Love of a Substitute

Lunch together

Kayla could not hide her happy red face this morning, how her husband's attitude and treatment were so sweet.

The happiness of her birthday is not there, at the break Kayla can not hide her surprise when she got a surprise birthday cake from her classmates.

What makes him surprised instead of playing is the presence of Zian, for some reason lately the campus BEM chairman likes to visit his younger sister Kayla.

"Happy reckless birthday, Kayla" said Zian with a bouquet of white lily flowers in her hand, the sweet smile from the handsome face of the college idol breaking her mind today.

Kayla keeps her mouth shut when Zian turns out to have been there since then but hides behind her classmates.

Nervous as well as awkward Kayla received the bouquet of flowers with a shy face, she was never treated by a man like this during her time in college, if the birthday surprise from friends and classmates is never absent every year but this time is different when Zian sidekicks it with a special bouquet of flowers.

Kayla was suddenly awkward, she looked at her two best friends who were also surprised by it.

"Thank you, Brother Zian," said Kayla after a long period of confusion herself, she received the bouquet.

"Well, I've heard a word that a man's wife is more seductive than a single girl" Rania whispered to Susan.

Susan looked at Rania sharply, "Silence later someone heard, besides I was also surprised why Brother Zian approached Kayla just now, all this time anywhere. Kayla has just married, seriously," said Susan again whispering in Rania's ear.

Then they looked at each other before laughing.

"Isn't this good, let that impotent Bang Dev know the taste of having ignored Kayla all along! Does he think Kayla doesn't sell" Sahut Rania.

Seeing them whisper made Kayla stare at them intently as if asking for help. Instead of helping, even Rania increasingly cheered with excitement while teasing Zian who was too sweet as a man who was not a coward in approaching women.

It was supported by Susan when they saw Dev was willing to go into their class to teach.

"Oh sorry, am I interrupting your fun?" dev's voice sounded cold when he entered the class his wife intended to teach and instead found all the contents of the class was excited there was a birthday party.

All speechless, Kayla becomes awkward and nervous on her own when faced with Dev where Zian is also next to her.

"Sorry sir, today is our friend Kayla's birthday" said one of the girl's classmates.

"But this is already in my lecture hours" replied Dev sharply but his eyes were on the face of the wife who was looking down in fear.

"Well, sorry the timing wasn't right. I'll wait for you to come home from college, I'll take you somewhere, learn the good Kayla is careless," Zian said to Kayla as she rubbed her hair in a fit of anxiety.

The girl could only shame when she got another temptation from her friends.

"Excuse me Mr. Dev" said Zian saying goodbye to the lecturer who was in front of the class. The atmosphere became quiet after the students returned to their seats.

Dev simply nodded without answering Zian. Then her eyes turned again to Kayla who put a bouquet of flowers on top of her bag.

"It seems your husband is jealous" Rania whispered to Kayla.

Kayla nodded her head, "That means she could have fallen in love with you too but the prestige admits, just look at her red face when she sees Brother Zian is also here" Susan said.

Kayla recalled the scene this morning, that kiss was making her brain dead end now, she is happy that Dev looks jealous but is also afraid of what if her husband is angry and thinks he is a cheap girl who has married but still wants to be with other men.

Kayla's face was suddenly gloomy, she followed the lesson with a thought that was out of nowhere. He is also confused why Zian can give him flowers when they are not too close.

During the teaching Dev relentlessly looked towards his wife who looked more pensive than focused. Making him more upset, he ended the lesson before the end of college hours, the man just left the class after telling him there was a sudden business until the lecture had to end prematurely.

"Is Bang Dev angry with me?" kayla murmured inwardly, for some reason she became agitated herself.

After getting more excitement about the birthday of her friend, Kayla decided to skip the last lecture hour, she with Susan and Rania went home to Mama Hana's house to celebrate a meal together as promised yesterday.

"Kayla, is that Bang Dev's car?" susan asked in wonder when her car had just stopped and reached the yard of her best friend's house.

"Yes, I'm confused too. Is Bang Dev here?" kayla said no less astonished.

"I'm just telling you if we're going to have lunch at Mama's house, but don't dare to invite her either, where she might want to." Kayla answered while exiting Susan's car.

"This is proof that Bang Dev's car is here" Susan said after noticing the lecturer's car.

"I'm also confused, let's go in first!"

Rania and Susan just nodded. Sure enough when they entered were greeted by Mama Hana and Dev who were also there.

"Bang Dev?" kayla muttered in wonder.

"Can't I join?" cetus Dev with a meaningful look.

"Son Dev came here with a lot of food, let's get you hungry!" take Mama Hana to pull her daughter's arm to the dinner table.

Susan and Rania become awkward and don't dare to fuss because they are afraid of Dev. Kayla nodded, she placed her bag on the ornamental table, Dev glanced at it and came back irritated when the flower from Zian this morning was also in Kayla's bag.

As usual Rania and Susan frenzied with her mother Kayla, they have been close for a long time, only Dev and Kayla who did not talk much at a time when everyone was happy about the simple birthday celebration.

Rania and Susan accidentally give Kayla and Dev space to talk, they help Mama Hana berberes in the kitchen after the banquet.

Kayla approaches Dev in the living room, busy with her cell phone.

"Bang Dev," call Kayla.

The man turned his head, he kept his phone in his pants pocket.

"Yes?"

"Why didn't you tell me you wanted to come here too?"

"Do I have permission if I want to visit my in-laws' house?"

Kayla blushed hearing the words in-law from the lips of her dream man.

"Are you jealous of Brother Zian to follow me here? Do you suspect that I brought another man here?" seductive Kayla with a happy smiling face.

Dev looked at Kayla with anxiety, the girl really made her mood go up and down.

The man just clucked, "No. I'm not jealous at all."

Kayla murmured, "It's still prestige, you're jealous I know it!"

They argue until they look romantic. Seeing them Mama Hana shed tears.

"Why is Aunt crying? Don't you like them falling in love with each other?" susan asked astonished, they again sat at the dining table where the view of the living room was clearly visible because the house was not large.

"How Kayla deserves to be rich, you know that. Auntie did not dare to rebuke, Kayla looked very fond of Nak Dev. Aunty was just afraid that all ended up disappointed, the marriage was just a formality, Kayla was not the daughter-in-law of choice, she was just paid for it."

"But love can change it Bi, Kayla and Bang Dev are so compatible just look at their closeness is not made up as in the agreement, they like each other I'm sure of it, even though Bang Dev does not want to admit it," said Rania while rubbing Mama Hana's hand.

"How my daughter got into the Governor's family, Kayla doesn't deserve it at all, Mrs Lolita has stressed that Kayla was only a temporary surrogate before her divorce so that no one would suspect that yesterday's marriage had actually failed because her bride was missing."

"I also think so Bi, but Kayla and Bang Dev deserve to be happy even though starting from a contract, they are legally married is not a lie. I support their closeness, after all Nika has run away somewhere, not worth this marriage is considered a game" said Susan.

"I agree with Susan, Auntie don't worry about Kayla, she's a strong girl. She was good at taking her husband's heart, just look at Bang Dev starting to go crazy over him," Rania said excitedly.

Mama Hana looked at her two daughter's friends with pride, Rania and Susan were sincerely friends with her child who was not from among the group, in her small heart she also wanted Kayla to be happy, if he could, he would not want his son to be a widow.
