PARLORS DIE
THE BROTHERS KNEW IT
"Plan's blocking aunt?" asked the man staring at us sharply.
"What do you mean?" ask again.
"Last few days there's been something strange about you guys" he continued.
I should've been relieved that he was just my brother, kevin. But—
How do you answer that question!?
I looked at Reza with uneasiness and confusion. I did have to tell the sisters about the orphanage, but if it was suddenly like this, of course I would be confused.
Reza looked at me. His gaze was like wanting not to curb with lies. He wants to be honest with our current situation.
"The right time... We're going to tell you something about behind this parlor" Reza looked at Kevin in melancholy.
"I've guessed, something is strange" he murmured.
He's facing up, "Hee... You guys want to get out the attic? The roof seems difficult to dismantle... The only thing one could do was to remodel it by kicking it to shreds..."
You realize that? Uh.. Since when!? Aren't you too observant for a kid your age?
Reza was a little surprised by Kevin's words, just like me.
"You are a genius sister" Reza smiled.
"Well... That's it," Kevin said.
"So what do you want to tell me about this home?" tanyanya looked at us both in turn.
Reza gave me a glimpse, I nodded my chin forward to signal 'tell him'
He nodded back and looked at Kevin.
"Actually this parlor..."
~|~|~
"It's so bad," he muttered looking down, after Reza explained the truth of the parlour..
Hey, your reaction is normal.
"Yes that's right" Reza said.
"I guess we're just sold for work... But...It's... I didn't expect this to happen." I was nervous.
But his nervousness was like a made-up.
"Yes, that's why we planned to run away at that time" Reza said spontaneously.
I was a little surprised by Reza's words, because it could have offended something.
"That time." - Kevin and began to look at Reza, "That time you left us... Your own sisters." he said a little annoyed.
I guess Kevin realized it.
"Eh... I'm sorry, that's my plan." Reza panicked.
"You guys knew about this parlour earlier than you did, you didn't tell us and you wanted to just leave us?" said harden.
Reza was confused. Then he calmed himself down by sighing softly.
Only silence appeared. Reza just drifted in his apology. Kevin looked at her flatly.
"Hey, have you heard? Reza's sister apologized."
Huh huh?
Reza and I looked at Kevin in astonishment. Kevin glanced towards the door. Then Reza and I reflexively looked towards the door.
Who is he talking to?
After that, I heard a sound of movement or something from behind the door. The door was already half open from the start Kevin came in.
As I stared more closely at the door, I was astonished. From behind the door came Sindi and the sisters.
"Sister... Sindi... Why can?" said Reza.
"...They actually already know something's wrong with us. Nia and Deva questioned this parlour to me last night in the room, I was confused... At first they both cried." said Sindi smiling gently.
Reza and I remained silent.
"...After that they both told Kevin and Willy... I met the four of them at the door, Kevin was planning something... And this is the plan." he continued.
"Wait a minute, don't you feel scared?" ask the astonished sisters.
"We were actually afraid of Yan's brother, but Kevin and Sindi said don't be afraid." said Willy smiling.
"...We can cry or complain" said Nia.
"But we can't give up" Deva continued
*What the fuck this is, really...
They are afraid, but they hide that fear. You are great brothers*.
"You guys are great" said Reza slowly.
"That's right," kept me.
"Just realising? How was my surprise with Sindi's sister?" kevin smiled proudly.
Sindi laughed a little. Reza and I stared at each other, and we both briefly raised the corner of each other's lips.
"Hey isn't you." said Reza.
"Too arrogant." I said.
"When.." continued Reza.
"It's not too surprising!" I cried with Reza simultaneously.
I laughed, one by one they laughed. Fear and worry are lost in our laughter. And from that, we should...
"Sstt, don't laugh too hard." said Reza.
They kept their laughter. I smile at them now.
Even though we are not siblings, I feel something more than that.
"Let's plan a midnight escape tonight."
