I'm Not a Substitute

Episode 159's

Alana kept thinking about what Rayan said until late at night. His body did not move in Rayan's embrace, but both eyes remained wide open until late at night even until early morning until finally Rayan reopened both eyes.

“You want to wear a shirt of what color?”

Rayan who just came out of the bathroom smiled at the question. Not usually Alana asked about the color of the shirt that Rayan wanted to wear this morning.

Rayan rubbed her wet hair using a towel that hung around her neck. The man who was bare-chested wearing only short boxer shorts above the knee stepped closer to Alana.

“Whatever color you have prepared for sure I will wear it dear.” Rayan stood behind Alana.

Alana smiled and turned her body. Just then Alana clearly saw the shock on Rayan's face.

“Why?” Alana asked confused.

“Darling why with your two eyes?” Rayan asked softly with both hands touching the eyelids of both eyes Alana made Alana close both eyes. The cold sensation refreshed Alana felt in both eyes as soon as Rayan's long finger rubbed her eyelids.

“Heat..” Rayan Mummings.

Alana put Rayan's hands away from her eyes. The woman stared inexplicably at Rayan who kept staring worriedly at her.

“Didn't you sleep all night Alana?” Tanya Rayan later.

Alana does not want to be honest with Rayan, but Alana also does not want to lie. Rayan knows without Alana telling it means that Alana must always be honest in everything.

“What because of my last night?” Again, Rayan asked and still with such a gentle tone.

Alana was about to open her eyes when Rayan suddenly kissed her lips very gently and affectionately. And through that kiss Rayan was like saying that she will always be there for Alana.

Rayan let go of Alana's lips then smiled. Slowly the man carried Alana's body and took her to the bed.

Alana who was treated so gently could only be silent and resigned. In addition to his eyes that feel heavy and hot, his body also feels very weak with a head that sometimes feels dizzy.

“It's only 5 hours, there's still time for you to sleep dear.” Bisik Rayan then laid Alana's body on the bed.

Rayan went up to the bed. The man grabbed the blanket and enveloped Alana's body to the limit of the stomach. Rayan stared gently at Alana who just quietly resigned and continued to look at her.

“Please your mind dear. Close your eyes.” Lirih Rayan's. Rayan grabbed Alana and replaced the pillow for Alana's head with her arms. Rayan did not care even though she only wore boxer pants. The most important thing is the condition of his wife that he must always take care of and make sure it is okay.

Alana according. Slowly Alana closed her eyes. The smell of roses coming out from the chest of Rayan's field made Alana smile with both eyes closed. Rayan was wearing her bath soap.

Not until 5 minutes Alana was asleep in the warm deck of Rayan. The woman was breathing very regularly, a sign that her sleep was sound.

After feeling Alana really asleep, slowly Rayan released her deck. Rayan replaced her body beside Alana with bolsters before she got off the bed and wore a suit that Alana had prepared when Rayan took a bath.

Once again Rayan turned to look at Alana who was asleep on the bed. Can't bear to leave just like that, Rayan came back closer to Alana. Rayan kissed Alana's forehead gently. His gaze was so soft and loving on the peaceful face of Alana who still looked beautiful even though she was asleep.

“I leave darling.” His whisper before actually passed out of his room and Alana.

Today Rayan had to leave in the morning. Rayan did not even have time for breakfast because at that time Sari and aunty had not finished cooking. Rayan just sipped a little warm lemon tea that was prepared on the dinner table for her by the aunt.

“Again also Luky. We leave now.”

“Good sir.” Nod Luky then immediately opened the door for Rayan.

Rayan got into Luky's car. The handsome man turned his head back to his 2-story residence. This is the first time Rayan went out of the house even before the sun appeared.

Luky's car passed at a speed that was coming out of the yard of Rayan and Alana's house. It made everyone who inhabited the house including Sari ask questions. It was not usual for Rayan to leave so early and set aside breakfast along with Alana.

“What is this?” Sari muttered her saliva worriedly. Sari knows how Rayan was from the past. Rayan is not a fanatic on treasure. Rayan is also not the type of person who rents jobs. Rayan always behaves casually in response to everything. Just like his Daddy, Richard.

At 8, Alana woke up. The woman blinked her eyes a few times and then turned to her side. Alana frowned then rose from her lying down, Rayan was no longer beside her.

Alana gave her a look. His gaze stopped right at his wardrobe and Rayan. The suit of Rayan that Alana prepared was no longer in place.

“She's already departed.” Mumbled Alana with a sigh.

Slowly Alana moved down from the bed. Alana stepped towards the door very slowly. When opening the door Alana was surprised to see Sari who was standing there with a tray where on the tray served breakfast and a glass of milk for her.

“Mother.” Mumbled Alana slowly.

“Good morning.. Breakfast time.” Sari's smile made Alana laugh softly.

“Come on your breakfast. Balcony only.” Said Sari who immediately got a nod of the head from Alana.

Alana lets Sari into her room. The two of them stepped side by side towards the balcony with Sari leading in front.

“Mom made you your favorite sandwich, son. Spend yes.. Do not forget the warm milk so that you and your child are healthier.” Sari was very enthusiastic to put the tray she carried on a small table made of iron in the middle of the balcony room Alana and Rayan.

Sari also pulled up the chair and sat down Alana very gently.

“Means healthy mom is fat so?” Alana asked with her gelatinous laughter. His body which is now very contained even seems to have weighed 2 times his body weight before Alana became pregnant.

“Hahaha.. It's okay what fat darling, as long as it's healthy.” Sari answered with her laugh.

Alana laughed. Alana starts to enjoy a sandwich with scrambled eggs inside which Sari makes herself. The two of them chatted with interspersed laughter that made the two laugh happily.

“Bu, how about we move again to the old house?”

Sari's smile instantly faded upon hearing the question from Alana. Sari silently looked at Alana who was also staring at her waiting for the answer to her question.

Sari sighed. If he had moved in to Rayan's old house, it would have caused a misunderstanding. Caterine, that woman will definitely accuse him more and more and Alana is after the treasure that Rayan has.

“Nak.. If you and your husband want to move there again, I don't mind. But if for mother to participate, I'm very sorry. Mother can't.”
