#48 Devin's Sister
“Hey, let's get out don't stay in the room. Hanan also just came home, right, time not kangen same father mother also?” said Mr. Indra while poking his head from behind the door, on his two children who were busy chatting.
The girl whose full name is Elhanan Krisantus straightened her seat and looked at the sister who immediately got out of bed, “Hehe sorry sir, if chatting has already stuck to the mattress like to forget time. Especially the same adek.” he said then grinned wide.
“Padahan Devin again the same story brother Anan..” said the slow guy who made Mr. Indra sigh and then smiled thinly.
Devin set foot following her brother to the living room where Claudia had sat down while compiling boxes of cakes brought by Elhanan as souvenirs from the city where she was studying.
“Sini sat down,” alerted Mr. Indra and the two children according, they threw themselves into the carpet below and Elhanan took a piece of bread roll that his mother served on the plate.
“So how is the story you can come home late, Nan? Mother until panicked because you can not be contacted loh.” said Mrs Claudia, while the one asked accelerated her chewing so that she could immediately answer.
“The flight schedule was delayed, Mom. Anan want to tell you uh it turns out that Anan's cellphone battery runs out to death completely, the charger is in the bag so it will be really complicated to want to remove his belongings.” explained the girl then wiped the corner of her lips.
“Tadi had wanted to be followed by Devin to the airport when he returned from school, uh you have arrived first.” said Mr. Indra.
Elhanan rubbed the sister's head with anxiety, “She ni loh from yesterday ngespam I continue in chat, really noisy he said kangen. Pas I got even diem-diem aja.” he said.
“What the hell, Brother..” said Devin then rebelled so that his brother let go of his hand.
“Oh yes, I heard you already want to go back again huh?” hanan asked suddenly which made Devin nod in embarrassment.
The girl whose hair was painted blonde hugged Devin with anxiety, “Iiii finally, sister happy deh. Will we dance cover together? Sister is also long time no longer nari.”
“Adek next month to participate in the competition, you join him.” sahut bu Claudia who makes the eyes of the youngest princess sparkle.
Ever since the sister had ‘ makap’ and decided to stop dancing, the girl also felt burdened to see it. Though seeing Devin dance is one of his favorite things all along, the guy looks glowing and alive. So what his mother told him was very good news.
The youngest was silent before finally nodding in agreement, actually he was very happy because Elhanan went home. She felt quite lonely since her brother had wandered to another city to attend college, Indra and Claudia knew very well how excited Devin was when he heard the news of his return.
“Eum, Devin also has a new friend..” he said in a soft voice even though Elhanan can still hear it clearly, the girl reluctantly tightened her embrace.
“So I'm very proud of Devin, my brother has been worried that you will ansos continue to grow up later.” he said.
Devin let go of his brother's embrace slowly, “I've grown up know, Kak.” he said that makes his brother and both parents laugh because for them the boy was still like an adorable child.
Actually when he was a child, Devin was not a quiet and closed child. He has a lot of close friends and easy to socialize with children his age, also he knows how to establish good relationships with older people because the guy has good manners. It was only the incident during junior high school that incised such great guilt that his personality changed completely.
Elhanan looked at Devin with a big smile, “Dear sister Devin.” he said.
Ms. Claudia turned to her husband and then clasped his hand, “Bapak equally mother also love Devin, dear Hanan.” he said warmly.
Devin closed his reddened face with his hands, he was weak to hear such words from his family or those close to him. If only Sebastian and his friends knew this side of the guy, he would most likely always be seduced by them.
“Hahaha gausah bashful, Deck. The butter until red so, utututu.” goda Elhanan cheerfully.
“Already, Nan. Poor you adek. Now I wonder how your college there is, is it smooth?” sela Bu Claudia who makes the youngest relieved because it is not teased again by the brother.
“Hehe, smoothly kok Bu. Just yeah sometimes like the confusion of cooperation tasks. But Anan is happy, there are also friendly friends because most of them are both regional children. It has been almost two years, Anan did not go home, during the holidays there are also many who nemani.” replied the girl while tucking her hair behind her ears.
Mr. Indra cleared his throat and then secured his sitting position, he also took one roll from the table, “Padalaam father has said that you have difficulty not working is also okay, it is okay, you also do not forbid, but pay attention to yourself as well and do not be forced.” he said in a low voice.
Elhanan nodded, “Anan is fine, sir. Even more comfortable because you can use your own money if you want to buy something. After Anan has grown up, the same father Mother calm aja yaa~” replied.
“If what girlfriend already has, Nan?” chirps mom Claudia who made her daughter speechless.
“Eh?”

“Where?” cherryl asked with his eyes widened, shortly after Sebastian said that in fact the guy had been dating a lot during his stay in the United States.
“Denger, Ryl's. I said I don't think it meant to hurt you but I don't want you to be disappointed one day because I didn't say anything from the beginning. Yesterday I also had a short chat about this same mother and was told to make more stories the same lo from now.” reply the guy with a weak tone.
Cherryl was silent, her brain was still digesting impromptu information that she never expected. All this time the girl never even thought to ask if she was the first one for Sebastian or not. He was too focused on their current relationship.
“So, I'm not the first?” ask her in a very slow voice even the guy will not hear if he does not pay attention to the movement of the lips of the girl.
Sebastian nodded slowly then he grabbed Cherryl's hands and kissed her back gently, “Sorry, if you want to be angry too I don't have a problem. I know maybe for you this is not a trivial problem.” he said.
Cherryl gulped down and turned his gaze to the side, staring at the few people passing by down there as they were both standing on the rooftop. Although maybe for some people something like this is not a big deal, but for him personally who never even felt like having a crush on others before Sebastian, it feels a bit claustrophobic.
“Kalo is dating there, meaning you ever..” said the cherry girl then looked into the sad eyes of the guy.
Somehow Cherryl's little heart really hopes that Sebastian will answer firmly if he never does anything like that, but he just keeps quiet. The girl bit her lower lip and then removed her hand from the guy's grasp.
“Cher—” said Sebastian, trying to grab Cherryl back but the girl suddenly stepped back away from him.
The guy was stunned then he paused his intention, “Sorry, I'm not as good as you thinkin.” he continued.
Cherryl squeezed his hands, trying to hold back the tears that had already accumulated in the eye peluruk. He was really upset, couldn't get angry even if it hurt. The girl had even begun to have difficulty taking a breath.
“Ryl..”
With a trembling hand the girl rubbed the tip of her eyes and forced herself to stand upright, “M-sorry, I need time.”
It was the last sentence Sebastian heard from Cherryl before the girl turned around and ran out of the rooftop area with reddened eyes. Leaving the rabbit-toothed guy with his legs squeezed, he sat on the floor massaging his temple.
“Hhhhh..This is why I used to fear lo, Ryl. Because I'm not a good guy.”
