LOVE THE CHILDREN OF JURAGAN
Not Like Marriage

Erdana threw her phone on the bed. This is the 20th call he made. But Mentari did not answer the call at all. Even hundreds of messages that Erdana has sent since last night there is one that Mentari read.

Today Erdana is going to marry Yasmin. A lightning preparation made by their parents. Preparation is not up to two weeks. The wedding, which was originally planned to be attended by the family, turned out to be a big wedding due to the intervention of Yasmin's grandfather, who was a health minister.

Marriage raises big questions among many people. Because everyone knows the young businessman named Erdana Furkan is his girlfriend Mentari the young designer who is on the rise among the officials and the artist. Why he should instead marry Yasmin Chakira, the son of doctor Satria who has several branches of hospitals in several major cities in Indonesia and the CEO of one of the largest drug companies in Indonesia as well.

A week before the wedding day arrived, Mentari suddenly posted something on his Instagram after previously he deleted photos of his friendship with Erdana.

We have to sweeten this

without hurting each other and hating each other. Love does not always have to be united. In this way, I also know that the soul mate, sustenance and death are all arranged by God. In sincerity I pray for you to be happy. I also hope that you pray for me to be happy with others.

There's a photo Mentari uploaded there. Photos of hands clasping each other and there is a circular ring on each ring finger.

Erdana knew that the post was just a lie so that the public would not consider Erdana having an affair with Yasmin. The post was a sign that Mentari was still keeping Erdana's good name.

"E......!" a call made him look towards the door of his room which was indeed unlocked. Elmira, her twin sister stood there with an easy blue-colored kebaya. Such as the theme chosen by Naura for the Kabul ijab event. As for the reception later tonight is carrying a white theme, like the favorite color of Yasmin's grandfather because they are a family of doctors.

"Hi....!"

Elmira stepped in. "Dad reminded that in 15 minutes we have to go to the mosque where the marriage contract is held."

Erdana nodded in lethargy.

Elmira sat next to her twin sister. " Are still trying to contact Mentari?" ask Elmira. Last night Erdana told me about her sir's marriage to Mentari. He could no longer keep the secret to himself.

"Yes. He's been blocking me on all his social media."

"I saw his instagatam, he was with the staff and some of his friends. They're on vacation in Singapore."

"He must have been hurt, El."

"You've already run it?"

"I can't do it, El. I love her."

"So Jeslin's aunt came. He delivered a box. Huh!"

Erdana opened the box. His heart immediately rippled to see the ring he gave to Mentari during their wedding in America and the watch Erdana gave to Mentari during the celebration of their one-year marriage, Mentari returned to him.

"He did want to erase all the traces I had left him."

"Er, I know this is hard. Be a good husband to Yasmin. Make Yasmin feel comfortable with you. You're gonna have kids."

"It's hard for me to forget the Mentari."

"I knew. I understand how you feel." Elmira hugged her twin sister. Losing Mentari would definitely be very painful for Erdana. Marrying Yasmin was a must for her despite the weight of living it.

************

The Ijab of Kabul was successfully spoken by Erdana in one breath. Erdana gave a dowry in the form of a set of prayer tools and gold in the form of necklaces, rings, bracelets and diamond earrings, all 100 grams.

In the ring finger of Erdana and Yasmin had coiled their wedding ring. After the Ijab kabul event, followed by a lunch together at the Furkan family home and the evening was held a wedding reception at one of the five-star hotels.

Both Erdana and Yasmin tried to smile at the guests even though both hearts were agitated.

When he saw Jeslin among the guests, Erdana's heart grew sad. But Jeslin with a friendly smile and full of motherly feeling approached Erdana and Yasmin. Congratulate him and he's blessed.

"Auntie pray that you stay together until death do you part. Given a good son and a Solehah." said Jeslin when hugging Erdana.

"Bi, Mentari.....?" erdana asked without being able to hold back her curiosity.

"So there's an event in Singapore. He sends greetings to you both." Jeslin then immediately hugged Yasmin as well.

Naura who saw Jeslin could feel sadness through the eyes of her best friend. He was also sad that they were not made.

**************

The wedding reception was over at 10 p.m. Yasmin and Erdana entered the hotel room prepared by their families.

As the two enter, Yasmin rushes to the bathroom after first picking up a change of clothes from inside her suitcase.

Erdana was sitting on the sofa waiting for her turn to enter the bathroom.

Erdana immediately headed to the bathroom. He needed cold water to cool his hot head. Mentari's face continues to be reflected in his eyes.

When Erdana finished with her bathing ritual, she immediately exited the bathroom. He saw that Mentari had slept while covering his body with a blanket up to the limit of the neck. Erdana picked up one pillow and immediately headed to the sofa that was indeed available there. Although the length of the sofa was not enough with Erdana's long body, Erdana tried to lay her body there. He misses Mentari.

**********

Yasmin woke up first. He sat on the bed and watched Erdana who was still sleeping on the sofa. Erdana's tall body was less comfortable. Yasmin did not want to feel pity. He still hated Erdana for having caused them to be in this kind of situation.

Yasmin got out of bed and immediately went to the bathroom because she felt nauseous.

Erdana who was actually still sleepy, was forced to open her eyes when she heard the sound of people vomiting.

He got off the sofa while moving his stiff body, after which he walked to the bathroom. The unlocked bathroom door allowed him to see what was going on inside.

"Do you need anything?" erdana asked to look at Yasmin who had just wiped her mouth after removing her entrails.

Yasmin looked at Erdana who was standing in front of the bathroom door.

"Don't pay attention to me! I can take care of myself." Yasmin said a little sniffly.

Erdana raised her hand into the air. "Up to you!" Erdana turned her body and immediately returned to the bed. He laid his body there comfortably because sleeping on the sofa made his whole body hurt.

The hour hand still shows at half-seven in the morning. Yasmin was actually still sleepy. But seeing Erdana who had climbed onto the bed, Yasmin chose to walk towards the balcony and sit there while playing her phone. He was surprised to see a message from Andre. In the last week the guy ignored her.

I don't think I have to say: HAPPY. But what else?

It hurts to let go of you to be with the others. I'm sorry I couldn't keep you company. I don't seem like a real man because I can't fight for you because of the circumstances. Yasmin, I don't know when I can forget you.

Yasmin's tears immediately fell reading the message. Although only a few months into Andre's lover, but Yasmin is really happy to be in a relationship with the oriental-faced guy. Andre is gentle, romantic and always there when he needs it.

God, I shouldn't have thought of another man when I was married. But what else?

Yasmin clutched her phone in her chest. The shadow of Andre's soft face was now playing on his eye patch. Yasmin really missed that guy.

***********

Erdana woke up 2 hours later. He took a shower and changed his clothes.

"Prepare your clothes, we'll go home" Erdana told Yasmin who was still sitting on the balcony.

"Going home? Where to?"

"My apartment."

"I don't want to! I want to go home! We are already married. But only for this child. So don't expect me to stay with you. You disgust me!"

"Yasmine....!" Erdana tried to hold back her emotions. "I'm a jerk for raping you. But what else? A thousand apologies I will not be able to bring back all that I have taken from you. I wouldn't ask you to be a real wife, either. Because I can't be a real husband either. But anyway, we are married. Where can a husband and wife live differently? But if your parents let you, you can go back to your house!".

Yasmin called her mother.

"Son, your things have been sent to Erdana's apartment. You have to stay there because now you're your husband's responsibility."

Yasmin could not argue with her mother. Although upset, he finally came home with Erdana.

The Erdana apartment consists of two floors. On the first floor there was one guest room and the second floor was an Erdana room.

.

"You slept in the guest room. Like I said, I'm not gonna demand you be a real wife."

"And don't you ever go into this room. Remember that!" yasmin said firmly before she entered the room by slamming the door.

Erdana could only take a deep breath. He was confused about what to do. To be honest, Erdana misses Mentari.

************

What kind of marriage will Yasmin and Erdana experience? Where exactly is Mentari?
