I'm Not Him

Vero asks the one he calls Dila and Yudi to come for the rehearsal of their wedding party to be held at Ruby's house. They gathered for lunch. Although actually Vero more often ask Dila break sitting on the sofa.


When everyone was talking, suddenly the footsteps of someone's shoes made them stop talking and look in the direction of the coming.


"Rania?" muttered Arumi who was sitting next to Vero.


They all stood up, except for Rania whom they still considered to be Dila. Everyone was shocked and did not expect this moment to happen.


As in a dream, Vero approached and rubbed his face and hugged her. His hope was granted, his two younger siblings were in front of him. Gathered together again when one of them was getting married.


"You're still alive?" said Vero.


As Arumi approached, he felt that their happiness would be complete after this.


But not with Yudi, he sat down and could only gape in disbelief with what he saw. What he was going to tell them, he had been together with the two of them. I loved them both at different times.


While Rania herself could only silently stare towards Vero, Arumi and the girl whose faces resembled hers.


Dila approached Rania then launched a slap so loud and echoed in the room.


Vero and Arumi were surprised and held back his hand that was about to hit again.


"What's this?" ask Vero.


Yudi stood holding onto Rania's shoulder so she wouldn't fall because of Dila's slap.


Dila looked at Yudi who treated her very gently.


"You're Rania! Is this what you want? You again so I take all my happiness"


Dila's voice was slow but strongly implied her anger.


Vero and Arumi stared at them alternately, they were confused by the situation before them.


"Yes, sister, he made you think that he was me and happy with his wedding plans with Yudi" Dila insisted Rania deliberately did it.


Without hearing Adit's explanation while on the way. She rushes away from Adit when she hears that Yudi will marry her the day after tomorrow. With anger, especially when seeing the wedding preparations have begun to be done in the garden of Ruby's house, Dila ran and punished Rania.


"No way deck, isn't he?" said Vero weakly.


"Why don't you believe me? Oh..kalo I'm the one who is he, then he says I'm evil, you're just gonna believe that?" Dila is getting mixed up.


Vero was very sure of the way he was angry, the person who had just come was Dila, then looked at the person who Yudi was hugging was Rania.


Arumi sat down and covered her mouth with both hands. Can't believe they've mistaken. Then he remembered Bondan's speech that gave Rania the characteristics. Arumi looked at Rania and Yudi who were already living together.


Arumi approached Yudi and looked at him. But Yudi who understood her sister was asking if she knew this or not, lowered her gaze.


Vero who still did not believe that they had switched places, looked at Dila and Rania alternately. Dila who just kept talking to Rania with her rude speech while Rania just blinked looked at Dila with a blank look.


Bu Vera, Bu Yuni, Adit witnessed all that. They didn't think this could happen either. They came after a few minutes of talking. Adit asks his mother and Bu Yuni to go to Ruby's house to see Rania.


Miss Vera, who expected everything, just left without saying anything. Bu Yuni also felt Vera was really Rania's mother now.


Dila could not bear the expression of Rania who just blinked her eyes. He slapped her again and shook Rania's body violently.


Rania was getting dizzy, she was already very trying to remember everything that happened. His vision grew dull, blurry and he fell. Rania was unconscious, everyone was panicking.


Yudi carried him to the room. Dila saw it with annoyance, was about to pull Yudi's hand to stop him from doing the thing he didn't like.


But Vero held him back, they left Dila with Arumi who also held Dila back to catch up.


Veri called the doctor, she was so panicked to see her sister fainting again. Whoever it is, Dila or Rania, he won't let it come back critical. Vero fended off Yudi's hand that was about to caress his face.


"Go!" said Vero.


Yudi lowered his head, he complied and walked out of the room leaving them. Yudi walked towards the living room and saw Dila who was listening to Arumi. He sat some distance away, feeling guilty and not knowing what to do.


"Listen to me, Rania was found dying near a hill. His head was leaking and had to be operated on. Since the doctor had already shaved his hair, we also did not know who was being operated on. Dila or Rania, you wear the same clothes" Arumi explained.


Dila was still indifferent as if unwilling to listen.


"Sultan Ameer called and apologized for the actions of Clara who managed to get Rania to be brought to Malaysia. But it did not work and instead their plane crashed in the waters of the Karimata strait. So everyone concluded that the one who died was Rania and the one who was being operated on was Dila. Due to an operation on the head, he lost most of his memory. Until now, he doesn't know who he is"


"Then you will marry the sick, then? Isn't marriage healthy physically and psychologically?" Dila simply rejected all the circumstances that existed.


Arumi became silent, she felt free to explain anything to Dila who was very angry.


"Are you not able to make a difference between me and Rania. Is that so stupid of you? Rania had a cut on her hand the scar she was injured in the market. I don't have" Dila was angry again.


"He was found dying, full of wounds, his head leaking. What do you think is on our minds when he's like that?" Bu Yuni yelled at him in annoyance.


Dila adjusted her breathing, she who was originally about to return Bu Yuni's shout became silent at his words. He remembers how Rania did not want herself to be Rania so as not to be taken by Clara.


"You fools!" muttered Dila.


Yudi and Arumi widened their eyes hearing Dila mutter. Bu Yuni was even upset and was about to come closer and grab her hair. But Ms. Vera held him back.


"We're not stupid, son, I know those eyes belong to Rania. But no one believed me for thinking I was too sad to accept the fact that Rania died on Clara's plane. Others must have felt it too. But all are denied by a deep sense of loss. We just try to focus, at least the person we consider Dila, congratulations and can still be with us" said Bu Vera.


Adit rubbed his mother's crying back. He also remembered the words of his mother who was very sure about it.
