Lara My love

Chapter 38 Be my lover

I lay on the grass, my eyes closed for driving the rain into my eyes, I prayed in my heart at least let me see it one last time.

" It's so romantic for us, to sleep in the air."

I opened my eyes and turned towards the source of the sound. I saw Brother Zean was already next to me, our heads aligned with the opposing positions of the bodies. I blinked my eyes several times, ascertaining whether the one beside me was real or just my delusion.

" S." Ze."

" Yes."

" It's really you."

" Hm."

" When are you here?"

" From before you scream."

I was reflexively throwing my face away, avoiding the triumphant gaze of Brother Zean, it felt like I wanted to disappear right now, what a shame.

" Aren't you cold?" Ask Brother Zean who is now in the position of his head above my head.

I looked up at my head and looked at him sharply. His blue eyes returned my gaze and made me misbehave. I immediately got up and sat down before Brother Zean noticed my nervousness.

Brother Zean changed his position and sat down next to me. The rain began to subside, but the sky was still shrouded in black clouds.

" When did you leave?"I asked in the end.

" Fast."

" When do you come back here?"

" I'll stay there, probably won't come back here unless there's something that makes me want to go home."

" Hmmm. Why give me a lavender plant, I don't know how to care for it."

" Don't I write down how to take care of her."

" I don't have time, brother, I'm busy preparing for exams."

" Yes, let it go. Let it wither and die." Brother Zean seemed to imply something.

" Can I hold you?"

My eyes widened to hear Zean's request, but Brother Zean looked at me with sadness.

" Consider a farewell from a friend." Brother Zean's voice sounded sad.

I sighed and spread out my hands, Brother Zean looked at me as if he could not believe what I was doing, but a second later he pulled my body and again I fell into his arms.

" Thank you for being in my life and sorry for hurting you, take care of yourself. I love you, my sunflower." Whisper brother Zean.

Brother Zean rubbed my back several times and then moved to stroke my hair and ended with a peck at the top of my head, after which Brother Zean took off his embrace and stood up to leave me.

I'm still sitting there, my chest tight, my tongue cuddled, I can't say goodbye to him.

Am I sure I'll just let go. Then what was the reason I wandered around like a madman to look for his whereabouts. Whether I'll be okay after his departure, I really don't understand my own feelings. I just don't want to be left behind.

I stood looking at Zean's back that was starting to move away from my reach, my eyes pensively watching his steps away from me.

I tried to brave myself, throwing away all the fear I had in mind, half running I down the slippery hill from the rain. Brother Zean stopped, twisted his body and saw me running down the hill.

My distance was getting closer to Zean's, I was so excited that suddenly my legs slipped, my body was swinging due to loss of balance and my bruuukk hit Zean's leg. Brother Zean hugged my waist tightly, making sure I didn't fall. Because of the slippery road Zean also lost his balance and we fell in a state of hugging each other. Luckily we were almost at the foot of the hill so we didn't have any serious injuries.

"Are you okay?"

" Something hurts, isn't there a wound?"

" No, I'm fine."

" Thank God, anyways you want to run from above, danger know not, you are careless." Brother Zean scolded me, just like Ega's sister when she was scolding me.

I just smiled at Zean's babble. Seeing my smile Brother Zean breathed out violently, his hands ruffled around his waist and looked like he was holding back in anger.

" Sister angry?"

" You realize you're not the one, what you're doing just now is Pril's danger, if you're doing anything."

" I'm sorry." I looked down and regretted what I did.

" Sister."

" What?" Reply Brother Zean half-stomping.

" Can you stay here." I asked a little doubt.

Brother Zean just shook his head.

" So my brother will leave me."

" That's not what you want."

I fell silent, regretting all the words I had said to Brother Zean back then. Either got the courage from where suddenly my hand grabbed Zean's neck, pulling him closer to me.

" I like you very much. Can you stay and be my lover?" I whispered in Zean's ear.

I let go of Zean's neck, looking down embarrassed at what I just said. How dare I ask her to date, shouldn't she be the one who said that to me.

A few minutes passed by and I didn't hear a response from Zean. Finally I decided to retreat, keep my distance from Brother Zean and then set foot to leave him.

" Will you be my lover Prilatia." Shouted Zean from a distance.

I stopped my steps, a happy smile expanding on my face. I was still in my position to turn my back on Brother Zean, then I raised my right hand and held my thumb up my sign that I approved his invitation.

There was the sound of laughter from the distance Zean then he ran up to me, I turned around and Hap Brother Zean caught my body, took me into his arms, happily I also returned the embrace of Brother Zean.

Long hugging each other, Zean's leg finally let go of his embrace, his hands cupped both of my cheeks and a cup of a kiss landed on my lips. I restrained Brother Zean as he began to bring his lips closer to mine.

" Can you wait until I'm ready?"

I refused a lip kiss from Brother Zean. Not because I don't like it but I want to have a healthy relationship with Brother Zean, let alone remember my age of 15, so I really have to take care of myself.

" Of course."

Brother Zean smiled widely, it was rare to see Brother Zean smiling so widely. Brother Zean clasped my hand, leading me through the weeds before we reached the settlement.

" Sister, can we stop by the clothes shop first."

" absolutely. Look, I'm not comfortable with my clothes either." Replied Brother Zean while revealing his dirty clothes from falling with me earlier.

We walked hand in hand, reluctant to let go of Brother Zean's hand. Today with my courage I can finally hold Zean's hand. In the middle of the expanse of thatch and under the rain's stub I finally found my first lover.

Zean, Arzean Wijaya from here our relationship began, with the naivety of a teenage girl, I hope this relationship will be eternal.

Seriate...
