That day came, the day Auryn would enter a new phase of his life. A new life, a new status, a new family and of course a new taste.
The day that was supposed to be the biggest and happiest day in a woman's life, didn't make Auryn that happy. How not, he had no one to accompany him. Yes, even though there is Yumi, but still he really expects the presence of his mother or maybe the figure of the Father that he is not sure it exists.
"Wahh, I'm not very pretty." Yumi who just entered the room that is devoted to make up the bridal room.
Their wedding was held at Archie's own hotel, with a massive party that would probably be the main discussion in their city and even their country. Given the status of the Alterio family which is one of the biggest business holders in Europe or maybe the world.
"…." - ".Auryn only smiled faintly in response.
"Why is my brother sad?" The girl slowly approached Auryn, lying if she did not know her brother's grief.
"Sister should smile, Mother must be sad if sister is unhappy." Yumi said so, although she was equally sad.
"All right." Auryn forced his smile.
^^^^
They have been a couple since an hour ago. Auryn is standing next to Archie as her husband.
Now Auryn can smile a little, after an hour ago the girl cried the day because of Zach, her father-in-law.
Flashbacks
Tok
Seeing who was coming, the three MUA men in charge of handling Auryn came out on instructions from Zach. Feeling that only the two of them are left, Zach approaches Auryn who will soon become his daughter-in-law.
"You nervous, son?" Zach picked up a bench and sat down right in front of the girl.
"A little Dadd." Auryn lowered his gaze.
"Hey, what's with that sad face heum? Look at Daddy." Tell Zach, raise Auryn's chin in one hand.
"Auryn, can Daddy be your companion? Replacing your father's position just for today?" Pinta Zach clasped the girl's hand, which was now wrapped in thin gloves that matched her dress.
"Of course, even Ryn doesn't mind if Daddy wants to be Ryn's father forever." Tears fall again, but no longer tears of sadness but tears of happiness.
Flashback off
"Mmm.Ar," call Auryn to turn his head toward her husband. Although not used to it, inevitably, like it not like it, Auryn must accept Archie who is now legally her husband.
"Yes?" Sahut Archie who also turned towards Auryn.
"Why can the dress change with this one? And not Mommy's choice dress?" Yes, since then the girl wanted to ask but did not know who.
"The dress was not Mommy's choice, but Aunt Chris. After all, this is our wedding and we should have chosen according to our taste. And I like your choice, too, because I don't want anyone to see something that's supposed to be mine." Obviously Archie, but Auryn did not understand the sentence that her husband said at the end.
"See what?" Auryn asked innocently.
"Forget over. We'd better greet the guests." Archie clasped his wife's waist to balance their steps to meet the guests who were all guests of her husband and family.
^^^^
The time has shown ten o'clock at night, meaning their wedding has been over since two hours ago. The new couple, now sitting side by side on their wedding bed after cleaning themselves.
"Are you sleepy yet?" Archie broke the silence between them.
"Do you want to do something?" Archie again asked the thing that made Auryn nervous.
"Something what?" Auryn restrained his nervousness by acting as if everything was fine.
"Aren't you going to open that?" The words of the man whose status was her husband managed to make Auryn stupefied thinking no-no.
"Me-open ap-pa?" It was Auryn's turn to ask in disbelief.
"That? Gifts from our guests and relatives." Instantly Archie's words made Auryn sneer, a feeling of immediate relief crept in his heart.
"Oh ah.it. All right, let's take a look together." Auryn's nervousness this time, more to condemn his stupidity.
Be now a new couple sitting cross-legged on the floor covered with soft hairy carpet which of course at an exorbitant price.
Their hands each grabbed one gift at a time and opened to see what it contained. Overall, the gift contains clothes and jewelry. There are also some gifts that contain some clothes that are not worth wearing or lack of materials and that's a gift from Archie's best friend.
"Mm.Ar see this from Auntie. Why is Aunt giving me a gift?" Ask Auryn astonished.
"Either. I don't understand either." Sambar Archie who is still opening some other gifts.
"Ar..ini," Auryn showed the contents of the gift which is a rectangular velvet box of medium size, in which there is a pair of beautiful earrings that are interpreted to be very expensive.
"Pretty." Archie's response was beyond Auryn's expectations.
"Why does Ar see this as normal? Do rich people usually give gifts this expensive when there are relatives who are married?" Inner Auryn asked in astonishment.
"Look, this is from Kate. It's best not to open it, it must be just as strange as the parcels from Aiden and Lyan." Archie hid the box behind his body.
"Why? Who knows, it's funny Ar. Bring it." Archie who does not want their first night of failure to happen debate, chose to give up. He gave the box to his wife to open.
"Wahh.this is so good Ar." Auryn cheer pleased. The gift from Kate is after the clothes complete with shoes and clucth which is the perfect blend.
"Mmm.you can wear it while accompanying me to eat dinner with a client later." Archie rubbed his wife's head.
"What kind of girl are you? You don't mind any gifts that other people give you, you don't even cheer when you get an expensive gift inside." Inner Archie, he stared fixedly at the face of the girl who had become his.
"Ar, Mommy also gave gifts. Why Ar?" The same question was asked by Auryn.
"Because you're his son-in-law. Maybe Mommy would bribe you to be her daughter." Gurau Archie, pinched Auryn's cheek.
"try to see. What's it say?" Archie was just as curious as Auryn.
"Mmm.." Auryn agreed.
Deg
Again an expensive gift, Auryn looked at his mouth in disbelief. Slowly opened the box which was also made of velvet, the same as the gift from Chris was just a different size. If it was a medium size, then it's bigger.
Just as the box was opened, Auryn was completely dumbfounded. How not, if the gift from Chris alone is expensive, what else is this. A gorgeous diamond-encrusted jewelry set consists of necklaces, earrings, bracelets and a full ring all.
"Thank you. You deserve it. Since they don't consider you to be materialistic at all, then the reward is worth it for you." Sela Archie could read his wife's thoughts.
