SUDDEN MARRIAGE CONTRACT (Sudden Marriage Contract)
Story For the Story of Decorating

Devana could only pensively listen to Anton Lee's explanation in front of Demian.

They sat all three in the main room of the late Gunawan pavilion, with serious chatter.

Anton Lee invites Devana to come with him back to the city of K.

"I strongly object to Anton's invitation! Sorry, right now for the permission and safety of Devana and Ericko is in my hands. I am in charge of the circumstances of the youngest daughter and first granddaughter of my late Brother!"

"I understand what you mean, Bro! But the day after tomorrow is the hundred days gone by my cousin, Chandra Son Lee Sukoharjo. The late Papa Kandung Ericko Putra Lee Sukoharjo."

Devana could only stare blankly at Anton's face.

"I'm not gonna force you, Dev! But..., do you not want to pay your last respects to the late Chandra? At least, come just for a few hours to meet the relatives so well come from far away paying attention."

Anton's words were calm, but were able to make Devana's body instantly tense.

How can I forget tomorrow? The hundredth day of my late husband's departure? Why am I so indifferent and busy thinking and taking care of myself without remembering Chandra? Oh my...! What kind of wife am I?

Devana.

"Tomorrow, a hundred days, Chandra?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I'll pack up clothes and Ericko's needs!"

"The deva? Are you going with Anton's dude?"

Demian surprised. He did not expect that the woman who was being patted it could be so easy to take the opportunity by following people who could endanger the safety of his soul.

"Don't worry, Bro Demian! Ericko is my nephew,"

"I'm coming!" the word Demian made Anton and Deva shocked.

"It's okay, brother! It's a family event. And I'll make sure we're back in the afternoon!" tukas Devana calms Demian's troubled heart.

"How can you forget the kidnapping that almost took your life a few days ago, Devan?" demian panicked.

"What's? Devana kidnapped? When?" Anton half-cried in shock.

Both Demian and Devana addressed his question in silence. Demian forgot, it was an internal matter of their family that should not be revealed to anyone else. Finally he could only divert his talk by forcing him to come along.

"Sister! Deva please, let Deva be with Ericko? There will be no such thing as that time, for sure! Deva is sure, we'll be fine!"

"Did you worry about Deva and Ericko's safety around me?"

"Yes!" demian replied firmly.

"Isn't Devana very dangerous in the middle of her original family, all of whom are the children of Pak Gunawan Wicaksono's first wife, while Deva is his cheating son?"

Demian looked at Anton unblinkingly.

Anton Lee has learned of Devana's status. The possibility of their family story has leaked widely among entrepreneurs.

Even now Demian's mind also began to open and worried. It could be both parents and aunt and omnya who do not want the existence of Devana after knowing the reality.

Devana and Ericko are finally only able to be seen until they enter Anton Lee's vehicle and disappear behind the large gate of the palace pavilion of his late grandfather.

Demian went straight to the room to pick up the key to his motorbike. He wanted to ask his parents about the abduction of Devana and Akila. But previously he also wanted to spy on the state of the Sukoharjo family.

His heart was filled with great curiosity.

How about Devana get away from the rich family that used to be her Grandpa's co-worker. Even to the point of being able to make a contract marriage agreement with Georgino Gunawan which turned out to be a fake Gege.

Eighteen-year-old Demian feels outright lied to by Satria disguised as Georgino. That's very painful. And it's only natural that Papa, Mama and Om-Om and the other Tantenya are furious. Moreover, Satria even acted like the Great Lord's favorite grandson who was always flattered and adored. He felt often his Grandpa and Grandma compared to the deceiver.

...••••••••...

In the corporate mess, Gege aka Satria is waiting for his sister to change clothes. He took Akila away this Sunday morning to shove their mother's grave.

Throughout the journey Akila told stories with passion and cheer. In contrast to Gege/Satria who was more quiet and just smiled in response to the stories of Akila.

"Sister!"

"Why? I think there's another problem, right?" guess Akila made Gege shake fast.

"No, no koq problem!"

"From now on, my brother was just smiling. Usually the response is more, but this time...! Mmm can you guess? Screaming again, huh?"

"What the hell, baby sister? You know what you are, hm?!?"

Gege rubbed Akila's head gently.

"Sister,... Are you really just a contract marriage? Are there no feelings between you? What...., Brother has a girlfriend? And can I not meet with Sister's boyfriend? Is that girl as good as Devana's sister? Or have other advantages to make Brother not budging and have no intention to approach Kak Devana for real? What..., because sister Devana is the widow of one child? What,"

Czechiiit...

Gege stopped his car suddenly. Then park in a small, deserted lake.

Akila was surprised, pale pias looking at the older brother. Like a flurry of people, Gege got out of the car and pulled a lighter, lit a kretek cigarette and sucked it deep.

The smoke seemed to calm the feelings of Gege's troubled heart. Just like his real sister's guess.

Akila was silent for a long time. Calming his nervous heart trembled at the emotional stability of the older brother. Shortly after, he came out. And stood pecking accompany Gege who daydreamed while smoking the cigarette.

"May I fall in love with that angel-hearted man, Akila?"

Akila flabbergasted. He looked at his brother's calm but mysterious face.

"Why? Who forbids people from falling in love? Deva's sister is a widow, not a wife. And she's single too!"

"But our status is now different, Akila!"

"I mean Brother?"

"Who is he now, who am I. Do I need an explanation from me?"

Akila smile. It turns out his guess was right.

"Why is it so difficult for Big Brother to express the feelings he has in his heart? Reveal, Brother...! Do not regret it later!"

"Hhh...! Instead I was afraid, afraid of regret if I revealed this heart!"

"I guess big brother is a gentle guy turned out to be cute too! Hadeuh suck! Gini is very yes, have a brother who turned out to be a coward!" ledek Akila made Gege grin while catching Akila's neck shaft pretending to be violent.

"What do you know, baby sister, about love?"

"Haha...! You know a lot! To be sure, my love is not as dramatic as Brother's. Although the smell is more or less the same, because of status and strata. But certainly, Akila never get a beautiful love despite the opposition of both parents. At least, ever have it! Haha..."

"Just ever have, it's tragic, Akilaaa!!! Hicks..."

Gege throws his kretek cigarette towards the lake.

"Sister, don't litter me! Ruining the natural scenery!" akila murmur.

"Sorry! Sorry, baby sister!"

The two brothers joined hands and laughed.

"need help? Need support? (Akila patted her chest) Leave, let this Matchmaker move!"

"No, no need! Don't interfere in my love affairs! Promise, baby sister? I don't like it when my love struggles for reinforcements. The effect, it is not gentle at all!"

"Chose! When fighting? Where's movement? Just monitoring, it's not movement. Hadeuh, you have a model sister like this! Tar if kak Devana is taken, new money. Frustration, heartbreak, heartache, watch out for suicide!"

"Yassalam...! Got koq ngeselin's sister from still a baby? Tau gini kupites while still cute first!"

"Yeah!!! Nyesel, it turns out my brother sucks bad!"

Ruckus after hilarious commotion adorned their journey to the final resting of the Blessed Mother who was granted her prayers.

Both were reunited in kindness.

God has paved the way for these two people to return to fighting to live a life ahead.

The sky is not always blue, the sun is not always bright. But change the color of the day. Even day and night change tirelessly even though the circumstances are not always the same.
