The Substitute Woman on the First Night
Beautiful Briefs

Happy reading!

Time after time I kept passing in the holding cell. The longer I get used to living here. Moreover, the busyness at LFC makes me really have the motivation to move forward. Even I forgot how to cry because Reni and her fellow inmates really made me feel like I had a family of my own. Not to mention the existence of Bu Widya who is very good, she seems to be a surrogate mother for me. Not only believe because he gave LFC to me, but he also guided me a lot to become a better human after being free later. Yes, tonight is my last night in prison. Faster 1 year because I get remission as much as 4 times in every independence day during my time here. However, somehow there was a feeling of sadness that I felt towards my freedom day. Sad that I have to part with Reni who still has to serve one more year. He was the only friend closest to me since Hana first got out of prison. Our age is not much different. That's why I'm really comfortable telling him all my problems.

"Why aren't you asleep? Is it 11 o'clock?" In the middle of my mind that was still thinking about tomorrow, Reni who I had thought had gone to bed first sounded to call me.

"Eh, you haven't slept?"

"It's been, but I woke up." Reni began to tilt her body position to face me. "What do you think about? Not going to bed early let's get early."

"I don't know why I feel sad."

"Why sad Lho? You should be happy because you will be out of jail tomorrow. Don't be sad."

"I'm sad to have to separate from you and the friends here who are already kind to me. You're the ones who strengthened me during the worst phase of my life." For some reason, when I said that, my eyes started to get foggy. It felt so sad that it shook my heart.

"Are we not friends. So, it's appropriate that we support each other. After all, it's not just our support until you can be strong to serve the punishment so far, but also thanks to Delano, right?" Suddenly Reni hit her forehead. He seemed to remember something he might have forgotten. Even after saying that he immediately moved from his sleeping position, then took a parcel that he placed in the corner of the room.

"That's what, Ren?" I was still confused when I saw him put the parcel right next to me who was sitting while continuing to see it.

"It's from Delano. I'm sorry I forgot to give this to you."

"I think he forgot that tomorrow is my freedom day. Turns out he didn't forget, even sending this parcel to me."

"It opened quickly, I wonder." Reni who was so curious urged me to open the parcel immediately. A beautiful box-sized parcel wrapped in red gift paper with ribbon on it.

"What did Delano give me?" I continued to open it with curiosity that had taken hold of my mind.

"Well, he's very considerate of you. Oh yeah, what's in the letter? Let's read I'm curious!"

"Yes patient, Ren. I got the letter so you're enthusiastic."

Hearing my protest, Reni laughed for a while before she again urged me to read the letter immediately.

"Dear, Alisa. You how are you doing there? You must be happy today because tomorrow is your day of freedom. I'm also happy because you finally get to see the outside world again. But sorry, I haven't been able to pick you up. My S2 course was finished because here I could finish it in just one year, but I got a scholarship back to continue S3 and it took 3 years here. So, I can only go back to Indonesia in about two years. I hope you understand my situation. Along with this letter, I also gave you a stel of clothes as well as shoes, I hope you like it. Oh yeah, I want a little story with you. Here in addition to college, I have also started working at a large company and they are waiting for me to graduate S3 to occupy the position of CEO in his company. I was lucky to have that chance. Maybe this news makes you sad, but I really have no intention of ruining your happiness. I feel like I have to fight to be successful to make you happy. Hence, I hope you don't to think that I've forgotten you huh! Here I write my phone number, I hope you'll call me. Keep yourself there, Lissa!"

After reading the letter, somehow my tears were incessantly crying. Not only me, even Reni was also moved when she heard it.

"Delano is a very romantic guy. I'm jealous of you."

"But ...."

"Don't tell me you're still thinking about it. Like I said, love doesn't care about educational differences, Lissa. If Delano doesn't bother with it, why should you bother with it? You can still go to college if you want to? You are also 26 years old. So, I think you're still probably going to college. You have plenty of time and you don't have to be insecure about it."

I immediately grabbed Reni. Vanishing all the sadness that has stifled the chest. "Thank you, Ren. Thank you for always being so kind to me."

"We are friends. So, it's my job to always strengthen you when you're weak like this."

We also hugged each other. That tight hug seemed to strengthen me. In my heart, I am so grateful to be reunited with Reni. He is a very meritorious person in restoring my spirit, besides Delano and Hana.
