Mom, Why Am I Different?
Chapter 29
Hearing Roy's words I just fell silent without a single answer. Even looking at his eyes I couldn't. After thinking for a moment I began to dare to look at the face of the man who had been my best friend.
"Are you sure of your decision, and are you ready to accept Luna as your own child even if you have one child from me?" I asked Roy with a doubtful look at him.
"I promise to make you both happy, I will always think of Luna as my biological child no matter what happens in the future, " roy replied with a smile to me and hugged Luna who was sitting next to him.
"How did Rani accept Roy's proposal to make you his wife? " ask Asih while smiling kindly.
"Bismil was bornrohmanirrohim, Insya Allah Rani accepted Mas Roy's proposal, "I replied firmly with a smile to Roy.
"Alhamdulillah, " said Roy and his parents simultaneously.
"Well then our duty as parents is to find a good date for them" Usman told Asih while looking happy.
"Yes sir, we finally have a grandson sir. Luna here Nak same Grandma, "said Asih while waving her hand to Luna.
"My mother-in-law apologizes for what my ex-husband did to Mas Roy" I hesitantly told my future mother-in-law.
"Mother who should be apologizing to you, I should not blame you at that time because I understand very well how Niko behaved, let alone to others to you she was so rude," asih said with a smile and held Luna who had just stood in front of her.
"We know that if you are a good woman, it's just that you chose the wrong husband. Hopefully this time Roy can be a good Husband and Father for you and Luna and for your children later, ", said Usman while hugging Roy's shoulder beside him.
"Amiin," said Roy and I simultaneously and threw smiles at each other.
It was a happy day for me, because after a long time I had the same feeling for my best friend. Now without feeling I will be his wife. The smile of a friend who once captivated my heart is now the smile of a future husband and priest who will guide me and accompany me through my and Luna's future.

After the date and all the preparations are done. Me, Mas Roy and Luna intend to come to Niko. In addition to ushering in our wedding invitations, we also intend to establish good friendship with Niko and her family.
"Assalamualaikum, " said Roy and me simultaneously.
"Girishalam, Rani! " niko said as if surprised by the arrival of me and Roy at her house.
"I'm sorry if our arrival bothers you, we just want to hand this over" I said, handing over an invitation to Roy and me.
"What does this invitation mean?" niko asked as if she could not believe what she was reading.
"Yes, the day after Roy and I will have our wedding, I hope you and Niken can come to our reception" I replied with a friendly smile.
"No, you can't get married. Rani I beg you to give me a chance to change and I promise that I will divorce Niken soon and come back to you, " said Niko, pleading and holding my hand.
"sorry Mas, I can't because love for you has long gone along with you leaving me 7 years ago, "I replied as I let go of Niko's hand.
"Basic You bastard!" niko snapped while pulling Roy's shirt to make him surprised.
"Dad! release Om Roy, "cries Luna suddenly while pushing her body away from Roy.
"Never hurt my daughter!" roy snapped while pushing Niko's body and directly walked towards Luna and carried her.
"Your daughter, Luna is my daughter remember that! " niko snapped while trying to pull her from Roy's embrace.
"Enough Mas! All this time I've been patient with your attitude, and from now on don't interfere with all my business. I don't forbid you from meeting Luna but I hope you don't make a mess when you meet her" I explained as I pulled Niko's body away from the frightened Luna.
"Rani, we better go home now pity Luna has been very scared," asked Roy who I immediately replied with a nod.
“You can't leave here with Luna! Luna Come on, come on with Dad,” shouted Niko as she chased us who were walking towards the car.
“Come quickly Mas,” my command to Roy and ask him to get in the car immediately and lock the car door.
“Rani quickly open the door! Roy quickly open or I break the glass of your car,” threatened Niko by trying to open the door of our car that has begun to walk away from the house.
“I didn't expect you to survive with a rude man like Niko" Roy said as he drove his car.
"When I knew her until we got married she was so gentle, but her attitude changed when our lives were really downstairs, she said, his rude attitude began to look not infrequently he tortured and hit me in front of a lot of people just because of a trivial matter," I replied as I directed my gaze straight ahead.
"I promise I will continue to protect you and Luna from the abusive man" Roy said as he continued to focus on the street in front of him.
"Mother, Luna is hungry," whined Luna who had just stopped from crying.
"Luna wants to eat what, honey?" roy asked as he glanced at Luna.
"Luna wants to eat chicken Om" Luna replied as she moved to Roy's chair.
"How about we eat at kentucky chicken restaurant, but there is a condition dong," said Roy with a smile.
"What Om?" asked Luna while peeking at Roy from behind the chair.
"Kiss first dong, only after that we eat chicken," replied Roy with a smile.
Luna immediately hugged Roy from behind and kissed him very happily. I who saw the behavior of my daughter and my future husband just smiled happily. I didn't expect Roy to take Luna's heart so young.
"Mother why smile, don't you want to kiss me too" Roy teased me to shame and smile.
"God may this be the beginning of a happiness that will never end, and may Roy be the right man for me and Luna" I thought as I looked at Roy.
"Well if you don't want to, let me just kiss" she said, bringing her lips closer.
"Hust, don't be married yet" I replied, pushing Roy's lips a little further away and making Luna laugh out loud.
the laughter in the car that afternoon was clear, maybe some people will think we are a whole family. Despite the fact that I am still the future wife of the man who is currently beside me. Luna's tears and cries had also changed with a smile and laughter clearly visible on her face.
