Ashlyn, Not Substitute Love
Start to Calau

“Sister must not deny it, whatever the reason must be to keep this promise! Understand?” Alicia had to make sure her sister would never break this promise.

“Iya, Brother understands!” ashlyn said, showing a little smile.

The two hugged each other again, as if comforting and encouraging each other.

Alicia did not feel for herself how to be in Ashlyn's current position. However, at least Alicia could understand a little how her brother felt at this time.

“Kakak!” call Alicia without letting go of Ashlyn's embrace.

“Emmm, ..” Ashlyn only treats it with dehumidification.

“What Brother hates Daddy?”

Finally Alicia ventured to ask what had plagued her mind all along.

Sure enough, Ashlyn just kept quiet without intending to answer the question. Alicia could understand, so she decided to shut up and not ask anything more.

Ashlyn had been silent for a long time as if she was looking for the right answer to what she was feeling right now.

Then Ashlyn said, “Don't hate him too much, but to accept his existence now. Honestly, this time is very difficult for Sister to do.”

“What's the reason, because Dad has been ignoring us all this time? But actually Dad is not like that, it's just that the person who has been trusted to keep us secretly even betrayed him,” explained Alicia who unconsciously defended the father.

“Maybe like that, but honestly Big Brother can't understand any reason now! Moreover, Brother Axlyn is stuck with the mafia world also because of the interference of father,”, said Ashlyn who again showed his sadness.

“Definitely I don't want any of that to happen either. However, there seems to be no other choice, neither Father nor Brother Axlyn must have decided like that, because they want to protect us. They don't want to plunge us all into such a world.”

Again Alicia seemed to want to support the decision and reason that Vinno told her. For some reason, Alicia also wants Ashlyn to know what really happened.

Ashlyn finally smiled when she realized that her sister wanted a whole family, not divided as it is today.

“Alright, Brother understand! But Brother needs time to accept all this,” Ashlyn said.

“Aaah, .. Ma-meaning Licia isn't like that, sister! Licia only, _...”

“Nothing, Sister understands ‘kok good intentions Licia!” cut Ashlyn who doesn't want to put her sister in a state of misstep between choosing to side with her or their parents.

“What else did Mom and Dad explain to you when Brother wasn't around? Can Licia tell Big Brother about what they told Licia?”

Ashlyn even asked her sister to tell her what their parents said.

“Emm, .. Wouldn't Brother be angry, if Licia told me everything?” alicia asked who hesitated to tell him.

“No! Tell me everything so that you can consider everything more clearly,” replied Ashlyn reassured her sister.

Feeling that the older sister had no problem with the story she was going to tell, Alicia began to say everything she heard from her parents. Ashlyn seemed to listen carefully, even though in reality in her heart and mind at that time it was only about Luca.

“Why is it now like this?” inner Ashlyn.

“I hate him so much, even he told my mother that all this time he loved was Brother Axlyn! Then what exactly do I mean for her?”

“Why did you approach me just because my face resembled that of Brother Axlyn? Why did you just make me a replacement for the woman you love?”

“Really, my heart aches and hurts considering that I am just a substitute in your eyes! I sincerely open my heart to love you, but what I get in return. Ashlyn, just a surrogate! And there will never be more than that!”

At least Alicia didn't question how she felt about Luca at the moment. Because Ashlyn herself can not answer it, because there are times when she feels very hateful Luca who considers himself only as a substitute for her brother, Axlyn.

On the one hand, Ashlyn yearns for the hospitality and care that Luca always gives her, whereupon she will lend her shoulder to him to let go of all forms of his obstinacy.

Now there is no place for Ashlyn to complain or ask for protection from the figure of a Luca. All that remained in his heart were the wounds and disappointments he felt so deeply.

Time quickly passed, even until almost night before Ashlyn and Alicia had not returned at all.

Honestly, it makes Luca feel more guilty and worried about the situation of the brothers who left in a state of anger to him.

Truly, Luca was really afraid of bad things happening to the two girls, even though for now there was no dangerous movement from Simon and Joshua.

While on the other hand, Luca himself was also feeling turmoil and turmoil in his heart. What Ms. Hanna said was true. Unknowingly she had hurt so deeply in Ashlyn's heart.

From the beginning he approached her because her face was so similar to Axlyn, but never for a second did she consider Ashlyn as a substitute Axlyn in her eyes or heart.

“What should I do now to get an apology from him? To explain everything, that I never once made himself a replacement for Axlyn?” the troubled inner Luca thought of a way to approach and talk to Ashlyn like he used to.

“Gosh, why if it has to do with Ashlyn my genius brain is of no use at all” Luca clucked in frustration with the workings of his own brain.

“What are you thinking about until so late at night, Luca?”

Suddenly Papah Rayden's voice surprised him, he had already stood behind him earlier and listened to everything he muttered in frustration.

Realizing his absurd behavior noticed by his papa since earlier made Luca a little embarrassed to scratch his head which was actually not itchy.

“Papah, ..” said Luca who instead of answering just silence and bow his head.

“Yes, it's Papah! Aren't you interested in answering the question Papah asked just now?” urged Rayden who was a little upset by the reaction of his eldest son.

“It's not so, Pah! It's just that Luca is embarrassed to say it to Papah,” Luca replied innocently.

“Then why? Aah, .. Surely you're thinking of a way to get Ashlyn's apology right now, but your genius brain can't work together at all, can it?” guess Rayden.

Exactly, a hundred for Papah Rayden who managed to guess what Luca was thinking. Very much so, Luca exclaimed like that. However, what a shame he had to admit was that his genius brain was completely useless at a time like this.
