Falling in Love With My Brother

Tight El

"Where to go, at this hour to the station, alone again. Danger for your rich pretty girl to go alone" asked the mother while advising El.

"You go home to the city ma'am, yesterday three days eyang, this morning I have to get to the city, because tomorrow there is school activities" El lied a little. And the mother was a mangosteen.

"But why yourself. Not the same old man? said the mother again.

"Old man?! I just lost my family" El looked down inside.

"Dad is dead, mother still lives in the house" said El sadly.

"Mom pray you are safe until your destination is nan" the mother smiled, reminding her again.

Their journey took almost an hour, after arriving in front of the station the driver stopped the speed of his car.

"It's gone" said the father.

"Yes sir, thank you.. I have to pay how much sir? el asked as he pulled out his wallet from inside his bag.

"Ga son, we're all together, not a car rental" the mother said with a laugh.

"There's still a lot of ma'am, I'm sorry I took it" El said as he pushed the door from the inside.

"Yes, take my son, boiled beans with boiled corn, enough to make a snack on the road" said the mother while handing a plastic bag to El.

"Get me, thank you" El pushed back the plastic bag.

"Let's kid, you'll be hungry on the road, let's go get it" the mother said as she grabbed El's hand.

"Thank you many ma'am" El nodded politely, while pushing to close the door.

"Ati-ati on the street huh son" said the mother, leaving El who was still standing while waving her hand.

"What time is the ticket to the city?" ask El after entering the ticketing counter.

"Yes" said El while nodding.

"It's still a little long, brother, it's still thirty, at the earliest" the father replied after searching for him on the computer.

"The house people haven't woken up yet, there's no way they've been looking for me up here" El thought.

"How much is the ticket, sir?" El remembers not bringing much cash in his wallet.

"It's at thirty, the business train costs three hundred and fifty. If the next one is at three five five, the economic price is one hundred and seventy-five feet" replied the father again.

"I take the economic one sir" said El while spending money in his wallet and his ID card.

"The return is twenty-five thousand kak, and this is his ID card. Thank you" replied the father, crossing his right hand. El nodded with a smile, then walked towards the platform.

The security guard checks El's ticket, researching the time and date.

"Sorry brother, for this departure wait thirty minutes more may enter. Please wait in the waiting room" the security guard said as he pointed at the waiting room with his hands politely.

"Alright sir, thank you" El said with a smile.

In the waiting room there were only a few people, El's seat was empty, his feet were all over the empty bench. El just realized that his stomach from yesterday has not been filled.

"Huuufft. Then she remembered the plastic bag she had given her.

:Foods also fill the stomach, corn, boiled beans the same sweet potato." El immediately opened and ate it.

Thirty minutes later El was aware of a call for passengers on a train to the city. Before he entered, he bought mineral water in a mini market located behind his seat.

El immediately walked inside while thrusting his ID card and ticket towards the guarding officer.

"Please enter" said the guard officer.

"Thank you sir" said El stepped in waiting for the train that was coming soon.
