Adek I'm BAD
4. Beverage or Cold?

"Hou ...." Rio woke up from his uneasy sleep, the man was sitting on the edge of the sofa with his legs dangling down.

Rio turned his body to the right-left, then stood up and raised his hand upwards while pulling his body. After that, he moved his head to the right-left.

Her body felt stiff all after sleeping on the sofa. She actually could not bear to let Zahra sleep outside, eating her Rio sleeping on the living room sofa. The man was afraid that Zahra was going outside.

Last night Rio had heard Zahra delirious in his sleep, Rio was eager to hold Zahra right then and there. But, the man lost to his ego, Rio let Zahra outside, the man was afraid if he again hurt Zahra.

Which brother will not be angry, when he found out his only sister came home early in the morning in a state of heavy drunkenness. Plus Zahra's outrageous behavior on the way home, further enraged Rio.

Rio slapped Zahra, then pushed the girl to a fall on the front door tile. Rio did not let his sister into the house, the man locked Zahra outside.

Rio heard a voice from outside, the man walked to the door, it seemed like Zahra was already awake. As she opened the door, a girl with a pale face and messy hair was staring at Rio. The man looked at the girl before him heartily.

I'm sorry, Deck! I should have told you last night to sleep on the couch, not outside like this. Ahkk, I why? This is your own sister, not someone else! Why was it so angry yesterday? Though Ara is my own sister, I should not have been that angry last night, Rio said in his heart.

"Nr ...." The girl dropped Rio's gaze.

Rio immediately carried Zahra to his room. He realized that if Zahra was cold outside, he knew that while holding Zahra's shivering body. Rio laid his sister's body on the bed, then covered her as a chin.

Zahra looked at Rio with a thousand questions, the girl completely forgot what happened last night. For mosesabab why he sleeps outside he knows not.

"Lo, diem here anyway, don't say anything. I want to go downstairs," Rio's message to Zahra before the man goes outside the room.

Rio immediately picked up the glass and brewed the teabag, the man happened to see Bi Heni in the kitchen. Rio asked Bi Heni to help make a bowl of porridge for Zahra.

"Kok aden make tea, let me just," said Bi Heni.

"Udah, ga papa. Aunty makes porridge. This is the tea I put here, later aunt interrave tea equally porridge to her room Ara. Thanks, Bi."

"Yes, Den."

Rio returned to Zahra's room, the man carrying a basin of warm water and compresses. Rio compressed the eye-catching Zahra, it seems like the girl needs a lot of rest.

Someone knocked on the door, Rio guessed that it was auntie. "Lake in!" sahut Rio from within.

"Here, auntie wants to drink porridge just like Non Zahra tea."

"Auntie put it on the nightstand, later let me bribe. Thanks, Bi."

"Yes, Den. I'm going back to the kitchen first, okay?"

"Yes, Bi."

"De, wakeup! Eat first, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Get up, eat first!" Rio patted his sister's cheeks, the ombre toska haired girl opened her eyes. Rio helped his sister sit down.

"Drink first ...." Rio thrust a glass of warm tea at Zahra. After half the tea left, Zahra returned the glass to Rio.

"Eat first, Dek. Take the medicine." Rio took out a bowl of porridge, then fed Zahra painstakingly.

"Son, you didn't open the door for me last night? I slept outside. Tega you're the same as me?" ask Zahra when she's eating.

"Byeah, De! Don't you have a spare key, do you? At that time I told you, if I have slept you enter a key that I love," Rio replied reasoned, the man covered up the real facts.

"Yes, yeah. How can I forget, ahh, be*o, I be*o. Most drink my spit." Zahra smothered her mouth instantly, as she unintentionally uttered the word 'drink'.

Rio put back the empty porridge bowl on the nightstand, the man smilingly looked at Zahra. Rio took the fever-relieving medicine and a glass of water, then gave it to Zahra.

"Drink again, Deck?" rio asked as he received the glass.

"Ng, drink? Drink whatan, coffee times." Zahra laughed crisply.

"Don't lie to me again. I know, if you drink a lot. You won't like it if you drink a few glasses. I told you the same, don't—" Rio's sentence stopped because of one word, followed by Zahra's sudden embrace.

"Sorry ...."

Rio hugged his sister back, the man rubbed Zahra's wavy hair. Very similar to the hair of their deceased mother. Zahra let go of her embrace and lowered her head, the girl apologized for the second time.

"Sorry, yesterday I was down. So want to try the guenya," great-grandson Zahra said.

Rio exhaled a rough breath. Rio ... don't let your emotions go again. Patience, your brother has a fever now, he said in his heart. The man tried to dampen his emotions, lest he babysit Zahra back.

"Why try? Am I thinking about it?" rio asked patiently.

"Again me. Yeah, okay. I'm wrong, don't talk about it anymore."

Rio just nodded.

Huhh, fortunately he does not remember about the first kiss.if he remembers, I do not know what will happen, inner Rio.

"Ehh, Brother? By the way, my cheeks are like bruises, huh? So, this is my waist how it feels to be dislodged, really painful, sister!" zahra suddenly complained.

Rio was silent for a moment.

"There are mosquitoes all night, and you naboknya too hard, so be it. Nahh, when the mosquito nabok is not hit, you keep trying until you finally fall. That's the chronological time."

Zahra was somewhat hesitant with the explanation Rio gave, the girl could only scratch her non-itchy head.

"Lo today is the same tomorrow do not need to enter first, let me tell the lecturer lo."

"Tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow at the masseuse" Rio said.

Zahra nodded then smiled. "Why, lo? I know that if you go to college later, at best you skip. Yes, rather than you truant lo mingan lo rest only. Oh yeah, one more, the HP lo I brought for two days," Rio said absolutely, no rejection.

"Huh? My HP, my heart. Turn my HP!" 

"No! If you are tired of watching TV, that is definitely there. Don't take HP back, before you recover!" rio said firmly.

"Well, Brother?? How is that, si?" whinek Zahra while showing his puppy eyes.

"Nonsense. Now you sleep! I'm going to go first." Rio kissed Zahra's forehead, whereas the girl just snorted in annoyance.

"Rest, don't grunt mutely," Rio said before closing the door.

****

As usual, Diki or often called Bang Diki always deliver his sisters to school. Yep, she has two younger siblings, she lives with her mother and two younger siblings. Daddy's? Died two years ago. So, Diki is now the backbone of the family.

Selling fried rice is a job that he loves, although simple but he likes. Diki was once offered a job by Rio, but Diki refused it. The man had reasoned to want to develop his family business.

A few months after that, Diki was again offered a job by Rio. This time Diki could not refuse, he was made rector or head of the university in the education building belonging to the Rio family. Of course the man will partner with Zahra. But, Diki only occasionally to campus, because of his sales that he could not just stay.

Surely you ask why Diki was chosen to be the rector of the white pigeon? Of course, Diki is one of the masters of education, he used to devote himself in his campus as a vice rector. Diki, who was originally only the Dean, was appointed as vice-rector by the campus owner. But it did not last long, because his mother wanted Diki to continue the family fried rice business.

Drttt .. drttt. Diki's phone on the nightstand vibrates.

"Who is this, huh? How is it in my contact? I just lift it, who knows it is important," murmured Diki.

Diki put the phone to his ear. "Hello," Diki said first.

"Bang, you can take two days to campus. You replace me yes, make today the same tomorrow," said the person across.

"Sorry, who is this, huh?" Diki who did not know who the person who spoke to him had finally decided to ask.

"Away, Bang. It's me, when you don't recognize my voice. Please help me, I'm not feeling well. So, later the brother who went to campus, itung-itung while looking at the state of the campus. Yes, Bang? If you don't believe you can call Rio."

"It's Zahra?" Diki decided to guess.

"Yes, I don't want to know! You have to enter today! Remember, your responsibility!"

Diki sighed, not yet had Diki reply, the person across closed his phone unilaterally.

"Bang, help me napa!! Don't sleep mute, lo!" someone shouted from the first floor.

"Now you want to keep dreaming." Diki got up from the bed and immediately went down.

The house consists of two floors. After reaching the bottom, he immediately helped his sister clean up. After cleaning the house, they cleaned themselves.

"Yeah, Bang. Leave now."

Diki will take his first sister to campus, all of whom go to work. When he opened the door, Diki was surprised to see a man standing at the door of his house.

The son!! The person that Diki often referred to as the bastard was in front of him right now. The expression that Putra showed was also no less surprised by Diki.

The eyes of the Son never escaped in looking at a girl standing behind Diki.

A girl in a white T-shirt equipped with a navy sweeter was looking at someone in front of her brother in astonishment.

Diki looked at the Son from top to bottom. Tumben this neat boy like this? Usually begajulan cake thugs market? ask Diki in heart.

No less surprising, for what CS Rio is in the house of the girl he is being dragged into, so thought Putra roughly.

After being silent for quite a while, Diki decided to ask, "Lo what, here?"

"Well, what are you doing here, too?" The son asked back to Diki.

"This is my house!" said Diki, which of course made the young man in front of him surprised.

"Well!" The son looks in disbelief, if the house of Una Diki home as well. That means ....

"Do I need to repeat? This is my house! What do you want to come here? Your eyes also do not need to be clean!" sentak Diki, who made the young man return to the real world.

The girl behind Diki spoke up, "Abang can't do anything, by the way! I was so embarrassed, he was the person I was telling, the one I was talking about at the time. He's my senior too!"

A smile flashed across the face of the Son. Was this girl behind Diki just defending him?

"Ohh, so this is the one who hit, lo?" Diki's statement made Putra discouraged, not that time he was not accidentally, after all he was responsible.

"Elahh, Bang. I was not intentionally at that time. After all, his voice was also healed." Son's statement just made Diki breathe riled up. But, it is true that Una is healed?

"Eh, yes. Brother Putra why are you here?" una asked, the girl was certainly confused. Why is his senior brother coming to his house so early.

"Numpang boker, Deck! Yes you want to make sure you go together, yes time hitchhiking boker," replied the Son with a little joke.

"Ga there, Una must go with me, period!" The son received a strong rejection from Diki. Diki alone was not willing that Zahra had a special relationship with the young man in front of him, let alone his sister.

"Lahh, why, Bang? Kasian knows, he's been waiting for a long time, uh he's been left behind." Diki growled herself with her sister. Indeed, when seen the Son like showing authority in front of his sister.

"Yes, Bang. Let Una be with me, we're the same goal." The son tried to seduce Diki.

"Ga there!" Diki locked the door and pulled his sister's hand a little rough onto the motor.

"Sorry," he said as he gave the helmet, Una responded with a nod. Indeed Diki is always protective of his sister, especially if it is about men. This moreover, even Diki shunned the life of the Son inside out.

The son stood in front of the door of Diki's house. The young man looked at himself. It turns out that this is the sister of CS Rio?

Zahra pulled out the blanket her brother had been wearing. He woke up from his sleep because he felt something was forgotten.

"Report ...." Zahra held her head which felt very dizzy. The girl sat on the edge of the bed to relieve the dizziness on her head.

"What's the first effect of drinking Vodka, huh? Just a glass?"

The girl fell silent while trying to remember something.

"I was fine last night. What did I drink last night?" Zahra tried to think and made her head even more dizzy.

"White wine, that's high alcohol." Zahra cursed her cleverness, how she drank both drinks at once.

After feeling somewhat less dizzy, Zahra went out of the room and down the stairs. To go down the stairs he had to hold on to the barrier, his head still feels heavy now.

"Aunt ...." Zahra pulled a chair at the dining table and sat there. Aunt who was cooking at that time was surprised to see the presence of Zahra.

"Loh, Non. How about here, not a break?" Aunty had a chest in front of Zahra. Before replying, Zahra grimaced first.

Zahra's attitude to aunt was not like now, she used to be angry at her aunt and child for no reason. Until finally Zahra's father moved his aunt's education to America, even though at that time his aunt's son was still in 1st grade Junior High.

That was when Zahra's father was still around.

Zahra used to be an arrogant, spoiled girl, what she wanted to be granted right then and there. Zahra used to treat people at will, many hated him for that nature.

Since Zahra's father died, Zahra has been devastated. The girl lost the spirit of her life, she also had a suicide attempt that ended up in the hospital for one week. Until finally, Zahra meets a man. It was the man who motivated Zahra to continue her life.

Since then the person of Zahra was formed, the girl changed. The girl who used to be spoiled now became independent, but she was a little naughty. Several times Rio hurt her, but the girl kept quiet.

Zahra couldn't fight someone that person had a special relationship with, even someone she had considered family. Zahra couldn't fight them, how hard she tried, Zahra couldn't.

"You need to borrow his HP again!" Aunty reached into her pocket and gave her HP to Zahra.

"Who else are you calling?" Now the aunt also took part in pulling the chair in front of Zahra.

"You go on, someone forgot." Auntie nodded in understanding.

Aunty noticed Zahra's face fixedly, it was almost a dead red face. Aunt walked up to the silent Zahra while fiddling with her HP. Aunt put the back of her hand on Zahra's forehead.

"It's very hot" the aunt murmured softly,

"nun, isn't it cold?"

Zahra just shook her head slowly.

"Reverse to the room, huh? The fever's getting higher." Again, only answered with a sack. Zahra began to attach the HP to her ear.

After a long wait it finally sounded authentic from across. "Hello."

"Well, did you sit on campus?"

"Udah. Why?"

"Gue want you to videoin my friends, you know? Continue to Una and friends, ntar brother ask aja deh same Devan, genknya Una which. The Chilean Genk Trio. Oh yeah, one more don't miss, you also have to videoin Son and friends! Okay!"

For some reason before today, Zahra was suspicious of something. The girl wanted to make sure of something, before her suspicions actually happened.

Diki across there thought, Una? What does Una mean by that brother? If it was his sister, why was he involved?

"Well? Really kuker? Mending your work I'm selesein."

"Ga wants to know! Anyway brother should videoin them!"

"Gue being a sudden paparazzi dong?"

"Don't joke!"

"Yaw. Is there a problem with all of them?"

"No."

"Do you want to know if there's a video?"

"Alright, Bang! I don't want to know, anyway you have to send a video of their activities to me! Inget, two days! Do not forget, if you forget, I will not pay you! Wanna?"

"That's great, lo! Why aren't you the one who's videotaping? Huh huh? Who is this number? Lo new number?"

"Don't ask too many questions! You have to videoin! Number? This is not my number, this is my aunt's number, my HP is again seized the same brother Rio. An*ir, that's a man!"

"Wahaha. It turned out that the HP lo brought Rio, the pantes minjam HP his aunt."

"Yes, Bang. I don't want to joke, anyway you have to videoin them, then send it to me. Yes, I'm closed." The phone connection was decided unilaterally by Zahra.

"Corn, Non. Back to the room. Later non-fever is higher if long here." Zahra remained unmoved in her place.

"Come, aunt anther to the room." Zahra again nodded.

"Non, what do you want? Let auntie find it later, but not go back to the room first how?" This time the aunt tried to offer Zahra something. The girl seemed to think.

"Blueberry juice" said Zahra. Every time he remembered the name of the juice, he always remembered his mother and brother first.

"Yes, then not to the room first. Yok, aunty help me walk." Aunty helps Zahra to stand up, now Zahra looks very limp.

From the opposite direction, a man appeared. He coded aunts to stay with Zahra, until she was near them.

When the man was near them. "Kyaa .. sister ... descendingin.." whine Zahra who was in the man's arms. Zahra was surprised he suddenly floated in the air. The girl leaned her head against the chest of Rio field, it felt really comfortable.

Yes, that man was Rio, who had just come home from work. "Sir, told to take a break instead of taking a walk," Rio said anxiously to his youngest brother.

"Later the juice, take it upstairs, huh, Bi?" rio said to aunt.

"Ready, Den."

Rio was holding Zahra into that navy-dominated room. He lowered Zahra's weak body on his bed.

Zahra held Rio's arm as the man was about to get up. "Don't go ...."

Rio was lying sideways facing Zahra, he rubbed his sister's head affectionately.

"Why not rest, hm?" Rio placed the back of his hand on his sister's forehead.

Hot gini, pantes ni boy lemes, inner Rio.

"Sister is home, usually home in the afternoon." Instead of answering Rio's question, Zahra sneered at him instead.

Rio saw the circular thing in his hand. "It's wrong if you come home at this hour, want to nemenin your own sister during the ga may?"

The sound of knocking on the door rang out, aunty entered with Zahra's ordered juice.

"This is the juice, where are you going to put it?" ask aunt.

"Here, Bi." Aunt gave her juice to Rio. After that, he said goodbye to go back to the kitchen.

"Mau ..." whined Zahra when he saw his favorite drink had arrived.

Rio's taking fever-lowering drugs in the nightstand drawer. He helped Zahra to sit down.

"Diminished is just as medicinal, huh?" Zahra nodded at her brother's words.

After he finished, Zahra gave the empty glass to Rio.

"Sleep well, sister temenin." Rio went back to sleep beside Zahra and gently rubbed his head.

"You want a singing brother?"

"Boleh."

Rio's voice can indeed give his own calm to his listeners.

Rio started singing.

"Sun goes down and we are here together."

"Right here in my arms, tonnage!"

Rio kissed his sister's forehead after Zahra had completely fallen asleep. Rio's coming down towards the kitchen. There was a woman there, waiting for him with a chest. He looked at Rio seriously. Rio sat in front of the woman.

"Clearly!" tell the woman.

"Overnight Rio let Ara sleep outside, Rio forgot that Ara is not strong cold."

The woman took a long breath. It's always like this, the woman's inner self.

"Control your emotions Rio, lest your emotions hurt your sister. Do you remember your father's message?"

"Rio remember. Sorry, Rio's too emotional." The woman seemed to nod her head.

"Have you met him?"

"Yet. Rio hasn't met her at all."

"Hurry to end this misunderstanding, aunt does not want your sister to be a victim. He'll definitely do the same as your father did."

"Rio will resolve this issue soon. Yeah, Rio's going upstairs first." Rio left after the woman nodded her head.
