Snuggle

"Lita!" Max did not dare to pursue her. He clenched his hands with anxiety.

"You see what you're doing? Lita now dares to defy me." Max is angry at Hades. "If you're serious, ask him. Don't you play him like that. Maybe, I can consider you," he bargained.

You know, so he's not jealous at all? Hades glanced towards Miriam's room. And you, still holding out for this?

"Mas Hadi, did you hear my words?"

"Yes, sir."

-----------+++------------

Dinner was quiet, because Miriam did not want to come out of her room. Max finally came to Miriam's room. He knocked on the door, but there was no answer. Then he opened the door.

Miriam was sitting on the bed facing the window.

The man came to him. "Lita, why are you mad at me? I'm trying to protect you."

"Protect? What if I ask?"

Max surprised. "Lita, that can't be, can it?" He looked at the face of the angry girl. "Lita, you're a woman. Take care of yourself properly."

" With what? By imprisoning myself in this house? Then what am I supposed to be? The display?"

"Astaghfirullah alazim Lita. I have no intention of making you isolated, Lita. Didn't I take you to different places so you wouldn't be lonely at home?"

"But why has it changed?"

"Change what? I'm taking care of my wedding to Anna and it's only temporary, Lita. Until I can marry my lover."

"Then after that?" asked Miriam sarcastically. He stood up while folding his hands on his chest.

"Yes we live three. The house will be crowded."

"Is that so?" Miriam raised her eyebrows.

"Lita what do you mean?"

"You'll be busy with Anna and definitely forget about me."

Max smile. "You're jealous of Anna?" He touched Miriam's shoulder but the girl brushed it off.

"I'm not jealous but right now, how many times a day are you talking to me?"

"Now a lot."

"Before?"

"Mc ...."

"You're busy calling."

"Lita, I told you, it's only temporary."

"Just start you like this ...." Her tears began to melt. He was afraid that Max might see the pearl coming out of his eyes because he quickly climbed onto the bed and into the blanket. He closed his body to his head.

"Lita ...." Soon the man sat on the edge of the place. "Lita, I ...." There was no intention from Max to ignore Miriam but what she did was only temporary so that she could get married quickly to Anna and after that she would take care of Miriam. He initially wanted to match Miriam with Hadi but now he is hesitant.

"Lita, please understand. Brother has no intention of ignoring you. I love you, Lita, like my own sister."

Thats problem. You love me like your own sister. What if I don't think so Max? What if I love you? If I tell you this, will you change? No, right? Then why am I staying here when I realize I'm so sick. Miriam cried sobbing that many tears fell from her eyes inside the blanket.

"Lita, I think I was wrong to give Mas Hadi too much freedom. Maybe ...."

"That's not true, Lita. You're not a fucking carrier. You're the girl who's given her own color to my life right now, Lita. You are my most special sister."

And I don't need that. Miriam is still crying.

"Lita ...."

Max is unable to quell Miriam's cries.

------------+++------------

Miriam woke. Looks like it's night and the room lights forgot to turn on. He peeked out from under the covers and though it was dark, he could see that there was no Max.

He had trouble moving out of bed because of the many pearls in the blanket. Therefore he threw some of it on the floor so he could get down. Then he turned on the lights.

It was almost midnight, he was hungry. Immediately he slipped out of the room. It looks like it's quiet outside. Then he went down the stairs.

The girl came to the kitchen which looked dark. He went to the fridge and checked the contents. Tumben he didn't see meat. Usually on this shelf full but now?

"Lita, are you looking for this?" Suddenly the lights came on. There was Max in the kitchen and on the kitchen table was his favorite steak dish that was perfectly cooked. "You want this, don't you?"

"Sister Max?"

"Lita, I'm sorry. I know I may be insensitive but I love you, worry about you, and think about your future. Can't you forgive me?" Max, who knew he was right, tried to give up for the sake of the girl to stop her lull that had been more than 2 days and he was just an ordinary man who did not know how to stop a woman's anger.

Am I in your future? Or is there only Anna in your heart? Miriam knew the answer but she just wanted Max to answer it differently. But in the end it only exists in wishful thinking not in real. He was too afraid to burden his heart now.

"Lita, please forgive your stupid sister."

Miriam stepped closer. There was no point in fighting with him now as the result would remain the same. He would choose Anna because she was actually a comforting barrier. "Yes, already. I'm hungry." He tries to be a little happy with what is now. Try resisting, just gonna keep Max away from him.

The man pulled the chair for Miriam happily. He also sat next to the girl. As Miriam ate, she bribed the man as well.

"Mmh, good," said Max with a big smile.

They try to tear down the defensive walls of selfishness for the good of their loved ones.

--------------+++-------------

"Lit."

Miriam lifted her eyes. "Mmh?"

"Would you come see the building preparations?"

"Max's sister will be disturbed again, if there's Lita."

"Oh, no. A lot is almost done. 'There are 2 days to apply."

Miriam's heart feels like it's going to be dislodged. Two more days? Time just drifted away quickly.

"Hows it? Wanna come? Anna brought you too. He said, we'll eat rabbit meat satay."

"Sate bunny?" Miriam's saliva almost dripped imagining the taste. Must be delicious huh? "You, want, want, want, want."

"Just say 'want', Lita. Brother understands." Max develops a smile in his mouth when he remembers Lita's fondness for eating meat that makes this girl easily persuaded and only Anna remembers that. "It's gonna be a little afternoon we're out, huh?"

"Yes," replied the girl whose eyes were bright because she was so curious about the taste of rabbit satay. He ate omelets with vigor.

Lita was just sitting in a chair when both Max and Anna went with an employee to see the building to be worn on their wedding day.
