OVERSTRESSED

Nara looked at her reflection. For the second time, he wears a white kebaya. But his feelings are not the same as before. If it used to be, this second will be very stressful and happy. But not for now. The tension and fear he felt. Will history repeat itself? I hope it doesn't.

"The bride, the groom and his family have come." Said Kinan who had just entered Nara's room.

"Are you ok?" Kinan asked as he looked at Nara's pale and sweaty face. When she touched Nara's palm, the same thing she felt. The hand was wet from cold sweat.

"Ra, are you good at the rhyme?" Kina asked a second time.

"I'm afraid brother." Nara answered with a look of eyes.

"Everything's gonna be ok."

Kinan hugged Nara so that her sister was calmer. "Septian seems like a good man. He is polite, simple and willing to take responsibility."

"What if history repeats itself?" Nara asked behind her sister's back.

"Don't overthinking. It's not good to think of something that doesn't happen. Positive thinking, everything will be fine. Trust Me."

Kinan broke his embrace and grabbed the lipstick on the dresser.

"Let's not be too pale." Kinan smeared another lipstick on Nara's lips.

"Inhale, shale." Tell Kinan to make Nara more rilex.

Nara followed Kinan's advice. He took a few breaths and threw them away slowly.

"Are you ready to go downstairs?" Kinan extended his hand before Nara.

Nara nodded as she grabbed Kinan's hand.

Downstairs, the show is not so crowded. Probably no more than a hundred people were present. As per Papa Nara's orders, Septian only came with family, close relatives and left-right neighbors only. As for Papa Nara, he only invited close relatives, some neighbors and colleagues, one of whom was the rector at the campus where Nara taught.

Nara squeezed Kinan's hand as her foot tracked the living room floor of her house. There was no tent or anything today. The event is only held in the living room and terrace of the house. It was inversely proportional to his wedding with Abi at that time.

Septian smiled as he saw Nara coming. The woman looks very beautiful even with just a flawless makeup and kebaya that is far from luxurious impression. Very simple, but did not reduce the beauty of Nara.

Nara sat next to Septian who looked very handsome in a black suit. There was tension on his face.

After everything is ready. Papa Nara immediately shook Septian's hand and uttered a sentence of ijab. And immediately answered with a sentence of kabul with one breath by Septian.

"How are the witnesses?"

"WELL." RIGHT."

And for a second, Nara fainted. Makes everyone there panic without septian drooping.

Tiur immediately told Septian to bring Nara into his room. Followed by him and Kinan who works as a doctor. Others continued with prayers and other events.

After Nara was laid down, Kinan patted her cheek gently and called out her name. As for Tiur, the woman immediately took wind oil and rubbed it on some parts of Nara's face.

"It's not too crowded mah, but he's too tense and afraid, so it's up to syncope gini." Answer Kinan while removing some buttons kebaya Nara so that his breathing more smoothly.

Nara opened her eyes slowly. The first thing he saw was the sky in his room.

"Alhamdulillah, you've come to your senses dear." Tiur.

Nara looked to her side and found Kinan and her mother. And behind his mother, Septian stood with an anxious look.

"I'm in the room?"

"You fainted from being too tense. Lack of blood flow to the brain, making you syncope." Kinan.

"But Nara is good? no problem with the content?" Tiur was still worried.

"Gak papa mah. This kind of reaction is natural if one is too scared or tense." Kinan's explanation made Septian and Tiur breathe a sigh of relief.

"We better get down mah. Below are many guests. My son must have also found me. Let Nara be taken care of by her husband." Kinan said as he moved from his seat.

"alright. Take good care of Nara. If there's anything, tell us immediately." Tiur's message while patting Septian on the shoulder.

"Yes, um." Answer Septian while nodding.

Now Nara and Septian live in the room. The mood suddenly turned awkward. It was strange when they were in a room together. It used to be in this situation, but it feels different. Now it feels more stressful.

Septian grabbed the glass filled with water and handed it to Nara.

"Thank you." Nara answered and drank slowly.

While Septian, his eyes without hesitation actually looked towards Nara's chest. The open kebaya button made Nara's cleavage look so clear.

Nara hurriedly put down the glass and closed her chest as she subconsciously noticed that Septian.

Septian could not help but laugh at Nara's behavior that seemed funny and a little excessive.

"Why it's covered, it used to be spread out on the beach." Septian Ledek.

Nara looked down with a face heated up in embarrassment. Shame to remember the disgusting evening dress she bought for a honeymoon with Abi. And it ends with a midnight walk beside the beach.

"Gu, I'll change my clothes first." Nara went to the closet to pick up a casual dress.

"Need help?"

Nara immediately turned her head while glaring at Septian.

"Don't get me wrong. You're afraid you're still dizzy, you're fainting. Danger if you fall in the toilet, you're pregnant." Instead of focusing on the Septian explanation, Nara instead focused on the word Septian that called her you. Usually you are.

Nara did not reply, she immediately walked towards the bathroom while carrying a house dress. When Nara came out of the bathroom, she saw that Septian had taken off his suit. He just wears a white shirt whose arms are folded up to the elbow. And for some reason, it looks even more handsome in Nara's eyes.
