Don't (Blame) Love
WILL DIE 13

"Yes, it's possible that Berlyn refused to come along because she didn't want to miss a lesson. Yeah, right, Berlyn?" said Alex who happened to pick me up the girl.

While Berlyn, he only nodded many times while showing his best smile as a gesture of his answer.

Not long after, Adriel emerged from behind the back door and ran up to Berlyn, and the boy asked Berlyn to play into the backyard.

"Berryn! Apparently you're the one who came? who do I think. will you come with me?" haggle the boy.

Without a second thought, the girl escaped Alex's lap and ran towards Adriel.

"You know what we want to play?" adriel asked, walking backwards holding Berlyn's hand.

The girl shakes her head. Obviously he doesn't know. Just so Adriel appeared and suddenly asked like that.

But, at least he was lucky because Berlyn his son was calm and gentle. The one who was with her was Clarissa. The existing spray.

"I made a little palace for us, tara... " adriel cheerfully said as she showed the back yard chair she decorated with flowers on the backrest and the right left side of the chair itself. More like a bridal chair, anyway.

Berlyn, who loved flowers, was amazed to the point that the girl covered her mouth with her left hand.

"Hows it? Do you like it, this?" adriel asked with a smile to see Berlyn, who was still holding her hand.

"Yes" the boy replied excitedly, with sparkling eyes radiating happiness.

"Thank God if you like. So, it's not in vain that I worked hard for this. Berlyn, let's sit there, I'm the king, and you're the queen" she said

Adriel again. While wiping the sweat on his forehead.

the two children were sitting there, their eyes looking straight ahead with a smile, and occasionally looking at each other.

While inside the house, Al and Queen immediately say goodbye to Alex and Zahara.However, they must return soon, to

preparing Berlyn's everyday clothes, uniforms, and other school supplies.

let the children stay at their home. Even if Bilqis misses Berlyn, there is still a place. Moreover, the teenager prefers to sleep one room with Berlyn in order to read dongen. So, homeowners do not have to bother preparing many rooms.

"Yes, we say yes, Za. Sorry in advance if we bother you a lot" said Queen. Because it.

however, Zahara has a one-year-old baby and a child of that age is active. Terbih, their son, Lytfi now

it has started to be able to walk, so, should give extra supervision.

"Already, Queen. To fellow brothers do not feel awkward and not so good. It's just a light thing. Uncompared

with you taking care of Adriel first" Zahara said.

"Now, don't bring the past. We are met by God not by chance. But, it has been arranged and will need each other later" said Queen.

"Yes, you're right. You two go home alone, what brings Berlyn? Mending, just let him be here with Adriel" Alex proposes.

"Let me ask him first. Where is he now?" asked Queen while circulating her gaze throughout the living room until she ate.

"He was in the backyard with Adriel earlier, it seemed," Zahara replied.

"You go there! Ask her. If he wants to stay, don't be forced to come along. Let him here" Alex said.

Queen looked at Al, then the two walked back to look for her daughter.

Arriving there, the two men stopped their steps as children. Both of them quietly watched Berlyn and Adriel while trying not to laugh. But, in fact, they still could not hold back their laughter. They felt funny with the two boys sitting side by side on a white chair that had been decorated with flowers like a wedding chair.

"You think they're funny, aren't they Al?" ask Queen lirih.

"Looks, yeah. Did we ever play that way, baby?"

"No," Queen replied briefly and to the point.

"How will they be if they are both grown-ups?"

"No problem. If that happens, then it means that we have been nurturing prospective daughters-in-law

we, Al," replied Queen.

"Yes, you're right. Yeah, let's go get Berlyn, "take Al.

The queen nodded and the two walked up to them and called out, The little girl.

"Berlyn, you're coming home with us, aren't you? Tomorrow, go home to school mama and papa will take you here," Queen asked her daughter who was a henchman sitting with Adriel without a word.

The girl directed her gaze at her parents and then gestured, 'If I, will still be ushered back here tomorrow, why would I come with you?'

"So, you're just gonna stay here, okay?" asked Al who was crouching while hugging his daughter.

The girl smiled while nodding.

"Alright if you want to be here. We go first, okay? Be good here don't be naughty, be a obedient kid, okay?"

al said as he stroked his daughter's head and kissed her forehead, followed by Queen and

both left them in the backyard.

"Alex, Sahara. We put them here first, huh? Berlyn didn't want to come" Queen said as the two arrived

back in the living room.

"You don't have to worry, it doesn't matter that they're here" Zahara replied.

Finally Al and Queen say goodbye and will return later to deliver Berlyn's school clothes and equipment.

"It's the first time we're going to walk without taking Berlyn" Al said as they walked down the street. His right hand held the steering wheel, while the man's left hand held Queen's.

"You're right. I didn't think he could think that far. Very mature, " replied Queen.

Al just silently did not answer. lifted the hand of Queen and he kissed several times.he only satin, if Clarissa is much more than that. It's just, Al didn't want to tell it either, did he? If he had spoken, Queen would have asked such a question. But, without saying anything, people were also able to judge. Simply looking at what he did and he got at the age of just ten years old was like a thirties.

***

Three days later, Berlyn lives in Alex and Zahara's house. Between him and Adriel, too, was close.

Maybe it's time he started acting. Rather than Berlyn feeling used to her sister and the two falling in love.

He is considered a third party who damages his sister's relationship later if the two boys are both mature and understanding

will each feel.

"Berlyn, Axel's brother will go to Jogja. Do you want to come with me?" axel asked when he found

Berlyn sat alone in the living room. He was teaching on campus, while his aunt with Lutfi was in the middle

pick up Adriel school.

The girl stared fixedly with her round eyes at Axel. It looks like he is thinking. Uninterruptedly

long ago, he started speaking sign language which meant more or less, 'Is it just us? Brother Adriel's not coming?'

"Yes, just the two of us. I'll take you to the tomb of Chandra and Dian's grandmother first. After that, we'll go for a walk, how?"

axel softly said and showed his smile.

But, it didn't seem like it made Berlyn satisfied with the answer. He is still searching with various questions. Wearable

sign language of course. 'Why just the two of us? Is it not kasian if Adriel is not invited?'

"Actually Axel's sister also wanted to invite him, dear Berlyn. But he's gonna have a class and a week of basketball practice.

You know that, right? Whereas if not Sunday night, Axel will not have time," replied Axel with a tone of pretentious at the beginning

expect understanding and willingness from Berlyn.

But the girl did not answer. He seemed to be thinking a little and full of thought. Axel was also impatient.

"How's? Are you willing to accompany Axel's sister, Lyn?" ask the teenager.

Hearing the words Lyn said from Axel, made the girl remember her twin sister who called her by

alin's favorite name. Finally, he nodded and agreed.

"Okay, thank you, honey. Later there, I promise I'll buy you whatever you want after Axel's business is done, okay?"

Again, the girl smiled and nodded.

Seeing Berlyn's smile that looked cute and adorable, Axel could not bear to kiss the girl who was now his age

almost eleven years. While Berlyn is still innocent, and doesn't know anything, he also returns Axel's kiss.so, after Axel

kissing Berlyn's left cheek, he gets a kiss on her right cheek. Both felt it was breakeven and laughed at each other.

"You go into the room. Get ready! Axel's brother will ask permission to om and aunt first, how?" axel's proposal.

Berlyn agreed and obeyed the orders of the man twelve years her senior.

After no longer seeing Berlyn's back, Axel gave up his phone and called him. He knows, here if he

wanting to invite Adriel or Berlyn is not just enough permission with one person only. But, because of om and tantenya

being in a different place, he also had to ask for permission on his first omnya more important. Aunty can speak directly. Maybe we will be home soon too.

"Hello. Xell! What's up?" answer Alex from across the street.

"Om, I'm going to Jogja this afternoon. Can I take Berlyn? All walks. Promise tomorrow we will be back soon if we have," he said firmly.

Alex was silent, he did not give an answer. But, Axel quickly looked for a gap. He was always afraid of her

think bad about it. because, in the news of many cases of pedophiles. He was worried that he had a bad attitude towards him and would be immoral to this ten-year-old boy.

"At first I thought I would invite Adriel and Bilqis. But, he was facing a smester replay.

While Adriel, he will have a private tutoring schedule and tomorrow morning he tutored basketball. Can't, Om."

"Yes already. Please take good care of him because both his parents have entrusted him to om and aunt. Don't let anything happen to him" Alex replied in the end.

"Well, Om. it looks like aunty has arrived. I told her first, huh?" axel. Then the call was diachri, and he clenched his hand up and pulled it down while cheering cheerfully but, shrewdly, "yes," he said full of victory.

"Berryn! where are you? Look, what did I bring?" adriel shouted from outside while running.

Axel quietly saw his sister who every day always has a small gift for the girl of his heart. There was something he brought.

Starting from bandana, bando, hat, and this time he brought a hair clip. Others may think their relationship is that close

just a brother because from a small together like Berlyn and Bilqis. But not with Axel's response.

Therefore, he had to immediately take a stand before Berlyn rejected him and just felt comfortable with his sister. Especially from the age factor the difference is also very far. Axel is more suitable so his omnya indeed. But, aren't today many girls who love om-om more?

Shortly afterwards, Adriel came out of Berlyn's room and asked her, "Sister, do you and Berlyn want to go to Jogja now?"

"Yes, you're home, right? You will have tutoring at half-seven. Continues basketball practice tomorrow, right?"

"Eeemh... I can't come, dong? Yeah, it's okay, but, buy me the best remote car there, which can turn into

robots are like in transformers" the boy said innocently.

"Well," Axel answered easily, Because not facing his sister's whining alone is already a miracle. Because all this time, he likes to play with Berlyn and wants to always come wherever Berlyn goes. Sook sweet when both are babies. Inner Axel.

"You want to go to Jogja, Xel?" asked Zahara who happened to hear the conversation of the two of his fathers.

"Yes, Aunt. I'll take Berlyn. It's okay, right?"

"Have your permission?"

"Here he was ngizinin, how was Te."

"well, if that's the case, you be careful" Zahara said.

after getting permission from om and his aunt, the teenager just went into his room to prepare.
