The Desired Substitute

HOMECOMING

It does not feel the age of the marriage with Juna has entered the second month. Their days passed in full color. Not full of color actually, rather full of quarrels. However, it is worth knowing. Their quarrel is not a quarrel like a married couple in general like a wife grumbling because the husband comes home late or the spending money is reduced, the husband is angry because the wife does not make food for him because of the preoccupation of playing mobile phone. Or the wife who suddenly tense up because the husband put a wet towel on the mattress, or also the wife becomes very chatty because the husband takes clothes in the closet is not neat.

Actually, their quarrel did not lead to KDRT or divorce because one of them cheated. They may also get divorced after April returns. Maybe you are. Their quarrel was actually trivial. Like Juna who forced Raya down from the God's motorbike and then carried her to get into his car, or Raya who is often upset and nagged because of the puckishness of Juna who sometimes suddenly has stuck next to him while Raya sleeps.

And keep in mind that their quarrel over the last triangular rag never happened again. Because Raya is already with legowo and without being asked, sincerely wash all clothes belonging to the husband without choosing.

Now in Juna's unit not only the two of them who live there. Now increasing one more person who is none other than a domestic assistant at Risma's house, Nina. Risma asks Nina to stay in Juna's unit so she can help and also accompany Raya.

So it can be guessed right, if now Juna with Raya sleeps one room, because the unit occupied by Juna only has two rooms. Nina was now the one who kept the room of the former Kingdom. Although they sleep in one room and one bed, they still keep their distance. One of them sleeps with bolsters as a barrier between the two.

Today Juna has departed before dawn because he will be outside service to Sukabumi to follow some training and also visit his subsidiary.

Raya today did not come to the depot because the sister-in-law named Sekar Anjani wanted to visit and not allow Raya to go anywhere.

"Non Raya wants to prepare lunch now?" nina asked because the time had already shown the lunch hour had even passed.

"Later on, wait for Jani to come. Sister Nina if you want to eat first is nothing."

"Later on, you're still full."

"Mother Nina has nothing to do, right? here Ma'am, accompany Raya to watch," invite Raya to the housekeeper.

"No Non, but around three o'clock will iron the clothes, but wait for the clothes to dry first."

"She's here to watch and talk."

Nina approached Raya who was sitting on the sofa, she chose to sit on the furry carpet near Raya sitting.

"Ngapain sits under Ma'am. Here sit beside Raya."

"Here aja Non, let it be selonjoran," reject it subtly while grinning.

Before long, the doorbell sounded. "It looks like Non Jani has arrived. Let Mbak open the door first," Nina said then walked to the door to open it.

"Assynolajet. Uh, there's Sister Nina. How are you, Mama?"

"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Thank goodness Non. Please come in."

Jani goes into the unit belonging to her only brother. He went straight to where Raya was sitting.

"Assalamualaikum Sister-in-law."

"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Bring what?"

"Oh, this is Mamah just having lunch, he said. Sister Nina, please prepare." Jani then handed her lunch bag to Nina.

"Ngapain bring stock. Here also cook."

"Mamah made rendang the same as sambal squid. Mamah said sambel cuminya for sometime can."

"Want lunch now?" tanya Raya's.

Jani then sat down beside Raya. "Later on, Ms. Nina is also still ready."

"Where is college going?" tanya Raya's.

"Alhamdulillah smoothly. Oh yea. In two weeks I am the same FMI troops want to peak at Mount Papandayan. Wanna come along? He said he wanted to feel like a mountain boy."

"Pengen. But look at how it is."

"Ah how the hell. Take Mas Juna. So if you're tired of asking her to carry him."

"Cieee, is kasian doang?" ledek Jani's.

Raya can only smile when mocked by her sister-in-law.

"Mas Juna to Sukabumi again?"

"Yes. Why kangen?" tanya Raya's. "Later night is usually 11 nyampe here. If you want to meet nginep."

"Relieve it! what exists if I meet Mas Juna it always fight.

"His lunch is ready."

They ended up having a threesome lunch with Raya and Jani eating in the dining room, while Nina ate at the kitchen table. He said he was happy to eat with a table. Though Raya often invites him to eat together at the dining table but Nina always refuses subtly. Likewise while still at Juna's parents' house. Nina never wanted to come to eat one table with the host, let alone sit back and chat in the family room. Nina is a bit shy.

Just finished lunch a little late. Raya gets a call from her mother who tells her that April is at home recently until delivered by Juna. The mother said April was allowed to go home for a month due to illness. Now Raya is asked to come home.

"Truly come home from illness?" asked Jani after getting information from Raya.

"Mother said so."

"So then why is Mas Juna there?" asked Jani who seemed to suspect her brother.

"Later you ask directly to the same person. I went to my mother's house first. You wanna come or what?"

"I went straight home Ray. Want to tell Mamah that her former future daughter-in-law has come home and been picked up by her son."

Raya knew the annoyance Jani felt. Let alone Jani, Raya herself was not out of thought. Wasn't Juna last morning saying goodbye to going to Sukabumi because of office business. Why is it now in the house of Raya's parents and Irma said April came along with Juna.

Raya went to her parents' house with her sister-in-law.

"Please shake the head of Mas Juna ya Ray," said Jani when the car he was driving had stopped in front of the gate of the house of Raya's parents. Responded with laughter. "Why do you want to go to Mas Juna?" tanya Raya who was still chuckling.

"Just get it, just be aware," he replied.

"Yes, I entered. Careful, don't speed."

"May you order something?" ask Jani. Raya nodded. "Can, what is it?"

"Never let go of Mas Juna Ray" he said with his own eyes.

Raya smiled bitterly. I don't know what to answer. Is he entitled and worthy to maintain a marriage which he himself here only as a substitute bride.
