Will Not Be Substituted

Chapter 77: A minor debate

The day changed in the morning. Caca blinked his eyes when he felt someone rub his head. Sunlight greeted, as did someone sleeping beside him.

“Good morning,” greet Abhimanyu with his hands faithfully rubbing the head of the wife.

Caca lifted his hand from the body of Abhimanyu. Caca was unconscious since when to hug that body.

“Udah noon, you have lecture hours right?” ask Abhimanyu reminding. His head looked at the wall clock that was showing at six in the morning.

“I take a shower first, yes!” pamit Abhimanyu stood up.

Caca's husband took her towel hanging near the bathroom door. Before going inside, Abhimanyu turned to his wife and gave one sweet smile that could make anyone melt.

Caca smiled back until Abhimanyu's body was swallowed by the door. Afterwards Caca pulled the blanket, buried his head there. Caca was still a bit sleepy, because he slept very late last night.

Caca was confused with himself. Because, last night after their conversation was over they switched to bed. Caca, who was plagued with guilt, did not dare to look at her husband. Caca very deliberately turned her back on her husband. Not because he was still angry, but because Caca did not dare to look at the man.

In recent times Caca has always been asleep in the arms of the Abhimanyu. It seemed like the young man's embrace became his own opium for her. Until last night when Caca didn't get that hug Caca couldn't fall asleep. His eyes only closed without running into dreamland.

After an hour passed Caca felt a movement from behind him. It further tightens its net to shut down. Unexpectedly Caca felt Abhimanyu's hand rub his head. Abhimanyu did not know that his wife had not slept. Caca could still hear a sentence that made him smile before falling asleep as Abhimanyu grabbed him without permission.

“Never stay with me, Ca. My life is within you. I hope God opens your heart so you can love me. From now until we get old. I love you.”

In her heart, Caca cursed herself. The girl felt very guilty about her actions last night. He even cried in the arms of his ex-lover. Fortunately, he did not tell his conjecture which turned out to be a big mistake.

Fifteen minutes passed. Abhimanyu had finished cleaning himself. He told Caca to take a shower. The day is very noon, they may be stuck in traffic on the road if they do not leave immediately.

In the afternoon Caca was in the campus library. The girl was looking for a book she could use as her reference. From behind the rows of bookshelves, Caca was observing the titles of books arranged there. Five minutes later Caca found the book he had been looking for.

A faint smile was imprinted on the lips of the girl. Afterwards, Caca sat on an empty chair in the corner of the room. As usual, Caca put earphones in her ear before reading a book. A few minutes passed and Caca was already immersed in the book before him.

Too focused on her book, Caca did not realize there was someone sitting in front of her. The girl's head occasionally nodded as the rhythm of the song sounded in her ears. However, shortly afterwards the girl fell silent as she looked up and found that someone else was there. His gaze met the figure of the young man who had been out of nowhere to sit in front of him.

Caca lowered his earphones, then asked, “You've entered, De?”

Dean smiled. “Udah, I missed a lot. So, I don't want long in the apartment.” Dean's answer was greeted by a nod by the ex-lover.

“You're not papa?” Found Caca just silent Dean asked back.

Caca blinked his eyes twice to digest Dean's question, then cleared his throat awkwardly as he recalled last night's incident.

“Yes, I'm not papa, kok,” replied the girl softly.

There was no more conversation between the two humans. Caca became a little awkward dealing with Dean after last night's incident. After hearing Abhimanyu's every sentence, Caca wanted to try to appreciate her husband by not getting too close to other men. However, Caca was obliged to respect Abhimanyu wherever he was.

Caca refocused on his book, slightly ignoring Dean who was still faithfully sitting there looking at Caca's pretty face. There was no intention in Caca to drive Dean out of his presence. The young man did not bother him either.

In silence Dean watched Caca's movements. The girl looks very funny when she is focused on books or work. Dean was happy to look at Caca's concentration, especially when the girl confirmed the location of the glasses to make Caca's elegance increase.

Dean was still busy looking at Caca when suddenly Abhimanyu was sitting next to the girl. Raut did not like to not hesitate Dean emitted when Abhimanyu suddenly rubbed Caca's shoulder.

For a moment Caca glanced at Dean who was still in his place before replying to Abhimanyu's greeting. Caca's smile was etched sweetly as her gaze collided with her husband.

“You from here it turns out, the pantes I look for in the canteen do not exist,” said Abhimanyu.

Caca threw his smile back without answering the young man's question.

“Lo what is my wife?” cynical Abhimanyu to his cousin. He could feel Caca pinching his thigh. Perhaps the woman did not like the tone of Abhimanyu.

Dean snorted amusedly. He threw his face away, then looked back at Abhimanyu with a sneering look.

“Btw, lo's wife is my girlfriend.”

Caca was made glare with Dean's answer.

“Lo don't want to leave him on your wedding day? That means Caca is no longer a girlfriend, lo,” reply Abhimanyu do not want to lose.

Abhimanyu raised his index finger. “Gue perematin, lo! Lo, do not need to be close again with Caca, he already has a husband and husband he is in front, lo!” remember Abhimanyu with a very soft voice.

One corner of Dean's lips lifted. “Indeed why if Moon is your wife? No problem I am here.”

“Lo–”

“Dean, Abi stop. It's library. You guys don't debate here.” Caca raised both his hands to his chest.

The two men were silent for a moment. Their gazes were extremely fierce as if they could crush each other.

“Ca, she it–”

“Abi already, yes. I don't want any commotion here,” Caca said.

Abhimanyu exhaled his breath rough. His gaze was still very sharp at Dean who was currently sneering at him.

Dean leaned slightly on Caca. “I go first, yes, Mom. If you need me like semalem you know where I am.”

Dean stood up. Then get out of the library.

Abhimanyu clearly heard Dean's sentence for his wife. Indirectly Dean said last night Caca went to see the young man. Like being hit by a boulder, Abhimanyu's chest felt very tight knowing all that.

“So, how come you found him?” ask Abhimanyu make sure.

There was nothing else Caca could do but nod and justify. He does not want to make a lie that later there will certainly be more lies.
