AMONG HIM

Liam and his Scandal

It took Dee two days to know who Liam was or to be said to be aware that his neighbor was a very well-known person in the entertainment world in the country.

Liam Iben Farubun is a film director, producer, and photographer who began his modeling career at the age of 15. Canadian-born and raised in the country, his mother is Japanese and father is from Maluku, Indonesia.

At the age of 25, the man reduced his model job and jumped into the world of photography. She was at the peak of her career as a supermodel.

The 27-year-old Liam made his first film titled "Midnight Man" about a man who loves same-sex with intrigue that makes the audience sob. And the film made him the best director and producer.

Since then all the films he directed became box office, Dee also had time to watch two films directed by Liam - with Farah Dewi his best friend who is now busy with work as customer service at the same bank with his father.

Back to Liam, it could be said that almost all the singers and bands of the upper class of the homeland made video clips made by the front neighbor of Dee's house. And not infrequently the man graced the front cover of foreign fashion magazines. So it's only natural that Liam has a luxurious house with top class friends who never stop visiting. Wild parties continue to be held every night regardless of the ears of the neighbors.

With the glory that Liam has, making his attitude seem arrogant to dominate even Dee's class who incidentally as an auditor who used to be cold became helpless when Liam was nearby. That guy can break your sanity.

...

On Saturday morning, after Dee had been doing light yoga for an hour, she then decided to clean the house, put handsfree in her ears and a mask covering her nose and mouth.

His minimalist design house is two-story with 3 rooms. 1 room is on the lower floor belongs to his parents and 2 rooms on the upper floor. The room itself measures 4x5 meters with very large glass windows, Dee can see Liam's house clearly from his room.

Just like now, Dee could see Liam's blue BMW M5 just stopping in front of the man's house. That means Liam did not come home last night, the figure of the tall man was seen coming out of the door on the right then followed by a younger man with a short haircut who framed his face with sunglasses.

Dee's eyes widened as the two men clasped hands together, suddenly his legs limp without bones, and the two men held hands, he fell on the carpet with eyes not letting go of the two men who now embrace each other and hold their jaws, continued kissing passionately.

Dee's tears fell down her smooth cheeks, either sad or in shock, but this was the first time in her life that she saw a gay couple kissing. Wait isn't the other man Ricchi Maheswara? The actor from the movie Midnight Man!

Suddenly his hand bristles, this is crazy! A huge scandal witnessed by Dee's naked eyes. The producer and the actor turned out to be in a romantic relationship. Ricci Maheswara, the 27-year-old actor is the best-selling, most famous, most fan-favorite actor in the country.

Dee's heart pounded, his heart ached, everything that amazed Liam seemed to disappear within 2 minutes, Ricchi was not the actor he adored but seeing the scene of intimacy made him lose his sense.

Damnit damnit!! Bump Dee while patting his chest. I hate you guys, and don't want to get in touch with you abnormal ones!! Pekiknya from the room.

...

At 6am when it was dark the night had changed the light of the sun that was still spoiled, when Dee began his morning run. It had become a routine for Dee every Sunday, he would spend his mornings running.

This is done for the sake of physical performance as well, the work as an auditor is very draining. If Dee does not compensate with sports, surely he will often fall ill with overtime work hours and out-of-town service trips.

Dee glanced at his sports watch showing it was 8 kilometers away, 2 more kilos left in his mind while wiping the sweat on his forehead

"Heiii by Dee.!!!" Excited Liam who ran at the same speed as the girl in orange blue shorts and nike running shoes in the same color.

Dee was almost stranded back in shock, spontaneously his hand held by Liam.

"Sister..." Said Dee parroting which automatically stopped.

"Let's run lag, I" said Liam pulling Dee's hand to follow him.

"I didn't know that you like to run,"

"For the health deck... How many more kilos?"

"2 kilos,"

"A little more then, this route is 2 kilometers to the front of the housing,"

Dee nodded.

...

How many minutes later with sweat flooding the bodies of the two, they walked casually into the residential area that was greeted by the security guards on duty, Liam and Dee just waved to the guard fathers in black uniforms.

"How many miles?"tanya Dee glanced at Liam's sport watch

"17 kilometers, good. Not even meeting you,"

"Silver run when viewed from the body posture seems rarely exercise,"

"Heyy... Who says, you don't see skinny and tall outdoor sprint runners" Liam protested with a frown.

"But big brother, how much? 2 meters?"

"That's it... This kid, brother's only 189 cm,"

Dee ber Oh's long mouth made Liam laugh.

"You're also tall.. 173 cm, right?"

"Kok sister knows?"

"That's it. as a veteran model,"

Dee nodded back.

"I can make a nice sandwich, have breakfast with me?"

"Huh?"

"Johlah... You know what kind of job your sister does, her stress level is high. What if I'm lonely enough to keep killing myself like Korean artists,"

"Sister ! Don't talk like that. I'll take breakfast,"

A smile rose from Liam's lips while embracing Dee's shoulder.

"Don't come off, I don't stink" Liam said tightening his hands.

"See neighbor, brother,"

"Neighbors don't have to care,"

"Well, I don't have to have breakfast with my sister then. Kan both neighbors jug,a" Dee replied with a jutek

Liam chuckled with laughter his eyes narrowed and immediately pinched Dee's cheek.

"You're funny deck. Come on in. Coffee or juice?" Liam asked as he took the key under the pot by the door.

Dee rounded her eyes looking at that.

"Oh my goodness, brother. Why would a house key as luxurious as this be put under the pot,"

"Brought..."

"The house is safe. The house also has a cctvnya" said Liam indifferently opened the door

Next Dee can only see the contents in the house of a famous producer, far compared to the contents of his house.

"Home's good.... There's a tree in the middle of the room" Dee said in amazement.

"Thank you, the concept is like this Dee... Green House, let me stay at home and not stress easily,"

"How's the business?" dee asked following Liam's steps that even inside the house, he was like walking on a catwalk

"There's a special assistant who takes care of the house, if I don't have time myself," Liam replied walking towards the kitchen, across the soft brown-milk velvet sofas.

"Coffee or juice?"

"Coffee...."

"You, me and my papa, we're all coffee lovers.... You smoke too? I sometimes smoke while working. That's what I can't stop,"

Dee shook his head, cigarettes for him are a lung-damaging poison.

"No. since work just started drinking coffee, inevitably, because a lot of overtime and have to resist sleepiness,"

"Tell me about yourself Dee, where's work? Where was college? What working parents? How many brothers are there?" Ask Liam who is busy turning on his coffee maker.

Dee sat in the kitchen bar, holding her chin up and telling her about herself, as if she was having a job interview, while Liam showed off his skill at making sandwiches.

"Daughter? Does my sister have a boyfriend?" Liam asked as he listened to Dee's explanation was over.

"Not yet brother." replied Dee spontaneously.

"Why? When was the last time you dated?"

"Business work.Last courtship while in college, our thesis was broken because he wanted to continue to be accompanied while I was focused on working on the thesis. He was good because he was working at the time.. "

"Arogan... Should help you, Dek," liam said, putting a plate of cheese sandwiches and a cup of hot americano.

"What kind of girlfriend are you Dee?" Ask Liam again joined in the chair next to him, not forgetting to bring the man's coffee and sandwiches.

"I don't have a type, which is important. Because who's been dating me is different,"

"Playgirl nih.." said Liam sipping his coffee while glancing at the little girl next to him.

"New 3 times brother, Junior High School, High School once, college once. But it doesn't seem like a great love, because no one ever wanted me to fight. Especially SMU down, it seems only the turmoil of school children who want to try his name dating," explained Dee.

Liam laughed out loud again his eyes disappeared while holding his stomach.

"Son's dating Ricchi huh?" Asked Dee who could not hold his mouth, really he regretted his words just now, proved the look on Liam's face changed 180 degrees, soon he will be kicked out by the man next to him who is still silent looking at his coffee glass.

"Hmmm.... Maybe it's been 2 years since we've been close" Liam replied honestly, Dee didn't expect that this man would admit that he was gay.

"Sorry brother... I accidentally saw my brother with Ricci yesterday. Be careful, someone will see. It could be a huge scandal in the entertainment world. Fortunately the house next to me was on their weekend in Bekasi, and the corner house facing north,"

"You are like the mothers of their children... This is the first time in my life that anyone has dared to talk like this. So you can understand my life choices?"

"Who I brother, just a neighbor brother who has only known for 2 weeks. This is even our second meeting. Honestly, at first I wanted to hate my brother and Ricci, but all night I thought everyone had their own life choices, although according to most people think what you live is wrong. But if you're happy, so what? What do you care about other people's thoughts?"

Liam covered his face with both hands, there were tears falling as he stared at Dee.

"Why is brother crying?"

"When I was 14, my sister was married, I was 15, I was a model, and since then the relationship with the family has been reduced because of the busy shooting and so on. Graduating high school I moved to the USA, the agency that recruited me there and worked full time as a model. So the role of the family is completely gone, there is no advising.. I live free, as free as__ Because of the association also I became like men, not women. Since then until now I live as I want, making friends only for the sake of social class only. But with Ricci he is different, even though he is younger but he is more able to calm me who is still explosive emotions," said Liam while combing hair with his hands.

"Spirits of Brother Liam! Adults need a process... Not judging a childish brother but maybe there are still traits that are not good to be dimmed or changed," said Dee wisely, he is like this person. Too much thinking to rarely make mistakes in his life, it makes him mature faster than women of his age.

"Thank you yah deck... You want to be my real sister, right?"

"Eh... Why is it that you're such a prankster.."

"I used to want to have a sister when I first saw you as neighbor A.4 Who wrote memos on my friend's car wiper surprised me turned out to be a little girl who I thought mothers were chatty. Haha... And your expression back then was still clearly recorded in my head, adorable," Liam said.

Dee nodded slowly, kept looking away at the glass and sipped the coffee

"In addition to running what do you like sports?"

"pool... But this month has not been swimming again, membership at the Qua Sport Center has not been extended again, sis" said Dee slowly

"Hey.swim in the back... Anytime, rather than no one wearing it," exclaimed Liam nudging Dee's arm.

"Sister... Don't be like this, I'm not good" Dee halis said.

"Wait...." Said Liam patting Dee on the shoulder once and then walking hastily towards the stairs, Dee chose to finish her sandwich while waiting for the producer.

"It's...." Said Liam putting a keychain on the table.

"What is this ?"

"This big yellow locks the front door, the yellow only locks the back door and this white one locks my room. My bedroom is always the key to getting out, because in the bedroom there is a secret work space, which no one else should know because the projects I'm working on are all there,"

"Keep why you love me..."

"Because you're my sister, I believe... And your work makes me believe that you're the longest person I've ever met in my life, and our promise is that we'll continue to support each other like a brother,"

"Sister...." Dee said quietly "Don't be so easy, what if I do no-no,"

"Hmmm... Looks like it's impossible.the securities and jewelry I keep in the bank... Just in case, I need something outside and you can just come in here and get it,"

Dee instantly turned her head and glared sharply at Liam, who was met with a wide-eyed laugh from the man next to her.
