Vania arrived at the building at lunchtime, as usual. Handing over the order that he delivered every day to the ofice boy who was waiting at the entrance.

Cindy showed up to give the payment money that week.

"Makataih, though,

"Yes, you're welcome."

Vania spread her gaze across the large room, and several employees appeared to start descending through the elevator to take their breaks.

"Sir Arya is there?" he asked Cindy.

"There's."

"Aren't you tipped off?" Vania asked.

"For whom?"

"Make me."

Cindy frowned.

"Sir Arya, don't you usually tell me to go to her room? I'll bring him lunch." Vania shows a totebag in her hand that contains a special lunch box for the man.

"Oh, no tuh. But if it's for Mr. Arya, let me love you." Cindy held out her hand.

Vania stunned.

"Soalah Pak Arya can not go down, the work is a lot." continued Cindy.

"If so, can't I go upstairs?" Vania.

"I don't dare, there's no command" Cindy replied.

"That's it?"

The woman nodded.

"Oh yeah, I'll just pick this up." Vania handed the totebag in her hands.

"Good." Cindy accepted the thing.

At the same time Arya got out of the elevator in a hurry.

"I asked for the schedule later that afternoon to be repeated, I had to go .." the man stopped right behind Cindy.

"Yes sir?"

"I have a need for a moment, .. I ask the schedule this afternoon to be postponed until tomorrow." said Arya, then he glanced at the girl who froze in the presence of his assistant.

"You're taking lunch?" arya's greeting to him.

"Mm. .. yes bang." replied Vania, somewhat flattened.

The man nodded his head.

"I have to go, Cindy" he said, then walked towards the door.

"Tu-wait" said Vania, walking in haste to chase the man out of the building.

"Did you?" call him when they're in the parking lot.

"Yes?" Arya stopped and then turned the body.

"Can we talk for a second?" Vania approaching.

"There's no time, brother has to go." Arya walked back to her car parked at the end of the area.

"But bang, I need to talk." Vania chased.

"Later, you have to go first." Arya ignored.

"Some days we didn't see each other, and didn't tell each other." he tried to hold the man's departure.

"Is your brother angry?" Vania half yelled.

Arya stopped her steps right near her car, then turned around.

"Anged?"

Vania nodded her head.

"Anged to whom?" Arya asked.

"My same?"

"Why should you be angry with me?"

"No idea, maybe it was our last conversation?" he answers.

"Which one?" Arya remembered.

"All." said Vania. "Am I wrong?"

Now Arya is silent.

"When not contacted me since. No message, we didn't even meet after that. Is something wrong?" he approached.

"You think?" the man replied.

"You think there's something wrong with not having our last conversation?" Arya asked back, making the girl before her frown.

"Ng .. no, but ...

"Why do you ask like that?" the man folded his hands on his chest.

"I'm just ..." Vania looked at Arya's face. "Because you haven't contacted me since. Moreover, the attitude of the brother who is like this, when we meet in the store is also that big brother? I thought you were angry."

Arya exhaled loudly.

"Aren't you the one asking for this kind of relationship?" the man said.

"You're the one who asked your brother to be casual, and not flashy? you want a relationship like this?" said.

Vania tight.

"Abang is trying to follow your will, and trying not to get too carried away, because what? because you don't want to impose your will on you. Because it's like you're forcing you into this relationship. And it doesn't feel good, when you want to have a serious relationship with someone but that person doesn't seem as serious as you."

"So, .. brother is trying to be ordinary. After all, you don't have time to mince words, a lot of things you have to do, and wait to be completed. Just like you, who think a lot of things to do" he said.

The man pulled and exhaled again, but now calmed down.

"But I want to talk." Vania muttered in a trembling voice.

"Others to talk about? wasn't the talk of that time clear enough? because too much talk will not produce any results, right? at the end of the day, you still have to be patient waiting for you. So, .. yes we are, .. we are like this first. You'll wait until you're ready, and I hope you don't have to wait too long" he said, turning around.

"Bang, ..." Vania grabs the man to stop him, and Arya's cell phone rings.

"Yes?" the man answered the phone call.

"...

"Abang now there, wait" he said, then shut off the connection.

"Don't you?"

"Abang has to go to the hospital, Alya wants to give birth. He waited for my brother." he said, then got in the car.

Vania was stunned again, but a moment later she regained her senses.

"I'm coming along." the girl chased after the car that started moving.

They ran down the aisle of the hospital in the middle of the city, and arrived at the last moment everyone had gathered in front of the delivery room.

"How? ..." Arya approached Alena who was waiting by the door.

"He wants you." replied the youngest, who then let the older brother into the room.

A few moments later the sound of crying babies sounded loud, and those who were waiting outside heaved a sigh of relief almost simultaneously.

"One more father's son ..." Alena muttered while sticking her head against the hospital wall.

"It seems, all of her baby sister Bang Arya wants her to wait." Vania muttered, then chuckled.

"Oh yes, how can you come with Bang Arya?" Alena has just noticed Vania's presence among them.

"I ... happened to drive lunch " replied Vania.

"Oh, ..."

Then everyone's attention was distracted when the delivery room door opened, and Arya appeared holding the newborn baby Alya, followed by Rasya in the back.

"The baby is a girl, .." said the man with a haru look.

His two younger sisters came over and saw the baby in the arms of their older brother. All three welcomed so happily the presence of the tiny baby, great affection just radiated from them. Especially Arya, who did not want to let go of her eyes even a little from the little creature.

"It's okay if you stay home?" Arya appears after delivering the baby Alya was born to a special baby room.

"Many things you have to prepare for tomorrow" he continued.

"It's okay. Later that night Mas Rasya came back here again." replied Alya who was still lying on her bed.

"You guys?" arya asked her other two sisters, who were sitting on the sofa not far from Alya's bed, she also glanced at the fleeting Vania who was sitting on the other side.

"I'm coming home, sorry Brother Hardi keep the kids alone." Alena got up from her seat, "Tomorrow I'll come back here again, sister?" he said to his brother.

"okay." Alya nodded too.

"You're Ann?"

"I'm waiting for Kang Rendra to pick her up." replied Anna.

"All right then."

They were silent for a while.

"You, ... Van?" now he turned to Vania who was sitting petrified as if waiting for something.

"I .. ng ...

"Well, you don't have a car, do you?" Alena.

"My car is in .. my brother's office parking lot." replied Vania who hesitantly glanced at Arya.

"Yes, come along later and drop by the car." repeated Alena.

Vania glanced again at the man, who looked unreacted.

Ah, .. He was serious apparently. But why do I feel so unwilling? he's entangling.

"Snap, it's late afternoon!" Alena immediately pulled him to leave the place.

***

The atmosphere was quiet in the car on the way home that afternoon. None of them had any intention of starting a conversation, especially lovers who were overwhelmed by the excitement of their relationship just a few weeks old.

Two hearts are intertwined, but are evading each other because of the doubts that are beginning to grow between the two.

"Don't you think, that something's been weird lately?" alena finally opened her voice.

"What a weird?" Arya answered.

"You guys have a problem?" Alena asked a question.

"What problem?" Arya asked back.

"You don't know, but you think you have a problem?"

"You are ngaco." the man muttered, but both eyes glanced at the girl sitting in the back seat, who happened to be staring at him.

"You guys rarely fight lately? but most of the diem-dieman kayak gini.?" Alena with her thoughts.

No one answered.

"Isn't it? to diem? sometimes you guys look like a boyfriend who's back on the line." that girl's laughing.

Vania poked her lips tightly.

"My mind is just going there?" he continued, then he fell silent.

The car stopped right in front of the gate of her tiny house, and her husband immediately came to greet her, with his two children whom she had left since noon.

"You wanna stop by?"

"No." the two men answered simultaneously.

"Don't you? a compak?" Alena grinned.

They don't react.

"Is there anything I don't know?" tanyanya.

Both silenced.

"Ish, .. Are you weird?" he muttered, then left the car to enter the house, before his first child whined to come to Arya.

***

And the four-wheeled vehicle turned into the area of the building where Arya worked after a few minutes of traveling in silence, because the two people were still not talking to each other.

The car stopped right next to Vania's Honda jazz, and they were still both silent. Arya leaned her head against the back of the chair, with her mind glaring far away.

"You when you're ready to tell brother? or ... if you do not want to be serious better honest than now, than one of us feel compelled to live this relationship. Is not a hungan that should make happy because of its togetherness? not even afraid of being known by others." Arya finally opened her voice.

Vania squinted her own pants, and she almost spoke.

"Abang frees you to make a choice, if indeed we can not be together as you want. Because our thinking is different. You have the right to vote, and brother won't force."

Water droplets burst from the corners of Vania's eyes, and melted down the cheeks. She felt something like it was sticking up her throat, making her feel sick and tight.

Why does it feel like he's deciding to split up? inner Vania.

"Maybe the brother who decided too soon to take a serious relationship, while you still need time" the man still continued to speak.

"I'm sorry, brother, because this affection makes you feel like having you" he said, and he got out of the car immediately.

"It's late in the afternoon, you still have to do a lot of things, don't you?" he opened the back door where Vania was sitting frozen.

"Mmm ... did we break up?" Vania got out of the car after wiping away her tears.

"Not broken up," Arya chuckled bitterly, as the word had just crossed her mind. "Abang will only give you as much time as you need. And if you're sure, tell brother. We'll decide on the next move later."

"So what does that mean? we break first?"

Arya is holding her shoulder.

"When I miss what?"

The man was stunned.

"What if brother kangen?" said, spontaneously.

Arya chuckled again. "You are a pawn." he said.

"What brother wouldn't miss me?" rajuk Vania's.

Arya gave a smile, even under these circumstances the girl could still make her feel anxious.

"Abang can come to the store if you miss."

"Abang is he busy? haven't come in a week?"

"You can call."

"Abang is also not a nelfon." Vania, and she looked at Arya with her sparkling dark bead. "It was so busy that I couldn't even speak to me once a week." It sounded like an insinuation.

Arya chuckled until her face looked up. He never thought about that. His loneliness has always made him not care about several things, including contacting his lover, because his habit so far is to just make sure the condition of his three sisters is fine.

"So, ... How's next?" ask Vania.

"Take as much time as you need, and then we'll talk again." Arya stays with her stance.

"Keep brother?"

"Abang will wait. While trying to keep myself firm." Arya.

Then suddenly Vania slid into his arms, wrapping her hands around the tall man. And drown the face in the chest of his field, whose heart in it was beating so fast.

"I'm sorry, I can't be what you want." she whispered.

Arya returned her embrace was not less tight.

Then Vania let go of both hands and rewinded her face to look at Arya's face that was bowed to her.

"I love you, brother. Wait for me to finish my business." she said, as she was determined inwardly to return to talk to her mother about matchmaking.

Arya nodded.

And in the next second Vania stretched out her hands to grab the man's sturdy shoulder. He tiptoed to align their height, and then pulled his neck. And soon after, their two lips met. Touch gently, and taste each other for a while.

Vania even encapsulates Arya's face to deepen her kiss, take a sip and share her breath, exchanging warmth that immediately radiates in all directions. Leaving a trail that they might not be able to forget for a long time.
