DISTURBING NEIGHBORS
35. Antagonist

"So, since when, brother?"

Cean, who had been looking straight at the expanse of grass in front of him, now turned his head to find the serious face of Rion who was questioning him.

"Since when did Big Brother realize that Neska was no longer a child whom Brother considered a sister?"

"...."

"Since when did you realize that you liked him?"

Somehow, hearing Rion's trembling voice, Cean slipped. At the moment, Cean knows that sympathy for his brother is at stake.

Rion, too, was at war with himself. Between giving up Neska for her brother, or instead staying firm on his commitment that really seriously the girl.

"Kakak ... liked Neska a long time ago, but she used to only think of Big Brother as sister."

"Have you?" a skeptic appeared at the corner of Rion's lips. "So, this means that Brother has admitted that now you like Neska more than just considering her a sister?" reworked.

"Hm ..." Cean nodded. "Either since when did the way Sister's view of Neska change. Sorry," he said bluntly.

Rion smiled bitterly, he shook his head faintly. I don't know what he's feeling right now for Cean's honesty. There was a wound that could not be expressed, as well as a stabbing pain in his heart. How could he possibly compete with his own brother? Plus, Neska who was from the beginning liked the Big Brother rather than him. Did Rion choose to give up now?

"Okay, so, what do you want in the future? You know, right, me and Neska-"

"So I'm going with Neska, Dek!" cut Cean, somehow this time he was selfish and could not just sacrifice his feelings.

"Sister!" Rion got up from his seat, he exclaimed. His eyes turned red with an angry look that emanated. "Neska's my girlfriend, sister. Back off, and undo brother's intention of snatching it from me!" pep it emotionally.

Cean is more mature, can handle the situation better, he looks much calmer than the explosive Rion. Of course, this is Rion who is scared because he is afraid of his own being captured. Instead, Cean was the one in the position of the attacker.

"Don't tell me you're afraid Neska would prefer Big Brother" Cean said. There was a stark tone in that ha speech, and Rion spontaneously snorted when he heard it.

Cean himself felt guilty actually, he was unable to say anything that would hurt Rion like this. But, Cean thought it better to be frank than later he would stab Rion in the back.

In reality, Cean does want Neska more than anything. Even he was willing to fly to Singapore, just for the sake of being able to stare at the innocent face of the girl, when he could have made a video call, but he chose to go straight to.

"I don't understand the same way Big Brother thinks! From the beginning, I told you I wanted to get close to Neska and Brother didn't forbid it." Rion's voice was low but full of emphasis.

Cean sniffed his shoulders, looking very irritating at the sight of his sister.

"Yes, my sister did not forbid it, because at that time my sister did not know everything would be this way. And now, it's time you didn't have to ban Brother either."

"Iniquity," decak Rion increasingly unhappy.

"Neska's still free to vote, Deck. She's not your wife yet."

So, here Rion was convinced that his brother would never budge on him - these things. Rion chose to leave Cean, rather than continue to urge him to abandon that intention.

In the eyes of Rion now, Cean has been transformed into an antagonist in his life, but in addition to this problem factor, Cean is still his best brother. Rion will not forget his kindness and affection for Cean just because of this, of course.

Cean too, maybe now Rion is his rival in love, but the young man is still his only brother. He also loved Rion despite the taste problems between them.

In conclusion, the two will compete healthy with each other. There is no need to use sneaky ways, because who Neska will choose will be the winner.

However, their feelings are also not a match looking for who the champion is.

Rion and Cean both hope Neska will get the best. Of course the best according to Rion is himself and not Cean. So does Cean, he feels much better for the girl, even though she used to be a wok-ngan.

...***...

Aura and Neska arrived at a famous salon that Aura frequented when going to Singapore. Unexpectedly, there they met Sheila who had just finished nail care.

"Sir Aura?"

"Silva ..."

"Are you here too?" sheila asked, the girl then glanced at Neska who was standing beside Aura, she looked at him dislikefully. Apparently, in addition to dating Rion, apparently Neska was also close to Aura and it looked annoying to her.

"Yes, didn't Kak Jeno tell you that you're in Singapore?"

"No, Brother."

Sheila glanced back at Neska. "Don't bring him here too?" tanyakanya.

Aura nodded, while Neska could only remain silent with her mouth tightly clenched, Neska did not know what to do with Sheila who always looked sarcastic to her.

"This is Neska, Rion's girlfriend," Aura said.

"Udah know," Sheila replied as she clucked softly, obviously she was not interested in the review about Neska.

"Have you finished your treatment?"

"Udah, Brother."

Sheila was actually still willing to approach Aura and take the girl's heart, but Aura's subsequent remarks - actually made Sheila have to go from there, even though Aura actually did not intend to expel her.

"Yes, you go home carefully, Sheil ..."

Sheila finally nodded even though her heart's desire was not to go home so soon. He moved with a feeling of unwillingness.

"Come, Nes ..."

There was a feeling of envy in Sheila's heart when seeing Neska close to Aura, they also looked familiar.

Like Sheila, Aura introduced Neska to the salon workers she knew. Aura also asked the workers there to do a similar hair treatment between her and Neska.

"Why, Nes?"

"Sheila is .. Deket really the same family Brother?"

Although Neska had heard from Rion that Sheila was her best friend since childhood - but she remained curious and curious about the girl from Aura's sight.

Instead of answering Neska's question, Aura asked back because she also wanted to know since when Sheila knew the girl who came with her today.

"Oh, yeah, you knew each other before, huh? Sheila also said she knew .. if you're Rion's girlfriend."

"Yesterday we accidentally met at the Mall, continue to be known as Rion, Brother."

Aura smiled in her upturned position - for now her hair was being washed.

"Sheila's Om Beno's youngest child with Aunt Jenifer. Well, Om Beno is Papa's best friend. So, if you say deket, yes deket, anyway."

"Oh, if that's Rion also had time to tell the same story I, anyway, Brother."

"Keep, you want to know which one else?" ask Aura. He understands that sometimes we as women have a considerable curiosity.

"Well, is that a hell of a deck?" ask Neska then.

"Ehm, if you mean Rion with Sheila, yes they are deket anyway .. Since Kindergarten, Elementary School to Junior High, they go to school in the same place. Wh why? What did you think after meeting Sheila?" search Aura.

Neska bit her lips, she hesitated to speak her thoughts to Aura. He doesn't dare to say it now.

"If from my vision, Sheila was just having a crush on Rion." The aura said as if it could know the contents of Neska's head only.

"Eh?" Neska was surprised, but Aura's speech really made her curiosity answered.

"You don't have to be jealous. Because, from Rion's side, I'm sure she's not interested in Sheila and just think of Sheila as her best friend. After all, if she wanted to be with Sheila, she wouldn't be the same as you right now, would she?"

"Ehm, I ..."

"I can see that Rion is the same as you, Nes. So, don't disappoint my sister, yes," said Aura commemorating Neska with her soft voice.

Neska grimaced, even she had already hurt Rion so far. And as for her curiosity about Sheila, Neska hoped that Rion would turn to the girl instead of staying with her. Doesn't Sheila want Rion more than she does? So, Neska wanted to know about this not because she was jealous, but she wanted to release Rion for Sheila if it was the girl who was the best for Rion, so to speak.

"You're lucky, Nes. Rion loves you. Sometimes we are better off with those who love us than with those we love."

Neska's vertical reflexes, she shifted a bit of her body to be able to stare at Aura's face from the side.

"... loving is sick, being loved is much more fun," Aura added later.

"According to Brother, is it?" neska Response.

"Yes." Yeah."

"If it's your own brother?" Neska took a slow breath. "I'm sorry if I wanted to know about my brother" he said.

Aura chuckled at a glance. "I'm not interested in feeling. I never dated. You believe?" he said while now also staring at Neska.

"Seriously?"

"Yes, I saw the girls Cean was looking for just to play with, so I closed myself to it. Like I said, I think loving is sick, just like those girls. Didn't they expect more but the fall was played with because it wasn't loved?"

Neska was flabbergasted in disbelief, so Aura did not believe in love because of the contribution of her twin sister? Cean is clearly guilty here. And so it's true, if Cean is a playboy? Aura's answer seemed to be a slap for Neska who actually preferred Cean rather than Rion who sincerely loved her.

"So, you're not interested in getting married?" neska asked after letting her thoughts go regarding Cean and Rion.

The aura sniffed the shoulders. "Yes, but I don't know. I go with the flow. Well, it just so happens that I'm now in the matchmaking stage with Jeno" she explained.

"Jeno?" reset Neska.

"Hmm, Jeno is Sheila's sister. Om Beno's son number 2."

"Huh?" Neska gawking.

"So, now you know why I said that I just want to do it. If you're lucky, maybe I can open my heart to him because he said Jeno is interested in me for a long time," he said.

...****...

Finished with the activities in the salon, Aura and Neska finally came out of the area. They were surprised by the presence of a young man they knew so well. Rion is seen waiting in the waiting room in front of the Salon lobby.

"Rion's? Why?" ask Neska in shock.

"You pick you up" said Rion smiling as he rubbed his own nape.

Rion noticed Neska who was already with a new appearance, the girl cut a bit of hair and stained it with brown color. Neska looked more mature even though her face remained cute. Inwardly, he praised the girl. Yes, Neska is the girl, not someone else.

"Keep, what about Aura?" ask Neska.

"Sir Aura is an adult, Nes, can go home alone."

Aura nodded at her sister's speech. "I told Rion we're here, Nes. It's okay, you go home with Rion. I have an appointment too" he replied.

"Hmm, is it okay, brother?"

"It's okay .. You guys have fun, yeah." Aura also sauntered first, leaving Neska and Rion still behind her body.
