Look at me, Mela!

Chapter 17: Mother's possessiveness

Mother's eyes were aghast, she looked at her son in surprise but she behaved accordingly and did not want to make Darsen hurt.

Mother's difficult-to-guess gaze confused Darsen, he looked at mother's eyeballs closely.

"Mom, I don't care if I like Mela? We are not blood and legal to marry?' ask Darsen.

"Mela knew this?"

Darsen shook his head, mother patted his son's shoulder. "Rest! You're sick so you talk about slacking off. I'll bring you some porridge and some warm tea."

Darsen stared at his mother's departure in confusion, then he looked at Velino who was also looking at him in wonder. The 5-year-old boy did not understand anything and only smiled when the father was caught liking his own sister.

"Velino don't tell Aunt Mela, will you?"

"Why?"

"Later Aunt Mela was angry with Papa."

Velino nodded. Darsen then told Velino to go to sleep, while he had to take a bath to make it fresher.

In Mela's room

Mom took off Mela's clothes and put them in the sack. One by one he went through and looked for clothes that should have gone into the sack. He was inexhaustible to Darsen who suddenly admitted to liking Mela who had been his adopted sister for 10 years.

After finishing, the mother put the sack on Mela's bed and then went out to the family room. He doesn't think about Darsen. He was an adult should be able to think logically whether loving his own sister was worth it?

Otherside.

Mela is cleaning the staff room. Working at an agency made him have to meet with artists at all times. Some want to say hello and some are greeted even turn their faces away. The identity of Mela is very secretive and only Pras knows.

By the way with Pras, the widower man was busy taking care of a lot of things and the latest was Laura's case. Darsen left it entirely to Pras, although sometimes somplak but Pras is very reliable. That is why Darsen trusted Pras so much.

When the business was done, Pras saw Mela was making drinks for the staff, he then approached her.

"Mel, what are you doing?" ask Pras.

"Eh ... Mr. Pras, I'm making coffee. Brother wants?"

"May as well, while we chat for a while."

Mela nodded, she made coffee for Pras as well after which they chatted on an empty bench. Mela sat next to Pras. He looked exhausted after work from the morning.

Pras sipped coffee made by Mela then looked at the cute face of Mela who was very valued by Darsen.

"Mel, what do you think the boss is?" ask Pras.

"My brother? Hem ... he's fierce, hehe .. don't tell brother, yes!" answer Mela.

Pras laughed, Mela said that Darsen was fierce and cold. No one dared to argue with him except his own parents.

"Other than that?"

Mela raised her eyebrows. He is suspicious of Pras if this must have something to do with Darsen.

"Surely Kak Pras reported to Kak Darsen," said Mela.

"No, just say it!"

"Ehm ... Brother Darsen was behind his cold demeanor he was very kind. He still thinks about the feelings of others. That's what I caught after being her foster sister for 10 years" Mela explained with a smile of her own.

Pras increasingly put his hearing firmly and should not be one sentence left behind.

"You like it?" ask Pras.

Mela frowned, she looked at Pras in confusion.

"I mean, do you like Brother Darsen?" ask Pras again.

Mela nodded. "Of course, he's my brother and I've always liked him. It's the first time I've had a sister."

Too bad, Boss. Mela thinks you're just a sister. Batin Pras's.

Pras stood up, he rubbed Mela's head. He then said goodbye to return to work.

Mela looked at the back of Pras, a man who had been in her family since entering High School.

Pras is handsome and having a sweet smile makes Mela admire him.

"Kak Pras, wait!" said Mela.

Pras stopped and turned his body.

"Excite, Brother!" said Mela.

Pras scrunched his forehead and smiled again making Mela more like it.

Anyway before I get married to Brother Leon I have to tell Kak Prasatya if I like it so that I am not burdened with this pent-up feeling.

"Hisjeek ... Aisshhh ... very hot this tea," said Darsen melted tea made by his mother. "My tongue is burning" continued Darsen.

Darsen wiped his mouth which felt very bland because of the pain. He watches the clock at 5 and Mela comes home soon.

I need to get Mela's attention. I have to get as sick as possible so Mela can take care of me.

Mela entered the house of course in welcome Pak Adi who always awaits his return. Mr. Adi does not know if Mela became a janitor, if you know it will definitely scold Darsen who gave Mela a job.

Mela said goodbye to the room, in the room there was already the mother who sat on the bed. Mela kissed her mother's hand and sat down beside her. Mela's eyes stared at a sack whose contents were very familiar.

"Mother, in the sack is my shirt?" ask Mela.

"True, I'll throw it away. From now on you should not wear clothes that are too minimal and sexy and should not even wear shorts even at home. Just chill! I'll buy you new clothes" Mom said.

Mela is confused. She stood up and held onto Mela's shoulders. "You're an adult. Dress in front of your father and brother!" keep Mother.

Mother smiled, she came out of Mela's room with a sack containing her clothes. Why are you acting so strange? Ah ... Never mind, Mela does not want to take a headache and immediately take a bath using warm water.

While taking a shower her phone rang which turned out to be from her online friend.

Uh... is it not blocked anymore? Inner Mela.

Sena

Mela

Just got home from work. Km?

Sena

I was sick but no one took care of me.

Mela

Sena

Mela

Haha ...

Sena

Why laugh?

Mela

No, brother is too old.

Sena

Wicked!

Mela

Kidding brother. I-i'm sorry! Hehe

Sena

It hurts so bad old dikatai

Mela

I'm sorry, Brother.

Don't be angry dong!

Sena did not reply making Mela feel bad. Mela will apologise right after the shower later. He now immediately finished his bath and rushed down to the living room.

There was a father, mother, brother and son. Seeing Mela wearing sleeveless clothes, the mother immediately took off the jacket she was wearing and she put it on Mela's body.

"Mom told you that from now on, take care of your appearance from your father and brother" whispered Mother.

"But why, Mom?"

"You ask why? You're all grown up. Who as conceived alone can do forbidden things especially if not as conceived?" answer mother.

You see the wife whispers with her beloved daughter directly approached them and embrace Mela but immediately released by Mother.

"From now on you must keep your distance from Mela. Especially you, Darsen," I said to Darsen's surprise.
