After a series of processions, Arumi finally sat next to Barra on the sofa. A sweet smile had not yet faded on Arumi's lips, as both her parents and in-laws noticed her.
While sitting together, he heard Barra continue to grumble.
"For a long time, when did they come home?" Barra muttered who he did not speak to.
He was seen loosening the tie he was wearing as well as the suit he had been wearing. He also rolled his sleeves up to his elbows. Without warning he immediately laid his body on the long sofa he sat with Arumi, he made Arumi's thigh as a sleeping pad. Barra took Arumi's hand and placed it on top of her head.
"Smoke my head, I want to sleep, tired!" Barra's orders were directly carried out by Arumi.
Not long after, Barra went into his sleep. Watching his son sleep. Miranda comes to Arumi, her new daughter-in-law.
"Arumi, thank you for marrying Barra. Thank you for making Mommy's son sleep this calm. Mommy prayed, may your marriage last, until death do you part. Please continue to be patient in the face of Barra's attitude and nature that is too selfish of you later, yes." Miranda said while working on Arumi's back slowly.
"Yes Madam, I will try to be a good wife to Mr. Barra, according to the wishes of the Madam and Mr."
"Arumi, don't call us by that call again, get used to calling us Mommy and Daddy, just like Barra called us. Because from today you've become our son too son."
"But Madam, this marriage must be hidden as Mr. Barra wishes, if I-I," Arumi said.
"You may call us Madam and Lord if in public, but if there is only us, your own family, make it a habit to call us Mommy and Daddy. Understood?"
"Mo-mommy." Arumin's tongue was an unusual mute calling Miranda with that call.
Just this time, he felt accepted and appreciated his presence, after the incident had happened.
"It's good that you understand, Mommy said to go home, sometime play to the mansion. Accompany Mommy if you have time."
"Yes Mommy, if there is a chance and time, Arumi will play there." Arumi answered with a happy smile. He kissed the back of his mother-in-law's hand, as the mother-in-law left. And Miranda replied by gently peeping her daughter-in-law's forehead.
Similarly, Arabella and Abhimanyu with Anaya, who finally came home with delivered back by Stave. Before Arabella came home, she advised her daughter to serve her husband well and to do all that Arabella had modeled so far on her two daughters.
Arumi nodded obediently and promised to do what her mother told her. When her family said goodbye and let her husband rest in her lap. Arumi was sad, because her sudden marriage was not attended by Adnan, the older brother. Not because they were not invited or told. According to Anaya. His brother refused to attend because he was not allowed by his wife.
The sun began to sink, the twilight began to come, with eyes that blinked Barra woke up from his sleep.
"Already sir, everyone has gone home, only Bi Ijah is left here. Mommy said, Dad, he'll work here, help me clean the apartment and provide food for you." Replied Arumi who was staring at Barra who was still lying on her lap.
"Hmmm. But I don't want to eat if it's not your cooking, he can help you with other jobs but not with cooking." Reply Barra who was also staring at him.
"Yes sir, I'll keep cooking for you."
"Good, be a submissive wife, now clean yourself and change your clothes." Sahut Barra who rose from his sleep.
He immediately stood up and left Arumi, he went to his private room and sat on the balcony of his room. He saw the twilight that began to disappear, changing with the malan that came.
"Well, I'm married now. I married a woman I didn't love. Right now he has my body, but it doesn't have my heart. Because of this heart of mine, it is very difficult to turn away from you, even though you have betrayed me." Barra said in the dark of the night.
For hours he was on the balcony, talking alone to the night, pouring out his heart about the owner of the heart who had turned away from him. Until he doesn't realize Arumi is behind him. Heard all her husband's outpouring of heart from the deepest.
"Sir Barra," called Arumi to Barra who was still standing looking at the night.
Barra turned for a moment towards Arumi, then again looked at the dark night, as deep as her heart at this moment. Although it was his wedding day, he did not feel a sense of happiness.
Arumi walked up to Barra who stood by holding her hands against the balcony guardrail. She was standing right next to her husband's body which looked tall and proportionate, perhaps if she took off the shirt she was wearing at the moment, surely the torn bread that always disturbs the faith of the women will be emblazoned.
Arumi followed in the footsteps of Barra who was staring at the sky that looked pitch-black, just like his heart at the moment. Starting a marriage with compulsion is not her goal as a woman. Of course, every woman always yearns for a lively and happy marriage with the man she loves. But the message of destiny says something else. He married full of simplicity and must be hidden, because at the request of the husband who could not accept this marriage sincerely.
"Sir, we will not know, what our fate will be like in the future, and what we will be. But clearly, while we are still breathing, we still have the choice to determine our way of life. Though only fate will determine everything." Said Arumi who remained staring at the sky.
"What do your words mean, Arumi?" Barra asked who was looking at Arumi who was still staring at the sky tonight.
"This marriage is not your goal, and I am not your goal. I can't chain the feet of someone who wasn't made for me. Keep trying to reach her love, and I promise I will not hinder any effort and effort you will make to bring her back. Even though someday I will have to leave your life with a wounded heart. Believe me I will be sincere and continue to pray every step of the Father to get happiness with him." Said Arumi with a heavy breath and felt choked.
Yep. A wife who is willing and accepting her husband still loves women in his past. Although their relationship is not yet present a sense of love, but when Ijab kabul has spoken a sense of wanting to have Barra completely has grown in the heart of Arumi.
For a moment Barra was silent, pervading every word Arumi said to her. There is pain and unwillingness Arumi to talk like that, but her love of death towards Pinkan makes her ignore the pain and inadmissibility of Arumi's words to her.
