A Substitute

A Substitute
I still want to live


One week later.


"Mas, where are we going?" ask Light as they are on their way to a location Davin has not informed.


Earlier, Davin just told her to get ready because they were going to attend a dinner invitation by someone Davin said was very important. However, many times the Light asked, Davin never told. He simply said that this person was a very important person.


Their journey also leads them to a luxurious luxury house. Eyes of Light can not blink to see the splendor and beauty of the house.


"Well, it's luxurious, Mas, surely the one who has is a rich man," said Light who was still amazed.


"Come, come in, we've been waiting for." Davin took the Light's hand and entered the house.


And again the Light was impressed with the luxury of the house. Even more luxurious than their homes. Probably almost the same as their grandfather's house, Sean Armadja, which became one of the most luxurious houses in the city.


They were greeted by an elderly grandfather sitting in a wheelchair with an oxygen hose still on his nose.


The light looked at him. "Grandfather, are you sick?" tanyanya slow.


'He was riding in a wheelchair and there was an oxygen hose on his nose. And you're still asking if she's sick?' inner Davin while shaking her head.


"Please enter first, son," said the old man with a friendly smile.


"I'm sorry, Mom, I'm not your son. I'm adala...."


"Gosh, I'm sorry, sir, sorry." Davin patted his forehead looking at the Light's behavior.


"Hahaha, it's okay, he's really funny. Come on, come on in, let's have dinner together."


They went into the dining room and enjoyed dinner together. The light kept on pressing Davin with various cues. However, it seems Davin is reluctant to tell.


Throughout the dinner, they only talked about business. Making Light confused because it does not understand about the business world.


Until after they finish dinner, Light thinks it's over and they'll be home. However, apparently the old man took them to the family room and saw the family photo album of the old man.


"Light, what's your full name?"


"Current Light, Cake."


"A very good name. How was your life with your uncle and aunt?"


"Why did Grandpa ask that?"


"Grandfather just wants to know."


"Have you?"


"They consider me a burden."


"Where are your parents?"


"Said uncle and aunt, they died in the village."


"Will you see this photo album?" The old man handed a photo album to Light.


Although initially confused, Light still received it and opened it.


However, just as he opened the first page, he was surprised to see a photo of his father when he was young. Beside him was a man who had a face almost similar to that of his grandfather.


"Sorry, my lady, who is she?" ask the Light while pointing at the face of the father.


"His name is Anggara, and he's my son."


The light shut its mouth in disbelief. He looked at the grandfather with a surprised look.


"So Grandpa was the one who kicked my parents out of this house until my grandfather's enemies killed them?" Light stood up from his stool and stared intently at the old man.


Davin was surprised that the Light knew everything. Where did he know that and Davin never told me?


"Light, listen to Grandpa first. Actually..."


"For so many years, I've been waiting for this moment to say all my swearing to you. My miserable life because of my uncle and aunt is also your responsibility."


"Light, calm yourself first." Davin tried to calm his wife.


"No, I don't care! Now we go home or you'll see me hauling a cab down the street!"


Davin was forced to obey the Light from his wife to do reckless actions.


While the old man stared at their departure with teary eyes. Implied a very big regret because when he was sick like this, he was just looking for the grandson.
