THERE'S ALWAYS A LEANING PLACE
Edi-Mira's Wedding

Edi walked to the wedding venue. He flanked Hendra and Mr. Candra. He sat in a chair covered in white cloth.

The guard is ready with other officers from KUA. The man who looked young checked the completeness of marriage requirements. Mira's father sits next to the ruler, facing Edi.

Edi's heart began to play an irregular rhythm. If you are heard wearing a stethoscope, maybe the ear that hears it becomes itchy.

After all was done, the ruler began to question Edi and Pak Handoyo.

“Nak Mas Edi Wibowo, is it steady to invite Nak Ayu Miranti Lestari to be invited to walk together across the household ark?” ask penghulu.

“God willing,” replied Edi steady.

Penghulu turned to Pak Handoyo, then asked for the readiness of Mr. Handoyo.

“Bapak Handoyo, are you ready to accept Nak Mas Edi Wibowo as part of your family? Is it all sincere?”

Mr. Handoyo also replied steadily, "Ready. God willing, all sincere without coercion.”

“Pak Handoyo will marry myself or represent to me?” ask the ruler again.

“I'm alone, Sir.”

“Good. I can do it, right? Or need to explain?”

“Can already.”

Again Mr. Handoyo gave a steady answer.

After giving a little explanation, the ruler invited Pak Handoyo and Edi to say kabul ijab. Mr. Handoyo shook Edi's hand tightly.

“Bismilbornrahmanirrahiim. Son Mas Edi Wibowo!” exclaim Mr. Handoyo.

“I!” edi fast.

“I marry and marry Brother to my daughter Miranti Lestari for yourself Brother with Dowry in the form of a set of prayer tools and gold jewelry weighing 50 grams paid in cash.”

“I received the marriage and marriage of Miranti Lestari daughter of Mr. Handoyo to myself with the dowry paid in cash,” said Edi loudly and in one breath.

“How are the witnesses?” ask penghulu.

The people present in the room compactly replied, “Sah!”

They say hamdallah continued prayer for the bride.  Shortly thereafter, Mira was guided by her mother and in-law to approach Edi, who was legally her husband. He kissed Edi's hand and avenged a friendly kiss on the

forehead Mira.

“Don't be long, Ed! Later if you want long!”  chirped Mr. Candra.

The audience laughed at Mr. Candra's words. Meanwhile, Edi and Mira looked down in shame.

The event continued the reading of the sight and the signing of documents. After that, the ruler gave a little advice to the two brides.

After taking pictures with the family, the two brides took a break. After the sublime, they joined in the pelaminan. Edi and Mira wore modified Javanese traditional clothing.

Although not as luxurious as the wedding reception Via and Farhan, the wedding of Edi and Mira was festive. The guests present were almost no pause.

At one of the tables, 2 men and 2 women who were not young again looked so happy. They enjoyed the dish unceasingly.

“Finally, we can enjoy what is called a party at the hotel. It turns out this way, huh?” said Mr. Nono

“Good decoration. Must be expensive,” said Bu Inah.

“This alone is not a 5-star hotel, this is great. Ma'am Via's wedding time is definitely better than this.” Mbok Marsih.

They kept talking about the party. Their mouths also barely stopped crammed with food.

Where are their employers so they can be free? Via and Farhan meet guests who are some of their business colleagues. Via doesn't leave Zayn alone. He carried her, took her wherever he went. When the baby is sleepy, Via lulls in the crib they are carrying and is placed in the dressing room not far from the reception venue.

Ratna and Salsa also helped receive guests. They were both wearing the same dress, given Via. Yes, the immediate family of both Mira and Edi were given the same clothes by Via. While the Via and Farhan families were also no different, wearing uniform.

This time, Raatna was not as silly as usual. He looks a little moody. Despite trying to cover up behind the festivities, Ratna could not escape from Via. He could not dodge when Via asked about his problem.

“Why, Rat? I noticed you were lethargic since? What's the problem?”

“Eh, Via. Eng—no, kok,” replied Ratna nervously.

“You can lie to Salsa, but not to me. Any pa? You still consider us brothers?” Via kept urging Ratna.

Ratna. He looked at the end of his shoes.

“Ratna,” calls Via made him shocked.

Via took a deep breath.

“Now recovery stay, right?”

“Iya, including his mental. He was stressed, he could not accept the situation. Her mother still did not want to go home, remained in the Netherlands, followed her sister. She does not care about the condition of her child and husband,” complained Ratna.

Via embracing Ratna's shoulder. He himself did not know how to do it either.

“Try tomorrow we think again, yes! I told Mas Farhan how good it was. Now enjoy the party! I'm out first, look at Baby Zayn. I slept in the dressing room,” Via said goodbye.

Ratna nodded. He rubbed his face neutralizing his feelings.

“Ratna!’ a voice of a man calling.

Ratna turned to the source of the voice. Rio approached her. The guy was wearing a satin batik of color

light brown. He looks more mature.

“You alone?” ask Rio.

“I—iya. Who is Rio?” Ratna asked back.

“Your name,” Rio replied while developing a wide smile.

Ratna smiled clumsyly. This time he couldn't bring out his silliness. In addition to Dika's problem, near Rio his heart was like playing dangdut music.

“You saw Azka? I've been nyari but did not meet,” said Rio.

“No,” replied Ratna briefly.

“Then can you accompany me? We sit down, yuk!” bring Rio.

Ratna's pounding. He's really nervous.

“You've eaten?” ask Rio again.

Ratna shakes. His appetite has been wandering since yesterday. The condition of Dika which became

the cause.

“Take food first, yuk! Or do I want to get it?” Rio.

“Take it yourself. Later Mas Rio take it not according to my taste,” said Ratna who began to be able to style her heart.

They go to the buffet table to get food. Seeing Ratna's portion of food, Rio's forehead wrinkled.

“Again diet? How little?”

“Liar can be filled others. If it is a lot, I cannot enjoy it. Kan dear,” replied Ratna.

Rio laughed at Ratna's reply. He began to observe the girl who was enjoying the slow food.

“Funny this girl too. I think he is the one who likes to make Via laugh when they are together. Her face alone looks funny,” inner Rio.

“Mas Rio see Ratna continue?” protest Ratna who realized herself to be the object of Rio's gaze.

The guy was surprised. He immediately developed a smile to cover up his nervousness.

“Can't be? I can see him using my eyes, ngak pinjem have someone else,” Rio replied casually.

“Iya, yes. But, pity the food on the plate. Their time Mas Rio cuekin, anyway,” protested Ratna again.

“Iya, huh. I watched them, nih.”

Just as Rio was eating his food, the tail of his eyes caught a familiar figure. He was with a girl. Rio felt foreign to the girl.

“Azka...” murmured Rio.

“Why, Mas?” ask Ratna.

“Eh, no. Just continue eating you.”
