Chapters 19.
“You see him?” tanya Fasad intended to ask Rayyan. The car started to exit the gate area. Leaving the large building. “He saw you earlier, but from my glasses, he didn't just look.”
“No matter,” replied Zara is not the same as the contents of his heart. His eyes were staring at the streets that were falling on the heat of the sun. The heat, however, exceeds what is felt at the moment.
“Di has become a husband, who will later become a father. While you? You still feel lost yourself.
“Nobody told you to like it, Zara. Don't continue your stupidity!”
“Continue to where after this?” The facade asked again.
“If the letters are in order, we go to the boutique. I don't have a kebaya for our wedding.”
“Which boutique?”
“Butik subscription aja.”
“I'm sure they can't work on your request within a week, Zar. Please don't let you press them, yes.”
“We do not buy which already exists.”
“Mami you haven't been told?”
“I'm lazy to tell them, just tell me later if we're legitimate.”
The facade closed the eyes and took a deep breath. Trying to fortify himself to always be within his limits and know himself. Zara used it as a stepping stone. Not more.

The wedding day is getting closer to make Zara more dilemma and not necessarily direction. And to get rid of his boredom, he tried to go to the nightclub.
But after getting there, some pieces of the lecture that Rayyan delivered some time ago while still often with him, haunt the mind. He hesitated to get out of the car.
“Verily the greatest thing that can cause a person's heart to become weak and contemptible is sin and vice. Because sin and vice can take away the roots of faith and can cause harm and evil" he explained in easy-to-understand language, “and he (sin and vice), he explained, it is the main factor that causes a person to disobey Allah SWT. There is also a place in question is all the places that have been used or occupied when someone did maksiat in a state alone.”
At that time, Zara sat cross-legged in front of Rayyan who was only limited to a small table, containing several books and stationery. Zara continued to pay attention, occasionally staring at her perfect face which was seriously explaining the lesson in question. Only certain people understand that the eyes are not just staring. But also admire.
At first glance, there is nothing strange. But another for those who see because the two seem very harmonious like a married couple who are studying with— especially with the clothes they wear. Because without realizing it, the two compactly wear black robes.
Without Zara knowing. Lately Miranda was very disappointed because her plan to match the two, has now failed. Miranda thinks this failure happened because of the news of prostitution. For a long time he was confined because he was very ashamed of everyone and felt failed in educating his son.
It is unfortunate, but the news is not necessarily true.
There, he began ordering a drink. In her solitude, she hugged herself while crying bitterly. Luckily, the atmosphere seemed quiet and he took the last seat, so no one realized that this figure was him.
“Pi .. I miss your warm embrace. Your soothing mouthpiece. Your soothing voice, your comfortable shoulders, your firmness protecting me and your unparalleled love,” he told the teary-eyed figure plastered on his phone screen, “I don't know what to look like, Pi. I lost my direction again. I'm just like you, Pi. Still can't accept reality.”
If you can, maybe he better catch up with his papa over there. But after many times of thinking, this was too good for the Pebinor. Because if he dies, his papal treasure will automatically move into his hands. Huh, what a delicacy the villains in this world are. When is the punishment? The feeling of his life is good!
•••
The week that Zara wasn't really waiting for it finally arrived as well. In fact, he did not expect this marriage at all that he felt was only a compulsion. Somehow the continuation of this household later. He did not know because he himself never dreamed of being with his own best friend.
“Then, I once imagined being able to be with men like ... ah, forget!” Zara shook her head to remove Rayyan's face that often appeared wherever she was. Like a subtle creature.
Zara already wears a kebaya complete with a simple hijab dressing. The facade is like that. Wearing clothes, peci and looking to keep a little bit of her shell for a few days to add to her masculine impression.
“I Facade,” her inner self repeatedly.
No one was present except the ruler and the witnesses who were the closest people to Fasad and Zara himself. No one can take pictures, let alone spread the news to the media. Remembering, 'what' is the real purpose of their marriage.
“Good, Mas Fasad, Ms Zara, are you ready?”
“Ready, Sir,” answer both simultaneously.
“Then, please follow me.”
The atmosphere is so wise when hearing the ruler read a prayer. Moreover, at the time Fasad shook the man's hand and replied to him loudly. The hair feels goosebumps to remove sweat spots. Only Facade knew that he was going through this marriage in earnest. I don't know what the cause is. But as she watched Zara cry, the desire to protect her grew even greater. Breaking his identity so that he feels back to being a whole man.
“How's witness? Valid?” ask Penghulu who was answered immediately by the witnesses with the word ‘sah’ simultaneously.
But when Penghulu began reciting the closing prayer, three people entered the room. Miranda, Ruben and Michael. Make everyone gasp. No exception to the newlyweds.
“So small does that mean the position of a mother to you, Zara? Until you get married, you don't want to involve me to get into it,” he said with an outpouring of anger. Yes, only this time did Zara see her mother very angry, because usually, she did not see this kind of expression other than humbling herself and showing guilt.
“Let me be insulted. I am the one who gave birth to you, took lives to bring you to the world,” continued Miranda again with a sigh, “ the past will never change until anytime. Everyone knows that except you!”
Seriate.
