The Substitute Woman on the First Night
What a Weird Coincidence

Happy reading!

With a carefree step I descended the stairs. The look on my face was much more radiant than before, although my eyes were still a little damp from crying too much last night.

"I'll cook the best fried rice for Mas Denis." Upon arriving downstairs, I immediately directed my footsteps towards the kitchen with enthusiasm.

Upon arriving there, I really did not expect when I saw Almira seemed busy cooking with the help of Inah.

"Mira, what are you cooking?" I asked as soon as I arrived in the kitchen. The kitchen is quite spacious because the dining room in my house is also in the same room. Denis deliberately chose the design of the kitchen and dining room without a partition so that when I was cooking food for him, he could see me from the dining room.

"I cooked fried rice, brother." My eyes were shocked when I heard his answer. How is it possible, what Mas Denis wants is currently the same as what Almira cooked.

"Why is this a coincidence?" ask me to keep it in my heart.

"Already, Brother. Brother just sit with mom, soon my cooking is ripe!"

I turned to look at my mother who was sitting in one of the chairs in the dining room.

"I purposely made 5 servings for all of us to eat, Brother. So, you better sit down! Yeah, let's just say that during my stay in this house, I'll take the place of Brother to cook breakfast."

Hearing those words somehow made a sense of sprain instantly slip into my mind. It was like I heard Almira say something else. "Replace my position to cook .. What exactly do you want to say if you will replace my position in this house as Mas Denis' wife?" my mind held back the anger that began to disturb my calmness.

"Lissa, it's just here! You sit with me and let Mira cook!" Suddenly my mother's voice called me. It made me who was upset to think of Almira's words to see her instantly with the smile I forced.

"Yes, Mom." Not wanting to make a fuss in front of my mother, I finally chose to sit right next to her. "How's he sleeping, Mom? Sounded up last night." I'm starting to make small talk. Try to brush aside a moment of anger against Almira who had mastered me. It was possible that if there were no mother and Inah, I would have asked my twin sister directly about the purpose and purpose of cooking fried rice this morning, I would have asked her sister, moreover, Almira said that he also made fried rice not only for himself and his mother, but also for me and Mas Denis.

"You're comfortable, Lissa. Anyway, I'm glad to be staying here. Yeah, even though I still like to be sad when I remember our house burning."

Although my position with my mother was very close, somehow her words were not heard at all by me. I was just shaking too. Thinking of all the coincidences this morning that I found so awkward that suspicions began to pester me. "Why do I think they're playing me? Why is this coincidence really fitting? Back in the room, Mas Denis asked for fried rice and when I was going to cook for him, it turned out that Mira had already made fried rice for all of us," my mind began to think about all these coincidences with my mind in a mess.
