UNEXPECTED MARRIAGES

UNEXPECTED MARRIAGES
THE WOUNDED HEART



After dinner, Belinda rushed to her room. He caught a cell phone lying on the bed. In click-clicks. A second later he was disappointed. His name is not on the list of winners


the poetry race he had followed. It turns out that the poetry writing competition is not as easy as the fashion show competition that was once followed secretly first. The first one got the champion.


Belinda broke her body. Stretching it, which feels sore after a day of driving Adam shopping for necessities and marriage contracts. In accordance with the agreement of the two families, tomorrow is the day


handover to the women's family but the wedding is held in this house. Adam refused to throw a big party. She felt ashamed. Finally, there will only be a wedding event by inviting family and closest friends.


Belinda's mind then soared to the time this afternoon. When he saw Adam and Ruri farewell for the second time. He was as if he was witness to a romance that could not be united. If it becomes a novel, it will be a love novel that drains tears. Ah, if only, could she be a goddess of help for them?


Belinda tilted her body to the right. He recalled, when his mother was alive, Adam often lay his head in the lap of the mother. Not infrequently she poured out everything she felt. her brother was so close to mommy. However, since my mother left, Adam who is cold character becomes increasingly cold.it is because Adam is the type of person who is closed. He will only be open to certain people.


Tiii! Tiii! Tiiiing! Handphone reads. Belinda. Phone call from Vienna. His face immediately turned cheerful. He missed the voice of his friend.


“Hello, Bell. What more?” The sound of the Vienna cry is deafening.


“Can slow down a bit, right Win?”


“Sorry, sorry. What about the poetry race? Won no? Today's the announcement, right?”


Asked that, Belinda immediately pouted. “But sustenance, Win.”


“Don't be sad. This is just the beginning, my friend. Oya, what about ospek in your major? Exciting ya?”


Belinda breathed an annoyed sigh. This again. “No need to ask about ospek, okay!”


“Why? Is it because Candra also majored in it?”


Belinda breathed again. “Yes. That's one factor. But other than that there's someone else, Win.”


“oya? Who?”


“Ah, I've been lazy to discuss it.”


“It looks like you are really upset huh at him?”


“Yes, that's it. Ah, forget. You yourself how?”


Silent.


“Hey, I don't answer anyway, Win?”


“I'm imagining, Bel.”


Kening Belinda shriveling. “Ignate what?”


“Antend him. I think I'm in love, deh.”


Belinda's eyes widened. “What? Same who?”


“Unfortunately I don't know his name.”


Belinda direct lemes. “Hah, basic.”


“Eh, Bell, yes. My mom called tuh.”


Belinda put her phone again on the bed. Now he is contemplating the words of Vienna which he says are already in love. In love? What the hell does it feel like? Far away he thought of that to the point of making him sleepy. Then fall asleep covered in a warm night.


***


Adam looked at his dashing looking self in a gray suit in the mirror. But that bravery is not accompanied by a happy face. Let alone that, smile no more. He didn't feel like living today. He did not want to go there, to the house of his future wife. If he could do something, he wanted to reject this marriage.


Adam sat on the side of the bed. In his view a figura was on a small table beside the bed. Inside the figura was a photo of him and Ruri with mouths deliberately made manyun. Ruri's hand was embracing her shoulder. As long as he is friendly, Ruri is more aggressive than him.


Adam grabbed the figura. Observe it carefully. Slowly rubbed. Then he said, “Maybe you're already in Holland. You may have told your parents that you are willing to marry the man of their choice. Hah, Ruri, why is our destiny like this?”


“Kak.”


A gentle call at the door surprised him.


“Papi told sister to get off. We have to leave soon.”


Adam put the figura back in its place. “Ya, sister will be down soon.”


“Oke, then I go down first. Don't be long.” Belinda reverse body. However, before he came out, he had a chance to glance at the figura that had been held by his brother. For the umpteenth time his heart was filled.


Mr. Gunawan and the family who helped usher were ready in front of the house when Adam came out with an excited look. Seeing that, Pak Hartawan –adik Pak Gunawan- patted his nephew's shoulder.


“Prepare your heart. Be kind. Maybe this is best for you.”


Adam silent. The words of Mr. Hartawan actually make his chest feel tight. It was not easy for him to prepare a heart for a fate that was extremely painful. Actually, Mr. Gunawan is not ignorant of the feelings of the son


that firstborn. But like Adam, he could do nothing but hold Adam responsible because his son could not prove that he was not the one who impregnated the girl. While the evidence says that it was his son who impregnated the girl.


“Already. Now let's go. Your future wife called.”  Mr. Hartawan embraced Adam, pulling his body to move. With a step that felt so heavy, Adam stepped into the car. Same with everyone on that page.


***


The woman was in front of him. The woman he has to marry in two days. The truth is, the woman is not ugly. Even beautiful. But her beauty was unable to melt Adam's heart. Quite the contrary, though,


her future husband put his hatred on her.


Lala's face –calon wife Adam-appears radiant. Throughout the event, her lips continued to sing a happy smile. Of course it is. Because everyone who was present at the event and was female, was amazed at Adam. They whispered to each other in praise. Who is not impressed with Adam. Not only is he handsome, he is also a doctor, and comes from a family of being. At school, many people love and expect their love. However, none of them could touch his cold heart. Only a Rurilah is capable.


The event was solemn and smooth. But Adam did not get the impression because throughout the show he was immersed in his own feelings. He doesn't care about the situation around him. If he is happy, he is part of the part that does not feel happy. How could he feel that if this event was what tore his heart apart.


The show ends with a meal. Adam, who had not touched the rice in the morning, did not care about the scream of his starving stomach. His mouth was bitter and bland. He had no desire to eat at all.


“So, eat a little!” Belinda thrust out a plate with the contents. Adam only looked into the plate at a glance.


“I'm not hungry.”


“Seconds can't be hungry. But we must appreciate who has a home.”


Adam remained silent. Belinda's words are right. Finally, he also received the plate. Then put the contents one spoonful after another into the mouth. He forced his mouth to chew and forced it to


ingesting. He had not noticed anyone since he started looking at her. Lovingly.
