Become Him
Lies for lies

“Kak, please make up-in me briefly dong.” Pinta Rachel on Fany playing on her laptop.

Rachel was already sitting upright on her bed and leaning against the stacked pillow.

“Bby. You want another video call with your family?” Fany immediately approached Rachel with a make up pouch in her hand.

Rachel always asks to be dressed before a video call with her mother or sister. She doesn't want to look pale and sick when Ruby and Eva see her on camera.

“Iya. Brother Ruby said he wanted video call.” I'm Rachel.

“They must be very worried because you suddenly go around like gini huh?” Fany started to get closer to Rachel and sat down next to Rachel who was already sitting on her bed.

He pulled out some makeup tools to disguise Rachel's pale face.

“Yes, I never travel out of town without the closest people. So surely they are worried.” I'm Rachel.

During the treatment for several days, Rachel admitted to going out of town for filming purposes. Only with crew who come. Eva had questioned whether Nata accompanied her or not, Rachel said that Nata had an important job so he could not accompany her. With Nata's position as director of a company, Eva and Ruby of course believe.

“I used to be that too. When my mother was still there, she was very attentive to me. I was called often, sent messages. I used to think that Gini really had a mother. Everything in question and should be explained with new details they trust.”

“But after my mother was gone, I realized that all her attention was very meaningful. I lost a lot Chel, lost someone who always bring ngingetin I can not be late to eat.”

While powdering Rachel, Fany smiled crazily. It felt like just yesterday his mother asked him the news but in fact it has been six years since the woman left his life.

“Eatya, you're lucky to still have your mom and sister. He also loves you very much. Sometimes I feel jealous. If I'm sick alone, no one wants to eat or take medicine."

"Yes, but I realize that everyone's time is different. I don't have a mother doesn't mean there's nothing I can be grateful for. There you are I am so grateful, there is something I can possessive-in.” Fany chirped with a small smile at Rachel.

Rachel smiled, staring for a moment at the pair of teary eyes. Now Rachel understands, Fany's attitude is very motherly because it inherits the attitude of her mother who was said to be possessive. That was why he could take good care of Rachel for days, filled with patience.

“I'm also lucky to have Brother Fany. Sister fany same as sister Ruby, very dear to me.” Timpal Rachel while smiling.

“Pastile. You are a very easy person to love.” Fany smiled slightly at the end of her sentence.

Rachel became pensive, even if the thought was owned by Nata and Martha. His life will be very happy.

But unfortunately, everyone always has their own reasons that make him love or hate someone.

Rachel's phone ringtone rang out her daydream.

“Let me takein.” Fany immediately grabbed Rachel's phone on the table beside Rachel's bed.

“Still brother.” Reply Rachel.

He had the spirit of raising his call but then he paused when the name on the screen of his phone was Nata's name. Long live, this man again contacted her while Rachel was thinking about it.

Instead of answering, Rachel flipped her phone and put it under her hand.

“Why?” ask Fany.

Rachel did not reply, but simply turned her agitated face away.

“He called you again?” guess Fany. He had guessed that Rachel was nervous like this, who contacted him must be Nata.

“I still can't talk mediocrely with him.” I'm Rachel. He looked at his own hands clutching each other.

“Take your time Chel, no one makes you realize call him.” Fany rubbed Rachel's arm gently to encourage her.

"Thank you brother." Rachel was so grateful that Fany understood her so much.

Fany just smiled slightly, rubbing Rachel's back before then opting out of the room to give Rachel some time.

If the pilgrimage is alone like this, Rachel recalls her relationship with Nata. For the past few days, Nata has been in contact with Rachel. Calling, texting, and this guy looks increasingly frustrated. It could be seen from the sentences that pleaded with Rachel.

There were about seventy-two messages that Rachel had received from Nata and Rachel had not read much less answered one. Only occasionally did he see a notification of Nata's message that read,

“Where are you? Are you all right?” that was the only notification Rachel read.

Rachel let out a deep sigh, was it possible that Nata was really worried about her or just a question of formality like their marriage status all along.

The next ringtone, made Rachel stunned. He hesitated to see it, but then he kept checking it.

“Iya kak.” Say hello to Rachel when the video is connected.

“Dek, busy again ya?” ruby's voice was heard.

“Em, no way. I broke again, brother. Brother how are you?”

“Good. Sorry I disturbed you. Last morning, when did you come home? You want to make adek rawon.” Ruby asked who was looking at her sister on her phone screen.

I haven't seen Rachel in a long time. It feels so missed.

“Aaaahhh to..” Rachel whining spoiled. It feels like saliva directly gathered in the cavity of his mouth to feel the savory soursop that he really likes.

“Iyaa, so be informed as soon as you go home. Later I'm the same mom who went to the adek place if adek is no longer busy.”

“Iya kak.” Rachel could not wait to get home.

“Excuse me, I want to give you medicine.” The nurse's voice came from the entrance.

“Hah, i-iya.” Rachel was shocked.

“Who is deck? Adek take medicine?” Ruby who was making a flower bucket immediately turned her attention to Rachel.

“Ng-no brother. This is vitamin doang.” Rachel had to lie.

“You should be doping in vitamin so, surely the work makes very tired ya.” Ruby looked at Rachel worriedly.

Rachel smiled crazily. Suddenly tears gathered in the corner of her eyes. It was sad to see Ruby's face worrying about her while she was lying.

“Neither, ordinary. It's just preparation, so it's not easy to get sick." Rachel is back.

"Sister, yes first. Later if you come home, adek kabarin brother.” Rachel was forced to end her call because the nurse was already waiting for her next door.

“Oh yes. Adek keep Health yes, do not get tired.” Ruby Messages.

“Iya brother. Greetings to mamah. bye..”.

Ruby's just gonna talk again, Rachel hung up first.

“This is the child why? I don't usually talk to you about gini.” Ruby muttered that was looking at Rachel's face on her phone screen.

“What's up brother?” asked Eva just got home from the market. In his hand he carried a lot of groceries.

“Em not mah, this is adek. I had a video call with him but I felt that there was something else he covered from us.” Ruby said while thinking.

“He should even take vitamins for doping. Is she sick huh?” Ruby with her growing concern.

“Are we going to Bogor? Mamah was also wary of the feeling of kok kurusan.” Eva remembers her video call with Rachel yesterday.

“I called Calvin first huh. I want the location of the shoot.” Ruby immediately checked Calvin's contacts.

“Iya kak.”

In her place, Rachel still gave one hand to the nurse to be injected vitamins and drugs through infusion. He also cried with a cry that was hard to stop.

“What is the injection of the drug painful?” the nurse asked as she rubbed Rachel's arm in worry.

“Ngak sus.” Rachel's voice stammered. What he cried was not his hand but his guilt for lying to Ruby.

“Good, if later his hand feels sore, can be compressed with this yes.” The nurse put a piece of compress in the package.

Rachel simply nodded then regained her sobbing after the nurse left.

“Huhuhu .. sorry I sis. I kept lying brother same mamah.” Rachel covered her face with both hands. He was crying alone.

He was very sorry for lying to his mother and brother. But he had no other choice. Because talking to Ruby and Eva requires a lot of courage
