Aldebaran Looking for Love
Chapter 38
Because of the traffic jam, Al finally decided to go back home. He no longer had the energy to be friendly in the condition of Diandra, so it is better that he just go home.
When he parked his car in the garage, he saw that Shaletta's car was parked there. Means his only sister has gone home. He should teach Shaletta a lesson! Today her sister had already acted arbitrarily to Ai, it was inexcusable at all!
He immediately ran into the house. As soon as he arrived in front of Shaletta's room, he immediately shouted, “Deeeeeeek!”
There's no answer.
“Deeeeeeek!” He banged on Shaletta's bedroom door again. In addition to when there is a want, Al also called Shaletta with the call ‘Dek’ also at the time of anger, to reduce the bit of tension that will be created between them.
And finally, the door opened.
Al was just about to scold Shaletta, but his sentence stopped when he saw his sister's eyes were swollen. Like I've been crying.
“Lo why, Ta?” al asked, immediately concerned. In an instant, he had already forgotten his anger.
Shaletta turned her face away, not expecting Al to be immediately aware of her puffy eyes.
“Ta..” call Al, again.
“Abang why are you here? Want to get angry?” Shaletta tries to hide all her feelings by pretending to be a jutek.
“Lo why?” Al did not answer, instead asked back. Shaletta's raucous voice won't be able to cover anything.
“No why-why.”
“Do not lie, Ta!”
“Gue drop out.”
“Sama Dion?”
“Ya, who else is it?” Shaletta was worried about her brother's question.
“Kok can?! Aren't you guys all right last week for your mama's birthday?”
Shaletta really wants to punch her own brother. Even in times like this he still has to explain about how the relationship with his brother?
“I am also clear brother will not understand.” Shaletta sneers.
Al breathed. He does not understand love issues like this. If Shaletta comes to him with a pile of life problems other than romance, Al will surely come up with the best solution. Offer help. Whatever.
But this time, he will try.
He breaks into Shaletta's room.
“Ih, what the hell?!” Shaletta doesn't accept.
Al ignored Shaletta, instead laying her body on her sister's bed.
“Try the story,” says Al, short.
“Abang will not understand.”
“Ya, try it anyway.”
“Now also nganterin girls home, do not need to be pretentious already become an expert in the problem of romance deh!”
“Gue has a sister gini very, yes Lord!” Al complained. He hugged Shaletta's bolster while closing his eyes.
“Abang if you want to sleep in your room aja sanaaaa. Not here! I want to cry!” Shaletta whines, tugging at Al's suit.
However, he was unmoved, still lying in the same position.
For a few minutes, Shaletta tried to move Al, but only produced nothing. Shaletta finally gave up, and went to lie down next to her brother.
“Hearted people let alone dong.” Shaletta.
Al did not answer.
A few minutes later, Shaletta's tears began to pool again.
“Lo why the hell? Broken heart doang..” said Al.
Shaletta took a pillow and then thumped her brother, “Gue I swear you're heartbroken! Let me know what it feels like!”
Al chuckles.
“It seems impossible deh.”
Shaletta sneers.
“Emang si Dion did?”
“Checking. He did it to Bandung with his friends, uh it turned out to be ngapelin chick.”
“Hah?!”
Shaletta nodded while wiping away her own spilled tears.
“But you know anyway, Dek?” ask Al, curious.
“Gue tell me in Bandung to follow his car.”
Al laughs.
“Kok brother even laugh anyway?” Shaletta doesn't accept.
“Lo sagging own disease!”
“Yes his name I suspect. Every Saturday, I always want to go to Bandung. Not go the same temen, but the theme never updates the story at all he once.”
“Emang really yes, women are the most spooky creatures in the world.” Al complained.
Shaletta pouting, “Abang really deh. Why here if you just want to mock me????”
Al chuckles.
“So how can it break?” ask Al.
“Yes, I'm on the phone. Keep me angry, abis it I break up deh.”
“Nice!”
Shaletta looked at the brother. Finally, the reaction he wanted.
“That dong daritadi!” Shaletta's tears are still standing.
Al chuckles, “Udah anyway. Why try to think of a mute guy?! Mending kayak brother, single and happy. No drama-drama club.”
Shaletta sneers. Then, he came back crying. Several times, he seemed to wipe away his tears. Al lets Shaletta spill her feelings. Just sit there to accompany the sister.
“Abang?”
“Hm?”
“Bang Boris single no?”
“Yeah! Boris is dating Rene!”
“Ah, really too!”
“Why suddenly Boris anyway?!”
“Abis handsome, lawyer, his age has been mateng, but not married. Who knows I have a chance.”
“Ah, you are still a child, enjoy life first. Don't look for men who want to settle down.”
“But I sirik same Ai.”
“Emang Ai why?”
“Udah want to be married same brother?”
Al upset yourself, “Kate alieeeee???”
Shaletta laughs. Al ruffled his sister's hair.
“Again love again Ai,” Shaletta chirps.
“Why is the topic so to me and Ai anyway?! Oh, you cry again. Cheated right? Pain right?”
Shaletta took a pillow, then thumped Al again, “Punya brother who does not know anything tuh gini very hell!”
Al chuckles.
“But you were so bad, Ta, you don't want to nganterin Ai? Poor him, not feeling very good with me.”
“Means don't want to be used by brother! I just want to teach it to Ai!”
“Who benefitsin?”
“Lah?! Recognize Ai as a girlfriend equally papa, according to brother not merahin?! Brother did not realize this second also maybe the reception and catering place has been discussed with Papa?!” Shaletta repossessed at length.
Al feels like he was slapped.
“Tuh! You didn't think about it, did you?”
Al laughed stiffly, trying to cover up his panic, “No. No way.”
“We again talk about Abhimanyu Maheswara loh!”
“Neg. No way, Ta!”
Shaletta sighed, and turned to her back. It should be time to be alone, to enjoy every wound in the heart. Why is he so distracted by his brother's problems?
Al immediately stood up.
“No! No way!” al said, trying to calm yourself. However, his voice was full of doubt. Shaletta could have realized that.
Then, he heard the footsteps of his brother coming out of the door.
“Close the door!!” shaletta.
Al said, then closed the door of his sister's room tightly. He could not think of advising his sister.
He just wanted to calm down, hoping that his father would come home soon. As always, without planning.
He lay in his bedroom alone. Hourly.
Until finally, he heard voices from the lower floors of his house.
Al immediately got up, out of his room.
He could hear Abhimanyu laughing. And whose laughter was with him?
Al panic.
He immediately ran down the stairs.
And it's true.
Once in the living room, Rianti was sitting in the living room with his father and mother.
