Between Me and Brother

Series 2, chapter 58

The atmosphere began to darken a little, the wind blew wiggling leaves around the front of the house. Mery sat in the front seat of the house while enjoying the twilight light in the afternoon.

He thought of his hometown in Jogja. It was not felt that time had quickly passed, mery missed the sirah mbok that was in his village. His voice, his attention, his advice made him want to meet to let go of his longing. As soon as the memory crossed his brain, Mery wanted to visit his homeland in Jogja.

"Hah~" his sigh let out a long sigh. "I miss you so much" said Mery grumbling.

"Whose miss?" tanya Umi immediately sat beside Mery.

"Eh ... The umi? Anu ... Mery kangen the mbok," he said looking at his dead face with longing.

"Oh yeah well, we haven't heard from the same mbok in a long time?" mike began to remember.

"Yes Umi, when will we return to Jogja. It feels like that's the place that's the most comfortable Mi."

"Em, how are you? Abi bought this house. So our house in Jogja we rarely visit. Even~ has turned out yearly."

"Come on Mi, are we going home yuk?" take Mery.

"Yes if Umi wants to, but ... what about abi?" umi answered confused while thinking about how she could visit her house.

Mery straightened both his legs he leaned his shoulders on the sofa. Mery also thought the same thing in order to talk to the abi to get permission to visit Jogja.

Abi came out of the house while holding Adelia invited her to play the doll in the terrace. Umi looked at him with a smile, instantly seeing Adelia who was laughing cheerfully. Umi finds the answer in order to get permission from her husband.

"Bi .." said Umi got up from the sofa and moved to sit on the floor next to her husband.

"What Mi?" abi asked not to return his gaze, he was busy playing with his grandson.

"We've been here for years and we have grandchildren. Can we vacation to Jogja a week~ aja Bi, can we?" rayu Umi expectantly.

"yes too. But abi's work is still not done Mi?"

"That's ya~" his tone was disappointed.

"Grandpa ... Grandma why? how come his face is so tangled?"

"Kan grandma is old, so it's natural that her face is wrinkled. if Adelia is still small. So it will not tangle," replied Umi smiling as she grabbed the body and hugged it.

Mery looked at her parents who were playing with their first grandchild. He thought that if Mery was married and had children, he might not be far from Adelia. They'll play along jokingly, scrambling over each other. Excitement yes if one more ... Mery muttered without him noticing smiling in his daydream.

Instantly Indra came with his motorbike. Tery heard the sound of her husband's motorbike running out to greet her with a lot of waiting that had been waiting for him to come home.

That sense smile was highly anticipated by tery when he first saw it was him, but not with his shadow. Indra immediately held her baby and gave her a colored textbook.

"Dad, why did you come home so long?" adelia said scowling in her father's arms.

"Yes dad is busy, this is dad has come home .." replied Indra smiling.

Right standing next to him Indra was indifferent to the wife. His gaze was only occasionally he looked at her, Tery did not care about the husband's indifference. The essence of their household is to stay together despite one-sided love.

Lying in the bedroom thinking the next thing is to propose to Mery, Anton is still busy with choosing the building to rent. Everything's good, but I'm confused if Mery would like it? Mumbled Anton. Forget it, I'll do it myself. Mery just took care of it. He also just got out of the hospital, definitely need a complete rest. Continue while looking for a good building place on google.

"Sister! There's a guest looking for you" Willy said, entering Anton's room.

"Huh? Who!"

"The point is to get out first come on .." invite Willy to pull Anton's hand out and see who comes in the afternoon.

Anton was pulled by him down the stairs, seen women wearing a modern hijab wearing jeans clothes that are slightly loosened in white. The woman stood at the door behind him.

With clothes like this on the body Anton plain shirt black short and color made of thin. Anton felt embarrassed if it was Mery, finally he chose to go upstairs and take long pants to look polite in front of women.

Mery once told Anton in Korea that he did not like men wearing a color when in front of a woman who was not his mahram, considering that Anton immediately ran up the stairs just because he took the trousers.

"Lho brother! How to go up again?" ask Willy wonder. It was not Mery, ck ... Ah, you're a bucin. Willy muttered in confusion.

After taking the long pants, Anton dressed up a little hair so as not to look cute. As he descends the stairs, Anton is surprised that the woman's voice while chatting with Willy is different. His voice was not Mery, Anton immediately saw who the woman was, as Anton peered over from above. He was surprised so much. Why did Ara come here? Well, just trouble him anyway. Anton muttered.

"Anton's?" tanya Ara looked up.

"I'm sorry I'm busy, Ra, you can't go home. It's late in the afternoon, it's not good for girls to come home maghrib-maghrib."

"Sister, how are you? Ara is your ex, he played here because you guys haven't seen it's natural that he ..." Said cut.

"Diem you deck, sister has met him in the hospital. You know how!" a little bit of heart.

Ara simply fell silent listening to her voice, listening to what she had never heard from her sweet mouth. Her expression was completely unconcerned with Ara's arrival for her. In the past when we did not meet for a day you looked for you to worry. But now, I play at your house you just throw it out. Mumbled Ara slightly disappointed.

"Anton I just want to ..."

"Your presence will ruin my relationship with Mery, I will soon be engaged to her. Please, don't bother me. Didn't you have a fiancee? Possibly ... You have a child now, right?" anton mocked him.

Ara fell silent while biting her lips in annoyance at her anger she endured when Anton initially kicked her out by scolding Wilky. He clasped Wilky's hand so tightly that Wilky felt a little surprised. Anton was silent at once to see Ara's hand holding Wilky's, seeing that Wilky was holding back the pain of Ara.

"Wil, you're going up now!" tell Anton in a slow tone.

Wilky nodded and glanced at Ara, he immediately let go of Wilky's hand with a sense of force. Anton grinned and went down the stairs.

"Your son is how old he is, hehe .." he sneered closer to Ara. "Well 6 years or 7 years? Or ..." Next truncated.

"Enough Anton! I haven't been with him in a long time, because he ... He died in an accident," replied Ara annoyed, she could no longer stem his anger and tears.

Anton was surprised, he was so distrustful of what Ara said. But he also couldn't possibly lie to her just because of Anton. Anton feels guilty with Ara for having offended him because he used to be hurt by the choice of his parents while Ara left him without leaving a word. That's what made Anton feel unappreciated as a man.
