My Sugar Brothers

23. Winter Bear, Tiger, and Aussie

Lea blinked her eyes again for the second time as she saw two dolls who might be able to hold her body in her bed. The girl turned her head, looking at the sweet-smiling Asa in the doorway. " Is this Asa's brother who bought it?"

Asa chuckled while nodding. "a few times Big Brother saw someone running out of the room while crying, so brother buyin bodyguard to keep you in a dream and sleep you stay good."

Lea fell silent. He did not know that Asa knew of a strange habit often called somnabulism or sleepwalking. Lea began to experience it before long he returned from Bandung. The city had truly become a terrible sentence to him. Usually when he wakes up at dawn, he is in the corner of the warehouse door, and returns to the room as if he was sleeping there without sleep disturbances.

He didn't think Asa knew. He must have added to the burden of the man's mind.

" you're not a burden to your brother, but a responsibility. Now there's a Winter Bear that keeps you and Tiger safe."

Lea smiled as she touched the two truly large puppets. Is this brother not too sweet? Lea feels anxious to get this sweet treatment.

" Lea, if I told you I liked you, what would you say?"

" uh?"

" answer." There was no sweet smile or doubt on the man's face.it really looked serious as if it had anything to do with his future fate.

" why are you suddenly talking like this? no more talking dolls." wonder girl. He was also nervous instead of playing, why did he suddenly get a sentence like this?

Asa knelt before Leah, clasped her hand, and stared at the woman who had stolen her heart 3 years ago.

" Asa Aldebara Mahardika now expresses her feelings, that she likes, loves and loves Aeleasha Gayatri, not as a sister or friend of her sister, but as a woman named Aeleasha Gayatri, without any intention, she said, regardless of anything from the girl other than herself and her personality.

so, do you accept my feelings, Lea?"

Lea looked doubtfully at Asa. He did not understand why Asa suddenly expressed this serious feeling in his room, with a view as if the man did not accept rejection. All this makes his heart beat instead of playing.

long thought made him remember something. " Sa didn't like someone? why shoot me?"

" it's you Lea." Asa replied directly.

Lea was silent.tightly Asa's grasp seemed to describe how nervous the man was. Leah can't think straight. However, come to think of it, isn't this good for her? That means his feelings are reciprocated, and he can be with Asa.

But does his feelings feel as pure as Asa's feelings for him? does he like and love the man without looking at anything, without any intention?

" i like Asa's sister too." Lea replied while looking down. Of course it made Asa breathe Lega and was about to stand up,

" But I don't know if I like Asa's sister because I help me a lot, or because my sister has always been my back.

can I feel the same way to my sister as I feel to kak bara. right? which turned out to be just the comfortable feeling of a sister who pampered her brother?"

Asa was silent. Lea uttered a reasonable prejudice, but Asa didn't care. "the most important thing is you like big brother, right?" asked the man with a nervous smile.

her inner self hoped that Lea would not reject this relationship she hoped for. Can't this girl let him try to change that fancy word into infatuation?

But Lea's tears made Asa again silent. He knew the consequences of his recklessness were that Lea was not happy, but he did not expect to see the girl's tears.

" But I want you to be happy, and I think, if I haven't responded to your feelings in the same context, you end up with a sad brother." Lea brushed her face, wiped her tears, and looked at Asa's eyes deeply,

" Sister always says I have to take care of myself for my own happiness, right? I also ask brother to do the same.. does Sister can not try with the matchmaking of Mami Kakar?"

" why is it a match? Lea, I'm talking about us! Me, and you. Why did you bring an arranged marriage?"

" because I'm afraid you like me just because of Pity!!!" lea Sentak. The girl covered her face with both hands, hiding the pitiful face of this troublesome person.

" She.."

" Please, Brother. Try first the same matchmaking this. if you have tried and brother still thinks of me. let's try. I'll try to convince my feelings for you as long as you try that matchmaking."

" and if the matchmaking works and you like Big Brother?" Asa subconsciously said it in a cold tone, as if describing that Lea was so stupid in her eyes. Especially when Lea smiled bitterly while wiping her tears and said, "yes means.we are not a match. Sis Asa need not hesitate to stay with me or even expel me. My sister has done too much for me."

The man's fist tightened. He wanted to curse himself which made Leah cry and imagine the ridiculous thing he said. "do as you please."

it was the sentence he said before he came out of Leah's room, letting Leah cry for a moment before falling asleep between the two large dolls Asa had prepared for him.

asa was silent behind the door of her room, staring at the ceiling with a heavy sigh. Regretting his nearness that resulted in the feeling of pain as now.

he panicked too much when he found out that someone had managed to wake Lea up from his panic, and that person was a man. He feared that Lea would be caught by someone else before the girl realized her feelings.

he was afraid of losing Lea. Because losing Lea seemed to lose the shaft in his life. It is like the earth losing its sun. Like the moon that lost its earth.

****

When he woke up and was ready, Asa was nowhere to be seen. He felt suspicious since Farhan had been standing in front of his room, smiling. Lea turned towards Farhan and stared fixedly at the man.

It felt strange to ask Asa when she was not ready to meet the man. " Where is Asa?"

" Aussie, Miss." said Farhan with a bright smile. Lea was silent for a few seconds, not expecting Asa to do as quickly as she asked. Is that guy a submissive dog?

if it does not accept it or not, Asa can refuse and force it, right? lea has no power to deny Asa if the man forces her.

" i told you I'm not Miss. Besides, Mas Farhan there's no work to wait for me to gini?"

Farhan chuckled. "the mandate of Mr. Asa, if Pak Asa does not exist, Miss Lea who has the highest position at home and in the company." Lea shook her head, she didn't understand what she meant, so tried to ignore her.

" i'm going to a cooking course today. Mas Farhan went straight to the office."

Farhan nodded. " I'm taking ya." said Farhan. Lea nodded. He can't refuse. There's no guarantee safe for him.

Lea got to Mas Sam's cooking course too soon. But he himself did not know that Dion the Onion with a flat-faced chili mouth was already there staring at some sheets of paper.

" read what?" ask Lea.

Lea thought to forget about her feelings for a moment. she wanted to calm down for a moment without thinking about the problem, so it doesn't matter if it bothers Dion right? after all, most likely this man ignored him. "read the case study."

" wow... S2??"

" MBA's." Rather than say wow for the title that Dion was after, Lea felt more WOW because Dion answered her that quickly. It's Kira Dion whose principled 'Cuek Price died.'

Dion and Lea were silent.no one came back to talk, Lea was also busy with the Oatmeal she had stocked in the refrigerator for her to eat. "your eyes are ugly."

Lea fell silent. The girl looked at Dion confusedly as to whether the man was talking about her. "it was not her eyes, it was her face."

" crying?"

Lea mengerutkan keningnya? memang ia menangis sehebat apa semalam sampai Dion bisa menyadarinya? engga menjawab dengan jelas, Lea memilih memasang senyum canggung.

" because of the woman yesterday?"

" no. um. because of me... bego?"

Dion took off the research paper he had been reading. Now he faces Lea and looks fixedly at the girl. "you know, Self-concept is good if the concept is good.Poor self-concept is actually dangerous, especially for mental health.

the self-concept of condescending and dropping down is not good for mental health. And I saw that from you, Lea. Low self-esteem is different."

just this time, Lea got a sentence as clear and sharp as that. As if the sharpness of his sentence made Lea aware of the habits he did form false hopes.

Leah used to humble herself, in the hope that if she was humble, then people would be comfortable with her. His sister would not feel awkward or guilty with him, and his friends would not leave him. Asa would also not leave her and remain by her side. Leah had often seen the fruit of pride, and thought that she would not want anything to happen to her.

" we are indeed social creatures, but we must also know that depending on the environment will not make us develop. Our development is based on our own concept, you know what I mean?" ask Dion. The man seemed frustrated to see Lea was just silent, looking gloomy as if he was blaming himself.

Dion agrees that Lea is guilty, but is guilty of the girl herself, not of her surroundings.

Dion was too anxious to see Lea just silently insulted yesterday, but seeing the girl panicked even though the commotion was over, Dion realized Lea had a 'problem'.

Lea scratched her neck awkwardly. "new.. ehmm. then realized when Kak Dion said the hell. maybe I nganggep habit, but it could have been a concept time yes. but lately I've rarely been. You see, my brother would be upset if I talked or thought it was like that."

" that was yesterday?"

" yes!! My sister picked it up yesterday. Hehehe... UM.. She cares and appreciates me, so I rarely think I'm ugly or useless, more often I cook, and my photos are good. heheheh.."

Dion breathed. Now he could sleep well because Lea had already said so.

usually the guy doesn't care about Lea Koprol in the corridor though. But seeing the girl only she received no good treatment like yesterday, Dion so did not have time to read his case study because of thinking about the 'problem' that is in Lea.

" try to change the concept.the way a lot on google, psychologists are also many, you can look for 'can you?"

Lea nodded in understanding. "ready, Commander!! hehehe.." Lea laughed a little. He was again surprised because Dion could be as careful and as good as this to the man who was new to the man.

Looks like Lea has to meet her psychologist again later.
