Cunning Plan

Elsa stared at the letter with a gaze that was difficult to decipher, slowly, a small smile appeared on her face.

"Good, my plan worked, I can master this alone, including Adrian," Elsa whispered. It turns out that this was all his plan, but Alden is not a part of it. Elsa deliberately put stimulants in Alesha's drink, and she had prepared a man who was waiting in one of the rooms. However, Elsa really needs to go to the bathroom, and she loses track of Alesha. At first, Elsa thought all her plans were over, but when she found out that Alesha was pregnant, she knew that her plan had worked, even though it was different from her expectations.

"Who do you think is the father of the child Elsha is carrying?" Elsa thought.  But now that she has to focus on the letter she's holding, Elsa has to look surprised.

"Mom and dad!" Elsa ran out of Alesha's room, and her parents, who were sitting there waiting for their two daughters to have breakfast together, were surprised to hear Elsa's screams.

"Elsa? what's wrong, dear?" he asked worriedly.

"Sis Alesha, Daddy." Elsa sobbed.

"Alesha why?"  Queen and Reyhan asked simultaneously.

"Sis Alesha left, I've tried looking in her room, but she's not there, and all her clothes aren't there, I just found this letter," Elsa said, showing the letter she found.

"W-what?  Alesha?"  Ratu held her head, which felt heavy, after that, she fainted because she was shocked to hear the news of Alesha's escape.

"Mom!".

Now, Alesha is already at the airport, she has sold all of her valuables and changed her phone number. Alesha is really determined to go away from his family, because he doesn't want to embarrass them. The plan is for Alesha to go to America. With the money she has saved, Alesha hopes that she can get a job soon.

"Goodbye, Mommy and Daddy, goodbye, Adrian, sorry I hurt all of you, but it will hurt more if I stay here,' Alesha thought sadly. He stepped out with a heavy heart, from now on he will live independently.

Adrian came to Alesha's residence in a hurry, he didn't know why Alesha's parents suddenly asked him to come with his parents too. For some reason, Adrian also felt very bad.

"Uncle? Aunt?" Adrian shook hands with Reyhan and the Queen politely.

"Mr. Dika, Mrs. Anita? welcome," Reyhan greeted the Wibisono family politely. There was a tinge of worry that was very clearly visible on the faces of Reyhan and also the Queen. How could they not? Their eldest daughter, Alesha, is now somewhere, and they also don't know for sure what caused Alesha to run away. If Alesha really doesn't love Adrian, why didn't Alesha come clean from the start? because so far, the relationship that exists between them has not been forced by the slightest family.

"What's going on, Uncle? Aunt?" Adrian seemed to know that something was wrong with his girlfriend's parents.

"Please, Son Adrian," Reyhan handed over the letter written by Alesha.

"W-whatalesha ran away?" asked Adrian to make sure.

"That's right, son," Reyhan replied wearily.

"Why Mr. Reyhan and Mrs. Felly? what happened?"  I think that's what the Wibisono family asked. but of course Alesha's parents could not answer, because even during these few days, their relationship was fine.

"So, what about the engagement? It's only a matter of days, and we can't just cancel it," said Anita, who didn't accept it.

"W-we're sorry, but," Felly was also confused, how to solve this problem.

"Sorry everyone," Amidst everyone's confusion, Elsa arrives.

"If you wish, and it's not a problem. I am willing, replacing Sis Alesha, to get engaged to Sis Adrian," Elsa said with such an innocent face.

"Elsa? are you sure?" asked the Queen to make sure.

"Yes, Mom, I'm sure," Elsa replied firmly.

"Of course I'm sure, because this is everything I want," thought Elsa.

"That's much better than this engagement having to be canceled," Anita answered quickly.

"Mom." Adrian was about to protest, but neither Anita nor Dika gave her space.

"We didn't ask for your opinion, Adrian," said Dika.

"Okay, this problem has been resolved. At least we hope that Elsa will be much better than Alesha and much more responsible," said Dika, to Elsa.

"Thanks for the trust, uncle." Elsa said that, in her heart, she smiled proudly, because she had won from Alesha.

'From now on, and from this second, everyone will only show their concern for me, there will be no more Alesha. And slowly but surely, they will forget about you, Alesha,' thought Elsa with a devilish smile.

Before leaving to go home, Adrian took the time to talk with Elsa, the woman who should be his sister-in-law but will now have the status of being his future fiancée. However, Adrian has to get used to Elsa's existence.

"I thank you, because you are willing to make a sacrifice," said Adrian to the girl who was now sitting beside him.

"You're welcome, Sis, I'm also sorry on behalf of Sis Alesha," Elsa whispered.

"Never mind, don't mention his name, I'm already disappointed with his actions. And besides, it's he who did wrong, not you, Elsa," Adrian looked at Elsa. This was the first time Elsa felt Adrian's attention and stare. because usually, Adrian's gaze would only be on Alesha alone.

'Now that things are slowly starting to change, I usually can only admire Kak Adrian, and can only hope that one day Kak Adrian will also look at me, the way he looked at Alesha. However, this time I really feel it, even though Adrian can't look at me as deeply as he looks at Alesha, at least he wants to see me, and thinks I exist,' thought Elsa.

"I promise, I won't mention her name, if it really makes you uncomfortable," said Elsa. She acted like a very submissive woman.

"That's much better," answered Adrian.

'And it's also much faster for you to forget Alesha,' Elsa thought, smiling slyly.

Alesha left, and Elsa came as a hero to replace her sister. The engagement party is really going to happen, in fact, everything has been carefully prepared. Alesha's parents are still looking for her and asking Alesha's friends, but the answers are the same. They don't know where Alesha is.

Now that Elsa is being made up, she is wearing a peach-colored dress with knee length. The Sabrina dress, which features Elsa's smooth shoulders, further shows her feminine side. Queen, praising the beauty of the princess. However, there was still sadness evident on her face. She thought of the eldest princess, who didn't know where she was yet.

"Elsa, how beautiful are you, son?" praising the Felly, she approached the princess, who had just finished dressing.

"Thank you, Mom." Elsa answered, while showing her sweet smile.

"I'm sorry, you have to face this, Sorry because you have to make sacrifices," Felly felt guilty, because she thought Elsa had to do this, for the good name of her family.

"Never mind, the important thing now is Mommy. Pray for Elsa, I hope this is the best decision. And hopefully, wherever Sis Alesha is, she is in good condition," Elsa said wisely. But behind his wise words, there is a jealous heart.

"Thank you, dear," the Queen held her youngest daughter's fingers.

'Don't thank Mom, because this is my wish. I want to have Adrian, the man I love. But unfortunately, Sis Alesha stole Sis Adrian's attention from me, and instead got Sis Adrian's love. But now I'm calm, because I can take it all back, Adrian's love, and your affection will be completely mine,' Elsa thought, smiling slyly.

"Okay, now let's go to the venue." says the Felly.

The engagement ceremony went smoothly, although there might have been some confusion, because Alesha was not the one who stood up to be Adrian's fiancé. However, it does not bother me. After the engagement ceremony, in the following days, Adrian spent more time with Elsa, with the excuse that they could get closer and get to know each other. Elsa was so happy, because, finally, what she wanted all this time was achieved. He controlled everything that should belong to Alesha, there was no expression of guilt or worry about his brother's condition. Moreover, Elsa clearly knows that Alesha is currently pregnant.

#A few months later

"Akkhhhh!" was the sound of screams of pain in one of the delivery rooms, which was so heartbreaking. A young mother, is struggling to give birth to her baby, with her life at stake. sweat was pouring profusely, and beside him was a nurse who helped wipe the sweat, a sign that the woman was very tired.

"Come on, Mom, push again." The doctor who handles the delivery process also participates in giving encouragement.

"Akkkkhhhh!" Finally, the sound of a baby crying, which is a sign, that the little angel has been born.

"Congratulations, ma'am, the baby is very handsome and healthy without anything lacking," explained the doctor, making the young mother look relieved to hear that. The baby is also taken to be cleaned first, after that, it is given to the mother.

"You are very handsome, boy." Alesha, a woman who had just been blessed with a son, said: Her eyes looked at her son's sad face, there were doubts about whether she could provide a decent life for her baby. Even now, Alesha is still looking for a decent job.

Alesha looked at the ceiling of the room, where she had just become a silent witness to how her struggle gave birth to her son. Remembering the stupidity that Alesha experienced—the stupidity that made Alesha continue to mourn her current fate. If only, Alesha hadn't made a mistake that night, maybe now her life would still be fine.
