My brother, my destiny

Attempts

"Mark, please don't be like this!" Luisa tried to stop Mark from coming out of her room.

"Go if you want to go! I can be on my own without anyone" Mark flat and coldly walked out of his room.

"Mk..." Said Luisa in a soft tone. Luisa got up from the balcony and put on her clothes that splattered on the floor. After that he came out of Mark's room and went into his own room. All these years he has lived with Mark. Luisa herself decided to bond with Mark even though it was impossible for the man to see her in the slightest. Luisa took her phone to contact someone.

"Dad..." Sapa Luisa with a soft tone.

"Why you, baby?" Ask a man who is his father.

"Dad, sorry. I can't go home for the next two months. But I promise I'll handle Daddy's company from here" Luisa tries to make her tone clear that her father doesn't know she's holding back tears.

"Em.all right, baby. Daddy's still gonna wait for you to come home at any time" the father sounded so heavy that he let his daughter delay her return.

"I'm sorry Dad. I still have a job, I close first" Luisa chose to end her call especially when she heard her father's cough.

"I'm sorry Daddy" Luisa sobbed and held her chest tight. As engrossed in tears, Luisa felt a pair of burly hands coiling around her body.

"I'll come with you" the heavy voice sounded so melodious in Luisa's ears.

"But Mark..."

"If you can't stay, then I'll come with you" Mark stared in those pair of green eyes.

"Don't. You won't feel at home there. My dad is very chatty and he will definitely keep telling us to get married. You know he always was..."

"I don't mind" Mark again cut off Luisa's words.

"What do you mean?" Luisa asked with a heartbeat starting to go wrong. Mark took off his embrace from Luisa and sat down beside Luisa. Mark grabbed both of Luisa's hands into his grasp.

"I know..." Mark's one hand now touched Luisa's cheek.

"I knew all along you secretly loved me. That's why you're sticking with all my bad qualities. You're trying to do everything for me so I can see you a little bit. Luisa, I was once abandoned and I dare not pursue. But I don't want to be left for a second time. If you really have to go home, then let me come with you. I want to get to know your father, the man who raised his daughter to be a great woman" Mark kissed Luisa's forehead deeply.

"Mk..." Luisa pinched the man's arm very strongly.

"Arghh...what the fuck are you?" Mark shook Luisa's hand. His arms instantly became red and felt so bright and hot.

"I'm not dreaming?" Luisa's still in disbelief. Mark wants to go further into his life, right? Mark wants to go with him?

"You're not a dream, baby. I'm serious..." Mark took Luisa's hand.

"I want to live better. If Jacob can, I should too" Mark smiled at Luisa.

"Mark, you don't have to compete with Jacob. You are brothers despite your differences, so you should support each other instead of competing. Jacob alone never minded thinking of you as his sister even though he was a little careless" Luisa tried to persuade the hard man. During this time Mark always wanted to compete with Jacob and Jacob who actually gave up a lot.

"Eum..." Mark pulled Luisa into his arms.

"Teach me love you right. Do you want to start our relationship from the beginning? Start things off better" Mark asked softly. I don't know what demon possessed the man's mind until it suddenly changed just like that. Clearly Luisa would not let go of this opportunity.

"Em.I will teach you" Luisa nodded in spirit and hugged Mark no less tightly.

"Hopefully my decision this time is absolutely right and I won't regret it" Mark said.

"Darling, have you?" Jacob who had come to the Gemini cake shop approached his wife who was preparing the cake equipment.

"Ah, already" Gemini wiped his hands with a handkerchief.

"Tante, want to follow?" Jacob asked Riska who was going to go up to his room to rest.

"With Jack, next time. You feel good disturbing people dating. Aunt ride first yeah.." Riska smiled mischievously and immediately went up to her room.

"Let's go baby" Jacob reached out his hand and was immediately greeted by Gemini. They got out of the cake shop and walked to the cafe they had visited the other day.

"We'll just go straight upstairs. I've booked a table for us" Jacob gently pulled his wife's hand toward the top floor of the cafe.

"They provide a table for the upstairs too?" Gemini asked confusedly.

"actually no. I ordered the special and they certainly didn't mind" Jacob smiled proudly and led Gemini to sit in the chair that had been provided.

"This is amazing" Gemini was so amazed to see the interior of the cafe's top floor, so a variety of Indonesian specialties neatly arranged there.

"You like it?" Jacob asked smiling.

"Like. Oh baby, you really are..." Gemini was at a loss for words to praise her husband.

"Then keep smiling and be my Gemini forever" Jacob grabbed his wife's hand and kissed Gemini's back.

"Do you want to order food?" Jacob asked to see his wife who was still busy looking at the spacious room.

"Later. I'd like to take a look around for a second" Gemini stepped out of his chair. Gemini circled the spacious room and was so excited to see all the items that he already knew and learned while still in school. Gemini stops when the view looks out the room's divider.

"What's wrong?" Jacob hugged Gemini from behind.

"A few months to Christmas. This year I'm not celebrating with my family" Gemini smiled.

"Hey, I'm your family now. We can make a video call to them" Jacob suggested.

"Em.right. But still it feels different" Gemini becomes melow and turns to hug her husband.

"Ehm.later think how. There's still a few months left. Now it's better that we order some food" Jacob led his wife to sit back. Jacob pressed a remote he got from the waiter. Moments later a well-dressed man approached Jacob and Gemini who were busy looking at the menu book.

"What do you want to eat, baby?" Ask Jacob.

"I'm confused..." Gemini closed the menu book and glanced at the man waiting for their order.

"Frisco?" Gemini looked up at the man she knew.

"Gemini?" The man named Frisco was no less surprised.

"You know each other?" Jacob asked curiously.

"We..."
