Forced to be second
Dare

This afternoon, Carnation was so excited, because she was invited to lunch by her mother-in-law, plus Anyelir knew that Laura could not come. Although Mayang did not know that Anyelir was not his son-in-law, but could establish a close relationship with Mayang, it was more than enough for Anyelir.

“Assalammualaikum Ma'am,” Carnations kiss Mayang's hand politely.

“Mother has been waiting a long time?” ask Anyelir not good.

“Not yet Nak, new Mom comes,” replied Mayang with a smile that continues to expand. They started chatting to break the awkwardness, waiting for the food to come. While Carnation was chatting casually with Mayang, suddenly someone who Carnation did not expect his arrival appeared.

“Bu?” Laura immediately sat down to join Mayang and Carnation.

“Thank God you came, son,” Laura deliberately did not tell you that she could come, so that she could meet with Carnations.

“Iya Ma'am, I deliberately came because I also wanted to meet Anyelir, who had saved my dear mother,” Laura as if to show Carnations, that she was so close to her mother-in-law, Mayang. And as if to say, that here who really became Mayang's daughter-in-law was only herself, Laura.

“Bu, I'm sorry to go to the toilet first huh?” after the carnation, she rushed to the toilet and Laura followed.

“How? You've seen it, haven't you?” said Laura who is now standing next to the Carnation that is reflecting.

“Means?” Carnations pretended not to know what Laura said.

“Me and Mom, you see? I'm only her daughter-in-law and the only daughter-in-law in mom's eyes, ” Laura just stared at Carnations through the mirror. The carnation that heard all of that just smiled.

“Don't forget, I won Devan's heart,” Carnation turned to stare at Laura boldly, “should Laura's sister be more careful now, because after mom recovers, surely all will be uncovered,” this time Mayang will not stay silent as Laura tries to brainwash Carnations and wants to attack Carnations through feelings. Laura looked at Carnations in annoyance, she began to be provoked with emotion.

“It seems, I was too kind, to the point that you became a shameless woman. Remember Anyway, I am also Devan's wife and I am entitled to her, not just you!” jolt Laura.

“Shouldn't sister Laura be ashamed? Brother left sister Devan right on the wedding day, and unhappily Brother came to ask back?” ask Carnation.

“You!” Laura was about to slap Carnations, but Carnations immediately brushed Laura's hand away.

“I'm not that weak,” said Anyelir and he left Laura just like that.

‘I'll show you who you're dealing with, Laura's inner’, her hands clenched tightly as if she's gathering her emotions.

Carnations and Laura returned to the table, and as if nothing had happened, the food had arrived, and they began to eat lunch with occasional chats.

“Anyelir, is it a wedding ring?” suddenly Mayang asked about the ring worn by Carnations.

“Uhuk ... uhuk ..” by surprise, Carnations choked, and was about to take a drink.

“You took a wrong drink Carnation, the day is mine,” said Laura, informing her that the drink held by Carnation is hers.

“Oh sorry,” Carnation put back and drank hers.

“Looks like you like to take someone else's property,” Laura quipped blatantly, making Mayang look directly at Laura.

“Laura, keep talking to you,” Mayang tried to advise his daughter-in-law, but Laura seemed reluctant.

“It's not so Carnation? You like it right, taking someone else's?” asked Laura, making Carnations confused to have to express how.

“Laura stop, you make Nak Carnation uncomfortable, after all just a matter of drinking,” Mayang who does not know anything, think maybe Laura does not like because Carnations take Laura's drink.

“I'm fine Mom,” Carnation is still trying to smile, in front of Mayang.

“Of course you're okay, because here I am the victim,” once again, Laura's words make Carnations a worry. Carnations are afraid if until Laura says things that make Mayang surprised.

“You mean Laura?” Mayang was suspicious, inexplicably Mayang felt that every word of Laura contained a meaning that he himself did not know what it meant.

“Mother wants to know, what secrets are hidden by Mother's son?” laura asked, this time Carnations looked at Laura with a pleading gaze, so that Laura would not say anything to Mayang.

“What Mother doesn't know?” hunch Mayang said, that this is not a good thing.

“Mother's son has been wishing me, even if Mom wants to know, I married in series,” finally Laura said the thing she should have hidden, Anyelir lamenting Mayang, make sure her mother-in-law's condition is okay.

“Mother knows? This woman is my madam, she is Devan's second wife,” Laura said, Carnations staring at Laura with a look of disbelief, how can Laura say this, while he himself knows how the current condition of Mayang, which is still not stable.

“Be-really?” Mayang was so surprised by Laura's confession, “i-it must have been a dream,” Mayang shook his head, he was sure his son would not do anything, to the person he loved so much.

“This is proof Bu,” Laura showed a wedding photo, Devan with Carnations. Mayang shook his head, he felt deceived by Devan and Carnation.

“Bu, a-I ..”

Apaakaakkk!!! The sound of a loud slap, Mayang's hand landed smoothly on the left cheek of the Carnation, making the Carnation who originally wanted to explain to Mayang, about this marriage, become silent. The heat in the cheeks of Carnations, not comparable to the heartache that Carnations felt by the words of Mayang after this.

“I don't want to have a daughter-in-law other than Laura, because you're just a cheap woman, a destroyer of people's households, and you're no other woman who's just after my son's treasure !” mayang exclaimed, at once Anyelir's chest felt tight, his tears flowed profusely over the cheeks of Anyelir. It was a very entertaining show for Laura.

‘If you know as fun as this, I should her do this earlier,’ inner Laura smile devil, “soal Devan, can I think later, her inner’ again.

“Bu, I know, Mom will not be able to accept me, and I know what Mom thinks, but believe me Mom, I'm not like what I thought,” Carnation tried to convince Mayang, I'm not, they are in the VIP room, so other visitors do not hear and do not see what is really happening.

“Don't call me Mom! Since I am not your Mother, I am also disgusted to be called Mother by a woman like you!!” mayang's refusal was so painful. Laura came forward, carrying the juice in her hand, she approached and pointed the glass at the head of the Carnation. However, Laura had not had time to spill her drink, a hand clutched tightly onto Laura's wrist and forcefully snatched the glass.

“De-Devan?” lirih Laura, she did not expect that Devan would be in front of her at this time, because as far as Laura knew, Devan should be outside the city. Devan helps Carnations to stand up.

“Devan?” Mayang also could not believe, his son was in front of him at this moment.

“You all right?” Devan asked the state of Carnation, this made Mayang not like, because Mayang thought Devan ignored him.

“Sign in the car,” Devan's word, but Anyelir shook his head slowly.

“I have to explain to Mom first,” pinta Anyelir while sobbing.
