Aretta & Secrets

Idea from Gio

"Don't be mad about that. I'm a jerk eating it he doesn't want to tell you that he has a brother and now I'm in the process of changing for the better, I want to know anyone who is my friend" he admitted. He didn't tell me what kind of misery he was doing to me, but I don't think it's important for others to know.

Rafa nodded in understanding, but his gaze still said as if I should still explain this matter to him. I just gave a small nod and he excused me to work again.

"He's good" Gio said as he ate the last bite of his burger. I admit it because despite knowing I was shunned he still didn't budge and still wanted to play with me. I then continued biting my burger when suddenly Gio asked.

"Lo got a girlfriend?" the question that was so un-the-point that it choked me and it made Gio chuckle happily, "you reaction I can guess. It means you don't have a boyfriend" he said, nodding. I don't know why I was upset to see him. He asked back. The question I never thought would come out of his mouth, "why do you still stay at home?" Her face looked serious which signified she also wanted to hear a serious answer from me.

I was really surprised that it was hard to get my voice out just because of that question, "I mean you?" I know what he means but I just want to know what he's thinking.

"Gue knows you don't like it at home and you also know you don't think you exist. He still loves money but it is not the same as what you receive from him. So what's the point of living there?" inexplicably.

"Gue doesn't know!" frustratingly. I had the intention to leave, only I was scared when I was outside because I was still of age. If it happens, I will suffer because I have lost my home. There are many good people out there, but there are bad people out there too. I just feel excessive fear. I'm not ready, "maybe later," I said.

"Why not immediately?" he urged hopefully, "Gue already has enough savings and I thought that I would get out of the house. I would buy a house that I could make a business in case my career in football wasn't as smooth as I wanted." He continued.

I was a little surprised by Gio's idea, or maybe it was a satire for me.

"So you mean, you want me out of the house?"

"Don't misunderstand me. I know you hate Mama and Mama also hate you. I know you're not stupid. I already have a plan to get out of the house and live with Ana in the future. I mean why don't we go out together and find a house for us to live in. I can take a loan and the money can help us open a business. Lo focus on education as a home business to help pay the loan and I will focus on the ball to pay the loan as well. We have to get out of life as normal people."

"Gue doesn't know" I said slowly. Gio frowned but I still had to say my objections so as not to have any misunderstandings. Our relationship has just begun to improve.

"I honestly don't believe you. You change, but I don't know if your change will be permanent." I admit Gio's idea is amazing, but the details are not clear. And again if it's been done and then in the middle of the road he left me, how do I have to pay the loan. Automatically the money he will borrow is not a small amount if he thinks he will set up a home business.

"Gue understands what you mean means I now have to be stronger proof to you if I don't mess around. It's time to take you to school." Gio stood up suddenly as he realized that I was almost too late for class. I asked him to drop me off at the front of the school stop because the gate would be full of vehicles too. I don't want him to be late.

"Remember. You have me and I'm not going anywhere. But please think again what I explained earlier." I nodded before I actually left.

Today is the outing class to the university that Aidan was talking about. I immediately got into the bus that was lined up and fortunately my pain had improved. I circled my head in search of an empty place to coincide with someone calling my name.

I found Aidan who had been sitting with another teacher, his countenance seemed relieved when he found me here.

"I don't think you're coming" he said, and it made me grimace.

"Sorry sir, I was a little late."

"Then please find an empty seat" said the accompanying teacher next to Aidan. I nodded my head and immediately walked more into the bus.

"Aretta's." I turned my head and found Rafa waving at me. I accelerated my steps to get to where he was. I just put my ass on the chair, Rafa's been throwing questions at me. I realized he wouldn't let me calm down after what he found.

"Sister? Why didn't I know you had a sister? Just what the fuck is that jerk?" ouh zeal. He seemed to have an excess of energy from talking without pause which made me almost spout laughter.

"Yes, I'll tell you a story. You heard it yourself that he was a jerk. We used to be close, but after I went there I was equally guilty. He's been bothering me and we've been really loose ever since. But lately he's changed and he says he wants to take all his mistakes to me" I explained. I really like Gio now, even though he is unreliable it doesn't matter. I just want to have a brother who can be my resting place.

"Gue is here if you need a storymate" Rafa said suddenly and it touched me.

"But I'm okay. Gio's life has changed too. He doesn't bother me anymore." We both chuckled. I am grateful to still have someone else who can be my place to lean on other than Aidan. Even though I don't rely on him too much.

The first time I moved here, I did think about eliminating the Aretta gembrot designation, but after I entered school, my mind opened up when I became entangled with the Lord. Wherever I go there will always be people who don't like me and I have to accept that. At first I was very upset about it but now I'm not. Let them hate me because my life is not just focused on thinking about their bad talk.
