Friendship with Forbidden Love
Weddings
Galih was still staring at the glass on Nadifa's dresser, wearing a clean white shirt that had not been worn for a long time, wearing a black suit and pants this time without a tie accompanying her neck.
His face was sad today, no joy had appeared there, heavy to conclude a line of smiles widened on both of his cheeks.
He felt he was tidy, then he went down with a slow step down the stairs, he saw Nadifa was still busy in the kitchen to prepare their breakfast.
"Darling!" call Galih
Nadifa turned her head quickly with an apron still enveloping her.
"Tumben clock as soon as you're tidy, I don't think you're bathing yet" Ledek Nadifa who still smells of onions.
Galih just smiled without answering, he kept his wife who was cooking from the table bench.
Nadifa also walked to the dining table carrying a cooked chicken fried Bihun and again brought a glass of milk for Galih.
"Cock tumben wear White shirt, what event is there ?"
The question is more sinister than the whipping of a thunderbolt in the middle of the dark sky.
The more he felt guilty, the more he was tormented.
"This is Friday, usually you use Batik Mas," Nadifa reminded, if Galih was forgetting the day.
"Yes I remember baby, it's okay I was just going to wear a shirt today" Galih replied beginning to reassure Nadifa.
"Eat the full darling." Nadifa poured fried vermicelli under Galih.
Suddenly Galih hugged and embraced his wife, he cried, then kissed Nadida from his forehead, cheeks, and lips and said thousands of words of apology flowing in his heart.
"Hey, Mom. Why are you ?" Nadifa was surprised by Galih's attitude like this, Galih is a very Strong man he rarely cries.
His reddened face endured the pain and tightness in his chest.
"I'm still sad not to take you on vacation to New York,"
"Then until nangis gini si mas, it's nothing Mas, I've forgotten the same problem," Nadifa laughed.
"Here we eat, finish your breakfast,"
Instead of obeying the order, he was getting less and less powerful with his toughest day.

Now Galih has been at Gita's house to hold betel's marriage contract. Seen already there Mr. Penghulu, Mr. Wali and both witnesses.
Even more surprising is Dendi as a Witness from the Galih party.
At first Dendi was disappointed, but he finally understood the condition of Galih and Gita at this time, from earlier Dendi did not want to talk stale with Gita, he was sick of not wanting to see her face at all.
He memorized this must be the rotten plan of the Gita as he believed that it was Gita who harmed Nadifa.
Galih still fixated on sculpting quietly limp and helpless, he seemed to want to run away from this marriage.
But he recalled that there was a baby who needed recognition from him.
"Can it start now?" asked Mr. Penghulu, immediately Galih recalled when he was holding a marriage contract with Nadifa 5 years ago, his tears welled up again.
Dendi understood the feelings now felt by his friend and boss. In contrast to Gita's face which kept emitting an aura of happiness flowing down her face.
10 Minutes later the Akad event was over, the sound of the SAH adorning their ears was spoken by the witnesses, after Dendi finished, he immediately raised his legs without asking permission first to Galih and Gita.
Galih just silently felt guilty and Gita just careless no matter what.
"All right, only I can give you a child, I will always be with you lovingly raising our children" Gita said in her heart.
