17. Random Chat
Anderson's residence was still filled with chatter from a group of teenagers, it was heard that they were very cool in talking.
"So Andra is also my cousin?" Zeana discovers that Aqila and Andra are her cousins. "Hm" Jeano answered.
"So they were the ones Daddy talked about this morning that I had a cousin?"
"Dear, they're both the ones we talked about."
"Emang om Felix said what?" Now that Andra asked, she no longer felt awkward to interact more with Zeana. They have also known for a long time just less familiar.
"Daddy said I had a sister, and a cousin."
Andra nodded softly, "Yes you have an older brother and a cousin of yours I'm the same Aqila."
"Well, when does Zero come home?" Aqila asked the news of her cousin's sister, had not heard from one of her cousins who was attending school abroad for a long time.
Zeana glanced at Jeano at a glance, "Said Uncle Hans Kak Zero will be home tomorrow or the day after."
"Well you want Zero?" It amazes Rara that her blessing has not forgotten her brother.
"No, I just know that my brother's name is Zero. And I'm really curious about my brother, I've known for a long time that I want to have a brother."
Zeana cheerfully told it as if it was a blessing to have a brother because after all in her former life as Riana, she was never close to men. Both Father and brother because Riana is an only child.
The others somehow have to respond, because they all know how the brotherly relationship between Zero and Zeana is. It is far from a fight but rather a cold war, one of the parties is not willing to lower his ego and the other is wrong in choosing the path.
Brotherhood is far from harmonious, but will be very important when viewed more carefully.
Bobby tried to melt this slightly awkward atmosphere with his little joke. "Good dong ayang Zero is back, I swear I miss."
"Bobby likes Zero's sister?" With her innocent face Zeana asked Bobby then shook her head slowly with worried face, "Can't, Brother Zero is a guy. Bobby likes Zero's brother anyway?"
Suddenly Zeana's words invited the laughter of everyone there, except for Jeano who only smiled faintly.
"Hahaha, how come you're so innocent gini anyway?" With laughter and hand movements that could not stand still Rara laughed while hitting the sopa that was sitting on her.
No doubt Aqilapun the same thing laughed while hitting the sump Rara who was beside him, "True An, you are innocent. That's not what it means."
While Zeana looked at all of them with a look of astonishment and annoyance because they felt they were laughing at what he said, even though he himself did not understand what was funny from his words.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Well you're funny know An, I was just kidding you know." While gently rubbing the tip of his eyes that let out tears Bobby spoke again while holding back his laughter, "I like bananas too."
"Well, Bobby said Zero's brother, meaning Zero's brother Bobby right? What does this have to do with liking bananas?" I don't understand what Bobby said.
"Just kidding, Bobby didn't mean it. And about bananas forget okay? That doesn't need to be discussed." Jeano rubbed Zeana's head slowly and tried to divorce her fiance and best friend.
"Legian lo becanda mulu anyway? Pake called Zero ayang again, plus the word kangen. Obviously people are going to overthinking you, and I like this innocent Anna. It's a lot of fun, hahaha."
Andra was no less amused by what Zeana said, and I don't know she felt more like her cousin who was like a bit than Zeana who was evil and likes to bully.
Zeana nodded slowly at the sign of understanding and did not want to prolong her curiosity.
They were all engrossed in their chatter that it was getting dark, and in the end they were all ready to go home.
"Anna we go home first yeah," Pamit Rara represents everything.
Seen the look of sad face of Zeana because it will be left by her friends to return home each because the day is getting late. And they haven't come home at all after school, they all go straight to Zeana's house as soon as the bell comes home and sounds.
"Promise me you'll play here again? I just know there are no friends to talk to and I haven't been able to do anything including school."
"Yes, we promise." Rara and Aqila said it simultaneously, while for the boys just listen to the talks of the ciwi-ciwi without intervening.
All but Jeano began to leave Anderson, heard by the sound of the motor slowly drifting away and missing.
Now living Zeana and Jeano, Zeana looks at Jeano who is still with her while watching television. "You're not coming home?"
Jeanopun looked at Zeana with a dislike look, "Later." He said Jeano briefly and refocused on the event in front of him.
"You have to go home, Jeano, especially since you went home from school, right?"
"You're upset with me?"
"H-huh?"
"Why did you tell me to go home mulu? You're upset with me, aren't you?"
Zeana stared in disbelief at Jeano. Look now that his flat face and irritability are gone, now Jeano is back to his annoying and potent nature.
Sighs softly Zeana tries to patiently face Jeano fashion as she now, misspelling a little maybe this big baby will be angry.
"It's not like it's Jeano, I'm just worried about you. However you must rest, I will not cast you out." Clearly Zeana with a patient tone in every word.
As Jeano began to misbehave what Zeana said, how could this not be the first time that Zeana was worried about him. The first time we are worried about a loved one is very pleasant, as if our partner has the same feeling of loving us.
"I'll be home after your Daddy comes, you said not that you're bored because there's no friends. So I'll keep you company until Daddy comes, okay?"
"Hm okay that way, but won't your mother be angry?"
"Mother."
"Mother?" Zeana raised her eyebrows not understanding what Jeano was saying.
"You used to call Mother, my Mother will be your Mother anyway, right?"
Zeana understands now that Jeano calls his mother with Mother, and Zeana who was also used to calling Mother.
"Well, won't you get angry?" Zeana made sure.
"No, Mother would be very happy if I were with you. Mostly Mother and Father are not here, they are abroad."
"So apparently, so you live alone at home?"
"There are a lot of maids and other workers at home, so you don't have to worry about me being alone."
Zeana again admired, for some reason Zeana began to adjust with Jeano's parents, especially maybe in the future will be his master. "When do Mom and Dad come home?"
"Now they'll be home when their business is done. Dad and Bundapun send greetings that sorry has not been able to see you at the time of the accident yesterday." Jeano stared while talking to Zeana with a guilty look.
"It's okay, anyways I'm getting better now." Zeana smiled at Jeano as if that was not the case.
"Thank you,"
"Together."
Jeanopun pulls Zeana into his arms and occasionally kisses Zeana on the top of his head. Both are washed away in that simple romantic voice, even without much talk and action but the small thing is able to make a sense of comfort for both.
