My Brother's Friend

My Brother's Friend
Why brother, not the others?



Me and Brother Jo were so moved when they saw the sight, seeing where sincere and reciprocated love would now be anchored to an estuary of happiness.


Many years of pent-up love eventually grew and sprouted and has now become a leaf and even a flower.


The eyes of the two of them cannot be separated from what happened tonight, I have not seen Bang Reza this happy for a long time.


The sweet smile from Bang Reza's lips was so clearly markedly engraved there, so was Syafa, repeatedly his eyes shifted from Bang Reza and on the now beautifully circular ring on his tiny ring finger.


"Thank you, sister" Syafa said when he saw a ring around his finger.


"Sama-sama, thank you also because you have been patiently waiting for this love" continued Bang Reza while holding Syafa's hand


"Stop, not yet muhrim!" said Kak Jo when he saw Bang Reza who wanted to kiss Syafa's hand. The activity stopped, both of them looked nervous and misbehaved.


"Yes, I know" said Bang Reza then shifted his seat a bit away from Syafa who now still looks embarrassed because of the act of Brother Jo.


I approached Syafa, "Sister-in-law, congratulations" I hugged him and he returned my arms.


"Thank you, Reza. Because you have really proven Reza's love for your daughter" Syafa's father began to open his voice after a few minutes of silence watching his happy son. Bang Reza then shifted his seat to the side of Syafa's parents


"Together, Om. Reza himself also thanked Om and Aunt for allowing Reza to be with Syafa" replied Bang Reza


"From now on do not call us Om and Aunt, call us Mama and Papa, just like Syafa" Bang Reza nodded steadily.


Everyone seemed happy, not least the two parents Syafa who was now sitting together with Bang Reza and Kak Jo. Syafa and I chatted together and didn't want to interfere in adult conversation.


"Let's have dinner" Shafa's mother asked after what they were talking about seemed to be done. The five of us immediately got up and then walked towards the dining room.


The dinner is over. Me, Bang Reza and Brother Jo also say goodbye. Happiness is still visible on our faces even though now Syafa looks a bit sad because he has to separate from Bang Reza, yes even though this is just a regular farewell. Tomorrow they can meet again.


It's hard if people fall in love again. The carry keeps sticking like a lizard to the wall.


"I'll come here again tomorrow, after I get home from college" Bang Reza wiped the tears that were now shed on Syafa's cheek, both are still on the terrace of Syafa's house while the others are already in the courtyard.


Shafa nodded, "Yes, be careful, Brother. Call me when you get home"


"Yes, dear" Bang Reza suddenly kissed Syafa's forehead while still bowing her head. Shafa widened his eyes after it happened and looked at Bang Reza


"Silent" Bang Reza placed her index finger on Syafa's lips to keep Syafa from making a sound and to make others suspicious


Syafa then kept silent and without warning he returned the kiss which he now placed on Bang Reza's cheek. Bang Reza was no less surprised by the attitude of Syafa who now dared to kiss him.


"Dare ya now" Bang Reza commented on the smile and tightly grasped Shafa's fingers,


"Reza!" yelled Brother Jo who at that time again thwarted Bang Reza who was about to kiss Shafa's hand. Both of them returned awkwardly and moved away.


The three of us immediately say goodbye and get into Kak Jo's car. At that time, Bang Reza and Syafa still gave codes to each other who either code what it means.


The car we were riding was traveling at medium speed, splitting the night crowd which this time felt denser than before.


A few minutes later, we arrived home. The car we were riding in got into my yard. We three went down


"Come in, Jo" Brother Jo nodded and immediately walked quickly into the house, leaving me and Brother Jo who were now walking leisurely.


I realized that Brother Reza actually gave time for Kak Jo and myself to chat, but I was still awkward and then took the initiative to catch up with Bang Reza


However, the unexpected happened. Just now I stepped suddenly Brother Jo's hand blocked me and it automatically made me stop and look at him.


"Can we talk?" his face looked serious, without my consent, he immediately led me back into the car.


I who until now still feel a little disappointed because Brother Jo only considers me as his sister and nothing more. While I myself expected more from him but basically only I myself have that feeling.


"Why did you keep pouting, aren't you happy to see Reza happy?" I shook my head


"Continue?" He was still asking for answers to what he was asking. But I myself do not know what to answer, it would be strange if I had to say if I was disappointed because I was only considered a sister by him. Shame seven derivatives of course.


"I'm just afraid, if later Bang Reza will focus more on Syafa and ignore me" I replied softly as I lowered my head. Out of nowhere the answer suddenly shot out of my mouth


Brother Jo rubbed my head gently, encouraging me. But I myself instead interpreted the attention differently and as a result for the last time I realized if I was just a sister and nothing more


"So you're jealous of Shafa, you said he's your best friend, so why should you be jealous?" the question in a row came out of the words of Kak Jo who now spoke softly


I just shook my head and didn't know what to answer. Brother Jo gets closer and then grabs my body, hugging it with a warm hug. The heart feels like it will escape from its place, cold sweat and trembling body are now spread.


"Don't be jealous of the wrong people!" he continued, releasing that hug, the brotherly embrace that I had misunderstood.


I didn't dare look at her, because I didn't want her to see my face flushed with nervousness.


"Sorry," Brother Jo smiled


"Don't apologize to me, apologize to yourself. Reza will never leave you, I can guarantee it. And if she really left you for her lover, then remember, I'm still here to be your sister"


"Why should you be a brother, not another?" my mind and then I nodded


"Come down, I want to talk to Reza" we got out of the car and rushed into the house, once again the unexpected happened, Brother Jo held my hand tightly


Happiness and pain arise together, I can not interpret whether this taste like the opposite sex or just limited to brothers. I don't know
