Brother, I Love You
A Request

"You're crazy, stupid brother! How could you just accept that matchmaking?!" Edward just silently shook his head to listen to Brandon's babbling and nagging when they reached their residence.

Deana had even massaged her temple which suddenly throbbed pain. Looks like his migraine's starting to crumble. Bryan is now engaged in a television remote. Watching the evening news show solemnly without feeling bothered by the ravings of his eldest son. It was as if what was happening was just a midnight chant.

"You even know for yourself, you're already tied to a brother-in-law relationship with Bella, deck. Did you forget that?!" Brandon is getting emotional. Edward then flicked his shoulders indifferently, rolled his eyes panted and then walked up each step of the stairs to the second floor where his room was. Brandon was made to gawk with Edward's carefree attitude. How could Edward be this heartless to his own best friend?

Brandon remembered Alfred. And Brandon's perfectly rounded eyes remembered something. "Oh, no." His murmured then turned towards the exit.

"Mommy, I went to Alfred's house to see Gavyn!" Brandon shouted a little.

"Alfred?" Lirih Deana is frozen. He then turned to Bryan who was cool with the television show in front of him without the slightest burden. Making Deana's forehead shrivel in wonder.

"Bryan! How could your attitude be this calm after hearing the astonishing news from the Chal family, Hah?!" Tanya Deana wanted to know.

Bryan glanced at Deana for a moment before replying. "What should I confuse? Stop, Deana. Trust Edward's decision."

"But-"

"She must have thought about the decision well, dear." Sela Bryan tried to calm her wife's heartache. Smiling at her so much that Deana gave a creep of horror because she never saw her husband again with such a big smile since they had Brandon until now.

But, considering that Bella lives always together with Alfred makes her confused. How could Bella suddenly be in Chal's house without being accompanied by Alfred? What really happened to them? And what are they planning to do to make Bella sad like that?

**********

Brandon stepped quickly towards the house next door. Knocked on the door in a hurry.

Gavyn, who had decided to stay over and over again, was upset by the unusual door blow. He rushed to the door and opened it.

His eyes were round when he saw Brandon standing with a flat face staring at him. "Bran..don? You're home yet?"

"Yes. Can I come in? There's something I want to tell you."

"certain." Gavyn opened the door wide. Give way for Brandon to come in. The first impression when Brandon entered Alfred's house was that he was able to feel an aura of despair emanating from the figure of the man sitting on the living room sofa while looking at a portrait on the figura. Opposite her, there was Helena who had fallen asleep on the fur carpet with her breath. What caught Brandon's attention was the figure of a man who looked so bad. Also... For the first time, he saw the real face of Alfred that was quite - ah, no. But very handsome is no less handsome than him. Shit, rutuknya. He preferred Alfred to wear glasses instead of glasses. So he doesn't feel rivaled. Ah, even her messy hair falling to the left made her even more macho and Hot! Brandon admitted that. But don't think he likes that guy. No. gabe... He's still normal, okay?!

Brandon had even just found someone capable of shaking his cold heart. Wh who? Only Brandon, God, and the author know. Or maybe you can guess who that person is? Ok, Skip!!

Brandon approaches Alfred followed by Gavyn behind the tall man. Brandon watched Alfred for a moment. Ah, she knows very well that Alfred loves his foster sister Bella very much. He could feel that even if he only caught a glimpse of it.

"So, what are they talking about at your dinner?" Gavyn asked impatiently.

Brandon turned to look at Gavyn. Sighing heavily before answering. "many things. And that's about Bella." When she mentioned Bella's name, she turned to Alfred who was also looking up at her. To make their irises meet each other. It was as if they were telepathizing just through the eyes of each other.

"About Bella's match with Edward." Brandon still stared at Alfred unblinkingly.

Gavyn is wide-eyed, but the response to Alfred's expression is unreadable by Brandon or Gavyn. Alfred just silently stared, and still stared at Brandon as well without blinking. Seemed surprised not. What happened to Alfred?

"How can you?" Gavyn's words were more air in the room than Brandon's.

"Bella was at first in a match with me." Gavyn looked up at the man with squinting eyes. "But I refused. I'm not that stupid, Vyn." Imbuh Brandon's.

"Do you know the address of Aunt Anita's villa?" Alfred asked, starting to speak. Made Gavyn look at him in disbelief.

"Yes. But if you go there, I don't think it'll work." Brandon answered, explaining.

"No problem. I'm gonna try to go undercover to get there to see Bella." Alfred Timpal. Brandon looked at Alfred fixedly. He could see the seriousness of the figure of a Alfred Frederick who had known him for a long time. Behind my face, the man is a man full of responsibility. He nodded and typed something on his phone.

The kling!!

Alfred's cell phone rang. "open up. I sent that address to your phone." Brandon jerked his chin pointing at the phone on the man's desk.

***********

Alfred stopped in front of a luxury building. Looking up, looking up with my eyes. More precisely on the luxurious building in front of him. A villa. He circulated his gaze towards the balcony of the villa looking for something. One door opened from the second floor of the villa. Quickly he hid behind a tree to find out who would come out of the second floor door.

"Bella's." Alfred's murmur scolded. How happy he was when he saw the person who came out was Bella. And came Aleysia who accompanied the blonde girl on the balcony. They seemed to be joking with laughter without burden. Ah, is her Bella happy here? Does Bella want to accept an arranged marriage with Edward? Huh-ah.. He felt sanctioned to come to see Bella.

Alfred lowered his gaze. Thinking something. Until suddenly he widened his eyes when he saw a plumber passing by and into the villa area owned by Anita. A grin appeared at the corner of his lips then approached the plumber quickly.

"Sorry to interrupt, sir?"

"Yes?" The plumber frowned in confusion when his path was suddenly blocked by Alfred.

"Look, are you assigned to repair the damaged tap water in the villa?" Alfred pointed to Anita's Villa. The plumber nodded and replied simply as yes. "If I take your place, what about you?" Back the plumber was beaming with sanctions noticing Alfred's sanctioned appearance.

"You don't have to worry, sir. I'm also an expert at repairing broken plumbing. If you want, I'll pay you 2x in exchange for the loss." Alfred Obviously.

The man thought for a moment before finally nodding. Doesn't matter. He will also get a replacement.

Alfred calmly began to enter the Villa when a servant had already invited him in. With a new appearance is also a curly brown wig. Gray eyes with a tompel mark on the left cheek.

"Are you the plumber my husband called?" Ask Anita suddenly.

"Yes, madam. Where should I fix the broken plumbing?" Alfred replied in a voice made as small as possible but subtle as he bowed politely.

"Let's come with me." Alfred followed the woman upstairs. Until arriving in a room that immediately displays the figure of Bella as well as Aleysia who is still standing on the balcony.

'Alfred's inner 'real' did not expect.

"Well, the plumbing in this room is broken. Please fix it." Alfred nodded with a mutter. Seeing Aleysia as well Bella then Anita called her and told her not to disturb the plumber work. In his heart Alfred was grateful that Bella was not asked to come out.

After Anita left, Alfred immediately carried out his duties. Even if it wasn't his profession. But for the sake of love, anything he would do was to meet someone he loved dearly. Even if he is willing to achieve his goal.

Seriously doing his job, Alfred suddenly stopped his job when his ear accidentally caught the conversation between his lover and Aleysia.

"Your reasoning makes me clueless, Aleysia. You said you'd help me out to be with my brother again. But where?!" Bella protest.

Aleysia chuckled amusedly. Increasingly made Bella bend her face annoyed. "I'm serious about that, Bell m. I hope Edward isn't serious. So we can work with him."

"But Le, you don't know how that fucker is."

"Damn it?" Beo Aleysia raised one eyebrow.

"I mean, Edward." Erat Bella fast. Aleysia muttered seductively. With both eyebrows he raised upwards while nodding. It made Bella squeak her eyes.

"You just calm down. I'll definitely help you get back to Alfred." Said Aleysia the other time.

Dhegs!!

Alfred petrified for a moment. Did Aleysia just say she wanted to help Bella get back to her? Did he just hear wrong? Maybe there is still hope he can be with Bella without a desperate path?

"But-"

"It has. Trust me. I'll be out for a minute." Sela Aleysia's. Bella nodded her head, watching her cousin who started to come out of her room.

When Bella was about to throw her ass to sit down, she suddenly froze when her ear caught someone calling her.

"Bella's."

'This sound..'

A sreekk!!

With a slow motion, Bella stared wryly at the man dressed in jumpsuit, curly brown. The gray iris of the eye dived into his sapphire iris longingly. For a long time they looked at each other without moving from where they stood. Until Bella immediately smothered her mouth in disbelief.

'Alfred. Is that really you?' Inner screaming. When his eyes accidentally stopped under the man's lips. Where there is a small but clearly visible mole on his left. Of course Bella knows very well who the man who is now standing in front of her with his clothes and striking appearance.

"Alfred, is this you?!" Excited shouting. And the man who was Alfred then smiled happily while nodding. Stretching out both hands invited the blonde woman to welcome her embrace.

With pleasure Bella immediately ran in and hit Alfred without caring he almost fell.

"Revelation!!" Pekik Alfred's. Bella is not angry. She jumped into her husband's body with mixed feelings. Hugged her lover tightly. Until without realizing it, drops by drops of clear liquid liquid flowed just like that from his eye fertilizer.

"I miss you so much, Al. So very.. Hix.. Hicks.." His sister sobbed with a trembling voice. Alfred smiled with relief. Replying to Bella's embrace is no less tight but seems soft with longing. Inhaling strongly the scent of Bella's body through the niche of his wife's neck. Hoping to be able to treat his passionate feeling. The longing he had been in for two days.

"I'm Bell too. I'm also." Reload Alfred. While gently rubbing Bella's back dear.

Bella slowly let go of her embrace unwillingly. With greedy movements, Alfred just kissed all parts of Bella's face rough but the condition of the release of his longing. From starting to kiss Bella's nose, both cheeks, both eyelids, peeping on her old and last forehead, Alfred pulverized Bella's cherry lips demanding. Squeeze his tongue to explore the oral cavity of his lover who has been in two days is not in taste. To make Bella cry haru in their kiss. With a heavy heart Alfred released his pagutan to equally resupply oxygen into their lungs. Bella looked back at her lover's obsidian eyes. He smiled in tears of longing. "I beg. Take me away, Al. I want to be with you again. And..." Bella. Gently rubbing his still flat stomach. Alfred then lowered his gaze towards where Bella's right hand was in her stomach. He smiled understandingly.

"I knew. I'll take you away. But not now." Alfred walked towards the balcony without intending to go outside just to check his current position. Bella frowned not understanding still holding Alfred's right hand. Before the man turned back around holding Bella's shoulder staring fixedly at her sapphire iris.

"I'll come again"

The clamps!!

The two turned to the door and..

"You?!!" The growled person who was now standing in the doorway with a face hardened in emotion. Bella scowled backwards in fear behind Alfred. Looking at that man is a horror.

'Shiitt!!'

The man rushed in and looked at Alfred. "Even though you look like this, I know that you are Alfred Frederick!!" The man emphasized Alfred's name in detail and pierced sharply. "it turns out my mother was deceived by your appearance."

Bella was surprised. How could the person in front of him know that Alfred was in disguise? Aleysia suddenly appeared with a puzzled look. Not understanding what is really going on. Edward came behind him.

"What's this?" Ask Aleysia to know.

"Now you're out or I-"

"I what, Ashley?!!" Cut Bella fast. Yeah, that guy is Ashley who's now staring at Bella instead. But Bella bravely returned Ashley's hateful gaze. "I told you, Ashley. Never once touched our lives, especially Alfred. To death I will never forgive you!" Show Bella right in front of Ashley's face.

Aleysia was starting to understand now. So did Edward who looked at Alfred fixedly. 'Huh-ah... Problem again.' Edward's inner frustration.

"LET ME SAY!!" Ashley's screams began to rise in emotion and drove Alfred away. Even he didn't want to break Bella's rant at all.

"Well, I'm out, Ashley. But remember one thing. I'll take Bella and our son as soon as possible!!"

"OUT.AR!!" back Ashley kicked Alfred out. His breathing was dull with emotion.

When Alfred was about to step away, Bella as fast as lightning held the man's hand firmly. Making Alfred stop and turn towards Bella who was looking at him pleading with a soft shake. As if saying don't go. Alfred smiled wryly. Turn around while rubbing Bella's cheek dear.

"I'll be right to pick you up. Hold on for a moment for our love. Our son-in-law." Alfred's hand came down and rubbed Bella's flat belly dear.

"What's up, this?!!" Anita's sudden exclamation made the atmosphere in the room instantly turn gripping. Alfred's body stiffened. Bella's been shocked at the sculpting.

'Ashley alone is troublesome especially in added Anita.' Inner Alfred nelangsa.

Anita is surprised to see Bella with the plumber Chal calls, but seconds later she realizes the irregularity that is happening inside Bella's room right now.

"Oh.. So you're the culprit of the problem? Alfred Frederick the kid who was picked up in the trash?!!" Anita's touch with a high voice. He clucked a few times, shaking his head. Smirked scornfully at Alfred while staring at the man.

"GUARD!!" The clattering of steps instantly filled the front corridor of Bella's room. Makes Bella flinch in disbelief. Four large men in black stood behind Edward.

"Take this guy out!!" Anita's orders haughtily appoint Alfred.

The guard immediately dragged Alfred. Until making Bella in the fog when Alfred was pulled roughly out of his room. Everyone escorted the guard to watch them drag Alfred.

"Don't treat him harshly, please." Pekik Bella tried to stop the treatment of the guard who continued to push her lover like a farm animal. But the guard didn't bother either.

Until suddenly Alfred was thrown out of the door almost fell on the ground. "IT!!" Bella was about to run over to Alfred but Anita quickly held her hand firmly.

"Auntie. Please don't hurt her." beg Bella with tears streaming down.

"I warned him to stay away from you. But he remains desperate. So he has to accept the consequences for what he's done." Hardik Anita doesn't want to know. He told her to beat Alfred.

Bella who can't stand it anymore tries to think hard to find a way to stop all this. Until his eyes hit on one thing in the villa.

The woman ran to get the thing and came back to everyone. "If anyone dares to touch Alfred, then I will kill myself!" Screeched Bella. He clasped tightly onto a fruit knife and pointed the sharp edge of the knife at his stomach

"Bella, No!!" Aleysia exclaimed staring at the sharp blade horror.

"Bella, auntie please don't be determined." Anita is going wrong now.

"Auntie wouldn't hurt Alfred, Bella. But please. Put the knife down, okay?" Then Anita looked at the guards to leave. Bella then threw the knife in her hand towards Alfred.

"You're okay, right?" Alfred nodded and then got up.

"Remember Bella. You've been aunty to Edward. Stop to hook up with Alfred again." Anita's Sweat.

Bella looked at Alfred. Down in helpless. He wanted to rebel, but Aleysia...

"Hold a little more. I'll figure out a way to get you home." Bella sobbed, nodding loudly as she muttered in response, "Don't be afraid. I will always be there for you."

"If someone finds a travel companion like you, who else would be afraid to face this world? I'm not afraid of Al. I believe you." reply Bella.

Ashley snorted scornfully at the sight of their truly disgusting scene, "Alfred..."

Hearing Ashley interject, the attention of everyone who saw the scene of the two couples turned to look at Ashley who was grinning savagely in a haughty manner, "How can you be so very sure, you can be so confident, someone who is not yours will be yours? Bella's not yours, then why are you so adamant about having her, huh?! Hmph.naive!"

"All is worthy in love, Ashley. Wait and see. Bella is mine, even if you try to separate us, marry her to another man, she will still be mine. Because his heart has long died and lived with me."

Ashley stared intently at Alfred with a desire to kill. He felt nauseous hearing Alfred's poetic-ass words, "Heh!! One day you'll see how Bella's heart will come to life after her marriage to Edward."

'Impossible. That's pretty impossible'. Someone is desperate.

"We'll see later. Who will win in love." Alfred said, full of confidence.

*********

Three days after the incident, Bella was completely under the watchful eye of Anita's guards. That caused the woman with the blonde hair to be unable to move freely. Neither did Aleysia who found it difficult to discuss the issue of how to return Bella to Alfred. All completely under Anita and Ashley's watch.

This morning some party organizer workers were already turning back inside Villa Anita. Decorate in such a way the room in the villa for the event that will be held later tonight by the woman. Where the event is Bella's engagement with Edward is accelerated.

"I'm going to buy something first, Mom. Maybe I'll ouch!!" Aleysia complained when she suddenly let out a fuss while walking and accidentally collided with someone.

When he looked up, the look on his face changed between being fascinated as well as being surprised with half-open lips.

'Oh God... Handsome prince.' He said in his heart.

And the man who collided with her smiled warmly at her. Aleysia stared at the man. Until one snap of the fingers resuscitated him making him jerk.

"Did I hurt you?" Asked the man staring worriedly.

"Ah, t-no. I-I'm fine. Hehe... You take it easy." Aleysia was nervous. Even his smile looked crisp.

"You want to go?" Aleysia nodded while muttering in response. "May I take you?"

"Huh?" Aleysia was surprised to gawk at the man in front of her in disbelief. Did he hear wrong?

"How's it?" The man asked for approval.

"But.. You"

"I don't mind just taking you away. To the end of the world I'll take it as long as it's with you." As long as the man cuts.

THE BLUSH!!!

A red gush instantly appeared on both sides of Aleysia's cheeks, the woman lowered her head in embarrassment and nodded. When else can an offer from the man she secretly likes.

The man grinned meaningfully then turned to look at the eleven-twelve man with himself who was standing not far from him.

"Daddy, I'm going for a minute. It's okay, right?"

"Whatever." replied the man beside her briefly while throwing his face away.

Aleysia then followed the man out. Get in the Porches car owned by the man like a princess opened by her prince.

The man who still lives in the residence of Anita who is none other than Edward began to climb the stairs with a quiet step in the villa owned by Anita to the room Bella after previously received permission from the beak woman that baya.

Chequek!!

The first thing to look at was Bella who was sitting on the floor hugging her knees. Even when the door was open, Bella remained silent, still curled up with a blank look.

Edward walked over to Bella. Choose to sit next to the woman. He breathed for a moment. Trying to relax his mind so as not to feel burdened.

"Do you remember, Bell. What if we promised each other to always share?" Edward said to the past. Bella only glanced at the man through the tail of her eyes in response. "And I wish I could always be your back when you're sad. Not as your lover." Its effects.

Silent.

Still no response from the woman made him laugh at himself. What is he expecting? Bella doesn't even want to talk to him anymore. "Do you hate me?" Pause for a moment. "Hmph! You idiot!! You definitely hate me. What kind of friend am I? sam"

"Edward?" Sela Bella called the man.

Edward turned his head to look at Bella who was still propping her chin on her knees.

"What are you planning to do now?!" Seloroh Bella intimidates. Edward was quite surprised. Bella suddenly interrogated him.

"I don't-"

"LIED!! Tell me the truth, Edward. Say it!! If you really think I'm your best friend, would you please explain to me what you want? Why did you accept this match?! Explain to me Edward, please." Racau Bella again roared for an explanation. He even looked at Edward with red eyes. Edward made his eyes surprised. Looks like Bella's been crying for a long time. Until both of his eyes were swollen.

Huh-ah.. Really am. He really can't bear to see Bella like this. Edward lowered his gaze, staring at Bella's fingers. He found a ring with a sapphire-colored gemstone.

'I understand now.' His inner. He then held Bella's right hand. Makes the blonde woman frown wondering. For a moment Edward smiled very thinly staring at the ring embedded in Bella's ring finger.

"If you want me to explain, be patient, Bell. I just want to do something that I think is right here." Edward obviously. Bella frowned unintentionally by turning her head to the side looking at Edward suspiciously.

"Bell, I'm begging you. Trust me. All my life I've never asked or begged you, have I?" Edward paused for a moment to stare at Bella demanding. "This time. This time, Bell. I'm begging you. Let's just say this is my first and last wish." Imbaby. He breathed for a moment.

Bella was still staring at Edward with curiosity. "What plea do you mean?"

Edward looked up and made his eyes meet the now-empty iris of Bella's sapphire. He smiled knot. And so clear in Bella's eyes. "I beg. We are going through this engagement. Let's just say this engagement isn't a legitimate engagement."

Bella frowned, failing to understand. "And for a while, keep the gift ring from Alfred until the engagement is over."

"you mean?

"I mean, after our engagement is over you can wear Alfred's ring back. And you keep our engagement rings. Think of it as a memento of me as your best friend." Edward explained at length. Making Bella gawk at the longest sentence from Edward all this time.

"Then?" Bella asked paused her words. "What about our wedding plans?" Its effects.

"It will continue Bell."

"You-you"

"I told you, didn't I? All you have to do is trust me. Then everything will be fine."

After saying that, Edward left Bella alone again. Give the blonde woman time to digest everything she has said.

Bella was silent about digesting everything. Maybe he should trust his childhood friend. The feeling is that everything will be fine.

'May you not let me down, Edward'.

***********

'The number you are going to is out of range'

Liliana hissed while trying to call her best friend's number. Shouldn't the woman have come back a few days ago? Bella has promised to meet again after returning from her holiday. But it's been a few days, and there's still no news.

"Where's Bella?" Liliana looked back at the screen of her phone that displayed Bella's contacts. Many times he tried to contact, but always failed. What really happened to his best friend?

Not far from him, Max walked with a big smile towards him. "Lilute. Why are you here alone?"

Looking up, Liliana looked at Max who was sitting next to her. She flinched and chose to stare at the screen of her phone trying to contact her best friend in another way. Max frowned when he noticed Liliana who looked unusual. Is there something going on?

"What's wrong?" max asked, starting to get curious.

"Bella's been a little difficult to contact these days. Though before, he had never been like this" he answered Max without distracting him from the phone screen.

Max realized this was a little strange. Waitaminute! Didn't she get to see Bella with Edward a few days ago?

"Last I saw him go to college." Liliana suddenly looked at Max attentively, which caused Max to be slightly misbehaved. "You... Not meet her?"

"When did you meet him?" ask Liliana seriously.

"Emmm... Surrounding... Three or four days ago. Uh, but I completely forgot." Max replied stammeringly while recalling.

"max.. Try to remember back." said Liliana, trying to interrogate Max. I don't know why something's wrong with Bella. He was never ignored by the blonde woman despite being with Alfred. Even when Bella was on her honeymoon during this one month, the woman always took the time to send a message just to ask her news. Bella's phone was always on stand by even though the woman did not reply to messages in a fast response. At least, his phone never died.

Even though Bella is busy, the woman will only tune her phone ringtone to silent. This is not true.

"But it seems that when I saw him with Edward, there were two women who suddenly caught my attention. He talks to Bella as if they already know Bella quite well. But since I felt it was nothing strange, I chose to leave. There was Edward."

"Two women?" parrot Liliana, Max muttered as he nodded in response. Liliana tries to think, are they Bella's distant family? But if so, when Bella gets married, Alfred will invite them as Bella's guardian. Ah, crap!

"Hey!" Ken runs by shouting to Liliana and Max. Seeing Ken's arrival, Liliana frowned as she watched the man's expression as if seeing a ghost in broad daylight. Liliana glanced at Max and so did Max who glanced at her as if they were talking through the look in the eye.

Ken stopped by propping up his knees, his breath hunting and trying to neutralize himself. Taking a deep breath, he exhaled slowly before standing firmly staring at Liliana with a worried expression.

"Lili, have you heard the news?"

"What news?" Max asked me. Ken looked at Max instead.

"It's about Bella and Edward. I heard"

"Sound what?" Liliana parrotted, her heart suddenly anxious and scared. His premonition said that the news to be conveyed by Ken was unpleasant news.

"They'll get engaged."

DEG!!

Liliana and Max gasped. Moreover, Liliana knew about Bella's condition long before the woman completed her script assignment.

What about Alfred? Does that guy know? Isn't Bella the man's wife? How could Bella accept an engagement offer from Edward? This is not true.

"Infederation? When's? Why didn't I hear this news?" Max asked.

"I heard this also only from the confusing news. Sammy heard it firsthand. Maybe Edward hasn't told you this. I heard, their engagement is going to take place tonight."

Liliana stared intently at Ken with an expression of disbelief. That quick? This is what's really going on? There's no way they'll hold an engagement in such a fast time without preparation, right? Although it has been prepared in advance, but if the time is too tight, will not the preparation not be maximal?

Alfred. What about that guy? How could he let his wife get engaged to someone else? What is that man thinking? Is Alfred an idiot?

Nah! This can't be allowed. She had to go to the man and ask him all the problems that were going on with Bella directly.

"Eh, Lilies!" Ken exclaimed to Liliana who suddenly ran with all her might towards the exit of the campus. The woman thought of only one thing. Go and see a man named Alfred to ask for an explanation on the matter.

"We're after." Max ran after the woman with mixed feelings. Followed by Ken who ran behind him.
