Misplaced Taste

REVEALED

"STOP IT!" a man shouted not far from them.

They all turned to look at the source of the sound. Raisa closed her eyes when she realized who the owner of the voice was.

"Campus," inner.

"I don't want Brother Devan to be honest in front of them" Raisa said.

The man walked over to Raisa. The man immediately hugged Raisa who looked wet from being doused in water.

Raisa closed her eyes in the arms of Devan, her older brother. He sought refuge and comfort there. Unintentionally too, her tears were dripping without warning. In fact, usually Raisa never cried just for such trivial things.

"You guys again!" annoyed Gio who just came with Devan.

"Lu know them?" devan asked in a cold tone.

"They're Raisa's upperclassmen who like her," replied Gio.

"They've been troublemaking twice at Melody Cafe. Today they are back again" Gio explained.

"Why can they come back?" ask Devan.

"Aren't people like them inappropriate here?" devan stared in horror at Audy, Sinta, and Nayla.

"Yesterday one of these three guys booked a table here for a birthday event and involved Raisa" Gio explained.

"On the list are only four and there are none of them. But the cave doesn't know why they exist" continued Gio.

"They came uninvited, brother," said Revan.

"If not invited, shouldn't they be regular visitors? Why make a storm here?" devan asked in a cold tone.

"Isn't your desk VIP?" devan asked after looking at the place and table occupied by Rasya and his comrades.

"These three kids really like to make trouble, brother. At school too" said Aldo.

"Raisa has always been the target" Rasya added.

Devan looks up at Audy, Nayla, and Sinta.

"What are you doing to bully Raisa?" devan asked in an cold tone that was not pleasant to hear.

"Audy is jealous," Sinta replied innocently.

"Jealous?" devan parrot.

"Maybe one of them likes Rasya" Gio said.

"Rase?" rean Devan was confused.

"Rasya, Raisa's upperclassman who has taken Raisa home several times and helped Raisa when they bullied her," Gio explained.

"So because of that?" ask Devan again.

The Fucking Wek-Wek Trio just looked down and did not dare to look at Devan. Devan's eyes looked like an eagle ready to pounce on its prey. So, they were afraid to look at Devan.

"ANSWER!" devan Sentak.

"Y-yes, ka-kak," answered Nayla stammered.

"A-Audy ya-yang su-like, bully Raisa," said Nayla ventured.

"Because he did not want to lose with Raisa who always cared for Rasya," added Sinta.

"Lied!" objection Audy.

"The two of you too" he said staring at his two friends, Sinta and Nayla.

"You should have read it!" exclaim Devan.

"You said Raisa was a snake. But you are the serpent yourself" Devan sneered.

"As far as you know, I really don't like it when someone hurts my sister!" devan said firmly and clearly.

"SISTER?" peekkik Audy, Sinta, Nayla, Revan, and Aldo simultaneously.

"Yes," replied Devan flatly.

"Raisa Isabella is my sister, Isa Devano. Raisa is the second child of Meda Isa Al-Zabet and Medina Princess Isabel" Devan revealed to be the real Raisa.

"Sister," call Raisa pull her sister's shirt.

"Don't reveal it" said Raisa.

"Let them know" Devan replied.

"Why? You surprised?" devan asked with his smirk.

"Raisa is my beloved sister. He's my brother who went missing a dozen years ago" Devan said.

"Whoever would dare to hurt her. Then, he will deal with me!" devan.

Devan takes off his embrace with Raisa. Staring at the face of ayu Raisa who was seen there were still traces of slaps on her cheeks and some water droplets.

"It must have hurt" said Devan stroking Raisa's cheek.

Raisa shook her head.

"Gi, you take care of them. Gua wants to cure Raisa," said Devan passed leaving Rasya's desk.

"Big!" gio Sahut.

Gio stared at the horror one by one from the Fucking Wek-Wek Trio.

"Three times we met" said Gio coldly.

"How, aren't you guys kapok?" ask Gio.

Audy, Sinta, and Nayla had no voice.

"You have hurt the beloved sister of the owner of this cafe" said Gio.

"Not just once, but many times" he continued.

"Do you want to go to the police station for violence and bullying?" ask Gio.

Aady and her two friends shook their heads.

"You want to be punished also won't be kapok right?" gio asked one by one from Audy and his friends.

"You guys what?" ask again.

"You have a severe punishment, brother," Revan told Gio.

"This time, you've gone too far. As punishment, I want you guys to clear the Melody Cafe area for a month!" exclaim Gio.

"WHAT?" pekik Audy, Sinta, and Nayla.

"You want to add?" ask Gio.

"No, that's enough" replied Audy.

"You'll clean the tables, chairs and trash every Melody Cafe will cover. Also wash dishes and glasses every school holiday from morning!" keep Gio.

"Crazy!" Nayla.

"The protest is the same as asking for more" Gio said.

"Fine," said Sinta.

"Yuk go," take Sinta to her friends.

Rasya felt guilty about the incident. Because of him, Raisa must be wretched again.

"On the commotion that occurred, we apologize, brother," Rasya said with regret.

Gio looked coldly at Rasya. "You've already done Raisa twice wrong" said Gio.

"Consider the distance to Raisa. Don't let him be wretched again because of you!" gio leaves Rasya, Aldo, and Revan.

"Gerrily," said Aldo.

"The shop is horrified" said Revan.

"Back home!" rasha told her two friends.

"Failed because of Mak Lampir," Aldo grumbled as he walked along Rasya.

"When it's sweet" said Revan.

...****************...

In Gio's room, Devan was treating the wound on Raisa's cheek.

"It hurts, huh?" ask Devan carefully.

Raisa again just shook her head. To be honest, Raisa did not feel any pain at all. He was just surprised by the actions of his upperclassman.

"You're quiet, why?" devan asked while compressing Raisa's cheek.

Raisa shook her head. "Father," he answered flatly.

"It's sorted out," Gio said as soon as he entered the room. He immediately sat on the singe sofa in his study.

"That's really the kid," infuriated Devan.

"Udah, sister," said Raisa preventing Devan's hand from compressing her again.

"Oke-okay," said Devan.

"Hold, yeah. Here I give you the ointment," said Devan as he rubbed the ointment on Raisa's cheek.

"Thank you," Raisa said with a faint smile.

"Together."

"What was the story, Rai?" ask Gio curiously.

"I don't know either, brother. Suddenly," Raisa replied without looking at Gio. His vision was only in one direction, the front.

"You like that guy?" devan asked his sister.

Raisa quiet. Likey? Oh come. Raisa has been living without a man. Will she fall in love that easily? No one knows the human heart either, right?

"No," answered Raisa flatly.

"Yes already."

"Would you like to go home?" ask Devan.

Raisa shakes. "My head is dizzy" he said.

"Rest here first," said Devan leaning Raisa's head on his shoulder.

"Would you like to go back to Oma's house?" devan asked as he stroked the top of his sister's head.

"You" he answered softly.

"Well, go home later, yeah. Tomorrow's off too, right?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Gi, you guys are nginep. The cave wants to discuss something" Devan told Gio.

"okay."

Raisa slowly closed her eyes. Gio who realized that also told Devan.

"Your sister is sleeping" said Gio.

"What time?" devan asked, turning to Raisa who was asleep on her right shoulder.

"Funny," muttered Devan who could be heard by Gio.

"Emang" said Gio.

"Ck! You like?" guess Devan.

Gio just slicked his shoulders.

"All right, don't frown" Devan said with a faint smile.

"Ga's yawning," Gio argued.

"Mending you take Raisa home. Poor he must be tired," Gio shifted the topic.

"Yes," said Devan.

"Lu bring the cave car," said Devan throwing his car keys.

"Cave car?" ask Gio.

"Stay," Devan answered by bringing Raisa in his carrier.

Gio starts driving towards Devan's house. Fortunately Melody Cafe has been empty of visitors and employees are home. So do not create controversy with the carrying of Raisa by Devan.
