After the reception that night, the two of them were asked to spend the night at the hotel by their parents. The real Rey refuses and prefers to go home.
However, he wanted to obey what his in-laws and also his own parents ordered.
The two of them entered the room that had been provided, Rey and Marwa had just entered, both surprised by the atmosphere of the room that seemed to be devoted to them as newlyweds. But, who will spend the first night if they themselves do not have each other's feelings. Moreover, Rey who does not want to be selfish, she allows time that will make both of them fall in love later.
Both are stuck on the edge of the bed. They were both immersed in their own thoughts.
"Mas Rey,"
"Marvana,"
The two called out names in unison and made the atmosphere even more awkward.
"The first one,"
"You go first, Marwa,"
The woman nodded, Rey turned to the woman who had become his wife. He really felt awkward this time around being next to women. Marwa's sweet voice made Rey blush in shame. Not only that, from the look in her eyes, Rey was already feeling very nervous.
"Mas, I'd like to change, can you please open the zipper in the back!"
Rey was surprised by his wife's request. Only the two of them were in the room. Inevitably, Rey must fulfill his wife's request. He immediately turned his wife's body around and began to lift the large headscarf used by Marwa. He slowly closed his eyes, not ready to see the other body of his wife.
"Mas, I-I went to the bathroom yeah,"
Rey felt that the two were really awkward. "Wait!"
"Why, Mas?"
"Are you sure we'll sleep in the same bed?"
Slowly Marwa shook her head, Rey understood his wife, "Then let's sleep separately. I'll sleep in another room, but never tell our family if we split up, I don't want to be selfish, Marwa. I'll wait for the right time for the two of us to get to know each other,"
"But what if we get caught?"
"Trust me we will be safe as long as we can keep this secret, you also have to be clever to keep the secret. I just don't want to be selfish, Marwa. I know you're just trying to obey me as a wife, but I also understand how you feel that you're not entirely sure of me as your husband, are you?"
The woman shook her head slowly, but Rey knew she was shy. They touched when shaking hands when the deal was. And until now Rey is even very caring for his wife who is still shy about him. He was so shy of his wife.
He opted out and asked for a different room key. The hotel belongs to his own parents, but Rey must be clever to arrange some people there so as not to report to his parents.
"Bring food to the next room!" Reynand's orders.
The employee was confused after Rey said so.
"I hope no one told me, I just need some time with my wife,"
They nodded slowly after Reynand said so. Perhaps they understood why the newlyweds were not one room.
Rey cleaned herself and changed her clothes. It felt very tired, the guests of both parents were very many, not to mention Reynand's private guests who were also very many. But he did not see any of his wife's guests at the time. When he asked why his wife had not invited a friend. His wife replied that he had no friends.
Rey didn't want to ask any further. Maybe there's something his wife can't tell you. Maybe later, when time has begun to slowly melt his feelings.
In a different room. Rey started laying on the bed to rest.
Suddenly his memory with the figure of the woman made him realize from his daydream. Rey is very confident that Bintang is a woman who has managed to make it very chaotic for the heart, especially what can be expected from women who have left it first without any explanation. Now his task is to try to appreciate his wife, if even Bintang will be present in the middle of his household together with Marwa, Marwa, the thing Rey wanted to ask was why the woman had left without a word of goodbye.
The wait in the park was also done by Rey every year, and the result was still that she did not meet the Star. Later, if he met the woman again, then he would end the feeling then completely leave. There's no point in him surviving. If he continues to be trapped in the memory along with his past, he will feel a deep disappointment because it destroys his own wife's feelings.
Falling in love can change everything in a person's life, sometimes what is bad can be good when in love. But what is good can also be bad when a person cannot control his own feelings.
Whether the feeling is acknowledged or not, Rey will learn to love Marwa. Seeing the woman's eyes for the first time when shaking hands and kissing the woman's forehead, the look of the eyes that made Rey learn to accept. And the look of the eyes also managed to make him feel shady even though not as shady first. However, he was grateful to be able to feel such a thing in a stranger who first entered into his life.
Already so many women are sought by both parents, Rey always refused. However, this time it was precisely he himself who received it with a spacious chest. What else can be done besides following the wishes of his parents? Moreover, the woman had been proposed first before telling it to Rey.
He believed that Om Dimas' choice would not be arbitrary, he always believed in his mother's brother. During this time for the affairs of his life, Rey surrendered to God.
Eight years he's like a lost man finding no purpose in life, feeling chaotic, feeling like a madman with an endless wait.
He remembered very well the memory when the woman hugged him very tightly, as if he did not want to let go, but in the end she was a woman who had managed to destroy all those feelings. Both about his love, and about the promises they both had planned.
All plans are neatly arranged. Rey even had thought that she would never be separated from the woman, but instead separated very far, in an endless wait.
Looking into Marwa's eyes, he found similarities with the Stars. It feels very shady and comfortable. Sometimes memories come unexpectedly. Although with different people, but when it has experienced something similar, then the memory will return again.
