It may be strange but on her own engagement day Rara tries hard to hold herself unhappy. Rara did not want to until she dissolved in the charade she made herself. Though Rara herself said that she did not want first love before returning the kindness of her parents.
After the application process was completed, now Abhimanyu and Rara entered the prewedding photo shooting session. Initially it was a family photo session first, only then they were given private time, only with a staff of photographers who set their position.
"Why aren't you smiling?" ask Abhimanyu secretly. "Now you are married to grandparents when you are not willing."
"This is the story of forced marriage." Rara holds Abhimanyu's shoulder as per the photographer. "You forced me to marry me when I didn't want to. If I had mostly smiles, people would have said that to me."
"You think too much about people's opinions."
Runa glared. "Artists live by the opinions of people. I know that too."
The man even smiled. His hand that was set just sticking sweetly at Rara's waist was now moving to hold her. It wasn't a photographer's setting but the flash was still on, capturing whatever they were doing.
"Ranaya" Abhimanyu whispered in his ear. "Where do you want a honeymoon?"
The next second Rara hurriedly let go, forgetting for a moment that they were in the shooting session. The girl even threw away the face of Abhimanyu, annoyed to see him even smiling indistinctly.
"Well, do you also discuss that try?"
"Who? It's important to talk about." Abhimanyu folded his hands, replying with a very nosy face. "Don't have that in our relationship. The key to a lasting relationship is not faithful, Ranaya, but the bed."
"Do not be clear!" Rara tried hard not to scratch it.
The shame that felt turbulent in Rara's chest was very difficult for her to control. From earlier he refused the baper but Abhimanyu was constantly heating up. Doesn't he have to do it?
This relationship is not that warm!
"He, he!" The photographer applauded. "Fugitive yoke! It will be legal later!"
Rara's face grew red while Abhimanyu chuckled. During that session Rara repeatedly glared at Abhimanyu and once all was done, Rara rushed to leave him.
Abhimanyu, including Mr. Minister, had left Rara's residence. When Rara changed clothes, she went down because Abhimanyu called her to meet his brothers first.
"Known," the man pointed to his family one by one, "one of my mothers, Banyu and Cetta. This is Juwita's son, Lila, Nia, Yunia."
"Hello, Brother." Lila, the biggest among Juwita's children, greeted him kindly. "Mother said sorry can not come, because Milo was sick again. But I said he said that later, Brother's wedding will come."
Rara smiled sweetly. "Salamin Sister to your Mother well. Say thank you for the gift."
They talked for a while but since it was still new, there was still quite a lot of awkwardness. Abhimanyu also said goodbye while holding Yunia who had slept on his shoulder because she was tired.
Rara waited until Abhimanyu's car and her sister's car left. When Rara turned around, in front of the terrace it turned out that Mahen stood folding his hands.
"We haven't talked from yesterday" said the man, smiling. "Congratulations, yeah."
Rara couldn't hide her guilt. "Sorry, Mahen. I'm so sorry."
"Liet down. Your mother also explained how she was doing. It's still a good thing he didn't bring the president to bed." Mahen chuckles. "You're relaxed. No hard feelings here."
Rara immediately heaved a sigh of relief. There is good luck that the Minister interfered. That way at least Mahen was not offended heavily.
"We can still be friends, right? Talking to you is pretty good."
Of course Rara nodded. "When we talk again, yeah."
Mahen also nodded before he reached into something in his pocket, taking out a box that Rara was familiar with.
"This ...." Rara looks up. "Aren't they a gift for your mom?"
Mahen smiled funny. "liks. This is for you."
"No pa-pa. Not a love form either." Mahen took out a beautiful bracelet with the number eight as the decoration and then put it into Rara's hands. "Hopefully yah, Ra."
Rara feels guilty again for destroying Mahen's hopes. Though maybe he already thinks they can continue this but Rara actually married someone else. But this is the best. Rara cannot trap him in a relationship that Rara is not serious in. It is worse than rejecting it.
"Thank you, yeah."

After her engagement day, Rara was really busy preparing for the wedding. Indeed Abhimanyu who paid all the costs for the wedding but of course Rara and family who choose what is needed. Rara until feel her body wants to crumble because of taking care of this and that. Moreover, Rara only had two weeks because Abhimanyu wanted the marriage to take place as soon as possible.
The eyes of the wedding dress tailor and the eyes of the bride are both black for staying up late. After taking care of her clothes, Rara stopped by to pick up her invitation, then stopped by the spa where her friends were waiting. Those who took Rara to the spa because Rara said she was very busy taking care of everything.
Just as Rara finished taking off her clothes, put on a kimono and was about to enter the massage, Rara was stopped by the sound of laughter from within.
"Udah belagu he took Sakura's ex. Sok-sokan said he did not want to but his family morotin Abhimanyu did not snack."
Rara clearly realized who they were talking about.
Who else if not Rara herself.
"Absolute disgust to him? Kayak, you used to glue for famous passengers a little but now we feel the same."
"My victory is the hard-line haters of Rara, anyway. If he says he's got a pretty innocent face, his brain's a big-time actor."
"Think about what made Sakura stop by him. The first wife immediately went on to become the second wife. Oh, that's cheesy!"
"Haha!"
"Guys, you can't do that, guys. Her name is also poor. Yes all ways done dong. Pesugihan kek, winnows kek, yes including pretending not to be an actor even though the actor."
"Haha!"
Rara pressed her lips against each other. Of course he's not surprised. Even if he was surprised Rara became stupid. Rara knows all their characters and that's why Rara hangs out with them.
Because they will pretend to like someone as long as that person can be used.
No problem, whispered Rara to her slightly wounded heart. Now they're gonna lick land for me. We do not want to be sincere with each other.
"Funny, huh?"
Rara was jolted by the low voice behind her. Spontaneously he turned his head, found Anita who was also new to come, wearing a kimono like Rara.
"Friendship in the world of poor people is just as rich people seem very different," he said meaningfully.
Rara was silent but then replied, "We're all here looking for money so it can be sincere, ma'am?"
"It's funny, right?" Anita smiled mockingly at her own words. "It's funny because we're all just pretending to make money."
Yeah, it's funny.
"But Rara, if I'm to be honest, among the funny people here, I kind of like you."
"Me?"
"Or as if I like the old Rara." Anita walks past Rara. "Before you admit everything."
As soon as Anita pushed the door open, the conversation inside was over and Rara inevitably entered, as if she had heard nothing.
