He Is Not My Brother's

He Is Not My Brother's
First Dinners



In the narrow room was seen Amy with another sweet girl facing the mirror. Amy seemed to have no confidence observing the shadows that formed in the mirror.



"You're so pretty, Amy. I'm sure Jimmi will really like you" the girl said with a gentle smile to the mirror.


"What's? That's not going to happen, Brother Wen."


"I'm serious, you know. You're really pretty and feminine." Weni stroked Amy's hair.


"What yes? I think this is weird. This outfit ... ribet. It feels weird." Amy touched the strands of ruffle that adorned her clothes.


Weni laughed, "That's because you're not used to it. Good thing I got makeup kit in my bag, so I can help you dance, hehe."


Amy looked back at herself in the mirror. His everyday face was just a moisturizer that had now been sprinkled with powder and there was a thin touch of redness on his cheeks. In addition, Weni also put on eyeliner and a little smoky eyeshadow on Amy's eyelids. Amy's eyebrows also looked neat. Her lips have been polished with nude lipstick. Weni said, natural lip color will give a natural impression. Amy's lips are naturally red.


"Amy, your prince has come!" M shouted after seeing Jimmi's motorbike parked in the yard.


"He's not my prince!" Amy yelled back.


"Wow, she's a real hottie, Amy!" M shouted back as Jimmi got off his bike and started to step towards the door.


"Hi, M!" hail Jimmi as soon as the door opens.


"You're cool, uh .. handsome tonight, Jimm." They both held their right fists.


Jimmi smiled and grabbed his nape. "I feel so good, M."


"So where are you going to take my beautiful sister, huh?"


"Mmm .. to a place. Small restaurant on the edge of town."


"Okey .. don't go home more than nine o'clock." M smile. Jimmi knew that his best friend was teasing him.


"Come on, M." Jimmi sulking.


"Haha .... I believe in you, Jimm. You want me to call the princess?"


"No. Let me pick him up." Jimmi laughs. He walked towards Amy's open room.


"Oh .. hi, Wen! You're here?" Jimmi stopped his steps at the door.


"Yeah ... helps Amy to be .. mmh, more beautiful" Weni said, winking one eye. "Alright .. I think I should talk to M now." Weni removed her hand from Amy's shoulder then left the room.


Amy looked at herself once more before turning to face Jimmi, who was now leaning on her back at the door with both hands folded over her chest.


Jimmi laughed as he looked at Amy in the black dress and now her facial lines look more real. Jimmi was fascinated. He laughed at the thought of Amy's ordinary and innocent face now becoming graceful and impressed like a grown-up girl. Although laughing but his eyes are not separated from Amy's face.


Amy herself was upset that Jimmi was laughing at her, as she had imagined. But somehow his lips reluctantly pursed looking at the laughing man. Not usually Jimmi's clothes are as neat as this. That navy strip shirt looks cool in his eyes. The watch and the pants too. That laugh also somehow looks cool on that cool face as well. Amy clenched her hands and put away all her thoughts. He thinks everything he thinks is illogical.


"So seriously we're gonna go on this bike?" ask Amy when Jimmi has started his Rossi motorcycle.


"Come ... Would you like to walk?"


"Ee-e .. but my clothes are like this. You see?"


Jimmi watched Amy from top to bottom. Well-favoured.


"You can sit sideways, right?"


This time Amy's mouth completely pursed when she finally sat sideways behind Jimmi.

"Come on!" Jimmi pulls Amy's arm which just silently looks at the rhetoric in front of him.


Amy just according to Jimmi's pull. They enter a small restaurant but are laden with that romantic feel. Amy gulps spit saw some pairs—it looks like—lover who was having dinner under the candlelight. Some seemed to smile and joke happily with their partners. Perfect place for candle light dinner but not with the guy next to him. He should be with someone special, someone who has taken his heart, not with someone who beat him in KM bets. It's insane!


Amy tried to bury her disappointment deeply. At least there was no one he knew. His heart was a little calm. But only for a moment. As she sat down after Jimmi pulled a chair for her and let her sit, Amy's eyes saw a person she knew with a girl she knew.


It was Fohn, Jimmi's older brother who was sitting in the corner of the room with a sexy girl in a pastel dress. They look very familiar. Amy thinks Jimmi knows where they are?


"Buy ... Am, what do you want to order?" jimmi's voice made Amy a little surprised.


"Mmm .. just like you," Amy replied.


"Well .. two servings of pasta and two servings of red guava juice."


"Eh?" Amy glanced at Jimmi at once hearing the drinks ordered by the guy who now looks cool.


"That's your favorite, right?"


Amy just nodded and smiled a little. He looked back at Fohn. I wish Jimmi's brother hadn't seen his whereabouts. He doesn't want to look silly with his style tonight.


"You see Fohn continue. Why?"


"Huh? You saw your brother too, huh?" Amy is astonished to learn Jimmi also saw Fohn.


"Yes, from the first one here."


Jimmi looked closely at his brother or perhaps the girl he was with. Amy thinks Jimmi saw the girl Fohn was with.


"Mmm .. That's Jane, right?" ask Amy a little carefully.


"Yes" Jimmi replied briefly. His sight immediately threw him in the other direction.


"Eh .. You and her, that ... isn't Jane .. your boyfriend?"


"Since when? She was Fohn's girlfriend."


"Eh?"


"You think I'm the same Jane? No. .. She's my sister-in-law's candidate, I'm not interested in her anyway."


There was a breeze blowing in Amy's heart. I don't know where it came from. Suddenly his brain ordered the nerves on his lips to smile. Even though he tried to refuse the order but the smile was hard to stop. Instead of smiling, he puffed both of his cheeks. Looking at Amy's bloated cheeks, Jimmi just chuckled. The laughter made the wind in Amy's heart grow louder.


"About M where, huh?" ask Jimmi on the sidelines of his paste.


"Weni said she was going to the park. Turns out she's nice, not like the other M girls."


"Your sister's dating style hasn't changed."


"meaning?"


"From the beginning of the week's night always in the park."


"Not really. I used to lend him my bike, but it's rarely used to piggyback on girls, except you."


Amy just nodded small. He was sipping his drink.


"Create ...." Amy bit her lower lip, unsure of what she was going to ask. "This place .. is too-formal-romantic, you know?"


"Times?"


"Yeah .. This is too mature. People come here just to propose to their partners, or celebrate birthdays. That sort of thing," Amy said while looking around. The happy couples who were there looked grown up. Amy really feels like a snot kid.


"So, do you want me to apply?"


It was almost the paste Amy swallowed out of her nose. The girl coughed then hurriedly grabbed the mineral water beside her plate.


"Grand ...."


"Yes." Yeah."


"I want to say something" Jimmi looked at Amy straight. That guy doesn't even care if the one you talked to just choked.


Amy tried not to look back at Jimmi. It was a bit uncomfortable too that he was stared at like that. There's something weird on Jimmi's face. Even his style of speech is different.


"Mmm ... What's the talk?" suddenly Amy's heart beats faster as Jimmi grabs her fingers. "Don't tell me if you're gonna propose to me. Wipe you with juice."


Jimmi smiled at Amy's slightly agitated tone of voice. But he liked such a thing from the girl in front of him. "You're beautiful" Jimmi said at last after he was satisfied with a smile.


"Te .. thank you," Amy felt hot all over her skin surface. He doesn't know what else to say. Amy wants to be angry but Jimmi's smile holds her back. However, Amy realized that Jimmi might be seducing and teasing her. But inevitably, there is such a sense of praise.


"Amy .. We've known each other since childhood."


"Yes." Yeah." Amy tried to pull her hand from Jimmi's grasp but the guy grabbed her tighter. Damnit damnit!


"Ah ... how should I say it, huh?" Jimmi pushed his face forward. "I've liked you since I was a kid. I thought I liked you as my sister ...."


Amy bit her lip. It felt like he had to prepare because something was about to kick his stomach hard. He hopes what Jimmi will say next in the form of jokes that can make him angry. Because with anger, Amy can get out of this strange situation.


"But I think I was wrong. I fell in love with you."


Amy felt the kick. He bit his lips harder. Hoping that her pain could drive away something that was now entering her heart.


Nah! He's just teasing you, he's not serious. He's player!


"You're kidding me, right?" finally Amy can say it even though she was painstakingly accompanied by an awkward smile.


"I've never been this serious."


Yeah, Amy knows that. He could see it from Jimmi's eyes. There are no lies there. But Amy tried to raise the various speculations that were on her mind. He refuses to believe in the honesty of Jimmi's eyes. Jimmi often pranks and teases her. After all, he must have said the same thing to dozens of girls before, so naturally he could be as convincing as that.


"Ehm .. don't be there, let's go down!"


A voice broke the silence between Jimmi and Amy's heart. Fohn was on the dance floor with Jane.


Jimmi stood up and extended his hand to Amy. Amy shook her head slowly.


"Come on! Just for a second," Jimmi asked.


Amy welcomes the warm hand but when she is among several couples who are dancing, including Fohn and Jane, she berates herself who has welcomed Jimmi's hand. He never danced. Besides, did he say anything to Jimmi?


"I've never danced" Amy whispered to Jimmi.


"It's easy." Jimmi wrapped Amy's hands around her nape and then wrapped her hands around Amy's waist. They began to move slowly left and right in the middle of a romantic song.


Amy raised her face. Jimmi was smiling sweetly. Like a smile of victory when the tall guy managed to prank on him.


"I haven't confirmed your statement yet, yes" Amy said.


Jimmi held back his laughter, "I don't need your approval to love you, do I? You're not gonna turn me down anyway, are you?"


"You think I like you?"


Jimmi pulls Amy's body, "Yes."


"Gede flavor!"


"I'll force you if you don't."


"Try it if you can!"


Jimmi smiles and pulls Amy's body. Amy tries to fight Jimmi's pull but the high heels he wears make his balance chaotic. Amy falls into Jimmi's body.


"Gumcha!" Jimmi hugged Amy's body.


Amy tried to let go of that hug. After being able to stand up again, Amy stuck her tongue out at Jimmi then returned to her seat to finish off the rest of Jimmi's juice.


"Hey, that's my drink! You're so greedy, yeah!" Jimmi snatches the glass from Amy's hand.


"I want to go home!"


"Wait a minute, it's only nine."


"Why again? I want to go home" Amy said. He could not stand the long stay close to his brother's sidekick. She was embarrassed, angry, and a little happy. Amy was afraid she couldn't control herself.


Jimmi scratched his head, making his hair a little messy. "Alright .. if that's what the princess wants."


They finally stood up. Jimmi pulls Amy towards Fohn and Jane. Although ogah-ogahan, but after being close to Fohn, Amy tried to be sweet.


"Sister, we go home first" Jimmi told Fohn.


"A fast. You guys don't wanna dance anymore?"


"No. Umm. .., Amy's a little unwell."


"alright. Take good care of your boyfriend." Fohn smiled at Amy.


Amy tried to return the smile even though she did not accept what Fohn said just now. He stepped away from the place immediately. He hoped that all the events just now were just silly dreams. Dreams that are not real. And he can be free from the sense that is now flooding his heart space. So anxious to forget all this, Amy almost fell asleep on Jimmi's shoulders and no matter what speed of motor Jimmi ran.
