I'm Not a Substitute

Episode 92

On the way to Sechil's appointment and Ramon the atmosphere in Rayan's car was silent. Both Rayan, Alana, and Sechil the three of them just kept quiet with their thoughts.

Sechil who feels groggy because he will meet with Ramon. While Rayan, the man still felt very emotional because of Caterine's attitude.

“Sister, isn't your brother papa?” Tanya Sechil looked at Rayan from the car glass.

Rayan smiled thinly. His heart was still very sick actually, but Rayan could not possibly say it bluntly to Sechil.

“Yes, I'm fine.” Reply Rayan.

Alana who understood her husband's feelings could only smile. Rayan could slickly cover what she felt.

“I'm sorry sis.” Sechil said slowly.

“Already, no need to apologize. Most importantly, you want to change. Brother is very happy. Thanks for telling sister.” Reply Rayan.

Alana took a breath. Being a Rayan is not easy.

Dianan hp belonging to Alana made Rayan glance at Alana. Alana smiled when she found Sari's contact name on her phone.

“Eem.. I'll pick up the phone first.” He said he looked at Rayan for a glance.

Rayan nodded slowly in response. They had not visited Sari for a long time. And maybe Sari feels really missed Alana who is very dear to her. So thought Rayan.

“Halo mom..” Alana smiled feeling very happy as soon as she heard her mother's voice. It made Rayan feel very envious of his own wife. Alana is very lucky to have Sari as her mother who loves Alana very much.

It was not until 10 minutes Alana stopped her phone because it happened that the three of them had arrived at the cafe where Ramon was waiting.

“Interested?” Ask Alana.

Sechil who was in the back seat just smiled. The cafe is a cafe that Ramon and himself used to visit while still dating. Although their relationship was only established for one week. The time is very short because of Sechil's own carelessness.

“Let's go down.” Invite Rayan who immediately got a nod of the agreed head from Sechil and Alana.

The three of them enter the cafe with Sechil who precedes. While Rayan and Alana, they stepped behind Sechil with their hands clutched together.

Ramon's hand-delivery made Sechil focus his attention as well as Rayan and Alana. The three of them immediately approached Ramon's desk in the corner of the crowded room.

“Sorry to make you wait a long time.” Sechil said he felt bad.

“Ngak papa's. What matters now is that you have come. Come sit..”

Ramon got up from his seat then pulled out a chair for Sechil. Ramon also grabbed Sechil's shoulders and led him to sit very gently.

Alana and Rayan who saw Ramon's gentle and caring attitude towards Sechil stared at each other and smiled. They both believe Sechil's decision to accept Ramon is correct.

After allowing Sechil to sit down, Ramon also invited Alana and Rayan to sit down. The man looked very bright in front of the three.

“How is your stomach?” Ramon's question made Sechil quiet. Sechil felt a little embarrassed because basically the child he was carrying was not the son of Ramon.

Alana who understood with Sechil's expression glanced at Rayan. Alana believes Rayan also saw Sechil's unusual accent.

Unable to get an answer from Sechil, Ramon seemed misbehaved. The man grimaced in embarrassment towards Rayan as well as Alana.

Rayan and Alana smiled again. Ramon can even be very concerned even though the fetus Sechil contains is not the seed he planted.

“Not what Ramon. Thank you for accepting my sister with all her flaws.” Reply Rayan with a smile that continues to be engraved on her lips.

“Master, there is no perfect human being in this world.”

While Sechil, he lowered his head. Sechil felt very embarrassed by what had happened. Her association was too free until she became pregnant, Sechil did not know who the man who impregnated her.

Ramon's big hand made Sechil flinch. Sechil looked at Ramon's hand as if he was convincing him that everything would be fine.

Ramon then raised his hand calling the waiter at the cafe. Ramon orders drinks for Sechil, Rayan, and Alana. Ramon even very attentively offers snacks for Sechil.

“So how is Ramon?” Rayan asked who was very impatient to know what Ramon wanted to talk to him as well as Alana.

Ramon was silent for a moment. The man seemed to be thinking of something he might want to say.

Ramon sighed then glanced at Sechil who was staring at him waiting for Ramon to say something to his brother.

“Look sir, I'm honest. I have nothing to offer Sechil later. Maybe our wedding will not be as festive as you thought. But I will try to make Sechil happy sir.”

Rayan smiled thinly. Ramon seems so groggy that his speech is very ambiguous and a little unconnected according to Rayan.

“I understand. I-i understand. What will you do after your wedding?”

Ramon looked at Sechil. His grip tightened on Sechil's hand. Ramon felt very confident about Rayan's question this time. Ramon believes his answer will not make Rayan change his mind like Caterine who forbade him from marrying Sechil.

“I will take Sechil wherever I go sir. I will make sure Sechil and the fetus he is carrying are safe with me.”

The smile at Rayan's lips instantly disappeared. Yang Rayan knows Ramon is just a regular citizen in the city where he lives. Both of his parents were vegetable farmers. His life is very simple. While Ramon himself lives in Jakarta by renting boarding houses and working odd jobs to be able to finance his own lectures. Rayan began to doubt. Sechil will definitely not be able to adjust to all the shortcomings of Ramon.

“Wouldn't you just stay at my house after getting married?”

Ramon laughed softly.

“Master, is not the duty of a husband to carry out the mandate of a wife and child to be guarded with all the power that the husband has? I want to be like that too, sir. Sir need not worry. Any job I will do in order to meet all the needs of Sechil and our future children later.”

Ramon's words made Sechil feel very bad. Ramon had even considered the fetus that Sechil was born with as his son.

“Ramon but..”

Rayan did not continue what she wanted to say when Alana's soft hand touched her. Rayan turned her head and found Alana who was smiling looking at him with a slow nod as if telling Rayan to just say yes to Ramon.

Rayan sighed softly. However worried about Rayan to Sechil, Rayan still have to be able to let go if indeed Ramon intends to bring Sechil after their marriage later.

“Alright if that is so. As long as you can really take good care of my sister.”

Ramon smiled broadly at Rayan's approval. Ramon quickly nodded his head in response to what Rayan had said.

“It's definitely sir. I will take care of Sechil with all my soul and body.”
