A Substitute Bride
Meet The Brother

"I beg you to come home Kei, the family misses you a lot. Everyone is worried about looking for your whereabouts. You come with me home, yes" asked Kayla who continued to beg her sister.

But instead of following her sister, Keisha looks even more distant.

"Please don't bother me, sister, I don't want to go home. Even if there's a time when I'll be home, but I'm sure you'll all be sorry for letting me go. No one cares about me, you think I am gone forever, and I am still alive. So I don't care anymore about you either, because all this time you guys didn't think of me at all, it must be what you want, you want me to go away forever from your lives," said Keisha who looked angry.

"No, Kei, you misunderstood me. Everyone is looking for you, everyone cares about you Kei. Even we never give up looking for you" Kayla said with a soft look.

"Liar, I don't believe you all at all. Never mind me again, never look for me again because it's too late" Keisha said, turning her back to Kayla.

"Keisha .. I beg Kei not to go, don't leave me!" Call Kayla.

However, when he was about to chase after his sister, somehow his footsteps seemed stiff and heavy so he could not do it.

"Hey, please wait!" Kayla continued to scream with her cries.

Until then Keisha was getting away and was no longer visible from the sight of his eyes.

"Key Keisha … !" Kayla kept screaming and was able to walk around, but did not meet her sister.

"Just .. Keisha … !"

"Darling, wake up baby!" Call Axel while gently shaking Kayla's body. He also woke up to the sudden sound of the wife screaming.

Kayla wakes up and realizes that everything is just a dream.

"Mas" said Kayla with a sad look and just sat down.

Axel rubbed his wife's shoulder slowly trying to calm his heart, then he gave a drink that was usually provided on the nightstand and immediately scooped up by Kayla. It seemed like Kayla was very tired from yelling at her sister.

"Dear, what's wrong with you? You dream of Keisha?" Ask Axel.

"Yes Mas, I had a dream that I met Keisha somewhere. But I took Keisha home and she didn't want to. Keisha said we no longer care about him at all" Kayla explained.

"Honey, I'm sure it must be because Keisha really no longer exists in this world, for that she does not want you to bring her back here again. And that means Keisha reminds you to no longer think about or look for her whereabouts" Alex said.

"No, if I don't think it's because of that. But I'm sure Keisha is alive, but we don't really care to look for her anymore. Even we think it has been gone forever, so that makes Keisha was so disappointed this time against us," said Kayla who made Axel speechless.

According to Axel, what was said by his wife was true and reasonable. However, he did not want to make the atmosphere more runyam, so Axel also chose to be quiet.

While Kayla seemed worried because she dreamed of meeting her sister who felt like reality.

The next day Kayla and Axel pay a visit to Kayla's parents' house. Because it just so happens that today is a holiday, so Fernando and Axel are both not going to the company.

At that time Kayla also told her parents about her dream to meet her sister last night.

"Darling, Papa hope you don't think too much about it, Papa is sure that it's just a sleeping flower. You know for yourself, if we've been struggling to find Keisha all this time, but once we don't find her. Even until it has been informed to all residents of Surabaya if they find your sister, they will definitely contact us, as well as in all villages of the river waters. But until now there was absolutely no news, it means that Keisha does not exist. And the police also said if Casey was still in the river, he would not have survived because the river flow was so heavy" Raymond said.

"Yes Pa, I also wanted to do what the police said. But I don't know you, ever since I had a dream last night, it felt like it was real. I feel like if Keisha is really alive, we haven't found Keisha's body yet, either. So the possibility for Keisha to survive, Keisha's life is still there. But we have stopped searching for Keisha, so in the dream Keisha also said that she felt disappointed because we no longer care about her, we absolutely no one wants to do that search Pa" Kayla said with teary eyes.

"I want us to go to Surabaya and we go back to looking for Keisha" Kayla said.

"Darling, that's not possible. 'The police there are also still looking for information, although they did not immediately go down to the location. Besides, if you want to find Keisha, let me command my men who are there to find Keisha, yes, we don't need to go there" Axel argued.

"What difference does it make if the police or your men are looking for him. I want to go straight, I want to prove that Keisha really isn't there anymore" Kayla said.

"How is it, honey?" Ask Axel.

"Any way, anyway I want to go to Surabaya. If you don't want to come, I'll go alone" Kayla said.

So Axel, Karina and Raymond can no longer argue what Kayla wants. They also agreed to go to Surabaya looking for Keisha, just to set the time when they can go there as soon as possible.

Evening was approaching, as usual after Arya's work always stopped by a stall, bought something for Santi. Since Santi has woken up from his coma, it feels like Arya has really felt love for the woman even though she does not know where Santi came from and who he really is. It could have been if Santi was a woman who had married and had children, but it did not make Arya waver before getting the proof. Even now he has also proposed a loan at his workplace because it will take Santi to a hospital in the city. He wants to see Santi healthy, but that does not mean to hope that his memory returns. He just wanted to see Santi's condition get better, considering Santi who always complained if his head and body were often sick.

But upon arrival at home, Arya did not find the existence of Santi who usually always lay in the room, because his condition is still weak. So he became worried about tracing all corners of the house to be his existence, but also did not find the woman. And 1 again, Arya also did not find where the existence of the Grandmother.

When Arya came out of the house to find their whereabouts there, she also saw Grandpa Aminah with Santi who had just returned from nowhere

"Geez, Grandma, where the hell is she from? I panicked to find you two. Then why did Grandma take Santi out? Santi'll be up for a week now from his coma" said Arya.

"Sorry Cu, Grandma just went out for a while with Santi. Grandma doesn't know if you've come home so soon" said Grandma Aminah.

"Should not be invited out first dong Nek Santai," said Arya.

"Arya, you don't have to worry or scold Grandma. I was the one who took Grandma out for a walk, because I was bored, so I just wanted to take a walk around the village" said Santi.

"But you have to rest first at San's house, you remember Mr. mantri's message, '" said Arya worried.

"Yes I remember, I'm sorry. But you also have to apologize to Grandma, because you were already angry," said Santi and Arya nodded their heads approvingly.

"Sir, I'm sorry because I spoke in a high tone to Grandma. But it's just because I'm worried about Santi Nek, I didn't mean anything" Arya said.

"It's okay, Grandma understands why you're acting like that. Yes you guys just continue chatting, Grandma wants to prepare dinner first yes," said Grandma Aminah, then immediately leave Arya and Santi

"But you're okay, aren't you San? You're not a sapper?" Arya asked who looked so worried and also considerate.

"Yes, I'm fine with Ar" replied Santi, although at that time the road seemed a little shake.

Then immediately Arya led Santi and took him to the front seat.

"Oh yes Santi, I have happy news for you" Arya said.

"Oh yeah? What's the news?" Santi asked curiously.

"I've applied for a loan at my place of work. So later if the loan is approved and I have received the money, I will immediately take you to the hospital in the city huh. I want to make sure that you are okay" said Arya who made Santi feel very surprised. It felt like he really did not want to go to the city, despite the reason for his health.
