DEVANYE. STILL LOVING YOU
269

Tiara's smile grew from earlier, she had forgotten her fear of planes. Now they are on their way home.

"It's so nice today?" gio asked with a smile on his lips. Tiara turned towards her husband and leaned her head on Gio's shoulder.

"I'm happy, G. I can't wait to see you soon." Tiara was endlessly developing a smile on her aunt. Gio was happy to see his wife. He stroked Tiara's head and kissed Tiara's forehead gently.

"Thank you, G."

"For?"

"For everything," Tiara replied, she brought herself closer to Gio's body.

"I have to thank you, you are the source of my happiness, I should make you happy too."

Heru who heard the words of his superior smiled thinly. He was very happy to see the togetherness of Gio and also Tiara like this. Heru drove his vehicle at a constant speed towards the house of Tiara.

After a long journey, Tiara finally reached home. He could not wait to meet with his mother, until when the car stopped in the garage he opened the car door before Heru could run to open it.

"He was so excited," Gio told Heru, Heru only nodded in response. It was not strange for Gio with such a Heru answer. The two of them entered the house with their own luggage.

"Mother, I'm home!" Tiara shouted after opening the door of the house. He was silent when he saw someone there, sitting quietly with one leg crossed over the other. A young woman sat next to him. Looks foreign because Tiara never met the young woman.

The man stood up with an expanding smile on his lips.

"Welcome, my sister. Welcome back home."

Tiara was stunned, she thought she was just wrong to see, but she wasn't. It´s real. His brother has returned? How could?

"You don't want to go and hug your brother?" ask the voice next to him. Tiara turned her head and found Gio smiling at her, while Heru just kept silent behind Gio.

"Ara, are you just gonna stay there?" ask Ridwan now. Tiara turned her gaze in disbelief. Ridwan smiled at him and spread both hands.

Tiara quickly ran towards Ridwan and hit the thin body of the man hard. Almost strayed if Ridwan was not strong enough to hold his sister's body. Tiara cried sobbing in her brother's arms. Ridwan was now moved by the warm treatment of his sister. He stroked Tiara's head affectionately and longingly. The guilt he remembered when he made a mistake in the past.

"I miss you so much, brother. Why haven't you been home for so long?" ask Tiara.

"Hey I haven't been home for a long time, but have we met too not too long ago? You remember when you got married, I came by that time." Ridwan said with a twitch. Tiara was no longer angry with him. Maybe, and hopefully.

"That's been a long time. Why are you coming home? If you come home just to go again, you better not go home!" tiara shouted furiously, but she was unwilling to let go of her embrace from her brother's body. His longing for Ridwan is huge. He was no longer angry after hearing the reason Ridwan did not want to go home. Indeed the man was guilty and he had to take responsibility with the woman.

Tiara glanced towards the sofa, a skinny girl with a slightly deformed face on her cheeks was smiling towards him. Next to the girl was a stick.

"Sister, who is she" Tiara asked as she looked at her brother. "Is she the girl you mean?" ask Tiara again. Ridwan nodded slowly.

"Yes. He's the one I have to take care of from now on. Do you mind if you have a sister-in-law younger than you?" asked Ridwan with a ruckus.

Tiara looked at her brother sharply. "You want to marry her?" tiara didn't believe it. Ridwan nodded back.

"He's not as pretty as the snake woman. I'm not sure if what I'm hugging is really my brother," said Tiara, who made Ridwan stretch his arms and pat Tiara on the forehead.

"What do you think I am? I used to be blind for love, and now I'm blind for that, but now I'm happy. It's so good to know him."

"You sure you accept him out of love? Not because you feel sorry for him and also a sense of responsibility for him you want to marry him? It will make him hurt" Tiara whispered to Ridwan.

"No. If you think you like him, then be happy. But you also have to remember me and my mother. Don't do the same thing again as before" Tiara said. Ridwan smiled as he shook his head.

"will not. I have a good sister-in-law and I also now have a steady job with a decent salary," said Ridwan made Tiara frown.

"meaning?" tiara asked puzzledly, She turned her eyes to Gio.

"I'll meet my mother. I miss mom's cooking." Gio who was stared at in such a way chose to dodge. He did not want to interfere with this brother sister's talk. With wide strides Gio was already close to the kitchen door.

"Would you sit down or stand up? I'm tired if you want to stand still." Ridwan said with a amused smile.

"What does this mean? Did you put on a big-paying job with my husband?" tiara asked after sitting herself in the chair in front of her brother.

"You don't want to get acquainted with your future sister-in-law?" Ridwan shifted the subject. He smiled and grabbed the skinny body of his future wife.

"Eh yes. I'm Tiara, what's your name?" tiara asked as she thrust her right hand at the skinny girl.

"I'm Nita." she replied as she welcomed Tiara's hand. Tiara was stunned by the girl's smile. It was so sweet with a shuffled tooth that it seemed to pop when he smiled. So sweet.

"I'm happy if it's true that my brother will marry you. If he's anything, just give him poison!"" tiara's words made Nita laugh a little, she covered her mouth with one hand. Looks like the scars are there. It was clearly seen by Tiara.

Nita realized which way Tiara's gaze was, she immediately lowered her hand and pulled her long sleeves to cover up that very obvious scar.

Ridwan looked at Nita's sad face, this girl must be embarrassed by the scar she had inflicted on her. Ridwan tightened his arm around Nita's waist.

"Are you trying to kill me?" asked Ridwan who made Tiara laugh.

"Yes, you're a man to look up to."

"Excession! I'm your brother, you dropped my pride in front of your future sister-in-law!" sulk Ridwan with a little sulking.

"Oh yeah. Big brother didn't threaten my husband to give me a job with a big paycheck, did he?" tiara asked probing, she tried to dilute this awkward atmosphere by asking her brother. Ridwan chuckled at his sister's accusations.

"You hear that, honey? I'm in my brother's eyes just a bad guy. You know how this feels in my heart? It hurts!" Ridwan complained with a face made to be clear, not forgetting with his hand that stroked his chest and slightly patted it. Ridwan put his forehead on Nita's shoulder. Nita only laughed until her eyes narrowed.

"She was indeed a person who had been evil to us, I just anticipated it. I don't want him cheating anymore." Tiara folded her hands in front of her chest. Increasingly makes Nita chuckle because of the actions of this cute sister.

"No, I'm not cheating anymore. It was your husband who complained to me. You look sad every day, and he can't stand your attitude. You don't want to tell me what I'm feeling, but he knows what you're thinking. So he came to me and asked me to work in one of his places and manage it here. He also asked me to keep mom back. In exchange, he will also help treat Nita. And he did not break his promise. He made this Nitaku wake up from his long slumber." Ridwan looked at Nita with love. He pulled Nita's hand to kiss her on the back of the girl's hand, making Nita smile in embarrassment and blush on both cheeks.

"really? But Gio said nothing to me. I don't know at all." Tiara stared in disbelief at her brother and then looked towards the kitchen where Gio's body followed her mother and also Beautiful, seemed to be asking for food.

"That's samimu. He's very kind. I ask if there's anything, you tell your husband. He felt very sorry when he told me. Looks very sad."

Tiara was silent at her brother's words. She could not believe what her brother said and also did not believe what Gio did for her.

Does Gio really feel that way?

Tiara felt guilty towards her husband. He tried not to make Gio feel any trouble by harboring all alone. He thought it would make things better, but it turned out to be wrong. He instead made Gio feel sad and also guilty for having kept him away from mother.

Tiara's eyes are now beginning to water. She was very happy to be with her husband too. Gio, who was enjoying the food in his hands in the kitchen, was clearly seen because the kitchen was straight with Tiara's seat now.

"Hey, now you can relax, can't you stay with your husband there? Don't worry about me anymore, other than Beautiful, there's me, and Nita's here." Ridwan straightened himself, and took Tiara's hand to handle it. Tiara nodded and rubbed the tear-filled stau on her cheek.
