Marriage to the Enemy
Part 12's
Renata is dressing up in front of the glass. He applied powder and thin lipstick. Do not forget mascara and perona, to make it more perfect appearance.
"Ren, is it still a long time?" ask Ricky who looks perfect.
Today is Ricky's graduation day, he asks his wife to accompany him at the event. This is because parents are too busy with their business. Especially since Ricky decided to leave the house, communication seemed to be cut off.
Since dawn, the two have been getting ready. Ricky had proposed using makeup services, but was rejected by Renata. For the reason that you can make up yourself.
"Udah kelar, yuk yuk unplug!" replied Renata while taking the slim bag containing her wallet and mobile phone.
"It's so pretty, whose wife is this?" praise Ricky to his wife.
"Your race is too crisp!" sahut Rena while walking past Ricky just like that with a reddened face.
Ricky immediately menggelos heard the words of his wife.
"What's so hard to make a husband happy?" sulk Ricky, following Rena from behind.
Both of them to the campus drove a car so that Rena's appearance was not damaged by the wind. After traveling for thirty minutes at moderate speed, they reached the campus. Looks like the parking area that has been crowded by the car of the invited guests and parents of graduates/wisudawati.
Ricky opened the door for Rena, not forgetting his hand to protect Rena's head so as not to hit with the roof of the car. Ricky deliberately thrust his arm to be embraced by his wife. But instead, they are protesting.
"Remember! In the agreement there is no skinship. So, no need to join hands let alone hug," said Rena without touching Ricky's arm in the slightest.
"Papa and Aunt Sora are coming, right?" ricky asked as he put both his hands in his pants pocket. " It's okay if you want to be looked at with suspicion by them. I'm fine, anyway I'll tell them the truth if asked."
Hearing that, Rena stomped her feet then festively hugged Ricky's arm. Hugged his sturdy arm. The two headed for the building with Rena's hands clenched on Ricky's arms.
"Waahh, the newlyweds seem to be getting sticky" said aunty Soraya who had just passed by.
Not only did Aunt Soraya come, Gunadi and Ricko also attended Ricky's graduation ceremony.
"How are you, Tan? Papa," said Ricky as he approached his in-laws, then shook their hands one by one.
"Alhamdulillah, Ky. Congratulations, you are a scholar! Papa is proud of you, still young, has become a businessman and holds a bachelor's degree" said Mr. Gunadi, patting Ricky on the shoulder slowly.
"Ah, Papa could have. Ricky's the same other cake, Pa. Many of Ricky's friends who work while in college, if they can mean Ricky should also be able to," replied Ricky low.
Before long, there has been a voice call for students who are going to graduate. They are welcome to enter through the side door, while invited guests enter through the front door.
Three hours passed, and the graduation was over. There are only a few entertainment events and congratulations for the graduates. Some of the visitors of the event had already left the large hall.
Ricky exits through the main door to meet his wife and family who are already waiting outside. It turns out that not only Rena with family, but Bimo Mama Mira's sister also came on this happy day.
"Of Bimo!" call Ricky with a big smile. He was very happy because of the arrival of his uncle who felt like a father and also a friend.
"Thank you, Om. Already took the time to come in between the busy Om Bimo taking care of the company" said Ricky shed tears happily.
"You've been considered Om's son, even though Om's age is not worthy of having a child as big as you," ledek 38-year-old but single man.
"Om is more worthy of being a friend than a parent. But if Om Bimo gets married, Ricky thinks he's a father. Hahaha ..." replied Ricky did not want to lose.
"How about we go home? Soraya had cooked a lot to celebrate Ricky's graduation," said Pak Gunadi interjected.
Finally they all went home to Mr. Gunadi. Renata and Ricky were in one car, Bimo asked Soraya to come with him on the grounds of forgetting the road to the residence of Mr. Gunadi.
Their arrival at Pak Gunadi's residence was welcomed by the boarding children there. Both son and daughter. They seem to be coordinating so that they look compact in welcoming the arrival of the boarding house owners.
Aunt Sora instructed the residents of the boarding house, to arrange a place to eat together. They stretched the carpet for the pedestal because of the lesehan eating event with a menu of rice liwet.
The dinner as a thanksgiving for Ricky's success. They were all happy to see Ricky's satisfactory grades. Although not cumlaude, but graduating with a GPA of 3.44 is a pride in itself.
"Ricky, Papa, get Papa's son. Take care of him, love him and guide him!" mr. Gunadi's message to Ricky.
"Good, Pa. Ricky must have taken care of Renata because Ricky loved her. Why did Papa say that, as if Papa was going far away?"
"Papa was assigned to Maluku, later tonight had to leave there. Papa's friends left two days ago, Papa's permission tonight to leave" explained Gunadi.
"What time will Papa leave to take us to the airport?"
"Fifth hour we're leaving home, Papa's plane's scheduled seven o'clock."
As they chatted, there was an incoming chat from Wenny who invited Ricky to celebrate graduation. Wenny threatens that if Ricky doesn't want to come, he never wants to break up with Ricky. So inevitably, Ricky assented.
Gunadi told Ricky and Rena to go into the room to change clothes and rest. Rena who was initially deaf to her husband was reprimanded by Mr. Gunadi and lectured aunt Soraya. Renata lets Ricky into the room.
In the afternoon, all the families of Mr. Gunadi packed up to take the head of the family to work in Maluku. Pak Gunadi's luggage is not much. He only carried one large backpack to store his belongings.
After driving her in-laws to the airport, Ricky immediately drove Aunt Soraya and Ricko home. After that, he took his wife to the apartment and changed clothes.
"Where are you going?" ask Rena wonder. "We've just arrived, how come we're going again? Not tired?"
"So I promised the kids, there's no way I'm canceling that. You don't have to wait for me to come home. Don't know what time to go home yet" said Ricky.
"There is no tomorrow!" grouse Rena.
"I'm pulling, yeah! Don't wait for me ..." cried Ricky, walking quickly away from his unit.
