From the reflection of the mirror Seira can see the part of his body that has a lot of red traces. The trail that Alex made last night. His mind said he should be angry but his heart said no.
“What is this feeling? Why am I like this?” Seira hit his chest slowly. Feeling upset when his heart and mind are out of line.
Maybe it was because he was wrong too. Not listening to his sister's warning. But there is something in my heart that still holds. Something strange feeling he just felt. But what, I don't know…
While Seira is unable to understand her own unclear feelings, she chooses to cleanse her body with the warm water that Alex had prepared. The man believes Seira's core is still painful, so he filled the bath with warm water to reduce the pain of their struggle last night.
The bathroom door opened when Seira managed to turn the door handle. Alex turned off the phone and looked at Seira in silence. Both of his eyes continued to look towards Seira who had just come out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her chest to above her knees. Alex swallowed the saliva violently. Oh God it feels like Alex's body is back in heat when the scenes last night begin to cross back in the shadow of his mind.
“Kak.” call Seira realize Alex throw away dirty thoughts that he had wanted back.
The man cleared his throat to neutralize his body. This isn't the first time Alex has seen Seira like that. But it feels different this time. It's so different. There's a sense of wanting to come closer and then hug, then kiss and then ah.
“Your clothes are there because the old ones you threw away.” Seira did not answer he just nodded slowly. Then one footstep alternately walked to pick up the paper bag containing his clothes.
“Replace here brother will turn around.” Alex seemed to already know the meaning of Seira's eyes. Without waiting for a long time Seira immediately changed clothes when her brother had turned his back on her. Besides why they have to turn around, haven't they seen each other. But it's up to them. After all, who run them both.
“Before we go home for breakfast first. Sister is waiting for you at the restaurant downstairs.” without waiting for Seira Alex's answer to come out of the room. Seira's eyes look sad as she looks at her brother's body begins to disappear behind the door.
“Kakak.” says

Sean's Mansion
Alex's car enters a luxury home garage. The house where Sean and Naura's children grew up together. From his marriage Inara was blessed with three hearts. The first one was named Seira. Their second son was named Bryan. It seems two children are enough for Inara but who would have thought God gave them again the gift of a third child named Emily.
Seira holds Alex's arm about to get off the car. “Kak.” both their eyes meet each other. In a few seconds, we dive into each other. Find out what each one of them wants.
“What's up?” Alex sits down to face Seira. The little boy she once sheltered now grew into an adult girl.
“Don't tell mom or dad about last night's incident.” the door.
“But Seira.” Alex seems to disagree with the decision taken by Seira.
“Seira please kak.” pinta Seira sincerely clenched her hands in front of her face which this morning looks pale. Alex breathed his breath out violently. If it had been like that he could not refuse Seira's request.
To be honest Seira did not want to make her parents angry with Alex. And drove the men out of their homes. Let her go later.
This was what Seira was afraid of as well. Because they did it many times without safety. Hopefully that doesn't happen because Seira is not in fertile period. According to his calculations if five more days he comes the month then it can be ascertained that he is not pregnant. But what if there are two red lines. Ah it feels like Seira is getting dizzy but she does not show it in front of her brother.
“Possibly a little pregnant sister because I'm not in fertile period now.” somehow Alex's heart looks a little disappointed. In the depths of her heart she wanted her seed to grow in Seira's womb.
“But if you are pregnant the first person you should tell is sister.” he said in a firm tone.
Seira nodded then got out of the car followed by Alex walking behind him. The house feels empty. There was no voice inside. Maybe they went to work or school.
Alex was looking for the key in his pants pocket. Insert the key into the door hole and push the brown wooden door to open it.
Seira entered first after Alex gestured with a head gesture.
“Sepi once where aunty and mama.” muttered Seira, he stepped his feet to go inside. Even with Alex trailing behind Seira. Both scan every corner of the house to look for residents. But the atmosphere is so quiet. No one is in the house.
“Surprise.” shouted everyone who had been standing behind the wall.
“Get year, who's birthday.” thought Seira.
“Kakak.” Seira looked back where Alex was standing. The girl only realized that today was her brother's birthday.
Emily brought a box-shaped chocolate cake with a lettering emblazoned with Happy Birtday and a few cherries on top. Do not miss two candles with symbols 2 and 4.
“Happy birthday dear.” Mama Inara gave a warm embrace like in previous years. Not forgetting the woman whose skin had begun to age but still looked beautiful it gave him a kiss on the forehead of the man whom he had always considered as their eldest son.
Alex was not at all uncomfortable, he was happy. Every hug and kiss she receives from both her father and her mother signifies that they love and love her. The love he never got from his biological parents.
“Happy birthday brother.” hugged Bryan alternately after papa congratulated his elder brother.
“I also want to hug brother. So quickly blow out the candles. It feels like my hands have been sore from earlier holding this cake.” regretted making Alex widen a smile to his sister who was carrying and then ruffled Emily's hair gently.
Alex blew a small blaze over the number 24. But before that he closed his eyes praying first to ask God for something. After that take the cake knife given by Byan. Alex cut the cake. And give the first piece of cake to mama and papa. Alex was silent for a moment while giving Seira a third piece of cake.
Not wanting to make the family feel strange Seira immediately ate the piece of cake. Seeing Seira's movements made Alex realize. The rest of the pieces he gave to Bryan and Emily in turn.
“Where are you guys from?”
