Make Me His Substitute
Rendra
"Anty, why don't we just go into brother's house, Zel, you'll meet Om Aga." Zeline protests as Amara's car drives away from home.
"Because we shouldn't waste any longer, Zel. Anty Gatha and Anty Mara's friends are already waiting for us at the appointment place." Agatha's reply took over Amara's answer.
Zeline's lips pursed. Though he had been very eager to see the face of Aga who looked very handsome in his eyes.
"Yes, yeah." Zeline replied that she did not want to protest anymore. He was afraid that too much protest would make Amara upset and return him to the home of his parents.
Amara, who was only a listener, sighed in hearing Agatha's reply. Actually he also really wanted to see the face of Aga, but because Agatha forbid it, Amara so can not do anything.
"Gatha, does Brother Aga know that you're going with me this morning?" Ask Amara later.
"Know, I also told Kak Aga if we were going to meet Rendra."
"Then how does Kak Aga respond?" Amara's face was very excited as she asked.
Agatha rubbed Amara's arm. "Not as expected. My brother's just a berohria."
Amara thins lips. Already so far he struggled to get Aga's heart but it never seemed to work as well.
"Don't be sad Mara. There are still many ways to get Kak Aga's heart." Agatha cheers.
Amara smiled as she nodded her head. He believes that the efforts he is doing at this time will not betray the results.
Amara's car continues to drive towards a meeting place with a man named Rendra. After nearly forty minutes of travel, Amara's car finally stopped at a park inside the campus where Amara and Agatha were educated a few years ago.
"It's been a long time since we've been here, yes." Amara said after closing her car door.
Amara nodded in agreement to Agatha's words. Both of them held Zeline's hand and then stepped towards the empty seat.
"Where's Rendra, why hasn't he arrived yet?" Amara asked in surprise because the time of their departure and Rendra was almost the same but Rendra had not arrived yet.
"It looks like it's still on the road. Let's just wait a minute." Answer Agatha.
Amara nodded in agreement. While waiting for Rendra to arrive, Amara chose to take Zeline for a walk around the park while looking at the matoa tree that was fruiting.
"Anty, Mola wants the fruit Anty!" Point Maura at the fruit of Matoa that looks tantalizing in his eyes. "But... What fruit can Anty take?" Zeline continued to remember he did not know who the owner of the matoa fruit.
"Could only. The fruits here are freely taken by anyone who comes to visit Zel." Answer Amara.
"Asik... Then get it for Zel ya Anty!" Pinta Zelines.
Amara didn't agree to it. Moreover, there is no pole around them that can make it easier to take the fruit matoa.
"Mara.." The gentle voice of the man calling her name made Amara turn her head towards the back where the man was.
"Renra!" Amara cried with a cheerful face.
The smile on Rendra's face grew even more to see the face of his heart. "Over time you don't see, it's getting pretty, Amara." Praise Rendra who makes Zeline smile shyly to hear it even though it is not her who is praised by Rendra.
