Not the Substitute Bride

Not the Substitute Bride
Chapter 05's



One week after Kinara's departure, the house seemed quiet and silent because Diana preferred to lock herself in the room.


Breakfast was so quiet, there was only Mr. Banu, Diana and Shaka who had been staying in this house for one week. Maheera never ate at home because Diana never allowed it.


"Mah, pah...!" Call Shaka who appreciates Mr. Banu and Diana. "Finished breakfast I have to go back to my house." Said telling.


"Bring all those fucking friends" said Diana flatly.


"I couldn't have brought Maheera, I never loved Maheera." Reject Shaka while removing the spoon and fork from his hand.


"Maheera is your wife now, if you don't want her, just divorce her!" Diana said so rudely.


"Well, you can't say that." Reproof sir Banu.


"I never wanted Maheera. You know for yourself that I married Maheera just because of Kinara's trust and I can't divorce Maheera."


"As much as you want to do him, the important thing is that you bring that unlucky kid. You want to make a maid or whatever!"


"Don't do it Shaka," pinta pak Banu pleaded. "Maheera our son too, please don't hurt him."


Maheera who heard the conversation at the dining table could only stroke her chest withstanding the overwhelming sense of tightness. Let alone her husband, her parents never wanted Maheera.


"What mistake did I make until I felt this much pain, Lord?" Maheera screams in the heart.


Maheera took a deep breath, deliberately to give the air in the chest that was so tight.


After breakfast, Shaka, who was preparing to return home, was waiting for Maheera to pack her clothes.


They say goodbye to go, did not want Diana to turn to Maheera even he had forbidden Maheera's foot into this house.


There was no talk all the way to Shaka's house. About fifteen minutes of travel, they finally arrived at the luxury house Shaka who he just bought a few months ago.


"This house should belong to Kinara now, but instead you're the one who lives here." Shaka sounded disappointed.


"I'm sorry mas, if Mas Shaka doesn't like me to stay in this house, I can find a contract."


Shaka snorted annoyedly at Maheera's words.


"One thing you need to remember, we get married just through trust. Never expect anything from me including a living. I'm not going to support you, everything I have, only Kinara's." Shaka really hurt Maheera.


"I never expected a living from you, ma'am. I'm self-conscious about our current situation."


"You should only sleep in the maid's room because the room in this house only belonged to Kinara. A woman like you doesn't deserve to be queen in this house."


Kinara took a slow breath, the more her heart ached when she heard Shaka's heart-wrenching words.


"Basic fucking carrier!" Shaka then just passed by.


Maheera just kept quiet as she closed her eyes holding back the tears that were about to fall. Everyone considers him a pesky carrier, whether until when the title he will hold.


In a house this big there was no maid, Shaka was intentional because this man only wanted to avenge the pain in his heart over Kinara's departure on Maheera who knew nothing.


Long story short, a month later. Maheera's life goes on as usual, working in a restaurant to support herself because until now Shaka had never given her a living money. In fact, the two of them rarely met even though there was only one roof.


"Hi....!" Call Shaka to Maheera.


With doubt Maheera approached her husband. There were not many voices, even though they did not love each other, but still Maheera felt hurt when she saw her husband holding another woman.


"Darling, what message do you want?" Shaka asks the woman who keeps clinging to Shaka.


"What's important is good!" Answer the woman.


Shaka turned to Maheera with a slanted smile.


"Serve the most delicious food in this restaurant." Shaka's word was written by Maheera.


With all his strength Maheera walked towards the kitchen, holding back the taste in the chest that he could not express.


"Is Shaka forgetting Nara's brother so soon?" The disappointed Maheera.


Shaka, this man deliberately brought another woman to eat at the restaurant just to make Maheera feel tormented.


Being so friendly with other women in front of his wife. Really, Shaka is a man who has no heart. And so on, almost every day Shaka invites a woman named Elina.


"You....!!" Shaka held back Maheera who had just entered the house.


"What's wrong?" Ask Maheera.


"Never go through the main door because you don't deserve to go through there. You fucking carrier!"


"If you ask me not to enter through the main door, I accept. But, please don't hurt my feelings with your words." Sahut Maheera with teary eyes.


"You're the unlucky bearer, because you're Kinara dead!"


"Sir Nara died because she hid her illness, not because of me!" Maheera answered against.


"You yourself hate your family, which means you're a fucking carrier. Low-level, uneducated women. Why don't you just die, Maheera?"


Maheera's tears immediately flowed upon hearing Shaka's words.


"If it wasn't for Kinara's trust, wouldn't I have seen your ugly face."


"Don't like me, no problem. But please don't insult me, mas. You don't know what kind of money pain I've been feeling all this time."


"Look....!!" Shaka throws spit right in front of Maheera. "You act like you're hurting the most, but in this story you're guilty." Shaka said then just passed by.


Eagerly wanting Maheera to give up on this life, no one cared for her even her parents hated Maheera so much.


"Be careful, how do you know tomorrow there's a happy pinch for me." Said Maheera who always strengthened herself.


Tears rolled back, Maheera missed Kinara as well as Shaka, who was crying, holding back the longing for Kinara.


"You're disavowing, Kinara. Why did you leave me so soon?" Shaka sobbed while hugging Kinara's photo.


The ideal of a happy household has run aground in the robbers of the universe. Shaka hates Maheera more and more whenever he imagines the face of Kinara, the woman he loves the most.
