LOVED MY BROTHER (TIRI)

Chapter 38's

Tonight was a happy night because Haris' father came home. We chatted in the family room.

It's been over a month now that Haris' father has a job out of town. He opened a new branch of his garment factory in Samarinda city.

A rare moment that should not be wasted.

"Dad, take me with you tomorrow?" My spoiled vibe.

"Other times if you're on vacation. The four of us will go together." Answer Haris' father who makes me excited.

"Dad, I went to Dave's dorm. He's sitting there." Said Mother who suddenly mentioned the name of the person who made my heart dag dig dug not careless.

"That's good, Dave's graduating soon. After this he'll go to Europe." Said Haris' father.

"Lily, what about your school?" Ask Haris' father.

"My school is very good. My mother is incredibly strict about taking care of me. There is no gap for me to play around with time." I replied that made Mom's lips smile knot.

"Good donk. All the affairs of the children indeed I leave to your mother. He's an expert at it." Said Haris' father.

"Dad was very good at praising." Answer Mom shyly.

I don't know what feeling I'm feeling now.

On the other hand a deep love for Brother Dave, and on the other hand do not want to make this rare moment end.

"Lily, are you daydreaming?" Ask Haris' father.

"Wh, not yeah. I'm just gonna take a quick look at the end Mom and I have a place to moan and take shelter." My speech.

Haris' father hugged us both.

"Just calm. As long as there is a father, there is nothing that can make you afraid n sad. I'll always take care of you three." Said Haris' father.

I am deeply moved by what my stepfather said.

It was as if the figure of the deceased Father was inside her.

Responsible and loyal to the family.

"Udah. no need to mehek. Another week dad's on leave, we're on vacation. Dave's at the door." Said Haris' father.

She understood my feelings and my mother being happy because of her presence in our lives.

The tears of happiness we shed in his arms are proof that so amazing is Haris' father's role.

Not just as a father or husband, but as a friend.

Haris' father is the best.

"Lily, you're going to school tomorrow, right? you sleep first." Haris' father then let go of his embrace.

"Well, good night, Mom and Dad." My speech.

I moved from my seat to the upper room.

Mom and Dad still live in the living room.

They were talking about something important.

"Well, our son. They're..." Say Mother.

"What's wrong with them?" Answer Haris's father.

"They love each other." Say Mother.

"really?" Ask Dad.

The mother, who was afraid that her husband was angry, immediately switched the conversation.

"Dad, how's it working? launch it?" Answer mama ngeles.

"Jawab first, don't nag like a kid." Said Haris' father with a flat face.

Mom was suddenly nervous. She was worried that her husband would do something more cruel than she did.

"Let it go, it is not time to think of a soul mate for our children. Please focus on their education." Answer Haris's father.

My mother breathed, she was relieved.

It turned out that Haris' father's response was not as dramatic as he thought.

"We'll just rest. I'm going to work again tomorrow." Saying My Father.

My mother nodded then they got out of their seats and stepped into the room to rest.

* * *

"If Dave and I love each other, what would Dad say?" Mumbles.

Distraught and worried.

This long night I must pass with eyes that do not recognize drowsiness.

When Haris' father hugged us earlier, there was a deep sense of fear.

Will Haris's father's affection and concern for me change if I know that Dave and I love each other?

Haishh...

He was happy when like this still love I have for Brother Dave became an obstacle.

Show me the best path.

The path that got me and Dave to justice.

Toying with destiny is painful.

After I feel calm, finally these eyes want to be invited to compromise.

The prayer before bed led me to a beautiful dream.

Morning time..

I left school an hour earlier than usual because I got a job as a class hygiene ambassador.

Together with Nita and Wulan, we work together to make a clean class.

There will be a cleanest class race this month.

The gift is good for eating class friends.

"Daddy with you?" Haris' father said when he finished breakfast.

"OKAY. Let's go." Answer excited.

"Mother's not coming? Said Haris' father who saw Mom washing the dishes.

"No, Mom's still leaving. You guys go first." Say Mother.

Dad and I say goodbye to Mom.

Then we set foot out of the house.

We got into the car that was ready to drive me to school.

* * *

In the car...

"Tumben you're leaving so early?" Ask Haris' father.

"There's a clean moon race Well, I'm an ambassador for class hygiene. I had to split the task up to my friends in class. There's a gift too Well, good for a meal." My answer.

"Oh so the story. Um, I wanted to ask you something." Said Haris' father.

Looks like Haris' father will ask for things I don't want to talk about.

"You love Dave?" Ask Haris' father.

Don't we?

It just happened.

I took a deep breath and then I exhaled slowly.

I looked for the right reason and was not impressed to bother so that Haris' father did not ask further.

"Well, he's my brother. We must love and love each other." I'm relieved.

"Just the love of a brother and sister?" Ask Haris' father back.

Now Haris' dad keeps me from picking.

Haris' father also made me feel wrong.

"If that were true, would you be angry?" My toot.

"School first. School is more important than anything else." Answer Haris's father.

There was a disappointment emanating from the look on his face.

Getting complicated?

The thing I was afraid of was now real.

Haris' father has started to suspect me.

Now I surrender to the fate of what I will live later.

* * *

A few minutes later...

Her father's car stopped in front of my school.

I said goodbye and kissed Haris' father's hand.

There's a sense of awkwardness there.

Then I got out of the car.

I waved my hand at Haris' father.

But he didn't bully her.

The longer the car that Haris' father drove away and the farther away.

"Lord, allow me to keep this feeling. Servants cannot afford to be separated for too long from those they love. Brother Dave, do you also feel what I feel?" I murmured in my heart.
