"Who are you really?" rafli's screams echoed that night.
Yuna who was still lying on the bed jumped up instantly.
"Whatchu mean? I'm Yuna, your wife."
"Don't try to lie to me because you're not Yuna!" Without caring that the woman before him was still in the drowsiness, Rafli stepped forward and pulled him down from the bed, then pushed him violently to the floor. "You think I can't recognize my own wife?"
"But I am your wife!"
Rafli shook his head quickly. Since coming home earlier, he had indeed felt the figure that welcomed him was very foreign. It was not Yuna who had been by his side all this time.
"You may have a face similar to my wife's, but you won't be able to fool me. If you are Yuna, where is the birthmark on your right thigh? One more thing, why is there an operation in your stomach?"
Yuna in the fog. As fast as a gust of wind, he knelt before Rafli.
"I'm sorry. I am Yuna your wife. But the one you were yesterday was not me" he said with tears beginning to flow down his cheeks.
Hearing the confession, Rafli felt all parts of his body being devoured by fire. For a while he was silent in place to unravel the anger that felt through the crown.
"He is Arumi, my twin brother. She was jealous of me for marrying you, which is why she threatened me to switch places with her from the first night we got married. He kept me in a room and left me there. He also forced me to be a donor to our mother."
Yuna wiped away the tears, then headed towards the closet and pulled out a piece of paper. He gave it to Rafli.
"This is the letter of agreement he made at the time. I don't want to sign because I disagree. Only he signed here."
Rafli receives a letter of agreement signed by Arumi and Yuna. The blood in his body was like boiling reading the line of words written there. His common sense almost disappeared imagining a year of living in a hoax.
"How dare you lie to me all this time." Rafli squeezed the paper until it was tangled, then he fell in any direction.
"I beg you to trust me. I never wanted to lie to you. That afternoon Arumi just asked to change places back after successfully carrying away some money."
Rafli. During this time he had never checked his personal financial statements, nor had he ever checked the transactions made by Yuna. And that night, he had to be surprised after finding Arumi who had been thinking his wife had left by running away with money in a very large house.
It's not the money Rafli thinks. He regretted why he had to be so easily lied to by a foreign woman for one year.
Flashback Off
Raffli's daydream was renewed by the presence of a voice that had just greeted. Yuna just entered the room.
"What's wrong?" ask her with a flat tone.
"I don't want to talk to you right now."
Rafli laid Aika who was already asleep on the bed. Then move out of that room. While Yuna was silent on the spot. Since the incident that night, Rafli's attitude became very cold and seemed to want to avoid him. Even Rafli refuses to room with her, when in fact they are a legal married couple.
"I should be able to win Rafli's sympathy and make him hate Arumi even more."

Next day
Arumi walked slowly through the park. This afternoon he recklessly quietly entered through the back door and slipped into Aika's room. His little heart felt that his daughter was in need of him at this moment. Especially after hearing Aika's cry last night. It doesn't matter if Rafli hates him more. Arumi just wants to let go of the longing for her daughter.
Arumi's premonition turned out to be right, from the balcony of the room she could hear Aika's crying voice. He peered inside, looking Riana's mother was having trouble calming her daughter. Yuna was not seen there.
Unable to hear the cry, Arumi stepped in.
"Arumi?" Riana's mother looked quite surprised at Arumi's sudden arrival.
"Mother, please don't misunderstand me. I just came here to see Aika. Please allow me. I promise I'll go after."
The middle-aged woman looked at the pity Arumi. Then he glanced at his grandson who had been crying.
"Alright, but don't let Rafli know, because he'll be very angry."
Arumi nodded quickly, then grabbed Aika's tiny body and hugged her. He kissed his face over and over again. That instant also Aika's cry slowly subsided.
"My son, forgive mommy for having to put you in such a difficult position."
The small moans coming from her tiny lips made Arumi immediately breastfeed her little daughter.
"Thank you for letting me see Aika, Mom," Arumi said.
The middle-aged woman only nodded as she occasionally glanced towards the door to make sure everything was safe.
A few minutes Arumi spent in that room. At least the longing for his daughter was slightly treated.
Soon the door opened, followed by the appearance of someone from behind the door. Arumi who was still hugging Aika gasped. His embrace of the small body grew even tighter.
