I Choose You!
#99 Sheets of Memories and Unfinished Sheets
“Uncle want coffee?”
“Hmm,” papa is still busy with Daffa.
That mark was enough for Fares to stand up leaving his laptop. Go to the coffee corner, process whatever is necessary.
“Rasyi debate also same Fares?” papa's small, soft voice could be caught in my ear.
“Hmm? How do you think?”
“Just be quiet from earlier.”
We really don't talk. It was also because I was still upset by the way Fares thought about Aaron.
Fares and I... A fight? Tu, why give birth?! Our relationship just got better?! Why awkward again?!
It's unacceptable!
I stood up from the family couch. He ran to the back of Fares and grabbed his clothes.
“Ey!” brother Fares was surprised.
“Jelek! Brother Fares is ugly!” I screamed and shook her body, “Apologies now!!”
“Awas! Later, spill!”
“Apologies!!”
It's unacceptable! Don't make things worse, dong!
“Inta map!!” Daffa, even followed by grabbing Fares' feet.
Until he says sorry, I won't stop being angry!!
“Iya! Brother apologize!”
I stopped immediately. Shut up, look at each other.
Already been?
Continues to?
I should what?
“Pfft⏤!”
Papa, my ears hear it!!
The sound of the door distracts us. Is....
“Eh, there's still Rasyi,” my favorite aunt is finally home! “You want to stay here?”
“Tanteeee!!” Daffa shouted excitedly towards Sari.
Sari carried her directly after putting her bouquet of flowers and belongings on the dining table. Hendra seemed to follow with various grocery bags.
“Luckily we buy a lot of food,” Sari smiled towards her husband.
“Udah home?” Ira appearing. He must have just returned from his bath, “Happy, kak~?”
“Shut!” Hendra looked angry.
Papa suddenly stood up, “I have something taken care of at home.”
Well... Then I'm coming home? It's a pity that it's still seven nights and the night is still long. Do you have an appointment or something? Famous doctors are complicated.
“You'll be home later? Let brother deliver home,” Fares pat my head.
Glad I heard it, “Iya, want!”
“Do not night-night,” papa take a step away after saying goodbye.
It would be nice if he relaxed a little.... Or is he just avoiding the crowd? Never mind.
Fares voiced, “Where, bu?”
“This, definitely you guys. Hendra is impossible to make a date,” Sari's words like piercing right in Hendra's heart.
I laughed, “This time is different. Uncle Hendra himself asked to be helped~”
“Rasyiqa...!” why is Hendra angry?
“Totally?” tuh right, Sari can be moved too, “Can also turn out,” Sari laughs sweetly.
Of course makes Hendra flickering even though it is not clearly visible.
Yak! Enough of the fun!
“Rasyi want to see kadonya dong. Rasyi has not seen~” I approached Sari.
Ira has prepared a sweet gift in the name of Hendra. Too bad the gift was wrapped neatly when Ira gave it to Hendra. But the photo album made me curious.
“Bby. Here,” Sari took Daffa and I to sit in the living room with her.
I looked at Sari who opened the first page. Looks sweet with wedding photos.
“Wah, really beautiful aunt~” I said very honestly. It's fair Hendra was immediately sensitive if Sari had his ex's contact.
“Thanks~”
Sari opens the next page. This really is a picture story that leads to recall the journey of love of these two people. Even the Fares pregnancy.
Oh? “That's Brother Fares⏤”
Why is the album closed?
“Tante Ira, hasn't Fares told you not to use that photo?!” Fares, he had already closed the album book and snatched it from Sari's hands.
Is his face ashamed of something? Don't tell me Sister Fares doesn't like the baby picture? Yeah, how else. Only with diapers only.. funny~.
“Why brother? Photos funny sister loh~” I smile want to laugh.
“Whispering!”
Sari who couldn't help but laugh made the mood of humor break. But alas, Fares has to give up because I want to see the continuation of the album.
Hm? “This who?” I pointed to a picture of little brother Fares with a man older than him.
Seems like I've seen.
“That's Rasyi's sister,” Sari still accompany me looking around photos.
My sister? Oho! brother Riza huh? An older brother born from the same womb. He died at the age of four.
It turned out that Brother Fares was quite close to Riza's sister. The photo shows it.
“If this newborn Rasyi~” Sari smiles again.
Me? How did I get into Sari and Hendra's anniversary album? Riza's picture doesn't matter because there's Fares there. But look at this! Even many pages contain me, me and only me!
I feel like a child of this family.
“This is my favorite photo~” Ira who saw from behind pointed at one photo.
The photo I remember very much. It was my first birthday. With korean theme.
This picture Ira took when I was just hugging Fares. And as he crouched down in front of me, I watched Fares' hat, as he looked at the camera Ira had captured.
Oh. Shouldn't I remember that?
“When?” amazing acting, make an impression on us~
“Four first year Rasyi,” Sari stroked my cheek gently. He laughed, “Rasyi is still just learning the way. But if you see Fares, really like to run while shouting, brother Fayes~”
Of course it's just part of the acting, the food of my little day. Pretending role innocent and cute.
But seeing Sari's reaction, he seemed to consider it everything.
“Let's eat, your son already looks hungry,” Hendra's voice is still casually sitting on the other side of the sofa.
Sari looked at me, “Iya?” he looked at me closer.
No really. I'm not that hungry.
But a mother, of course, noticed me further. We decided to have dinner together with the food that Sari and Hendra brought home.
Well, another normal night with this family.
...)( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )(...
Finally got home. Tired feel. Last night I just stayed up because of PR, and now I'm only home at eleven. Of course I'm sleepy.
“Kakak directly home huh?” brother Fares is still in his vehicle receiving the helmet I took off.
Yeah, by the time Fares gets to his house, it's probably midnight.
“Go!!”
Hm? That's papa's voice. Who does he scream at nights like this?
“That's uncle, right?” Fares panicked and parked his vehicle. It walks past the fence of the house, “Uncle?!”
Heh?! Why is there Aaron here?!
I ran straight to Fares and grabbed his shirt.
Aware the man will be my presence, “Rasyi, I'm here⏤”
“Go! Get out now!!” papa pushed Aaron's shoulder.
Aaron looked angry, but, somehow he held him back even harder. He focused on me, “Rasyi, let me talk. Just a little.”
I hid myself behind Fares, “Come home. It's midnight.”
“Rasyi, just a minute⏤”
“Harun!” papa, I didn't expect him to be so rude to hold Aaron's shirt, “Time's up! Get lost now!!”
“Uncle, please calm down first,” Fares approached them and restrained the two.
“Then it is, take him!” papa angrily pushes Aaron to Fares.
I chose to go near Papa. This man greeted me with his open arms, hugging me directly as I reached in front of him.
“Lease!” Aaron did not receive support from Fares.
“Quiet first,” Fares hold Aaron, “Uncle, please, give Aaron another chance.”
Papa's voice is very cold to hear, “Fares, you must be sleepy because it's too late.”
“I said it consciously.”
“Then go rest and don't come back here.”
She's she? Want to keep me away from Fares too?
“Do not, pa!” I hit this little papa.
“I stay with them as long as they talk. One time if it is not smooth, I immediately bring Rasyi home. Keep going... I promise to stay away from Rasyi.”
Eh?! “Sister Fares!”
“Kakak please. Just once, huh?” Fares looked at me pleading.
I don't like this. But that doesn't mean, if I refuse, it's all done. Maybe he was more disturbing. And papa will get angry.
Papa looked at. That means I can make my own decisions.
“One time,” I hope my decision is not wrong.
