Divorced Due to Paralysis
S2. Readiness

It's Laura's last night as before she becomes Jeff's wife tomorrow, at 10am and right now also she really can't sleep thinking about her wedding tomorrow.

Tonight he was enjoying his solitude in his room, Laura was on his balcony enjoying the view of their courtyard in the ornamentation at the moment. Many workers have to work overtime to prepare everything for tomorrow. While he was alone, his phone rang and it was an incoming call from Jeff.

"Would he call me?" laura asked when she saw Jeff calling her tonight. Though the clock has shown at 10 pm, but why not sleep too?

"Hello," said Laura when their phone line was connected.

"Why not sleep?" jeff asked as Laura answered the phone call from him.

"I should have asked why you haven't slept? It's 10 in the night but you haven't slept yet. So what are you doing right now?" Laura asked Jeff who was not asleep when it was night.

"I asked you why you asked me back?"

"Obviously I asked back. I want to know what you're doing, too. If you ask me what I'm doing, I'll answer if I'm on the balcony. I'm looking at the decorating team finishing everything for tomorrow" Laura replied.

The two were silent for a while until Jeff suddenly asked again about Laura's readiness to marry him tomorrow. They are very young and deciding to get married is not easy. Many things they should consider and not only that, their freedom is also at stake here. After marriage they will be tied to a very sacred wedding rope and they should also be able to put themselves with many things.

"La," called Jeff so gently as if the voice was really real and was nearby at this moment. The night breeze that hit Laura's body was currently cute conveying how long she had missed the man.

"Yes," Java Laura and lost softly after she realized that they were still connected via cell phone.

Jeff had not answered him, he walked outside his room to open a glass balcony that presents a view of the city from a height like this.

"Can I ask you something?"

"What?" asked Laura who was nervous about Jeff's question. He did not know how to explain it at this time if he really missed the figure who had not met him for 2 days.

"Are you sure and really ready to marry me tomorrow?" ask Jeff. He wanted to re-make sure of all this if Laura was to marry him and live life with him later.

"Why question something like this again when our marriage is in sight? Just wait a few hours we've become a couple and you're still asking me if I'm ready or not? What kind of question is that?" laura answered, questioning Jeff's question. He thought it was absurd to ask such a thing when they had taken care of everything and even just had to wait for some more time for their marriage.

"Why keep it now? why not since yesterday?" laura replied because it was exactly what she had in mind at the moment. Really, it felt like he couldn't believe that Jeff asked her something like this again.

"I just feel nervous. I can't believe we're really getting married tomorrow. I'm ready to be born inwardly La, I just want to question it with you. What do I feel right now you feel too?"

"Whatever it is, my decision has been unanimous and I will stick to my stance. What I chose yesterday became my choice. So if you just want to question something like this again I don't want to answer it anymore and better just hang up!" break Up Laura. She accidentally breaks off her call unilaterally because she doesn't want to discuss it again with Jeff who keeps questioning her readiness for tomorrow's wedding.

"What the fuck is this? If you want to ask me if I'm ready or not why just ask now when the wedding is in sight?" Laura kept nagging her phone until she didn't know her mom was behind her.

"Dear,"

"Jeez Mami!" Laura was surprised when someone called her and touched her shoulder. Laura's heart was racing with fear and shock all at once. Dara herself just smiled to see Laura's reaction and response to him.

"Did mommy surprise you?" dara asked who saw Laura was still surprised like that.

"Mami huh! Laura was shocked to know!" Laura was really shocked when her mom came.

"Sorry baby, mom didn't mean to surprise you like that. Mami sees you are too focused on your phone," said Dara because honestly she did not intend to surprise Laura like that. He only came with a brown carved wooden box.

Seeing what her mother brought made Laura curious about what was in the hands of her mother at this time.

"What is mi?" laura asked her mother who immediately gave the wooden box to her with a smile. Seeing her mom smile so sincerely like that made Laura just realized, it was only fitting that her papa was crazy about her mom and so much in love with her. Look, even her smile looks so beautiful.

"Oh baby, that's a gift from mom." Laura opened the box and saw it. When Laura opened it, there was a gold bracelet with a jewel in the middle. It looks old fashioned because of the yellow gold, but still looks beautiful because of its classic design.

"Wristbands?" laura asked her mom and Dara just smiled. It was a gift from him.

"Iru the gold bracelet and that mom bought it with salary money when mom worked first. That's mami's favorite bracelet. Maybe the price is not expensive, but the struggle mami buy it that must be remembered. Mommy has to save up a few months to buy it. This gem on it has the meaning of the power of a woman and mami hope you can be strong to face any trials in your household later dear. Tomorrow you will be a bride, your favorite child, our beautiful baby will all be married and you hope nothing bad will come close to you wherever you are. Mami will continue to pray to God for your health and your happiness dear, because you are the jewel of our hearts."
