Chapter 99 America

1.5 Years later..

Time has passed, in one and a half years only twice Zean took the time to come home and see me. Unlike the beginning of his return, the next two Zean brothers return we spend more time together just at home alone. There was no quarrel or debate when we were together, the distance that separated us became a valuable lesson for us to appreciate the time when we were together.

The National Examination is over, I am preparing to enter the Faculty of Medicine, this time not because of coercion from my mother, but because of my absolute desire.

Nothing special for a year and a half, I spend more time studying, sometimes I still go out with my two best friends Arum and Dita. They are also preparing themselves to enter college, Arum chose the Faculty of Law he wants to become a lawyer and follow in the footsteps of his parents. As for Dita, she chose to be a nurse.

" How did it go, accepted?" Brother Zean asked, we are making a vidio call and I am waiting for the announcement of the new student reception.

"Not yet to come out of the results." I bit my fingertips so nervously. "I'll check again brother." I'm nervous.

" My brother..."

" How, accepted?" Said Zean excitedly.

I looked down weakly..

" It's okay, you can try it again next year." Brother Zean said softly, looking at my expression he guessed I did not pass the selection to enter the Faculty of Medicine.

" I'm accepted." I screamed excitedly, I stood up and danced, from the laptop screen I could see the relief on Zean's face.

I ran out of the room and shouted to my mother who was in the kitchen with bi Sumi. "Mom, mother, Indhi accepted ma'am."Excited from the end of the stairs.

Hearing my screams mom came up to me immediately, mom's face looked so happy. " You're accepted?" Reset mom.

I nodded in excitement, then mom hugged me and kissed me on the cheek repeatedly. "You're great, I'm proud of you, call your sister soon, we'll visit her." Mom said and surprised me.

"Visiting Brother Ega." My deuteronomy is full of emphasis.

" Hem, your mother and sister have promised to take you on vacation there if you are accepted to the Faculty of Medicine" explained the mother.

I closed my mouth in disbelief that I would follow Brother Ega out of the country, we have not met for a long time, I am very excited, I can not wait to see him.

I went back to the room, I forgot to turn off the vidio call with Brother Zean and when I came back, Brother Zean did not close the call.

" Goodbye, I'm proud of you."

I smiled so much I showed my teeth. "Thank you brother."

"I'm sorry I couldn't go home and celebrate your graduation, I was so busy preparing my Thesis." Sad talk.

" I understand brother, after all, big brother is coming home soon."

" Hmm, maybe 5 or 6 more months."Zean is excited again.

"Sister."

" Yes."

" What are Maryland and California far away?"

" It takes about 5 hours to get on a plane, why?"

I shook my head, I did not tell Brother Zean about the mother's plan that would invite me to visit Brother Ega.

***

week later..

"I miss my sister very much."

" Sister too."

Brother Ega took off my embrace and changed to hug the mother who had been next to me.

"How are you doing, son?"

" Good mom, how are you?"

Mom takes off brother Ega's embrace. " As you can see, I'm fine."

Sister Ega looked back at me, she stroked my head gently. "Since when have you been this high." Said Brother Ega with a smile on his face. "Congratulations on your graduation yes, big brother is so proud of you." Imbuh brother Ega.

"Two years isn't a short time sis, I grew up and tall when sis left."

" Remain brother, this is thanks to prayers and the support of mother and sister."

Brother Ega put our suitcases in a taxi, we immediately died the airport and headed to the apartment owned by sister Ega.

Ega opened the door of his apartment. "Let's go in the mom." Mom and I went into the apartment, I was amazed to see the apartment of Mr. Ega so neat, he was still my old brother, I muttered in my heart.

" Rest, you must be tired." Brother Ega took me and mom to his room, there is only one room in this apartment.

" The mattress isn't spacious, but it's fit for both of you."

Sister Ega left me and mother in her room, I immediately jumped on the bed to rest and so did mother.

***

The next day, Ega was still unable to accompany me for a walk, because I was tired of taking the initiative to ask permission from my mother to see Brother Zean for a while.

At first I was worried about letting me go on my own, but eventually my mother allowed me to leave.

" Just one day, tomorrow it's back here."

***

After 5 hours of landing at Los Angeles International Airport, I took a taxi to Zean's home in Santa Monica, a half-hour taxi driver stopped his car in front of a large two-story house.

I got out of the taxi and entered the yard of the house that was not fenced. In front of the house I again matched the address. It is true, I said.

I knocked on the door a few times but no one opened it. I'm trying to get around, who knows brother Zean is around his house.

I went to the side of the house, a lot of flowers embedded there, maybe these flowers that mamy often talked to me about. I continued my steps, I smiled as I saw Brother Zean in his backyard, just as he did not hear my knock, he was busy with his laptop in front of him. I walked slowly so that the sound of my footsteps would not be heard by Brother Zean, I can't wait to surprise him, he must be very happy to see me here now

I stopped my steps as I saw the figure I knew coming toward Brother Zean, I struggled to swallow my saliva as I watched the woman hug Brother Zean from behind, my chest felt so tight as the woman several times peeked at Zean's cheek and there was no rejection from Zean's sister.

With a bit of courage I walked over to Zean's sister and the woman, they were still not aware of my arrival, I bit my lower lip, hesitating a little to continue my steps at the sight of their closeness, it feels like I want to get out of this place soon, but I also want to hear Zean's explanation of all this.

" Is this the thesis you're referring to?" I said with a trembling voice.

Brother Zean turned towards the source of the voice, he was so surprised when he saw me there, he took off the hand of the woman who was coiled around his neck and ran towards me.

" I can explain." His speech stammered.

SERIATE.....
