I'm Not a Substitute

Episode 79's

The next day Caterine was cheerful again when she was at the dinner table. The woman even greeted Alana and Rayan who had just come down from the 3rd floor.

“Sechil no longer down bi?” Alana asked the aunt who was pouring a glass drink next to Alana's plate.

“So I've been up and brought her down but miss Sechil doesn't want madam.” Answer aunty.

“Let mommy up.”

Rayan turned her head quickly to Caterine who arrived to install the body. The woman even kept smiling at Rayan as well as Alana.

“Mommy has realized everything Rayan. And mommy realizes mommy has been very outrageous on Sechil.” He said with a sad expression.

Rayan and Alana just kept quiet. Although confused by the sudden change Caterine, the two chose not to speak. They did not even comment when Caterine took the rice, side dishes, vegetables and a glass of water and took it from the dining table to the elevator.

“What is not a dream?” Alana asked after Caterine passed.

Rayan laughed softly hearing that as well as the aunt who was still there. It is quite strange to see considering Caterine who since 2 weeks ago continued to silence Sechil arrived back to care for it. But Rayan did not want to be prejudiced. Sechil is Caterine's favorite daughter. It was natural that Caterine could not stay Sechil for long.

“Hopefully mommy can really accept this reality yes.”

Alana nodded in agreement as well as aunt. They both agreed because they felt they could not bear to see the lonely Sechil and felt ignored by people who had loved him so much.

Rayan and Alana had breakfast alone without Caterine who was delivering breakfast to Sechil. The two of them ate quietly without any chatter considering that Rayan had almost misfortune this morning.

After finishing breakfast, Alana drove Rayan to the front of the house. A gentle kiss of Rayan landed Alana before entering her car.

Alana waved her hand as the car driven by Mr. Lim passed carrying Rayan out of the spacious yard of her house. Alana took a breath. 2 Weeks without interference from Sechil and Caterine made Alana feel very comfortable in the house.

“Ekhem !”

The sound of Caterine's decheman made Alana frown. Slowly Alana turned her body and found Caterine standing on the doorstep with her hands folded under her chest. There was also Sechil standing with his own eyes.

“In a minute everything will change Alana. You are ready to get out of this house.” Caterine said arrogantly.

Alana raised both her eyebrows not understanding what Caterine meant. But scaring is also useless. Caterine will always feel right even if she is wrong.

“Come Sechil.”

Sechil was silent as Caterine holding him passed. But Sechil had a sweet smile at Alana who was getting confused.

“What smile is it?” Alana asked.

Not wanting to bother with what Caterine said, Alana entered the house. That woman sure can handle Caterine as well as Sechil. What's more there are aunts and other servants that Rayan has assigned to continue protecting her.

On the day before noon Alana chose to relax in the backyard while enjoying a plate of fruit and reading a magazine. The woman was sitting among the flowers that were blooming at the time.

“Alana.”

Feeling someone calling Alana turned away from the magazine she was reading. Alana blinked her eyes several times when she found Sechil standing next to the chair that Alana was sitting on.

“I mean.. Brother Alana.” Repeat Sechil clumsy.

Understanding with Alana's confused gaze, Sechilpun lowered his head. The girl realized she had been doing this all along to Alana was wrong. Sechil hates for no reason. Sechil even had the intention to separate Alana with Rayan, his own brother.

“I'd like to apologize to you brother.. I realize what I've been doing all this time is wrong.” Sechil said slowly.

Alana squinted both her eyes. Alana then looked at the glass door. Alana felt suspicious with apology when Sechil arrived at her.

“Silent sister, mommy is not home anymore. I asked mommy to buy rujak so I could meet my sister and apologize for all my mistakes.” Sechil.

Alana sighed softly. Caterine did not seem to be around the two of them.

“Sit.” Alana's command while shifting her body gave a place for Sechil to sit next to her.

Sechil nodded his head then immediately sat himself beside Alana.

“I've never hated you or mommy. I'm just wondering, where exactly is my fault so you two can hate me so much.” Alana started talking to Sechil.

Sechil just kept listening. What happens to her makes her realize that Alana and Rayan do love her.

“But it doesn't matter to me. As long as I don't make a mistake, I won't back down. I'm also the lady of the house. I'm Rayan's legal wife. And I have rights in this house. Whatever you're gonna do I don't care. I'll stay in this house for Rayan.”

Sechil smiles. Sechil slowly raised his head to look at Alana who was sitting next to him.

“Kakak is lucky to have kak Alana.” Puji Sechil looked straight ahead.

Alana smile.

“How are you?” Alana asked without looking at Sechil.

“It's better than yesterday sis.” Answer Sechil.

Alana nodded her head. Alana is eager to ask about who the father of the fetus is conceived by Sechil now but Alana feels doubtful. Alana is afraid Sechil will return slumped and fragile like yesterday.

“Thankful.“ Alana's smile was thin.

Sechil nodded again. Sechil glanced at Alana who again began to focus on the magazine she was holding.

“Kak.”

“Ya..” Saut Alana was slow but her gaze kept on the magazine she was holding.

Sechil swallowed his saliva. Somehow Sechil arrived to remember the figure of Sakura who he had once been ignorant. A patient figure and full of tenderness. The figure who also never retaliated to anything that Sechil and Caterine did.

“Sechil !!” Caterine's cry made Sechil flinch. Sechil hurriedly got up from his seat. His face looked very panicked when he saw Caterine who was standing on the side of the garden's glass door by carrying clear plastic containing the rujak that Sechil wanted.

“Eem.. Brother, I'm going to mommy first. Thanks for chatting.” He said then hurriedly passed to Caterine.

Alana who saw it was silent. Alana did not even turn her head at all to Sechil who stepped over to Caterine who called out her name.

Alana sighed then shook her head. The woman went back to reading the magazine in her hands not wanting to think too much about Sechil or Caterine.
