Chapter 17 Marriage

Lucas frowned as he received the clothes. "I never saw him."

Aunt Mandy smiled then rubbed Lucas' cheek gently. From the look of the woman's eyes seemed to be squinting something pitiful. Even he almost cried if he did not hold back from looking strong in front of Lucas.

Lucas wanted to hug her, but was undone because he knew her body must have been very smelly.

"Aunty okay?" ask Lucas.

Auntie looked at her face so closely. He smiled at her, then nodded. "I'm glad you're finally getting married, Luc." He wiped away the tears that were now beginning to wet his cheeks.

Lucas could no longer bear to hug the middle-aged woman's body. No matter how smelly his body was, he had now grabbed the filled body into his embrace.

Aunt Mandy looked stiff, but just a few moments later she returned Lucas' embrace.

"When James got married, I wasn't there on that happy day. But now I can attend your wedding, Luc." Aunt Mandy tightened her hug. His crying was getting louder.

Lucas was silent, all he could do was calm the middle-aged woman by stroking her back.

"Did you know? You look a lot like James. Your height, your veil, your hair, your lips, but not your eyes. Those eyes belonged to Jessy. She's a very beautiful and kind woman, I've met her several times, "this time Aunt Mandy's cry has stopped, and she let go of her hug.

"You really look like him." Aunt Mandy's hand framed the man's face, then kissed his forehead.

Lucas didn't know what to respond to, and he just kept quiet. Until Aunt Mandy attacks him to get ready, because the wedding will soon be held.

Kimber looked at the shadow in front of him. A woman in a bridal dress looked pitifully staring at him. There was no hue of happiness there was only a sad look with a horrible face. For half an hour she cried, not even caring about the beautiful makeup painting her face was now washed away by her own tears.

Aaron's confession to her made him even more doubtful. I don't know why he had to be that hesitant. But in his deepest heart he wanted to run away from all this. Especially running away from those two men.

His cries did not stop until he felt a great pain from his head. His head throbbed violently, like something was hitting him. The room he saw seemed to rotate, and it made something in his stomach also churned like he wanted to be expelled. She was really nauseous, regardless of the dress she was wearing she ran towards the bathroom. He vomited out what was in his stomach.

From the doorway, someone was staring at him worriedly. Someone wanted to get closer, but hesitated and he just kept watching Kimber trying to spit something out of his mouth.

The nausea that Kimber feels has not been reduced. He continued to try to remove what was in his stomach, but the only thing that came out was a yellowish clear liquid and it was enough to torture him. Until someone's hands patted his back then the nausea was slightly reduced.

Kimber gargled and rinsed his face, looking pale from before. "Thank you" he said.

Someone stiffened at how pale Kimber's face was. He was really worried about the situation of the woman. "Kim, if you want, you can annul this marriage" said the man.

Kimber's body stiffened, then turned his body back where the person who had patted his back was. Kimber's face paled even more after seeing that someone who turned out to be Aaron. The man seemed worried about his condition.

Aaron felt his heart being torn apart when he saw Kimber's eyes glare at him. The woman looked surprised mixed with anger, I don't know. But that is what can be interpreted by him. He approached the woman, eager to reach into her arms again, yet again so obvious was the rejection of her expression.

"Why are you so mad at me, Kim. I love you, and that's the truth." Aaron tried to get close to the woman, even though the woman he was near kept away.

Kimber's eyes bulged and both of his hands had now embraced his own body as if it was a shield for him to endure.

"I didn't know you'd hate me this deep, but I really love you" Aaron said.

Yes, Kimber saw it, the sad look from the two eyes of the man made him fragile between wanting to hug him or ignore him, but again his memory drifted round the glint of the gamble and it was enough to make him realize that there was nothing he had to trust anymore from the man who was now staring at him.

Kimber looked at Aaron's face. Approaching him, stand before the man. His head had to look up, because his height only reached Aaron's chin. "Forget me. Let's just say we never met all this time" he said, then stepped past Aaron who only pecked after hearing a speech from him.

"I deserve it" Aaron muttered. His tears came out of both his eyes.he was actually crying, more precisely crying for the woman he loved.

***

Bella curses the plane she was on last night, because she and Arthur had to wait a long time. At exactly 2 p.m., the plane was finally ready to bring himself and Arthur back to the city where Lucas was. And now they are both in a taxi to the hood of his apartment.

Bella can't wait to tell the man that she and Lucas aren't kadung brothers, which means they can both be united in a more sacred bond. A big smile spread from his full lips.

Arthur again shuddered in horror at the behavior of the woman beside him. He was indeed the woman's friend, but after meeting her again he felt he did not know the figure again. Bella is not the Bella she knows.

"You're smiling all the time, what are you thinking?" Arthur asked. He was really curious about what was inside the woman's head.

Bella turned her head. Smiling widely as if what Arthur asked was a congratulation for him. "I'm so happy, Arty."

Arthur rolled his eyeballs off guard, feeling that what Bella said was not the answer to her question. Because everyone knows, pleasure will make a person smile wide, but what is needed by him is not the answer but the cause of pleasure itself.

"I know you're happy, but happy because what? You don't seem like the Bella I know" Arthur slit his eyes.

Bella smiled again, "I'm happy because I'm happy. What else?" said it.

Arthur glared in disbelief the woman next to him was his friend all along. He did not expect himself to be young to talk asking him that ridiculous question. I don't know..since he analyzed the flower-seller woman his life slowly changed.

"You're weird, I don't want to care too much about what you're thinking. But realize we have arrived," said Arthur who had already come out of the taxi.

Bella's eyes glared in disbelief, then checked and sure enough they were in front of the apartment building. With a quick step he opened the taxi door, then ran inside. Ignoring Arthur who was calling him, even the suitcase he brought himself forgot. He really could not bear to embrace his strong body. Smelled her favorite scent that she missed.

His pace stopped when someone called out to him. That person is none other than the security of his apartment. The man with the burly body approached towards him.

"You're Miss Bella, Mr Lucas' sister?" tanyakanya.

Bella nodded.

"Mr Lucas told me that if Miss came home today she said she was in a regular church" the man said.

Not wanting to waste time, Bella ran to the church not far from her apartment. The sweat dripped down his forehead and it didn't matter because he remembered today was Lucas' wedding day with the woman.

Arthur saw Bella running past him. He would not want to follow her from behind. Bella's suitcase was ignored there, because more importantly the owner of the suitcase itself. Bella looked at her feet, she really did not know the cause of Bella acting like that.

Bella ran across the sea of people, but the humans seemed calm sitting on their benches, but their eyes on her made her singing shriek. In front of him, Lucas was standing next to Kimber. They were listening to the Priestess in front of him start to recite the wedding vows, and Bella was really scared. With recklessness he ran towards the man pulling his wrist to memorize it. When Lucas was already looking at him, he shamelessly kissed the man's lips in front of everyone.

"I love you, Luc. We are not siblings" Bella said after releasing the brief kiss.

Lucas' eyes were perfectly rounded. While Kimber looked pale, he stared alternately at Lucas and Bella, then smiled broadly.

"Then get married now" Kimber said suddenly, holding Bella's hand, then giving her a bouquet of white roses. "I'm glad you're married. For my debt, I'll pay, but give me time, Luc." Kimber looked at Lucas in the face, then slowly retreated from the face of the two of them. But before he actually retreated, there was something that caught his attention. An unknown person wearing a mask pointed a gun at Bella. Regardless of what happens next, he pushes Bella's body until the sound of the gunshot suffocates her eardrum. Everyone's screams seemed faintly heard, and darkness began to take over his consciousness.
