Trapped in Love Mbak
13. Dangerous Scene

...Happy Reading's...

...****************...

A few moments passed, the fuck behind the chat war was finally resolved. Devan decides to attend Abizar's wedding. But not to be a witness to a marriage. He came because he appreciated the families of those who still have brotherly ties.

*****

Abizar was a little nervous while sitting in front of the penghulu. To his right left sat Juno and Alfath who were witnesses of the marriage, while Kezia had not yet come out of the room.

"Where is the bride of his wife? Not ready yet?" ask the ruler who is ready to marry them off.

"Attent, Sir. Again picked up my wife in her room," replied Surya who was sitting next to the penghulu. The ruler nodded his head and turned to Abizar.

"Have you not memorized yet?" tanya Penghulu seduces Abizar.

"Ud—udah," replied Abizar nervously.

Mr. Penghulu smiled. "Review, yes, if it gets wrong! Later the first night can be postponed, you know," teased Pak Penghulu again. Without knowing what marriage is. Inevitably everyone present also laughed. Perhaps his intention was only to dilute the tension that greeted his bridegroom.

The laughter of the guests slowly subsided as Kezia came to the wedding pulpit. The woman looked beautiful and elegant with a white kebaya dress and batik cloth as her alloy. Although simple, his appearance is able to hypnotize everyone. Especially Devan who had been standing in the corner.

"OK, we just start, yes," said Mr. Penghulu.

Abizar's face was a little tense. His mind was afraid to think about many things. Abizar could not focus on listening as some of the arrangements were being made. Until the time Mr. Penghulu has finished reading the wedding sermon, and both families have given a speech, Abizar was asked to extend his hand to recite the wedding qabul ijab.

Surya as the guardian of marriage Kezia welcomed Abizar's hand, then said the words of the ijab out loud. Then it was Abizar's turn to recite the phrase qabul after his hand was struck by Surya. Abizar said, saying,

"I received the marriage and marriage of Selena bint Su—"

"Pig! How, Selena?"

Abizar gasped for the reprimand from the father who was sitting behind Abizar. He bit his lower lip when he realized the mistake. Both of his eyes narrowed in embarrassment. Everyone wondered who Selena was, and Kezia remained silent. Of course he was also ashamed.

"Sorry, sorry. Let's go back, yes" asked Abizar, then took a deep breath before shaking Surya's hand again.

"Name Kezia. Remember that, Abi!" press Surya with a deadly gaze. He did not want to embarrass his son a second time. It's up to Selena, who Surya knows Abizar must marry Kezia right now.

"I—iya, Om." Abizar was a little awkward as her hands were squeezed a little tight by her future father-in-law.

The word ijab qabul is recited. This time Abizar recited it fluently without mistake.

"I accept the marriage and marriage of Kezia Kamila bint Surya with the dowry, tuuuunai."

"Where are the witnesses, legitimate?"

"Well." Right."

The sentence that became the legal condition of the marriage was also a marker of the end of Abizar's single period. Everyone said tahmid a sign of gratitude for the smooth running of the sacred event.

The wedding procession was completed. Now Abizar and Kezia are valid in a bond. A sacred bond that upholds faithfulness, with all promises spoken in the name of God. Marking marriage is not a game.

"We'll excuse you, Mr. Surya. Nitip my son, yeah." Jiro pamit to his new besan.

"Yes, Sir. Abi is now part of this family. We will think of him as our own son" said Surya with a thin arch at the corner of his lips.

Abizar's family left Abizar with his new family. Abizar was confused as to what to do after this. He pretended to be tired and wanted to rest. Kezia forced her husband to take a rest in her room.

"It's also your room, Ma'am, too" said Abizar shortly after landing his butt on Kezia's side of the bed.

Kezia did not respond. He was busy opening the makeup that filled his hair, then rubbing a cotton swab that had been spiked with milk cleanser to remove traces of make-up on his face.

"Sir, what do we do after this?" tanya Abizar from ceplos.

Kezia looked at Abizar through his reflection in the mirror before him.

"Yes, no crap. We're married because of this kid, right? So act like you normally do. Let's just say we never got married. We both have no rights and obligations to be real husband and wife" Kezia said.

Abizar poked his lips. "This boy is a pinter too, yes," Abizar exclaimed in a satirical tone.

This time Kezia turned towards Abizar. His forehead was wrinkled because he did not understand Abizar's words.

"meaning?"

"Yes, Madam Pinter to keep your own good name. You used to refuse when I wanted responsibility. He said, 'forget it!' But right now there is already a child in the stomach of Mbak, Mbak immediately inget me, and look for me to be a scapegoat. Is that not pinter's name?"

Kezia nodded at hearing that. His brain was not too stupid to digest the words that were thrown from his mouth Abizar.

"So, you think the child I bear is not your child? And now I'm using you with this wedding, aren't I?"

"Hmmm. You're a pinter, right? Go straight to the point," continued Abizar.

Kezia stood up and walked over to the bed. His gaze looked fierce as if he wanted to stab Abizar. "So you think I'm a cheap woman who likes to sleep with a lot of men? So I forgot who the father of the child I'm carrying right now is?"

Abizar raised his legs on the bed, then inched backwards as Kezia further cornered him. The woman deliberately followed Abizar's movements, until Abizar's body hit the head of the bed. Abizar was a little frightened, as Kezia slightly bent her body at such a close distance. Her lips are hard to speak. His words seemed to be stuck.

"If I were such a girl, I wouldn't choose a snot boy like you to be the father of this child" Kezia pointedly replied.

Abizar could clearly see Kezia's face at such a close distance to her face. Even the roar of their breath hunted each other when they had to scramble for oxygen in that room.

"But you are calm. Now we make a deal. We will end the marriage after this child is born into the world. Let's just say you're charitable to lend your family name behind my son's name," Kezia said after she straightened her body, giving her distance while scuttering in front of her chest.

Abizar could sigh in relief. That close to Kezia was a dangerous scene. Maybe Abizar will be caliph for the second time. Somehow his body always behaved unnaturally when it was close to Kezia. He always said that he did not like older women.
