ALDEBY
|26.| May

"Gue seriously."

Beby's breath choked. His body suddenly froze. In fact, to blink alone Beby was unable to. Aldef's voice sounded resolute as if hypnotizing Beby to remain silent.

"HWAHAHA!" Suddenly, Aldef burst open while taking off his hand grip on Beby's shoulder.

Meanwhile, Beby was still stiffening. His brain suddenly turned slow.

"Hey!" Aldef shook Beby's shoulder a little hard. "Gue's kidding, Sky! Seriously, his face."

Beby who felt a little aware could only resign while balancing Aldef's laughter. His heart had almost jumped from its original place. "Oh, haha!"

Fucking boys! Not sensitive! beby's annoyance in heart.

"Al, I want something, dong," Beby said after a while his mood and heart rate returned to normal.

"What's the?" Aldef's bead looked straight into Beby's eyes. His left hand was propping up his chin, a sign that his sense of hearing was ready to hear the words coming out of Beby's mouth.

"It's me just lo as a guy, yeah."

Aldef nodded briefly.

"If, for example, a guy suddenly takes his ex and apologizes, what does that mean?"

"Hhhhhhhhh ...." Aldef thought for a moment. "If I think as a guy, anyway, actually the guy still loves his ex. He wants to reverse it."

"Seriously?"

"Yes. Why are you gini?" Pause for a moment. "Former lo nyamperin, huh?"

Without hesitation, Beby nodded. "This is the hospital where he used to help here. Last morning, he suddenly interrupted me and apologized."

"He took you back?"

"No."

"Yahuf!!!" Aldef breathed a sigh of relief.

It then made Beby look in wonder at him. "Why?"

"Huh? Naw. No wonder," said Aldef, laughing softly, hiding the lie lodged in his mouth.

"Sky, you still love, yeah, same old lo?"

Aldef's question was like representing Beby's question to himself. Is it possible, Beby's still that adorable with Arka?

Beby let out a heavy breath. His gaze, which was originally focused towards Aldef, now turned straight to dapan with full glare. A faint smile poured from his lips. "Yes." Yeah."

'Deg!'

From the way Beby talked about the former, Aldef should have expected it. But why does it hurt so much?

"Maybe." Beby's answer suddenly changed. "Gue doesn't know for sure about my own feelings. I'm confused. I think there's still something stuck." Beby looked back at Aldef. "But obviously, he's my solace, Al. He's the one who helped me get up from the slump. He can take me in his own way. He's also the one who put me through tough days."

Really am. Aldef was envious of the 'he' Beby mentioned. Why hasn't Aldef known Beby in the past? Why new now?

"Regardless of him betraying me. I don't know why, I don't think Arka can do that."

"Congratulations?" ask Aldef.

"Yes. His name is Arka." Pause for a moment. "If you have an ex?"

A name flashed through Aldef's head. Recalling the girl's face, made Aldef laugh bitterly. "I don't really know what it's called. Either he's my ex or he's not. Clearly, he left me without saying goodbye, without breaking up."

Both Beby's eyebrows linked in wonder. "Why did he leave you?"

Aldef raised his shoulders. "Gue doesn't know either, and doesn't care. Kan, now there's lo."

Beby laughing. Not knowing what Aldef said just now seriously or jokingly, Beby was reluctant to ask that question. In contrast to his brain that keeps guessing.

"Now, it's my turn to be the same lo, can you?" without Aldef.

"Can. Ask me."

"What kind of boy do you dream of?"

"Obviously, not kayak lo!" Beby laughed at the end of the sentence.

Aldef knew Beby's answer was just a joke. But for some reason, there was something that felt at the core of his heart.

"Sky, my guy's serious."

"OK-okay." Beby stopped laughing. "My dream guy's type is—"

'Drttt drtt's'

Aldef's cell phone lying on the nightstand shook, cutting Beby's sentence. Aldef rushed to reach for his phone and pressed the answer button.

"Why? Tumben you called me."

" .... "

"What deposit?"

" .... "

"Oh yeah, come straight here if that's it."

" .... "

"okay."

"Who, Al?" beby asked as soon as Aldef's chat with someone who knows who ended.

"My brother."

"Sister?" Beby's forehead frowned in wonder. "Lo has a sister?"

"Yes. Brother connect. Mama's husband's son."

Uh! Apparently Beby did not have time to hear a single sentence when Aldef told about his family in the elevator yesterday.

"Papa died when I was a kid. A few years later, mama married again the same widower son of one— who is now my sister."

"Ohh." Beby's mouth forms the letter O. "Keep, your brother's coming here?"

Aldef smiled slightly. "Yes. It just so happens that she works here, so nurse."

'Tok tok tok!'

"Well, maybe it's him" Aldef said as he glanced at the door. "Gue open the door first, yeah."

Getting a nod from Beby, Aldef moved from his position. The girl was curious as to who Aldef's half-sister was.

While Beby looked curiously at the doorway, Aldef who had faced off with the Princess took the initiative to ask the elder brother to come in.

"Look, yuk! I know Beby" said Aldef.

The princess nodded quickly. Because, the girl was convinced a thousand percent that her presence was not expected by Beby. "No need. I just want to take it from my mom."

"Loh, why? All of you look at Beby."

"No, Al. I'm not good at it."

Aldef turned to Beby. "Lo wants to meet my brother, right, Sky?"

"You."

"That!"

Princesses looked away. Wrongfully. His arrival here was a big wrong decision! He should have asked a doctor or other nurse to give it to Aldef.

"Let's go in!"

As Aldef continued to press on, the Princess had no choice. The girl walked right behind Aldef's back, making Beby even more curious.

"Lo why, anyway, follow me? Here!" Aldef pushed the Princess to the left.

Now, Beby could clearly see the face of Aldef's half-brother. Both of his eyes were perfectly rounded. His tongue suddenly felt dull. Wh why? Why is the world so narrow?

"Sky, know this is my sister, daughter her name. Sis, know this Beby, near me." Aldef introduced the two women nearby who were still diving into each other's eyes.

"Daughter." The princess who first came to her senses and reached out her hand.

Previously, Beby intended to return the hands of the Princess. However, the recording of how the Princess' and Arka's affection played back in Beby's mind. It makes Beby's nerve muscles stiffen. In fact, even to move his hand he was unable to.

For never getting a reply from Beby, the Princess pulled back her hand. "If so, I say yes. There's still a lot of work."

Although there were so many questions in Aldef's mind after seeing the interaction between Beby and the Princess, the man finally allowed the Princess to leave.

After the Princess, Aldef stared at Beby's goal. The girl was still staring blankly at the door. Not a preconception anymore, there must be something between the Princess and Beby.

"Sky?" Aldef tried to call Beby, but the girl still did not respond.

"Die?

"Look!" The touch that Aldef gave on the back of Beby's hand, only made the girl wake up and turn towards him.

"Huh-huh?"

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Lo why? Is there a problem with Princess? Lo know?"

Not yet Beby replied, their attention was again distracted by the arrival of Miko.

"Lo can go home now" Miko told Aldef. "Let me take care of Beby tonight."

"But—"

"Go home, Al," said Beby slowly. His bead of eyes looked at Aldef with a difficult to decipher gaze. "Lo come home."

"OKAY. If so, I say yes. Do not sleep malem-malem. Get well, Sky."

Beby replied with a small nod and a faint smile. Aldef who saw it was not able to hold his hand which reflexively scrambled the top of Beby's head was anxious. Honestly, Beby felt a great tremor in his heart as Aldef performed the stunt.

"Udah sono is home!" miko.

Aldef chuckles. "Yes-yes. Assalamualaikum."

"Waalaikumsalam," Miko and Beby answered in a compact manner.

After Aldef's departure, Beby who was originally sitting leaned changed the position to lie down. His eyeballs stared at the ceiling with full glare. From what Beby saw, it seemed that Aldef did not know about the relationship of the Princess and Arka.

"By."

The low-pitched but firm call made Beby turn towards Miko who was standing on the left side of her bed. Beby just realized, the look on Miko's face looked very serious.

"Hm?"

"Gue wants something. But you have to answer honestly."

"What?"

Miko pulled something out from inside the black backpack she was carrying. "What are you keeping this for?"
