Don't Call Me an Actor!

It's been a few days Rika, Reyhan's mother has been on a hunger and drinking strike. Rika deliberately does this in order for Reyhan to accept her match with Luna. He launched this plan according to the advice given by Anita, the mother of Luna. Rika is too ambitious to have equal rights with her family. However, Reyhan must be willing to accept the arranged marriage he has planned.

"Ma, please open the door! Mama must eat," Reyhan knocked on Rika's room door, his left hand carrying a tray containing a bowl of porridge and a glass of water.

"You don't want to eat before you're going to be betrothed to Luna!" Shouted Rica from within.

"We can talk about this all right, Ma. Please open the door first!" Reyhan still did not give up on persuading the woman who had given birth to him.

"What the hell is it, brother? Are you not satisfied with making your mom like this?" Winie spray when opening the door of the room that Reyhan knocks on. Coincidentally Winie was inside Rika's room.

"You were a little girl, Winie, but your hobby of pumping mama continues," Reyhan continued with a sour face, he immediately entered Rika's room. Leaving behind Winie who was nagging annoyed.

Reyhan sat himself on the edge of the bed, looking Rika is leaning her body on the bed rest. His face was very pale, his lips slightly whitened. Reyhan is increasingly concerned about his mother's condition.

"Come, Ma! Eat first to get sick," Reyhan scooped up the porridge and brought the spoon closer to Rika's lips.

"Mama don't want to eat ! Mama wants you to marry Luna!" Rika threw her face away while having her chest closed.

Reyhan's head was throbbing from dizziness. How else would Reyhan talk to his mother that he didn't want to be betrothed? But he also did not want to see his mother hunger strike continuously. Does Reyhan have to accept this match? Reyhan is in a dilemma. On one hand he loved Nayla very much, but on the other hand he did not want to torture his own mother until a hunger strike. Moreover, Reyhan knew that his mother had a history of chronic gastric pain.

"Please, Ma! I love her with Nayla. Please bless me with Nayla, Ma!" Reyhan said with sadness.

"Let's eat first! Later mama's stomach pain gets worse," Reyhan still does not want to give up to force Rika to eat.

"Let mama die, Rey!! You're more picky than your mom. Yes you are Rey! The mother who gave birth to you. Your nine months in your mama's belly. But now you're more picky than mama!" Rika was crying which instantly made Reyhan's heart sliced. Reyhan could not see his mother crying.

"Ma.." Reyhan's voice began to weaken, he was already confused how to persuade his mother to eat. Reyhan seems to lose the word to convince his mother that Nayla is the good girl he loves so much.

Rika and Winie looked at each other, they smiled cynically and coded each other. Reyhan's playbook must marry Luna instead of Nayla. The point!

"Rey, Mama's old. For now, please fulfill your request, son! Mama wants you to marry Luna. She's a good girl, Mama's prayer is only for you and Luna. Do you want to be a bad boy? Do you want to live with Nayla but there is no Ridho from Mama? Do you want your life not to be Rey's blessing?" Rika clenched her arms in front of Reyhan.

"Sir Rey, did Rey have to see rich mama gini? Mama until please get rich gini. Mama tuh dear sister so rich mama gini. Mama wants big sister to live with a nice rich lady, sister Luna," Cicit Winie with an annoyed face.

Reyhan seemed to be thinking, his heart and mind were now clashing. Where should he fight? Does Reyhan have to keep Nayla and set aside the blessing of his family? Or Reyhan accepted this match but lost the woman he had loved? Reyhan looked at Rika and Winie's faces in turn. Reyhan really could not bear to see the sight that hurt his eyes. Rika's pale face seemed to imply a plea to him.

Is it by marrying Luna that Reyhan can repay all of her mother's services? Who already conceived her in a weakened state and gave birth to her at the cost of life? Does Reyhan have to make his mother happy? By marrying a woman he doesn't love? Suddenly an idea flashed through Reyhan's mind.

"Alright, Ma. Rey agrees to this matchmaking," Reyhan gives up in the end.

Rika and Wini smiled happily, they immediately hugged Reyhan.

"Why not from yesterday, brother?" Winie exclaimed enthusiastically, he patted her brother on the back. Then his eyes darted towards Rika, they smiled at each other meaningfully. His mission will finally succeed.

"Nay, I'm sorry! But I have to accept this match. I love you, but I love my family too. I can't be a bad boy. I'm afraid my life didn't get rido mamah. I had to accept the wishes of my mother and family. But don't worry, Nay! After marrying Luna, I'll show you that I'm unhappy. I will convince my family and divorce Luna later and come back with you! " Reyhan's determination in his heart.

This afternoon, Nayla cleaned a glass cabinet that contained hundreds of wedding shoes. The gallery is so quiet today. Nayla was bored, she took the initiative to clean the glass cabinets in the gallery. In contrast to his other coworkers, they prefer to play their phones rather than having to clean glass cabinets that have a very large size and length.

After cleaning the glass cabinets, Nayla took the wedding dresses that had been worn at the reception yesterday, she collected them and handed them to the laundry workers who had worked with the gallery.

"Neng, take a break! Cape from earlier work continues," said Siska as a senior in the gallery.

All his friends like Nayla so much, he is a warm and diligent person. His speech was also very polite. He also doesn't like to hang out with other friends. Everyone in the gallery felt comfortable working with Nayla.

The nature of Nayla is always talked about by word of mouth, until Nia, the mother of Aditya (owner WO) is very curious about the figure of Nayla. Aditya is the owner of the Wedding Organizer, he built this WO for his beloved mother. Aditya focuses on working on companies in the advertising field. But occasionally he went to the gallery to take Nia to see the state of the gallery.

This afternoon Nia visited the gallery with her son Aditya, all the employees who were playing his cell phone panicked it was not clogged. They immediately stood up from the position of the mager and immediately took whatever items were near them. There are those who pretend to hold a bell, some pretend to tidy up a wedding dress, some also clean the table of former customers even though it is clean and tidy.

Nia saw all the employees were playing mobile phones, but she deliberately did not reprimand him. Nia and Aditya pretend not to know. They understand, besides this is free time, no customer visits the gallery. Nia's attention turned to Nayla who was removing the wedding dress from the model. Nayla looked so overwhelmed because the wedding dress was so heavy.

Nia smiled at the young girl who was so focused on her work, she immediately approached Nayla who was struggling with a model and wedding dress.

"Nay?" Call Nia friendly. Aditya follows Nia from behind.

"Bu Nia, Mr. Adit. I'm sorry I didn't notice your arrival!" Nayla said awkwardly, she felt bad for not greeting her boss first.

"It's okay, you're busy. Inenya exists?" Nia asked wryly, her eyes tracing through the entire gallery. He is looking for Ine the MUA professional who works at this WO. With her magical hand, Ine can make a bride pangling a Barbie tub.

"Teh Ine hasn't come home yet, ma'am. Today she has a bridal makeup schedule in the Sartika Hall building,"' explained Nayla kindly.

"It's a pity that mother really wants to be decorated by Ine," said Nia with a disappointed look.

"We're going to the salon, Mah! Mama's saloon is in Dago," Aditya tries to comfort his mother.

"Well, after this, you want the arisan, Dit. Long time to go to Dago," snorted Nia with annoyance.

"Let Nay be an ornamental, Mom. Nay can do it but it won't be as good as Ine's tea," Nayla tries to offer.

Nia was glad not to play, all this time she was so curious about the figure of Nayla. It's getting to know Nayla even further. If Nayla fits him, it's not impossible that Nia chose him as a potential ghost ?

"Byeah, Nay. Mother again hurriedly," Nia smiled. While Aditya did not budge with the conversation of the two women in front of him.

Aditya notices Nayla who is focusing on blending make-up into her mother's face deftly. Coincidentally Nayla is also good at applying makeup, thanks to the knowledge she got from YouTube by self-taught. Nayla also often notices Ine who is decorating the bride, she is also often asked Ine to be the latest model of the wedding dress. Inevitably Nayla has been very often dressed as a real bride.

"Done, Mom. The lipstick, huh?" Nayla said Seraya dressed the lisptik to Nia's thin lips carefully.

Nia noticed Nayla who was focusing on her, Nia felt very anxious when she saw Nayla's pliable eyelashes move cutely as Nayla blinked her eyes. She wants a daughter, but destiny says something else. Nia was given only 2 sons, Adit and his younger brother Adam.

"Thank you, Nay. Nice make-up Flawless," praised Nia proudly, she looked at herself in the mirror with a very satisfied smile.

"Together, Mom."

Adit glanced at Nayla, no words coming from his mouth. Adit is indeed a man who is difficult to be amazed by someone. He is very apathetic to the surrounding, but if it is near Adit is a warm person.

As Adit stared at Nayla's face, Nayla looked at him as well. This time they looked at each other, Adit quickly ended his gaze and threw away his face.

"Why am I so nervous ?" Maki Adit in her heart.
