Wedding News

Two days after the incident, I spent time in the room alone. During that time I didn't work to take care of the store.

This thought drifted far away somewhere. Sharing things just pops up. Something that didn't happen made me so scared. Strongly, I squeezed the chest back in pain. Sweat began to adorn the temples and forehead.

"Sir. Eat first, Yuk!"

I can hear you coming into my room. In my heart I give thanks. I need guidance to regulate my increasingly congested breath.

"Dad!"

He took my hand. "Close your eyes. Take a deep breath, ok. Well, so. Remove it from the mouth slowly. Come on, do it over and over until you're really comfortable."

With the instructions you gave me, I can now breathe again. Relieved it.

"Don't think of anything that hasn't happened. It precedes God" he said, wiping away the light on my face.

"Strengthen yourself first. After that, my brother will tell me everything. How could little maura come into this world. Then about–"

"What would happen if you knew?"

My hand stopped after hearing my question. He may be trying to calm down, but I know he's anxious and scared. Yes, mommy would be very angry of course. What's more, mommy won't agree even if you want to take responsibility for the woman.

"Angt ... What if mom gets angry? Mami would definitely not agree if you would marry that woman. Mami must be ...."

"Sir. Slowly. Set his breath, ok."

My eyes are back closed. Trying to regulate the breathing that again feels tight.

"Name Santi. Mother of maura. He just asked for help to get my brother to support our son. My brother has no intention of marrying her. Mommy doesn't need to know about this, Deck. It's just enough of us. Brother just wants to guarantee his needs."

Now I cry as I am. Secengen that's me. Thinking that you were going to marry that woman scared me so much.

The marriage will make my brother and mother quarrel. In the end, you will be frustrated again. Play the game until he faints again. Maybe there'll be something worse than just passing out. I don't want to lose him.

"Don't think too far. Brother's fine, Dek," he whispered as he grabbed my body.

There's an incredible relief I feel. My world is back alive. It feels light and refreshing.

*****

No one brought up the matter of Abang to Mami and Papi when they returned. Everything went as usual. As if nothing ever happened. Relieved it.

We only got together at dinner. The rest are busy with their own work. Especially morning. Mami and Papi sometimes leave before one of us wakes up.

Sawang. What people see is not necessarily the truth. I'm example. Born from a family of being, which one must think is very good. In fact, there is something missing in this family. That's time. We lost time with family. The loss of togetherness that we were supposed to go through in joy.

Lucky I have a brother and sister who really care and care for me.

Different than today. Mami asked the three of us to come home at lunch. Except Brother. The time is inflexible. His work is related to human life that nothing can bargain for.

"We'll just start lunch. Just leave Arga, anyway. He can't be disturbed."

"What's up, Mi? Tumben we had lunch together. There must be something. Aren't you?"

"Pinter Mami's daughter. Sok, Papi's the one who announced."

Papi bertehem's. "In the near future, our house will have a wedding."

Not only me, but Brother was also surprised not to play. Our mouths are both wide open.

"Helmi is getting married to Lidya. She's Papi's friend's daughter from Tasikmalaya."

"Helmi, why?" papi asked as Big Brother rushed up to me with an anxious look on his face.

"No, Pi. Yesterday the shortness of breath naya relapsed. Helmi's afraid it's happening again now."

"No! You look fine."

My brother and I were talking to each other. We were both amazed by my good condition.

"Aren't you breathing? Your chest is sick?" Brother grabbed the hair boy that covered my forehead. He made sure I was sweating or not.

"Thank God. You're fine."

"That means ... Ade you agree her brother will get married."

"Yes, Mi," I hesitated.

"Lord!"

I immediately ran when I heard the scream from Big Brother. The hardest torture of hers was tickling my stomach. As much as possible I should avoid him so that he doesn't get to me.

"Toloooong, Brother!"

It felt like I was going to be pounced on by a tiger, yes even though I myself never felt it.

"Review you, Deck!"

"You guys, stop dong. It's old loh. With age." Mom screams.

We don't care. Brother is still chasing and I am still trying to dodge.

Weary. My breath is almost over. I didn't move so fast. However, I was still lucky that Brother came and protected me when he almost got caught by Brother.

"Udah, Brother. He's out of breath. Kasian!"

"Ga, he's really picky." Stammered sister. His breath was as hunting as me. "He can be whiny and faint from being anxious about you. Lah, he was even carefree so fit know his brother wants to marry the same girl who only knows a glimpse of doang."

"Haw? Who?"

"Bao. Brother wants to get married in a minute. He's been betrothed to our parents." I am the same. Finish talking, immediately take cover again behind Brother's back.

"Wahh. Cool! Congratulations, yes, Brother."

"Isa. The insolent! Mami, why give birth to these two sisters, anyway?"

"Auguro ...." Step one thousand was the best choice that my brother and I had taken. Go into the room and lock it. No matter the door is pushed from the outside. With a scream full of maki. We inside just laughed out loud hearing Big Brother's annoyance.

I also felt strange, there was no anxiety that I felt when I heard the news that Brother was getting married, unlike Brother who suddenly had a child. Imagining her getting married and leaving this house left me helpless.

"But you're fine, Dek. Not worried or anything."

"Okay, maybe because it's time she got married. Do you want to be single for life? cassian."

"Certainly, why did you faint yesterday? you're afraid you're married to that woman, aren't you?"

"Maybe it's because .. it's because I feel like he can't take care of Brother properly. I don't want you guys to get the wrong woman. They should be more able to care for and love you more than my race."

"Dek .. hopefully your future husband will be someone who has greater affection than what you feel today."

We laughed again when we heard Brother still nagging from outside my room.
