Abel and Alvin have now arrived at the venue for Excel and Jennie's engagement party, but both have never been out of the car and have been faithful in the parking lot ever since. This was all because Abel who asked on the grounds was not ready and asked for a moment more.
“Udah what not yet si, the show began ntar if we are late calculated not intention dateng”. Alvin cried while looking at his expensive watch from now on. He knew that Abel was difficult to accept this but wanted to stay in the parking lot and his show would still start.
“Yaudah yuk doain ntar I did not faint fitting they exchange ring”. Alvin rolled his eyes panted, said he was from home ready now even tell doain, if Abel fainted later to bother.
The two of them entered the cafe that has been conjured into the engagement event complete with small lights decorating all over the place, there is envy in Abel of course see the good of the place.
Both approached Excel parents to shake hands as a form of courtesy to the host of the event of course. “hallo aunt om sorry mommy is equally unable to come because she has not returned from outside the city”.
“nothing you guys just came we're already happy”. Answer Rita who is Excel's mom.
“Enjoy the event and banquet yes do not hesitate”. Jimmy's timpal is Excel's papa. Although it has not been met for a long time but the face of Alvin and Abel is a perfect blend of Dina and Rey until the first time saw will also know if they are Rey and Dina's children.
Alvin and Abel enter the show and it seems clear Excel is greeting guests as well as Jennie but they are not together because Jennie seems fun to greet and chat with her friends as a form hospitality host events.
“Hey are you nervous ?”. asked Alvin who approached Excel pleasantries while Abel was silent and only heard the talk of two men who were older than him. He has no mood to make his voice even to come to the engagement event Excel alone is very heavy.
Abel observes Excel who seems very happy because it is clearly visible from his lips that had curved upwards but do not know if behind the Excel smile there is a heart of Abel who cries. “Abel why be quiet are you sick ?”.
Abel was still in his daydream until he realized Excel realized that he was not focused until Alvin slightly shook Abel's arm to immediately wake up from his daydream. Abel was shocked and saw Alvin as well as Excel alternately.
“Because you are sick ?”. Excel placed the back of his hand on Abel's forehead to measure his body but didn't know if it made Abel's cheeks flushed, Abel quickly retreated slightly so that Excel's hand immediately released fear later he would not willing Excel engaged.
“no I can't kok Just less comfortable just the same atmosphere of binge”. He replied quickly, he did not want to look sad but wanted to cover up also a little more will be seen. Moreover, his face that had been bent.
“do not be too tense anyway this is not a too formal event, just let me know ya”. Abel simply nodded and smiled faintly in response. How to enjoy the party if he just does not like the party.
After that Excel pampit to approach Jennie who was busy greeting other guests, Abel saw the departure of Excel who approached and stood beside Jennie. Sadness and unwillingness to come back but what would Excel say his love with Jennie and not with her.
*****
MC announces that the engagement will start and asks Excel and Jennie to come forward to exchange rings. The ring bearer brings a pair of rings to them and the two pin on the ring finger as a sign of bonding and elevating their relationship to a more serious stage.
“patient bel”. Alvin whispered to the ear of Abel, he knew if his sister was heartbroken, clearly visible from the eyes of Abel who looked sad, sad, anyone will also feel sadness when a loved one is even engaged to another woman.
Even without realizing Abel's tears just shed and he quickly deleted it before the other guests also Excel who was in front there saw it. Although it has strengthened itself but in fact it is still very painful to see the person we love tie the promise of love in front of the crowd, it's like telling me Excel is Jennie's and no one can change it.
In front of there Excel looks handsome with a suit that is in line with the dress that Jennie is wearing today. Guests also applauded when the two had finished exchanging rings. And also various prayers the guests say for both but different from Abel.
He does not dislike if Excel is happy but he does not like if the woman chosen by Excel is Jennie Lantara Jennie is not a good woman and her wait of almost 20 years is in vain.
Abel bowed because he could not see the affection of the two, he hoped that the show would be finished quickly and he could go home. But when he looked down Abel did not realize that Alvin who had been next to him had now turned to the front where Excel and Jennie were empty because both had come down.
“all as congratulations to Excel and Jennie who has engaged my sister Abel will present a song, let's call Abel to front”.
Abel raises his head and looks forward to hearing his name mentioned and he does not realize that Excel and Jennie have gone down and joined the others while Alvin is in front of who knows when Abel tak.
And even more surprising Alvin as if adding to the burden and heartache by saying if he will sing, do not know if his heart is not in good condition at this time, let alone sing a song even talk Abel is not wanted.
“kak Alvin said I want to sing, why don't you say if I want to kill myself”. His protest when Alvin was already beside Abel and Alvin melah smile as if insulting.
“don't be prejudiced first, I say this is for your good, mendingan lo reveal your feelings tonight through the song because I know you will not be able to express your feelings, lo, if you do not reveal tonight there will be no more opportunity, meningan complete tonight bell continues abis this lo start new life”.
Abel considered, what was said by Alvin was true that he would not be able to express his feelings to Excel especially Excel is now officially become a fiance and other prospective female husband, especially Excel, at least through the song Abel can say his heart even though implied.
Abel got on stage and in front of everyone he was very nervous let alone seen by Excel and the two Excel parents but the rice was already porridge if he went down there would make it more embarrassed.
“night everything is actually the idea of my brother who is not sane tonight, but I will present a song for the engaged today, hopefully you like”. Alvin who heard Abel speak, but also Abel likes to sing in the bathroom and Alvin gave an opportunity for Abel to prove the results of his training in the bathroom.
After saying the song that Abel would sing to the band that filled the engagement party he calmed himself and when the clang of the music began he sang the song that best suited his content and mood at present.
***Ahead of your happy day
You never know I'm sad
You forgot all the memories
Then you just throw it away
Tega...
I know you now
But what about me
There's no way I can afford to lose you
I know it's not the time
Hope for your love again
But what about my heart
There's no way I can live like this
Without your love
Don't remember you promised before
Happy myself slamanya
It doesn't mean our love from before
Until you're with her
Tega...
I know you now
But what about me
There's no way I can afford to lose you
I know it's not the time
Hope for your love again
But what about my heart
There's no way I can live like this
Without love from you
But what about me
Couldn't possibly lose
I know it's not the time
Hope for your love again
But what about my heart
There's no way I can live like this
Without your love
Without your love***
All were astonished by the song that Abel had just sung because it was like a heart expression, whether it was real or just a song that must have made the atmosphere tense. Especially with Excel that looks happy from there seen from the look of his face.
“this song I sing in accordance with my heart, this song represents my feelings tonight to the person I love so much but can not have and choose to be with others, he said, he is the brother of Excel..”.
