Brother But Stupid

CHAPTER 14

“Ki... You didn't let him in? Poor... he must have been waiting for you since..”.

Nayla said as she continued to walk behind the man. But Riki did not heed Nayla's words, he just kept walking and ignored Nayla.

“What is that woman? why do you look so ben…

“Stop asking...” Riki stopped his steps “this is none of your business!” Riki turned to look at Nayla sharply.

Once again Nayla closed her lips tightly.

After saying that, Riki again continued her steps towards her room to put Rina down, while Nayla stopped following Riki and just stared at the man's back until she disappeared.

“Stop asking... because it's none of your business!” Nayla repeated Riki's words just now, with an annoyed look on her face.

“It looks like the man is suffering from a mental disorder..” He grunts again and sits on the living room couch.

Nayla leaned her body on the back of the sofa while occasionally looking towards the apartment door.

To be honest, Nayla's mind is on the girl who is out there, whether the girl is gone or still there.

He should open the door and ask her to come in. But how could he not be the owner of this house.

“Why are you sitting there?”

Nayla turned to Riki who had already come out of her room and was still looking at her with a flat gaze.

“Then I have to sit where?” Nayla got up from her seat.

Riki let out a frustrated sigh, the girl is completely innocent, “go to the dressing room and change your clothes with the clothes that are there,” ketus Riki then leave Nayla inside.

Nayla was still unmoved, thinking about every remark from Riki. Why did the man send her to his dressing room, as if Riki knew if the girl knew the ins and outs of her house.

Did Riki know? But where does the man know? The questions kept coming to his head. He tried to find the answer but was deadlocked.

“Why are you still standing there?”

Nayla's body gasped at Riki's sudden voice.

“Do you wait, I show you where the place is, as if you do not know every ins and outs of this house… have you not always had the clothes of the woman scattered in my room and have you not washed them

Nayla was unmoved with her head lowered, she could not put up any resistance now. He was already caught and Riki was already very angry at him.

BRACKET...

Nayla gasped again when she heard an object falling right in front of her. The girl stared at the object that Riki had thrown right in front of her.

“Go from here and take away also the trash... never come here again.. this is the last time I give you a warning.” Ketus Riki again.

“I don't want.” Challenge Nayla.

“Do not argue! I really don't like it, if a stranger comes in and interferes with my privacy,” Riki turns around about to leave.

“I am not a stranger.. I am your family.”.

“ENOUGH!!!” furious Riki half-screaming makes Nayla surprised, “We are not family.”

The look on Nayla's face turned soft with eyes that were already very teary.

His heart was deeply hurt when Riki said that sentence. He himself also did not understand his own feelings, why he was so sad when Riki did not consider him brother instead considered himself like a stranger.

Maybe because they have grown together and are always together to cause such an inner bond. But why is he the only one who feels this pain and Riki does not.

“Until when will you behave like this same me, Ki?” Nayla's tears started to drip, “iya I admit my mistake and I'm sorry... I was wrong, I wasn't on your side when you were in trouble, but why don't you forgive me at all..”.

“No need to discuss that anymore.. not important!” ketus Riki's.

“If you consider it no longer important...why are you still angry with me? Why, Ki?”

“Because I hate being pitied by you.” Riki's jaw is hardened, “stop being like this, because I don't need pity.”

Nayla again raised her gaze, “who said I did this out of pity for you.. I sincerely do this, Ki.”.

Riki stared intently at Nayla again and slowly approached her, “I did not see the slightest bit of sincerity Riki grinned, “but it should be like that, you should always be in this guilt Grieved Riki again.

Nayla who had just looked down and cried raised her gaze to Riki. Nayla's brown bead pierced through Riki's black bead sharply, suddenly a feeling of anger enveloped her.

“It turns out you are a very selfish man,” Nayla growled with tears, “you only think about yourself, you blame me for what has happened to you in the past? Aren't you thinking, how have I lived all this time?”

“Do you remember?” Nayla stepped closer to Riki with a look of guts, “the promise involves not only me, but also you… but did you forget? If you say the same thing, you say if I don't come, you'll come to see me.. But what, Ki? You didn't even come and didn't give me any news though. so, not only am I the one who disavowed but you are also.” Nayla's breathless roar held the tightness in her chest and Riki simply shook her head.

“And when I came, you never once asked me how I was? How do I live my life all this time, am I okay or vice versa? You never ask, whether all this time I was happy or suffering.” Nayla's neck choked and more sobbing, “You only think of yourself, Ki… blame me for the wounds you have been through so far, then, you think I am fine, I am much more hurt, Ki...,” Nayla covered her face with her hands and returned crying with a sobbing.

Riki who watched Nayla cry in front of him also felt sorry, “Nay Riki's outstretched hand was about to touch Nayla's shoulder, but the girl immediately raised her hand into the air to prevent the man's movement.

Nayla took a deep breath to neutralize her own feelings, even though it was still very painful. Slowly the girl looked back at Riki, then said.

“Ok... if behaving like a stranger will make you comfortable, I will... I will stop acting as your brother from now on.. I will behave as you wish..” Tandas Nayla then ran out leaving Riki who was still unmoved in his place.
