A Substitute
Pretty girl like her


"Now explain to Mama, is everything the woman said at the party true?" asked Sevina looking seriously at Davin. They are now in Davin's house. Conducting a trial to Davin that Light was finally known to be married because he was forced to.


"Right, Ma," Davin said slowly.


"Why are you doing all this, son?" Sevina looked at Davin with a disappointed look.


"I'm sorry, Ma, but I did so that Mama wouldn't urge me to marry the girl Mama chose." Davin looked at me with a guilty look. He regretted having lied to everyone about his relationship with the Light.


"Geez, why do you have so much heart for us, son? What's our fault?" Sevina could not even shed her tears. The thing Davin hated the most right now. Moreover, the cause of her mother shed tears was because of her. If only he could turn back the clock, he would not have done this. He must realize that every action has consequences.


The light just bowed. He did not dare to look at the faces of his two in-laws.


"Light, why did you commit suicide that night?" asked Sevina who now turned to look at her daughter-in-law.


"Sorry, Ma, at that time I will be married to an old man for money" said Light who still bowed his head.


"Gear your face as you speak, Light!"


Hearing that cry, the light immediately raised its face. He looked at his mother-in-law with a guilty look. Her father-in-law looked at her with disappointment.


"Who was the woman who dismantled all this?"


"She was Lia, the wife of my former fiancee who got me almost married to an old man, Ma."


"Then, can Mama ask you something? Don't you like Davin at all?"


Sevina's question made Davin and the Light look at each other. The confused light must say what. If she said she loved Davin, her mother-in-law would ask Davin to keep the marriage. In fact, Davin himself does not love the Light at all because his heart is still tied to the love of his past that even though he can never reach.


"Now just think about your marriage. Mama hopes you can solve this problem without divorce."


Sevina and David leave their home. Now, there lived Davin and Light who were still sitting on the sofa of the house.


"Mas, I'm sorry. I should've..."


"Then are you mad at me?"


"What is angry for? It all happened, Light. Even if I'm angry, it won't change anything."


"Then, what about our marriage?" The light looked doubtful.


"Well, at a time like this I can't decide yet. I was too sad because for the first time Mama was crying because of me. If only I hadn't.... Why blame yourself."


The light could see from Davin's gaze that the man seemed to blame himself for tonight's incident.


"Mas, i..."


"Sorry, don't bother me first." Davin cut off the Light's speech and left the woman to go to her room.


The light felt very sad to get such treatment from Davin. He immediately went to his room to pack.


But, he just remembered that all the clothes in this house were purchases from Davin. His own clothes were none.


He just carried a sling bag and waited for the right time to get out of the house without Davin knowing.


After much effort, he finally made it to the streets. He also stopped an online motorcycle taxi that happened to be not far from where he walked.


"Bang, to the terminal, yes," Light said as he patted the bulge on the shoulder.


"Yes, Neng." The bulge also directly brings the light to the terminal.


He immediately bought a ticket for a bus that would take him to a village. The village was the birthplace of his father. There, he will start a new life.


Hopefully this way Davin will not feel bothered anymore by him.
