For Lust
Chapter 36's
A week later, Rega and Hani's wedding day arrives. They celebrate in the building. What a great party. Many invited guests were present, important people were seen arriving.
Kulsum proudly sat down near Mary. The woman felt unusually happy because Rega got a future wife like Hani. Rich is also very royal not counting.
Helena chose to sit outside the building. Rega's second marriage made her a little envious. He had not even once felt this kind of happiness. His eyes dewy considering his fate that was not as good as Rega.
"You crying?" A man thrusts a handkerchief at her.
Helena quickly turned her face away and wiped her tears without taking the man's handkerchief.
"Argo, Mr. Albion and his girlfriend will be here soon. Why are you still here, greet them." Shouted one of the men in black from the parking lot.
"yes sir." The man named Argo re-inserted his handkerchief. "i'll go first."
Helena noticed. That sturdy back with a body slightly taller than him had disappeared behind the crowd of invited guests.
The rose frowned when it accidentally saw Helena's whereabouts. He held off Albion who was about to enter the building. Quickly pulled the man aside so as not to hinder the other invited guests from entering.
"what's wrong?" Ask Albion.
"whose wedding is this really?"
Albion became nervous. He did not intentionally tell Rose that they would come to Rega and Hani's wedding. The man scratched his non-itchy head.
"eeummm.begin.me..".god..."
"Roses?" Helena's call stopped Albion from speaking.
Helena walked up to the Rose quickly. The woman looked at the appearance of the Rose, her forehead shriveling at the matching Rose dress with the suit worn by the man beside her. Helena quickly pulled the Rose's hand.
"Who invited you here?" Ask in a slow tone. He doesn't want anyone to hear it.
"I? what does it have to do with being sick?" Ask Roses.
Helena looked around and whispered softly. He knew that Rega and Hani had not invited Roses on their happy day. Why is the rose here now. His mind went bad, he was sure the Rose must be planning something.
Albion silently watched the rose talking to Helena. The man didn't want to interfere.
"You're not invited. You must be here to ruin Rega and Hani's wedding, right?" He accused without shame.
The rose heard it. He looked directly at Albion and then looked back at Helena sharply.
"i'm not that cute Ma'am. origin Mbak knows, I came here invited someone and absolutely did not know that this is your beloved sister's wedding party." His words are full of emphasis.
Helena fell silent. His eyes immediately looked at Albion and then hissed slowly.
"So.him, that man is your lover?" Ask Helena.
The rose takes a deep breath and then exhales violently. He was very upset to get such an accusation. How could Helena think if she was going to ruin Rega's wedding. The rose left Helena.
"My rose is not yet..."
"I don't want to hear anything anymore." Sela Rose then immediately flanked Albion's hand.
Confused Albion followed the steps of the Rose who dragged him into the building.
Helena looked at him. He was sure, there would be chaos in there if Rega came to see the Rose. Willing to enter but someone prevented his move.
"Wait, do you know Mr Albion's girlfriend?"
"lover?" Helena looked at the man in security uniform strangely.
The man offered her a handkerchief. The man nodded slowly.
"Yes, that woman was talking to you." Evidently.
Helena rounded her eyes. That means Roses don't come here to ruin a marriage. But, since when did the Rose have a lover. Didn't Rega ever say if the Rose loved her so much she would never be able to relate to any man other than herself.
...*************...
Rega smiled broadly at Hani who was now wearing her wedding dress. Both look so good. Hani looks beautiful with a wedding dress that looks very luxurious.
Ijab kabul has done. Both are now legally husband and wife. Hani and Rega sat side by side on the stage. In front of both of them were many invited guests.
This super grand wedding left the employees in the office where Rega and Hani worked amazed. They endlessly praised.
"That's great, it must be very expensive." Called one of the women.
"right, I became envious of Bu Hani." Other women's timpal.
Hani's face became increasingly look haughty. He raised his face high. His self-confidence was multiplied at this moment. He was sure that many women were envious of him now.
Meanwhile from a distance, the Rose clenched her hand. He saw everything. Her happy ex-husband was on stage there. Soon they parted and soon Rega took his place.
"Roses..."
"Albion, why don't you tell me it's a Rega wedding?" Ask the disappointed Rose. His eyes did not even look at Albion so disappointed.
Albion took a long breath. He knew, Roses would definitely be Roses.
"because I knew you wouldn't come if you knew it was Rega's wedding."
The rose closed her eyes. The pain in his heart made the Rose really feel tight. Albion looked at the trembling body of the Rose, quickly holding the hand of the Rose.
"excuse me. But, didn't you say you didn't care about them anymore?"
The rose pulled his hand but it didn't work. Albion's hand grip is so strong. The man looked at her sharply.
"Albion's..."
"i want to make sure you don't really care anymore or not. show them you're okay and don't care what happens. Come on, let's congratulate them."
Albion was getting stronger and stronger in his hand. The man did not want to hear rejection. He just wants to make the Rose strong and make the woman realize that Rega is not a man who deserves love from her.
"Do you still love her?" Albion's question made the Roses instantly silent.
Kulsum feels sore from sitting too long. The old woman moved from her seat, her eyes were looking for Helena who was not coming. But, he accidentally saw the existence of the Rose.
"Rose, why is that woman here?" He muttered softly but Rega who was beside him heard clearly.
"where are you going?" Rega restrains Kulsum who is about to step off the stage.
Hani glances at the child and mother's interaction at a glance and refocuses on the invited guest who is congratulating him.
"Rega, did you invite a rose?" Ask Kulsum slowly.
Kening Rega puckered.
"no, why?"
Kulsum immediately signals Rega to look towards the 12 o'clock where the Roses are. The groom-clothed man was immediately glued to his place. His eyes glared wide looking at the presence of the Rose. What makes him even more surprised is the presence of Albion near the Rose. Seeing the hands of the two interlocked together made Rega hot.
Unknowingly, Rega got off the stage and walked away leaving Hani who was also chasing after him.
Maria and Gusna looked at each other and smiled awkwardly at the invited guests.
"what's going on? why are Rega and Hani running down the stage?" Ask Maria.
"where does Papih know." Answer Gusna.
"mas Rega, where are you going?" Hani tailed with great difficulty because of her wedding dress.
Rega didn't bother him at all. Keep walking towards the Rose with great anger. He forgot that this time was his wedding day with Hani. Even he did not care about the invited guests who started whispering.
Bugh...
Without warning Rega hit Albion right in the face. Albion slumped on the floor hard. Rose and Hani screech at the same time. The two women stared at each other.
The atmosphere of the building became boisterous. Kulsum quickly approached Rega. He didn't want Rega to mess up.
"what's going on?" Gusna was standing behind Hani. "Sir Albion?" He was surprised to see his co-workers.
Angry Rega did not care about the surroundings at all. Even he forgot that now his in-laws were there.
"How dare you approach the rose?" Rega stared intently at Albion.
Albion wiped the corner of his slightly injured lip.
"What is your business. Roses are no longer your people." Albion's words made Rega even more emotional.
Rega was about to throw his punch back. But Hani quickly prevented it.
"mas enough."
"no Hani, this man has dared to approach the Rose..."
"mas, you are now my husband. The rose is just your ex-wife." Pekik Hani unconsciously. The woman immediately closed her mouth tightly when she realized what she was saying.
Gusna and Maria who heard his daughter's words immediately pulled Hani.
"what does this mean? who is that woman exactly?" Maria asked, her eyes glimpsing the Rose.
Rega and Hani immediately looked at their respective places. In his heart, Rega cursed softly. Why did he lose control like this.
The rose that had been silent immediately left everything. That woman can't stay in this building for too long. Albion followed him quickly.
Rega and Hani's marriage has gone awry. The guests whispered to each other. Didn't think something would happen that was so surprising.
...************...
Helena did not dare to approach Kulsum or Rega who were in the crowd at all. The woman chose to stay outside. He thought the Roses would ruin this marriage but it was Rega himself who did it.
"Roses wait..." Albion chased after the Rose who had walked so quickly that it left him.
Helena looked at the Rose and Albion passing by. He was silent, confused as to how. It's so fucked up in there.
The rose stopped its steps right near Albion's car.
"Albion, can you explain all this?" Ask in a annoyed tone.
Albion opened the car door and asked Roses to come in.
"i'll explain it but not here."
Roses follow what Albion says. Although upset but he needs an explanation of this man. Why would Albion take her to Rega's wedding. Everything was chaotic due to his presence.
And inside, Gusna looked very angry. He invites Rega and Hani to come with him to explain everything. She is not deaf, hearing clearly that Hani mentioned about her daughter-in-law's ex-wife.
How could they lie. Covering up the real truth.
Kulsum lowered her head, embarrassed and also feeling very afraid of Maria who was now looking at her sharply asking for an explanation from her as well.
"So.. tell me, who was that woman?" Ask Gusna sharply.
Rega raised his face. His mouth feels locked.
"Say?" Gusna's snapping makes Rega and Hani flinch.
The two stared at each other.
