"It's not a good time to joke, Van. My head is already dizzy with this matter, so please don't add any more trouble! It's not funny" Kezia said after a moment of silence.
"I'm serious, Zee. If you agree, now I'm going to your house. I'll replace Abi as groom. Abi never loved you, Zee. I'll be happy with you."
Kezia's tears suddenly dripped on hearing that. Devan's serious-sounding voice made him moved. "Van, are you seriously in love with me? Have you never believed in love? That's why you like changing girlfriends, right?"
"That's because I'm nunguin you stopped loving Juno," Devan said, "you've always waited for her love, but you got rejected as well, right? I was about to move forward when you were heartbroken, but I was the same help from Abi. I'm also sorry, if for example at that time I didn't leave you with him, maybe ...."
Devan's voice disappeared behind Kezia's phone, but Kezia could faintly hear the sound of sobs behind her phone.
"You cry, Van?" kezia asked a little surprised. This is the first time Kezia heard the man who is famous by the nickname Casanova man was crying even if only on the phone.
"I'm sorry, Zee. Why didn't I reveal my feelings? Fight for patience beside you. I'm sure one day your heart will melt too, because our friendship is long enough."
Kezia was getting late in the crying. Honestly, if he was told to choose between Devan and Abizar, maybe he would choose Devan. During this time Devan is famous for playboy because often change girlfriends. However, Kezia knew Devan only wanted to make the women happy, because those who first expressed feelings.
"But it's too late now, Van. Rice has become porridge. I'll soon be married to the father of the child I bear."
"No! We're not too late, Zee. There's still time to end this. Abizar would have agreed if I replaced him as your husband" Devan said.
"Then what about my family, Abi family, and ... your family? They're definitely going against your decision, Van."
"I don't care."
Kezia sighed violently, while wiping her increasingly rushing tears out. "Hold me, Van. I thank you for loving me so much .., but getting married is not just a sacred bond between two people. Getting married also ties up a lot of people around us. Moreover, our family already knows everything about the cause of this marriage to occur. Do you think your parents would agree if their child married a woman who was already impregnated by her own brother?"
"But, Zee—"
"Please don't be selfish, Van! I don't want to lose a friend like you. You have always been there for me. Thanks, but I can't marry you."
"Acstance ...." Devan's voice sounded soft and clear.
"Sir, why haven't you finished the makeup yet?" Aruna who suddenly came made Kezia aghast. He immediately wiped the remaining tears that were still on his cheeks, then pretended to be ordinary.
"Udah first, yeah, Van. There's Aruna. You will still be my best friend. I'm waiting for you here to be my wedding guest. You're coming, yeah!" kezia shouted a little slowly, then decided on the call because Devan did not want to answer his question.
"Whose phone, anyway?" asked Aruna after their distance was closer. Aruna squinted at the sight of her two brother's neutrals slightly puffy, "Sister cry?" tanyanya.
Kezia simply rubbed his face rough, then glared towards the glass cabinet where MUA was. "Moreover the makeup, Ma'am!" the cry on MUA. Kezia tried to be calm, although it could not be denied his heart was a little dim, so that his tears still continued to linger.

In a different place. Heartbroken Devan, unwilling to attend Kezia's wedding. He chose to stay in his room. Almost an hour after he called Kezia, Devan did not want to move from his bed. Devan is heartbroken. Especially when Kezia rejected him earlier, Devan's world felt so quiet.
Beep it! Beep it! Beep it!
Author: @Devan @Alfath @ Juno. Woy, where are you guys? There is no intention to encourage me to take this marriage.
Devan reads it, but chooses to ignore it without replying to anything.
Alfath: Still on the road, stuck.
Abizar: @Juno, jan dating mulu, Bang. Temenin me, here. My deg-degan.
@Devan, don't tell me you're planning to commit suicide because Kezia married me, Bang. I apologize for rejecting your proposal yesterday. I can't watch my mom pass out.
"Damn it!" Devan swore harshly reading Abizar's message. He also typed something in the chat room.
Devan: @Abizar, you think I'm a weak man who easily gives up. I'll take Kezia from lo, yeah. ^^^
Alfath: @Devan, don't bother! You deal with your own family.
Devan: I don't care! They were married because of their children. That means their household is just a child born. ^^^
Juno: 🤣🤣
Alfath: Napa you laugh @Juno? Sodara you need to diruqyah it.
Abizar: Bang Devan, really. Our marriage was just a formality. Until the child is born, Ms. Zee will be free.
Alfath: Your brains need to be all diruqyah! You think marriage is just filling in the files? You guys say it's just a formality.
Juno: I'm not included, woy!
Alfath: @Juno, same with you. The proof is that you laugh. Not that their brains are sliding.
Juno: Sorry, sorry, I'm confused who to support. Both are my sodara.
Alfath: @Devan, you're not the kind of Devan I know. There's no way Casanova's getting weak from one girl. Maybe your soul mate is not Kezia, you can not maximize your own will. It's called defying God's decision.
Devan snorted reading the message Alfath addressed to him. It is true what the man wrote. However, the love that he had been locked in his chest, as if blinding the eyes of his heart. Devan doesn't care about any of that. Moreover, Abizar has given the green light for his intentions. Of course he would welcome.
Beep it! Another incoming message in the chat room.
Abizar: Yes, yes, I'm sorry. You guys just come here. The predecessor has come. I want Bang Al and Bang Devan to witness the wedding.
Both eyes glared sharply at the message. His jaw tightened because Abizar was challenging. He also typed in to reply to messages.
Devan: You want me to make war, Bi? ^^^
