Brother, May I Love You?

Brother, May I Love You?
Chapter 1


"Welcome to Kiran!!" exclaiming Putri and Cia together made many people inside the cafe look towards the three of them.


"Udah. Shame to know"


"Emang why? We are very happy that you finally received in accordance with what you want"


"Yes. You also have to work hard to be accepted" said Putri and Cia added a sense of pride in Kiran.


"OK .. okay. Thank you my dear friend!!!" kiran shouted not to lose. Better he add to the crowd than be ashamed of himself.


Some people laugh because they see their behavior. But Kiran doesn't care anymore. Putri and Cia celebrated the news of her acceptance to work at the Food and Agriculture Security Service Malang. Something that he had been doing for so long. Not a job that suits his college major. But the city he will occupy when he works later. Unfortunate. The place where he was born. Where he grew up until he was fourteen. Also the last place he met his mother, father and also.


"So .. will you stay in your old house?" princess asked Kiran's daydream.


"But the house was not occupied for long. How many years? ten years?"


Kiran smiled knowing how considerate her two best friends were.


"Udah denoted. Bibi said that the house was being contracted out of overhaul. But the outside is guarded first. It is a historic house from the Dutch era"


"Wuihhh if malem-malem must be horrified too. Are you sure you don't want to be arrested?" cia asked with a horrified expression.


Kiran smiled again. He was also hesitant to stay in the house. A home that holds a lot of good memories is good and bad. But ...he only wanted to remember his mother when he first entered the house again after ten years. He has not even been to his hometown since moving to Jakarta because of those memories.


"I. .. want to go there by myself. Well ... at least for the first day"


The two best friends fell silent for a moment after hearing Kiran's words. They knew that coming back to Malang and that house was something very important to him.


"When you're afraid of being lonely, just call me. I'll fly fast to Malang and nemenin you"


"Finish your graduation business first"


"Lho, your graduation isn't Cia finished?"


"not yet. I'm males. I don't think you're all on time"


Actually, instead of Kiran, Princess is the smartest among the three of them. Graduated management within three and a half years. After graduation, he was accepted to work at one of the big companies in Jakarta. But after working for two years decided to quit and set up his own online store and successfully become an entrepreneur until now. While Cia who is the daughter of coal entrepreneurs in Kalimantan lives a more relaxed life than Kiran and Putri. Although clever, Cia chose to enjoy her college life to the maximum and finally graduated in the sixth year.


Kiran herself was actually not as clever as Princess and Cia. He was given the gift of diligence by God. Make him do it all quickly and wholeheartedly. This earned him a scholarship of almost three years at the University before Kiran decided to work in his final year of college. After graduation, he remained working at the same place while seeking the admissions information of the Public Servant.


"But now it's done Cia"


"Udah. You both have to be there in October. Do not reason busy and macem-macem. Don't call me best friend if you don't come to my graduation" threatened Cia.


"OK" replied Kiran and the Princess almost simultaneously.


"Yes. Aunty bought you batik clothes. Outer like the same bakpia what else is it"


"Aseek. Nook to your house. I also want to hear the story of Auntie's honeymoon how. Did they go home with the seed that was in your Aunt's belly?"


Cia's curiosity, like this, troubles Kiran and the Princess as long as they are friends. For a problem like this, Cia was really quick to catch.


"You ask yourself"


The three best friends go to aunt Kiran's house in Cia's car. The Princess' car was forced to be left at the cafe because Aunt Kiran's house was in a crowded street alley. There's no parking. Another if the three of them ride a motorcycle like Kiran. They were up to the time when Aunt Kiran was busy cleaning up the luggage from Jogja.


"Auntie!!!" cia exclaimed from outside the house surprising Aunt Kiran.


"You came! Here. Aunt brought me some souvenirs"


"Kalo Cia needs more Bi stories. How was Bibi's first malem in Jogja?"


"Ciaaaa"


Kiran and the Princess shook their heads at Cia's unceremonious question.


"It's okay, Bi, Cia asked"


"Duhhh Cia, it's a company secret"


Cia seemed disappointed to hear Aunt's refusal. But could do nothing because Uncle came to bring tea for all of them. While Princess and Cia are busy hearing Auntie's story, Kiran walks into her room and sees the suitcase on the bed. Everything is ready for his departure to Malang tomorrow afternoon. He should feel sad because he had to leave Aunt who had been raising him in place of mother. But now Kiran is happy not to leave her aunt alone in this house. The house that bears witness to their struggles as both Aunt and nephew in the capital.


"You bring clothes. Uncle will send the rest through the package. Let you not bother carrying it" said Kiran's new uncle who appeared in front of her room.


"Yes, uncle. Please yes!"


"Yes. Don't forget the drugs your aunt bought this morning on the table"


After pointing to the top of the dressing table, Uncle Joni went to the kitchen. Looks like preparing to make some food. Kiran smiled opening the plastic bag containing the medicines purchased by her aunt and began to arrange everything in the suitcase. While the other clothes began to be included in the cardboard.just one large cardboard containing clothes and equipment. Because Kiran wasn't too happy to buy anything for him. He prefers to save and save money for sudden needs.


Finally everything was ready and Kiran managed to finish everything in just a few minutes. His two best friends who followed into the room suddenly showed sad faces, making him feel guilty.


"And you can come to Malang. I can also go back to Jakarta once every two months"


"Yes"


The three of them hugged as if they did not want to separate from each other. But this is life. Although they are very close to SMP, it will eventually separate because of their respective jobs and lives.The inevitable thing finally comes as well and forces them apart from each other.
