The Substitute Bride of my Best Friend
Before Disaster

The wedding preparations of Shaka and Ziva can be said to be almost one hundred percent. All the necessary needs are done. Starting from the building, wedding souvernir, catering, wedding decorations, wedding dresses and other needs have been prepared by Rini with the help of her friends-Arumi. The two middle-aged women have been busy since a month ago when they learned that Ziva received a proposal from a young lawyer named Shaka Abiman.

After waiting for a month, finally the wedding ceremony and wedding reception Shaka and Ziva was held in a luxury hotel ballroom in Jakarta. Since five in the morning, Rini assisted Arumi was busy monitoring the final preparations before finally the sacred pledge of marriage was uttered by the bridegroom.

"You make sure the sound system there can light up when my son says the sacred promise of marriage in front of everyone. Don't get in trouble! I don't want to make the slightest mistake during the event. Understood?" rini warned wedding organizers.

The WO in charge named Helena nodded her head with a big smile, it is very understandable why Rini is so chatty today because as a stakeholder of course he does not want one small mistake that can damage the family's good name.

"Doctor Rini is calm, I can make sure all the preparations have been completed. There will be no mistakes when the event starts" Helena replied.

"You heard yourself, didn't you, what Helena said. You better leave all this business to him and the team. You ... just pray, ask God that today's event runs smoothly without any obstacles." Arumi tried to calm down Rini who looked a little nervous. The palms of the friends sweat and feel cold.

The clingy fingers clutch the hands of a true friend so tightly, as if to give energy to the woman next to him. "Come, let's go to the make up room now. Your candidate must have been waiting there. For business here, let Helena and her team take care."

Arumi's melodious voice is like a magic spell, making Rini obey the orders of the friend.

"Helena, I trust you all. Please arrange it as best you can" Arumi said before leaving the ballroom. The woman smiled warmly at everyone.

Meanwhile, in a hotel room that is quite spacious looks a girl with narrow eyes is standing staring at the reflection in the mirror with a feeling of uncertainty. There is sadness, disappointment but also happiness at the same time. Even though the girl's heart was broken to pieces because at exactly nine o'clock her first love would make a sacred promise before the ruler, witnesses and also some of his closest relatives but he is also happy for the marriage of Shaka and Ziva.

"It's time you let go of your love for Shaka, Ra. It is not good to keep harboring those feelings while the man you love has become the property of another woman. It would be sinful if you kept thinking about people's husbands. What do fathers, mothers and others say when they know that you love someone's husband.

"You should learn from your previous household experience before marrying Dad. Our household was destroyed by the presence of a third person. If you continue to nurture love for Shaka, it is not the same as giving a gap to the devil to plunge you into a great sin."

"You have returned to Indonesia, do not rule out the possibility that you will continue to meet because your parents are friendly with Shaka. As a result of meeting often, the love in the self is getting bigger and arises a sense of wanting to have what has become the property of others. If you are tempted by the seduction of the devil and then try to take Shaka from Ziva, are you not the same as your former best friend? What would your parents say if they knew a child who was raised lovingly became an actor? They must be very disappointed in your attitude, Ra."

"Are you willing to make your mother live unsettled because she continues to get gossip from others due to giving birth to a child who is now an actor? You have the heart to see a middle-aged man who is now getting old being scorned by hospital karwayan due to having a child like you? The answer is no, right? Therefore, stop right now before it's too late!" said Zahira speaking to herself as she continued to stare at the reflection of herself from the mirror.

The shadow of a teenage boy who stood firm, valiant in front of a group of fifteen-year-old children with sharp eyes like an eagle returned great. How great was the teenager when he beat up four seniors who sat in the third grade Junior High. The teenager was aided by Ghani and Zavier beat their four seniors to death as they were caught stealing English PR books to make a little girl cry a mouthful.

Unknowingly Zahira's lips revealed a faint smile. How can he be crazy about someone when they were teenagers. They even just graduated from elementary school. A monkey's love that lasts for a dozen years. It sounds silly, but he felt it all.

"Yeah, it's time for me to bury all the good memories while still with Shaka. Soon she belongs to someone else and I don't deserve to keep the taste for that guy. Although it's heavy, but I'm sure I can get through this." Trying to smile even though the heart is like being pierced by a sharp knife, sticking it through the bone of the sumsung.

Zahira realizes that it is too late and she has no chance of having a full Shaka. If indeed they are not a match but at least he and Shaka can be good friends even though there are limits that must be maintained because one of them already has a partner.

"Sister Zahira, let's go down. It's time we made up. Mother and Aunty Rini must have been waiting." Shakeela's loud voice rang out to make Zahira look back.

Zahira nodded and smiled forcedly. Without saying, the girl walked with shaky steps towards the door leaf. Hands outstretched forward, then turned the door handle. The beats of heels sounded along with the rhythm of the girl's heart that began to irregular.

Goodbye to the memories of the past. Thank you for these dozen years always present to accompany my solitude during studying in the land of Sakura. Goodbye also Shaka, may you live happily with Ziva, Zahira's mind along with the shut door.
