The Desired Substitute

THEY KNOW

"Is it love?" diana asked with curiosity.

He exhaled his breath slowly. "Gue doesn't know Di. But, when Ma'am April said that she was pregnant with Mas Juna's child, my heart felt very sick, there was a sense of unwillingness if Mas Juna would return to Mbak April." Raya took a breath for a moment then let out through her mouth slowly. "So from that, last night I gave her something precious."

"About right, if that's Juna's son?"

Raya shook. "Gue himself was also confused Di. Mas Juna couldn't have done that, but April's sister couldn't have lied either."

Raya covered her face with both palms. He doesn't know who to believe. He should have refused when asked by his mother to replace his brother to marry his future sister-in-law, so as not to get caught up in this kind of anxiety.

However, if he refuses, it will not embarrass his family because the party that has been planned must be canceled because his daughter ran away. Guests and elders have come to witness the marriage contract that should be April as the bride.

Raya does not want to make her parents, especially her parents, have to be sad because they bear the shame.

Diana leaned slightly on Raya. "If for example the child that April was born is really a child Juna how?" diana asked curiously.

"Yes .. maybe I'm the same Mas Juna had to split up. Because it is not possible if Mas Juna has two wives who are sister."

"Maybe I think so," said Diana then he took a yellow cold drink in front of him and drank it.

"But I don't want to," said Raya quickly. Raya also took his drink and drank it.

They are now in a cafe not far from Juna's office. Raya asked to meet her best friend because she felt like sharing and letting out what she felt.

Juna asked Raya to bring lunch to his office. Raya also complies with Juna's request, although she is actually awkward if she has to come to her husband's office. Especially there are many photos of her brother scattered everywhere, because indeed her brother is a brand ambassador of shoe products made by the company Juna.

When she arrived at Juna's office, Raya headed straight to her husband's room, but apparently Juna was having lunch with some people who might be her business partner, and Raya also saw April was there. Because he did not want to disturb Raya finally chose to go home and leave it to Juna's secretary with lunch that he had prepared.

"Yes that's up to you si. That means that you will be a widow and not a widow of flowers" said Diana and then laughed widely.

"Damn." Raya throws her used straw at her best friend who still laughs at her.

"Well, that's exactly what I said. But the broad widow again rose Ray's leaves, many were nyari. I'm sorry, I'm the widow."

Raya grunts annoyed at the teasing of her best friend.

"How is it, Ma'am, if it's Juna's son?" ask Mira to Risma. Mira submitted the results of the April test pack this morning and also submitted some photos of Juna sleeping together with April, which she got from April of course.

The two middle-aged women who have a relationship as besan, are now sitting in a chair in the garden behind Juna's parents' house.

Mira who is the mother of April comes to Risma, after she gets the fact that April is pregnant with Juna's child.

It's been three days, every April morning always vomiting. Not a single piece of food could enter his stomach. Mira eventually calls a doctor to check on her son, as she worries that he will be hospitalized again, just as April had just returned from Paris.

After being examined, it turns out that the doctor suggested to be examined to the gynecologist because he suspected that April was not sick, only experiencing morning sickness symptoms. Of course, after hearing the doctors who examined her child, Mira was struck by lightning in broad daylight, how could her child be pregnant before marriage.

April came out of the bathroom, then handed a flat object that became a pregnancy test on the mother.

"What's the outcome?" asked the mother in April who looked down and remained silent.

Mira saw the results herself. Instantly her shoulders shook with tears as she looked at the two red lines on the test pack that April gave. One hand was brought over to cover her mouth, which still could not believe that her child was pregnant.

April approached her mother and hugged her. "Sorry April Mother. April has often disappointed Mother and Father," he said while sobbing.

"Who?" mama Mira asked quietly, barely audible.

Mira's body immediately squeezed, she fell on the floor sobbing. How could Juna impregnate April. What he had to do, both were his children he could not take his son's happiness for the other child.

"I've called Juna to get here. We wait until Juna comes," said Risma who disperse the reverie Mira.

Mira nodded then massaged her temple slowly.

"Do you know already?" risma asked, then answered the head by Mira.

They both let out their breaths slowly.

"Where is April? why don't you come here?"

"April is having a photo shoot. He was the one who brought me here, but went straight back to the photo shoot."

"What won't be okay? He said he was vomiting this morning."

"Mual is equally vomit only in the morning. When viewed from the date shown in the photo, the content of April has at least entered the age of three months huh?"

Risma nodded. "But why is the nausea vomiting new now?" risma said in her heart.

"Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumsalam," the two middle-aged women replied compactly.

"Well, there's Mother, has Mother been here long?" juna asked while kissing the hands of the two women he respected.

Mira smiles. "Not for long, yet" he replied gently.

"What's that bring? risma asked her son who seemed to carry a tentengan.

"Oh, here's lunch. It was anterin Kingdom to the office but Juna had eaten with the client, so Juna just brought it here, make the second round."

"Yes spent your supplies first," said Risma to her son.

"What does Mom want to say to Juna?"

"Recycle your supplies first."

Juna immediately obeyed what his mother said. If the mother is very talkative, there is usually something serious. Quickly, since entering the house, Juna had felt a different aura. More frightening than mystical.

After finishing her provisions, Juna met her mother and in-law in the backyard. He sat down before the two women who were waiting for him. Juna took the orange that was located on the table, then peeled it.

"Are you really impregnating April Juna?" ask Risma who made Juna choke as she was about to swallow the orange she just chewed.
