“You should get married right now!” said a middle-aged man who became an elder in the area.
The eyes of Ayana and Rafael turned back to hear the words of the man who ordered them both to get married at that moment.
“Neg. I do not want,” said Ayana who quickly rejected the desire of the man.
“You think I want to?” rafael said as he looked at Ayana with a hostile look.
“You are silent! You think this is a choice? If you do not want to be married, do not pervert in broad daylight like this,” exclaimed the middle-aged man who was sitting in front of them.
Ayana and Rafael stared at each other intently as if their eyes were shooting out laser beams that could pierce through the eyes of their opponents.
“We did nothing. We just-“
“Where there are ngaku. Already sir, let's just call both their parents,” said an adult man and approved by everyone present at the place.
Not far from where Ayana and Rafael were, three friends of Rafael were peeking out from where he was hiding. They were eager to take Rafael away from that place, unfortunately they did not dare to do so.
“Where is Raka, Candra, do you guys have any ideas?” farrel asked his two best friends.
“I'm afraid we will also be detained there if we come to help Rafael,” said Raka Lirih responding to Farrel's questions on the two of them.
“Ck, cemen. What about Rafael?” tanya Candra responded to the answer from Raka.
“What are you brave for?” asked Raka who seemed to challenge Candra.
“Not. It's the same as giving ourselves up in a rogues nest,” Candra replied with a chuckle.
Farrel and Raka stared intently at Candra while shaking her best friend's head. And Candra tried to defend herself from her two best friends so that the three of them diverted their attention from Rafael and Ayana who were in trouble.
Everyone who was the representative of the local residents decided to call both parents Rafael and Ayana to face them and immediately marry them both right then and there.
They're both really in trouble. How can they both get married if they both don't love each other. They even consider themselves enemies of each other. But what power, they couldn't fight so many people who were there.
Now, the two of them were in front of Ayana's parents. They tell the real events. But just like before, everyone refused to believe in Rafael and Ayana. What else Ayana is a villager of their village that they must protect their dignity and dignity.
“Bu, sir, Ayana would have sworn that Ayana did not do as they all accuse. Ayana begs Father and Mother to believe in Ayana and not marry Ayana to this man. Ayana does not want Mom, what else Ayana has got a student duty to study in the city,”, said Ayana who pleaded with her parents without Rafael among the three of them.
Miss Anisa, Ayana's mother looked sadly at her only daughter who had to experience such an event while her future was shining. He gently rubbed his daughter's hair while saying,
“Mom trusts you, but I can't do anything more. You know ourselves we live in a village that must obey the customs and regulations of this village. I'm sure that Rafael is a good man. He could definitely be responsible for being your husband.”
“Where do you know if he's a good guy and can be responsible?” sahut Ayana with her regret.
“If he is not responsible, surely he will run from earlier,” Pak Rahman said refuting Ayana's words.
Anisa's mother hugged Ayana and rubbed her daughter's back to calm her down and gave her strength and support as she said,
“All we want not necessarily we can get Nak. Maybe Rafael is the best to be your husband. No matter what the situation, you must obey and respect it. Because I know if you're a good and obedient child.”
Rahman rubbed his daughter's hair affectionately to calm her daughter down and said she always supported him through the touch of her hand.
Not far from where Ayana and her parents were talking, Rafael heard all their conversations. She grinned at the desire of Ayana who wanted a perfect husband.
He was sorry for Ayana's fate as if the star was being obstructed when it would shine brightly. It was just that he could not do anything because he also did not want the marriage to happen.
She has a beautiful boyfriend and is very much in love with him. So there's no way he could just take his girlfriend off.
“How is Rafael's brother, can both of your parents come?” asked the middle-aged man who was the elder in the village.
Rafael played his fingers anxiously. Then he told them all what had made him anxious.
“Both of my parents are out of town sir. It is very unlikely that they will come here. Here's the message they sent me when I called them.”
Rafael showed them a message from his mother saying they were still in another city.
“Alright, I don't think Rafael's brother is lying. We better do this marriage immediately in front of all residents and both parents Ayana,” said the middle-aged man.
In front of the villagers, Ayana's parents and the religious leaders who married them, Rafael pledged their marriage.
And everyone says if their marriage is legal and one of those who served in KUA reminds Rafael, Ayana and Ayana's parents pick up their marriage book one week after the wedding.
Njir, what is this? Am I really married to this woman? Am I really her husband? So what about Rubi? For sure he would be very angry if he knew about all this, Rafael said in his heart.
After that all the villagers who were there dispersed themselves to leave the place. And the three friends of Raphael were still peeking from where they were hiding.
“Where are you Rafael?” asked Mr. Rahman who saw his daughter-in-law standing up from his seat.
“I will go home Sir,” replied Rafael lazily.
“Take Ayana with you. You live in the city, right? These few days Ayana will also be entering college in the city soon. Maybe it is destiny that brings you two together to become husband and wife unexpectedly,” said Mr. Rahman as a parent from Ayana.
“What? Bringing her? But-“
“Take Ayana and introduce them to your parents as your wife. After they come home later, please contact us immediately, so we can visit and meet them,” said Bu Anisa interrupted Rafael's remarks.
At once Rafael's eyes were wide open and his body was limp as boneless facing the reality of his life which was one hundred percent changed because of the presence of Ayana in his life.
