Laughter spilled loudly from Darwin's lips after hearing Randy's recent grievances. Ever since his cousin decided to get married soon, the three of them had been gathering almost every night to chat over coffee or play billiards.
"So, after marriage, you're asked to fast first?" Darwin said, holding back his laughter. "Are you sure you can resist temptation? Especially when you're sharing a bed and sleeping side by side?"
For God's sake, he was genuinely concerned about the fate that the narrow-eyed man in front of him would face. But, on the other hand, Darwin felt somewhat pleased to see his 'cursed' cousin suffering like this. At least, Randy could experience the kind of suffering he had once endured.
"Just imagine, Randy, who is usually the center of attention for women, with many offering themselves for free to sleep with him. Now, after getting married, he's told to fast by his own wife. Quite pitiful."

"Mom, are you sure that Ghea, that nerd, wants to marry RRandy Walters? He's famous, you know, Mom. Handsome, the only child, and rich. Why not arrange him to marry me?" Grisella asked her mother Clara.The two of them looked relaxed on the balcony, chatting. Since a while ago, they had been discussing Ghea's engagement and imminent marriage plans.As the second child in the Diharja family, Grisella was clearly jealous. She, who considered herself superior to Ghea, found it unfair that her stepsister got this golden opportunity. According to Grisella's perspective, Randy was more suitable for her. They were a match. Both respectable, well-educated, and with excellent prospects."But you're prettier, Grisell. You could get someone better and more everything than Ghea's fiancé. Besides, Ghea has to marry Veronica's son to get out of this house soon. I'm fed up with her being with us for so long."
In Indonesia, the wedding ceremony is indeed quite extensive, especially when it comes to the customs and cultures of specific ethnic groups. From the engagement process to the wedding day, each step has its own unique procedures.Among the many ethnic groups in Indonesia, the Chinese ethnic group is one that has unique customs, both in the engagement process, known in Chinese as Tingjing, and in the dowry ceremony, also known as Sangjit. These two processes are exactly what Randy did when he was about to marry Ghea.This morning, for example, around ten in the morning, Randy's extended family arrived at Ghea's residence. According to the initial agreement, they would conduct the Tingjing or engagement process, followed by a lunch together with both extended families.It was evident how enthusiastic the Diharja family was in welcoming the arrival of the Prawira family, who brought many gifts that morning. After the recep
"Are you happy?"In the evening, after dinner together, before entering their room, Mario decided to stop by his younger sister's room. From the front door, it was clear that Ghea was busy arranging some of the gifts from Randy's parents today."I don't think so," Ghea whispered without diverting her gaze from the arranged boxes in front of her.Mario smiled. He walked in, then sat on the floor right next to his sister. Affectionately, he messed up Ghea's freely flowing hair."Why aren't you happy about getting married? Besides, the guy is not bad at all. Handsome and wealthy. Stable, still single, and visually seems kind."Ghea stopped her hands, which had been busy arranging the boxes. She glanced briefly, then shifted her sitting position to face her brother."I don't know my future husband, bro. It would be a lie if I said I'm happy. We both know Randy is
"Sweetheart, are you ready?"Ghea nodded. The wedding procession was unfolding before her eyes. There was no way she could step back, especially with the intention of escaping and embarrassing her parents. The only thing Ghea could do was keep moving forward and hope that the decision she made would bring happiness."Ghea is ready, Dad," the girl whispered, then lowered her head. Emotional, as she knew she would soon be separated from her father. "After we get married, can I still visit Dad? Can I still be affectionate with Dad?"Maxwell smiled as he gently squeezed Ghea's wrists, looking at his little daughter. "Even though you're getting married and have a husband, you'll always be Daddy's girl. Whenever you need a place to lean on, Daddy will always be there for you."Ghea's chest felt tight. Trying to hold back tears, she chose to hug her father before truly heading to the ceremony. Satisfied wit
"Do you want to sleep with me?"Those words slipped effortlessly, accompanied by a teasing glance from Ghea. Deliberately provoking her husband, who now looked visibly tired after spending time welcoming the guests at their wedding party."I know you must be really tired, Om. Come on, let's sleep together."Ghea threw that statement while patting the bed with her hands intentionally, signaling Randy to accept the invitation to sleep next to her.Of course, Ghea was just playing around. In reality, she wouldn't be willing to sleep in the same bed with the annoying man she clearly didn't love.She did this intentionally to retaliate for what Randy had done at their wedding event. How could he kiss her without any prior briefing?"Tsk! You don't have to lure me," Randy scoffed with a weary expression. He continued to gaze straight at Ghea, staring sharply with a look that was difficult to interpret.While Ghea rolled her eyes again, laughing mischievously. She became even more delighted
For the past few years, Randy has been living separately from his parents. He deliberately chose to live independently because he didn't want any interference in anything related to his privacy.Before getting married, his parents offered a new house for him and his future wife. However, instead of accepting, Randy declined the offer. He thought that the current house he was living in was more than enough for his small family.After having breakfast and getting ready, Randy wasted no time and took Ghea to his house. Upon arrival, all the dedicated workers gathered to welcome Randy and his wife, including Alvin, Randy's assistant."Welcome, Mr. Randy and Mrs. Ghea."Arini, a 45-year-old woman who was the head of the household assistants, warmly greeted her employer. Along with the others, they quickly took all of Randy and his wife's belongings to be moved to their room."Ghea," R
Since it's still the post-wedding vacation, this evening, Randy deliberately took Ghea to visit his parents' house. Moreover, there was an event tonight for welcoming the new daughter-in-law and the new member of the extended Walters family.Actually, Ghea is usually lazy to attend parties like this. But considering she had no authority to refuse and it seemed obligatory as a new member, she surrendered and complied with what Randy had ordered."Why are you still daydreaming?" Ghea sighed. She wasn't sure what she was thinking about this time."I'm thinking, Uncle.""Thinking about what? National debt?""Not exactly.""Then what? Why are you so confused? Hurry up, change your clothes and get ready. We need to be on our way by six, or we'll get stuck in traffic."Ghea grumbled irritably. Couldn't Randy be a bit more sensitive to what she m
After chatting with both of his parents, Randy then invited Ghea to go around while getting to know each of his cousins one by one. This was deliberately done so that his wife could get to know them and later blend in with them."How about it, Ran? Have you used my gift?" Darwin teased when they met each other."So far, not yet. Originally, I even wanted to throw it away. But after thinking about it, it might be useful in the near future. Quite a box full of it, can be used multiple times," Randy deliberately replied, glancing and winking playfully at Ghea. As mentioned, he really enjoyed teasing his wife."There, see? What did I say? My gift couldn't possibly be useless. Besides, Ghea, you don't need to worry about getting pregnant; those condoms are expensive. So, the quality is unquestionable. Leak-proof club. And even when you put it in, you won't feel the rubber at all. Feels just like real skin."
