"Wait."
All who were once silent, were astonished by the coming of a person.
Everyone wondered, who was that guy? But not for Dean and his family. Dean's family has been told, only Milly isn't. Because it was a surprise for him.
Dean glanced at the woman beside him, the woman's eyes just kept looking at the man who was walking towards them.
Tears began to pool in her eyes.
Milly wanted her father to marry her. But he wouldn't tell Dean. After all, he was afraid that his father would act. But somehow now her father could be here? His father also dressed the same as the other Dean's family.
It's been confirmed that this is all Dean's work. Again, the man made her feel overwhelmed.
Dean cheers up the would-be-in-law.
"This is Milly's father, he's the one who's going to act as the guardian" Dean said.
With a slight hesitation, Milly's father approached his son. Milly stretched out her hand to greet the father. With a happy heart, his father accepted the child's hand and hugged him.
"I'm sorry dad, son," she whispered in Milly's ear. After that he sat in the chair opposite Dean.
***
"Well." Right."
Dean was relieved when the witness said that. His struggle had been treated when he heard that word. But Dean was well aware, this was not the end, but the beginning of his responsibility to the woman he had just married.
A drop of clear grain managed to fall on Dean's cheek. Representing the feeling of his heart that is so happy and also touched.
The host asks Dean and Milly to stand up.
Now is the time for the handover of the dowry and the installation of the wedding ring.
Dean looked at Milly who was now standing before him. The woman smiled slightly, returning a smile from Dean.
Dean could still see Milly's tears welling up. Even though the woman had already removed it.
As per the host's direction, Dean took the ring and pinned it on Milly's finger After which Milly gave it away.
Dean gave her a set of prayer tools, and a diamond ring that weighed the same as their wedding date, as her dowry.
The dowry handover event is underway. Everyone is trying to capture that moment. As per the MC's instructions they also shake hands. Milly was asked to kiss the back of the man's hand, which is now her legal husband.
Now it's Dean's turn to kiss the wife's forehead. With a little nervous Dean did so, after which he placed his hands on Milly's head. He prayed and shed tears.
No different from Dean, Milly couldn't hold back her tears either. I didn't expect it to get to this point. How many months ago he was at the lowest point of his life. He almost took the wrong path. Thankful Dean was here to save his life. And now Dean makes her the luckiest woman.
How not, Dean married her by accepting all the shortcomings and mistakes of her past. And now Dean embodies what he wants, without him having to ask. Starting from the concept of marriage and also the presence of the father.
The show continued with photos. It starts with family and close relatives. After that was followed by an invitation and the last was Dean's office friends.
"Congratulations, Mr. Dean, Miss Milly. It ended up, too," Jeff said to Dean.
"Thank's Jeff. Quickly follow." Dean said he grabbed Milly to get closer to her.
"Well, Mr. boss is dying, yes. Don't be that way, sir. Pity us who are single" other timps.
Dean just shook his head to hear the words of the employee who incidentally was close to him.
"It's fitting that Mr. Dean clepek-clepek, it turns out that his bride is as beautiful as this. Congratulations, Miss Milly has broken Mr. Dean's heart. Lucky sir Dean got a beautiful wife. Hope yes, Mom."
Various jokes and congratulations made by Dean employees.
Dean and Milly agreed to all their prayers.
Milly just smiled when she heard Dean's employees joking at Dean. Sometimes their jokes can make Milly blush. And Milly enjoyed it all. Dean's employees care for him and respect him.
"This is a gift from us, boss. But it will open, just the two, yes. It's only night," said one of Dean's employees. The gift was accompanied by another laugh.
"Okay, makasi ya. But what it is, here. I think it's suspicious."
"Later to know, sir. Well, like everyone else, there are still people who want photos. We'll eat first, sir, Mom. Broken hearts do not make our stomach out of hunger," said one of the female employees joking.
Dean's friends had already enjoyed the meal, as did the other invited guests.
"Dean, Milly come on, you guys should eat too. After this rest for a while. After that you have to change your clothes for the reception later at noon," Dean's mom said.
"Good, Auntie."
"Mmm, don't auntie anymore dear dong. Call mama, like Dean."
"Good, Ma."
"Okay, mama wait there."
"Come," Dean asked. He held Milly's hand. Milly was shocked, but then she remembered that now Dean was halal to touch her. Although a little awkward, Milly tried to get used to it.
***
Milly is getting ready for the reception. It's being dressed. Then Dean came into the room because it had to be danced as well.
"What the hell is it, Dean?"
Dean shook his head with a smile. But his eyes didn't get away from Milly.
"Why look at me like that?" ask Milly again. It's a little wrong to be noticed that way.
"Can you, Ma'am?" dean asked Milly.
"That is, Mas. Something wrong, huh?" ask the perias worriedly.
Dea shook her head. So that makes perias and also Milly astonished.
"Emang can be that pretty," Dean continued, glancing at Milly.
Milly blushed, she was also ashamed of her fairies. While the fairy smiled. He was relieved that he thought his job was wrong. Moreover, Dean said it with a serious expression.
"Ouch, Mas. I guess what's up. Don't fuck in here, Mas. Poor me who is single."
"Sorry Mother. I'm afraid, because I'm stunned by the beauty of my wife."
Milly blushed, she was also ashamed of the fairy. But his heart warmed as Dean spoke my wife's words.
Dean kept watching him. That really makes Milly uncomfortable. Luckily, Dean had to change clothes. So he no longer bothers Milly.
The reception really went on. Very thick with the traditional atmosphere of minangkabau. Dance and music, as well as typical Minang decorations, really amaze the eyes of invited guests who come.
Various typical dishes of minang and also the cuisine of the archipelago are also presented. All very much spoil the guests' tongues.
And the most stunning is the bride and groom. Dress custom minangkabau with all the decorations. Milly looks so beautiful and shining. So did Dean, he was so dashing with oversized bridal minang clothes. They really fit. All the guests praised them.
Dean's friends, who were present at the wedding, returned to the reception. But there was a different scene that Milly and Dean saw.
At the table Jeff looks so familiar talking to a woman. That woman is Wati. This time Wati looks different, because she usually only wears powder and thin lipstick. Now it looks adorned his face with make up that is a little different from usual. And that makes her look beautiful. Her clothes also greatly supported her appearance. So that makes Wati look elegant.
Dean and Milly looked at each other, they smiled with their own thoughts.
The show ends at eight p.m. Only family now lives.
"Wouldn't it be at home, Ma?" milly hesitated."
"The new bride is still shy. Poor Grandma's granddaughter. Look at his face with hope."
Milly did not expect Dean's grandmother to answer. She was embarrassed, especially the others laughed. Dean smiled, though.
"Yes, we're saying goodbye."
"Bye Milly's. Bye Dean's."
Milly waved her hand as Dean's big family car had already started running.
After that, Milly's father also approached them. Milly's father smiled at the son and daughter-in-law.
"Dance, Dean. Dad go home first. The one who obeys your husband, son. Respect him with all your heart. Now he is your priest.
Dean, Milly's dad. I'm sure you'll take good care of Milly. Dad's saying yes."
"Where is Dad going to go home? What pake?"
"Dad ordered a taxi. You can ask Dean later, he knows where you're going?"
"Why not say it, Dad?"
"Why-why? Don't worry dad, I'm fine. Be happy with your husband. I'll go first."
"But, Dad."
"Mil, I'll tell you a story later" Dean said, calming Milly down.
Despite feeling dissatisfied, Milly was forced to let her father go, because her taxi order had arrived. He shook his hand before his father got into the car.
Milly looked softly at the taxi that had already left her. There was a sense of unwillingness when he saw his father leave. Even though his father had hurt his heart and his mother. But still, his love is still there. Moreover, they had not met for a long time.
"Mil."
Milly was shocked, as Dean grabbed her shoulder. He rushed to wipe away the tears that had been stirred up.
"Come, it's night. You must be tired and want to rest. But we pray Isya first."
"But father."
"Dad's fine. Come on, I'll tell you later."
Milly nodded. Dean clasped Milly's hand.
"It can't be, it's halal" Dean said as Milly glanced at his hand. Then he walked while holding the woman's hand.
"Will we eat first?"
"No, I'm still full. If you're hungry, let me be with you."
"It would be laper, then" said Dean.
When they enter the hotel. A hotel official approached them. He asked Dean and Milly to follow him. It turned out that he was taking them to the room.
Dean went straight into the room, when the officer was gone. He was quite surprised, it turns out their room has been decorated as a bridal room.
For a moment the two were caught in an awkward atmosphere. Busy with their own minds.
"You take a shower first. But don't forget to use hot water. After that we pray."
Milly nodded, she immediately rushed into the bathroom. After first taking a change of clothes. The employee said Milly's clothes had been moved from the previous room to this room.
After Milly finished, replace Dean who took a bath and ablution. After that they prayed together. Start it with circumcision prayer, after that isya prayer.
Finish praying and praying. Dean turned his body to face Milly. He extended his hand. Milly soon found herself suffering. Dean kissed Milly's forehead and head that was still wrapped in mucus.
Milly was still sitting on her desk. And Dean has gone. He put away the flowers that were deliberately placed on their beds.
Dean's been lying in bed for a long time, but Milly's still hanging on to his sajad.
"Mil, when to get there. Rest, I'm sure you're tired."
"Yes, in a moment" Milly replied.
Because he was tired, Milly stood up and folded his face. With doubt Milly approached towards the bed. He was getting nervous when Dean asked him to come closer. Now Dean was already sitting down and leaning on the head of the bed.
"Dean, I-."
"What's wrong?"
"I want to ask you about Dad."
Dean shifted his seat, he faced Milly. He held his wife's hand.
"Dad's fine. I'm going back to jail."
Milly bowed. What he thought was right. But why was his father allowed to come without police supervision. Did Dean vouch for it. Milly was also sad to think about her father's fate in there.
"Actually my father was released. He can remit, but I don't want to, he wants to make amends to you by staying there until his prison term runs out. Maybe another month."
Milly could no longer hold back her tears. He felt guilty for his father's arrest.
"Don't cry, as you can see. Dad is fine, now he is there activities, he is believed to provide training on the aggravation of other inmates. There are many dear fathers. We'll look at you later, you can persuade me."
"Dad was also divorced from his wife. His wife volunteered to be Tejo's wife. Dad took it" Dean continued, embracing his wife into his arms.
"Udah, yes. Cook the night of the bride crying, it is assumed that the person you married was forced again."
Milly hit Dean's arm. He let himself out of Dean's arms.
A moment later, the atmosphere returned awkwardly.
"Come on," said Dean. He wants to get Milly to sleep.
"But Dean, I-I haven't been able to give birth again in how much time is near," Milly said.
Heard what Milly said. Dean's laughter broke. Seeing Dean laughing, Milly immediately pouted.
"I'm sleeping, Mil. Not asking you to give birth. Not pregnant yet, giving birth."
"Lhh Dean!"
"Don't be angry, Mil. I'm kidding, you're funny anyway. I'm sorry for your laugh" Dean said, embracing Milly. But Milly was silent. He was not angry, but ashamed.
"It's okay, Mil. I know, you're just ready for surgery."
"Pregnant can be delayed, Mil. But-."
Dean whispered into Milly's ear.
He again seduced his wife. He was so happy to see Milly misbehaving.
