(Not) The Substitute

Eps 15 - Not a Runaway

The slap depicting anger and jealousy landed perfectly on Elnaz's left cheek, causing Elnaz to instantly shed tears. Arfan was no less surprised and he immediately pulled back Elnaz's body and hugged her. He stared intently at Elsa, a glare so keenly depicting anger, disappointment and hatred.

While Elsa, she herself seemed surprised by what she had done. He stared at the hand that had slapped his sister.

"Dek, sorry sister.." - Elsa and she stepped forward but Arfan immediately took Elnaz back.

"Don't you dare approach my wife!" hiss Arfan was sharp, his gaze seemed to want to kill Elsa at this time "What kind of woman do you dare to go into the room of a married man, where your ethics as a stranger, huh?" he still sizzles sharply. Even Arfan spoke by fusing his teeth, holding back the anger that was stirring up because of what Elsa did to her Elnaz.

While Elnaz was still sobbing in her husband's arms, never once did she get a slap in her lifetime.

Elsa herself shed tears, and she looked regretful "I was not on purpose, Fan. I'm sorry.." she said.

"Get out!!!" arfan's word but Elsa shook her head, she tried to reach Elnaz but Arfan distanced her. As if Elsa was a dangerous disease to Elnaz "Get out before I drag you!!!" Arfan was half-screaming and it was inviting the attention of his mother who was outside.

He immediately approached them "What's wrong?" ask Yuni.

"Slow him out!!" pinta Arfan on Yuni which of course makes Yuni shocked.

"What the fuck are you, Fan? Elsa came with good intentions, she just wanted to give you and Elnaz cake" exclaimed the upset mother.

"But the slap he gave to Elnaz and it will never be forgiven" Arfan said, making Elsa's heart even worse.

Arfan hates her so much because Elsa left him and now Arfan hates her even more because he has slapped Elnaz in front of Arfan's own eyes.

"Fang, please... I know you're mad at me, maybe...Maybe you're just making Elnaz an escape, right? You're just using Elnaz to get back to your heartache just like me, aren't you? You're just using her to make me jealous, right?"

"Glam!!!!"

Arfan had raised his hand in the air about to slap at Elsa to silence her mouth that spoke carelessly. But quickly Elnaz held Arfan's hand.

Still with tears in his eyes, Elnaz stared at Arfan. Nye's lips quivered because the crying did not subside.

"Is that true?" lirih Elnaz who immediately made Arfan's heart like a sword. Pain, perching.

"Darling, Princess... That's not true" Arfan replied in a soft voice. She cupped Elnaz's cheek and wiped her tears gently "I'm not using you, dear. I didn't make you run away either" Arfan said so seriously as he looked at Elnaz so deeply. Hope Elnaz believes his words.

But Elnaz shook his head, he stepped away from Arfan and it made Arfan's chest feel tight.

"You just made me run away, used me to make Sister Elsa jealous. Use me to repay your heartache to Elsa, don't you?" accuse Elnaz with a trembling voice and a growing weeping. Arfan shook his head, rejecting all the accusations.

"I'm your sister, how can you be that kind of person?"

It's the oomph that makes Arfan's heart more and more sick.

You, Elnaz never said your word to Arfan and now he's even reluctant to say the word big brother, Elnaz must be very angry.

"That's not true, Elnaz, honey. For God's sake, that's not true" said Arfan.

But Elnaz refused to listen to Arfan's answer. He ran out of the room that felt so sad.

While Arfan, now he stared intently at Elsa who was still crying.

"Who dare you interfere in my household, huh?" hiss Arfan while pointing right in front of Elsa's face "You're nothing more than my ex-fiance who has no rights in my life, we have nothing to do with this cousin, Elsa. Even if I could, I would love to end this blood relationship with you"

The more heartbroken Elsa heard Arfan's words, so angry Arfan at her?

Elsa could only mute with a face that was already flooded with tears. He slowly stepped back before he finally ran home.

"You shouldn't talk to Elsa like that, Fan. Understandably she is angry, she loves you so much" exclaimed Yuni who had only been a spectator since.

"Mama can also come out of my room" said Arfan coldly which made Yuni growl restrained and he immediately came out of his child's room.

.........

Elnaz walked without direction, his heart ached, his soul shaken and his life? Maybe his life was ruined.

Tears kept flooding his smooth cheeks and unwilling to stop even though he had already wiped them out again and again.

"Why should I, Lord? What's my fault? I love Elsa, Brother Arfan. But why do they keep hurting me?" her weeping in the middle of her sobs.

The sound of the motor horn made Elnaz surprised and upon hearing Andy's voice calling out to him, he quickly wiped away his tears.

"El..."

"Yes?" Elnaz turned his head and Andy looked surprised to see the face of Elnaz.

"You cry, El? What's up?" ask Andy while getting off the bike. Elnaz simply shook his head and forced his lips into a smile.

"I already know what happened, Mama told me. You married Arfan, right?" asked Andy to make sure and Elnaz smiled wryly while nodding softly.

"Your mama must have thought I took Kak Arfan from Kak Elsa huh? Or think I'm an affair, Arfan? The neighbors thought I was" Elnaz said softly and Andy shook his head.

"Not at all, El Precisely Mama was very curious what actually happened with Elsa and Arfan. Even so curious, Mama to tell me to ask directly to you. Ordinary, the soul of mother kopo. But Mama didn't want to assume it herself. So I asked him directly"

"The story is short but painful" replied Elnaz as he walked. Andy followed him while guiding his motorcycle.

They walked slowly and Elnaz was honest about what happened. At least there are still people who want to know the truth and not judge Elnaz.

Andy who heard it was so shocked and incredulous.

"It's crazy, El... How can" his comments after hearing all the stories of Elnaz and Elnaz just put his shoulders.

"Yg his name is a secret of God and true surprise yes, can not be guessed at all" he continued.

"Stupid?" elnaz and Andy quickly nodded "Do you think I'm Kak Arfan's mate?"

"It could be, proof that you're married. Already a husband and wife, whereas dating and fiancee Arfan kan Elsa. Eh married her even Elnaz, what's her name if not a soul mate"

Elnaz just laughed blandly hearing Andy's words, they were about to walk again but arrived Arfan's car came, followed by Arfan who immediately got off the car and approached Elnaz.

"El, let's go home" said Arfan softly but Elnaz shook his head firmly and he was reluctant to look at Arfan. Arfan let out a heavy sigh, and then he immediately lifted Elnaz's body like a sack of rice making Elnaz strangled in shock, Arfan put him in the car and even put his seat belt.

He himself immediately entered and immediately returned to running the car.

Andy who saw it just gawk and then gelang gelang head.

"Really this world is a stage play "
