Lara My love

Chapter 43 What the truth is

After eating me and sister Zean sat in the living room while watching television. I yawned a few times, probably because of the effects of eating too much earlier I'm sleepy now.

My phone shook, I grabbed it from the table. Call from sister Ega, I let the call end, several times brother Ega back call me not nor lift.

" Why not lift, sister Ega must be worried?"Ask Zean after he finds out who called me.

" Let's go, I still want to be here."

" with me?" Ask Mr. Zean.

" Hmmm, you mind?"

" Of course not, but I'm sure that's not why." Guess brother Zean.

" What is the reason?"I asked back.

" You just want to run away from Ega, right, you're actually angry, aren't you Ega's sister?"

" Sweety..."

Brother Zean hung up his sentence, he changed his sitting position and faced towards me.

" Look at me." Brother Zean touched my face and put a little pressure on me to look at him.

" The problem must be faced, not even in living a rich run gini. Better now you go home, keep talking well with sister Ega, I'm sure Ega very sorry not to be able to come to your graduation, let alone you are the best graduate, I'm sure, I'm sure Sister Ega must be very guilty."

Deg, again brother Zean understands my feelings, his words always make me feel better. True said Brother Zean, sister Ega must have his own reason for eating he could not come.

" What about my mother?"I wonder what opinion Zean would give me about mom.

" Aunty tika also must have other reasons ."

" Aunty, how do you know my mother's name?"

" I forgot to tell you." He answered while scratching his non-itchy head.

" Tell me what?" I'm getting curious.

" You remember the beginning of our courtship I was planning to build a new restaurant?"

I'm nodding.

" The architect is Aunt Tika, your mother?"

" Where did you know she was my mother?"

" When we were meeting at my restaurant, there was a group of Junior High School children who ate also in my restaurant, then he told me that he also had a beautiful princess who was the same age as them."

" then?"I'm getting curious.

" He showed me a picture of his son and it was you, I was surprised at that time, why the world was so narrow, I met my future mother-in-law faster than my mind."

" Sister didn't say anything weird, did he?" I was afraid that Brother Zean would tell me about our relationship with ibi.

" I said I know you and we're dating."

" What, seriously?" I'm panicking.

" Of course I lied, hahaha."

Upset at being toyed with by Brother Zean I finally pulled out the women's general weapon, a death pinch on Zean's waist.

Brother Zean complained, because I was not satisfied I tickled Zean's waist. Brother Zean kegelian, he lay his body on the sofa so that it makes me more easily to tickle him. Several times he apologized but I ignored him, I still continued my mischievous actions. Suddenly Brother Zean blocked both my hands, I lost my balance and almost fell, Brother Zean intended to help me but we fell down along with my position under Brother Zean. One of Zean's big hands restrains his body from overrunning me and the other hand is under my head.

I looked at Brother Zean, our eyes met each other, Brother Zean seemed to have trouble swallowing his saliva, his breathing sounded heavy and his face reddened. I turned my face away as I felt that something was pressing down on my thigh. Even though I was 15 but I wasn't that stupid, of course I knew what Zean was feeling.

Realizing that Zean immediately stood up and left me still lying on the floor, I woke up and saw Brother Zean drinking ice water in front of his refrigerator.

I walked into the kitchen feeling thirsty too but Brother Zean forbade me instead.

" Stop." Shouted brother Zean.

" But I'm thirsty brother?"

" Take this!" Brother Zean took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator and threw it at me.

I caught the water bottle and took it back to the couch. A few minutes passed and Zean was still in the kitchen. Tired of me looking around, I smiled at the childhood photo of Brother Zean, funny, he was already handsome from childhood apparently.

" Am I not handsome?"

" I'm sorry about that, I didn't mean to be rude to you."

" It's okay, it's a sign of normal Zean." I tried to break the awkwardness between us.

" You mean before you thought I was abnormal?"Brother Zean started teasing me again.

" Come on, let's get me home now!." I'm trying to shift our conversation.

I grabbed my bag and walked out, Brother Zean tailed behind me and kept demanding my answer.

" Answer first, did you really think I wasn't normal?"

" I'm not normal anymore, you forget I ever forced you to kiss me that time."

I stopped hearing Zean's words, Brother Zean hit me from behind because I didn't realize I had stopped.

" So you know, he's a thief."

" you mean?"

" Sister stole my first kiss."

" Really, firs kiss, are you serious?"

" Hmm,,"

" My happy. All right to make amends I'll give you a gift. Taraa."

Brother Zean took out a large parcel. Out of curiosity I opened it and I was surprised to see the contents of the parcel.

" The brother painted it?" I asked after seeing Zean's painting.

Brother Zean nodded.

" When did you make it?"

I'm still fascinated by your Zean paintings. Painting of a woman sitting alone, her head turned to look at the sun that was sinking between the weeds and sunflowers. Wait, why am I such a stranger to the painting. I looked at Brother Zean and he nodded.

" It's you. I made it after you left my house that time." replied Brother Zean.

I put the painting down and hugged Brother Zean.

" Thank you, I like it".

" Congratulations to your graduation, I'm so proud." Brother Zean stroked my hair again, now stroking my hair is like the custom of Brother Zean.

Brother Zean finally drove me home, today my sorrow paid off with the happiness that Brother Zean gave me.

I kissed Zean's cheek before I got out of his car. Today I don't know why it feels like I want to stay with Brother Zean. I even allowed Brother Zean to take me to the front of the house.

I went inside the house and went to my room, when I was about to change clothes I found Brother Zean's cell phone in my pocket. I borrowed Zean's phone to call Ega because my phone battery ran out and I forgot to return it.

I went out to the balcony of my room, waiting for Brother Zean to come again to pick up his cell phone.

Not that Zean's car, I saw him parked in front of Dion's house.

I ran down the stairs and out to Dion's house.

I went inside because the fence wasn't closed. I saw the door of the house slightly open, I paused my intention to enter upon hearing the debate between Brother Zean and Brother Dion.

" Have you told him?" Ask Brother Dion.

" There's no need to interfere in our affairs Yon, I'll tell him later, so you won't have to bother to tell him like you did back at school." Zean's voice sounded annoyed.

" I care about Indhi, I don't want her to get hurt!" Hearing my name called me getting closer to the door.

" I won't hurt him Yon I promise."

" How can I trust you after what you did to my husband. She is pregnant and you left her. Don't start anything new if your past still hasn't left you Zean."

" I've never left him, he's the one who just left me, you don't have the right to judge me because you don't know what the truth is."

" What is the truth, brother?" I asked after I couldn't bear to hear what they were talking about.

They were both surprised to see me coming, Brother Zean looked at me resignedly while I was still waiting for an answer from Brother Zean.

SERIATE....
