Chapter 66 Love Triangle



" Said the flu, is it even here?" Say someone with a snide.


I turned towards the source of the voice and was surprised by what I saw.


" Brother Zean." I said half screaming.


" Why is it so surprising?" Ask Brother Zean then pull up a chair and sit next to me.


" It's still the flu?" Imbuh brother Zean.


" It's been snuffling." I replied with a low head, I dare not look at Brother Zean it feels like I was caught cheating on you with Brother Ega.


" Aren't you going to the hospital?" Ask Brother Zean while looking at Brother Ega


" No, I'm on vacation today." Reply to Brother Ega and return Zean's gaze.


They stared at each other for a long time and made it awkward to be among them.


" Sister Zean wants to eat?" I tried to melt the atmosphere, it felt like I was in a stuffy room when I saw them meet each other.


" I've eaten."


" Can I pinch Indhi for a second, brother?" Pinta brother Zean.


" Of course." Replied Brother Ega briefly but his eyes were still fixed on Brother Zean.


" I'm sorry, then." Then Zean stood up.


" Indhi stay a while, brother?"


" Hm."


" Sister don't go anywhere." My orders to Brother Ega and I went after Brother Zean who had gone away.


***


" Sister."


" Sister."


" Brother Zean." My voice began to rise because Brother Zean did not stop.


" Sister." The fourth call and he didn't stop at all.


" Sheel." I screamed because I was upset.


Hearing his name called Brother Zean stop and turn around, he walked up to me with a hard-to-understand look, his hands were ruffled around his waist and there was no smile on his face.


" Who are you calling?"


" I'm sorry, my sister didn't want to stop. Where are we going, brother?"


" You don't seem happy to see me here?"


" What do you mean, brother. I'm just asking where we're going, pity sister Ega if she waits long."


" You don't have the flu, do you?" Ask Zean doubtfully.


" Don't you believe me?"


" Yes and I don't like lying." Zean's voice began to rise.


" Who lied to you, brother?"


" You?"


" me? When did I lie?"


" Heh, where have you been all day?"


" I....."


" I what? You were out all day, weren't you, brother Ega?"


" How does my sister know?"


" How do I know it doesn't matter. I've been worrying about you all day and you've been playing in amusement parks. Then you still ask when are you lying?"


" Where did you know I went to the amusement park?"


" It doesn't matter where I know." Answer Zean nervously.


" Where do you know I went to the amusement park?" I repeated my question.


" You following me?"


" Answer!" I screamed to attract the attention of those around us.


" Don't tell me...." I hung up my sentence, then reached into my cell phone in my pants pocket. I looked at Brother Zean not believing what I found on my phone.


" When did you put a tracking app on my phone?" I asked disappointedly.


" From the beginning we were dating."


" Maha." I laughed cynically.


" You're scary brother." I still can't believe what Zean did.


" I did it for your own good." Kill brother Zean.


" My goodness?"


" I'm just worried you'll disappear like that, I thought if I put a tracker on your phone I'd find you easier."


" I'm disappointed in you, brother."


" I'm more disappointed with you. You said it hurt and it turns out you went with another man." Zean's voice is back up.


" Another man you say, he's my brother." My voice is no less loud.


" What do you mean, brother?"


" Don't pretend to be Prilatia's stupid, you know what I mean."


" You're talking, brother, I'd better go now."


I turned around and intended to leave but Brother Zean held me back with his words.


" I know everything Pril, I was there that night. Your birthday night."


I paused my steps to leave, my legs trembled and my heart seemed to stop beating. I felt like my chest was squeezed, tight, I could barely breathe anymore. The tears that had been blocked in my eyes were now flowing with a rush.


I breathed in slowly and gathered some strength to wipe away my tears. I turned around to approach Brother Zean and looked at his face.


" What do you know, brother?" I asked with a trembling voice.


" He is not your brother."


" How far did you hear it?"


" I heard everything after Sister Ega came in."


" And you didn't tell me?"


" I want to know how far you think I am, I thought you would tell me, but I was wrong."


" It's not that I don't want to tell my sister, it's just that this is my family's problem, I don't want anyone else to know and interfere in my family's problems. Sis Ega is very important to me brother, I don't want to make him sad if I know I'm telling someone about who he is."


" Other people. So all this time I was just someone else to you."


" That's not what I mean, brother."


" I understand now. I won't win from your brother."


" Did you love her too?" Ask Brother Zean with a pushy look.


" Of course I love him, he's my brother."


" Even though he doesn't look at you as a sister?"


" What does he really want to talk about?"


" Sister Ega loves you right?"


" Where do you know, I didn't even tell anyone." I began to panic and was unconscious of my words.


" It's true?"


" Sister." Weak talk.


" From the beginning I expected her, Ega's big look at you, her treatment of you, everything she did was not just because she was your sister, but because she loved you."


" Enough Zean." Snapped Brother Ega who suddenly appeared behind me.


" Why sister, you're afraid Indhi will hate you after she finds out that she loves him?" Asked Brother Zean whose face now began to turn red because he was holding back emotions.


" I said enough." Snapping sister Ega who began to get carried away by emotions.


" What kind of man are you, hiding your feelings behind the name of a brother."


" Enough Zean." Brother Ega pulled Zean's collar violently.


" Why don't you reveal it now, let me witness the love between you."


Brukkk, brother Ega hit Zean's face until the corner of his lips bled.


" Enough." I shouted as Brother Ega raised his fist again.


" That's enough, please stop!"


" This time I'm really disappointed in you two."


" You're all grown-ups, is this how you solve a problem? What you're doing is only gonna make matters more complicated."


" Sister Zean, why is it that you are so sure that sister Ega loves me not as a sister?"


" Do you remember that pair of bracelets and your birthday gift necklace?" Ask Mr. Zean.


" Hm."


" We had a fight when we were going to buy it, Brother Zean said if the necklace was for his girlfriend so I relented and removed the necklace."


" Is that right, brother?" I asked Brother Ega half in doubt


I have to solve everything today, all the misunderstandings of Zean and the truth about Ega's true feelings.


" Is what Zean said true, brother?" I asked back because sister Ega was just speechless.


" I'm sorry."


" Since when?"My body is back shaking.


" I don't know, neither did my sister realize it. Everything just flows. But you're gonna end it Ndi, this crazy feeling you're gonna end soon."


" I'll trust Brother Ega, I'm sure big brother can handle it. Maybe what you feel is not love, maybe you just misinterpret your feelings"


" Now for the two of you, please give me some time alone. When we meet later I hope everything is back to how it was. I'm sorry."


I stepped out leaving the two of them still standing staring at my departure. My steps feel heavy. This morning I thought what Ega said was just a joke, but in the end what I was afraid of happened, which I did not expect to come and come to me. The fact that sister Ega loves me is much more painful than the fact that Zean's sister tracked me down.


Anyone who hears this story will laugh, the little girl who is stepping on her teenage years is trapped between two grown men who love each other.


Then what should I do in the future. I don't know, let me follow God's scenario.


SERIATE....
