The atmosphere at Kania's house was already crowded with invited guests, the penghulu had just arrived. Among the guests, they whispered to each other while occasionally watching Farhan, why was there not a single family of the groom accompanying?
When he was about to reach out to shake his hand, Farhan immediately raised his gaze to look at the two people who had just come and immediately took a seat beside him.
"I'm sorry everyone because we came late, we're both a family of brides. We are the Brother and Sister of the bridegroom." Alfan stressed the word 'brother and sister' Because he knew that was what Farhan wanted, everyone thought Nada was his sister Farhan.
Farhan subconsciously pulled back his hand that was already close to coming into contact with the hand of the ruler. His gaze could not be separated staring at Alfan and Nada alternately, more precisely paying attention to the costumes they were wearing. Did the two of them indeed intentionally come in wearing such a couple outfit, he asked inwardly.
While Nada, since coming and sitting not far from her husband she continued to sit her head. Until here his chest increasingly feel tight, right said mama Sarah he only hurt himself by choosing to survive. Maybe it was time to end what he should have done in the first place. For now she realized there was nothing more painful than realizing that Farhan meant so much to her, but she herself meant nothing to her husband. As Sarah's mother warned me a while ago. If you like something, let it go. If it comes back to you, it's yours. If not, it is not yours. Sometimes what we have sacrificed is not necessarily appreciated, and if patience is not enough to awaken, perhaps loss will support it. There comes a time in life we have to choose to turn the page, write another book or close it.
"Please start your Kabul ijab, sir." Said Alfan to the ruler, he glanced at Farhan at a glance who continued to pay attention to him and also Nada.
When the kabul ijab began, Nada unconsciously moved her hand to hold Alfan's hand, she seemed unaware if she had always kept her distance from men who were not mahramnya. The tightness that erupted made him unable to think clearly especially when the boisterous word SAH said which means that her husband had also become the husband of another woman.

Moments later, one-on-one the invited guests went home after congratulating the two brides. Until the turn of Nada and Alfan who also approached the two brides to congratulate.
"Congratulations, Mas, may you be a happy family, warahmah." Tone when shaking hands with Farhan, and Farhan can nod slowly. He frowned as Nada moved to shake hands with Kania, just now he felt the hand of Nada so cold was his wife sick?
"Congratulations, may your little family always be blessed." Said Nada while smiling faintly at the younger sister who had become her honey. Perhaps this is what people say a smile carries wounds, even though he smiles but his heart hurts.
"Thank you for coming to our wedding, I don't think anyone will come. And I also did not think that it turns out that Mas Farhan has a very beautiful sister."
Alfan who heard Kania praise Nada, smiled slanted. If only Farhan's second wife had known that the woman he praised was Farhan's first wife, I don't know what would happen.
When Nada turned around after congratulating the two brides, Alfan walked behind Nada and passed by the newlyweds without congratulating him. For him it is not necessary, without congratulations Farhan will remain happy with his own life, even if the younger brother is really happy.
"Wait..." Call Farhan, when Nada will get into the car from the door Alfan just opened.
Alfan and Nada simultaneously turned their heads.
"Don't look at us like that, never see anyone wearing a couple like this?" Alfan said sharply, because Farhan kept looking at him and Nada alternated like he was suspecting something. "Why do you call us, come inside later Your new wife is looking for you." Continues insinuating.
"I have nothing to do with you, I just want to talk to Nada not with you." replied Farhan no less ketus, to this day he still feels annoyed with his cousin's brother who a few days ago came to ask him to separate from Nada.
"It just so happens, actually I also have something I want to talk to Mas Farhan about" Nada said. She stepped forward and stopped right in front of her husband.
"What does Mas Farhan want to talk to me about?" Tanya Nada, she looked at her husband with teary eyes.
"No, actually I just wanted to ask you about Mama." Said Farhan, some days do not meet foster longing, but he also felt upset because his mother did not want to approve his marriage with Kania.
"Mama's situation is fine, and if Mas asks why Mama didn't come, I think Mas Farhan knows the answer." Tone Vocabulary.
Farhan seemed to nod slowly, "Then, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ask later.
For a moment Nada lowered her head, and a moment later she again raised her gaze to look at her husband with a fixed and doubtless time in her heart.
"Mas, if one day Mas Farhan finds the figure of me who is able to smile without you believe me, I once cried because I could not afford to lose you. I have embraced your name in thousands of do'a, I have asked God to take you and time to return as it was. I once believed that without you my life would no longer be happy. Until in the end Allah made me aware in His way, that giving you up is the only way..." Tada said, then he turned his back to Farhan and that second his tears fell.
Feeling unable, Nada finally got into the car and Alfan immediately closed the door after Nada entered and then he also stepped forward to stand in front of Farhan.
"Listen Farhan, do you want to know what a sincere man's evil looks like? He won't come back to sculpt you, he'll be evil to himself. He would have the heart to make himself for days thinking hard and wondering. Why would... Why would... Andwhy? He could hurt himself by letting how messy his lifestyle, diet, sleep patterns and also his heart. And even worse, he let his energy run out just to pretend to be okay in front of others. That's the tone you don't know!"
Alfan let out his breath violently. It was so bad to beat up Farhan who had made Nada cry but as much as possible he refrained from making a fuss. He got in his car before he actually did violence to his cousin's sister. Seeing Farhan's face really made his emotions peak.
After Alfan's car had sped up, Farhan stared at the car until it disappeared from his sight. The words of Tone and Alfan seemed to swirl around in his sense of hearing.
