's not your wedding Jer, don't be nervous like the bride-to-be."

"that's sir, the groom won't be coming." Jerry explained slowly.

"meaning?" he scrunched his forehead.

"yes sir, the groom is not coming, madam Ira told me to tell all the guests if the wedding is cancelled."

"what??!!! don't joke you Jer.."

"no sir, I am serious. The groom will not come, and this marriage is canceled, lord Surya is angry inside, but the bridegroom..." Jerry stopped his words.

"what's wrong with the bride?"

"she just kept quiet sir, I wonder why she didn't cry or get angry when her future husband left her at a time like this." Jerry's boss fell silent to Jerry's explanation, is it true that the bride does not cry.

"excuse me sir, I'd like to tell everyone if the wedding is canceled." Jerry walked up to the ballroom.

"wait !" said the boss who immediately stopped Jerry's steps.

"don't tell anyone first, I'll look into the bride's room."

"what are you going there for?"

"sideline, don't ask too many questions."

Jerry just silently looked at his boss who was walking towards the bride's room.

for a long time the owner of SABILA WEDDING AND EVENT ORGANIZER stood in front of the door of the hotel room and heard the debate between Surya and Ira, there was no sound from the bride.

the man could not help his curiosity. Surya opened the door.

"sorry sir, is this marriage really canceled?" the man asked slowly so as not to offend Surya and his family.

"yes, this marriage is void." said Ira when Surya never answered the question.

"but lady.." Ira cut the man's words.

"calm down, we will still pay for everything.You have nothing to lose" Ira said with emphasis.
