Remembering My Smile
All the invitees had already left the magnificent wedding of Alfin and Amel, the remaining relatives and people closest to them, left,
Alfin, Nathan and Daniel are sitting in a table facing three women who are taking pictures, who else if not Green, Amel and Elin , they really do not want to take off this happy moment without their best photos.
" Rem thank you and sorry for bothering you" Nathan told Daniel.
" You're too much, jo, you forgot that I'm Naina's dad " said Daniel laughed and Nathan laughed.
" What's up with this newlyweds face ? " the insinuator Daniel laughed at Nathan because he saw Alfin's exhausted face.
" It's exhausting the brakes, it looks like mom invited one Indonesian "grunts Alfin while shaking his head, it's true there's nothing in her mind that a wedding reception would be so tiring like this.
" This only happens once in a lifetime & this is the last marriage in your family, so it is only natural that mother and father invite all their relatives "did Daniel appease Alfin with a laugh .
" We go to the edge of the pool, I need some fresh air "Take the alfin, ' I'll take it , Nathan and Daniel immediately agreed because they also felt quite stuffy in the room that had just filled many people with various kinds of perfume.
" Dear , we go to the edge of the pool, if you are done immediately following "cried Alfin on the three women who are still engrossed in the style of their photos , and Amel only showed the thumb a sign that he approved.
Alfin had already opened the tuxedo suit he was wearing which left a white shirt, as well as Daniel and Nathan , what distinguishes Nathan is leaving a black shirt while Daniel with the same colored shirt with Alfin.
" Wine seems good" said Alfin and without asking Nathan and Daniel, he immediately called the waiter who passed them and ordered two bottles of alcohol.
and before long three women approached them, with Amel who had opened his wedding dress changed with a short dress in pink, pink , because it was only the clothes that he brought to the hotel where they stayed tonight and the place where their wedding was held this afternoon.
" Hey my wife "greet Alfin smile at Amel.
" Wife now" continued Elin.
" yes, yes dong, it is the wife of "sahut Alfin who immediately drew spoiled Amel's hand.
" the halal stamp" continued Alfin again and Amel only shook his head, because he was amused by the behavior of the man who had just become her husband.
" Gini nih if the newlyweds are tacky, we who have been ordinary for a long time will be a pity "congratulate Nathan and pull Green's hand to sit nearby.
" Please respect the unmarried" Elin said with an annoyed face.
" Sorry Lin" said Alfin laughing.
" To close this happy day, how about we play Gme" Green suggested with a smile naka.l
" Again" continued Alfin and Nathan.
" What game is truth or dare ? " asked Elin and Green immediately put his head on, Elin was silent for a moment, he recalled the last time they played the game and there was still Gerry.
" Why, you don't want lin ? " asked Amel because he saw the face of Elin who arrived just moody.
" emm.no, I'm going along" said Elin trying to smile.
" You know the truth or dare game, right rem ? " ask Alfin to Daniel "a little "so said Daniel.
" and Wine seems good to accompany this game" said Alfin because the waiter had come with two bottles of wine on his order.
After asking the waiter for an empty bottle, the six people were already sitting in a circle by the pool, although Daniel still did not understand the way the game was played but he also did not want to miss it .
" who cannot answer should drink this wine with one breath" explained Alfin.
" Who fears "said Amel.
" wow cheat, I can't drink alcohol" said Green who panicked
" the choice was only two Green, drunk or honest, and again here too there was Nathan" said Alfin
" wah must be exciting this "sung Amel excited while Daniel just silence and continue to observe how the game.
" To start the game how about we cheers first "take Alfin because the air is getting cold and wine can help warm their bodies a little.
" cheeerrrss's "cried them together.
" From the first time I asked the question yes" said Amel who immediately took over the game.
"emm. Nathan's sister, Green or nNaina" asked Amel laughing.
" Missy I can't pick 'em, they're just as valuable" explains Nathan.
" Then one glass" said Alfin who immediately poured Nathan's glass with wine, and Nathan immediately drank it because it could not answer Amel's question.
Green looks towards Amel , to agree to Elin's wish .
" okay well Miss "said Green and everyone immediately agreed, while Daniel just kept staring at Elin in silence.
" Lin are you still strong with alcohol ? " tanya Green laughed "of course, I am still his queen "said Elin laugh and how many glasses he drank the wine.
They continue their conversation accompanied by two bottles of wine back in the message, Green is already asleep on Nathan's lap due to the influence of a little alcohol that makes him become quickly sleepy , while Amel was leaning on Alfin's shoulder listening to what the three men were talking about with my eyes.
While Elin consciously spoke, even though if calculated may have been more than one bottle of wine entered his body,
Daniel's eyes stopped staring at Elin, who was sitting with lips moving as she sang the song and her body moved to the right and left.
" Are you drunk? " diel asked closer to Elin, and Elin shook her head with a smile.
" I'm still fine sir " said Elin laughing.
Daniel smiled he was quite silly with his own question, where anyone drunk would answer if he was drunk.
" It looks like I have to go in first, Green is asleep" said Nathan, who regained consciousness and raised Green's body to bring him inside the hotel.
" We also seem to have to go in ", continued Alfin.
" What about Elin ? " ask Daniel who is confused.
" You take care of the brakes, take him to his room later, we first, bye "say Alfin who then immediately went with Amel who was also asleep.
" emm.. do you want to go to your room ? " ask Daniel and Elin shook her head again" I wanted to be here, ah I was always troubling "drunken Elin.
" Do you want to accompany me ?" he continued and Daniel nodded his head.
" They won't always accompany me" he said with glassy eyes.
" Hey what's up ? " ask Daniel who became panicked at Elin's drunken behavior.
Elin lowered her head with a clear grain that suddenly fell on her smooth face.
" You know I'm lonely here? ? , why did you leave me gerry, why are you so mean to leave me without saying goodbye" said Elin who had sobbed , Daniel kept silent he remembered that Gerry was the man who became Elin's lover when they met in Lombok who also met him.
" Do you miss him?, you can look for him later" said Daniel, Elin smiling at Daniel's absurd words.
" Are you telling me to die ? " said Elin laughing "if I die, I don't know in heaven where he lives now" he continued with a face that returned sad and along with tears that instantly dripped.
Daniel fell silent again, now he understood the man was no longer in the same world as them .
and immediately he wiped away the rest of the tears on Elin's face.
" Don't cry anymore 'your makeup is ruined by your tears" Daniel said.
" But I still look beautiful ? "
" Certainly, "Daniel laughed because of Elin's drunken, funny face, but her eyes showed sadness.
" Don't laugh like that, I don't like it "
" Why ? " ask Daniel confused.
" Because you're so sweet with your smile it's "clear Elin who makes Daniel's face suddenly blush" and you know your smile reminds me of someone.
" It's true, but no one else has a sweet smile like me" Daniel laughed
" no, I've seen a smile like that, but I forgot where to see it "
" Maybe in Lombok" said Daniel and without answering Elin directly holding his head which suddenly became very heavy ,
" It looks like I'm about to faint" Elin said before her body collapsed on Daniel.
" It turns out you still remember my smile" said Daniel smiling with Elin's body in his arms.
