CHAPTER 23
14 February
"I accept the marriage and the marriage of Amanda Shaura Tjaidjadi bint Danu Tjaidjadi with the dowry, cash," said Kendra in one breath while shaking the hand of Danu, Amanda's father.
Then the ruler asked the kebahan ijab kabul to the witnesses, simultaneously the witnesses said "legitimate.." after that the ruler recited marriage prayers.
After the prayer, the MCs let Amanda into the room for the wedding book signing, Amanda walked in slowly accompanied by Alice, her best friend. "Finally you can get him, too" whispered Alice.
Amanda just smiled at Kendra, who has now officially become her husband. While Kendra was just down, she did not turn her head at all towards Amanda, even though that day Amanda had dressed up to the maximum, she said, he even entrusted his makeup to the best MUA that used to decorate the artists of the capital, not only that, Amanda also wore white kebaya with brocade, the design of famous designers.
Amanda sits next to Kendra and does a wedding book signing, then the MC asks Kendra to pair Amanda's sweet-tongued ring. Kendra had lived for a while, it was very hard for her to put a ring on a woman she did not love at all, but she had no other choice, she slowly put the ring.
Then the MC switched to asking Amanda to pair the wedding ring on Kendra's ring finger, but apparently when Amanda was about to pair the ring, Kendra was still wearing her engagement ring with Fay. "Don't touch my ring!" kendra looked hard at Amanda. "I can take it off myself" with a heavy heart he took the ring off and put it in his pocket, only then did Amanda put their wedding ring together.
Kendra had refused, when the MC nemintanya to kiss Amanda on the forehead, he was accused of violating privacy so Kendra remained in her stance not to kiss Amanda. Not wanting to debate, Kendra immediately handed over the dowry in the form of 10 grams of precious metals, according to the request of Amanda's parents.
Finish the wedding contract procession next the procession of the ceremony grill, starting from the balang gantal, stepping on a raw chicken egg, red and white syndicated cloth, weighing weight, drinking rujak degan, kacar kacar kucur, looping, and so on, until the last silence, Amanda knelt in front of Kendra's mother, while Kendra knelt in front of her Father. Ajeng could not say anything to Amanda, on the one hand he felt sorry for the girl if it was true that Amanda was pregnant with her granddaughter, but on the other hand he could not deny that he did not have any inner bond when yesterday he had held Amanda's stomach, very much different when he stroked Carrisa's stomach, son-in-law of his first child.
Then Ammanda and Kendra swapped places, Kendra kneeling before her mother. Ajeng could not help his sobs, he hugged Kendra tightly. "Thank you for being a responsible child, believe that the truth will always find its own way" Ajeng whispered.
Kendra stroked her mother's back gently, "Sorry Kendra mah, she has done a lot of mama's fuss and made mama sad," she pecked her inund forehead and wiped her tears.
Amanda knelt before her mother while Kendra knelt in front of Danu, Amanda's father. After that, the two exchanged places.
The reception event at the title on the same day and time, none of the office friends even Kendra family he invited, 95% of the invited guests who attended came from friends and out Amanda, Amanda, but unfortunately the extended family of Bude Jum no one was present including Ratri's older brother Bude Jum.
Ratri is looking after and caring for his eldest daughter who is being treated in the hospital due to stomach acid and typhoid fever. Fay looked at the bouquet of flowers sent by Kendra, held by her mother at Fay's bedside table. In the bouquet of flowers there are birthday greeting cards and prayers for his recovery. "Why does it have to be February 14, Ken?" she whispered softly, Fay wiped away the tears that had regained their breath.
"It doesn't seem appropriate to be here" Icha said, grabbing a bouquet of Kendra's flowers and taking them out. "Stop making my brother sad!!" Icha threw the flower into the trash, then he reached into the phone in his pocket and sent a short message to Kendra.
Don't bother my brother anymore!!!
For him enough, he saw Fay grieving in the past two weeks, he missed seeing his brother's smile and cheerful laughter. Icha put her phone back in her pocket, then she looked up when someone asked her.
"Is Fay on break?" ask Kevin, a neurosurgeon who works at the hospital where Fay is treated and at the same time where Fay does his professional program.
"Mba Fay was talking to mom and dad" Icha replied. "Please get on the dock" she lets Kevin into her brother's hospital room.
For a moment Kevin glanced at the flower Icha had just thrown away, then he turned to the fruit basket he had brought for Fay. " Thank you" Kevin replied. "But please, I'll never throw my fruit away." Kevin stepped into Fay's hospital room, followed by Icha from behind.
"Assalamualaikum" said Kevin to Fay and Fay's parents, he kissed Fay's father's hand and smiled as he bowed his head to Fay's mother, and gave the fruit he brought.
"Walaikumsalam," answered Fay's parents, they were confused to see a doctor who suddenly came to give fruit and shake hands with him. But then he realized that his daughter was undergoing a professional program at the hospital and then suspected if the doctor called her friend.
Seeing Fay's parents, Kevin introduced himself and told him a little about his friendship with Fay, after Fay took part in an operation he had done some time ago. Kevin turned to face Fay. "There are patients with Marfan syndrome, who will undergo surgery with Bentall procedure, do you want to miss it?" ask Kevin.
Fay's eyes immediately sparkled, finding an offer to watch the relatively rare operation, he immediately shook his head. "Of course I'd like to come, doc."
"So get well soon" said Kevin.
After chatting for almost thirty minutes with Fay and his family, Kevun was pleased to return to duty.
