Brother But Stupid

CHAPTER 25

In the morning, as Nayla was getting ready to go to work, she walked down the stairs.

However, Suddenly the mother blocked her step just as she was in the dining room, about to head to the garage.

“What's bun?” nayla's forehead wrinkled in wonder.

“Nih...” Mommy offers a backstab to Nayla.

Nayla looks confused, “Today I no longer want to bring stock bun. You shoot me outside and I'll eat outside.

“Where is the location?” ask mother again.

“Kemang.”

“Good.” Mother also handed the bushel to Nayla by force.

Even confused Nayla was forced to accept the bushel, “apanya good, bun?”

“This bushel is not for you. But for Riki...," said the mother, "because the direction of the kemang and Riki's apartment is the same, so you take this food to Riki, well.”

“But bun, later I can be late..” reject Nayla, because she does not want to meet the man again.

“Darling, it's just for a minute. You won't be late." argued the mother again, "don't you feel sorry for your brother? he is sick.”

Forehead Nayla wrinkled wonder, “Mothers know Riki is sick, from whom?”

“From Aldi..," replied the mother, "he called and told the mother that Riki was sick all night. Aldi also said that the mother's child had not eaten and would not eat."

"mother is very worried, Nay. But Mother also could not visit him. You know, if Rina is also sick, and the child is very fussy if it hurts like this.” Mother's words seemed to be begging.

The look on Nayla's face was doubtful, her heart was very refusing to come to Riki's place and meet the man, it was enough that she was upset and cried yesterday, because of Riki's actions.

But, he also could not refuse his mother's request.

“Come son. Just a moment, you just go inside and prepare this food for Riki, after that you can go directly,” said mother again.

“You cannot choose your own brother. You take good care of Rina, it should be to Riki as well. moreover you are the twins mother..,” she continued with a clear look.

Nayla sighed heavily, “iya, I will stop by for a while to give her this food.”

“That's dong, this is your new daughter. As brothers we should care for each other.” Mother gave advice again.

“Iya bun.” Nayla grabs her mother's hand and kisses the back of her hand, “I go, assalamu’alaikum.”

“Wa’alaikumussalam. Be careful on the road dear.” Mother looked at the back of Nayla who walked into the garage.

“Iya bun.” Nayla disappeared from behind the garage door.

Riki looks pensive in the dining room alone, while holding a bottle of drinking water.

His handsome face looked very sad as well as his heart and mind.

The man was thinking about his own mistakes. Well the man regretted his actions, all this time to Nayla.

As Aldi said yesterday, if he only blames Nayla for the suffering he has been through.

The man never intended to blame Nayla, he was only disappointed with the girl, because when she suffered inner pressure by her father. She desperately needs a friend and that is Nayla.

But he did not expect, if his disappointment ended up hurting the feelings of Nayla who knew absolutely nothing about her problem.

Riki also confirmed Aldi's words, if in fact he needed the girl. Well he did always need Nayla, desperately need her a long time ago, only that his conscience was blinded by his own selfishness.

The man cursed himself, only to realize his mistake now.

Ting. keg…

Riki gasped and regained consciousness from his mind, when he heard the sound of his apartment bell ringing.

The look of his face looks confused, about who comes to visit early in the morning to his house, the article that always comes to his house is only Aldi. But where ever his best friend pressed the bell.

But the man had not found the answer, suddenly the man furrowed in wonder, when he saw a girl walking in and approached him, the girl was Nayla.

Although the look on Riki's face looked confused, but she was very happy to see the girl coming to her place. That means the girl is not completely angry with him and Aldi is right, if the girl is a kind girl.

Riki continued to stare at Nayla, who seemed to ignore her. Even the calm-looking beautiful girl had never looked at him as if she had not seen his presence in the room.

Now the girl looked busy, moving the contents of the bushel she was carrying to the plate and bowl.

After that, he then served it in front of Riki. The girl is seen investigating the results of her work and after feeling that her task is done, she leaves Riki again.

Riki further furrowed in wonder, the girl really did not consider herself to exist.

“Nay...” cried when Nayla was almost out of the dining room.

Nayla's steps stopped, but did not turn to look at Riki, “you just calm down, the food was not me who made it, but mother. So you can enjoy it, without worrying. excuse me.” Nayla spoke in a flat tone and then stepped back on her feet.

“I'm sorry Nay.”

Nayla stopped again, her face looked astonished after hearing Riki's words just now.

“I hope you said that sentence in a conscious state" said Nayla flatly.

Riki wrinkled in wonder, “What do you mean Nay? I was conscious when I said it... So I beg you to forgive me..” Riki's voice sounded pleading.

Nayla was still shaking with roaring breath and chest cavity beating pain, the girl's eyes began to glaze over. He was very hopeful, this time the man was really sincere in saying those words.

“I'm indeed selfish, Nay.” Riki walked slowly towards the girl who was on her back.

“Pardon all my mistakes, Nay..," Riki's tone of voice grew more and more subtle barely audible.

"I'm very selfish. I always blame you and hurt you.”

Nayla was shocked when Riki stood right in front of her with a very sad look on her face.

“I'm sorry Nay, I'm a proud and very stubborn man. I need you to always be by my side.I'm sorry Nay.”.

Riki's body suddenly suffocated, her tears began to fall very profusely. His face looks sorry.

While Nayla who had a soft heart was increasingly unbearable, seeing Riki who looked very begging and regretful.

The girl rubbed Riki's tears gently and hugged the man.

“Don't cry, Ki.. I'm sorry you.. I'm sorry, too, because I'm not a good friend and brother, until you've suffered all this time…." Nayla stroked Riki's back gently.

Riki further tightened his embrace, “You are not wrong Nay, I am selfish. forgive me…."

“Iya I forgive you, Rik. Now stop crying.”

Riki buried her face in the recess of Nayla's neck and wept even more in the girl's arms.

The moment that happened right now looks the same as when they were little. When Riki was sad and crying, Nayla who was always by his side, the girl would hug the man warmly and calm him down.
