The Young Master's Substitute

The vain hope

One week later.

Fabian got out of his car, after he reached a mall, a shopping center near his office.

Fabian stepped inside the mall. He seems to want to buy something. Fabian since then, still walking alone down the mall.

She stopped her steps and smiled, as she stopped right in front of a baby supply store. He still remembers his wife.

"There's baby gear. I've never bought Syanum baby gear. Or birthing equipment. If I buy it and I give it to Syanum, I'm sure, Syanum won't take it. How can I give something to Syanum. I want to buy something for Syanum" Fabian murmured.

"Hi..."

Fabian was shocked when suddenly, there was someone who patted him gently from behind.

Fabian hurriedly looked back to see who was behind him.

"Abi, are you here?" ask Mentari who suddenly was behind Fabian.

"So, why are you here?" ask Fabian.

"Bi. I want to shop for baby I Bi. You, why are you standing here?" ask Mentari.

"I'd like to buy my baby's needs, too."

Mentari surprised.

"Your baby needs? your wife, has she been found? has she given birth?" ask Mentari.

"not yet. But..."

"But what is Bi?"

"Yes, let me keep Tar. Who knows, Syanum will come back to my house again. So, I've bought all the baby gear for my future son."

"Yes already. Enter yuk! you want to buy anything. Later, I'll choose for your baby." Mentari had already grasped Fabian's arm tightly.

"No need for Tar. Next time, yes." Fabian let go of Mentari's hand.

"I go first, yes" said Fabian.

Fabian turned his body to leave. However, Mentari hurriedly blocked his hand.

"Bi. I want to talk important to you."

Fabian looked back.

"Speak what?"

"On Papa's debts."

"Sorry Tar. I don't have time."

"Bi. Justjust please. This time, give me time. Let's find a nice place to talk."

"alright. But just a minute. I have a lot of business."

Mentari.

"Let's taste better, what if we talk while eating. You must have just come home from work and haven't eaten yet, right?"

"Yes, yeah."

"Oh yes. Nearby, there's a cafe. We'll go there."

Fabian nodded.

****

Fabian and Mentari have been in the cafe ever since. They still spend their time at the cafe for dinner together. By chance, Fabian was also very hungry, so he did not refuse to accept Mentari's invitation.

The current time, it already showed at half-seven p.m. It's been over an hour Mentari and Fabian are in the cafe.

After finishing his meal, Fabian picked up his phone. He has been silent since. Not wanting to talk to Mentari, the woman now in front of him.

'I don't like it, Abi cuekin I like this. In fact, yesterday-yesterday his attitude is also not very fond. What the hell is the same with him. I feel like I've lost my old Abi. He's like he's not Abi, ' Inner Mentari.

Fabian sipped his drink. He looked at Mentari.

"Are you actually bringing me here, going to dinner, or talking about something important?" ask Fabian.

"Bi both," Mentari replied briefly.

"If you take me out for dinner, I'd like to go home now. I want to go home, if we're here, just wasting time."

"Don't go home now Bi...! I still want to be with you."

The mentor suddenly clasped Fabian's hand tightly. Makes Fabian uncomfortable.

"Bi. You are now changing" Mentari said suddenly.

"But yesterday, you were still good with me. You still care about me. But, why are you so cold now like this Bi. I understand that you are not the Abi I know" Mentari continued.

Fabian let go of Mentari's hand.

"Monitorous. Please, from now on you stop contacting me again. I want to improve my relationship with my wife. If you still keep bothering me, I don't know if Syanum still wants to come back or not like me."

"What do you mean Bi?" tanya Mentari looked at Fabian sharply.

"Monitorous. We can't be like we used to be. I have a wife now. And soon, I will also have a child from my wife. I want to change Mentari" Fabian explained.

"Bi. Didn't you say back then, you never loved your wife. Then why are you talking to me so. I thought, after I come back and Syanum leaves, you'll open a new page with me. But why did you turn out this way?"

"Monitorous. When did I ever say that?" ask Fabian.

"You would have said, when I just returned home, if you, married your wife, because of the coercion of your parents. And you will soon leave him" said Mentari.

"And now he's gone from your life Abi. That means, you can already be free Bi from forced marriage. We can go back to how we used to be!" mentari.

Mentari hopes to be back with Fabian. Especially now that he has nothing left.

The two Mentari parents, have already left this world. The treasure of Mentari's parents is also gone. Especially with Pak Riko's house that has been sold, to cover Pak Riko's debts.

Because since Mr. Riko got sick, he had to sell his valuable assets for his very expensive medical expenses.

And the company also has no successor to continue its business. Because Mentari is the only child expected, not becus to take care of his father's business. So that company, bankrupt after Mr. Riko sickly.

Mentari now only a woman kara, whose life can only live in her Tantenya house. She also had a child without a husband. I don't know what else to expect from Mentari for Fabian.

While on the other hand, Fabian still has a wife who is pregnant with his child. And now his wife has turned very beautiful. Even now, Syanum's attitude to Fabian was like snow that somehow Fabian was able to melt it.

Fabian smiled. He felt funny and silly hearing Mentari's words.

"Sorry Mentari. I can't go back to you anymore. Because right now, I don't have any feelings for you anymore. Right now, I just love my wife. She is the woman I deserve to love. Because she's pregnant with my child now. And soon, she'll be the mother of my son."

Deg.

It hurts my heart right now. Dismissed all his hopes of coming back with Fabian.

A drop of Mentari's tears drenched her smooth cheeks. A man who he had hoped to always help him in his difficult times, had now completely ignored him.
