The Exchanged Bride

The Exchanged Bride
I Hate you, Brother!


"Would you like to come here? I won't forgive you!" haira exclaimed while staring intently.


"Who needs your forgiveness. I'm just here to tell you all my heart has been about you. You are the person I hate the most in this world!" Resya stared intently full of hatred.


"Whatchu mean? So that was just acting?" Haira stared in disbelief.


"of course. If I don't apologize, everyone will hate me!" Resya walked closer and pushed Haira's chest backwards.


"What's your problem?" ask Haira.


"Because you're loved by everyone. Ever since you were a kid you always got what you wanted. You're smart, independent, and easy for everyone to like. Mom and Dad love you more than me. They never scolded you but scolded me often. And Ziko, I liked it first but instead you got it. Do you know what it's like to be a shadow? I've always been that perfect shadow of you!!" resya shouted full of emotions.


Haira was surprised to hear Resya's words. Though all this time he always defended Resya when his parents scolded him. He also helps Resya with her college assignments but Resya stops college and chooses to enjoy their parents' possessions for her.


"How can you say all this? I always loved you. I always give up on your happiness. I even admitted that the mistake you made was my fault. But is this how you retaliate?" A thread of tears drenched Haira's cheeks.


"Hahaha, I deliberately made all those mistakes so that you would continue to defend and love me until the moment I did this you would be crushed to the brink." Resya smiled cunningly.


Haira could only cry hearing the honesty from Resya's mouth. Resya was right, now her heart was very broken. She had thought that Resya and Ziko's scandal was an accident because of the love that had suddenly appeared. But it turns out all this has been Resya plan for the sake of destroying her own siblings for the sake of his sense of iron all this time.


"And you know what's interesting about this, I get a well-established and rich man while you get a poor orphaned man. Hahaha, just look at how you live after this. You'll see my wedding news exposed in the media as Atmajaya's mistress and you're just the wife of a poor man!" Resya smiled triumphantly.


Haira fell down. He already had no strength to be angry anymore as the pain was more piercing his heart.


Resya comes out of her room and meets Ziko who is chatting with Harsya. It seemed that he was apologizing for his unworthy deeds and had hurt Haira.


"Darling!" Resya approached Ziko and hugged her arm.


"Resya, from today on you will stay with Ziko. I hope you don't embarrass the father and mother there," said Harysa, who warned of her daughter's spoiled nature.


"Yes, I'll calm down. I will be a good wife to Ziko" Resya said confidently.


After that Resya and Ziko went to Ziko's house to enjoy their first night even though in fact for that part they had done it many times before marriage.


Haira had already come out of the dressing room. She was wearing a beautiful and sexy dress. She had already polished her face with makeup so that her tear marks were not visible. Of course she didn't want to see everyone think she was crying for marrying poor Aiden even though she wasn't ready to live a simple life.



Aiden who saw her only smiled faintly. At least he also did not show his sense of coercion for this matchmaking.



"We're going to have your wedding reception in a week. I ask you to take care of your health" Harsya told the two of them.


"What about them?" ask Haira.


"They'll hold a pseudo reception after you guys. I know you'd mind if your reception were combined, Dad" Harsya said with a concerned look. She hugged Haira and stroked her hair.


In Haira's memory


"Sister, I want to wear this dress, you just wear this one." Resyas.


Haira nodded and smiled.


"Sister, please tell father and mother I left with you last night. They'll be mad when they find out I'm not coming home when they're out of town." Resyas.


Haira nodded and smiled.


"Son, my money's up. Give me the money, I'll go shopping." Resyas.


Haira gave her monthly allowance to Resya. After all he still had a salary as long as he worked in his father's company.


"Sister, I want to go on vacation with my friends. Please persuade them to let me go." Resyas.


Haira wholeheartedly complies with Resya's request.


Harsya took off her embrace and saw that Haira's cheeks had been moistened by tears. Haira's eyes were filled with disappointment and sadness. Compared to Laras, Haira was much closer to Harysa's father. Because actually Laras is the mother continued Haira and Resya's birth mother. However, Laras loved Haira who was basically kind and obedient. Unlike the spoiled and unruly Resya.


Laras approached Haira and hugged her. "Mother's son, you're strong huh. I believe there is wisdom in every event. You're our proud son. You are worth hurting. I'm sorry, dear, I know you have a sincere heart." Laras breathes his embrace and kisses Haira's forehead.


Haira nodded and shed her tears. "I love my mother very much. Thank you for taking care of me and giving me an abundance of affection."


"You're mom's jewel, son. Don't cry anymore, baby." The barrel wiped away Haira's tears and hugged her again.


Haira gets into a taxi that will take her to Aiden's house. A house that is simple and small. Although Haira was not used to living in such a place, she would try it for the sake of her father and mother. Maybe this was all he could do for them.


On the way, Haira looked awkward. He had met with Aiden once when talking about Resya and Aiden's match. However, if seen Aiden looks authoritative and tends to be silent like a person of cold character.


"Aiden, what's your job?" ask Haira.


Aiden turned his head and it made Haira a little afraid that Aiden would be offended.


"I'm just a regular employee at the Alexan Group. But take it easy, my salary is enough to give you nutritious food and decent clothing" Aiden said.


"Oh, so. I'm sorry I'm a little sassy" said Haira.


"It's okay. You're my wife, you should know what my job is" Aiden said with a flat face.


'Oh, my God, can't she smile?' Inner Haira.


"But until now no one has seen what the CEO of Alexan Group looks like. Have you seen her?" ask Haira who is actually also curious about what the face of the leader of the big company is.
