Substitute Love (Married Candidate Sister-in-law)

Hard to Accept

The atmosphere was silent, Alzam waited for his mother to open her voice. I don't know what he wants to say.

Maya looked at her son seriously. He took a deep breath.

"Papa Nemuin Mama. He talked about Qian, and ... That's not the point. He talked about you. You have done a check on your fertility. And you are declared ... Hard to ...," said Maya who immediately made Alzam choked and held his breath for a moment.

"Why, Alzam? Why don't you ever tell Mama about something important like this? Why are you hiding this fact from Mama?" exciting Maya.

"Color ... I'm afraid Mama will be hard to accept the reality. My mom always demands I be perfect. I'm afraid Mama is disappointed. I'm afraid Mama is angry" Alzam said.

"Yes! My mom is disappointed with you. You can't open up to Mama. You better cover everything and ... Is this why you're rejecting all the women you've introduced?" Alzam did not answer him, he was silent for a moment. His breathing prepared himself for an answer.

"Mama always demands we're perfect. How can I tell my shortcomings. Would you like to hear it or accept it? Like Qian? Will Mama treat me like Qian? Is Mama gonna throw me out like her?" cynical Alzam for the first time he was so brave to his mother. Maya was fixated, she never knew if her attitude had been very burdensome for her children.

"Already, Mah. I can't count on Mama. Now Mama knows, right?" Alzam got up and left his mother just like that in the living room.

"Alzam! Mama's not done talking yet" Maya calls Alzam who keeps stepping away. Maya rubbed her face and brushed her hair with a huff. Everything seems chaotic now.

Qian who married young. Alzam seemed to be deadlocked by the path of his life. And he himself was still slumped in old wounds.

"All messy!" lirih Maya began to cry in her position with a clear circle that began to drip from the corner of her eyes. For the first time it seemed like he had to admit his defeat this time around.

That morning at exactly 7 a.m. Qian and Reo had already reached their offices in the super luxurious skyscraper.

The multi-storey buildings they rented as where they started their company.

Are they satisfied with this achievement?

Nah!

In reality Qian was unceasingly doomed to this. Because every day they will always be one elevator with the Channel, Dior or other expensive brands of successful people who cross paths with them in the elevator.

It made Qian and Reo feel like losers at the moment, when faced with that haughty face. Success with guaranteed income, expensive vehicles that are seen in the parking lot, and in addition to expensive taxido stelan it often looks down on them and cynical like today.

"Bisma Pinter's camp is really looking for a place to work! It's not mental first!" rutuk Qian dressed in irony early in the morning with the corner of her eyes was upset to glance at Bisma while leaning on the wall of the elevator which happened to be in the elevator now only the three of them live.

"Lo know why he chose the workplace here and kept waiting for the 23rd floor to be empty?" ask Reo.

"Look. There's a bust on the 22nd floor. He's the one who wants to date, we're the one who's making the inner pressure here," Qian said still sounding annoyed. With Bhishma who was just silent to hear the ravings of his best friend every time they took the elevator.

"Hmmm... Here dude. If the rent of another building is more humane than the elite building owned by my successful family. Then we will spend about tens or even hundreds of millions just for the building. Well lucky my friend, I have a brilliant idea to rent it here. Yes, at the risk of being looked at every day. Steady lah. Your friend is also trying to get a beautiful angel from the 22nd floor," said Bisma who made Qian and Reo even more upset with her annoying poetic style.

Qian looked at Reo. And Reo understood Qian's gaze. He nodded as a code. Bhishma is aware that danger is lurking at this time. He was also preparing to shuffle to the front of the elevator door that would soon open

And...

Just as the elevator door opened, Bisma immediately took a thousand steps to escape to the 22nd floor. Bhishma turned out to be much more poultice with the plans of his friends who always work on him if he acted.

"Damn. He's running away," said Qian.

They can't possibly chase Bisma there. Because they can't enter other people's workplaces for no apparent reason. Except for Bisma who is the son of the owner of the building that is already known here. He could just as casually go in and fro as he pleased.

"That's it. Let her have fun first. We'll make him cry. You remember, today he's coming!" qian said meaningfully and greeted tos and loud laughter both.

***

When they got to their room. They were surprised by someone who was ready at work.

"No, he's diligent. Early in the morning," whispered Reo.

"He was intent on working. Not like the shucks," replied Qian.

For a moment Rendi noticed the arrival of Qian and Reo. He smiled and greeted both of them.

"Hey! You guys just came?" greet Rendi friendly.

"Yes. How did it finish?" qian asked as she approached Rendi. Rendi showed the results of his work on a computer screen in front of him. Qian smiled satisfied with the results of Rendi's work.

"good. Done, yes. This afternoon we hand over to the client," Qian said before leaving.

Rendi is their new employee who they just recruited a few days ago, precisely when Bhishma was out of town because of an affair.

Secretly they deliberately recruited this arch-enemy of Bisma to cooperate with them, because they were annoyed at being lied to by Bhishma. Bhishma chose their workplace because it had another purpose to approach a woman he was expecting.

"This is a fitting payment for Bhishma" Qian whispered to Reo. Reo just laughed hearing that.

Not long did the bisma come. He smiled all the way to his study. He was satisfied to have met his beloved this morning. It was enough to make him back excited to start his day like a phone that just finished in the charger.

She smiled seductively at Qian and Reo who seemed to be getting busy with their work.

"It's very disturbing atu camp. Work, woy!" exclaimed Reo as the Bhishma who suddenly hugged her with a sumringah face.

"Yes, I just from heaven met the angel so still sawan," he said with a strange smile that was unceasingly made Reo uncomfortable because he was in the embrace of Bhishma.

For a moment the eyes of Bhishma were fixed on one figure.

"Who is that? New employee? How many employees did you recruit?" bisma asked seriously.

"Just started work 6, we're still selecting again. That's our new photographer. Acquaintance, gih. You must like it" Reo said with a meaningful smile.

Bisma narrowed her eyes looking at Reo suspiciously. Qian was already too focused on her work. He only noticed the behavior of his two friends.

"Heh new boy. What's lo's name?!" exclaiming Bisma who suddenly made the one in sahuti also turned his head. Which instantly made Bisma open her mouth in disbelief. This is a figure that he continues to curse since time immemorial and he very much avoids because of revenge.

He looked at Reo who was smiling towards Bhishma.

"Who, gih. You guys haven't seen each other in a long time" Reo said nosily.

Bisma without a word again went straight from there which made Reo panic as well as Rendi who already knew the reason for Bhishma's irritation to him.
