A Substitute Bride
Happy Temples

Tok ... tok …

The noise of knocking on the door made Kayla wake up from her dream. After last night he lamented his fate by crying all night and just falling asleep, now his sleep must be disturbed again because of the sound.

Kayla quickly got out of bed and opened the door, which must have been Axel, her husband who knocked. Who else if not him, because they only live alone in the apartment.

"What do you want again? Want to torture me early in the morning like this?" Kayla asked without looking at the handsome face of her husband.

"I'm not looking for a storm with you. Now you get up and prepare breakfast, because soon your parents and my parents will come here. I also don't know why they suddenly wanted to come here and say they wanted to have breakfast together" Axel said.

"I don't want to, why don't you just order outside" Kayla said.

"Don't argue with Kayla, I've been trying to speak well with you!" Axel stared hard.

Not wanting to make the tiger in front of him that would punish him again, Kayla also immediately came out of her room and headed to the kitchen. If it wasn't for her parents and also her in-laws, it was certain Kayla wouldn't have obeyed what Axel said after what the man had done to her.

5 minutes later, Axel approached him who at that time seemed to be busy with equipment and spices in the kitchen.

"You have to remember Kayla, both in front of my parents and your parents we have to pretend to be happy. If until you show me how tormented your life is with me, I will definitely make your life suffer even more" Axel said, speaking right in his ear.

"It turns out you know that my life is suffering with you" hardened Kayla.

"Of course I know, I can see it and that's my goal to marry you" Axel said, prompting Kayla to stop her activities.

"Whatchu mean? You purposely married me to torture me and make my life suffer so?" Kayla asked who turned her body to look at Axel.

"It's clear Kayla, I want to take revenge for what you did that made my future wife leave me, right on our wedding day. Do you know how tortured my heart is when I face the fact that my wife ran away on the wedding day and it's all because of you" Axel said.

"I didn't do anything Axel, Keisha has slandered me. Why do you believe so much in Keisha that it is clearly a lie. Didn't you have a long relationship with Keisha, you should know who she is, she's honest or not" Kayla said.

"Surely because I knew her very well, she was a good woman, a woman I loved so much that I believed all her words. Never mind, now cook quickly because soon our parents will be there soon," said Axel and soon passed.

Kayla shed her tears, holding the pain in her chest. Right now he is trying to neutralize his feelings and be patient with the situation that is going on in his life. After feeling quite calm, Kayla also resumed her activities to cook.

While Axel took Kayla's belongings to be moved to his room, he did not want if his parents and in-laws would find out that they separated the room.

Not long after, the guests were expected to arrive, namely Kayla's parents and Axel's parents. They just go in and are welcome to go directly to the dining room, because at that time all the breakfast menu that has been cooked by Kayla with her own hands has been presented on the table. Kayla and Axel themselves also look neat by using matching clothes.

"Well .. You two are so romantic. You look so harmonious and so happy" Roseline said.

"Yes, Mama was so happy to see it. Hopefully you two can continue to be happy, yes" said Karina anyway.

"It turns out that even though Axel did not marry Keisha, Kayla could also replace her position to be a good wife for Axel" said Alex.

Somehow hearing about it made Axel became very upset, considering his marriage failed because of Kayla. But he tried to hold it by being forced to smile in front of their parents. Likewise with Kayla, he was seen forcing a smile even though in his heart felt very sick with this happy pretend play.

"It's true what Kayla said, it's better that we have breakfast now" Axel said.

Then they immediately sat down and enjoyed the breakfast together that had been made by Kayla.

"It turns out Kayla's cooking is delicious too," Axel said as he chewed the food.

For almost a month married to Kayla, Axel had just tasted the food made by his wife. Because all this time he had never touched it when Kayla asked him to taste the cuisine.

"Darling, your cooking is so delicious" said Roseline.

"Thank you Mom" said Kayla.

"Kayla's taste is very similar to her mother's cooking" Raymond said.

"Oh yeah? It means Kayla learned to cook from her mother, yes" Rosselin said.

"Yes very true Ma'am, Kayla is very diligent to help me when in the kitchen. Very different from his sister, Keisha who does not want to know about kitchen affairs at all" said Karina.

Again they mention the name of Keisha which makes Axel also feel angry because he remembered the incident where he was abandoned by the bride-to-be because of the actions of his own brother, his sister, who is now his wife.

After enjoying breakfast together, now the two families are sitting in the front room to chat casually. Until it does not feel the time has shown at 10:00 and now the time they will go home on the grounds there are their respective affairs and do not want to disturb Axel and Kayla who will spend vacation time at home together.

"Axel, Kayla, Mommy hope you two are okay, living well together. If there are problems in the household it is common, but you have to solve it well. If you two are not strong enough to face the problem, you can tell us as your parents" said Roseline.

"Mama titip son Mama ya Axel. Take care of her, love her. Although at this time you do not fully love him, but with nurtured Mama is sure you both can love each other," said Karina.

Kayla was stunned, she felt so guilty about having to lie to her mother and in-laws. They are very happy with the condition of their household that looks very harmonious, even though they only pretend to be happy.

"You guys take it easy, I will always be happy and take care of Kayla, my wife," Axel said.

"Axel, that man who is held is his promise. Daddy doesn't want you to cause trouble until you hurt your wife" Alex says.

"Yes Dad, Daddy can really hold my word" Axel said.

"Papa believes in you Axel, Papa is sure you can definitely keep Papa's son well. For Keisha's business, Papa is really sorry and Papa hopes you can forget about it. Even until now we do not know where it is, but we hope Keisha is okay. If it's time, he'll definitely come back home" Raymond said.

"Yes Pa is okay, I've forgotten about that and will now focus on my household with Kayla" Axel said.

Kayla rolled a lazy eyeball without anyone seeing it, it felt very excited to hear the words of Axel who was very smart to play.
