The Substitute

Letterhead

Ozan was relaxing on his balcony when Ameera approached him and sat in a chair with him.

"Mas, why does my arm hurt, yeah. I think it's done in the bite what it is" said Ameera while rubbing her left arm that received an injection from a doctor.

"The hell..." Ozan pretended to rub Ameera's left arm which he complained hurt. When his fingertips clearly sensed the marks of the injection, he pressed down on it.

"Aauuuwwhh is sick." Ameera screeched rubbing her arm.

"Sorry, yank. It hurts a lot, the injection marks?" tanyanya.

"Injected?"

"Hehe..." Ozan was even whiny, making an innocent face in front of Ameera. "No feeling, yes it was injected?" ask Ozan.

Ameera with her innocent face tried to digest Ozan's words. Then his face changed immediately.

"Ah, do you know me? When you were ajakin I gossiped, I was injected, right?" Ozan laughed, feeling his little wife was very funny. He was not aware of the doctor giving him an injection.

"Sorry, my dear wife..."

"Wear acting all over again the same doctor." Ameera snorted in annoyance.

"Yes, sorry. You want to eat something again, don't I buy it?" trying to bribe the wife so as not to sulk.

"Can just ate." said Ameera.

"Yes, eat again..."

"Look at my body now, it's fat, short, ugly, smelly, alive again." Ameera. Annoyed by his appearance now that he feels quite fat. Moreover, she does not like the scent of her own body so sometimes use perfume owned by her husband.

"You're beautiful yank..."

"Beautiful what? It's all your fault, Mas. I'm so fat because you always make me eat a lot."

"Haha. but I like it when you're fat. Padded know... delicious, so want to take you to the room." whispered Ozan, who immediately embraced Ameera's body.

Ameera jumped, she was surprised because her husband was never full in bed. He almost asked for his rations every day.

"You are a human being what is not. You are not satisfied if the business is like that."

"That's a reward for you yank, serving your husband well. Go to heaven, right?"

"Mau.." said Ameera, "So miss mom's dad.." back to remembering his parents made his face turn sad. Ozan then hugged Ameera who since pregnancy his emotions are erratic and easily changed.

"Don't be sad, yank. You still have me, mama, papa, and now we have twins in your belly. Must be much grateful. There are so many people out there who are not as lucky as us" Ozan said trying to comfort his wife's grief.

"False, Mas. You want to accept me who lacks this much."

"You're perfect for me, baby..."

Ameera then kissed her husband's lips, making him happy. Though only a short kiss, but it can make it like floating in the air. Ozan's patience turned the barbaric Ameera into a gentle and caring wife.

Although he initially refused to marry Ameera, now everything has changed. Ozan is grateful that his parents still forced him to marry Ameera even though he desperately refused in various ways.

They also went into the room. Ozan taught Ameera every night, and she also chanted a few verses to her baby at bedtime.

Soekarno - Hatta Airport...

After getting a report from Rizal about Naura's plan to harm Ameera, Rangga became unsettled and decided to return to Indonesia. He wanted to make sure nothing happened to Ameera.

Rizal who was in the airport lobby had been waiting for him since an hour ago. He revealed a thin smile when he saw the figure of Rangga out of the path of arrival.

"Hi bro's. How are you?" Sapa Rizal's.

"As you can see, I'm good." replied Rangga.

They immediately left the airport to Rangga's house. However, they stopped by at a cafe and chatted at length.

"Lu keep an eye on my sister right?" ask Rangga to Rizal.

"Yes. I have a lot of people watching him everywhere. I also secretly installed a GPS in his car. So I can monitor him wherever he goes." replied Rizal.

"good. I don't want Ameera to do anything."

Rizal who was surprised, why Rangga still loves Ameera so much, even though Ameera has married Ozan.

"Lu why the hell, bro. Ameera is married to Ozan. He's happy now. While you haven't been able to move on from him." said Rizal.

"Gue can't move on from Ameera, Zal. If I can't, I won't let him marry someone else." said Rangga.

"So far, what do you do now if it's not because you failed to move on?"

"Zal, if I fail to move on, I've taken Ameera from Ozan yesterday-yesterday" said Rangga later.

"Let's go.... So, how's Dina? You can't hang him on." Hearing Rizal mention Dina's name, Rangga fell silent. He realized that it had been very unfair to Dina.

Rangga was in a small room that was integrated with his room. Looking at a picture of a girl clinging to a wall of thousands. Rangga smiled looking at the photo.

"Ozan, I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have looked at your wife's pictures like now. But you also know how much he means to me. Ameera is all yours. At least let me look at the picture." muttered Rangga.

Rangga thought back, the day before Rudi. Exhaling his last breath, he went to the ICU room where Rudi was treated. He whispered something into the ear of the comatose man.

"Om just calm down. Rest in peace. I'll replace Om watching Ameera. I promise I will do anything to protect Ameera as we have done. Even if it's from afar, I'll make sure Ameera's okay."

At that time Rudi had responded by moving his finger and grasping Rangga's hand even though his movement was very weak.

Get an envelope from inside the drawer. Recalling, a week after Rudi's death, Bu Yani gave a letter left by Rudi to Rangga. Rudi wrote the letter a few days before his death, and asked Bu Yani to give it to Rangga in case something happened to him. Rangga read the letter with tears.

My son Rangga. if you can forgive me. I'm not being fair to you. I know how you feel about Ameera. But, I promised my best friend to marry Ameera to her son first. I don't want to ruin my friendship by reneging on promises I've made, like my mistake of reneging on my promise to your father in the past. I don't hate your father for what he did to my family. You know, we used to be best friends, your dad was the best friend I ever had. But our mistakes in the past changed everything. Forgive us for making you hurt by the grudges between us. To me you are like my own son and I believe in you. You take better care of Ameera than I do. If one day this letter gets into your hands, it means I'm no more. Please, stay a good friend to Ameera. Do not repeat our mistakes. You have a choice to live a better life than us.

Thus the letter that Rudi wrote to Rangga.

"I wouldn't make a mistake like papa. Papa hates Om Rudi for marrying his aunt Ratna to do this evil. I will not repeat his mistake. Although I can't have Ameera, but I will always look after her from afar. I will make sure Ameera is always happy even with others." murmured Rangga.
