The day Khairi was waiting for finally arrived, Today is her wedding day. The man still hopes Afrin will come. However, until this moment there was no news of the girl. He was determined to wait until three o'clock, as promised.
Time shows at 12:30. Khairi was ready with a suit he wore and also with a black peci. The man looked at his face in the mirror, although his body was now a little thin. However, it does not reduce its assertiveness.
The door was knocked by someone from outside. Mama Merry entered the room. The woman smiled at her son.
"Mama's son is very handsome" said Merry with a smile that was replied by the man with a smile as well. A smile that looks bland in the eyes of anyone who sees it.
"Are you very sure that you will continue this event? Until this moment there is no news of Afrin or of your men."
"Whatever happens, I'll keep going, Ma."
"But Mama won't, if you get blasphemed by people because the bride doesn't come."
"Khairi is sure Afrin will come, Ma."
"You can't lie to Mama" Merry said. "Mama also saw that there was doubt in your eyes."
Khairi lowered his head. It is true as his mother said. These few days he thought about it too. It seemed like the man already had no chance of being together with Afrin, but as a man, Khairi had already said that he would wait for the girl. Then he would wait for her until the time that had been said before.
"Hi, brother! I didn't expect you to get married so soon. Though I thought you'd be an old bachelor" said a young man named Adit.
He is one year younger than Khairi. Mama Mery's son from her marriage to her ex-husband. All this time the young man lived with his father abroad. Whenever Merry missed her son, she would go pay a visit there.
"Well, did you come here?" ask Khairi with a ketus. His sister never came home.
"Gue not long! Once you're legitimate, I'm back again."
"Gue didn't tell you to come either."
"Aalah .. I also just came along already ngusir I keep. Know that I am there just enjoy my relaxing time."
"As far as lo. Right here! Don't you want to hug me?'
The young man immediately hugged his brother. They are not so close. However, their relationship was quite good as a half-brother.
"Gue kangen very similar lo," said Khairi slowly.
"I miss you too, brother" Adit said
Both of them vented longings that had long been pent up. Adit used to hate Khairi because he thought his brother had taken his mother. However, his father explained that he and Merry could not unite and until anytime his mother would love and love him. Finally the young man understood and apologized to his mother and brother
"Had, don't be long. jij*k me," said Khairi with a little push his sister's body.
"Who would embrace long, unclean, too" Adit said, shaking off their former embrace.
The door was knocked by someone from outside. Khairi immediately asked that person to enter. Two women came in with a bow. Their bodies also shook with fear.
"Sorry, Sir. Non Afrin asked us to leave her house" said a makeup artist.
Khairi's face flushed. He was really angry this time. They are really unreliable.
"Sorry, Sir. If we don't go, then we'll be dragged by the guards because that's why we're gone."
Khairi rubbed his face violently, it turned out that Afrin really did not want to marry him.
"Mama told you, right, you better cancel this show."
"Can't, Ma. I told you I would wait until three. I am a man who has to keep his word. I'll wait until three. It's been one hour and five minutes. Come on, let's go there! All the guests must have been waiting" Khairi said with a smile, though in his heart he was crying.
Khairi walked followed by Mama Meri and her sister steps that usually look sturdy and full of authority, now feel weak and helpless. All his strength disappeared with Afrin's love for the man The closer he approached the hall, the slower he was, unable to enter the room.
Slowly, but surely. Khairi opened the door to enter the hall. Just as the door opened, the man was pecking at his place, he had no idea what he was seeing. Without realizing it, a single tear had fallen on his cheek. Not for sadness, but for happy tears.
In front of the ruler, a woman was seated wearing a white kebaya, complete with a hijab and jasmine ornaments on her head. What a sight that so shakes his heart.
"Sister, why are you standing here?" ask Adit. "That's brother-in-law, huh? It's gorgeous!"
Khairi quickly rubbed the corner of her eyes. She did not want to look good on this happy day. Yes, the woman sitting in front of the penghulu is Afrin. The girl looked beautiful with her smile. Aydin approached Khairi who was still standing on the spot.
"How about, anyway, Bro? Lo promise, right, my clock is the same. It's been one hour and fifteen minutes! Does the show want to be canceled?" ask Aydin who deliberately wants to tease the groom.
"No, no, sorry I'm late. Don't cancel it" Khairi said, making everyone in the room laugh. Even Afrin smiled.
"Yes already, sana! Why are you still standing here."
"Ah, yes." Khairi walked quickly towards the place where his future wife was sitting.
"So the road was really catapulted, now it's like people are chasing the thief," grumbled Adit who got a sharp look from the brother. However, the young man did not care. She chose to sit next to the male guest.
Mama Merry can breathe a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the girl would not come. However, his dislike for Afrin still remained in his heart. The middle-aged woman did not like Afrin's attitude as if treating her son like a slave.
"Sorry, yes, dear. I'm late" Khairi said in a whisper that Afrin answered with a nod. "You're so beautiful today" he continued.
"Sorry, this is about to start the show, do you want to talk?" ask pak penghulu.
"Please begin, sir" Khairi said with a smile.
The man was relieved and very grateful. What he feared did not happen. God still betrothed him to the idol, but he was still curious, how could Afrin be here? The makeup artist said they were evicted by Emran's family. The problem later he asked, the important thing is that he can now marry his heart.
