The Destiny of Love The Substitute Bride

Almeer's Suffering

"Assynogaic"

"Vaalaikumsalam. Sit down" replied Almeer.

Finally after 15 minutes Almeer waited for Nadira, Ali, Elmeer, Zafira, Altahf, Kiya and also Arthur. They came too. Last night Almeer chatted with them to come to La Tahzan Cafe&resto. They sit. Not long ago a waiter came by bringing a menu bouju.

"Please order a sis" said the waiter.

They also started to choose the menu they wanted.

"I ask no one to order a steak or anything with a knife. I don't want any knives on this dinner table" Almeer said.

They also began ordering food. After he finished recording his food, the waiter resigned himself.

"how are the big brother's news? Where did you sleep last night?" said Nadira.

"Not sleeping. Last night messy house. Yeah about half 5 just sorted out" Almeer said.

"Son't you get it done?. Mostly sister why the hell do not ngizini we help clean-up" said Nadira.

"No. Assisted with Dimas. The man who bullied you yesterday" said Almeer.

Almeer knew a lot of things they were going to ask.Even Almeer himself was ready to tell them everything. It's just that he's not sure of himself. Will he be able to control himself later.

"Oh, how do you think this place is? It's pretty comfortable. There is also live music here. The live music will start" Almeer said, trying to distract them.

"Olderly I didn't hear Brother Sing. I used to sing and perform songs on my birthday. I love playing guitar, violin, and piano. I used to rent a keyboard for Mom's birthday. I want to hear you sing" Althaf said.

Almeer seemed to think for a moment.

"Attent"

Almeer got up from his seat. He walked towards the stage. And had a brief conversation with some of the band personnel who will perform. Almeer sat in front of a piano prepared by the cafe.

"Good afternoon everyone. I want to sing a song to my family sitting there. And all of you. May you all be entertained."

Almeer began to play piano keys into a melody.

🎹🎼

Have you ever dreamed for a moment,

Being where I imagined

bitter sweetness happens

I don't know who knows

maybe you'll feel it later

face with a word stifling

You won't be immune, without consideration

the silence of the night awakens

the soul is expressing

if you honestly understand, I won't stay away.

and my story is still long

adding weight to the look

then I pick it up, I decide, let it be a secret

The more I live in love

I can't afford to cost him

stop words from lying. 🎶🎶🎶

Almeer sings a song very deeply with passion, as if he were singing with his heart. Nadira and Zafira were crying. Until the song is finished. Cheers and applause from the cafe visitors who were drifting to listen to the song. And Almeer returned his chair.

"we eat first and then we talk" Almeer said.

They followed Almeer. Even though in their minds there are many questions that hamper. Almeer first finished his curse. He thought about how to start it all. Will he be able to uncover the old wounds that made him suffer.

Almeer started telling me about 19 years ago. The beginning of his suffering. Things he never told anyone. Even psychologists who have been dealing with it for 12 years.

They listened to Almeer's story carefully. They were shocked and felt that what happened was very disturbing. Almeer is traumatized. Almeer recounted the incident with raging feelings.Amrah and vengeance were clearly visible from the glint of his eyes. Almeer continued to clasp the empty bottle he had deliberately ordered. The bottle was held very tightly. Slowly, the bottle broke in Almeer's hand.

"Sister.. Brother's hand." said Nadira.

"You know. There are times when your excessive curiosity actually sometimes hurts others. And this time what you did was just make an old wound that I tried to press and heal is now wet again" said Almeer

"Sister. Forgive us." said Nadira.

"I know everything. You're trying to find out about the drugs in my room. You guys keep pushing Arthur for stories. And Arthur told me everything he knew. I know all. Even you who come to the illegal rounding place. What are you guys doing that for.? To satisfy your curiosity. Are you satisfied when you know all the disgrace and weakness that I have tried to cover up all this time" Almeer said with a cold aura.

"sorry brother" said Ali and Althaf.

"Yes, it's true that Oabt belongs to me. The drug that has helped me so far is normal in front of you. Yes I am crazy. Have a mental disorder that must continue to take sedatives. That's what you want to know. That's why I never dared to make decisions for my own happiness" Almeer said.

"No brother. Brother is not crazy. Don't say that anymore" Nadira said with a hiccup.

"you know every night I kept fearing the trauma kept coming. Everything I saw seemed to be re-recorded. You know what it's like for my brain to break. Wanting to destroy what was before me. Wishing that shadow to wander away from me. But I actually never succeeded. Even the drug still does not work when night falls. And do you know when the peak of the wound and the trauma arrived?" Almeer.

They're crying. At the sight of how devastated Almeer is when Almeer uncovers everything.

"all things begin to normal when we can get together. Syam survived the want. Rudolf the mastermind was executed in my hands. But a week ago the trauma came back when I saw with my eyes the killer was in front of me. Yes after 19 years I was looking finally I could meet the killer directly." Almeer.

"What do you mean, Al?" ask Arthur.

"Yes, I met the executor who killed mom and dad. He even acknowledged and regretted it directly. And he was willing to turn himself in directly to the police on one condition I could not reveal his identity to his family. He didn't want his family to hate him. Even for that he was willing even if later he had to be put to death" said Almeer.

All gaping

"funny no. You know what it's like to finish him off with my own hands. Killing him was exactly like killing papa and mama. splitting his body and taking all the important organs in his body. Gouged his eyes. But I can't do it. Because it hurt the heart of my loved ones. Because that person is so important to the person I care about" Almeer said.

"who's his brother. Let us execute him" said ali and althaf, visibly angry.

"no. Even the kallian would not be able to do it. You know it's hard to hold back anger that's like a time bomb. I cannot defeat this anger. Look at the people you think are good. People you consider to be your heroes. It was nothing but a weak man who was defeated by his anger. A man full of vengeance ready to destroy anyone. I am not worthy of anyone, I do not deserve to be in the midst of good people like you. I've decided" Almeer said.

"put what off brother?" nadira asked as she continued to cry.

"after this. We have no relationship whatsoever. You know your curiosity hurts me. And there's a price you have to pay to find the answer to that curiosity. And the right price is to go and get away from my life. Don't ever bother me. And let me live my own life. Don't try to find me. And keep going on with your lives" Almeer said.

They're all shocked. They did not accept Almeer's verdict.

"No brother. Brother can't leave. I'm brother's sister. We're a family brother. And my brother cannot leave us. Please forgive us for accidentally hurting my sister. But please don't go I beg you brother. No" Nadira kept begging. He even continued to cry hugging Almeer.

"No deck. Every action has its consequences. And you must be ready. This is our last meeting. Never try to find my whereabouts. Or you'll find I'm no longer alive. If you want me to live in peace then stay away from me. Forever." Almeer also rose. And get out of there.

Nadira Ali and the others try to catch up to Almeer. They're trying to stop Almeer. Almeer did not look back. Nadira decided to stand in the middle of the road.

"Nadira what are you doing?" ali said while shouting.

"Nadira don't be crazy. Later you can get hit" Kiya said shouting.

Almeer who heard the scream turned around. He saw his brother standing on the street.

"Nadira don't be crazy. Back" said Almeer shouting.

"what's it made, brother?. It's just the brother I have. And now my brother wants to leave me. Why stay alive" said Nadira.

From afar Almeer saw the big truck car running quickly and continued to honk. Without thinking long Almeer ran away to attract his sister.

"Stupid. Are you crazy huh. What if you got hit? Mending if you die immediately. But if you survive and actually broke a leg or destroyed your internal organs how. Not tortured in your hell but tortured first in the world" Almeer said.

"ihh evil brother when talking to me is like that" said Nadira ngambek heard the nagging brother.

Almeer hugged Nadira tightly. He couldn't see his sister why.

"don't do anything stupid on the deck" Almeer said.

"sister too. Never leave me again. It's the only brother I have." said Nadira.

"sister can't promise but I'll work on it" Almeer said.

Nadira takes the brother's hand. Seeing the wound on his hand.

"we're curing my brother's hand" said Nadira

"it doesn't hurt the deck. It's not as painful as when you lose your mom, dad and also face that trauma" Almeer said.

"we're going through this together I'm sure slowly we're able to heal the wounds in your heart. But before that we treat the wound in the hand of this brother" said Nadira.

Zafira saw the close relationship between Nadira and almeer felt that their brotherly bond was so close. He did not expect behind the insistence of an Almeer stored fragility that could be destroyed at any time.
