He Is Not My Brother's

He Is Not My Brother's
The Larry's



Amy looks restless in that green room. It really sucks to be in that room. The vase that usually contains colorful flowers now only contains water leftover from the flower bath. The wooden table also looked so disheveled and unkempt, not as usual.


The door opened and Mrs.Larry appeared with a black blouse and a black skirt. It's like mourning. His eyes look tired and have pockets. His glasses were unable to hide the dark circles around Mrs' eyes. Larry's the brown one.


"So, Amy, is your language value down?"


"Actually, it's only down 0.7 really."


"Ehm, last month you scored 9.4 and then last only got 8.7. You have a problem with language?"


"No."


"Why did your value decrease? Don't you like your new teacher?"


"I like Mr. Andi."


"Alright ... Then tell me how you learned last time."


Amy was silent for a moment. "Umm .. I did some practice before the test, also learned some magic."


"That's all? Why just a magazine?"


"Because chapter 4 does address hyperbole, sarcasm, amelioration, personification and several other subjects."


"Back at school you have to stop by the library and learn the language for an hour, every day."


"What's? I can fix it next month."


Mrs. Larry stood up and opened the door. "No bargaining, Miss. You're done. Please go back to class."


Amy stepped straight into the classroom. Face's bent. He condemned Jimmi who was the cause of all the punishments he had to run from Mrs. Larry's been this past week, ever since Jimmi came home.


Mrs. Larry thinks Amy and M are allied with Jimmi. They are thought to have hidden Jimmi on purpose in their home. Jimmi came by that Sunday afternoon. If Jimmi hadn't stayed at my house, Amy thought, I wouldn't have been accused of hiding the bad boy.


"Now look at us, M. Always an easy target Mrs. Larry. I didn't stay here long" Amy said in the library, just after school broke up.


"Well how else? My biological value has plummeted." M took out a thick book from the shelf.


"Your value dropped?"


"It's only 6."


"You should be punished. My language is 8.7 but still I'm punished. That's still good." Amy squeezed a page of the book in front of her.


"Actually Mrs. Larry also punishes me for running 20 times around the field every morning."


"What does this have to do with biology?"


M stopped reading his book, "He said my game in the last basketball game wasn't good, so I had to add physical exercise."


"What's right, he punishes brother for that? Ish ... sucks!" Amy hit the table because of emotion.


"Hey ..., that's right there! Don't be noisy!" the library guard pointed towards Amy and M.


"I'm sorry ..," said Amy slowly, nodding her head.


"Basic sloppy," mocked.


"By the way, where is Jimmi? Because of him I have to mop and brush and have to be here every day."


"It looks like he's also been sentenced to Mrs. Larry. He'll have to take care of the school garden until the end of the semester."


"That's it, brother?"


"Say Jimmi's pocket money was reduced this month."


"Hyaaa .. We won't get any more deals then?"


M just raised his eyebrows while shrugging his shoulders.


"When will we be punished?"


"Until you shut up and start studying the book you're holding!"


Amy and M both look at the person who just spoke. Mrs. Larry! The two of them immediately lowered their heads and began to pay attention to the word for word that was inside the book.

"Norwegian ...."


"Hi, Jimm! Are you off duty?" tanya M was a bit surprised to see Jimmy coming. He should have kept his father's shop as one of the punishments for going the other day.


"Mom told me to pick you up."


"For what?"


"You and Amy were invited to dinner at our house."


"Huh?" Amy and M exchanged a glance.


"Well, that's how it is ...."


"How so? You know what? Your mother was cruel to us. And that's because of you!" lick Amy.


"Yes, that's why he wanted to apologize" Jimmi said. A tone of regret was clearly heard in his voice. "I'm sorry to you both. Sorry to bother."


"It's okay. We're coming."


"So good-natured brother" Amy protested.


"You have to follow the example" muttered Jimmi.


"Tonight there's black pepper cows and seafood .. squid-burn" whispered Jimmi.


M looked at Amy. He knew Amy couldn't resist the grilled squid. His sister just frowned while turning her back to get into the room.


"alright. I had to come!"


M and Jimmi smile at Amy's childish behavior.

That night Amy and M come to the Jimmi family home in very polite clothes. Seen doubt from the faces of the two when entering the yard of the house that is quite large.


"I'm not sure I'm going in" Amy said.


"Oh, is there something wrong with my house?" Jimmi pulls the arms of the two brothers into his house.


The guest room left Amy and M a little stunned. Although not as grand as Ollie's house, it still impresses them. Although only a few hundred meters away from their home, M and Amy have barely entered the house since it was renovated three months ago. Even Jimmi who often come and stay in their narrow house.


"If I were you, Jimm, I wouldn't want to stay in people's homes. I definitely feel at home in this house, "murm Amy as she looks at the soft chairs in this room.


Jimmi just smiled a little. "Follow me."


M and Amy follow Jimmi who steps in front of them towards a room near the stairs.


"This is your room?" tanya M after seeing a Dexter poster mounted obliquely on the door of the room.


"Yes, this is my new room."


Amy precedes her brother to go inside. Jimmi's room is spacious. White with some posters on the wall along with three guitars. A large wardrobe is in the corner of the room. The bed is soft and an LCD is attached to the ceiling of his room.


"Cool!" scream Amy.


"No, I think your house is so much cooler."


"You must be kidding me, Jimm." M saw one of the guitars mounted on the wall. "I've never seen this one before." M pointed at a black metal electric guitar with blood-red details.


"Oh .. It was bought by Fohn last month" Jimmi said.


"What is the LED screen on?" Amy laid her body staring at the sky of the room.


"Excuse me, boys, dinner's ready." A man with a tall body and glasses was already in the doorway.


Amy hurriedly got up and stood up. The man just smiled sweetly at Amy's somewhat disheveled hair.


"Come, Mom and Dad are waiting!"

"M, Amy, we're sorry that Jimmi's been bothering you all this time."


"We don't feel bothered, really, Mr. Larry," answered M.


"I also apologize to you for misunderstanding. Jimmi told me everything. Forgive him, yes." Mrs. Larry picks up M and Amy a piece of beef that has been cooked with black pepper.


"It's okay. We understand you're worried" Amy smiled slightly as she looked at the red guava juice on the side of the plate.


"O, yes ... When did your father come home? There's something we want to talk to him about." Mr. Larry looked at M and Amy in turn.


"Later this year, I said no later than the last week of December. Is that right, brother?"


M just a small nod. What they wanted to talk to their father. But he did not dare to ask Jimmi's parents directly.


Dinner continued with some small talk about the two families. I have a few questions about M.

Amy walked hurriedly to the room. His eyes are heavy. But M immediately pulled his sister's hand.


"Wait a minute, Amy ...."


"What's up, brother? I've been so sleepy."


"You're not suspicious of Jimmi's parents?"


"Suspected what? They're good, really. His brother also."


"What do they want to talk to dad about?"


"I don't know, I'm going to sleep. Hoaaamp ...."


"Ah .. You are this. Yes, already ... sleep. Tomorrow it's your turn to prepare a meal."


Amy nodded and closed the door to her room. After a while, he was already in dreamland.


Seriate...
