Marry my Raise Brother

Chapter 39

 “Enjoy your breakfast, Leen.” 

Erka returns to the car after communicating with Cindy. There was no trace of debate, the man looked ordinary as if there was no big deal. Positioning yourself behind the wheel, the hand was tightly gripped by the steering wheel. 

After a long time apart, the awkwardness was created by itself. Familiarity brother sister was now not restless. A wonderful childhood is just a sweet memory and will never happen again. Erka's marriage made the distance even further. Sitting together in the car, both tongues were muddled. 

Not much chatter, Erka chose to focus on the steering wheel and Ayleen was busy with his phone. Jemari rubbed the screen, the sweet girl decided to surf in cyberspace to get through awkwardness.

“What time is it?” Erka suddenly asked.

Ayleen looked next to. He saw the eldest son of Hutomo Putra who is now a father. The handsome man did not smile, still busy with the highway.

“Jam one, Kak.”

“I'll pick you up, Leen.”

“Hah!” An unexpected surprise, Ayleen gasped and glanced at his older brother. The man was still cold, but his words seemed sweet. It was as if there was a tacit attention in it.

“I have a meeting after this. But, I'll pick you up when I get home.”  Erka.

“If Brother Erka has any business, I can go home alone. Can take a taxi.”

“No, I can pick you up after lunch.”

“But, if Brother Erka is busy, I can go home by myself.”

“Wait for me, Leen.” Erka. His tone seemed to not accept rejection. 

The vehicle is on the streets of Bandung. It did not take long, Erka had stopped her car in front of a campus. The comfortable-looking multi-storey building began to fill with students and students. 

“Thank you, Brother.” Ayleen took off his seatbelt.

“Hmm.” Erka's focus was still on the steering wheel in her hand.

“I go first.” Ayleen opened the car door and stepped out. Standing staring at his brother's beloved black vehicle, he turned around. The girl was just about to wave her hand as the iron carriage Erka was driving away.

“He doesn't even care about me.” Ayleen said softly. Hugging the stocky city, he turned around and walked unsteadily towards the campus building. 

The wavy long hair dyed dark brown was swaying as the legs stepped. While playing the strap of her bag, the girl tried to ignore many things that made her feelings chaotic.

Driving his car as far as 500 meters, Erka suddenly turned back. I lied to Ayleen and myself. There are no clients, no corporate affairs, it can even be said that he has no business in Bandung. 

For some reason, his heart was disturbed when he found out that Mommy and Daddy left without Ayleen. His feelings were not calm, like there was a strong urge and finally made him decide to go to Bandung when his own wife was giving birth in Jakarta.

Stopping the speed of his car right in the courtyard of the restaurant opposite the campus, the man in a suit of a dress shirt and jet-black denim pants seemed to release the seatbelt that wrapped around his body.

Looking at the lecture hall, Erka froze for a moment until she finally pulled her phone out of her pants pocket and contacted someone. No need to wait long, someone greeted him from across the street.

“Yes, Sir. What's up?”
