The Affair With My Step Brother

Chapter 37's

I didn't know Dr. Rizal was serious about what he said or if he just wanted to tease me. Clearly, he managed to make my face turn red withstanding embarrassment.

But if I think ... is it really like that? Doesn't such a story only exist in the land of fairy tales, does not apply in the real world. But if I tried, would Rey really wake up?

Because now Rey and I are alone, so I am free to invite her to chat. Mother and aunt Rena are out to buy food. Oh yes, Rey's nursery here is very complete, equipped with a kitchen. We usually cook or warm our food. As long as it is not a dish that smells pungent it does not matter if we cook it here.

"Mm .. If you were a sleeping prince and I was his daughter's master, would you wake up if I kissed him?" ask Rey, and of course my question won't get any answers.

I looked towards the door. There's nobody there.

"If I kissed you now, would you wake up? Watch out if you don't wake up, because I'll .. I'll ...." I chuckled because I didn't know what to say.

I turned back to look at the door, hopefully no one would peek. I feel like someone who wants to commit a crime and just look for the right opportunity to launch my actions.

"Don't look, I'm embarrassed if you're nervous" I said, then chuckled.

I don't know why I've been acting wrong. In fact, the person I wanted to kiss right now was lying weakly unconscious.

Because I thought it was safe, so I ventured to carry out my mission, which was to wake the prince from his long slumber.

Slowly I began to close my eyes as my face approached Rey's.

Cup.

Between belief and disbelief, I actually stole a kiss from a man who was lying weak and unconscious. For about 5 seconds, our lips stuck to each other.

I don't know why this kiss even reminds me of my first kiss with Rey's sister in the car at that time. Feels same. Maybe because I did the same thing. The difference this time, I started first. In the car at the time, Rey's brother kissed me all of a sudden.

After returning to my sitting position, I again noticed Rey's condition. There was no sign of him waking up.

"You cheated huh. You're not moving anyway? I've kissed it." I asked Rey again.

"Or do you want me to try again? Huh yeah?" Without ba bi bu, I went back to repeating the same thing as before.

Cup.

After doing the same thing for the second time, I sat back down and watched Rey's brother closely. After I waited for 2 minutes, there was no sign he would wake up. There was absolutely no reaction.

...****************...

2 Weeks later.

"I'll only wake up if you promise me wholeheartedly that you will marry me, live your days with me, and age with me" Rey said.

My eyes immediately opened. I took a deep breath, then threw it away slowly.

Huft. The dream again. The same dream I have dreamed 3 times during these two weeks. It started when I kissed Rey's sister. Rey came to give me a clue in a dream, but I'd rather ignore it. Wh why? Besides because the truth is still uncertain, also because I think of Darren's feelings.

The dream is just a sleeping flower. Maybe I had a dream like that because I was thinking too much about how I could get Rey's sister to wake up from her long sleep.

I got up and sat down from where I was lying, and looked around. Everyone was fast asleep, except for me who woke up in the middle of the night.

I checked the clock on my phone, the new time was 01:10 in the morning. If I dream like that, I can no longer fall asleep. My mind must be flying everywhere.

I thought about many things, starting from the condition of Rey who did not come to consciousness after 2 months more unconscious. Mas Darren's attitude that seems to be changing for longer because I feel often ignored and think that I pay more attention to Rey than him. Also, the feelings of aunt Rena and om Reza who are very sad often see the condition of their only son. To the extent that the condition of the two of them had dropped alternately.

Seeing that, I blamed myself even more. It was as if my feelings of sinfulness towards the four people earlier were accumulating more and more day by day.

I glanced to the left and to the right, there was a mother and aunt Rena who were sleeping and flanking my bedside position earlier. Yeah, the three of us slept on the same floor mattress. Om Reza is at his house. He was guarded by Laras and Andra's brother because he just got out of the hospital 2 days ago.

I looked at the face of Aunt Rena who was currently sleeping. His eyes look so puffy. I'm sure, before he fell asleep, he must have taken the time to cry over his son's condition. Crying silently at midnight when everyone is already sound asleep seems to have become a routine for the last 2 months.

I got up and walked around to Rey's sister, afraid that Rena's mother and aunt would wake up. I sat down next to Rey. Staring at his handsome face that looked thinner made my heart even more sliced.

If Rey's message in the dream is true, it looks like I have to be willing to sacrifice my happiness with Darren. And that means, I'm back to hurting the man I love and love me. Just like I did to Rey's sister 2 months ago before she crashed.

I wanted to grab my own hair, slap myself, and curse myself. I feel like I am the most sinful and disgusting person on earth. Just because of my selfishness and na***, I make a lot of people sad and hurt.

If only from the beginning I had a fixed and loyal stance towards my partner, namely Rey. There will be no complicated problems like this.

I clasped Rey's hand while daydreaming and fondled many things. If I choose Rey, Darren will be hurt. But if I choose Darren mas, it's not just Rey's sister who is the victim. Not only Rey's sister I hurt, but also her parents, as well as those closest to her such as Laras, Andra's sister, and many others.

I no longer want to make the wrong decision. If I try to think back, the people around me have suffered too long and hurt because of me. I need to end this as soon as possible. So I better make a decision now, before something unwanted happens and make me even more sorry.
