Not the Substitute Bride

Chapter 24's

"Seeing from your current condition, it seems that you will not return to the city of M. I feel very sad, " said Gusti who really felt sad.

"Many other women out there. Choose one of them and don't expect me" said Maheera, who he had asserted from the beginning.

"Is it because you love your ex-husband?" Tanya Gusti investigated.

"As for my feelings, it is enough that I and my Lord know. Don't expect me, mas." Once again Maheera asserted.

Gusti forced his smile, for some reason this woman's heart was so hard on his stance. In the end Gusti came home with a sense of disappointment.

Maheera let out a long sigh, he had not yet entered the house, Shaka's car had entered the yard of his house.

"Has he gone home?" Tanya Shaka was curious. "I saw the car." Shaka.

"You should have set a distance to meet me, ma'am. I don't want to see you too often." Maheera.

"You're still mad at me, Maheera. Why is your heart so hard to this extent?"

"Other than work, just discuss anything with me, mas." Maheera said as she walked in leaving Shaka outside.

Shaka takes a deep breath, after he sows salt on Maheera's wounds, now he must fight to get the love of Maheera.

Inevitably Shaka leaves from there, not knowing what he must show Maheera so that the woman is sure if Shaka can make her happy later.

Two days later, for the first time Maheera set foot into the papah's company. This towering building made Maheera suddenly laugh at herself.

"Why are you laughing, Maheera?" Shaka asked who was astonished.

"Look, it's so tall and big this building but my life has been so hard. Without me telling you, Shaka would know what I mean." Answer Maheera.

"It's all yours now" said Shaka.

"Come on, I'm dizzy. Where do I start all this work?" Ask Maheera who really does not know what to do.

"Mas will teach you to manage this company once you can, mas will let you work alone." This actual Shaka speech becomes an opportunity for Shaka to get close to Maheera. "Maheera, do you have any holiday aspirations?"

"Of course there was, I used to dream of freedom and now I get it."

"Do you want the same vacation?" Tawar Shaka made Maheera laugh. "Why laugh?" Ask Shaka.

"It could be a vacation with an ex-husband" said Maheera who felt funny.

Shaka could only smile faintly, for some reason there was a feeling that he could not explain right now.

"Take me as your brother" Shaka said with a breastplate.

Maheera only shrugged both of her shoulders.

"All right, we'll go on vacation later." Maheera.

"Mas go first for a while," said Shaka directly diyakan by Maheera.

Maheera looked at the back of the man who had made Maheera feel wrong.

"Actually you're a good man, mas. Sister Nara is very lucky to get a man like you. It's just that you're too sick to add a wound to my heart." Maheera said she felt sad again. "Why should I be sad? I should be happy now."

Not until ten minutes after Shaka left did this man return to Maheera's room. Teaching Maheera how the company works owned by Mr. Banu now to make Maheera feel dizzy.

"Banget!" Maheera replied briefly.

"Well, we'll take a lunch break." Shaka.

"We're leaving now, yes!" Take Maheera who wants to quickly fill her stomach.

Rushing them away, Shaka took Maheera to one of the restaurants not far from Mr. Banu's office.

"What did you order?" Shaka asked while turning over the menu book.

"Just like, my mom!" Answer Maheera.

As for Shaka, this man also ordered the same two lunch menus as well as his drinks.

"Gosh....!" A voice greeted Shaka.

"Emir, what a coincidence we met here." Said Shaka who was happy to see his friend.

"Would you like to eat or is it done?" Ask Emir.

"Oh, waiting for the order." Answer Shaka.

The Emir glanced at Maheera who had been silent since.

"Who? Boyfriend or wife?" Ask the curious Emir.

Shaka began to get confused as to what Maheera wanted to answer about.

"I'm his sister Mas Shaka," Maheera replied instantly making Shaka's heart ache.

The Emir frowned, as far as the Emir knew, this friend had no younger sister.

"Seriously sister?" The Emir asked in disbelief.

"Yes, we're brother and sister. I know, his name is Maheera." Shaka said introducing.

Maheera and Emir shook hands, and Maheera sat back down.

"Can I join you for lunch?" Emir's permission immediately sat opposite Maheera.

They also had lunch together, the humorous Emir more quickly familiar with Maheera. Of course this makes Shaka jealous to see him because the Emir can make Maheera laugh with his jokes.

What makes Shaka even more jealous is when the Emir and Maheera exchange mobile numbers right in front of Shaka.

After lunch, they returned to the office.

"The Emir is friends with Nara?" Ask the curious Maheera.

"Yes, it's just that the Emir moved schools out of town and went to college out of town." Answer Shaka.

"People are funny, they like to joke." Praise Maheera made Shaka speechless.

The car atmosphere became quiet.

"You praised the other man before me, your useless ex-husband." Shaka said in his heart.
