The capture of Farhan brings its own relief to Alan. At least his anxiety was reduced, because it was made sure Farhan would no longer be able to harm Melisa. His late father also received justice. In addition, he also felt calm because the health condition of his sister was experiencing a lot of progress.
"Do you want a vacation?" Alan's embrace suddenly startled Melisa who was daydreaming on the balcony.
"So, I'm just surprised." Spontaneous pinching of the muscular arm belonging to his beloved brother.
"Where are you going for the new year holiday?"
"As for brother, I don't have any planning."
"Hey, what's going on? Usually you're most enthusiastic if you're not busy working. Now you take the time to be with you on your year-end vacation, but why not get excited like this?"
"Hmmm, for the sake of accompanying me or Brother Sofi? Brother is just looking for an excuse to get a vacation with Brother Sofi right?" Melisa managed to make her sister's face meet red because it hid her shame.
"You always know what my head is about." Alan scratched his scratching head that was not itching. She was astonished because Melisa could always guess what she was thinking. It is as close as they are, until it creates an inner bond that is so strong.
"You're right, but my main reason is to keep you happy. You've suffered a lot. I can't even remember the last time you laughed. All this time I just saw you smile. And you know very well, it's not a genuine smile of happiness. You smile to look good in front of everyone. You can't lie to your brother."
"Well then, how about we enjoy the turn of the year on the island of XX. Brother there's a villa, right?"
"Good idea, we can spend the night there while enjoying the beauty of the beach and the vast ocean."
"Take Sofia's parents too, sister. Consider it all PDKT same candidate-in-law."
"Later brother try to talk to them, hopefully they can come with us on vacation."
"What are you talking about?" Kevin who just finished bathing approached the two brothers who were seen talking about something seriously.
"We're talking about year-end vacation plans."
"really? What's your plan?"
"We're going to spend some time on XX Island and take Sofia and her family out."
"Well, looks like this is gonna be fun. I agree with your plans."
"Who asked for your consent?" Alan started flying the war flag. He hasn't argued with Kevin in a long time. For him, his life is not complete if it has not been stormy with him. But this is a form of affection for both. Sometimes, someone does show their concern in a different way. Like Alan and Kevin.
"I'm going to Sofia's house, but you have to come. Surely he won't come if I ask." Alan knew very well that Sofia would definitely reject his invitation.
"Okay, brother, I'll help persuade Brother Sofi." Melisa understood her brother's intentions. Because indeed all this time the relationship they live is a one-sided relationship. More precisely Sofia has not been able to give her heart to Alan. But she was sure, one day Sofia could accept Alan, because her brother really sincerely loved her.

"This is Sofia's house?" Melisa circulated her gaze to all corners of the house whose paint was worn out. Even some of the windows are not functioning properly because the frame is eaten by termites and given a buffer bar so as not to be filled. But the buffer cross actually makes the window can not be opened. It can be made sure the air circulation in this house is not so good.
"Yes, this is Sofia's house. Do you mind your brother loving someone with a life like this?"
"So you don't know me, do you? Then what kind of question is that? Do not look at people in material terms." Melisa was a little angry because of the question that Alan just asked.
"Yes yes." Alan replied with a gentle kiss on his sister's forehead.
Tok..
The knock on the door made Sofia frown. These nights who's visiting. How thought.
"Mother, I'm warming up vegetables for dinner. Please see who's coming. Sofia still swung the spatula cunningly.
"Hey, kid. Why are you screaming. Your mother's in the shower."
"I'm sorry I don't know, after all, I usually take a shower."
"Your mom just finished gardening behind the house. Chili prices are expensive. Your mother thought growing chili peppers in the back of the house would help us a little. Especially when things get expensive like this."
Tok..
The sound of knocking on the door was heard for the umpteenth time.
So cool they forget that someone knocked on the door.
"Geez dad, I forgot there were guests outside."
"Let me open the door. You just continue with the kitchen work. I'm so hungry."
It didn't take long to get to the door. Because the house they live in is not too broad.
Jegleggg.
"Who's looking, man?" Sofia's father looked at Alan closely. This man was no stranger to him.
"I'm sorry we had a good night, we wanted to see you. Meet Alan Yong Ju. And this is my sister, Melisa Yong Ju."
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you young master." Putting your head down as an honor.
"Don't call young master, just call him by name."
"All right, son Alan. Please come in, Sofia's inside. Wait a minute, let me call him."
Melisa and Alan walked into the living room. They sat in a long wooden chair. Next to it were dozens of neatly arranged trophies on an iron shelf. So many achievements he achieved. It proves that there is something special about Sofia. His intelligence is what can make him accepted to work in a large company like Yong Ju Group.
Sofia emerges from behind the curtain that forms the dividing line between the kitchen and the living room. He took a plastic chair and brought it to the living room, because the seats in the living room were only limited.
"Hi Melisa, how are you?" Kiss each other's right and left cheeks respectively.
"Okay, did our arrival bother you?"
"Oh, no, no. What's there to bother with coming here?"
"I want my brother to accompany me on vacation, Alan and Kevin's brother to come too. I hope you don't reject it, or I'll be sad." If this is the case, of course Sofia did not have the heart to refuse Melisa's request.
"Well, not that I don't want to, but.." Sofia glanced at her father and mother who were peeking out from behind the curtain.
"Your parents wouldn't mind, would they, father, mother?" Alan asks Sofia's father and mother to join the living room.
"Of course we don't mind."
"Dad, mother, I also want to take you on vacation with us. I hope you don't reject it."
"Of course we will come, Sofia would be happy because we have not been on vacation for a long time. It's Sofia, baby." Sofia's mother glanced sharply at her son followed by a forced smile. A gesture for Sofia to agree to Alan's invitation.
Seriate...
