...CHAPTER 29...
...Wedding Invitation Card...
Fadil could not bear to see Rubi crying in a public place. Then he took her to another place that was more comfortable for them to chat.
The last time Fadil met with Rubi during High School graduation, when Rubi was still in 6th grade. Fadil and his family ate together in a fancy restaurant as a form of gratitude to the Most Loving, because it turned out the highest UN Fadil graduation score from other students. No doubt if he gets a scholarship to study in America as a prospective doctor.
Fadil greeted Raffa and his family who were eating there. Raffa also introduced all his family members to Fadil. Likewise, Fadil introduced his family members to Raffa.
Rubi's figure is small and tomboy first, not expecting she has turned into a beautiful adult woman. Fadil once saw his picture on Keyla's handycam.
"Whose picture is this?" fadil asked while comforting Keyla who was sick in the Hospital.
"If this is Aunt Rubi Om!"
"Ruby?!" Fadil was surprised to see Rubi's drastic change.
After Rubi recounted the problem, Fadil was also concerned to hear it.
"Is in this world the stock of truly loyal men already depleted?!" tanyanya sobbed little while wiping her tears with a handkerchief belonging to Fadil.
Fadil shone his smile. "Of course, the loyal man is still there" he replied casually.
While looking at the ocean that pounded the big waves not far a few meters in front of him.
"For me that loyal man is already very rare Brother! The proof is not that I am the victim of my own husband's affair. Almost all my friends also suffered the same fate as me." he explained.
"Huhuu... You crazy husbands, why are you never satisfied with just one wife?! Playboy's striped nose guy! I swear you'll get your karma!" he cried while crying, accompanied by his vow of absorption.
Rubi threw hard and far away the small stones in his hand into the sea. He has a high level of emotion in cheating men, especially men with the title of husband.
Fadil who heard it, instead of being sad with the wounds Rubi experienced, but he laughed amusedly.
"Kok Kak Fadil even catawain me anyway?!" snatch it. Fadil shook his head with a small smile.
"I think loyal or unfaithful a man, it depends how his own person. If someone who only thinks about the pleasures of life!" Fadil paused his words, and threw away a small stone into the sea like Rubi.
"Surely he will never be satisfied with one woman. But a loyal man, he will only focus on thinking about his future. Focus on making your family, your partner and their baby happy. It is more important than everything than anything, then not terbesit in their minds even a little will hurt the hearts of those who love it.." explained Fadil staring in Rubi, then he looked up gently at the view of the night sky above the ocean.
Rubi stunned. Then nod small, understanding it. "Is Brother Fadil married?" tanyakanya.
"Not yet, but soon I'm getting married." he said flatly. "Why indeed?" Fadil asked back.
Rubi smiled widely and was happy to hear that his brother's friend was getting married.
"No. Rubi is only sure once, if the woman who will be the wife of Big Brother will definitely live happily because she is married to a man who is broad and committed like Kak Fadil..." rubi said admiring Fadil who is very mature according to him.
Fadil glanced at Rubi, the younger brother of his friend. Then he smiled wryly at the words of Rubi just now.
Will Lyra be happy after marrying me? Hahaha Rubi Rubi you don't know yet, who exactly is the woman I'm going to marry? He's your sister's ex-boyfriend, and I'm sure there's still more to Lyra's love for your sister than I'm really sincere about her.
*****
Rubi came home with a bright face, with a few paper bag groceries in both hands. His meeting with Fadil earlier, made his mood improve again.
After a long chat with Fadil earlier. Rubi and Fadil stopped by the cafe and had dinner together and then they both went to the mall to relieve the sadness in their hearts. Not to forget Rubi bought all the things he liked, for Keyla and also his mother. Except for Raffa, who Rubi deliberately didn't want to give him. Because Rubi was already upset with his brother.
"Key... Keylaaa!" he called his favorite nephew in the living room.
"Keyla's asleep!"
Raffa looked in wonder at his sister whose own smile was indistinct.
Because earlier, Rubi went surly, then returned home with a cheerful face.
Raffa glanced at the clock on the wall. At nine o'clock that night his sister just got home. He snorted cynically.
"Go-go was sulking, now home his own smiles. Out of possession, huh?! Inget tuh, learn to save your age is still young." said Raffa who sat on the sofa while returning to focus staring at the screen of his laptop.
"What the hell, Brother? It's up to me to buy what. My own money, I bothered so much to be a person!" cibirnya.
Do not want to linger with Raffa whose work always comments on his life. Better Rubi to his nephew's room first. Looking at Keyla, even though Raffa said the little girl was asleep.
Rubi stepped quickly up the stairs. Slowly he entered Keyla's room with a paper bag in his hand a gift for Keyla that he had bought in the mall.
He saw that Keyla's room light was still on. Rubi was surprised to see Keyla sitting on the floor, leaning her small back on the edge of the mattress, while looking at the photo of her Mama in her hand.
Keyla looked surprised at the door of her room that was opened. "Auntie Rubi?"
"Hey, you haven't slept Key? Your father said, he said you were asleep..."
"Not Aunt, Key is sleepy..."
Rubi kept a gift for Keyla on the bed, and she sat down next to him. "What's wrong, does it still hurt?" tanyanya while fingering her nephew's forehead.
Keyla shook her head slowly. "Keyla sad Aunt... Actually Keyla is still not willing that Aunt Rara will get married." he said.
"Auntie Rara? Who's she?" ask Rubi.
Keyla turned to Rubi with her increasingly sad face.
"Tante Rara is his little friend Mama, Auntie...! She was so nice to Keyla, her face was so pretty. Beautiful as Keyla's mother." amazed to smile.
So Keyla took her handycame in the drawer of the study table, showing photos and videos of her collaboration with Lyra on Rubi. Rubi saw her smile, he admitted that the woman called Keyla was indeed very beautiful.
"Keyla's already in love with her Aunt. Keyla is sad because soon she will marry Doctor. Try it if the marriage is with Papa! Keyla must be really happy, because Aunt Rara could be Keyla's new mom..."
Rubi surprised. "Who did you just say? Aunt Rara wants to marry the Doctor, which Doctor. What do you mean by Om Fadil?"
Rubi is the only doctor who has ever treated Keyla. And Ambar told me about it over the phone. Because after marriage Rubi rarely returned to Indonesia.
Keyla nodded quickly. "Yes Aunty..."
Rubi. So this woman, his future wife Kak Fadil? stare at the heart. Rubi immediately remembered Fadil's words.
"What makes you look sad on your wedding day? You should be happy dong.." asked Rubi curious because seeing Fadil's face does not show happiness at all. Fadil smiled wryly.
"Obviously I'm not happy. Because my future wife, never loved me... I know in his heart he still loves men in his time." he said with a broken heart Fadil revealed.
"Make what if later this body is united in the bond of marriage. But the couple we love is expecting another man."
Rubies flinch to digest every word Fadil said earlier. He wondered in his mind.
Who is it, the man of his future wife Kak Fadil?
You stupid woman, there is a good man who sincerely loves you, still another man! he swore at heart.
Rubi deliberately berated Lyra's maki in her heart. Worried that Keyla would hear it and become angry at him. Because his nephew looks so fond of the woman named Rara.
****
Next day. Keyla starts going to school and Rubi delivers. Rubi is indeed a member of the Raffa family who is good at seducing Keyla.
Raffa was again relieved to see his daughter who wanted to return to school, although still looks not excited.
Raffa said goodbye to Mother and her daughter, then went first to her Office. Forty-five minutes he arrived at the office building.
Raffa was surprised because early in the morning there were already guests waiting for him in his study.
"Sorry, it's surprising you. I just came by for a second, to give you this..."
Fadil offered her wedding invitation card to Lyra. "I hope you can come to our wedding..."
Raffa was riveted, gulping down his coarsely choked saliva. Staring at the nano on the maroon-red wedding card that is now in his hand. The name of the woman he loved, soon the woman will be the wife of another man.
"Then I leave." Fadil walked past Raffa who was still frozen, patting his shoulder gently.
Fadil's out of Raffa's study. While Raffa clasped his chest which seemed to feel tight pressing. Her eagle eyes were red-glazed. It was too late, for Lyra was not the soul mate God had given her.
Seriate....
