"Aisha, I can't believe you're getting married." Reina was in Aisyah's bridal room. He asked Aisha to accompany him before the recitation of the kabul ijab.
"That's the last word I've heard from your mouth." Aisyah rolled her eyes irritated.
"Hehe... I'm sorry I was so shocked to see you dressed like this."
"There will be a turn for you."
Reina just smiled at Aisyah's words. In three days he will be put in this position. Waiting for her future husband to say sacred sentences with a pounding heart. Even now he was nervous about what would happen tomorrow.
"Reina?" Aisyah waved her hand in front of Reina's face.
"Ah, what's wrong?" Reina asked after waking up from her daydream.
"Why have you been daydreaming lately?"
"I guess I'm just thinking about what my fate will be."
"Oh my goodness, Reina, go first. You will also love your life story. The important thing is that you should be grateful and patient in dealing with it."
"I'll remember what you said."

"Are you busy in the afternoon?" Ask Sakura.
"What's the mah?"
"Mama wants to invite you and Reina to pick your wedding dress. Remember there are three days left of your marriage."
"Well I'll come."
"You call Reina yeah, mama wants to cook first." Sakura leaves Akira typing on her laptop screen.
For these three days Akira chose to work at home. Even if someone asked for his signature for a job, he asked his secretary to come to his house. He wants a quiet time before his wedding. Akira starts to contact Reina.
"Assalamu'alaikum" Reina replied across the street.
"Wa'alaikumsalam"
"What's the matter with you calling me." That voice, that voice that Akira misses so much.
"Are you busy in the afternoon?"
"Not really, why?"
"Mama wants to invite us to choose wedding clothes . Can you?"
"God willing. What time do I have to get ready?"
"Two o'clock in the afternoon my mom and I will pick you up."
"Can I take you?"
"Please."
"Thank you."
"Then I disconnect the phone. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam" the phone connection was cut off.
In three days he will be the husband of the woman. 'Reina wait for me to make you love me.'
***
Reina turned off her phone. He has to go home soon because Akira and his mother are going to his house soon. Reina also approached the bride who had just legally become a married couple.
"Dad I have to go home now."
"Will you go home?"
"Yes, Akira and his mother will be coming to my house soon. They invited me to pick a wedding dress." Clearly Reina.
"Well, invited the future husband turned out. Well, thanks for keeping me company. Hope you're good."
"Thank you, may you also be a sad family, mawadah, warahmah ya."
"Aamiin's."
"I'll say goodbye, assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam"

Reina is already in the boutique to choose her wedding dress with Risa, sakura and Akira.
"What kind of dress do you want?" Ask a tailor to Reina.
"I want something simple and not too fancy." Answer Reina.
"alright. Your body is ideal so you're lucky there are a lot of dresses that fit you."
Reina just smiled in response.
Akira looked at Reina who was picking on her dress. His movements, his way of speaking, everything he did made Akira unable to stop looking at him.
"Don't keep looking, it won't go away." Sakura temptation.
"Mama" Akira instantly distracts her when she is caught staring at Reina.
"Beautiful right?" Ask Sakura.
"Beautiful" replied Akira.
"You likey?"
"Like it very much"
"Try you knew him from a long time ago, you must now have children."
"What's the fuck you talking about?"
***
"How's it going in there?" Ask Akira who contacted Akai.
"Good"
"What project have you taken care of?"
"Hey. The bride-to-be shouldn't think about work, you just focus on your wedding."
"I just make sure everything goes well when I'm not there."
"You are, tomorrow you will get married but still have time to ask about work. Take it easy everything is in my control."
"I want to ask you."
"Please"
"What did you do the day before your wedding?"
"Hehehe... You nervous, huh?"
"No, I'm just bored of not being allowed to do anything."
"It's obviously because you're the bride."
"That sucks."
"Are you going to live there after marriage?"
"Yes I'll stay here, Reina wants it. I can't resist my girl's wishes."
"It looks like you've fallen for that woman."
"I don't know, but he's really attracted me to him. It's also my mom's wish."
"I thought it all started with an arranged marriage." Akai laugh
"You're quiet. Oh yeah, a few days after my wedding I want to go to Japan."
"Honeymoon?"
"You're still not satisfied."
"Your guess is just right. I'll come for the next one."
"Well, that'll be better."
The connection was interrupted by Akira.

The expected day arrived. Reina was ready with her wedding dress. She had just finished making up, she looked at her face in the mirror.
"Reina..." Hugged Aisyah from behind.
"You surprised me Aisyah."
"sorry. You look so pretty."
"You're too complimentary."
"I'm not lying, look without any make up you're beautiful let alone dressed like this. I'm sure a lot of people are impressed with you."
"It's up to you. You came with your husband?"
"Yes he's in front."
Their conversation stopped when Reina's father began to recite sacred sentences.
"Yes Akira Andrylaw, I marry and marry you to my daughter Reina Putri Ramdhani bint Ahmad Hanif Al-Ghazali with a dowry ring mas 200 grams paid in cash."
"I accepted the marriage and marriage of Reina Putri Ramdhani bint Ahmad Hanif Al-Ghazali with the dowry paid in cash."
"How's witness?"
"Well.."
"Alhamdulillah"
"Now you are his wife." Aisyah.
Reina hugged Aisyah tightly.
"Hey... Your dress will fall apart."
Risa goes into Reina's room to pick her up. Reina followed Risa along with Aisha. He looked at Akira who had just uttered a sacred sentence, their gazes met.
"Let's meet your husband." Risa.
Reina approached Akira and kissed his hand solemnly. After that Akira kissed Reina's forehead gently.
For the first time Reina saw Akira's face at this close distance. He looks handsome, with a tall body, thick eyebrows slightly narrowed eyes and a thin mustache. Akira wears a ring on his ring finger, as does Rein
The two of them stared at each other with deep eyes.
"Why are you so pretty?" Praise Akira.
Reina felt her cheeks blushing due to Akira's praise. He shifted his eyes with a look. But it turned out that Akira raised Reina's face to look at her face. Their gazes clashed.
"Don't keep your head down, look at me." Reina looked back into Akira's eyes. Those eyes, Reina liked to look at him for a long time.
"Now you can see my face longer, so don't look down." Akira smiled at Reina, which made Reina's cheeks even more blushing.
Several events had already passed, more and more guests were present at the party. Akira's overseas business colleagues were also present at the event. Reina's friends and doctors did not escape as well, all attending their wedding.
"Congratulations to you both." Akai.
"You came too." Reply Akira.
"I promised you."
"Reina introduced this to Akai my co-worker and best friend in Japan. And that's Ai's wife." Akira introduces them both.
"Reina" Reina gave a smile to the two of them.
"Akai"
"Dear to see you."
"You guys are so compatible. Reina, thank you for being his wife. But sorry if Akira is a bit stiff, he is like that." Akai's words were awarded a kick by Akira.
"Awh... What the hell are you doing?" Akai grimacing.
"Your mouth" Reina and Ai just laughed looking at the two.
"What did I say?"
"Can you leave quickly? Look behind you there's a lot waiting in line to shake." Pissed Akira.
"Okay, well, may you always be happy." Akai and his wife went to get food.
"Reina my dear friend, yes." Aisha hugged Reina.
"Thank you"
"You don't live in Japan, do you?" Ask Aisyah. Reina saw Akira.
"No, we're gonna stay here, but we're gonna play there." Reina Smile.
"Gee... When can we still meet?"
"Yes. Akira is my best friend Aisyah."
"about"
"Aisha. All right, we'll go first." Aisha left after that.

It was a very exhausting event for Reina. Now she was sitting resting in her room, the wedding dress she was still wearing. He looked at the room that had been decorated like a bridal room, a lot of roses attached there.
"You don't want to take a shower?" Ask Akira who just came out of the bathroom. He wears sleeping trousers and a plain white T-shirt that shows his muscular curves. Her wet and messy hair made her look dazzling.
"I'm gonna take a shower." Reina said trying to control herself to see the scenery in front of her.
It took only fifteen minutes for Reina to complete her bathing activities. As he exits the bathroom, he sees Akira who is busy with her laptop on the balcony of the room. He was confused as to how to behave to Akira. Finally he came out of the room to make coffee for Akira.
"Daddy, are you here?" Tanya Rina Reina's sister-in-law.
"I want to make coffee for Akira mbak, Mommy Rina is making milk?"
"Yes, yes first." Reina nodded.
***
Akira is still busy with his laptop, there is a sudden job he has to finish.
"I thought I'd make you some coffee." Reina put her coffee on the table and sat down with Akira.
"Arigato" Akira drinks coffee made by Reina.
"Three more days we're gonna move into my house, do you mind?" Ask Akira.
"No, I'll go with you." Akira glanced at Reina. Reina wasn't wearing her hood. She looks beautiful with long black hair that is allowed to unravel. He knew that Reina was agitated, probably because it was her first night.
"Are you tired?" Ask Akira.
"Lumayan" replied Akira.
"Sleep, I still have to do something." This time Akira looked at Reina. Seeing Reina who was still in doubt finally Akira kissed Reina's forehead. The shock made Reina surprised and left a red hue on her face.
"I know you're not ready, so I'm not asking for it right now." Akira smiled at reina. While Reina then hurriedly went to her bed to sleep.
About an hour ago Akira had just finished his job. He closed his laptop and put it on the nightstand.
Akira saw Reina who was asleep, even though she was sleeping, she was still beautiful. He lifted the blanket on Reina and began to lie down beside her. Akira still looked at Reina's sleeping face.
"Don't leave, don't leave Reina." Reina deliriously hugged Akira.
Akira smiled looking at the delirious Reina and hugged her.
"I'm not leaving you." Akira kissed Reina on the forehead and hugged her back.
