I'm Not Him

Vero bowed after hearing all of Dila. Arumi looked at her, she hesitated to approach and calm her husband. Arumi feels that Vero will blame Yudi again. Their relationship will be broken again.

He looked at Arumi who was staring directly at Vero but did not dare to approach him.

"Don't blame anyone else. We have to focus on Rania now" said Dila, who summed up what her sister was thinking.

Vero.

~When there is a point, I blame Yudi for free, I almost lost my loved ones because of this frustration. Yes, I have to focus on the people I love~ Vero said.

Vero's eyes turned to Arumi who was standing a bit away from him.

"Arumy! You awake yet? What was? What do you want?" ask Vero while approaching him.

Arumi is shocked by Vero's drastic change in attitude. He was a little scared, nervously accepting Vero's hand embrace that coiled to his waist.

"I...."

"Would you like to eat something?" ask Vero to interrupt.

Dila smiled to see that Vero was now treating Arumi as before, although Arumi was a little awkward because she was used to being ignored.

Vero accompanied Arumi to a meal at the dinner table. I went back to my room and cleaned myself up. While thinking about what can make Rania's mind stable to one memory and can make it easily healed.

Dila looked at herself in the mirror. Remembering the way Yudi touched Rania's stomach.

"Actually to whom do you feel you tethered? Me or my twin sister?" muttered Dila who questioned Yudi's feelings.

Bondan returns from Australia, he goes to his house and cleans up. Then he took the car he had left in one of his friends.

"Hi Bro!" greet Bondan to his friend.

"Hi, how's Bondan doing? You know, work in Ausi can be left, right?" ask Gery.

"Not really, just.I want to see someone again" replied Bondan while taking the car keys given by Gery.

"Rania?" gery guessed.

"Everyone knows" Bondan replied with a smile.

"Yes, but everyone knows about you guys whose stories are so complicated. Are you still able to be with her when she is pregnant with someone else's child" said Gery who stood near the car and looked at Bondan who was about to start his car.

Bondan was silent, his gaze blankly straight ahead. He sighed quite loudly after hearing the words of his friend. There is no denying that public opinion will appear in one's step if their life and thoughts are different from those of others.

"I also don't know why I can be so in love with Rania that no matter what the circumstances I can't help feeling like I want to be with her. People say 'think!, use your logic!' but the more I think, the more I use my logic, the more I miss it and I end up loving it even more" Bondan said.

Gery looks at his best friend's face, he can only pat Bondan on the shoulder and pray for him.

"Ok, okay. Hope you get what you expect" Gery said.

Bondan looks at Gery and smiles in gratitude.

"I'm leaving!" pamit Bondan's.

He went straight to Rania's house, even though it was already 11 p.m. He walked in the alley and saw some young people gathered singing with the tone of a guitar. Bondan walks with a slight bow, mimicking what Rania has always done. He said it makes anyone we pass feel appreciated.

Her steps started slowly as she stared at the door of Rania's house tightly closed. The lights have been extinguished, as well as the house of Mr. Nurdin.

Bondan stood up to imagine when Rania came out of her house in clothes that were ready to spend the night with her.

Bondan's eyes were always staring at him with amazement, especially whenever Rania smiled at him. Welcoming him who came to pick her up.

Before long, a man patted Bondan on the shoulder, breaking his daydream.

"Bondie!" greet Pak Nurdin who just closed the shop.

"Babe! Just home?" Bondan was quite surprised, because he thought everyone was asleep.

"From Australia straight here?" ask Mr. Nurdin.

"No Be, go home and take a shower" Bondan replied with a smile and scratched his shoulder.

Mr. Nurdin smiled. He's happy Bondan hasn't changed, he loves Rania. Keep coming at night to check if Rania has slept or not.

"Yu, go to Babe's house, Rania must have rested, she just went home to see a doctor" said Mr. Nurdin while taking Bondan into his house.

Bu Yuni came out of her room when she heard her husband speak. He looked at Bondan with sparkling eyes.

"Eh, there's Bondan. Hurry home? Work in Australia can be left?" greet Bu Yuni while receiving Bondan's embrace as her greeting.

"It could be a minute, I'm only three days in Jakarta!" answer Bondan.

"Oh, yes, I have. You make coffee, right?" Bu Yuni went to the kitchen.

Mr. Nurdin returned to the living room after changing clothes from his room. He was sitting in a chair far away from Bondan.

"Rania check the contents? Everything's okay, isn't it Be? " ask Bondan.

Pak Nurdin's facial expression changed, so he looked gloomy every time he remembered what happened to Rania.

"What's up Be? Is there a problem with Rania's content?" Bondan guessed and asked.

"No, he said the baby was healthy" Pak Nurdin replied by squeezing his own hands together.

Bondan noticed Mr. Nurdin's attitude and understood there was something they were worried about.

"Is there a problem with Rania? What are the side effects of surgery on his head?" ask Bondan again.

Mr. Nurdin looked at Bondan with his eyes round.

"True yes, maybe this is what Dila means" said Mr. Nurdin as if discussing with himself.

"Yes, Dila rushed Rania to the hospital, because Rania's behavior was briefly like an adult, briefly like a child. Sometimes talking about the work until the future plan with the store. Sometimes just talking about you. Dila said, his attitude is like a person with a syndrome what it is, mother does not understand" explained Bu Yuni.

He put a cup of coffee on the table in front of Bondan who was listening to him.

"Doctor Cintya once got a call from Doctor Marcel. I know from her, she told me to come here to help Rania" Bondan explained.

"Oh yes, the doctor who helped Rania overcome the trauma after the incident" Mr. Nurdin recalled.

Bondan.

"It's not wrong we believe you can accompany Rania. You always know better than us who even live with him" said Pak Nurdin.

"If allowed, I would very much like to marry Rania. But, these few months it seemed like everyone was too shocked by everything that happened. So did I Be, it's like lightning snatching in broad daylight. Everyone never knows what will happen tomorrow. But still, my intention to marry Rania never faded in the least" said Bondan.

Ms. Vera, who had been standing in the doorway, looked at Bondan with tears. Earlier he came out of his house because he heard the voice of Nurdin who came home and was about to ask tomorrow to prepare an order.

Mr. Nurdin looked at Bu Vera, Bondan also turned his head when he saw Mr. Nurdin. Bondan stands up to welcome Rania's foster mother.

"Mother!" greet Bondan.

Vera rubbed the back of Bondan who had always called him in such a tone since the first meeting, never changing.

Vera smiled and sat down near Bondan who invited her to sit down.

"Who's train coming, it's Bondan's son" said Vera.

Vera spoke no more, she simply wiped her tears that were endlessly flowing considering all the words Bondan was willing to accept and would always accept Rania as his wife.

Bondan and Yuni also Nurdin could only duck, waiting for Vera to calm herself down.
