Orion
Aunt Lintang brought her husband and daughter home. It left me sitting drowning next to my parents.
"Rion..." Mama stroked my shoulder.
I looked at Mami, "Miiii... Rion is serious Mi."
"Mommy has to trust Rion."
Mami nodded. "You drink first, yeah."
I drank a cold drink straight from the bottle.
"Rion." The heavy papi sound.
"Yes Pi." I looked at the man who had been my protector all this time.
"But disappointed." I looked down to hear his words. Sure, everybody's disappointed. My parents, my parents or even my friends.
"But papi is happy." Three words that made me dare to look at papi.
Papi laughed cynically, "It used to be when you were still in the womb. Papi and om Josep are scrambling to match you and Ethan with one of Akhtar's children."
Whahuh? Why did I never know this story?
"At that time Ethan, you, Nath and Nair and Delvin were still fetuses. You're still in the womb."
"Papi wants to match the fetus in the womb of mami with the fetus in the womb of aunty Lintang."
Mom laughed, they both laughed. Back to the past.
"But unfortunately all are boys."
Dih, I was almost betrothed to Nair and Nath! Amit-amit. Thankfully I'm a guy.
"Until papi intends to match you with Star or Zoya."
I stared at Papi in disbelief. Match pi. Now either. I ready.
"Ethan dies automatically out of conviction."
Evidently.
"And om Akhtar scoffed at papi for not being as effective as papi."
Anyone rethink to have besan kayak papi.
Papi laughs. "And now he has karma. He used to refuse but now you're in touch."
"How long have you been dating?" Ask papi excitedly.
They both looked at me and waited for my answer.
"We're not dating, pi!"
"Whataaa!!!" Both surprised.
I got aghast. Dong dong was surprised. Never heard the term TTM (friend but friendly) or friend taste what girlfriend?
"So what's your relationship, Rion!!!" Snatch my mom at me.
"Wife candidate with husband, Mi." Reply lightly.
"So you don't have that dating status yet?" ask mami.
I'm shaking. Both my parents were rubbing their eyebrows.
"Have you expressed love, Rion?" ask papi.
I nodded like an idiot.
"What star answers?"
I kept quiet for a while while remembering what he said Brother Bi. In the kitchen, Bi didn't answer anything.
In the car, yes in the car. Brother Bi said...
"Sir Bi said we were different. It means different ages, Pi."
"Bi's sister also said that I was wrong to love her."
"But I confessed before Akhtar pi."
"Until Akhtar finally gave me those three conditions."
"Basic rancid!" Papi said to me.
"Raaay... Speak politely a little." Mom's talk.
"Your path is already open Rion. But your lips are asked to be sewn."
"You're closing your own path!" Papi looked frustrated.
I scratched my nape. Yeah how else. It's hard to control yourself, Pi.
"So, Rion has to how pi." I asked resigned.
Papi shrugged his shoulders. "Udah ribet gini nanya papi. Nyosor remember papi no, you?"
"Oh yeah, no." Reply lightly.
"Remember papi just makes my mood upset!" muttered.
The cushioned sofa cushion landed perfectly on my face. "Eat the pillow."
"Oh, yourself."
"Not sent to hell as Akhtar, thank you very much."
Papi stood up and took my mother away. "Let's go baby, we'll make another kid. Have a bod*hnya child like this, just doodle from the family card."
"It's still afternoon, Pi." My insinuation.
"Super stupid! This is halal." Parents have no morals.
"Rion how, Pi." My screams.
"Think of yourself." The sound of the papi disappeared as they moved away.
I lay limp on the couch. But my mind is wandering. Think about what happened to the stars.
I know it's my fault. I was too quick to admit my feelings. It took me a while to prove my feelings.
If only I had come when I was successful and my age was mature enough. It will be easy for them to accept me.
But I'm not sure Star Brother is still single.
"Huuuuaaaaaaaaaaa." I'm messing up my hair.
"Abang! Don't kayak tarzan dong!" Jerit Chiara from the second floor.
"Biariiii. Broken hearted brother Chiaaaaa." My screams are getting louder.
"Sister Bi doesn't like whiny people!" And Chia immediately disappeared behind the door of her room.
Chia's right, Brother Bi doesn't like whiny people. "Sister! We have to be together!" I'm determined.
****
Star
I drove my car with mixed feelings. Along the way I just cried.
I'm a fool, not against Rion when he's willing to do that. But I also don't know why I couldn't move even a little at that time.
When the painting has just begun. Cellphone's ringing. And I saw Chiara's name on the screen.
I answered the phone from him. The first thing I heard was the sobs of the 13-year-old girl.
"Hallo Chia."
"Hallo brother... Please bang Rion brother!"
"Rion why, honey?"
"Bang Rion wants to be beaten by Akhtar. Brother, come here quickly."
Papa's? What's papa doing? Not because of problems at school.
"So straight there, baby."
I left this place and while still in the parking lot, my mother also called asking me to come to Ray's house immediately.
I got there, and everything was beyond my expectations.
I'm a little disappointed in Papa making his own decision. But I know it's for my own good. Maybe he saw Rion's sincerity until he wanted Rion to prove it.
And I'm angry at myself. I was stupid and disappointed my mother. Angry mom. Am I called a child of disobedience?
Mama said, I didn't listen to her advice at dawn. I acted as if against him. Ignoring his advice.
Upon arriving home, I immediately chased after the mother who was walking towards her room.
"Yesaa...."
"Bi'm sorry, ma. I won't repeat."
I hugged my mom from behind. Passing Zoya who is watching tv.
"What's up, Ma?" ask Zoya curiously.
Mom looked at Zoya. "Mama was also disappointed with Zoy. What were you wearing last week?. Mama never allowed Zoya to wear clothes too minimal. But Zoya's still breaking." Zoya also has a mother tantrum.
"Yes." Zoya seems to realize her mistake.
"Depart, Bi!" I'm unmoving.
"Y...!" I looked at the nodding papa.
I let go of my embrace.
"Mom disappointed in you guys." Mom left us. Papa followed behind mom.
"What's really going on, Bi?" Zoya walked up to me and led me to sit on the sofa.
I told you everything. Zoya shut her mouth in disbelief.
"Riionn!! Rotten lizard." Furious Zoya.
"What matters now is mama Zoy." I cried and Zoya hugged me tightly.
"We talked to mom, yeah. I'd like to apologize to Mom, too."
"Let's nenangin yourself first, Bi." Zoya led me to my room.
"You rest first. I want to sleep here." His words immediately spread themselves on the bed.
