INFINITE LOYALTY

INFINITE LOYALTY
ETHAN AND VIOLA'S WEDDING


On the way home Riani and Radja walk full of silence, there is no chatter at all between them, Radja who intends to take Riani up to the resort where she is staying, initially rejected by Riani, who wants to take her to the resort, but because Radja is a bit pushy, finally Rianipun just silence and just say yes with a nod.


It didn't take long, they both finally arrived at the resort lobby.


"You are here take care of yourself, Dek, I will fly back to Jakarta tomorrow afternoon"


"Well, you are also careful" replied Riani while kissing the back of Radja's hand as a form of respect for a wife to her husband, but Radja quickly pulled Riani's hand and hugged his wife's body.


Riani just kept quiet and let Radja embrace her, because after all she is still legitimate as his wife and only halal if Radja embraced her.


After a few minutes Radja let go of her embrace, and before leaving she gently kissed Riani's head and forehead.


"I'm saying goodbye, I love you my wife..." Say Radja with teary eyes.


"Be careful, sir..." Riani replied while trying to endure the turmoil of her rumbling heart holding back the mixed feelings of pain, sadness and anger.


"Yes, I will definitely be careful, Assalamualikum..."


"Wa'alaikum hail..."


Riani only lowered her head as Radja stroked her head slowly again, then she did not flinch as Radja left to leave her out of the resort lobby.


Only his eyes were staring at Radja who was walking away until it disappeared from his sight.


Riani turned her limp body, then walked down the hallway leading to her room.


Without him realizing there was a pair of eyes watching him, a mysterious figure with the same pair of eyes, always stalking and following Riani.


.............


In the evening Riani passed just silent in the room, because tomorrow she had to wake up at six in the morning, to attend and accompany the bride as her escort.


Just now Riani gets a message on her phone from Viola, and tells her that Viola and Ethan are hosting their parents' dinner.


Even Viola sent a photo of their dinner atmosphere at one of the fancy restaurants.


But when he looked more carefully at the photo would be surprised Riani because in the photo appeared a middle-aged couple whose faces Riani knows, they were smiling happily hugging Viola's shoulders.


" Is Viola the second child of the two of them? but as far as I'm concerned they do have two children but all boys..." Riani whispered in her heart.


"Klings!" the voice of the incoming message read again, Riani again read the message from Viola.


"They're my future in-laws, brother, what do you think?" viola asked, sending back the second photo to Riani, he was very surprised, his heart seemed to be broken apart by a single shot that hit the target.


His hand shook so much that the phone he was holding fell on following the body of Riani who sat down without any more energy.


"There's no way Ethan's alive...Maybe he's Ethan's half-sister he used to tell you about, but there's no way...His name and face could be very similar to her, What is the mystery behind all this? I'm really confused..." Said Riani while squeezing the hair on her head with her face that looked extremely stressed.


Until last night Riani could not sleep, her eyes were open to rethink the photo of the viola...


............


Until the morning Riani still can not sleep.


Finally Riani decided to immediately take a bath and take ablution water, she felt it was time to complain to the owner of life.


After he finished praying the prayers and metered until dawn showed his light, Riani immediately went on to dhuha.


No matter how long he had not prayed Dhuha, he had been too busy with work and problems in his life, to forget the existence of God, the creator of nature.


"Yes Allah...Forgive the sins of your servant...Give me your way out and your guidance on this matter..." Stimulate Riani in her sobs full of pain.


After her crying subsided, Riani immediately changed the special bridesmaid dress that Viola gave her.


The shirt she received from the boutique that was delivered to the receptionist when she returned to the resort with Radja last night.


After wearing a shirt and a little hair styling and thin makeup on her face, Riani immediately went out to the bridal room that was right next to her room.


When he knocked on Viola's room door, it turned out that the one who opened the door was Ethan, but Riani was shocked to death.


"Come on, Viola's waiting for you..." Ethan said with his flat face.


"Well, excuse me..." Riani replied as she barged in, making Ethan shift to the side giving way to Riani.


When Riani came in, it turned out that there were three other bridesmaids, she immediately joined them.


"So you've come, let me introduce you to my friends..." Said Viola welcoming Riani with his happy face.


Then he introduced one of his friends.


"Honey, I went back to my room first, the groomsmen have come and gathered in my room" said Ethan, at a glance his eyes glanced at Riani then kissed the soft forehead of Viola who was soon to be his wife.


Seeing that scene, Riani's heart ached, wanting it to feel like she found the answer to her feelings.


.............


Viola looked beautiful and graceful with her wedding dress.



There was a knock from the outside, Riani immediately opened the door, looking at the door of the middle-aged male figure with a wise smile.


"Darling, are you ready?" ask the man who turned out to be Viola's father.


"Viola is ready for reward, let's get out now..." Viola replied with a special note.


"Congratulations, son, you will soon be Madam Ethan, be a good and obedient wife..." Advice from father.


"Yes Pah..." Answer Viola haru.


"Now you are no longer Papah's responsibility, so one day take care of your family, take care of your children and your husband..." Said the father with a quivering voice and the cry of his day.


"Viola will definitely do papah's advice..." Viola replied while hugging his father, then the father kissed his daughter's forehead.


The atmosphere felt throughout the room, Riani was also touched by the affection of the Father and child, Riani, understandably he since adolescence has not been able to feel the affection of a father anymore because the father left for eternity because of an accident.


"Let's go to the altar, your wedding is about to begin" said the father.


"Yes pah, come on..." With the spoiled nature of a child, he walked while holding his father, sometimes Viola fragrant to the father.


"Viola nervous pah..." Viola said on the sidelines of his path.


"Jalan slowly, son, it's normal that if you are nervous, all brides will definitely feel the same way.


Finally everyone walked out to the park where the wedding was held.


Arriving in the park, a view is seen with a path lined with colorful flowers to the altar which is also beautifully decorated with flowers.



On the right and left of the guest chair, the invitation looks a wedding cake with a beautiful and elegant shape.




With the grace of Viola who was accompanied by his father and behind him accompanied by bridesmaids including Riani walked towards the Altar, in front of the altar was waiting for the priest and Ethan who stood there smilingly welcomed Viola.


Seeing Viola and Ethan's happy smiles, Riani thought they were indeed worthy of happiness.


After Viola's father handed his daughter over to Ethan, the father immediately sat in the front seat.


Now is the time for the two brides to be guided by the priest to say the holy pledge of marriage.


.............


Finally, the promise of marriage can be done by the two brides smoothly by ending the signing of the wedding letter and applause of the invited guests who were happy to watch their wedding.


When they put on each other's wedding rings, Riani who was appointed as the wedding ring bearer for the groom, he advanced towards the bride carrying the tray with a small box containing the wedding ring.


As Riani approaches the bride, she hands the ring to Viola, without her noticing Ethan looking at her.


After Viola took the ring Riani back to where it was, but when Viola was about to put the ring on Ethan's finger, Ethan's hand shook violently until the ring fell down towards Riani.


Riani swiftly took the ring and she intended to return it to Viola, but soon Ethan prevented it from taking the ring from Riani's hand and directly pinned it on his own finger, after that Ethan whispered something into Viola's ear which made him nod a sign of understanding.


Until the small incident passed and continued to the next session, namely the throwing of a bridal bouquet and cutting of wedding cakes.


During the flower throwing session the bridesmaids are obliged to take part in the fight for the bouquet of flowers thrown by the bride.


It was there that Riani met Teddy who was also the groomsman for Ethan.


Riani and Teddy smiled at each other while getting ready for the scramble to catch a bouquet of flowers from Viola.


When the flowers are thrown, boisterous fight over the bouquet of flowers ensues.


Until finally, the flower fell in the hands of Teddy, who was immediately given to Riani while kneeling.


Seeing what Teddy did, Riani was shocked but soon he received flowers from Teddy to avoid problems later if he refused the flowers.


A boisterous applause was heard, accidentally Riani's eyes caught the expression of Ethan's face that looked very sad, making Riani's heart ask what was wrong...


Only a mysterious answer he finds there, but soon Riani doesn't care, because the most important thing now is that Ethan and Viola's marriage can go smoothly...
