Between LOVE or MONEY

Between LOVE or MONEY
The wrong conversation



An empty Ohio street in the morning, a luxury car with an open roof makes the wind blow their blond hair


"Do you know what time it is?" Mariah looked at Max


"Now four o'clock in the morning."


"Thank God you haven't come home yet, if we don't end!"


"Did Mama tell you something bi? why isn't he coming home this weekend?" Max let go of the steering wheel for a while and turned to his aunt who was sitting casually in a low seat next to him, Mariah took a quick glance while massaging her forehead, apparently she was still affected by alcohol. The woman shrugged her shoulders back at the full gaze Max asked


"I thought you knew why you didn't come home?" Search Mariah


"I don't even know" Max gave a look knowing nothing.


Mariah frowned, she also did not know what the reason her sister did not come home this Sunday.


"I'm glad your father didn't interfere much!" Mariah turned the topic to the host


"You know he's bi, should we be happy or not for his attitude?" From the look on his face clearly Max did not like Mr. Edward present in their conversation.


"Why don't your mom and dad get divorced?" Max laughed bitterly at the heartless words from his sexy aunt's lips


"I just heard a little brother say that for the first time!" Max's grunts couldn't believe it. Mariah sneered, she just wanted to be honest.


"Max, do you know that your mom and dad's relationship isn't good? They only consider marriage to be a mere formality" who does not know, even the gardener and the vacuum cleaner of Edwardo's house's sewage tank also know that.


"I think everyone knows that the Eduwardo family never had a good relationship"


"Yes I agree with you"


Entering the Edwardo family luxury home area, high concrete walls with red brick designs neatly arranged, up to almost five meters, on top of which decorated a kind of cube-shaped garden lights with taper tips like crystal spears. The dimly lit lights smashed into the red brick, giving the impression of being cold and firm. From this great wall, the car must drive through the farmland decorated with pine trees with an area of one hectare, to reach the second gate of Edwardo's house.


Max turned the steering wheel, parked the car into the yard of the house. He put down the origin of his car because it looks like his sleepiness will strike soon.


she and Mariah got out of the car through the courtyard of the house, up the connecting stairs between the garden of the house and the terrace, occasionally they both told stories and chuckled like there was no burden of life


Mariah grabs Max's arm, balances herself. The woman clung to Max's burly arms and stepped in with her high heel. Climbing stairs.


"I thought that girl was your lover"


"Do you think she's the girl that suits me?"


"Should I be honest?" Reply Mariah looked at her face with a seductive smile.


"Why not" challenge Max. Nobody said there was a girl who didn't deserve him.


"I thought such a girl should get a much better man than you! hahaha.." ledek Mariah ran away from Max, Mariah went into the family's main room with a large pillar in the middle.


"That hurts a lot!" Max's whispers held back a small laugh, he knew his aunt was just teasing.


"No Max, I was just kidding. He looks so young and sweet like a puppy that is still so innocent and needs a lot of life guidance" Mariah said later


"You mean aunty she has to study wild like aunty?" Cynical Max follows Mariah's step into the family's main room. The house lights are off, only the lights of small decorative lights are dim.


"Hahaha, you know that!" Show Mariah to agree, she settles down on the couch and straightens her legs.


"That's not learning bi, but it's destructive!" Max to the point


"Come on Max, what year is this? we live in a free country!"


"Then.."


"There is no young person who does not like to party and have fun!!" Mariah pointed at herself proudly.


"I don't, I don't think Lia is either" said Max picturing Lia's face and making his face blush on its own 


"Who's lia?"


"the girl you called like a puppy!"


"Oh so her name is Lia? A good name" said Mariah lowering her legs and grabbing a glass at the table, her throat feeling dry, she felt thirsty and needed water. Max helps Mariah pour water in her glass.


"How is it different from me?" 


"if you're clearly different, if you're not normal! where there are normal men holding themselves back to this extent!" Mariah accused of laughing at her gawking-puppet with a plain face.


"Why did my aunt say that?" Max doesn't believe his aunt's harsh accusations.


"you even had a room with a woman drunk and half-naked. But you didn't do anything to him, did you? And now you refuse to say that men are abnormal, come on Max!!" Aunt Mariah was indeed the person she was, she said everything inside her head spontaneously but max felt comfortable while chatting about her personally. He's a laid-back friend and Max can understand every word he says.


Mary slammed herself on the sofa once again. He threw his little bag somewhere


Max grabbed a glass and poured himself some drinking water, his throat also felt dry hearing Mariah's many sneers.


"I told you bi, I can't do that to just anyone, to me 'it' is like a treasure." max muttered. He was still willing to continue this strange chatter but was also a little embarrassed if discussing it was too vulgar.


"what! a treasure? Are you talking about this house? this is all you'll have! Why are you talking about treasure! How many of Edwardo's assets will you have Max!" Mariah pointed to this luxurious house


"In such a thing, 'your information' is just a part of you that you have to let go of someday" what he meant by 'your information' Max shuddered a little as his aunt said that word. He glanced at his junior. Shit! He imagined Lia's body lying in the room. Imagine their hot kisses.


"can we stop talking about this, I'm feeling a little careless." Max's whisper can't help but imagine Lia's beautiful curves, if the girl hadn't been jackpot on their clothes, maybe all the terms would no longer be attached to her, and aunt Mariah will stop calling her a virgin.


"You'll be single for the rest of your life if you think too much about it!" Perhaps Mariah did not know that at this time Max's face was already very red because of their indecent chatter, the man just kept imagining Lia and began to have difficulty holding back, she said, she seems to have to go to the bathroom and cool off.


"I thought you and her were a match, it would be fun if your first night was made into a movie!" Mariah is still babbling.


"Stop talking about it bi.." asked Max at the threshold of his patience. She was so normal that the testosterone flare was so pronounced in her chest. He just kept trying to hold back.


"I think it's really funny, do you need a producer, a director or an extra cast?" Mariah still loves flirting with Max


"Stop it. Don't talk about it again!" 


"That's important Max, that's the future of the Eduardo family, you want this family not to continue its descent, you're a mere puppet!!" Mariah was still excited to continue their strange chatter while Max was lazy to continue the debate


Looks like this conversation should be stopped immediately.


"Thank you for your input bi, I'll think about it" Max said then got up from his seat. He was about to go to the room.


"Yes, you better think about it!!"


another voice disguised between Max and mariah's conversation left the two stunned


The lights illuminate every part of the living room and the entire house.


A woman folded her legs in a chair right in front of Mariah lying down, she was none other than the great mistress of Edward's house. Mrs Pauline.


Seeing the presence of her Brother, Mariah confirmed the position, she immediately sat down and immediately straightened her back


Max rejoins the chair next to Mariah, the two of them as if ready for this impromptu trial. Look at those sharp eyes.


"It's good that you're finally home" the heavy voice and the discordant tone sounded very scary


"do you know how long I've been waiting for you guys to get home?"


Neither Max nor Mariah dared to answer


"Since then you have been telling a lot and chattering why now just shut up!" Pauline grunts with the corners of the lips drawn cynically


How Max and Mariah answered Pauline's question if her eyes were so sharp


"Continue talking, who you were, virginity, virginity, bedmate, naked, drunk!"


Max and Mariah are getting stunned


Pauline got up from the chair, walked slowly towards the back of the chair where Maria and Max were sitting, her palms holding onto the shoulders one by one of the two accused creatures, leaving Mariah and Max a little aghast. Pauline slightly lowered her head to bring her mouth closer to Max's and Mariah's ears


"Have you guys had enough fun tonight?"


Max and Mariah glanced at each other and bowed deeply. Their blood was shaking in horror
