Cynthia saw Alena still crying. Cynthia walked over to her, pouring her a glass of water.
"Alena when you're satisfied crying. Tell me what happened." Cynthia looked at Alena curiously.
Alena wiped her tears.
"Nizam .." Alena's voice sounded very soft.
"What's wrong with Nizam?" Cynthia asked again impatiently.
"I called him earlier .."
"And then?"
"He received my call. He sounded very weak. I think he was sick .." Alena said while crying again.
"Come on Alena, talk the whole thing. So what?" Chynthia grew impatient.
"He then asked my willingness."
"Willing what? Quick talk, don't keep crying, you want to make angel kicks the bucket of me ?" Cynthia was grappling with impatience.
"To become his second wife, Hu..hu..hu .." Alena cried even louder.
"Stop that Alena. Ouch .. why do your eyes only work with tears. Why are you so sensitive. Cry and cry. Stop crying ! "
"I can't imagine Nizam loving someone else. I also don't want him to be needed by another woman. I don't understand what happened. He said he loved me but why would he want to marry another woman."
Smart Cynthia seemed to be deep in thought. "I think only one answer. He was arranged by his parents."
Alena caught her puffy eyes staring at the face of her friend who was thinking.
" Hmm..mm .. maybe his parents have prepared a mate for him. Yes .. yes .. that's right. Isn't he from the Azura Kingdom which is still there with matchmaking culture?" Cynthia kept nodding her head. Alena came to think.
"Maybe your guess is right. Earlier Nizam said he was helpless and he apologized for not being able to do his best. Then you know what he did. He said that I agreed he would marry me these weeks." Alena stops her crying
"So what? Now what is your answer."
Alena thought until her brain felt like it was cracking.
"Cynthia He said, He waited for my answer in 1 hour because he was not strong anymore. Do you think why he is not strong? And his voice sounded so weak... Oh my God, Cynthia what should I do. What did his parents do to him ??" Alena started to tear up again.
"I don't know Alena, this incident is very confusing. Nizam is not a young teenager who just grew up. He is an adult and educated. Why could he be pressured by his parents? Why does he not just leave home? With the education he has I'm sure I will get a Good job."
"What should I do? I love him so much. Somehow my hunch says he is in danger. Cynthia..I think instead of losing him I will sacrifice my feelings .."
"Alena !! Please think again correctly. Your love is blind love. What is the difference between you and Elsa? One sacrificed her life and one sacrificed her feelings. Remember Alena only has one life. There are many men waiting for you out there. Don't just think with thoughts. full of emotion. You have to think a lot .. "Cynthia said while shaking Alena's shoulders. Alena was silent.
"He only gave me an hour to think. What happened. It happened."
"What about your family?" Cynthia was still trying to prevent it.
Alena shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe after Nizam struggled, it's time I also had to fight to convince my parents to accept their daughter on the honey by her husband."
Cynthia's hands drooped limply. "Whatever You want honey .." he said, leaning back on the chair. He dreamed that his friend's life would be full of problems.
"May God always be with you." Cynthia praying for her best friend. Alena smiled bitterly. She thanked Cynthia for her prayer. The Prayers of Her Friends gave Her the strength to try to stay strong.
She grabbed her cellphone and touched her finger to the name Nizam. Trembling, he waited for Nizam to say hello.
"Assalamualaikum Alena ..." The voice was still weak.
"Waalaikumsalam Nizam. Alright Nizam I am willing to be your second wife .." Alena's voice trembled.
With an equally trembling voice, Nizam answered. "Alhamdulillah..all praise belongs only to Allah... Thank you, Alena."
Alena hung up on her phone. She hugged Cynthia and cried as much as she could on her friend's shoulder. Cynthia just stroked her friend's head affectionately.
