Not the Substitute Girl
Spanking Telak

Alea hugged her own body tightly. The girl's tears did not stop flowing. After being rescued from an incident that almost made him lose his life for the second time.

Two hours earlier, Alea screamed as her legs slipped, and felt her body drift, falling. The girl reflexively closed her eyes, but Xuan's shout made Alea reopen her net.

"Orion, you can't let him fall!" Xuan exclaimed in panic.

"Leave it! That was his choice. He wants to die, please!" orion's words were like daggers stabbing Alea in the heart. It hurts so much to hear the cruel words of Orion.

"Apardon me, Alea!" this time An made a sound, pleading.

"Let go! If he wants to die and let Sera's sacrifice go to waste." Orion said firmly.

Down there, Alea could only stare in horror at the height she was at. Once knocked down, he must be dead.

"Ask him what his decision is. Live as Sera or die as Alea. I can grant it!" Again, just the heartless sentences Alea heard. But dead? Alea still did not dare. And live as Sera, what the world will say.

"3...."

Alea looked up as Orion began to count. The girl couldn't believe that Orion would do that to her. An and Xuan's hand was getting stronger. Followed by the pleading gazes of the two men.

"2....."

"Alea...hurry up!" I screamed in panic. The man knew Orion had never messed with his words. Without them knowing, Orion was also worried, if Alea refused and chose to die, then the problem would be even greater. Two deaths at once.

"1.... Release her!"

"Wait!" Alea spoke with a breath of breath. His head started to get dizzy, almost ten minutes hanging under the blazing sun. Especially with the hanging position, it only rests on Xuan and An's handrails. Alea's condition is also unstable after a series of operations and recovery from yesterday's accident.

"What's your decision?" this time Orion stood between Xuan and An holding Alea's body.

"I want...."

"You what?!" firmly Orion.

"I'll live as Sera. I'll replace him." Alea said in despair. The four men looked at each other, until Alea felt Xuan and An pull her body. As soon as he reached the top, Orion himself greeted Alea. Rubbing Alea's body that did not intermittently collapsed in Orion's embrace.

That lyrical sobbing was still heard, as Orion flashed before Alea. Again, it looks indifferent, it doesn't matter.

"Why do you have to do this?" Alea asked. He thought why not explain to everyone that Sera died in an accident. They can ask the police to investigate the incident that day. And Alea was ready to be a witness.

"Because there's a lot of things he has to finish. Don't you think Sera's life is as simple as yours. You'll know when we get home."

The man sauntered away from before Alea. Leaving behind Alea's slow crying grew louder. He regretted why he met Sera that day. He regretted why he ever wanted what Sera had.

"I'm sorry, brother. I'm sorry" said Alea, the girl drowned her face between her knees. Alea felt that her life would no longer be the same from that day on.

Alea whose mindset is just filled with working to earn a lot of money and thinking of getting rich is definitely fun. It may soon change his mindset, as a few days later, after the doctor allows him to go home. Orion immediately took him to the Athaya family residence. A luxurious building that made Alea's eyes round. Something that he usually only saw on television and pictures, was now real before his eyes.

While doing healing treatment, Alea was lined up with information about the Athaya family, as well as the fact that Sera herself had only two months back from Milan, Italy, after being there for almost ten years.

"Why would he be in Milan if his family were all here?" Aleu asked spontaneously. A gaze full of warning, Alea received from Orion. The man had told her from the beginning that Alea should not ask about things that were not in the one document she had to study.

"The face is the same but the nature is 100% different." Whisper An on Axa, the north pole like Orion. Axa just kept silent expressionlessly hearing An's words.

Alea studied hard on the Athaya family tree. Recalling the name and face Xuan showed her. Even the girl had to study the plans of the Athaya family mansion. Where's Sera's room, living room, dining room. His grandfather's room, his parents' room. Yes, Sera still has a father and a mother.

"Father and Mother Sera must be very good," Alea said as she looked at the photo of Sera's father and mother. Also the face of a man who was on the screen of Sera's phone. The face of Sera's sister who died. Alea's eyes rounded reading the date of Sera's brother's death, ten years ago, by accident. There are many puzzles in the Athaya family, after Alea learns about the family

"You'll know how this family behaves to Sera after you get inside." Orion stood beside Alea, whose body was instantly cold hot. Afraid that his cover will be revealed.

"Just relax, I'm here." Alea turned to look at Orion who was now clutching his fingers.

"Are we not lovers now? Recall...Sera and I will get engaged." Orion's whisper at Alea's head.

The girl swallowed her hard spit. Why did the mansion before him seem like a hell to himself or Sera. Orion slowly led Alea into the Athaya residence. It was still early morning, allowing the whole family to have breakfast in the dining room.

"Do I have to say hello to them all?" asked Alea nervously.

"of course. Remember you're Sera not Alea!" Orion reaffirmed who Alea was at the moment.

Both went into the dining room. Where Alea was secretly recalling the floor plan of the house, with the faces of people she might meet for a short while early in the morning.

There was chatter from the dining table, although the atmosphere was very formal. There was no warmth in the Athaya family's breakfast. One pressure on Alea's finger grip, made the girl sigh. He should start his acting as Sera.

"Good morning, everybody." Says Alea with a slightly quivering voice. The girl was clearly feeling. Especially seeing the reaction of five people at the dining table. They were all staring at Alea with a hard look Alea could understand.

"Why do they look at Brother Sera so?"

"Oh.my grandchildren are home. How's vacation?" An old man Alea knew was that Sera's grandfather opened his two hands, as if asking Alea to hug him.

Alea walked slowly and hugged Grandpa Sera's body. Alea could feel the affection flowing through the old man's embrace.

Some time until Beni Athaya let go of his embrace. Alea turned, looking at Sera's mother. "Mother, Sera's home." Sapa Alea, then hugged Sera's mother whose body stiffened for a moment. The woman seemed to dislike the moment Alea hugged her.

"Are you okay?" the question rang out from Sera's father's mouth. Mario Athaya and Meida Athaya. Sera's father and mother.

"I don't think you remember coming home anymore." One tap was heard from the left side of the dining table. Darrel Monoarva Athaya, Sera's cousin and mother Mikaila Athaya.

Orion raised one eyebrow, looking at Alea who was slightly shocked by the family's attitude towards Sera. "This is only a small part. You will be even more surprised when you know what they are capable of doing. Even your own father and mother." Inner Orion while clenching his hands.

Alea swallowed her saliva again. The family's indifference to Sera was a crushing blow to her. One question suddenly flashed across Alea's head. "Has Sera never been happy in this family?"
