Chapter 21  The solemnization was attended by the male members of the royal family, ministers and religious officers. Sofiah was represented by her father and her brother. Matin was sitting calmly on the groom seat and in front of him was the solemnizer, who was giving a sermon about the marriage. Once the solemnization was going to take place, Sofiah's father, Major General Abdullah sat in front of him to perform the solemnization. Major General Abdullah held Matin's hand to start the solemnization. “I give you the hand of my daughter in marriage, Her Highness Sofiah Binti Abdullah with the mahr one thousand dollars.”“I accept the hand of Her Highness Sofiah Binti Abdullah in marriage with the mahr one thousand dollars.” With that, Matin and Sofiah were officially husband and wife. When Matin shook hands with his father-in-law, Major General Abdullah had a word with him. “I give my one and only daughter to you

Chapter 23  After they shared their first kiss, both of them were staring at each other with Matin placing both his hands on the counter and trapped Sofiah. She was still flustered at his sudden kiss and unable to think straight. Her heart was beating so fast and she could barely breathe. “W-W-What was that?” Finally, she found her voice to speak out. He caressed her cheek with a smile and replied, “That's called a kiss. Or we call our first kiss.” She blinked a few times looking blankly at the floor. Then, she realised that he had stolen her first kiss. “Do you like it?” he asked, cautiously.She looked up at him and blurted out, “I never dreamed of having a first kiss in the kitchen.” He chuckled when he realised that she was unhappy with the location of their first kiss. “Then, where are we supposed to have a first kiss in your dream? Is it in the bed?” he asked with a naughty grin. She shrugged

Chapter 25  The local hospitals were damaged and victims were treated outside of the hospital. Their medical team was placed in two different affected areas to treat the victims. Meanwhile, the military team helped the local authority to clean the debris and search and rescue efforts. Matin who was on his way to the affected area stopped by the medical camp for a visit. “What brings you here, Captain?” Nurse Aminah asked when she saw Matin walked inside the camp without prior notice. “I'm just checking. Is everything okay?” he asked, his eyes were searching for Sofiah. “Everything is good here,” Nurse Aminah answered with a teasing smile, realising that his main intention was to meet his wife.Then, he spotted Sofiah who was treating a patient. He turned to look at Nurse Aminah and said, “Make sure to report me if anything happens. I don't want any of you to fall into trouble. Do you copy that?” “Copy, Sir.” 

Chapter 27  “Lieutenant, as you can see, we are overwhelmed by the injured victims. We don't have enough doctors to perform this surgery. I hope you can help us,” Doctor Adit explained. Sofiah looked around the emergency room and she could see a lot of patients in the room. “But I'm here as a humanitarian team, not to perform any surgeries,” she replied, looking concerned. “I can't leave this emergency room. Can you help us?” he asked her again. Sofiah thought for a while about all the consequences before answering him. At last, she replied, “I can, but I need an approval letter from your upper officer.” He smiled and said, “Alright. I can handle the letter. It will take only a few minutes. Now, help me to keep an eye on the patients for a while.” “Alright.” She was staring blankly at the floor when she heard a familiar voice called her name. “Sofiah!” Matin was running towards her. She

Chapter 29  Sofiah performed CPR again.  “Please!!!! Please!!!! Please!!!!” “Lieutenant,” a soldier called her. “He can't leave me! He can't!” she said while crying. She performed CPR over and over. But still no response. He wasn't breathing and his heart stopped beating. Sofiah was exhausted after performing CPR. Another soldier approached her and said,“Lieutenant, he has been drowning for quite some time. I’m so sorry to say this, but I think you should stop.” She couldn't believe that he left her. She was crying hard while hugging him. “You promised me that you won't leave me. You can't leave me like this. You can’t.” Everyone was keeping their mouth shut. “I love you, Matin. Please wake up. I need you to hear this. I love you so much. Don't leave me.” “Lieutenant,” a soldier held her shoulder, trying to calm her. She performed mouth
