The Affair With My Step Brother

Chapter 33

"You heard, didn't my mom just say what? He constantly mistakes me and constantly praises you. I think you really managed to take his heart. Don't you want to get up and say something to Mom?" I asked Rey to speak in a half-whispering tone near her ear. Afraid that others will hear it.

"Aren't you going to wake up trying out the cake recipe that your mom taught me? He said you like to eat that cake. If you wake up, I promise you that cake will be made for you every day. If I need that cake, I'll put it in the store closet. You want to, right? If you want, then you wake up. Don't sleep mute. Your body does not pegel what beds continue every day never wake up," I said again while massaging Rey's arms slowly.

A moment later my right hand began to move to touch her pale-looking cheek. The more his body also looks thinner, unlike Rey I used to know. I felt so sorry and guilty seeing it.

"Look, your cheeks are so thin. Your body is also getting thinner and thinner," I said as I stroked her cheek using my thumb.

"If you wake up, I promise to take care of you until you are completely healed and healthy as before. You want to be treated like me? If you want, then wake up dong ...."

I'm still trying to persuade Rey to get up. Doctor Rizal said, his condition has long been stable, but there is something that makes Rey still reluctant to wake up. I don't know what it is? Either I had to persuade him in any other way so that he would wake up and end his long sleep that had lasted for almost 6 weeks.

Ting. A message suddenly came in on my phone. After I opened it, it turned out to be a message from Darren. He invited me to meet outside, there was something very important that he wanted to talk to me about.

"I'm out for a minute, you're okay, won't I stay a minute?" I said goodbye to Rey. It was rare for me to go out and leave her as long as I decided to wait for her at the hospital.

After saying goodbye to Rey, I then say goodbye to aunt Rena, om Reza, mother, and also Gilang's father. I told the four of them that I wanted to go out for a walk, and they didn't forbid it either, except for the mother who slightly disagreed I went out leaving Rey's sister.

"It's okay, Miss Lani. Let Keisha out. He's been here for 1 month and has been with Rey. He must be very bored." Aunt Rena defended me again.

He knew exactly how I had been looking after and accompanying his son. He even often told me to refresh but I refused. And now, I'm the one who asked for permission to leave, Aunt Rena can't possibly forbid.

"Tap-" Just now mom wants to protest with aunt Rena's greeting, but is instantly cut by aunt Rena herself.

"It's okay, Miss Lani. Let Keisha come out refreshing his eyes, body, and mind. Too long here isn't he in jail?" said aunt Rena.

"As long as Keisha was here, she rarely went out. Never once did he go for a walk. Even if Keisha came out, she just came down to sunbathe in the hospital garden. If you leave for 20 minutes at most. It's also not every day he comes out" added aunt Rena back explained to mother.

Duh, this aunt Rena. Really camer (prospective in-laws) dream. If I were to marry his son, I would definitely be the happiest son-in-law in the world.

Uh, what did I just say? I pulled it again so Darren wouldn't get angry.

Before I came out, Aunt Rena gave me a golden yellow debit card.

"What is this, Auntie?" I asked aunt Rena.

"It's Rey's, you just use it to pay for all your needs. Don't worry." Aunt Rena said with a smile and held the gold card in my hand.

Even though I know Rey and her family are from the top, I still feel unworthy of it. Rey and I have no relationship anymore. I stayed by his side because I only wanted to atone for my sins against him. Not as a woman waiting for a boyfriend or her husband to get well, so I don't think I have the right.

"Sorry Auntie, Kei can't take it," I said as I returned the card to Aunt Rena.

"Not to refuse. Just wear it, it's for you. You keep it well, yeah." Aunt Rena said while smiling at me.

"But Aunt-"

Hearing aunt Rena's threat, I can't do anything about it. I don't want to be forced to take the card. It doesn't matter if I just take it and keep it but don't wear it at all. The important thing is that Aunt Rena is not angry. Thought.

.

.

I continued walking down the corridor after corridor towards the exit of the hospital. In front of the lobby there Darren's car was waiting for me.

"Where are we going, Mom?" I asked as soon as I got into Darren's car.

"Restaurant" he answered briefly, then started driving.

On the way to Darren's restaurant, my beloved stepbrother was silent, there was no chat between the two of us. Ever since I noticed Darren's face, his face looks flat, not as usual.

"Mas Darren why? Is there a problem?" I said I ventured to ask.

"mm? What did you just say, honey?" Darren asked me back. He seemed to be daydreaming, so he didn't hear me ask what.

"Kei said, Why? How did you keep quiet from that? Is there a problem?" I repeated my question in more detail than before.

"Don't you, Mas sad because today Mas Darren is officially divorced with Mbak Feli?" I tried to tease Darren.

"Just boy. You if you talk do not carelessly," said mas Darren did not accept. His face looked increasingly irritated.

Seeing that, I immediately apologized. I think I've been talking wrong. He was joking now, but it didn't seem like the right time.

The atmosphere became quiet again. Seeing that Darren was in no mood to joke, I didn't dare to open my voice anymore. Afraid of him getting really angry later.

Looks like there's a problem being covered up by Darren from me. Butwhat? I became curious, because until this moment mas Darren is still reluctant to open his voice.
