Marrying a Girl of Papa's Choice
Part 146's. May your love be eternal.
This morning was the best morning for Mert. Last night he could not sleep, busy memorizing the words of ijab qobul which will be held at ten in the morning.
Mert's parents were unable to attend the ijab qobul event, Abi was not feeling well, they promised to come when the party was held and that if the conditions were possible.
At first the Mert family did not agree that Mert was married to Zara, but after Oma explained everything, she was very ashamed of her son who had acted immorally.
Last night Mert had sent make'up artist, as well as a dress for Zara, which will be worn when the ijab later.
The ijab event was deliberately conducted at the bride's house, in addition to getting to know the Zara family, also aimed at the realization of the apology of the male family.
"Is it really your master who will marry you Zara?" Mother asked while cooking rendang for guests in the kitchen after dawn.
"Yes, ma'am" Zara replied briefly.
"How can Zara, we poor people marry rich people like them? Not that I don't agree but you're Zara's only child, I'm afraid you'll be dumped. Married like us, simple life is better, I love having a simple daughter-in-law, she will not bring up our shortcomings.
Hearing Mother's words, Zara fell silent, lowered her face, not feeling the crystal droplets dripping on her cheeks that looked thin.
Zara wants to be honest with Mom that this marriage is not her wish, but it starts from Mert's fault. But it feels unbearable, Zara is worried that her mother's reaction will be excessive.
"Master Mert loves Zara, Mom. Zara is confident that Mr. Mert will accept Zara under any circumstances. Mr. Mert comes from an honorable rich family."
"It's all you who go through, you who feel how Mert loves you. I give it all to you, Zara. As a mother it's only natural that you worry."
" Already, Mom, pray for the best, Zara can't choose the wrong." Her daughter Mariam's mother finally made her mother calm.
Zara and mom today deliberately cook a lot, even though the wedding is only attended by family, and close neighbors only. However, they were rich people, many luxurious menus to be prepared. Mariam's mother used Zara's savings for her own wedding today.
Finished helping mom cook, Zara tidied up her bedroom. The room will be a bed with her husband later that night, because Zara's house has only two rooms. Zara's room is narrow only as big as the bathroom in Arsena's house. Let's hope Mert stays in the room without the AC.
Arsena's family is busy helping Mert prepare everything that will be brought to Zara's house later.
Because the ijab event is done in the bride's family, Mert was forced to follow the traditions that exist there.
"Arini, am I handsome?" Asked Mert who was trying his black tukedo and white hem in front of the mirror. Mert was satisfied with his clothes, so he was more sure he asked his cousin.
"Facing me let me see Mert?" Arini scrunched her forehead.
According to Arini this is the right time to prank Mert. "Mert, what clothes are you wearing? You even look so ugly. You'll deserve to wear another dress" Arini said with an expression made as confident as possible.
" Arini are you kidding me? this dress was designed by Aunt Mita herself."
" Really?" Arini instantly silenced her mouth.
"Aante!" Mert called out to Mitha who happened to be decorating the cakes and fruits in the living room.
"Mert. Call me?"
" Aunty, Arini said this dress is so ugly, she even said I'm not worthy of her meaning"
"Arini, you don't play, you don't have time." Mita wiggles her index finger in front of Arini's face.
" I'm sorry Auntie I just fucked Mert. Let him get caught, who told evil to Zara. As a woman I've been hurt Auntie."
"Already, already, now Mert, wants to take responsibility. So you support him."
Mita takes Arini out. Arini turned several times towards Mert and stuck out her tongue. "Dangerous!" Led again.
Mita just smiled at the childlike behavior of her stepson. Maybe Arini is used to joking with her friends in the dorm.
"Darling, you've stopped pranking Mert, he's tense, he'll soon be together." Mita said while shaking her head. Pull Arini into her room and dress her up with natural makeup according to her age.
"Darling, is there something I want to say?" Arsena approaches Andini.
" Normally don't ask for permission either ...." Andini answered the origin, because she was wearing a thin make'up on her face.
" I want us to celebrate our wedding. We invite everyone we know, your friends, my friends, I want to introduce to the world that my wife is so great and beautiful." Arsena starts to close her body to Andini.
" But Ars, my stomach must look fat if you wear a dress, it will be considered pregnant out of wedlock again."
" Yes no dear, I will explain if actually this event is seven monthly babies in your womb, all for our marriage university.
Andini thought for a moment, then smiled. "We'll think about it later, which is important today that Mert is married."
Arsena was shaking her lips. The idea received no serious response from Andini.
" Cup." Andini's red lips landed on her lips. "We're leaving now."
Andini reminded that time does not go backwards, they must be ready to go.
The car was neatly arranged by Davit facing towards the gate.
Mert as the bridegroom he sat in the front seat. Mert was silent without talking to Davit while sitting next to him. He was busy memorizing the words of the ijab in his heart, Mert was afraid that in time he forgot or even did not memorize.
Until finally Davit greets Mert first, while extending his hand.
" Congratulations, Sir. You're finally chosen by Zara." Lirih Davit with her face sad.
" Thank you Davit. Your soul mate is not him, I'm sure the empress is also waiting for her prince to pick her up," comforted Mert, as much as possible trying to be calm in front of Davit.
Davit, I'm sorry, I love Zara, I can't let you guys be together. Zara is mine, and from today she will be mine.
Andini and Arsena are behind Mert. Miko Dara, Oma and Mita ride in the second car driven by Johan. Rena and Bi Um had to live in their own home because their condition had not recovered properly.
While the third car is driven by Mr. Doni specifically to transport shipping and delivery for Zara, Ana's mother can not come along she is not feeling well and some days do not want to eat.
"Arini, where?"
Oh yea? Do not leave him, later will ask for his show to be rearranged, can be critical," said Arsena.
You guys how the hell, Arini is still looking for high hells that match the clothes that Arini wears already want to stay." said Arini tightly.
Arini finally asked to sit next to Mert, Arini is very beautiful with a bone white dress with knee length. The chest hemisphere is not too low equipped with an expensive pendant around his neck. Let a little gestek, Arini already has a mooring heart as well, the son of a businessman who became his school friend.
The groom's entourage left the mansion at exactly eight.
Two hours later
The bride is done dimake up, Zara looks very beautiful with a long dress and all-white hijab worn. It was just that the sad aura on his face was still obvious.
The groom's entourage has arrived, Zara is waiting at the end of the road accompanied by two mayang. While Mert walked slowly adjusting the rhythm of his music flanked by Arini and Davit.
Davit looks so tough, even though his heart is broken. He does not want anyone to enjoy his destruction.
The male group continued to walk forward, while the bride's group picked up her future husband. After they meet, the instructions provide direction for what the bride will do next.
Mert and Zara walked side by side. They immediately occupied the seats that had been prepared for the ijab.
Mert with his heart pounding as nervous immediately occupied his seat. While Zara had been strong enough to hold back the cloud in her eyes so as not to fall.
Davit looks so tough, even the look of hatred that is seen when the look in his eyes meets Zara. he stands behind the bridal family by folding his hands. But that made Zara even more sad. Zara was eager to explain to Davit that she loved, she didn't choose treasure.
