The natural aroma of the splashing rain that fell on dry land really spread this morning at the residence of the Artanegara and Hadnan families. The sky was dark with strong wind. Everyone was praying for the rain to recede quickly. Because the marriage of their extended family is about to begin.
A week had already passed from their two applications. And exactly, at 09:00 this morning, Ammar plans to shake hands with Papa Galih, to hijab the qabul of his biological daughter, Ganaya. The woman he was going to make his only wife, was blessed and loved all the time.
As per Gana's request. That today will only be a marriage contract. He wants to undergo this sacred procession solemnly. Just want to be witnessed by the nuclear family, very close relatives and their friends.
And for the reception that Ammar wants to title spectacularly, it will take another month. Why one month? Because Ganaya asked for it. The woman is not ready for media exposure.
Married to the crown prince Artanegara, will definitely make Ganaya become trending on social media. Moreover, rumors of marriage annulment from the two have been smelled in various domains of gossip.
Everyone knew that Ganaya would marry Adri, and Ammar would marry Asyifa. But the truth is, none of that happened. So heartbreaking.
All of these things, will definitely be hot topics for days. When the crown princess Hadnan, changed husband-to-be suddenly in her H-2 wedding.
Gana still had to heal his wounds, nurture his consciousness, that at this time only Ammar should he force to continue to reign in his heart.
Even though it feels so hard. Because until the second he was in makeup and wearing kebaya, clear water in his eyes continued to flock down to wet the cheeks.
The edge of his heart hurts. His body trembled, a moody feeling struck back. Want to curse and blame Adri, it feels free. The man managed to make Gana's life ruined. The love that the man placed in Gana's heart, was still too strong and seemed to be getting stronger.
"You're sure, aren't you, son?" ask Mama whose steps just arrived at the room. The woman stood behind the chair that Gana was sitting on. Looked at Gana's face from the mirror. She stroked the two arms of the girl who had been wiping her tears with tissue.
Ganaya was unable to look at her mother's face. He slightly nodded and then nodded. Mama sighed, she knew exactly what her daughter was feeling. Marrying an unloved person is painful, but marrying someone who has lied to us, even if we love them. It still hurt us. It's just a thin difference.
Mama turned her steps to stand in front of her daughter who was still bowed. Then lock Gana's body to get into her stomach. Gana returned the hug tightly with a loud cry.
The room was already deserted from the fairies. So Mama can calm down, if the child wants to spill the emotions and sadness that is still entrenched in his heart. Because in another hour and two, Gana is no longer able to fight the fate of her life. Ammar will soon make himself a wife before God and all men.
"Cry, Son. Spill everything."
Ganaya continued to sob with both shoulder bases that shook violently. His cry broke, but was unable to shed the foundation and expensive powder that had been smeared on his face. The famous and expensive fairies that Ammar paid, were able to make the woman beautiful many times over in this day.
"Mom knows what you're feeling. Forcing marriage for a few reasons. Mama's too hard for you to lie to, Gana."
Gana stopped crying. He was suddenly silent, although the grip of his hand was still tightly holding the kebaya cloth that his mother was wearing. He remained static laying his head on Mama's stomach. Unwilling to look up, she was ashamed of being known.
"Do you want to cancel all this? There's still two hours left." the question Mama Difa asked Gana, and wished her daughter's answer was no.
Ganaya did not answer, but with a bundle of his head it had already answered that he did not want to. Relieved Mama, she knew Gana wouldn't be so stupid as to call off the wedding today just because she still loved Adri.
"Mama knew all along that Ammar liked you. Tease you and often ask you to be her lover. But you always refuse."
Ganaya pulled her head from her mother's stomach. And stared clearly at the bead of the eyes of the woman who had been pregnant with it for nine months. The woman knew it. But can only be silent.
Mama Difa still smiled and nodded.
"Mama knows. Know enough and know very well. Especially when her tears welled up when watching Adri pairing an engagement ring in your day. With a great soul, he releases you to belong to another man, just because he wants to see you happy." a subtle slap with just such words pierces the niche of Ganaya's heart.
Gana. He realized, this morning he again started a mistake. Crying Adri who he still loves but has hurt and cursed the marriage he did not want with Ammar but soon it will happen.
"It is better to be loved wholeheartedly by someone we have not yet loved because we can still learn to love him. Rather than staying in love, people have intentionally hurt our feelings in the first place. And what's more, Adri already belongs to another woman."
"Take off Adri, Gana. Mama knows it's hard for you. Even you yourself have not treated your wounds properly, but have to override the wound with a new incision. But right now, your best mate is Ammar. The man you still have a hard time accepting, but in God's Throne, only the man's name can be with you, son."
Ganaya's heart rippled. The fine hairs on the nape of the neck just brushed because they heard the sentence that Mama gave.
Only Ammar was in Allah's Arsh for Ganaya.
"Mama sure, Gana must love him as your marriage will continue. Let go of Adri, explain what he has done. That way your heart will be calm and serene."
"If love is stirred again and makes you want to return to him, then remember his wife and children whom you have saved his happiness, by not entering into their lives, while bringing your love to Adri."
Gana nodded her head slowly. He hugged his mother's stomach. "Gana's prayers are to forget Adri and love Ammar, Mah. Will try as hard and hard as you can."
Mama nodded in a smile. He gently rubbed Gana's back.
"Aamiin, Son. Mama always pray for Mama's kids."
Gana hugged her mother's stomach.
"Will you go to sleep first? Mama knew all night you couldn't sleep. There's two hours left. Let your heart and mind relax. Usually when you cry and brought to sleep, after that it will feel better."
Gana accepts an offer from her mother. Then Mama Difa took Ganaya to be taken to bed. "But Mama temenin Gana bobo is here huh." - the great-grandson.
"Yes, Son. Mama temenin."
Mom sat in bed. And Gana put her head in the lap of the mother. He hugged his stomach again and began to close both eyes. The woman felt more and more calm, when the delicate caress from her Mama's hand did not stop at all.
"At least, even if you lose one love, you can still get a lot of love from us and Ammar, son." said Mama then kissed her late daughter's temple.
