The Curse of Two Languages

Chapter 44: Being chased by a mad dog

Clara yawned while stretching her stiff muscles after a good night's sleep. The girl smiled brightly when she saw the sunlight that pierced through the curtains of her room window that was still tightly closed.

Today is Sunday. The day Clara used to relax. The day Clara could sleep all day. The day Clara used to go out with her friends. And the day Clara was free from everything that smelled of college.

Clara tied up her original hair and tidied up her bed. He got up to pick up training pants neatly stored in the closet. He used to do jonging on Sundays.

Clara came downstairs to prepare breakfast. This morning he decided to make a sandwich so that it would not take much time.

"Aren't you going to jonging?" Raymond asked as he ate the piece of apple that Clara had placed on the table.

"Yes dong. Be healthy!" Clara answered while putting a sandwich on the dinner table. One by one the inhabitants of this house appeared in the dining room, ruffled. Diamond and Nicolas. Both of Clara's uncles were neat with their respective suits. Maybe there's some work.

Ckckck, get them both. Not like Paula who still lives with her nightgown and disheveled hair.

PLAK. Can't talk to anyone else ... Sins.

Clara ate the sandwiches while staring at the residents of her house one by one. His eyes were fixed on Bryan and Guy who were neat with sports clothes and training pants.

"Where are you two going?" Asked Clara while raising her eyebrows.

"They both want to accompany you to your morning run."  Neither Guy nor Nicolas answered. But Nicolas. Clara looked at her Angky with an astonished look.

"meaning?"

"So gini. From now on they will both be bodyguards who will accompany and watch over you in our place. Wellh itung-itung as a house rental." Clear Diamond.

Clara nodded as she ate her sandwich back. Tumben he's not fighting as usual?

Hadehh, fight wrong, do not fight wrong. Kill me, Thor! - Clara.

After feeling enough, Clara got up from her seat and said goodbye to start running in the morning.

"Sir, Adek's coming with dong!" Pinta Raymond while drinking milk until run aground. Forgetting. Clara's sister this one is also ready with her sports clothes.

"May, that means Paula's guarding the house, huh?!"

Clara, Raymond, Guy, and Bryan started running from the yard. Sometimes they greet neighbors who also run or bike in the morning.

They sat in the garden after feeling somewhat exhausted. Clara, our main character, flapped her hands on her face after they went around the complex.

"Gilaa, so tired. It's not usually like this!" Clara Mumbled. Raymond wiped the sweat on Clara's forehead with a handkerchief. "Tumben you're paying attention to brother? Usually always be attentive."

"Everal times too. Yes brother, his sister's attention is even questioned."

"It's not the deck, just the sister is suspicious of you. If you're good this is because you want to, right?" Clara asked as she looked at her sister with a probing look. It was so strange that Raymond suddenly felt this way.

"Didih, if you don't want his sister's attention already."  Raymond replied as he turned his face the other way. Snuggle. She wanted to ask one thing from her brother.

In the depths of his heart, Raymond wanted to ask Clara to always be by his side and would never leave him at any time. Let death separate them. The others, don't. But he was ashamed to say it. So he just put on a sullen face indicating that he was upset.

Clara who saw her sister in crab mode laughed amusedly. Brother has no morals indeed. But make no mistake, the girl immediately hugged her sister and kissed her forehead long ago.

"Yes yes. I'm so glad you noticed like this. That's a sign you love your sister too." He said with a sweet smile.

Clara was stunned for a moment to hear her sister's words. He smiled and rubbed Raymond's hair lovingly. "Yes, you don't want to be separated from me either."

Not far from where the four of them were sitting, a dog was taking a leisurely walk in the park. I don't know what Bryan was thinking, the bule guy even mimicked the sound of a dog.

As a result, the dog that turned out to be crazy ran towards them. Seeing the fierce dog, Clara and the others immediately ran away.

Right the saying. As fast as any fastest runner in the world is faster to run people who are being chased by dogs. Especially the crazy dogs.

After it was felt safe Clara and others immediately sat on the side of the road with bad breath.

"Crazy, my breath feels like it's breaking!" Raymond complained while holding his knee. He sat next to Clara who was also bored.

Clara glanced at Bryan with her sadism. "Lo know no, try if Lo does not run into the dog, surely we are not chased like this!"

"I'm sorry friends. I didn't think that dogs in Indonesia could do that." Said Bryan in a regretful tone. He did not expect that his actions could be exhausting like this.

"But on the other hand, the dog can make us the fastest runners in the world, you know!" Guy said with a amused smile.

"Damn Lo. But really, too." Clara.

Guy glanced at Clara who was looking straight ahead. How surprised he was when he realized that Clara was no longer using hands-free language translators. "Do you know English, CLA?" Ask.

Raymond, who heard the question, looked at his brother. Justright. Her brother no longer uses the tools that Angelo used to give him. He became tense for a moment. The shadow of events ten years ago flashed across his head.

Understanding Clara in English is the beginning of the revelation of Clara's past.

"Yes." Yeah." Clara answered briefly. Dense. And vividly.

"Since when?" Ask Raymond.

"Eitherway. Maybe since you woke up from a coma."

Is it possible that the coma would do wonders for Clara? Or maybe the beginning of the spread of old wounds?

Raymond got up from his seat. "We're going home now yuk? It's hot!" Invite later.

Clara nodded. "But before that we stopped by the mall first yuk? Someone wants you to buy it!" Clara said as she stood up from her seat. Followed by Bryan and Guy.

"Who would you like to buy?" Raymond asked in wonder.

"Es cream!" Clara answered while grinning without sin.

"When you buy ice cream, you can go to the supermarket." Sahut Guy while stretching his muscles.

If Raymond was shocked because his brother already understands English, now it's Bryan's turn to be surprised when he finds out that Guy is fluent in Indonesian.

"Since when can you speak Indonesian?" Ask wonder.

"I have no idea. Maybe because I have lived in a family that communicates in Indonesian.After all, I'm also native to Indonesia. But big in America!" Answer Guy.

The four of them finally went to the supermarket to buy ice cream that Clara wanted to buy.
