No Rose Without A Thorn's

No Rose Without A Thorn's
About Love Relationships



Keira woke up the next day. He really fell asleep in the lap of Evan who did not dare to lift Keira. Evan also fell asleep on the couch.


Keira looks at Evan's sleeping face, takes a cell phone and secretly takes a picture of Evan. Keira smiled happily.


"Sister, did you see Brother Keira?


The car's in the......"


Nada opened the door of Evan's room and was surprised to see Keira who could not get up when she heard Nada's voice.


"..pan my cafe."


Keira immediately rose from her sleep, the awakened Evan was unaware of Nada's presence. He looked at Keira and smiled.


"When did you wake up?" ask Evan.


Keira threw away her face.


"Sorry!" Nada immediately ran out leaving Keira and Evan who were misbehaving as if he was caught sinning.


"I'm sorry I overslept." Keira tidied up and walked out.


Outside he met Nada who was whispering to Dizzah.


"Sister, what's been there since last night?" ask Nada.


Keira didn't answer, she was looking for the car keys.


"Sister's leaving soon, bye!" Keira waved her hands at her two younger siblings.


***


Since Nada finds Keira in Evan's room in the morning, Keira tries to avoid meeting her siblings. He reasoned busy working, if forced to meet he would avoid the topic about Evan.


Keira also avoided Evan. He was a little scared of Evan. Fear of not being able to resist events beyond their control. He knew that even if he never said it, Evan must have wanted it so much because he was a normal grown man. Keira is also a normal woman. But Keira also has a logical normalcy, although she can prevent pregnancy - if she wants to - she remains afraid of release.


He always remembered that he was the son of his parents' carelessness. He did not lack anything, but he heard enough of the predicate 'unlawful child' to stop at him. He does not want to increase the number of children who have the same predicate in the eyes of others.


The reason is simple, but it would sound absurd to some people because that's why Keira never said it. He was afraid to offend Evan if honest, but he was also afraid to refuse when the incident happened again. Keira is confused because she also does not want Evan to think that he does not really want it because he really loves Evan.


"Why you?" Evan asked suspiciously. He saw Keira some time this looks moody. They are helping Dizza and Nada prepare for the opening of their cafe. Keira was suddenly agitated near Evan, and her stomach became uncomfortable.


"Why you?" Evan repeated his question while examining Keira's forehead.


"It's okay." Keira brushed off Evan's hand gently.


Nada had noticed Keira.


"Are you sick?" Evan asked again.


Keira shakes. He felt uncomfortable being around Evan.


"I'm sorry, I ...." Keira weighed her words.


"What's wrong?" Evan looks impatient.


"I just ...." Keira was looking for a reason to explain but she couldn't find it.


His stomach is getting worse and....


"Ueeeeeks!" Keira ran into the bathroom.


Nada and Evan looked at Keira in surprise. Evan immediately ran after, he knocked on the bathroom door.


"Kira ... Are you all right?" Evan looks worried because Keira's voice still shows he is vomiting.


"I'm doing fine. You can leave me."


Evan finally left, though still not calm. Nada watched them and sent a message to Dizza which was actually just a short distance away from her. Dizza received the message and frowned, seeing Keira coming out of the bathroom.


"Where's Evan?" Keira asked Nada who pointed towards the kitchen without speaking.


****


"Are you sick?" evan asked as Keira followed.


"Can we talk?" Keira asked back


"Speak, what's wrong?" ask Evan.


Keira looked around.


"We're talking outside." Keira decides to talk in the backyard of Nada's tiny house.


He didn't realize his two sisters were eavesdropping on their conversation.

Keira and Evan sat on the swing.


"If you're nauseous, sitting here can make you even more nauseous" Evan said, taking Keira away but Keira held Evan back, asking him to stay seated.


"I'll heal when I talk to you" Keira said slowly.


Evan looked at Keira seriously.


"Why do you look scary?"


Keira took a breath and threw it away.


"Look, I honestly want to ask you, do you think I'm weird?"


"Any?Weird how?" evan asked confusedly.


"About ...."


"Keira, why are you going around in circles? please ...."


"About our relationship in bed."


Keira said quickly. He threw away his face, honestly he was embarrassed.


"What's wrong?" Evan forced Keira to look him in the eye. Keira turned her head again, enduring the shame on her chest.


"Is this why you've been avoiding me for so long? You scared?" ask Evan.


"You know I'm avoiding you?"


"I don't even know you want to do it."


Keira was embarrassed but Evan immediately grabbed Keira by the hand.


"I don't think we should do it if you don't want to, I won't force it."


"I don't want to do it because I don't want you or don't love you." Keira said slowly.


"I just don't feel like doing it at the wrong time. Maybe you think this sounds ridiculous, but I have to say it. I'm trying my hardest to figure out a way for you to understand that I love you even though I can't show proof of that love right now."


Evan looked at Keira and laughed.


"Proof love?"


Evan then groped Keira's stomach.


"You've even proved it long before you confessed your feelings."


Keira glanced at her stomach, what Evan meant was the puncture wound.


"You sacrificed for me. Do I have to worry about bed relationship issues?"


"I just feel guilty for you." Keira acknowledged.


"I know you don't want to do it before we get married.


Keira looked again.


"You know but why pretend you don't know?" Keira asked annoyedly and laughed. He felt relieved.


"I just don't think you want to talk about it. I want you to know for me love relationships are not limited to bed, we will not just do it just wait after marriage. I appreciate your honesty."


Keira looked at Evan. "Thank you." He kissed Evan's lips quickly.


Evan laughed and stroked Keira's stomach while whispering in her ear, "I want you to know too, I love you as sincerely as I do, not just because I want to enjoy you dear."


Keira encourages Evan to feel embarrassed but the man hugs her tightly. Both of them still hugged me when.

Tone and Dizza instantly held the chest. They're stealing Keira and Evan's talk from upstairs, but they can't hear it, they just see Keira and Evan's movements.


They only pay attention to Evan and Keira who are initially seen talking seriously then Evan who holds Keira's stomach while laughing. They attributed Keira's sensitive attitude these few days, avoiding them and the vomiting Keira.


"Fix!" Tone and Dizzah looked at each other. The two of them ran downstairs as Keira shouted to call them.


They prepare to arrange the opening of the Cafe in the afternoon. Coordinate all employees. Dizza corrected the decor of the room, Adrian and Evan help the workers who set the table chairs, sound system and others.


Keira pacing back and forth called the organizers, mc, sponsors and other performers. Keira sat in a chair watching her sisters, laughing and feeling tired.


"Aren't you tired, brother?" Tone thrusting a glass of drink.


"Yes, a little."


"Rest inside." Tone pulls Keira's hand.


"Sister still wants to help."


"Sister, right, can call while lying in the room."


"Why should Big Brother lie down when the others are busy? Brother wants to see your busyness."


Keira walks towards Evan and Adrian, he sees both of them objecting to moving the big table.


"Looks like you guys need help." Keira helped immediately.


"Don't!" Evan and Adrian forbid.


Adrian because it's not nice to be helped by women, Evan because he's still worried about Keira's stomach.


"I'm strong too." Keira assured, he will help raise when Dizza pulls his hand.


"Don't do heavy work. Just help me put this up." Dizza asked Keira to sit down to see if he had put up the painting properly.


"It's fitting?" Dizzie asked.


"Less to the left a little. The right is less down .. ka.u too much shift ..." Keira stood up in annoyance.


"Dizza, move! Let Brother put up."


Keira asked Dizza to get out of the stairs.


"What do you want?"


"You see, Brother put up."


"NO!" Dizza insisted.


Keira looked at wonder.


"So, just sit there. Mom, oh yeah please call mom." Dizzah cast Keira out subtly.


*


The afternoon show went well. Guests enjoy the events and offerings. Keira was still pacing back and forth making sure nothing was missed.


"Sister, if you're tired, take a break." Tone warned Keira.


"Sister isn't tired yet. You're overreacting." Keira passes. He sat down near the kitchen to check the food. Keira stared at the fruits that looked tantalizing. He picked up some fruit and sat down near the chef who was arranging the fruits.


Keira talked to the chef while enjoying the fruit on her plate. He laughs occasionally. He didn't realize Dizza was watching him.


Why are you so happy, brother?
