First Wife's Last Tears
Choosing a dress
Lisna has not lived in Eagle's apartment since the last two years, precisely after the departure of Erwin's brother. Lisna chose to live alone in a rented house like before. Lisna was also no longer the manager of the Eagle, because the Eagle was no longer working in the entertainment world. So Lisna works in one of the small companies engaged in the interior.
The Eagle never bothered about whatever job Lisna chose, as long as Lisna could still be in her sphere of control, that alone was enough for the Eagle to continue to guard Lisna.
Meanwhile, a miserable life turned on Fauzi and Wulan. They now live in a small rented house with Mama and Fitri. It was in that little house that they lived through a sad and painful day for the past two years.
Fauzi only works as a construction worker, which sometimes there are projects sometimes not. Fitri dropped out of college, while Fatimah just lay weakly waiting for her death to come.
Wulan is really stressed with the life she is living right now. With a little money from Fauzi sometimes not enough even to buy baby diapers and kitchen needs. Every day Wulan fights with Fauzi.
"Yes, find another job that has more pay. I can't afford to live poor like this." Rutuk Wulan while preparing food for her husband.
"You think finding a job is easy, Wulan. I've been trying and the only job I got was a construction worker. You should be grateful that we can still eat, even if only vegetable and salt side dishes."
"You're used to living a life of deprivation like this. I'm not ordinary."
"Eh Wulan, you chose me at the time. Try if you choose your mama and leave me, surely you can live happily."
"You should try to make me happy, because I chose you. But, what? I felt like a burden." Shouted Wulan.
"I never considered you a burden. I'm just asking you to be patient and don't always get angry, complain and yell like this. You think about your mom's feelings too."
Instead of feeling a little cool, Wulan even with fire considering the Word and Yuni off the responsibility to mama and Fitri. Though the Word is also a boy who must be responsible for his mother.
"I don't want to know, tomorrow I have to earn money. I need money to buy Fikri a birthday cake and also her birthday gift."
"Yes I have to do it. So don't get used to spoiling the child." Ledek Fauzi who does not like the way Wulan educates his son by being pampered and obeyed all his will whatever it is and how it is.
Of course, the victim was Fauzi. Inevitably, it can not be there when Fikri already wants to want something.
"I don't think I have a wife and children. As I feel, I have two employers who demand this and that for me." Babe Fauzi is getting frustrated.
It was only Lisna who never made me feel this way. How foolish I was to let go of Lisna just for the sake of a dapper like Wulan.
Fauzi only realized how much Lisna meant and how only Lisna could make her live comfortably. It's all too late. Fauzi had already exchanged the diamond for an ordinary piece of stone. Now he lives with a large chunk of stone that only complicates his life. While the diamond he threw away, now it is getting brighter and placed in the right place as well.

Today Lisna and the Eagle went to take care of their wedding needs. They are currently in a boutique.
"Mbak Lisna can see first, the kebaya model for the event and also the dress for the wedding later."
The boutique owner accompanied Lisna to see various types of kebaya models and wedding dresses in her boutique. While the Eagle just sat while watching his future wife was choosing the dress as she wanted without canpur anyone's hands.
"May I see this model's kebaya, mbak?" Lisna asked as she found a sequined white kebaya that looked simple yet elegant.
"Of course I can."
The owner of the boutique asked his employees to bring the kebaya that Lisna had chosen to the dressing room. Yes, he suggested that Lisna just try it out.
"How, El? Nice no?" Lisna asked embarrassedly.
"You're so pretty, baby." The eagle smiled happily.
"Then for the agreement later I wear this kebaya, mbak."
"Good choice."
"Are you sure you want that kebaya? Don't want to see another model? Asked the Eagle while approaching Lisna.
"Yes, I'm sure. Don't you like it?"
"Like, I like it. But, I just don't want you to regret seeing a kebaya that might be better than you chose." Clearly the Eagle with a very careful heart.
"I have chosen. And I'm sure my choice this time is right. The same goes for when I decided to accept your proposal. Because I'm sure I picked the right one this time." Lisna's whisper managed to make the Eagle flattered.
"If it's halal, I kiss you." Reply The silent whispering eagle made Lisna distance herself from the Eagle.
The boutique owner and his employees smiled anxiously at how sweet the couple was.
"Now it's time to choose a party dress, my dear." Said the Eagle to Lisna.
"Should it?"
"It has to be, baby."
"Just make it and wear some custom clothing, El."
"NO."
"The dress is expensive." Lisna's whisper was in the Eagles' ears which made the Eagles smile with anxiety.
"Sir, please show me a fairy-tale dress, but one that suits a hijab-wearing woman like my wife."
"Well, Mas Eagle."
Some boutique employees showed four choices of dresses from the fairy tale as desired by the Eagle.
"It's a cinderella dress, if it's a yasmin-style dress, and it's Aril the mermaid's dress and this one's a snow white dress."
Lisna glanced alternately at the pretty dress dress.
"For a fairy tale wedding theme, most customers choose Yasmin dresses anyway. But I think that's more suitable for Lisna, more for cinderella anyway." Explained her.
Lisna's eyes have also since just stared at the soft blue dress ala cinderella. The choice fell on the dress because he felt he was also a lucky Cinderella chosen by a rich man like a prince.
"Mmm, I want this one." Lisna touched Cinderella's dress.
The eagle immediately asked Lisna to try on the dress. And when he saw Lisna wearing the dress, Eagle was again fascinated by the beauty of his future wife.
