LET ME BE HAPPY
chapter 72

The beautiful girl in the wedding dress was staring at herself in the mirror. Today is her wedding day. Intentions only want to get married once in a lifetime, but apparently the destiny says something else. This marriage was his third marriage.

The beautiful girl who is no longer the girl, is none other than Adinda. After going through some consideration and advice from those closest to him, he finally decided to accept a male proposal that still dominates his heart from the past to the present.

How strong he tried to endure and close his heart tightly, but he was helpless when his daughter always asked his father to stay. Adinda always cried silently as she accidentally saw Vina who always prayed so that she could feel what the other children felt.

"I accept the marriage and marriage of Adinda Eka Lestari bint the late Fathan Angkasa with the dowry paid in cash!" There was the cry of the qabul sentence uttered by Devin loudly and firmly down there.

I don't know what Adinda is feeling right now. The feeling of happiness and sadness melted into one when his status had changed to a wife again. He was happy to realize his daughter's dream. But on the other hand he also felt a deep sadness.

Seven years have passed, but the figure of a good man who has now calmed down in nature there, as if it feels like only yesterday they are still together. Shortness always riveted when the memories of togetherness with Ivan revolved in his mind.

Especially now that the people closest to him are gone. Starting from the age of Oma Fani who died even though he was in good health. The sadness felt by opa Nathan because of the loss of his beloved wife makes his condition drop even more. Although it was treated, but fate said another. A month later Nathan's opa caught up with his wife.

A few years later, my father left him. It was ruined Adinda's life at that time. But the figure of the little angel who always commented on his sweet smile, made Adinda rise again and excited to live life.

"Darling," call Mama Rita soft.

"Ma-mama." Adinda snapped from her daydream. He immediately removed the wet traces on his cheeks.

"Loh, why you, honey? What makes you sad?" ask mama Rita. The middle-aged woman looked so worried when she accidentally saw Adinda wipe away the tears on her cheeks.

"No Ma, just a flick," replied Adinda.

Mama Rita breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God, Mama thinks you're okay. Here, baby, Mama help." Mama Rita helps put Adinda back on makeup.

"Still Ma" said Adinda when Mama Rita had finished fixing Adinda's makeup that had been chaotic because of crying.

"Same-dear," said Mama Rita softly.

"Mama is also sorry. Adinda did not intend to betray the late brother Ivan by remarrying." Adinda looked down with teary eyes.

Mama Rita grabs Adinda's hand. Gently rubbed it with affection. For him, Adinda is not just a daughter-in-law, but Adinda already he considers like his own child.

"Darling, don't talk like that anymore. You're not betraying anyone. Mama is sure, Ivan will certainly feel happiness if you are happy. So, don't be sad anymore." Adinda raised her face. He smiled and nodded.

"Now we go down yuk. The ijab qabuli event is over. Everyone is waiting for you" said Rita.

"Yes, Ma" replied Adinda. They also moved to the family room which was transformed into a marriage contract.

A simple wedding that is only attended by family members and nearby neighbors. No need to be fancy, which is important legitimate. This is not the first marriage for both.

"Finally Mama can fulfill your last wish. May you be happy there, dear," inwardly mama Rita.

Mama Rita takes Adinda. A happy smile emanated from his face. If anyone asks if Mama Rita is hurt? The answer is, not at all. Precisely Mama Rita felt happiness that was matchless. His son's last request, which he thought was just a joke, was finally able to fulfill it even though it took a long time to make it happen.

Flashback...

"Assalamualaikum, Ma," said Ivan when he visited his parents' house when he came home from work.

"Ivan came home from work and stopped by Ma" replied Ivan.

"What's up, hem? Looks like there's something you want to talk about" asked Mama Rita.

"Ma, Ivan can you ask Mama for help?" Mama Rita nodded with a smile on her face.

"Ma, if one day Ivan can no longer take care of Adinda, Ivan begs Mama to replace Ivan to take care of him. One more thing, please reunite Adinda with her ex-husband." Mama Rita frowned upon hearing her son's unreasonable plea.

"What are you talking about?" Mama Rita did not understand the ambiguous words of her son.

"Thank you for being Ivan's best parent. Ivan loved Mama," said Ivan at the time. Ivan looked at her sweet smile. He said goodbye after receiving a call from his wife. Leaving Rita's mother who was still thinking about her son's words.

"Any," murmured mama Rita.

A week after the incident, Rita's mother heard the news that her son had an accident. He rushed to the hospital where his son was being treated.

Mama Rita felt an incredible tightness. The figure of his eldest son was now stiffened before him. If time could be turned back, if he had known that it was the last day he spoke to his son, he would have asked Ivan to stay longer the last time he visited his house.

Now he understood that his son's arrival was the last time and his speech was his last wish that he should make.

Flashback...

Now the pair of human children have legally returned to be a husband and wife. Although their marriage was very simple, but happiness was clearly on the faces of everyone, let alone Vina.

Vina is one of the happiest people. He was busy preparing for the marriage of his parents. He repeatedly looked at the door. I can't wait for his father to come. He also looked back and forth at his own mother. Adinda and the others just bobbing their heads to see Vina's behavior that can not be silent.

One by one the invited guests went home after congratulating the two brides. So did the Ivan family.

"Mother, Father, Vina slept with Mother and Father tonight, yes" said Vina enthusiastically.

"Vina Darling, she said Vina kangen with Oma. Keep saying to follow Oma same opa to the night market to ride the ring?" persuade mama Intan.

"Oh yeah, Vina forgot Oma." Vina showed off her neatly lined rows of teeth.

"Then, saying goodbye to the father and mother" said papa Bima.

"Mother, Dad, Vina wants to join oma same opa. Vina's off school tomorrow, so Vina's gonna do it?" pamit Vina's.

"Yes, my dear" replied Devin. My sister just smiled and nodded. Staying alone with Devin after such a long time made him feel awkward.

Mama Intan and papa Bima also say goodbye. There are Adinda and Devin left besides the Artists who are certainly busy with their respective activities.

"Here Din, I help," said Devin when he saw Adinda had difficulty to unzip her wedding dress.

Both feel dejavu. They were silent with their own minds. Adinda who felt pounding while near Devin after all this time. Another case with Devin that neutralizes the pounding of his heart, his gaze, and also something that increasingly feels tight and rebellious.
