My Complicated Love: Triangle Love + You

S2: Great Guest

We looked at each other, Brian grabbed my sweaty hands and held them tightly.

"Nervous?"

"He—eh, a little bit" I replied slowly.

"Relax .. not as you think, come on .. miss positive mindset ..." she said.

"This is another matter, Bri ..."

"It's okay, i'm with you" Brian persuaded with a smile and rubbed my arms.

I nodded while biting my lips, trying to brace myself and fully convinced that this was not something I should be worried about. The more panic .. the more stupid my performance will be .. Just think of this as my presentation in front of the bosses who want a good performance ...

'But this is different, kaaan ...'

I returned a smile while taking a deep breath and released it slowly.

So short of time, it feels fast when the gate is open and the vehicle drove into the yard area. Brian led me to the main hall, and moments later came Uncle and a woman in her late 50s who still looked beautiful, with a dress that looks semi-formal green tosca short-sleeved and knee length. With her height of about 170 plus the light brown kitten heels she wears, she looks younger than her age. Very elegant ...

'I am young like this is given a black color .. Oh my goodness Bri ..' my inner self.

It is true that my lover's choice, I prefer colors that are not far from black, white and brown. Rarely use any other color. It might be more suited to my non-feminine aura.

The woman walked over with a smile towards her only child who is having a birthday today. Her hazel eyes glanced occasionally at me.

Of course they communicate with the local language and their thick British accent. Oooh .. whether I'm in Notting Hill ...

"Honey," hugged Brian and kissed him on both cheeks. "ah, the weather tonight is not cold at all, thank God you don't have to use the coat"

"Mama has not visited Indonesia for too long, Welcome to my house 'Ma ..." while releasing the hug "This is Susan .." he said without further ado directly wrapped one of his hands around my waist. As if giving strength that he was here to lead me to face his Mama.

"Oh, Susan? hi baby ..." reached out

"Hi, Mrs William .., Susan, nice to meet you" welcomed her hand to shake hands.

"Annette .. just call Anne" greeted me and hugged me for a moment.

His eyes rolled towards Brian then smiled and looked at me again.

'Ah, I was a little more relieved, but my detection of sensitivity momentarily disappeared not knowing the meaning of the smile and the momentary look she had on her son'

'Why do I think more as if he were saying .. this is our food .. than .. This is my son-in-law's candidate, my positive thoughts'

Apparently true to my estimation, Brian probably looks more like his father, than his brown eyeballs and hair, certainly Brian who has a slightly brownish blonde hair and gray eyes, he said, obviously none of this woman.

Uncle then followed after greeting me, the haughty fellow.

"Susan, we meet again" he said, shaking hands "you are different tonight .." he added, still smiling haughtily.

"Hi, Uncle .. glad to see you again" I said with a smile.

'This is pretending to be you .., Uncle' my inner self.

Adam and Leo welcomed our two great guests.

Then we all walked into the dining room, Brian grabbed his mother's back and his other hand held my hand tightly.

Brian pulled a chair for his mom and then for me, Uncle? with the servants alone, he could be alone.

Brian sat right next to me, opposite his mother and Uncle, then Leo and Adam were also sitting opposite to us. Because they are part of our family.

I wouldn't have started the conversation if I hadn't been asked anything, like Brian's message ...

'Answer only when asked, Mama doesn't usually talk when eating the main course'

"How many percent has it been since uncle last checked this house, Bri?" ask Uncle before bribing a spoonful of salad in his hand.

"Nearly finished, just a little bit on the back, still constrained the depth of excavation for the pool, he said. How can they be the wrong size? I'm also impatient with the process, Dave"

"Missize? yudha's calculations are never wrong, Bri, I make sure they are reliable people who contribute to the process of building this house, even it must be faster than expected. They used to handle Estate and Apartments, what reason makes one house just this long process!"

"A—ah yes ..., yes, but I still ask him to monitor the progress of your house as well, Bri" replied Uncle a little nervous.

"That's all I know. Just for info, I just want this house finished next month, Dave"

Mama Anne interrupted the stiff conversation.

"What kind of talk are you talking about at dinner with guests? I feel like this salad is a cement sauce .." - Mama Anne

'It turns out my future in-laws can joke too, uh, is he kidding? or seriously, it's a good thing I don't spout salad out of my mouth if I don't hold back'

I smiled knots holding laughter in my heart.

"I want Bri to immediately get his house already habitable, Anne .." said Uncle slowly as he glanced at Mama Anne. Mama Anne looked back at Uncle who was next to her.

'Why would Uncle look at him in such a way? or my mind just started to get messed up'

Brian looked at his Mama then rolled his eyes, turned his head towards me, his eyes were staring coldly as if to say ...

'Don't laugh, keep eating you'

Not very relaxed this child ...

"Sorry Ma .. I should know Mama's planned arrival, so I make sure the time for you to see this house is perfect"

"No need to rush, Mama just wants to meet with her son, not the building. Then ... Susan," she shifted her gaze toward me, DEG. "you've known Ian for a long time?"

'Ian .. oh, that's her mama's favorite call for Bri'

"A—aku, yes ... already, we have known for a long time"

"She's former student Ian, Anne" Uncle added as he then sipped water in his glass, stopping the salad he was eating.

'Just start the mouth of the man of these two realms along to unload my identity'

"Student? which university?"

"That's when we knew Ma, we used to be friends .. he helped me with my research" Brian put down his salad fork and grabbed my hand on the desk. I automatically put the fork in my hand on the salad plate and he kissed the back of my hand.

"As a subject, right?" add Uncle in a cold tone.

Brian and I were stunned to hear uncle's words, why interfere with our personal affairs.

"Subject?" ask Mama Anne.

"Eh, yeah. I asked for it and we both finished my final research together" Brian replied a little nervously. "but .. instead, he led me to peel the real problem, I was saved by him ..., that was before my return to London, Mama knows, right? I told you about it, and Susan was ..." Brian smiled and looked at me.

Mama Anne momentarily frowned, her eyeballs twitching like trying to remember.

"This ... did you ever tell me about? so, Susan?"

"E—eh I .. don't know what Brian has said before" I looked at Mama Anne while explaining my ignorance, then glanced at Brian and lowered my voice "what are you talking about Bri?"

"No, just saying you're special"

"Thank you, Susan. Ian told me so many stories about you back then, I don't think I'm going to meet anyone who can wake my son up to have a girlfriend, thank God. Almost afraid Ian can not date ... with women"

Instantly silent atmosphere ...

No one welcomed Mama Anne's words, not even a subtle breath could be heard in the echoes of the room, it seems we are aware of Mama Anne's words are quite relevant to the status of Uncle who has a same-sex partner.

Adam and Leo who had been trying to be quiet did not dare to interrupt the conversation, so they held back even just smiling at the end of their lips.

'Author score, 1 - 0, Uncle!' my mind was eager to laugh with satisfaction at Uncle who suddenly indifferently played the index finger on the lips of the glass he held.

"Congratulations, Susan" said Uncle, raising his glass as a sign to invite us all. He looked at me with a grinning smile.
