The procession of Javanese customary wedding celebration before the wedding day will end with midodareni.
The word midodareni itself comes from the word ‘widodari’ which in Javanese means angel. What is expected from this ritual is that the bride will be as beautiful as an angel from heaven on her wedding day tomorrow.
Midodareni night is held on the night before the wedding the next day. The bride will only be accompanied by her family and get advice about marriage.
On this night, wearing full Javanese clothing, the groom's family visited the bride's house to give offerings in the form of needs such as clothing, footwear, cosmetics, fruits, food.
On the night of midodareni, the bride-to-be is only allowed to be in the bridal room and who can see only relatives and female guests. In fact, the bridegroom is prohibited from seeing his future wife on that night.
And it was really excruciating for both of them. The two weeks neither met with Fadia nor Harry.
The first event in the midodareni process is jonggolan. In this stage, Harry comes to the house of his future wife to meet Fatin and Fadil and the extended family of Fadia. His arrival aims to show that he is in good health and his heart has been steady to marry Fadia.
After her future husband came and showed his steadiness, now is the time for Fadia who was asked again whether she had been steady in receiving the proposal of her lover. And this is the second show is tantingan.
That night was really excruciating for both of them. They were in one house but no one allowed them to meet.
Subsequent events Chess Wedha Submission and in Welujengan Majumpang.
Midodareni night closed with plural wilujeng, namely the relationship between the family of the bride and groom to let their children build a household. Then, the family of the bride-to-be presents angs-numbers or souvenirs in the form of food, coil buttons or clothing, or clothing, as well as an heirloom in the form of dhuwung or keris which means that the bridegroom is expected to be a protector for his family in the future.
Harry could not stand it. He really wanted to meet Fadia that night. He sent a WhatsApp message to Fadia.
Harry :'s :
Who are you in the room?
Of course he knows where Fadia is. If not in the room where she thought. What else Fadia's room will be their bridal room tomorrow.
Fadia :
Same Elsa. What was?
Harry stepped out of the house first.
Harry :'s :
Open your room window for a moment Yu.
Fadia opened the window of the room that was not so big.
"Harry." cried Fadia with eyes sparkling with longing.
So did Harry. He misses his future wife very much.
"Yu. I miss." Harry chirped.
Fadia nodded. "I am too."
Harry kissed Fadia's forehead for a long time. Pingitan really taught both the meaning of longing.
The smelled fadia could only close its eyes for a moment. It felt like a little stop for him and Harry to spend some time together tonight. But what is power. It is not the Creator.
"Mas Harry." Call someone none other than Harry's sister. Hanuman.
Harry and Fadia were shocked. "Hanum" said Harry.
"Have not met yet? the show is about to be finished. Been caught." It turns out that Hanum had already known that his brother was meeting his future wife. He also confirmed, who does not miss his beloved for two weeks? the distance from his home to his future wife is not far. And he would rather leave his brother.
Harry nodded. Threw the nape of Fadia and He kissed repeatedly Fadia's lips with anxiety.
*cups

"Harrry.. Look at that, my lipstick sticks to your lips." chirped Fadia.
"Here I clean up." continued again.
Harry drew his face closer to Fadia.
Fadia reached out to both sides of Harry's face. He gently kissed Harry's lips. This was the second time Fadia took the initiative to do so first.
Now the upper body of the two has docked only blocked the walls of the house. The increasingly passionate feeling must be stopped after their longest ciu man.
The breathing of the two gasping for breath made their chests go up and down.
"Here home." kicked Fadia out with a red face when she remembered she was the one who started the hot kiss.
"You're driving me out Yu?" ask Harry with a charming smile.
Harry held Fadia through that window. Not glass windows, but windows made of wood.
"I can't wait to spend the night with you." whispered Harry.
Fadia could only hide her face from embarrassment.
"I'm home. I'll call." Pamit Harry with a kiss on Fadia's head.
"Be careful" said Fadia after Harry's embrace slipped.
The last night with the status of single and widow ended with a smile because they had just let go of longing.

Two men of different ages now sit together in the living room. While the others are already asleep because tomorrow will have a long day.
The two men were Harry and also the Father. Each one still enjoyed a glass of warm sweet tea.
"Where was that? Already satisfied last kangen her?" god the father.
Harry almost choked on hearing his father's temptation. He was thinking did you see his desperate act with Fadia at the window?
"Mother saw it. Good thing your sister brought your mother and grandparents. Otherwise, Ayu's broom will float into your body." continued the father.
Harry was just surprised to be caught acting earlier. He is really embarrassed at the moment.
"Sorry sir."
Harry just nodded. "Patience a little more. Tomorrow morning Ayu is halal for you. You used to be like that too, can't stand far with your mother. But Harry, in the eyes of the community, if single and girls do like that, just assume normal because tomorrow they will get married. But not with Ayu. She's a widow, so it's gonna get worse in the public eye because many think she's the one who seduced you." His advice was very deep in Harry's heart. He is now shrouded in guilt for his future wife.
"Sorry sir. I was released." great-granddaughter Harry.
Again father nodded. "Be a responsible man, son. Take Ayu and Gadhing with your children to live together in the afterlife."
"God willing, sir."
"And remember. Never distinguish Gadhing from your child later. You're the first one who's gonna beat you up because you're a jerk if that happens."
"It has. Dad wants to sleep. Want to play the same as your mother." continued the father again.
"Boddy."
Both are laughing.
After the father. Harry was getting nervous as he approached kabul. Even he could not sleep when the time had shown at two in the morning.
One WhatsApp message notification from his future wife. He smiled at least there was a little calm seeing the name of his future wife sending a message. Though he did not know the message made him happy or sad.
Fadia :
Our love is the best love because you make my imaan rise, you help me in the dunya and for that reason I want to meet you again in Jannah."
(Our love is the best because you raised my faith, helped me in this world. And for that reason, I want to see you again in heaven)
