Blue Eyes
ON 56


Halimah who was standing behind the wall, eavesdropping on the conversation of her parents and Idris' parents, smiled faintly.


He has been thrilled to find out that he will be paired with Idris, a man he has admired since childhood.


When Idris lived in Thailand, they often met because Ilyas always brought along if going to Brunei.


Idris is very friendly and polite, he is also handsome charming.So Princess Halimah is fascinated.


*


After dinner together, the two families of the sultanate was gathered in the family room.Actually Idris was reluctant to gather, because of what was discussed it was all.But because Nicta forced, Idris finally relented.


"RIS....do you know why Uncle and Bibik Paduka Sultan came to our hut?"Tanya Ilyas fished a conversation.


"Don't know Pa"Idris added a head bobble.Zubair and Zulaikha smiled knot getting a questionable Idris Stare.


"They want to match you with Halimah's daughter"Ilyas pointed to the position of Halimah Tus Sa'diyah at that time, the veiled girl who was bowed so deeply.


"What?? Papa don't joke ah"Idris smiled amusedly.


"When has Papa ever joked ?"


Idris's smile immediately disappeared as soon as he saw the look in his eyes.


"Papa know you will definitely refuse, but.you have no choice RIS.The sultanate of Brunei Darussalam needs you"


"Idris Indonesian Pa.. has nothing to do with neighboring country "Disput Idris without fear.


Unexpectedly, Empress Zulaikha decays to the floor in a row in front of Idris.


"Son..if you ask me to kiss your feet?then I will...Because if the throne falls to Prince Abdul Jailani, then the sultanate of Brunei will collapse.England will control Brunei Darussalam "


"Yes son..we know you will not be that easy to accept this matchmaking, but please Brunei, help a small innocent society if Brunei is controlled by England ??"Zubair added.


Idris looked in shock, he stared one by one the faces of everyone in the room.And suddenly Soraya's face smiled at him.


"No!!I can't "Idris shakes fast.


Ilyas exchanged glances with Zubair, he was very worried to see his son's response.


Halimah was bowed, she hid her sadness behind the veil.


Suddenly Zulaikha lowered his head Kissing Idris's leg, Sontak Idris immediately pulled his foot onto the chair he was sitting on.


"I beg you son.I beg you..."Zulaikha begged for this marriage, she sobbed.


"The Empress. Don't do that, you wake up"Nicta helps Zulaikha wake up.


"No...I can't let my people be the victims of my inability to bear a son.Only Idris our hope, only him"The body of Zulaikha was shaken, Nicta knelt hugging Zulaikha.Her eyes alone looked at her son.He was in a dilemma,between allowing or seeing their children happy.


Idris ducked, hugging his body to protect his feet from being worshipped.


"RISE...."Ilyas approached his son "I know this is heavy for you Son.."Smooth strokes landed on Idris' shoulder.The boy was silent unmoved, he was very distressed with all this.The shadow of Soraya's smile danced on his eye cuffs.


"Papa never asked you anything, but this time?Papa begged you to help them"Ilyas said,


Idris Raised his face, His gaze was pushy, his eyes glazed over.


"Pa...I love Aya'.and now ??Papa asked me to marry another girl??"


"Son.you can marry whomever you wish, your marriage to Halima is only for the status of strengthening the sultanate" Zubair preempted to reply.


Nicta and Ilyas were surprised to hear that, but they could only look at each other.


"So.. can you marry Halimah ??"Connect Zubair.


Idris was bowed in an unchanging position.Both of his knees were hugged tightly.


"Help them..."Ilyas again persuaded "You heard it for yourself, right?? This marriage is just a status you just married her"


Idris did not budge.Everything became silent.


"That's what you want, son??Because the Throne is still my position.Once again I say, this is just a status marriage only.For the opposing camp is no longer aggressively attacking the position of the Sultanate"Jawab Zubair.


No response from anyone, Idris himself silently thought.


"Well, it's just a marriage status, so don't ask me for more.And enough marriage contract, just,without a party or anything that invites the public to know.Because I don't want my loved ones to be hurt by this pseudo-marriage"


"And as for the girl "Idris did not glance a single glance at Halimah"Don't demand anything from me as a husband"


Idris lowered his legs, he got up and left without saying goodbye.


"Alhamdulillah..."Zulaikha was so happy, he bowed in gratitude for Idris' decision.Nicta embraced it with feelings of haru.


Zubair got up from his seat, he hugged Ilyas warmly.


While Nicta and Ilyas themselves are unable to speak.Because they are very shocked at Zubair's request regarding this marriage.


A pseudo-marriage that is just a status to save the kingdom.Would it not cause trouble later ???

"Iamazand..."


Halimah came to see her parents in their room.Zubair and Zulaikha were chatting.


"Yes my daughter..What is it ??"


"Why did Father decide this marriage in such a way ?? Does Father not care about my feelings???"


"Malter..."Zulaikha put her daughter's shoulder on her"If we don't say so, Idris can't possibly marry you? how do you stay husband and wife, is that Idris' intention only for a status.But you are still husband and wife, God's word or the law.You understand right??"


Halimah nodded slowly.


"The problem is Idris loves other girls, do not take heart.After you are legitimately his wife.You have many opportunities to be able to make Idris fall in love.Do as well as possible "Zubair added.


Halimah nodded again.


"Now prepare yourself for this marriage "said Zulaikha.

AKH!!!


Idris is very upset that Soraya's phone number remains inactive.He is eager to tell the girl about this.


If necessary, he will go far after Soraya.


But??? His number could not be contacted.


"Yes' Where are you??I need you baby.I'm sorry I didn't trust you.I'm sorry.."


Idris leaned over the mattress and cried while banging on his bed.


Her heart was hurting, she did not want Soraya to think she had betrayed her.Soraya must know, but how did she tell?.


Whether Soraya is now on which side of the earth, Idris does not know that.


Soraya herself was still overwhelmed with grief, unable to cast the shadow of Idris' face from her eyes.


Although in front of Mr. Luyo and Ahmad Soraya smiled and laughed, but all that was just his attempt to forget Idris.


The more he forgets, the more his heart hurts.Finally, Soraya gives up.He activates the phone that he has turned off for a few days.


Just now On, how many incoming calls and also unrequited messages.Including Idris, Almost reached the number a thousand times missed calls.


Soraya smiled faintly, a happy smile from the bottom of her heart.He immediately contacted the man's number.


But not raised, Yes, because at that time.Idris was doing ijab qobul in a large mosque.
