SUBSTITUTE LOVE

chapter 20

After delivering bi Marni to the doctor for consultation on her illness, Andini and Bisma immediately returned home. Bi Marni had to take a complete break from her job because the complaints on her waist that spread to her spine got worse. Bi Marni has no family because she is not married. For years she had been a servant in the house of Bhishma and it made her forget to seek her love.

Bi Marni was like a mother to Bhishma, the person who always took care of her from childhood was always faithful to accompany the twins until they grew up. The kindness of Bhishma's parents makes her always feel sad if she has to leave Bhishma and her brother in the care of Bhishma's adoptive parents. Although Bhishma's adoptive mother is her mother's cousin, Marni cannot trust them completely. Marni's mother secretly becomes a spy to protect the twins in case something happens to them.

In the room bi Marni lay down, Andini enveloped bi Marni and sat next to her.

"Auntie should be rested completely, let me take care of the homework problem." Said Andini while holding the hand of bi Marni.

"But non, that's my job as ART in this house." Sahut bi Marni's.

"Sir Bhishma has also hired people to care for bi Marni. Bi Marni just needs a break and don't think about the housework problem."

"Please tell Mr. Bhishma of his kindness to aunt. Stay with Mr. Bhishma even though aunt knows this is hard for non-Dini. Aunty knows non Dini does not like lord Bhishma but auntie please do not leave him because only non Early family he has now. Aunt felt guilty for hiding this truth from her but it was all because aunt was afraid that Lord Bhishma would not be able to face this alone. Does non Dini not want to know why mister Bima married his sister to non Dini in a hurry?" Bi Marni said with clear droplets flowing from the corner of her eye.

"Why bi?" ask Andini.

"He wants you to always accompany Bhishma when she is in grief. Mr. Bima wants someone who is really sincere beside Bhishma when he is down with the situation. Non Dini looks very sincere and kind. The agreement was just an excuse for mistress Maryam to marry off Bhishma to a non-Dini. Because he was greedy, he did not want the wealth of the birth parents of Bhishma to fall to a new person and he was forced to agree to the marriage. This plan has long been compiled by Mr. Bima, he does not want his sister to live alone in this world. She didn't want Sarah to be with her sister because she had been watching Sarah for quite a while." Bi Marni.

"Thank you for saying I'm good bi, but me and Mr. Bhishma don't love each other. I don't know where this wedding is going. I'm afraid to say that we should split up because this marriage is not based on love bi."

"Auntie only asks one of you son, this time aunt advises you as a child not as an employer. Aunt please stay beside Lord Bhishma even if you want to separate but aunt believes you are a strong woman and can get through this. If you leave him, he will live a life in this world. Aunty can not continue to accompany Lord Bhishma because auntie feels the age of aunt will not be long."

"You must promise your aunt to remain beside Lord Bhishma. You want to promise?"

"What does it have to be?" Andini lowered her head. His heart was afraid that his decision would be wrong.

"Auntie can't live quietly if Lord Bhishma has to live alone again. Bhishma had suffered enough to lose her parents, now she lost her brother and it would be even more painful if she had to lose her non-Dini."

"Bi I'm not sure of my promise but as long as I can survive I'll stay beside Mr. Bhishma."

Bi Marni smiled as she stroked Andini's arm. "You're a good woman, go see your husband in the room. Don't worry about auntie because I'll live to see your child born into this world."

"What an aunt." Andini looks so embarrassed.

Andini came out of the room and let bi Marni rest. In her heart she sometimes feels sad with Bhishma but will she continue to live in lies by pretending to be happy with the man she does not love.

The goal is to come to the capital to change fate for the better but fate says something else. We can't change anything if it's our destiny, even if we try our best to change it and if it's not our destiny we'll all be the same.

Andini's longing for her distant family makes her sometimes want to give up on their marriage. In his young age so many dreams he wanted to achieve but that was his destiny that he had to live. Whatever you dream of never give up on destiny but keep trying until the fate that determines you will become what it will be.
