Loving Brother Connect

37

Fero was astonished to see Hansen coming to his house with a big bag.

"Lo kayak abis expelled, Bro!" fero's response looked at Hansen whose face was bent.

"Gue is not expelled. I'm leaving home, I'm hitching a ride here, a few days."

Fero was certainly surprised to hear Hansen's statement. How could the young man leave the house.

"There problem? If you get out of that house, you can't meet your beloved adek, dong! Not nyesel?" ledek Fero's.

Hansen just grunted softly at the utterance of his best friend. Fero was right, this decision will affect his meeting with Vanya who usually can see from a very close distance because they live in the same house.

Seeing Hansen's disheveled face, Fero finally invited the friend to enter the house immediately and would question Hansen again in his room later.

"Lo can stay here first, until Lo feels calm. But, you tell me the problem where let me know why you should run away like this," said Fero sage.

Hansen did not answer. He took a long breath that was occasionally exhaled violently. The anger is still left, also a sense of disappointment because of all the reality that exists. He didn't know where to blow everything where clearly his heart was hurting right now.

"Mrs ..."

"Why Vanya?" ask Fero.

"Vanya mutusin me."

"Huh?" Fero looked at Hansen in disbelief. How could Vanya break their relationship? It looks like the two human children are fine even looking sticky like stamps. "Seriously lo?" respond later.

Hansen nodded his head. "Because of me, Vanya had to break up our relationship. I want to trust him again, but he won't see me. He locked himself in the room and it hurt me, Fer!" his brother's with Fero.

Fero really didn't expect this. Moreover, Hansen is not usually so open about relationship problems. Just this time Fero saw Hansen was desperate. But Fero understood, however his best friend had loved Vanya for a long time.

"Have you tried to explain to your nyokap?"

"Udah. I've obviously repeatedly I can't let go of Vanya that way. But I still don't want to understand."

Hansen told Fero everything. Including the mother's fear of papa's anger if you know the relationship Hansen built with Vanya.

"You're not entirely wrong, Bro!"

"Gue tau."

"He wants to protect you from the anger of his papa Vanya. He also wants to defend his home. It's impossible right, you know you fight with her new husband because of the relationship lo and Vanya? He must have been hard-pressed to choose between lo and Vanya's papa!"

"Gue understand, I know Mama's relationship with Papa Chandra is no longer limited to dating like me and Vanya. But, I really can't break up from Vanya. I still want to fight. I haven't even shown my seriousness with Vanya. If you know, I'll face it."

Fero patted Hansen on the shoulder, trying to channel his spirit to the friend. "That's the problem, Nyokap Lo don't want to until bokap you know!" sergeant.

Hansen could only be silent. He could say nothing more and wanted to dissolve in his own thinking. He wants to find a way out of a relationship that feels deadlocked but really wants him to live.

"After this, what's your plan?" asked Fero after a long period of silence between them.

"Gue wants to find a job. Be independent."

Fero was flabbergasted by the speech of his best friend. "What do you want to do, lo? We haven't even graduated from school!" his protest.

"What's important is that I can be independent. Until one day I can take Vanya out of that house to be mine."

"It's crazy, you!" Fero was also dizzy thinking about Hansen's goal beyond reason. Until Hansen wants to fight for Vanya. "It's nothing, you don't take it personally. We're too young, Bro! There are still many other girls out there who-" Fero did not continue his sentence because Hansen's sharp gaze seemed able to stop him.

"Sorry, I mean, you can still change your mind, Hans. We are still unstable and maybe you can forget Vanya by courting other girls. You don't have to torture yourself like this."

"What do you mean you self-torture? I don't feel self-tortured if I'm just working and independent!"

Fero tried to open Hansen's mind, although he was not sure Hansen could be shaken because he was very clear Hansen's attitude was always adamant with the target he wanted to achieve.

"Nothing is difficult if I want to make an effort. I just need to be persistent and not give up. I'm sure I can."

"Certainly, where do you want to start? I'm sorry, I'm not ngeremehin lo, even I'm not sure you have the ability and skills in a field of work."

Hansen thinned his lips, the field of work he chose was unthinkable for Fero. But he will start that way to raise money and start his own business with the capital he seeks for his own efforts.

...****...

Vanya churns his food with no taste. Dinner this time was quiet without Hansen. The girl's eyes looked empty. He seemed to be not okay and it was clearly realized by Zia.

Zia didn't want to ask why Vanya behaved so dispassionately. Obviously, he knows the reason. But not with Chandra, he catches that his daughter is having thoughts that interfere with the girl's cheerfulness.

"Cock the food just stirring, Van?"

Vanya did not answer, he dissolved in his daydream of being with Hansen.

"Van's? You sick?"

Vanya flinched and found the look in Chandra's eyes that were fixed directly on her.

"No, no, Pa."

"Why not eat it?" ask Chandra for attention.

"Again less taste, Pa."

"Let's eat a lot. Papa see you're not excited about it."

Vanya tries to follow the wishes of the papa by bribing rice from his spoon even though he is not tasteful.

"Tomorrow school, right? Why hasn't Hansen come home yet?" ask Chandra to Zia. It's not usually the kids haven't come home to the point of missing dinner like this. Normally, Hansen would be at home at this hour, if he wanted to go out again and not have dinner with them, but Hansen would have been home since late afternoon, but when Chandra came home earlier, he said, he didn't see Hansen's motor in the garage.

"Nh ..." Zia was confused as to what to answer. She had already thought about what reason she would give her Husband, but when Chandra asked suddenly she forgot what to answer.

"Hansen didn't tell you, what's the activity?" Chandra's face turned worried.

"So he said he wanted to play futsal," Zia replied reasoned.

"Certainly? Why haven't you come home until now?"

"Maybe he's staying at his house, Mas."

Chandra frowning. But a moment later he seemed to understand. "Other times, if Hansen wants to stay and not go home, he can send a message to papa yes," he said.

"Well, I'll tell Hansen, Mom."

Zia was relieved to give her husband an excuse, but she knew this relief would not last long. If tomorrow Hansen doesn't return home, then he has to prepare another excuse. Ah, Zia was dizzy thinking about this, not to mention she was also worried about Hansen's departure.

Zia could only hope that Hansen's anger was only temporary, she prayed in her heart that her son would return home tomorrow.

Vanya who was still moody, increasingly bent his face to hear his parents discuss about Hansen. Suddenly he missed that figure. He stared at the dining chair Hansen used to sit in, suddenly he was about to cry again.

"Ma, pa. Vanya went into the room first huh."

Without waiting for the answer of the two people, Vanya passed to the top floor, she even left the many remaining food dishes on her plate.
