For five minutes, Bramanto had been waiting for Ratu to come out of his room.
Bram's heart calmed a little when Ratu came out with the clothes he bought.
Without saying a word, Ratu walked like an undead beside Bramanto..
In front of the headman and guardian for Ratu and two witnesses as well as some of Bramanto's confidants, Finally, the marriage ceremony between Bramanto and Ratu was carried out and went according to Bramanto's wishes.
"You two are religiously married, and are legally husband and wife." said the headman seriously.
For Ratu her world seemed to have collapsed, there was no longer a speck of hope for her to be happy.
"Is this karma for me? for living a dark life for so many years?" Ratu said in her heart with tears running down her cheeks.
"Ratu, come with me." said Bramanto while holding Ratu's arm when everyone had left the place.
"Do not touch me." said Ratu slapping Bramanto's hand roughly.
