Between Me and Brother

Season 2, chapter 75

****

The funeral home has mounted a yellow flag, the house has begun to bustle with neighbors who are praying for Tery. Various chants of the Qur'an verse sounded softly in the ears of none other than surah yasin.

Tery's body was in a crowd of people teaching. Umi leaned against the door while leaving the sound of crying, as well as Abi who was busy taking care of the grave that was in the excavation. Indra nailed the child in his daydreams and Indra immediately glanced at Mery who was teaching.

"What are you staring at?" anton mediates Indra's view. Adelia stared coldly dislike the arrival of Anton. "No need to be selfish for love affairs, actually you still like Mery? And maybe you think Mery's now protected by Dev? It's hard to face it. But you won't be able to face it."

Instantly Anton sat next to Mery following the recitation of the Qur'an. Mery sees Adelia in her father's lap. But Adelia's face looks flat staring at her mother. Either in his heart crying or how. Clearly looking at Adelia, Mery seemed to see her brother back.

"Oh Allah, if only Adelia didn't hate me. I will take care of him with all my soul, just as my brother loved me as a child. He always looked after me without any injuries, when I was hurt he would feel more sad than the injured. O Allah, may my brother be by your side, forgive him all his sins and accept him in worship. Aamiin," muttered Mery inwardly as he prayed for his brother.

The cloudy weather enveloped the capital city of Jakarta. The clouds appear blackened, it looks like it will rain heavily in the morning. Umi sat at the dining table while staring at the wall decorated by photos. Mery looked at him and the photo, when we were fifteen, looked very familiar and without feeling the problems that had occurred months and years.

Mery realized, that losing someone is indeed very sad. At the time of Tery's burial, no one in the family went to the funeral except Dev. Dev along with Vivian who follows and leads Tery's diet. Umi could not see the child buried in the ground. Even the dark. Umi could not imagine it all, so from then on there was no one Tery family no one followed him.

Hotelis...

Dev and Vivian sit at the dinner table talking about Tery's death. Vivian was still investigating a few hours ago and now the documents about her and the cctv in the ICU room are still active since Tery entered the room. Dev tried to turn on the DVD.

In the video taken from the cctv, Ara forced a doctor and threatened about her work as well as her family. Dev stared coldly at Ara, the demonic woman had entered Dev's trap. Which is nothing but a famous doctor abroad as well as his city.

"How do you respond, Dev?" vivian asked still staring at the documents he had in his grasp.

"We have to trap Ara through Anton. If Anton can take her to our hotel, then he can't go anywhere. Except run away and become a police fugitive. I don't care if he lives or dies at my hands. What is clear is that he has hurt my two best friends" said Dev coldly.

"Okay, what about my return?" ask Vivian again.

"When did you miss your husband? Come on, help me out for a second. If not your expertise. I might call you so far!" tejek Dev is still single.

"Dev~ you know that. I just got married a month ago. And you attended it too, you also got a bouquet of wedding flowers. So, when are you getting married? You're old enough to be a father." Vivian tries to pry at Dev's heart, has long been friends with him but Dev never once liked a woman. Vivian thinks Dev is gay. But actually no, he likes his old man. "Do you like any of them, Dev?"

"What are you talking about? We're discussing a case, not a soul mate!" exclaim Dev upset.

"Why are you so upset, Dev. I'm just asking if you like them or not. That's all!" reply Vivian defend herself.

"It doesn't matter Vi, I'm just a best friend in her eyes. Not more and not less, ahh already~ forget that problem. We're back to the beginning." Dev tried to cover his heart, only Vivian could feel what kind of person Dev was. Tery and Mery knew Dev as children, but not as adults. Vivian understood Dev's feelings. But he sacrificed everything.

"Dev, what about him? Should we hide it?"

"Vivian, you have so many questions. About him letting us do it. We're expert doctors, don't let him always feel pain" Dev said trying to convince himself. Vivian nodded, then turned off the video that had been playing for a long time. Dev then bounces back to Mery's house, seeing Vivian almost teasing him again but Dev avoids her.

****

One month later, Tery's loss began to be a little less pronounced. Umi and Abi have confirmed the departure of Tery as well as Indra. The big suitcase is in front of the house, the senses say goodbye at home with Adelia. He could not live with his in-laws while the actual house was in another city.

"Umi, are you feeling good?" said Indra kissed Umi's hand and with a smile, Umi nodded off. "Abi, senses first yes. Indra took Adelia," he continued, kissing Abi's hand and hugging her.

"Yes go, take good care of my grandchildren huh?" abi said slightly teary-eyed and smilingly looking at Adelia and Indra. "At Mery's wedding I hope you attend as Mery's sister-in-law huh, Ndra?"

Mery smiled to let Indra go even though she felt a little lost because Adelia also went with her. Adelia still remained silent with Mery never talking to her at all. Dev stands right behind Mery staring coldly at Adelia. He did not care to even turn his head and continued holding a small red bag with a barbie picture.

"That child is very difficult in pelototokin," said Dev annoyed.

"Dev~ what are you doing. Let it go" said Mery elbowing Dev's stomach.

"I thought you were gonna defend him!" said Dev jealous of Mery's concern with Adelia. Mery shook his head, acting like a child before Mery was used to seeing Dev that way.

The sun began to appear on the surface, the senses had to quickly get to the airport. Without anyone delivering it Indra kept smiling releasing their departure. Maybe one or two years they will return to Jakarta. Dev smiled taking off a small laugh, seeing that the two people who really upset him had already gone to set foot here.

"Dad, will Aunt Mery be angry with Adelia?" adelia asked, sitting quietly in the taxi. Indra turned to smile at her, and gently stroked Adelia's hair.

"Maybe not, your aunt is a special person. He never once felt a grudge against others. Especially with you, the person she loves the most."

"really?" adelia said to make sure.

"Yes, sure." Indra immediately looked sad on her face.

Staring at the glass window of the car stared at the activities of people outside, the car that strayed and the small two-wheeled vehicle beside it. Indra remembered when she was still expressing love for Mery. However, there was an ironic mistake for Mery. But Mery was so strong and strong. He can beat all his heart. Compared to Indra who is still weak in faith. Indra still secretly harbors feelings for Mery.

"Did you ever like him?"

Deg, a question that could very well read the mind of a father. Indra was immediately shocked when Adelia asked a question that should not be spoken by a child her age.

"No, baby, don't joke!" indra exclaimed nervously, cold sweat sweat immediately dripped on the hand of Adelia who was tightly grasping the hand of the father.

"Dad don't lie! Dad's face says that I love Aunt Mery very much, actually I don't love you either, right?" adelia said gently to confirm it again to Indra.

"Darling, how do you know that soa?" indra was nervous.

Adelia was silent again. Staring at the streets that are slightly visible because Adelia's small body is difficult to see the breadth of the road ahead. Indra was stunned to dream of what was urged by Adelia the beloved child. Indra actually already felt calm because nothing could block the path of his love. But unfortunately Indra is a little late step with Anton.

****

It was started by Anton and Mery. They shopped for wedding rings at designers who used to design a wedding that belonged to Anton's uncle. After the departure of Indra and Adelia. An hour later Anton picked up with his sports car. Mery feels happy that she is finally getting married to the person she likes.

One of the wedding shops has left Mery's eyes wide open. Mery immediately pulled Anton into the store. The wedding shoes looked very elegant, Mery liked the shoes, but Anton did not approve of them.

"The shoes are not good, Mery!" anton shook his head.

"But it looks beautiful Anton, let's see. Nice right?" said Mery smiling while wearing the shoes and styling in front of Anton.

"No, not Mery. That's too short. Our wedding should be extravagant and you should look beautiful" Anton's soft tone put on a face not happy to see shoes that are short about 1cm only.

"You should know, marriage doesn't always have to be fancy. I just hope our marriage goes well" said Mery, smilingly raising his eyebrows repeatedly. Anton chuckled slightly staring at the unique face on Mery. "Hey, why are you laughing, huh?" he stared coldly.

"When did you call me hey, you, you, anton, you,? Is there not a slightly romantic call for me, dear Mery~" Anton's seductive approach and face to face. The manager of the store immediately felt ashamed of himself because he saw the two couples making out in front of him.

"Anton! Keep away! Your face!" mery gritted her teeth, "Hehehe, sorry!" mery's apology to the store manager. Mery immediately pulled Anton's ear to realize what he was doing in a public place.

They are not even his muhrim. Mery has always kept her distance but Anton can't wait to get married to Mery. Mery smiled with a small laugh, after pulling Anton's ear. Mery ran quickly to avoid him. Anton chases after Mery while laughing at her.

The steam of coffee smelled fragrant, the cup of coffee is still full. Dev hasn't sipped the coffee in the afternoon. Either in his residence thought of something very heavy. Vivian stared at Dev from the living room since noon Dev came to visit Vivian. But there was not a word spoken by his lips.

Vivian comes over to Dev trying to ask what is going on so she goes into a gloomy silence by the window. He took a cup of coffee that had been prepared five minutes ago.

"Something seems to be upset, right?" sindir Vivian, while offering coffee.

"Yes, start the buggers coming. Your husband won't come here?" tanya Dev tried to turn the conversation away.

"Oh yes! One more hour, Dev. I have to go now." Vivian immediately realized even the flight of the husband will soon arrive in Indonesia. One hour Vivian time went to the airport. In a hurry, Vivian immediately took the pink bag and immediately followed the husband nervously running fast.

"Yes, this is better. Alone and quiet .." said Dev softly staring at the door that Vivian had just walked out of.

The sound of footsteps rang out from Wilky's room, he was working on the job. At home, only the waiter. That too they are time to rest. Wilky was curious about the sound of the footsteps. His voice sounded very clear and close to Wilky's room. Wilky thought that it was Anton who had just come home from shopping with Mery. But on the other hand, the sound of footsteps was not the sound of men's shoes. Except for the sound of women's shoes heels measuring 3cm.

Later, Wilky rushes up the bed to knock himself down to pretend to be asleep. The sound of footsteps stopped right in front of Wilky's door. He began to worry, cold sweat accompanying his fear.

Print~ Sound door open. Wilky forgot to pick up his phone left on the desk. Someone walked slowly and very carefully. He's standing right in Wilky's desk drawer. Female form. Wearing a short dress, having blond hair and long wavy. The man secretly took Wilky's cell phone. Check the content of messages in social media.

Wilky's carelessness was rare, but this time he forgot to lock his phone. The person slightly let out a faint sobbing sound. Wilky was terrified, thinking that the man was the ghost of his mother.

Brumm~ Anton's car sounds faintly from Wilky's room. The woman immediately walked quickly looking at the lower terrace. And right, there's Anton and Mery laughing. They look happy carrying their groceries.

"Not know yourself! Just look at Mery, I'm going to exterminate the people you love, especially Anton." The heavy voice had taken hold of him. The middle-aged woman came straight out of Wilky's room, and rushed out of Anton's house.

"That's ... That ... Is that woman a ghost? Oh, my God, he was crying looking at my phone. What he saw!" wilky muttered straight out of bed and walked towards his desk. Cell phone's still on. Seen on the screen Wilky's phone is written in bright red on his social media. "I'll kill you!" writing on social media Wilky then sent it to Anton. Wilky was shocked and scared.

The woman seems to be very vengeful with her brother, Wilky doesn't know how to tell Anton. The message was read by the recipient. Wilky must explain to Anton that his house has been entered by a female ghost.

"Sister Antoonnn!!!" wilky shouted from the cubicle of his bedroom door.

All the servants who were resting in his room immediately ran to Wilky's room to see what was going on. Anton and Mery hear the brother screaming from the car garage. They looked at each other face to face and immediately ran over regardless of her groceries being thrown scattered on the floor as they tried to run.

"Wilky? Wil, what's going on? Where are u?" anton shouted running down the stairs followed by Mery. When Anton got to the front of his room, the waiter was already crowding Wilky's room. "What's going on?" ask Anton worriedly.

"Tu ... Sir, we don't know either. When we got here, she was lying unconscious at the door!" nervous one of the waiters was trembling. Anton who heard it was very upset and furious at his servant who was guarding Wilky was very untrue. Even fainting they do not know so only in the pelototti only.

"Anton. Hurry along! Pick up Wilky and get me some eucalyptus oil and a glass of water, too" said Mery, asking the waiter for help. They nodded, and immediately ran to fulfill the order while fleeing from Anton.

"Wil, wake wil!" call Anton to Wilky. Mery sees Wilky's phone still on and stares at his screen. It appears that Wilky sent a message to Anton and it says threatening to kill him. Mery is shocked and immediately offers Anton the contents of the phone. Instantly Anton fell silent, looking at his phone in his pants pocket. Anton sees that his phone accidentally opens a message from Wilky himself.

"What does this mean?" mery asked worriedly and worriedly.

"Don't think too much, it's possible that Wilky accidentally sent that message!" anton tried to think positively about his brother.

Instantly the petite servant came to bring a glass of water and beside him was eucalyptus oil. Without being told, the waiter offered his luggage. Mery looked at her and smiled at her, not forgetting to thank her.

"Ehm... This .. Where's where?" he looked at all the rooms in his own room, anton and Mery looking at each other. And try to ask Wilky something.

"Wil, why are you sending this message?" anton said while showing his cellphone that was threatened with death.

Wilky shook his head, his face looking red. "That's not me sister, that's the woman who wrote .." Wilky said. Anton was immediately confused by what the woman said. Not long after, wilky hugged Mery tightly. "Mer, please take care of Anton. I'm afraid she's happened to him. I beg ... Hiks," he said, crying in his arms.

"You mean, is someone else coming into your room?" tanya Anton tried to introgate the sister, Mery immediately held Anton's hand and shook his head while hinting that the question should not be continued. Fear makes Wilky very contaminating Anton's situation. "Alright, calm down Wil. Brother here, don't worry okay?"
