The Substitute

Burning jealous version Rangga

Morning time...

Eagerly Ameera hurriedly descended the stairs. I can't wait to say hello to the in-laws who haven't seen each other for months. Ozan who came from the kitchen saw Ameera running down the stairs made his heart feel like it was going to be dislodged.

"Yank, slow down the stairs, don't run!!" yelled Ozan who was already very afraid to see Ameera's behavior.

"No need to shout, I hear it" said Ameera, holding her ear.

"You did that, Ameera. Make a man a hanger. What if you fall down the stairs. What a careless you...!!"

Ozan's loud voice scolded Ameera even sounding all the way to the dining room where Zarima was preparing breakfast. He rushed to them.

"Ozan... Are you angry early in the morning?" said Zarima who did not accept to hear Ozan scold Ameera.

"This, Mah... This brat ran down the stairs."

"Mama.." call Ameera in a soft voice and teary eyes. He came closer and hugged his mother-in-law.

Zarima rounded his eyes to look at Ozan. His lips even moved to say the word "your watch!" without making a sound. And as a serious threat, Ozan chose to find safety immediately to the dining room for breakfast.

"I miss, Mah.." said Ameera with his pot.

"Mama too, son. You've been fine all along. Are they taking good care of you?" tanyanya while rubbing Ameera's distended bun.

Zarima gently wiped away the tears of his daughter-in-law. "Don't cry, son. Mama will be angry with your husband..."

"Not that, Mah... I cried because I was so happy to have Mama back."

Zarima smiled and then kissed Ameera's forehead, his affection for Ameera as much as he loved his own biological child.

"We have breakfast, yuk. Mama cooked your favorite asparagus soup" she said, stroking Ameera's hair.

Ameera was so happy to get the attention of a mother she hadn't had in a long time. "Thank you, Mama..."

Zarima who cooked a lot of food that morning forced Ameera to eat a lot. He really is very similar to Ozan in terms of force eating.

"Kenyang, Mah.." said Ameera when she felt her stomach was full of food.

"Yes, when we finish eating, we go to Mama's room, yes. Mama brought ole-ole from Turkey which is a lot for you" said Zarima eagerly.

"Make me not exist, Mah?" ask Ozan.

"What are you...? Mama has nothing for you" replied Zarima casually.

"Yee, choose love."

Zarima then took Ameera to his room. As soon as he passed Ozan, Ameera smiled mockingly as she waved her hand.

"Review, yes you. Already have allies now." muttered Ozan, he then continued his breakfast alone.

In the room, Ameera was stunned to see the many items Zarima had brought for her. There were maternity clothes, baby clothes and many other items he bought for Ameera.

"Imel, one suitcase please share for every worker in this house." Zarima asked the house assistant.

"Good, Madam..."

"Mama, why buy this stuff so much? Mama must have bothered." asked Ameera while looking at all the stuff.

"And mom bought for you and your twin granddaughter." said Zarima who even forgot to buy something for Ozan.

****

And, day after day passed quickly. 8 Months of pregnancy Ameera. Getting closer to the date of birth, makes Ozan and Zarima so strict guarding him.

On the other hand, Rangga with its increasingly becoming. In addition Dina who seemed to disappear from her life made her worse. He realized just how much a Dina meant to him.

It is true said Bang Rhoma, if it is not new, that his presence is precious. That's how Rangga feels now.

Ameera came to visit him almost every day. Sometimes Ameera accompanied him to therapy. However, his sadness did not subside. He pretends to be happy in front of Ameera to keep his best friend's feelings from getting more guilty.

If anyone is sad, then on the other side there is happy. Ramon blossomed after Dina gave him a chance to open his heart.

Let's say Ramon became an escape for Dina, that's true. Ramon's presence slowly eroded the pain in his heart that had become a mountain. Dina tried as hard as possible to forget Rangga by busying herself on campus or spending time with Ramon.

Rangga must also be willing to become a stalker. He accompanied Rizal sometimes watching Dina from a distance without Dina noticing. It hurts, seeing loved ones with others.

Like that afternoon, Dina and Ramon were eating at a food court. While Rangga from a distance can only look at Dina who lately is so cute for him. He saw the laughter and joy of Dina who had never seen him while with him. There is such a deep regret.

It did not feel like his hands were clenching themselves until they shook. Rizal who saw that immediately whispered to her.

"Lu can still see if he wants to go home." whispered Rizal.

"Shut up!! I just want to make sure Bang Ramon doesn't mess with Dina."

Your behavior is still.the heart is bleeding so it still does not want to say love. Inner Rizal

"Eh, they're gone... How's it?" rizal asked as soon as he saw Ramon and Dina moving from the food court.

"Yes follow, Zal... Ask again!!"

Rasain, you.. Is it good? Inner Ramon

"Din, let's take a walk through the night, yuk.." take Ramon later.

"By, Brother. I just happen to need some more entertainment." said Dina with a beautiful smile.

They also headed for a night market that was quite crowded that night. Ramon bought some tickets to play some of the rides there.

Do not ask the condition of Rangga's heart. He felt he was just a few feet away from the center of the solar system so hot his heart. Even he already felt charred burning and became charcoal.

"It's more like a romantic date, you know." Rizal told Rangga. The man who always did not know the place when he said it made Rangga so upset.

"Gue wants to go home, Zal." pinta Rangga who can't stand to see Ramon and Dina who are very romantic values.

"Related, you..."

"Want to get dengue fever? There's a lot of mosquitoes here, Zal."

Tell me you're hot look at them. No need to be a mosquito as a scapegoat. Inner Rizal.

Finally Rizal drove Rangga home because he could not stand it anymore. Ramon and Dina continued their walk that night.

Arriving at home, he shut himself in his room, contemplating his fate.

***

That night Zarima, Ozan and Ameera were having dinner at home. As usual the mother and child always forced Ameera to eat a lot until Ameera became fatter than before.

"Yank..this is your locket is finished in repair." said Ozan after finishing eating, while handing a small box in front of Ameera.

Ameera, who was very happy, grabbed the box and opened it.

"Still, Mas." said Ameera, observing the locket. And right, the locket is back to full as before.

Without them noticing, Zarima who was trying to sharpen his gaze stared at the pendant intently. His body trembled, his eyes even glazed over seeing a pendant in Ameera's hands. Even the spoon he was holding fell to the floor just like that.

"A-meera... How can the locket be with you?" zarima asked with her trembling voice, her tears escaping just wetting her cheeks.

Ameera and Ozan are confused to see Zarima just looking at each other.

"Mama why?" ask Ozan.

"That locket... Ameera, Mama replied, why would the locket be with you?"

"This locket? It's actually Rangga's, Mah. I once removed the piece. And Mas Ozan found it."

"Yes, Mah... Mama knows, it turns out that the person who saved me in the accident at that time turned out to be Ameera. We only found out a few weeks ago" Ozan said.

But that's not what the woman was asking. He only focused on the pendant held by Ameera.

Zarima took the pendant from Ameera's hand. Suddenly her crying broke.

"Denna... Denizku. "groaning as he sobbed.

Suddenly Deniz's shadow danced in his mind. Then suddenly everything was dark. Zarima collapsed and almost fell to the floor if Ozan did not immediately catch his body.

"Mrs...!!" ameera shouted, "Mama why, Mas?" ask Ameera. She even cried to see her mother-in-law unconscious.

"Mama.. wake up, Ma.." said Ozan, patting Zarima on the cheek.

"Bring it to my room, Mas!"

Ozan then carried Zarima's body to his room. Several maids and Bu Yani appeared to panic.

"Mom... Mama why?" ameera asked Bu Yani at a sobbing.

"You calm down Ameera, maybe just tired" replied Ms. Yani.

Ozan called his family doctor to come home. One question in her heart, why did the mother faint after mentioning Deniz's name.

Ozan then approached Ameera who was crying in fear and hugged her. "Don't worry, yank... Mama will be fine. Don't cry!"

"But mom why, Mom."

"I don't know, Yank. Don't cry anymore, yeah..."

Ameera then approached Zarima, who was lying on the bed. "Wake up, Ma. Don't scare Ameera,"

Ameera took her mother-in-law's hand and kissed her.

Not long after, a female doctor came to the room and checked on Zarima.
