When Love Is Present

Chapters 127. Edo needs attention.

Aunt Morina asked Laras to come to her house when Laras decided to come.

With curiosity Laras also slid into Edo's house. A question mark that needs answers rests on Laras' head. Not only that, the cries of Aunt Morina encouraged Laras steps to meet the request of Aunt Morina. Laras feels pity. I don't know where Edo is now so aunt Morina asks Laras to come. Why not just find Edo to help him?

"Auntie is asking for help. Come quickly, baby. Yes Laras. Come quickly huh? Hiiiiks..."

So the last part of Aunt Morina's speech?

The barrel soon changed clothes and slid into Morina's house. Morina was the mother of Edo.

"Clearned! The barrel! Hiiiiks...."

"Auntie why??"

Laras welcomes Aunt Morina's embrace.

"Today, Edo locked himself in his room. Aunt worried. He won't open the door."

"Two days? Why Edo's sister, Auntie?"

"Do not know Laras.hiiiiks. Aunt confused.Oom again in Japan dear."

They stood at the door of Edo's room. Poor aunt Morina who was very curious about the state of her son in the room.

Geck. Geck. Geck.

"Sir Edo! Brother, open the door" call Laras but there is no answer.

Baras repeated Edo's name three times. Edo chose to remain silent.

That call meant nothing to him.

"Sister, this door will break if you don't want to go out!" Threaten Baras.

Justright. Laras turned to aunt Morina and the woman nodded her head.

"Why not break down from yesterday, Auntie? Why is Edo silent? Sis!!!" The call of Laras is even stronger.

"Tante called Mang Kum to push this door. Wait a minute." Aunt Morina down.

Chequek.

"Sir Edo..What's up?" A deathly pale face was standing in front of Laras as the door opened. The eyes were empty and I was without spirit. His body was weak helplessly.

The tall body leaned against the wall next to the door and then sat limply there. The barrel shouted, "Sir Edo?!"

Edo was silent. Looking at Laras face, smiling faintly for then his face turned cold.

Disappointment there.

"Sister..sister why?? Anwser me. Why is it like this?" The barrel crouched in front of Edo. His hands touched Edo's hands above his knees. Quickly Edo brushed off Laras' hand.

Morina who came with Mang Kum looked relieved that Laras had spoken to Edo. Edo is not okay. Morina told Mang Kum to come down again and he stood behind the walls of Edo's room.

"What's my fault, brother? Brother silenced me. Say brother."

"You're not wrong. I'm wrong" said Edo. His eyes don't want to look at Laras. Something that is difficult for him to express to anyone but he knows that feeling is often present when he contemplates himself. Edo's view was blank forward. Baras saw him like a man who had no power to live.

"Sister has nothing wrong with me. Why lock yourself up like this. Lookyourbody. Two days Mr. Edo did not work for no apparent reason. Wh why? Think Auntie, brother. He loves you."

"I think about other people's feelings, what about mine?" Edo's gaze was right at the barreled but cold eye bead.

The two pairs of netra were looking at each other.

"What did Brother Edo say?? I don't understand."

"You're pretending you don't understand, right?"

"Say the obvious brother and do not do this again. Shut yourself in the room. Letting yourself not eat and making Auntie think."

"Let me die, Laras."

"No. Brother Edo cannot die. Remember aunt and Oom."

Behind the walls Morina still heard their conversation. Tears spread and her nose is red. My heart held back so that her tears would not break.

"I misplaced this feeling, Laras. I love you."

The barrel felt its head pulsating. So because of that?

"Because of that, brother Edo did something like this? Brother, look at your circumstances now. Edo's sister is like a zombie."

"Let me be a zombie or a monster. What do you care."

"Mk. Come on stand up."

"You better go home Laras. Vim will look for you and scold you."

"I won't go home until Brother Edo gets up and eats. Your body's getting sluggish."

"I'm not hungry. Even if I stand up won't change anything, will I? You can go home Laras."

"You could get sick. If Edo's sister is sick, Aunt Morina is sad. Come on get up."

"Stay with me Race."

"What's? That's impossible brother. I've had a family. Take responsibility for that to the family

it's highly unlikely. Conscious brother. None of this can happen. Many times I have convinced Brother Edo of this." And for sure Laras only loves Vim.

"Maybe it's Laras. We're running."

"Beeuhh." Laras.

"I did not dare and did not want to betray Mas Vim. Love mas Vim is more than enough brother I can't even match."

"Please help me Laras."

"I can't. I always pray that God will send you a better wife than me, brother. Come sis. Think of me as your little brother because to me brother Edo is my brother."

"I can't Barrel." Edo rubbed the face surface.

"could. Brother can. Brother Edo must try to divert that sense. I can't repay you, brother. Forgive me. Forgive me brother...." Laras really did not expect this to be the case. It's as weak as Edo is now.

Aunt Morina came in to bring food for Edo. Leaving them both again.

"Edo...mommy doesn't want to see you get sick, okay?" He said before leaving the room.

"This is my sister eating ya." Laras offered a bowl of soup cream. Edo remained silent.

"Eat brother. Hold this." Edo is not flinching.

"alright. I bribe but this is it once. Before I go home. Open Edo's mouth."

Edo looked at Laras and opened his mouth. A spoonful of soup entered Edo's mouth. Then again and again.

"Many things we should give priority to, not just about ourselves. The family needs to think about it. Ponder far ahead. Future brother and aunt also oom because only brother Edo their hope. From now on open the heart of Brother Edo to another name and think of me as a sister. Okay brother?"

"What are you talking about? Smartass."

"This is right. From now on Brother Edo must forget me!"

"Can't!"

"could. Get my name out of the way, brother. Please...."

"Go home. I don't deserve to hold you back. Anyway I don't want you to be in trouble for coming here. I'm aware of how much Vim loves you but I don't know why I'm just thinking about you."

Outside Aunt Morina covered her nose holding a sob. He could feel the pain in Edo's heart. Unable to stand there for long, aunt Morina walked downstairs.

"I'm home brother. Vim is coming home soon. Brother Edo take good care of yourself. Again think of Aunt Morina." The barrel is trying not to be fragile. Tears cannot be shed. A drop of fall will follow more clear circles than the net.

"Let me hold your hand just once Laras after this I won't disturb your calm" Edo said.

"But brother...."

"Just five seconds," Edo bargained.

Edo touched Laras' fingers. The feeling he was enduring was tightening his chest. A few seconds later the grip gradually stretched and Edo said, "Go home. Forgive me. I'll be fine." He should have given up Laras. It is free to expect the impossible

"Sir Edo promised? Arise."

Edo did not answer. Edo stood up slowly and walked straight to his big bed.

"I'm home, brother. I hope Brother Edo is always okay. Take care of Aunt Morina for me."

Without looking again Laras passed down. Leaving Edo alone.

Laras searches for Morina's aunt below but does not find the woman. It can't stay there. Vim will ask if he comes home but Laras is not at home.

Something strange was felt by Laras while heading home. Occasionally his net glanced at the rearview mirror in the car. The car behind the barrel runs slowly as well as the car Baras.

The steering wheel is deflected by the barrel to the right. Stop by the supermarket on the right. Get out and walk towards the entrance of the supermarket. The feeling is still the same. Someone followed from behind. The barrel sped up a step and subconsciously bumped into someone passing in front of him. Laras apologized and did not expect, the person who was trailing since earlier also held the body so as not to hit the body Laras.

"Who are you!?"

"Oh ma'forgive me, I almost bumped into Madam."

"Who are you?!!" The barrel is getting fierce. "Disturbing people's privacy. Since when do you follow me?"

"Since morning Madam."

"Since morning?? What is your purpose and who told you to?" Barrel took the phone out of the bag.

"My husband will act on you and your boss. Justjust look. You're threatening my safety."

The man's forehead shriveled. Laras called Vim and got a response.

"Hello baby, someone's been following me since morning. Maybe you want to kidnap me. I'm scared."

'......'

"Haah?? Why would mas do? Not telling me first. Look out for you to come home later."

'....."

"Have you at home? Oiya is almost Maghrib. I want to buy a little snack. Wait, mas?"

Barrel immediately searched for the needed items. Only five types of snacks that he had predicted. Get out again and leave the bodyguards standing outside the door waiting for Laras.

"How much are you paying?" Ask Barrel before closing the car door.

"Many Madam. It's better to support my family." The bodyguard answered well. It was no problem for him to get the escorting task. It was a normal job to do and the pay this time was quite large for him.

"Still need?"

"Obviously madam. Is it not wrong, madam, I take care of Madam? Please don't let me get fired madam."

Laras wanted to laugh at the words of the bodyguard. He had no intention of asking Vim to pull back the bodyguard.

Vim rubbed his wet hair while listening to the words of Laras. Protests Laras because he sent another bodyguard now.

"Mas I'm not an important person. No need to be controlled."

"You don't matter to anyone else but you're so important to me and Vian that even a handful of people love you like..."

"Like who? Only you and my family love me whole. I realize that."

"I know you went to Edo's house earlier, Laras." Vim said relax. As much as possible to restrain emotions. He's better now.

Surely the bodyguard reported to Vim Laras activities today.

Baras prepared to receive Vim's anger. Better not look over and look at Vim. Vim will swallow himself round and round. Baras could not accept it and he kept silent to the window covered in curtains.
