The Pawn of Stepmother
The Replaceable Loss

“Dad...dad...” heard a shrill cry that made Rifyal aware that the Inca had awakened from his stupor. Soon the man placed the baby in a special cot belonging to the baby and approached the Inca.

“Hey...are you aware? Thank goodness.” said Rifyal.

The man moved rubbing the Inka's forehead. He saw the eyes of the wife who looked teary at this time. Sadly, he felt it clearly. Which child is not sad when the father leaves him alone.

There was no sound that the Inca let out just tears that just fell. Rifyal hugged him tightly kissing his wife's forehead.

“Crying. I'm here with you.” he said making the Inca no longer able to hold tight in his chest.

Rifyal let out a rough breath. His tears also pooled wanting to cry to feel the pain that his wife felt.

***

Three days later, the Inca were discharged from the hospital. She sat at home after her return today with her husband and son. Instead of going home to the husband, Rifyal who understood the circumstances of his wife chose to bring the Inca home to the father-in-law. Where the house looks silent after the departure of Ferow and also Love with Anggun who went nowhere.

“Come breakfast first, Darling.” said Rifyal gave the porridge he had made.

The Inca obeyed the words of her husband. He enjoys the porridge that Rifyal feeds. Although clearly seeing the fragile gaze of the wife, as much as possible Rifyal gives affection to the wife.

“Rif, can you hold baby?” Ajeng who just came to bring food into the house is now out to the Inca and also Rifyal. He knew the Rifyal wanted to pay attention to the Inca, and it was not possible if the baby would whine occasionally to be noticed as well.

Ajeng went around to the park around the house leaving the couple.

“Rif, may I request to father's grave after this?” ask the Inka expectantly.

And in the afternoon the Inca were in the tomb with Rifyal. He smiled at his father's headstone. No more crying hysterically like yesterday and the days before. He just put a bouquet of flowers on the belly of the father. Inka looked at the handsome man beside her who was now also looking at her.

“Don't stay with me either. You are the only one of mine.” Seeing the husband nod, Inka tightened her embrace.

The departure of the father who greatly made the Inca lost replaced with the presence of the baby and also Rifyal who will accompany him to old age.

Without them knowing, if in the residence belonging to Agung Mahen precisely Gia came by shouting disrespect. Although she realized she was wrong, Gia did not want her position to be replaced.

“Inka, get out! Inca out!” The woman's voice echoed in the house that she thought the husband would inhabit with his new wife. However, when he heard the sound of Gia's screams coming out was only a servant he knew very well.

“Where is that woman?” Ketus Gia asked and passed by the servant. Gia really wanted to teach the Inca a lesson.

If when he is abroad he can't do much, this is the time. Gia's gonna make the Inca give her back hers. Divorce does not happen in Gia's eyes. Rifyal is still his.
