My Lecturer My Beloved
Iqbal and Lisa's wedding day.
The day Iqbal was waiting for arrived as well. Where today, he and the girl he had long been waiting for would officially become husband and wife. He looks paced, because he was nervous and worried, afraid Lisa changed her mind during the sacred event they both.
"Can't you stop pacing?!" exclaimed Kevin who felt dizzy to see Iqbal passing back and forth in front of his eyes.
"I can't calm down, Vin. What if Lisa suddenly runs away and refuses to marry me?" bright Iqbal riled up while landing his body on the floor, rendering it onto the bed.
"You just calm down! that's not gonna happen. I dare guarantee it." said Kevin soothingly, with a sweet smile on Kevin's lips.
"How can you be so sure? you didn't say a no-no to her?" The corner of Iqbal's eyes was drawn upwards, staring suspiciously at Kevin.
"You take it easy, I didn't say anything, just a little advice," Kevin said.
The sacred event finally went well. What Iqbal feared did not happen at all. Now he and Lisa are legally husband and wife.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
After Iqbal and Lisa were lawfully married, the reception was also held that day. Lisa looks beautiful in a white wedding dress, with a diamond-studded crown on her head.
"Please smile sincerely! don't be forced to do that!" Iqbal whispered right in Lisa's ear.
"Don't force me! you should be grateful that I can still smile." Lisa whispered again, with a bad feeling.
"But, to be honest, your smile does not deserve to be called a smile. It was more worthy of being called a 'freak'. Just imagine the lion grinning again, that's the shape of your smile now." ledek Iqbal, make Lisa's lips pursed, more coxed.
"By the way I'm happy, I don't care" Lisa concluded, and refocused on the guests who were back in line to congratulate them both. Suddenly their attention was turned toward another stage, where the band they paid to enliven the party. Where there's Kevin standing there gallantly.
"Esteemed guests, you know? now I am so happy, because Iqbal, my senior brother went to college, could be my sister-in-law.I used to have to call him brother, now he has to call me brother. How fair is life, right? All this time you've only seen, the cold face, but you never know, if this person who is always cold-faced, has a very good voice. You must be wondering how good his voice is? same, I'm curious too. So let's get him to go on stage and sing a song for us! give a big round of applause for our king tonight!" exclaim Kevin.
lqbal glanced sharply at Kevin, who immediately pretended to turn his gaze elsewhere.
"Can you really sing? you better not go there! later you will be a laughing stock." whatever Lisa's intentions in her speech.between underestimating Iqbal's ability to sing, or maintaining the pride of the man who has become her husband, she said, only he knows. But Iqbal clearly considers that Lisa is now underestimating her abilities.
With a long sigh, accompanied by the cheers of the guests telling him to sing, Iqbal finally stood up, received the microphone, prepared to sing.
"All right! my voice is not very good for singing. But tonight I'm going to sing a song. But this song, I didn't present it to all of you, as my sister-in-law said earlier. But this is what I sing to my wife. Thank you, my dear, for accepting me as your husband. I cannot promise that I will give you happiness forever. But obviously, I will always try, to always be happy for you. One of my favorite songs is, 'I wanna grow old with you' and now I'm gonna sing it for you. Because I really want to age with you." The rumbling sound of applause began to echo, after Iqbal completed his 'short speech.
"Currently, did he think, with him saying that, I would feel flattered and overwhelmed. That will never happen." murmured Lisa, who was actually slightly opposite to her heart.
The sound of music that will accompany the song to be sung by Iqbal, touching the ears of everyone who hears. While Lisa closed her ears, closed her eyes, with a racing heart, afraid that the sound of Iqbal would embarrass herself. However, the two Lisa's netra instantly grew to perfection, as soon as Iqbal started singing. Iqbal's voice was not as bad as he thought, it was very melodious, making Lisa's body cringe to hear it.
Another day without your smile
Another day just passes by
And now I know
How much it means
For you to stay right here with me
The time we spent apart
Will make our love grow stronger
But it hurts so bad
I can't take it any longer
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
A thousand miles between us now
It causes me to wonder how
Our love tonnage (our love tonnage)
Remains so strong (remains so strong)
It makes our risk (it makes our risk)
Right all along
The time we spent apart
Will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can't take it any longer
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
Things can come and go
I know but
Baby I believe
Something's burning strong between us
Makes it clear to me
Back to chorus.
Iqbal sings with passion, because the song is in accordance with his heart, who really wants to age with Lisa, and died lying in Lisa's arm and there himself in the eyes of the woman who is now his wife. The sound of applause reverberated after Iqbal finished with his singing and returned to sit beside Lisa.
"How, is my voice sweet?" Iqbal asked, glancing one eye.
Lisa rolled her eyeballs and glanced at Iqbal. "Currently, ordinary! I'd rather hear the kingpin meowing than hear you sing" said Lisa, mentioning her beloved cat's name, turning her gaze the other way, lest Iqbal see the lie in her bead.
Iqbal let out a loud sigh, feeling disappointed by Lisa's words. Though earlier, he hoped that with the words and songs he delivered could melt Lisa's heart.
The silence lingered for quite a while between the two of them. Iqbal sat with both hands resting on his thighs. While Lisa, busy with her daydreams who felt a little guilty on Iqbal. However, because his ego is still high, making it difficult for him to say the word 'sorry'.
"The guests have started to go home, may I, go into the room? I was tired, wanting to rest, "the first sentence that came out of Lisa's mouth, ever since she heard Iqbal singing, stopped the silence that was created between the two of them.
"Please! do I need to take you?" as Iqbal hoped, Lisa replied 'yes'.
"No need! I could walk on my own." back to the disappointment of sneaking into Iqbal's heart hearing, Lisa's refusal of her good intentions to deliver him to the room.
Iqbal again sighed with a single bang. "Yes! you careful. I'll catch up with you later, when everything comes home." said Iqbal covering up his disappointment.
