The Emperor Neptune
MARRIAGE 1

Lisa was already preparing with a beautiful dress wrapped in her tiny and slender body. Likewise with makeup on the face that looks natural but adds to the beauty doubled.

Lisa stared at her reflection behind the mirror, re-examining her makeup and clothes for the perfect performance on her happy day with Mark.

"How are you ready?" ask Uci as soon as he entered the hotel room where Lisa was.

"Udah, what do you think?" Lisa turned her body and showed her clothes and makeup on Uci.

"Amazing out! Very pretty!" Uci widened his eyelids while covering his mouth with both hands in awe.

"Mak Uci seriously?"

"of course! The groom is ready, are you ready?"

"Where's Violet? Why don't you come see me?"

"Violet has been there to meet the invited guests who have come."

Lisa nodded her head.

"Are you ready beb?" ask Uci with spirit.

"Yeah.." Lisa nodded her head after taking a deep breath.

Then Uci invites Lisa to go out of the room and do the whole series of wedding processions with wisdom.

Lisa and Mark hold a reception at night in the hotel ballroom that has been rented for their wedding. The reception was also running smoothly and festively, some famous artists and singers also contributed their golden voices.

Amidst the cheers and happiness of everyone in the great hall suddenly a woman in the middle of the room attracted everyone's attention for floundering and constantly spinning, instantly happy cheers turned into terrified cries and they moved away from the time. All the panicked guests almost left the location, but suddenly the sound of the music thumping back made them all surprised. A moment later the woman who initially floundered earlier suddenly stood up and immediately danced nicely. A few seconds later little by little the guests who had seemed to panic suddenly walked to the middle and moved their bodies with the same movement. Fear and shouting turned back into cheers of spirit and a standing ovation for the dancers. The flashmob lasted approximately ten minutes, ending with a standing ovation.

Not yet let his applause, Chandra's voice on stage again surprised them and suddenly made them set their eyes on the stage. Chandra sings romantic songs and is occasionally interspersed with poetry with verses that are no less romantic. At the end of the song Chandra stood confidently stepping over to Violet who was standing in the front row near the stage, then holding her up to the stage.

"Good night everyone. Please forgive me for interrupting your time and happiness, especially for Lisa and Mark. Let me share a little story here." Chandra took a deep breath and threw it away slowly to neutralize the nervousness that enveloped her before continuing.

"As a singer I had so many fans and they adored me so much. Wherever I go at the concert will be able to easily get love and praise from them. My life is full of fun, I can follow my desires freely without any burden. Until one day I met a girl who was not interested in me at all, she did not adore me much less want me. For the first time in my life I felt like an ordinary man. Yep! My instinct as a man is to feel challenged and to fight for something that I want to get. The first time in my life I was busy finding out about a girl, and I even happily followed her secretly because she always refused me. Even you should know that she never once did she speak sweetly to me."

"Haha..." The laughter of invited guests responds to Chandra's sad story but because it is delivered with a relaxed and a little humor it makes a funny impression.

"But I like it! I like his attitude very fierce. Until one day he disappeared without a trace, I felt crazy for not being able to find him. I no longer care about my career, nor do I care about my life. But I had a second chance and found him. Since then I promise, no matter if she will accept my love or not I will remain with her. I would never ask her to always be sweet to me, because her fierce attitude actually made me feel first love. Tonight, before all of you I will propose to her, I will not force her to accept me as her lover but if she rejects me as her lover I will force her to be my best friend. That way I will be able to continue to take care of her, I can continue to be the place where she wants to be when she feels she needs someone. Xing Arshine Violet I want you tonight to choose, you want to be my lover or my best friend. You have to choose one! And I will respect whatever your decision is. They're all being witnesses." Chadra knelt before Violet with a cute little doll and a city of rings.

"If you take this doll and keep it. If you take this ring and I'll put it in your sweet finger" said Chandra calmly, though his chest was pounding waiting for Violet's answer.

The ballroom's boisterous voice echoed again,

Dozens of mobile phones and camera journalists scrambled to capture the moment.

"Ring, ring, ring,.." the boisterous voice continued to echo making Violet who had not spoken a word became increasingly nervous Only a few people who did not participate were swept away in the boisterous atmosphere, namely, Mark, Mark, mark's parents, Mike, and Suzu. They just threw each other a glance with tense facial expressions and disappointed with what was happening in front of him. How not, because they know that behind the furore that occurred in front of him there was someone who still could not heal his wounds, Emperor Ri Kay Ray.

Both of Vioet's eyes held back, his chest hurt, his memory returning to his first love, Ri Kay Ray, whom he could no longer meet. But she also wants to escape from the shadow of Kay's love, and she has promised to give Chandra a chance and learn to love him.

Violet breathed a rough breath to throw away the tightness in her chest, Violet's hand reaching for the ring box in Chandra's right hand.

All the guests applauded and Chandra immediately attached the ring with a small pearl on it to Violet's ring finger. Chandra then got up and hugged and kissed Violet's hair.

"Thank you Vi for the opportunity you gave me. I promise I won't let you down." Chandra again tightened his embrace, Violet only fell silent in Chandra's arms, there was a pain in her heart only she knew the pain. A drop of water in the corner of his eye escaped from his dam which described the pain.

Chandra parses their embrace, though,

"Well let's continue with the party tonight. Once again thanks to Lisa and Mark, as well as to the invited guests of all." Chandra again took Violet by the hand and asked her to dance with the others.

Meanwhile over the pelaminan Mari whispered,

"What was all through your consent?"

"Of course!"

"You didn't talk about this matter before with me. You owe me an explanation!" mark firmly with a voice of emphasis.

Lisa was silent to understand her mistake.

Mark then leads Lisa to dance with the others. After a while Mark approached Chandra and Violet.

"Can you replace me?" mark asked as he extended his hand to Violet.

"Now he's also my brother!"

"Already Brother Mark just wants to dance with me. why the storm. Change it for a minute." Violet stopped Chandra from giving up and alternating with Lisa.

"You've completely forgotten Vi?" ask Mark without stopping his movements.

"I have to continue my life, brother."

"You like Chandra now?"

"Sister, I'm learning to accept and love her."

"Are you sure you're not hurting yourself Vi?"

"Chandra never hurt me. He loves me with struggle and without hurting me."

"I hope one day you will understand and when you understand the truth you will never regret it as before."

Violet stopped her movements and looked into Mark's probing eyes,

"What do you mean?"

"Sorry Violet. I'm not allowed to explain to you. If you're lucky time will tell you who fought for you." Mark then releases Violet and leaves her to look back at Lisa.

Chandra's approaching Violet,

"Is everything okay? What did he tell you?" ask Chandra suspiciously.

"none. He just gave me congratulations. I'm tired of wanting to rest. Take me to the room." Pinta Violet.

The two of them left the unfinished party for Violet's room.

Violet threw herself against the sofa, while Chandra sat beside her worriedly.

"Want a drink or something?"

"I want to hug you. Can you?" violet asked with my eyes.

"of course. I'm your lover, you can hug me as much as you can."

Violet then hugged Chandra tightly.

"What happened to Vi? Are you suddenly like this?"

"It's okay. I just feel like I need your hug."

"All right." Chandra chose to give up asking Violet instead of forcing her which would definitely make Violet even more sad.

Meanwhile in the party room Suzu was standing petting the party with a wine glass in her right hand.

"Hi!" the sound of the greeting of the man standing before him spread the pleasure of his eyes.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Want to dance with me?"

"I'm sorry I don't like to dance with people I don't know!" reject Suzu while looking at her face.

"alright. My name is Boy, are you?" Boy stretched out his hand.

For a moment Sudu glanced at Boy's hand and looked at his face before finally welcoming Boy's hand.

"Susuke."

"Your name is unique. The dance?"

"All right!"

Suzu finally agreed to Boy's invitation.
