Forced Marriage Alea
PPA 142# Late Application

Ravka took Alea to the last seat of the 5.8 Undersea Restaurant. Not many chairs were placed there. There are only about 10 tables with two chairs facing each other.

Alea's eyes could not be separated from the walls of the restaurant building that showed a thriving coral reef. Presenting beautiful beauty with small fish that go back and forth. This restaurant was built with a natural coral landscape around the restaurant building as an experiment.

Unexpectedly, it turns out that many coral reefs are successfully growing and attracting marine animals making it a home for them to live in. After that the coral reef block was made more widespread, until finally the restaurant seemed to blend with the surrounding sea. Of course it further beautifies the underwater scenery seen from inside the restaurant.

"Mas, this is really cool. I love it," Alea said with a happy twinkle on her face, "It's a special dinner that I've never imagined in a lifetime" Alea continued excitedly.

"I'm cool if you like" said Ravka, grabbing Alea's fingers into her hands, bringing the fingers to her lips for a kiss.

Alea's face blushed for a moment. The multicolored fish that swerved next to him, no longer attracted attention when the action of the husband made his heart beat unnaturally. Ravka grabbed his wife's free hand and took both hands into her hands. Sends a sting that drains the entire pulse.

"There's something I want to say, Al," said Ravka, trying to contain the nervous feeling that made her voice tremble slightly.

Ravka swears in the heart as she tries to neutralize the heartbeat that is increasingly racing faster. Making the words he had spoken repeatedly, faltering in the throat. He has faced business opponents and investors dozens of times in order to win a big tender. Not once did he feel afraid. Even the first nervousness facing big investors, there was no comparison with the nervousness that ambushed him this time.

The cold-handed man in the business world, always showed his confidence arrogantly. Ordain yourself as a reliable businessman who cannot be underestimated. However, this time, I don't know where all the guts have gone. His lips were cuddled when he was about to start the word. Making it tegugu, up to thousands of questions swirled in the eyes of the girl.

"Please," a waiter delivers an appetizing appetizer.

Pause a word that is stuck

in the throat, it cannot be heard properly.

They enjoy an appetizer arranged in such a way as a variety of coral reefs in the ocean. Alea ate a special menu called Diver Scallops, white-colored shells with a slightly chewy texture are served with apricots and alomnd vinaigrettes arranged in serving plates made as similar as possible to coral reefs in the ocean.

"Al, I have something to say" said Ravka, looking serious after Alea placed her cutlery on a plate sign that she had finished her meal.

It did not take long for the couple to spend their meal which was served in small portions.

"What's up, Mom? You make me curious" Alea said with a frown.

"Would you be mine for ever and ever? Holding hands until we grow old together," whispered Ravka softly as she stared intently at the flabbergasted face before her.

"Live with me until we close our eyes. Together forever, build our little family with our children later," Ravka continued.

Ravka's eyes still nailed his wife's teary eyes. Staring at him intensely while sending out all the feelings that burst through the seething shade of the eyes.

Alea's mouth could not speak. She did not expect to get the profound expression that her husband had made. Making his tongue mute with eyes almost spilled the happy feeling that filled the recesses of the soul.

Just as he was about to begin the word, two divers were seen swimming towards the glass wall next to Alea's seat.

The two then unfurled a banner before Alea exactly. A banner that made the teardrops of the ayu girl melt unstoppably as it permeated the word inscribed on top of the banner.

"BE A MOTHER TO MY CHILDREN"

Alea raised both hands and landed them in front of their lips. Covering the mouth that could not be clenched, meaning the writing that was swayed by the ripples of water that were plastered before him.

Ravka slipped a small box wrapped in blue velvet dongker from her pocket. Opened the box slowly and thrust it before Alea. The nervousness was still clearly reflected in Ravka's eyes with a voice still heard vibrating.

"Our marriage doesn't happen because we want it to. Compulsion keeps us trapped in this bond. But now I want you to be my wife forever. I want to do it right. Start something new the right way. Let's just say it's my late proposal" Ravka said solemnly.

That solemnity had touched Alea's heart until the two hazel beads could not stop her increasingly loud cries. The shock that ambushed her, made Alea sculpt.

"Come on, brother, until when are you going to make Mas Ravka wait? Just accept it," Kania's voice snuck in Alea's ear from her back.

Alea turned her head watching her cousin's sister already standing behind her. Accompanied by Ravka's friends who also cheered him to welcome Ravka's late proposal but it feels sweet to touch the heart.

Alea did not realize since when they had all crowded the restaurant and witnessed what Ravka was doing. She turned back to face her husband who was still waiting with a questioning look.

"I want to, Mas. Of course I'm willing to accompany you in the joys and sorrows of my entire life." Alea nodded vigorously to the point of doing so repeatedly.

A smile adorned Ravka's lips with a tearful look. Alea's fingers were drawn and a diamond ring was placed on Alea's ring finger. All this time they have never used a couple's cinci after marriage. Only a marriage with a procession of ijab qabul is not very embodied by the girl's family. Even with the Ravka family who only feel that marrying them is a form of responsibility, but with compulsion. So that the thought of things beyond the validity of a marriage becomes no longer important.

There was a rumbling pat inside the restaurant. Welcomed with a merdua sound that brought a ballad from an old band, Platters entitled With this rings, added shahdu atmosphere. The restaurant that actually only accommodates sixteen visitors, now there are also sixteen people in it. Ravka and Alea's entourage and Dimas organize everything Ravka needs to realize the romantic honeymoon she has designed, along with a small music group that perfects her rather late proposal.

With this ring I' promise I'll always love you, always love you

a piece of lyrics from the song that accompanied Ravka's proposal seemed to be a verse that represented the man's heart to Alea. A promise he believed would be timeless. Together wading through life full of twists and turns with the accompanying girl will add color to her life.
