Enemy, But Married
4. Reception and First Kiss
Everything is not a dream. Everything is true and Lita was exhausted from having to undergo a grand wedding reception attended by thousands of invited guests.
Almost all the invited guests are. From business people, officials, even artists. Some of them also find Lita can not speak Indonesian because it seems, they are indeed from other countries. Many times, Lita is made to tremble because she is too nervous and is not used to dealing with important people.
For entertainment at the reception itself is also not canned. Arkana and family hire homeland artists and artists from abroad, and increasingly enliven the atmosphere. Lita should be happy because after all, the marriage she got was a dream marriage. Everything is luxurious, lively, and really special. Good in terms of place, food, and entertainment. Even the invited guests seemed very happy just because they could be part of the event there. However, Lita's brain is already chaotic because throughout togetherness even when all their family members ride to accompany the bride to the pelaminan, Lilyn is completely invisible stem nose. Lilyn really disappeared like swallowed by the earth.
“Arkana, please, .. I don't want to, and I can't.” Lita is busy shaking her head and ignoring Arkana's two hands who are ready to guide her up to the stage to dance like any other couple.
On stage, it was not only Dara and Fean who had danced with Lita's sister. Because their father was there too. Everyone smiled at them and waited for them to take part on the stage with the other couple. Today, they are party owners. Those who have worn white bridal clothes, are the King and Queen there.
“Everything is waiting. The MCs are tired of calling us by name,” Arkana scolds while looking annoyed at Lita who wears a white wedding dress. Honestly, at their wedding reception, Lita looks much more beautiful than when they undergo a kabul ijab procession. Arkana to not sincerely let his wife be seen by others let alone other men because this time, his wife is really beautiful.
Late in the evening at their grand wedding reception, Lita wears a long-sleeved wedding dress with a luxurious ballgown skirt, wrapped in small floral brocades decorated with beads on it. The dress has complicated details covering almost all parts of the dress, but the fact is actually a luxury for Lita who wears it. Lita's beauty becomes emanated elegant as well as luxurious. Including the fact that Lita's hair is now modern-day shouldered decorated with a small crown in the middle without bangs. The appearance of Lita becomes most prominent because of it especially with the presence of white diamond jewelry that complements. In fact, the reason Arkana is upset is that Arkana can't wait to dance with Lita. Arkana wants to take advantage of the opportunity of the dance agenda later, to start having his wife.
Lita sighed deeply, feeling inexhaustible towards Arkana even though the young man knew the reason as of now. “Lilyn, Cana. Where is lilyn? From before Ijab kabul we, he's gone. She must have been beaten down and even frustrated because you married me.”
“My people have found him and they are with him.” Arkana.
“Is your speech trustworthy?” lirih Lita made sure, she was still staring at Arkana full of doubt.
Upset, Arkana hastily pulled out her phone from the side pocket of her white trousers in harmony with the wedding dress Lita wore. “She's gone with her friends. Satisfied!”
Feeling unsatisfied because it is a photo on an Arkana phone, for him less clear, Lita deliberately took over the phone. After observing, it was a photo of Lilyn with her friends at a nightclub.
Arkana hurriedly took back her phone, then forcefully grabbed both of Lita's hands. This time Lita according to though doubts still seem so strong from the girl he had married.
“Your people are really there to take care of Lilyn, right?” lirih Lita who let the two Arkana aides hold both sides of her dress that is indeed large and some of it until it falls to the floor.
The lights on the stage suddenly turned off when Arkana and Lita finally arrived. The two aides who had originally helped Lita carry both sides of her dress which had some of them falling across the floor, also hurriedly stepped down. All eyes seemed hypnotized by the togetherness of Lita and Arkana when the two lovebirds were still mediocre. The two just stood face to face, which Lita looked very awkward and just looked at Arkana as if not brave.
It's me being nervous tense like this, huh? It felt really unclear, and Kana, ...why did she see me like that? The way she looked at me, as if, she loved me so much and she also wanted so badly to have me, the inner Lita who chose not to stare at Arkana, let alone, just now, the lights were on them and they were the only focus of the lighting there.
“Gosh ...,” Og Lita resigned. He immediately felt an indistinct cold heat when Arkana finally began to cling to him. Lita chose to close her eyes, while both hands moved hesitantly between silence or clutching Arkana back.
“How does it feel to escape, but be saved by the person you left behind?” lirih Arkana while holding Lita's head. He sniffed inside Lita's head then smiled in satisfaction when Lita's right hand finally punched her.
“Saved what? Please correct your speech!” nagel Lita whispering.
“Ah ... The truth is, how does it feel to run away, but instead ask for help to the person you should have left behind? I see, don't you?” Arkana deliberately mocked and this time he laughed triumphantly next to Lita's ear where the woman also punched him back in the stomach.
When Arkana finally held her laughter, that second also the atmosphere that was only decorated with a soft romantic song titled Beautiful In White, became also colored by cheers and applause.
“Kana, ... What's up?” lirih Lita who gradually put her hands on the shoulders of Arkana. He observed around because he was very curious, why the atmosphere was suddenly crowded even just now, until there was a whistle in order.
“They are just too happy to see our togetherness,” Arkana assured.
Lita stared doubtfully at Arkana. “I couldn't believe you more, after what happened. Five years, ... These five years I've been lied to completely with you. Jeez, if there was no one else, it's over you I'm on fire!” Because now alone, Lita's two hands have been gripping the two arms of Arkana are sturdy until instead of Arkana who is in pain, even Lita who became busy grimacing.
“Nothing. I am a pijitin. We can even leave early for the first night,” whispered Arkana deliberately flirting again. This time he increasingly tighten his embrace while continuing to slowly follow the rhythm of the song because after all, they have to dance like other couples.
Not to be outdone, Lita hurriedly counterattacked. He trampled on Arkana's legs full of energy. The spirit of four-five he did it even though when Arkana finally attacked him through a friendly kiss on his lips, Lita became unable to do anything. Lita's world was suddenly silent, spinning more slowly, and completely strange. He should have been angry, but he only pushed Arkana in the chest for a moment before retaliating because Arkana said, “Lilyn is in danger if I pull my men and let her.”
Lita realizes Arkana has taken advantage of Lilyn's departure to defend her. The man who had become her husband had deliberately set her up. But despite everything, why does Lita also enjoy her kiss agenda and Arkana? Lita is reluctant to end it and hopes that their kiss never ends or at least lasts a little longer, although when finally their gazes meet with the kiss that also ends, Lita really feels very embarrassed. Hurriedly Lita lowered her head avoiding Arkana's gaze as if trying to thank him. Lita thought, the reason Arkana wanted to say thank you was none other than for their first kiss that they had just directed and seemed to be quite old even though it did not take more than three minutes.
