"Yes, we're El's family." The woman next to Luna managed to make her eyes turn wide.
Family mind reader?! How does he know my guess?
"How does he know?" The woman voiced Luna's thoughts.
Luna was flabbergasted, holding her breath. The woman next to him said the same thing in his mind.
"Haha... She's so funny, El!" Unable to bear it, the woman pinched Luna's cheek.
"Sister!"
"Ups... Sorry..." He raised his hand into the air.
"El?" Papi El opened his voice, looking at Luna.
"Aah!" El understood the meaning of papi's gaze. "Luna, it's papi. That's An's brother. The one next to you Brother En." El introduces his family one by one.
El then turns to Luna, moving her head slightly, giving the code that Luna does not understand.
"Know your name." El finally spoke directly without any more cues.
Luna looked panicked, she did not expect to be told to get acquainted. El didn't say anything!
Luna looked at them one by one, and they looked back at Luna. He feels nervous. "Sa-sa-sa..." El clasped Luna's cold sweaty hands under the table. Tried to calm him.
Luna bit her lips and then took a deep breath. "My name is Princess Luna. I am 18 years old. My Class 12 IPA 1."
"Mahaha..." This time it was An who laughed with satisfaction.
Luna looked at El confused, guessing what was wrong.
Brother En closed his mouth holding back laughter, even papi smiled.
"Why brother?" Luna asked slowly to El, asking for an explanation.
"Ga papa's..." El stroked Luna's head.
Their chat should stop when the MC opens the event. Without Luna realizing that the room that had been quiet was now crowded, there were even reporters already crowding near the stage.
"Luna wait here for a second, yeah."
Before long papi El advanced to the stage followed by all their family members. Luna could see Reina's older sister, Reza standing in front of the stage, keeping the reporters at a safe distance with a few other people, who seemed to be the organizers of the event.
The El family looked dazzling with Blitz lights hitting their faces. The moment that a question came to Luna's mind, was she worthy of being with them?
Look at that crowd, swarming them like a bunch of ants finding sugar. Then a boisterous voice echoed for them, faithfully cheering for whatever they were doing. The atmosphere now clearly proves that the life of Brother El is far above Luna. Hardly reached.
"What time is it?" Luna remembered again when she came home. Maybe El was right, one thing he never forgot was the clock home. It's like it's ingrained in Luna.
Looking around, Luna could not find the clock attached. Luna did not have a cell phone, and her watch was stored in El's car along with the clothes she was wearing.
"Do you have to ask someone else?" The distance between the tables was quite far, so Luna had to stand up and move away from the table if she wanted to ask someone. But El told him not to go anywhere.
Amidst his confusion, whether he should stand up or not, Reza came over. "Why Lun?"
Luna had not noticed since when Reza had come. "Why is my brother here? Wasn't that there?" Luna pointed towards the stage in front of them.
"So Mr. El told me to look out for Elo. Don't get up from a chair, let alone get lost."
Luna's forehead is wrinkled, how can it be lost, here there is even only one room.
"Don't try to get up anyway. Just sit there quietly." Reza stood beside Luna, waiting for her.
Giving up, Luna finally decided to see El alone. Reza smiled with satisfaction.
"Hatchi!" Luna covered her mouth and nose as she sneezed a second time. "Sister, have tissue?" She asked Reza because she felt the liquid from inside her nose would flow in a moment.
"Attent." Reza raised his hand to call out to the waiter who was standing along the side of the room. A male servant approached him immediately.
"Tissuet tissue."
"Yes, sir." The waiter nodded in understanding and immediately left.
Luna still covered half of her face with her hands because she kept sneezing and her kisses had not come either.
"Cold huh?" Luna felt something placed on her shoulders. Luna looked back and saw El who was smiling.
Luna nodded slowly. El snaps his coat on Luna's body.
"I'm cold too..." Brother En teases El. He was now sitting next to Luna. "Pinjem suit brother dong..."
An stared flatly, expressionlessly. "If you can be as cute as him, then brother love."
Mami and Papi who just came immediately smiled at the behavior of their children.
She shrieked her voice, making it as blank as possible. He held both of his cheeks, trying to give a funny pose. "Kakak~ Pinjemin... I'm cold..."
"Haha.." Luna release. He didn't realize he was laughing. It was because En's voice, very funny, resembled the voice of an angry cat.
Everyone at the table looked at him. Luna immediately looked down embarrassedly, "sorry big brother..."
"Haha.." An's laughter came up later. "Already, En. You're better suited to a fierce face."
"I can be cute, brother. Look at ya." En smiled timidly, then looked at everything on the table one by one. "Yes right? I'm more cute than Luna, right? Who's more cute?" En pulled Luna closer until their faces stuck.
Luna smiled awkwardly because suddenly the distance between En and herself was so close.
"Of course Luna!" El pushed his brother away. He took the tissue that Reza gave him standing next to him and wiped Luna's nose.
En blinked in disbelief. "God! Brother An, look! Lookie! Look what he just did! He wiped Luna's nose!"
En pulled Luna's face with one of his hands and turned her right and left, trying to check. "What are you wearing until El does something for you?"
"....." Luna did not understand En's question.
"Not stop tugging at Luna." El brushed En's hand off Luna's face.
He closed his mouth, "Sister An, remember that time, we were still in school. El cried just because no one wanted to get him water. He was too lazy to take his own water. The water is on the table next to it. It just happened yesterday!"
Mami and Papi laugh with An and En. El closed Luna's ears, lest she hear. But Luna laughed.
It turns out that El's family is harmonious. Not like the shadow of a rich family that's in the drama. Luna could laugh happily with them. It feels so heart warming.
Afterwards, they were busy talking out the ordinary little El who was very lazy. Makes Luna laugh. They can only stop when dinner is served by the waiter.
Luna watched El before she started eating, she did not want to make a mistake and humiliate herself.
The dinner begins with an appetizer. Luna has no problem with that. Then came the main dish and other food that followed. Luna felt as long as she imitated the way El ate everything would be fine. Until a few minutes after the last dish was served Luna felt something strange on her.
Luna looked at El while holding her chest. "Sister El, tight..." Luna lowered her head in pain, she brought herself closer to El. Now all parts of his body are facing El. "Sobsmack..." Luna said softly once more. He clutched his chest getting stronger.
El looked at Luna in panic. "Luna?" El called for Luna. Luna's head was now resting on El's chest. El lifted Luna's face, seeing her in pain. "Luna why are you?"
"I'm calling an ambulance now." He immediately took his phone. "You bring him down, El."
Luna's consciousness was disappearing for longer. He's been drowning in El's arms.
Seriate...
