When Your Uncle Becomes the Substitute Bride
Chapters 74. Go away
The room becomes the most comfortable place to let out all the restrained cries. Vera covered her face, then reopened it and rubbed the tears violently.
He can't cry. Yeah, can't. Vera is not a weak woman, she can definitely get through this. Get out of bed, Vera took the phone she had slammed. Then he called one of his college friends.
“Halo, Ver? What's up?”
In order to get rid of the tightness in the chest, Vera exhaled a rough breath first and answered her friend's question.
“Where are you, Ke?” Vera asked back. Someone across there seemed silent for a moment.
“I in Bandung. As I said the other month, I live here with Grandma. What's the matter, Ver?”
“I'm going there!”
“Lah, why?”
“I'm going to Bandung. Intention to heal,” replied Vera.
“Seriously? Then you can stay at my Grandma's house.”
“Not yet, Le. Tomorrow I'll let you know if I go.”
“Oke.”
Vera severed the connection unilaterally. The girl threw the phone back to the bed.
Vera was silent, again her tears burst out. He had thought about this carefully, he would go to Bandung to calm down.
Maybe for others this is a trivial problem, especially if he is no one Befan. So there's no right to get angry or run over the man's fiancee. However, for Vera this was a failure. Again his heart hurt because of his own actions, opened his heart and broke his heart.
“Faster is better. I don't want any more heartache, so it's better tomorrow I leave,” he told himself.

Hamidah was surprised not to play to hear Vera's words. Without speaking first, his nephew even asked permission to go to Bandung. Hamidah was silent, without wanting to look at Vera because he felt disappointed.
“Maybe Aunty disappointed with me, but I just want to go there just to calm myself, kok, Tan,” said Vera.
“Yes, but why yourself? What's wrong with you, son?” Hamidah held both of Vera's shoulders.
“Custom, Aunt. Problem girl,” said Vera. He could still laugh, even though his heart ached considering the events of yesterday.
“Connect love?” guess Hamidah.
At once Vera nodded, unwilling to cover it up again. Hamidah seemed to be sighing harshly, he could not help Vera knowing what she felt about the heartbreak. It needs new air and a new place.
“Before go saying goodbye to Dera first,” pinta Hamidah.
“Which way again, you maksa.”
“Yeayy! Okay, Auntie, I'm going to Dera's house first. All would like to say goodbye to the twins too.”
Being a surrogate mother to his nephew, Hamidah was uncomfortable with Vera's attitude. The girl pretended to be fine in front of him, somehow behind him. Hamidah wanted to ask, but did not want to burden Vera first.

“Duo Z, Onty pampit make a trip to Bandung, yes?”
Vera was already at Dera's house, the girl went straight to see her cousin's son. Disturbing Zakira and Zanira who are sleeping in their respective boxes.
“What are you doing, anyway, Ver? Udalah, don't be weird,” cetus Dera.
“Dih. I want healing, Der. You know not healing?”
“Do not style, deh. What do you really have?” Dera kept pressing.
He knew how his cousin was. Must be a breakup. Yes, Dera had guessed, but Vera was not willing to confess either.
“Who just hurt you? Tell me, let me go to him.”
“Your style, Der. Yes, I said, yes. Kan, I told you I can't take long.”
“Ver!” dera Sentak.
“I'll still go, Dera. I need to calm my mind,” exclaimed Vera.
“Alright, I can't hold you back. Remember, yes, if there is anything directly phone me,” ingati Dera.
“Ready, Boss!”
After Vera's departure, Dera approached her daughters. She touched Zakira's cheek, her daughter squirming.
“Hihihi. Sorry Mother, yes, Darling.”
“Ontymu is very stubborn. Said don't go, instead go.” Dera grumbled back considering how stubborn Vera's head was. Huh. It sucks!
