JUST HUG ME FOR A SECOND

I'M NOT A THIEF

That night Evan came home as usual, he passed behind and the door was opened by Minah. Outside his father, mother and brothers were enjoying their dinner, while Evan only ate in the kitchen with Minah's 7-year-old son. Not a strange and painful thing anymore for Evan to be treated so. The pain in the stranger had already died in his heart, he already did not care about any more of it.

"Last noon Adi's grandmother made a chicken kalio gulai," said Minah while serving it at their simple dining table in the kitchen. But even so, Evan still enjoys this simple dinner, which is inversely proportional to his luxurious family dinner outside with an expensive restaurant menu and a large dining room. It seems that they are celebrating something and Evan is not part of the event.

Adi's grandmother was indeed a descendant of the field, so she was good at cooking pasture cuisine. Evan often brought Grandma Adi's cooking. Minah deliberately did that for Evan, no more because of her affection for Evan who she had cared for since childhood.

"At noon this afternoon added 3 times," said Adi proudly to Evan with a funny expression, Minah who was also there laughing to hear it with Evan.

"Want a big pot!" exclaims Evan while holding the stomach of Adi. "kalo so that the ration Adi already abis, this is the ration of Evan mas again!" evan's tease on that sweet little black puffer. Because Adi likes to play bicycles with his friends, it makes his skin become burnt by sun every day.

In contrast to Evan who is pure white, it makes Adi feel jealous of Evan, especially Evan often tease him by comparing the skin of both of them. Adi's regret at his god was a separate entertainment for Evan when in his house that has been like hell for him all this time.

Amidst the excitement of their dinner interspersed with laughter Evan and Adi, Rima suddenly came. He came to pick up the steak that was being heated in the microwave.

"Minah, where's the steak?" asked Rima in a cold tone. Minah immediately took the steak in the microwave that had been turned off and handed it to her. He left without greeting Evan at all.

"Mbak Syahila has just been able to work in SOEs, he said," explained Minah without being asked to Evan. Evan just smiled wryly to hear it, then again enjoyed his dinner with Adi.

Evan was usually treated so, even he was never offered a meal together, and sleep was still in the back room, too, his school pocket money he finds himself and occasionally Tama shares his allowance with Evan if he gets the project. His parents rarely gave him money. Only if it is remembered by Tama or the new Shahila his father will give it, it was mediocre. Evan did not understand why he was still called a bitch in this family, even though he did not demand much anything, given him to accept, otherwise he did not comment.

After eating, he went to his room to rest. She immediately settles down in a small, stuffy 2X3-meter room that becomes her resting place. He sat on the bed without the bed. Evan's room is small, but Evan always tidied it up, so it looks clean and not messy even though the contents are full of Evan's belongings. Especially books, because Evan really likes to read. This time Evan also took the time to read a book in between his breaks.

(Evan Simple Room)

Suddenly Tama came. And standing in front of Evan's room door, he knocked on Evan's room door as a sign of his arrival. Evan immediately turned to the source of the voice and closed his reading book.

"Again what?" tanya Tama from the front door of her room that happened to be open.

"Nothing else, ma'am. Just relax again," Evan replied as he placed his reading book beside him.

"Eh, come with Tama, yuk! We're shopping for a moment," he asked.

"Well! Another big project, here!" guess Evan sumringah. Tama just smiled meaningfully.

Evan got up from his seat and put his book back on a simple bookshelf beside his bed. He soon reaches out to his jacket and follows Tama on his way to his car. They immediately walked down the streets of the capital that was quite crowded and crowded at night. Night lights decorate

the streets, there were many young men who were enjoying their night by gathering in the city park as far as their journey.

Not long Evan and Tama arrived at one of the Mall is quite large in the city, because indeed their destination is not far from their residence.

They immediately headed for one of the outline stores that specialized in selling branded goods. At first, Evan was hesitant to enter. She was afraid that if Tama bought her an expensive item, she was afraid that her mother would get angry later.

"Select clothes that are suitable for college. Suggestions mas anyway aja shirt later can make your clothes college. Ok?" said Tama casually while giving her thumbs up. Evan was silent with a face that looked doubtful, while Tama had sat on one of the chairs in the store while playing her mobile phone.

Evan looked at Tama once more, until one of the shopkeepers came up to Evan and questioned him. Evan seemed to start waking up from his daydream. It seemed like she could not resist, her brother would definitely not want to if she refused. Finally Evan decided to choose the goods with the cheapest price only.

The waiter helped Evan in choosing the clothes he would buy by continuing to pay attention to Evan closely, he was quite fascinated by Evan's handsome face. Evan's calm care can always captivate anyone who sees him, what else if you already know him people will know how mature and wise he is. The face of the blaster was no less charming. With a high posture, white and nose pointed typical of westerners there. Much different when compared Tama very oriental. Because of that many think Evan is not Tama's sister.

After finishing choosing his clothes, Evanpun immediately approached Tama.

"Udah, mas Tama," said Evan while showing the clothes he chose. 1 shirt and 1 pair of jeans.

"Cock just that? Mas Tama said make college clothes. That's enough mana. Choose 6 more shirts, keep 3 more pants, 2 shoes, and you also need a jacket to buy all. Cepetan, mumpung mas again hold the money. So you can shop as much as tonight," said Tama while smiling and patting slowly Evan's arm, he returned to his cellphone after that.

Evan thought, he felt it was too much, later his mother would think no-no more about him.

"Mas Tama! Don't be too much, mami will be angry. I'll take 2 more clothes, yeah!" evan said worriedly and started to feel bad.

Evan just kept quiet, he looked still hesitating before returning to choose his shopping clothes.

Tama is indeed a good brother for Evan, although he does not defend Evan directly if Evan is angry with his mother or father but he always helps strengthen Evan. Maybe he felt bad for his parents. But his conscience as an older brother remains called upon to protect Evan if Evan has any difficulties.

After being satisfied to choose finally Evan met Tama again.

"Udah!" said Evan this time with a pile of clothes of his choice in his bag of groceries that have not been paid.Tama also turned towards Evan, and immediately rose up while paying for their groceries.

Finished shopping for them to eat together, he ordered a lot of food for Evan. He knew Evan was never allowed to eat good food at home. So this way he satisfies Evan. Evan did not dare to be too greedy, he always ate enough food, he did not seem to want to take too much advantage of Tama. There was shame and shame in his heart.

"Udah mas Tama's. I was full, I ate too." Said Evan who only chose drinks and snacks.

When they're done they go home. As usual Evan will walk by the side around the house when he comes home. In the kitchen, she saw her mother in the kitchen. He looked astonished by Evan's large groceries, he stared suspiciously. His eyes followed Evan into the room.

Evan felt bad, he felt like a thief. He looked at the clothes his brother had bought. He didn't want that if he had to be suspected. Finally, when he arrived at the room clothes he just put it in the corner of his room.

Not long after her mother came. He opened the door violently. And BRAK sounds the door on his slam.

"Where are you, HUH?!" rima asked with a suspicious look in front of the room door. Evan was quite shocked by Rima's sudden arrival.

"From shopping the same mas Tama," said Evan honestly.

"Don't lie. I'm not home right now! Where did you get the money to buy this much expensive stuff? You're a steal!?" point Rima without hesitation. "New dad lost 10 million today. And you suddenly brought a lot of gini stuff!" Rima continued to intimidate Evan suspiciously. Evan was silent, he was confused as to why he was suspected. Even though he went to the main house only rarely, because it was not allowed. And why Tama's not home. They came home together. Maybe he left again after dropping her off.

Uhh... Where his mother looks start looking because of again. He wouldn't have an alibi if Tama didn't exist. Obviously his mother would not accept any reason from him, unless Tama herself delivered it.

"Really, ma! Tama who bought it. We just got home" replied Evan trying to explain although he was sure it would not be in his mother's room.

"Tama is not home," he said sharply and with a look of eyes that looked unfriendly "Myself, you're the one who stole papa's money?!" the accusations again non-stop. Evan fell silent and closed his eyes for a moment. He doesn't know what to say now. "See this, also a new laptop, right! Where do you have the money to buy a laptop?!" rima said it started to rise. Her mother was really looking for her fault.

"That's my prize for the Olympics, Mi," Evan said honestly and in a slightly weakened tone, because he knew for sure his mother would not believe his words.

"Too many things are coincidences. Buy clothes from Tama, laptop from school. You have dared to steal and have dared to lie too! If the child is not really his behavior is not real. You better say you stole papa's money, right?!" By calling him a bad boy, it deeply hurt Evan's heart. He hasn't done anything this long. He always obeyed and obeyed.

"I'm not angry!" evan sternly with a look of disbelief. He's always getting caught in the corner like this. "This is really the Tama mas that bought earlier, and all these things I got from my hard work. Not a mistress," he said once again.

Not long Vishnu his father came.

"What is this?!" ask her new father.

"Look! You just lost money and he just bought a bunch of stuff, Pah. Don't you feel suspicious?" his mother's disdain for his father. Vishnu unpacked Evan's groceries. And sure enough, it's all branded goods that are not cheap. There's no way Evan could afford it.

"Where did you get all this?" ask her father who is following her interrogating her.

"The clothes from the Tama mas, the laptop from the school," Evan explained again. Her father opened Evan's grocery bag that filled her all expensive clothes. And his father also opened his laptop bag which is still new because it is rarely used. He intentionally kept it for her to go to college later.

his father stared at Evan sharply, it was difficult for his father to believe Evan's words, which was where his father had just lost money. It made her father suspect her even more.

And...

PLAQUE...

A loud slap landed on his face, Evan speechless did not dare look at his father and mother.

That was the beginning of his father's madness.

His father continued to beat him up asking for his confession, but there was nothing he could do if they did not believe him. He could only stay in his father's hands. He was kicked, whipped with a belt of iron and slapped many times mercilessly and without being able to protect himself. Minah could only shut up while crying in the corner to see Evan at his father's beat. Evan who was in pain could only curl up to hold back his father's every kick and punch. He tried to protect himself by enduring the punches and lashes using his palm, without daring to stop him. His mother was satisfied to see it all. The child who had made her hurt by her husband blindly.

SERIATE...
