Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 40: The Word

For a few seconds I was silent while observing the figure. It seems he was trying to escape my vision.

"Boss, sorry I'm late. The order is tomorrow in between," he said.

I'm watching carefully.

And that voice is Vincent's voice! What business is he with Bram? And Bram's ordering what? Maybe gold jewelry? Because I think Vincent is running his Papa's gold jewelry business. Or is there some other effort?

"OKAY. Tomorrow someone will take you to your place, my man," Bram replied with a nod.

"I go home first Boss," Vincent said briefly.

"good. Careful,"

Vincent turned around and came out. There's not much they're talking about. I saw Bram watching my gelagat. I pretended to eat chicken.

"Zanu, what's wrong? Looks like you noticed the person just talking to me. Do you know him?" ask Bram.

The natureak! How'this? I explained where to start, right? Or should I be honest?

"Hmmm.. That's exactly what I wanted to tell you, brother. But now there is an explanation," I replied confusedly.

"You just explain, I'll listen" Bram said.

"She was my ex-boyfriend when I was in first grade High School. We broke up after a month of being together because I didn't want to date. When he finished school yesterday, he came again with the same feelings. I can't make a decision to refuse or accept, because we don't know who our soul mate is going forward" I replied.

"Now you have nothing to do with her anymore, right? Is it because of her, you're not willing to accept me yet?" ask Bram.

"No. Because I haven't thought of going out until now. I'm afraid I don't concentrate on college and I'm afraid of losing. Plus afraid of being played with," I replied nelangsa.

My position is now comfortable near Bram.

Am I talking like this, Bram will stay away from me? Just like my brother used to be.

"I understand. So my current position is the same as Vincent's? There are no decisions and just stick to fate. Isn't she?"

"Vincent's been betrothed to Kak's parents, so it's just that Vincent and I can't have a relationship anymore,"

I dare not look at Bram. I can only be quiet. Because I'm confused how to. But Bram definitely needs certainty from my answer.

"Zanu, if you don't want to date, that's okay. I like your thinking that way. For sure, you don't belong to anyone right now. Are you comfortable with me?" ask Bram again.

I nodded and bowed shy plus scared. I'm resigned to Bram's decision. He'll stay away from me or go through this without being tied down.

"Zanu, look at me" said Bram.

I slowly looked at Bram. I looked at it carefully. My heart can't lie that I've known that love from Bram. I can't hope to go too far with the feeling itself.

"Zanu, I'll take care of you and stay. Our closeness can be said to have been like a courtship person. I also don't want to, the closer we get, things can go out of bounds. So it would be nice not to meet often. If you need anything, I'm ready to help" replied Bram.

"Yes, sister" I replied briefly.

I accepted Bram's decision that way because there was no other choice.

"Yes already. Now we're ready to go home. Your mother will wait a long time. I have to take responsibility. Are you done eating?" ask Bram.

I'm nodding. I saw Bram change a little after I talked about soul mate and destiny.

But maybe this is Bram's way to be able to take a little distance so that our relationship is not too far to live. Might as well.

Bram and I got out of the car. On the way home, Bram was silent. He seems disappointed with my words.

Maybe he's disappointed why I don't want to date?

My God, I don't want to lose Bram. I don't want the atmosphere to change as it is now. I miss the brilliant Bram.

The car finally arrived at my house. Bram and I went down straight to the terrace. After knocking on the door, it wasn't how long Mama was out.

"Aunty Night," said Bram.

"Night too. Thank you for bringing Zanu in time yes..," said Mama with a smile.

"Sama-sama Aunt. I'd like to go home, Auntie,"

"Not come in yet?" ask Mama to offer.

"No aunt, I'll play here sometime" replied Bram.

"alright. Aunty into first yes, maybe there's something to say to Zanu before going home,"

Bram nodded and Mama went straight inside. Bram and I sat down on the porch for a while. I saw Bram looking up at the sky for a moment. Incidentally in the dark sky, there were many stars scattered.

Actually, tonight was beautiful, but because Bram's attitude changed a little, the atmosphere also changed.

"Zanu, you actually have no desire to be with me?" bram asked to look at me seriously.

I was shocked by Bram's words! I didn't think that such a question came out. I have to be honest with my feelings all this time, I don't want to be silent anymore. I want Bram to know how I feel.

"Sister, I actually like Brother. As long as we get closer, I feel comfort. I want it to feel like I'm always with Brother, joking and telling stories. It's just that when I'm young, I can't decide to be serious just yet. I want to go to college and get to work. If you want, we're like this, live it. I wish you were my soul mate" I replied at length.

"Alright, I understand what you mean. From now on, you are my girlfriend. And rest assured I will always take care of you and this relationship to the best of my ability. In the future I can calmly run all the activities and I will wait for the right time to be able to have you later" replied Bram.

Ow hell! It sounds like Bram Lebay's words to me, but maybe that's Bram's affirmation to be serious with me. I was happy to hear what Bram said just now.

"Well, I'll go home first. I have a job I want to finish tonight. Tomorrow I'll tell you again, how do you know we can meet, okay darling," said Bram as he rolled his eyes.

"Well, start teasing me again. Udah ah, go home there," I replied as I pushed Bram.

"It's not tempting, but you're funny. That's why I liked it when I saw you for the first time. You're a crab confused thinking about photos, very innocent, ha.ha.ha...," Bram laughed sumringah.

Huh uh?! I just found out, it turns out that when I signed up for UMPTN, Bram had been watching me from afar.

"So, borrowing a pen at that time was just an excuse?" manya curious.

"Yeah...., I don't have a pen? I'm the chairman of BEM, the pen has to be standby for college business. If I like it, I immediately gas, without a stale base or backward. Luckily you want to be mine now" Bram replied with a smile.

"So the story goes, Brother fell in love with me?" ask again.

"You are naive.. It was in love with his name. Falling in love at first sight. Until I have to find out where you are,"

Whoa! When I walked off campus, in a demo, he suddenly found me and stopped.

Though the walk at that time a lot and all the colors of the uniform are the same. At least he told the bodyguard to look for which one I was. There's just Bram.

"I went home first. Thank you for tonight Zanu" said Bram.

"Yes, be careful. Thank you for buying it," I replied.

Bram nodded and headed to his car. Suddenly Bram turned his back on me. Bram stroked my head gently. I instantly melt.

"Zanu, see u," said Bram.

I just nodded and saw Bram start getting into his car. Bram is gone. Then I went inside the house and locked the door.

Good night sunday Bram.
