"Sister Farash?!" Alea turned her chair to face the man who was already standing right at her doorstep.
With a clumsy movement he continued his activities cleaning the workbench and tidying up the items he would bring home.
"What are you talking about, brother?" aela asked, throwing a smile.
"I'll take you home. Let's find a nice cafe or hangout to talk to,"
"Sorry, I can't. I have to go straight home" Alea replied stammeringly.
The confused girl had to give what reason for Farash to be able to understand the situation. He just wants to go home right now. Rest his body and mind. He also did not want if anyone saw and re-create gossip between him and Farash. Plus the ultimatum that Ravka delivered was ringing in his head.
"There really is a need what are you in a hurry? After all from yesterday you always dodged whenever I wanted to drive you home. What are you really hiding?"
"Sorry Brother, I can't explain it right now with you. But I promise, I'll find a good time so I can talk to you" Alea again threw a warm smile. Hopefully that way Farash can understand it and no longer urge him.
"Well, then let's just talk here. It just so happened that there was no one else in the room. So there's no reason for you not to answer my question,"
"Can we talk next time?" Alea began to feel uneasy about it as Farash continued to urge her.
However, it will be very difficult to convince the man if he knows the real incident. It could be that Farash will be angry and blame his parents. Alea wouldn't want that until it happened. He should talk about this matter slowly. It's just, now's not the right time. His head was already messed with the strangeness of Ravka today.
"Nothing next time. I want you to answer my question now" Farash said firmly. "I'll just go to the point. What is your relationship with Mr Ravka?"
"So why is it that suddenly?"
"Al, Mr. Ravka's attitude towards you already indicates that there is something between you,"
"Sister, please don't talk about this right now,"
"Al, I need to know if you're related to Mr Ravka? Do you know how I always try to get back to Jakarta? It's all for your sake, Al," Farash began to raise his tone that sounded almost like despair.
"Sister...." Alea could not continue his words. He was confused as to how to respond to this man before him.
"I regret many years of my time wasted without you" Farash's eyes reflected deeply regret.
"So please stop, please,"
"This time you can't stop me, Al. I've sacrificed enough to hold back my feelings for you. I've been trying it all this time. But it's all for nothing, I still love you," Farash said with all his feelings.
Alea was glued to her place. His heart trembled violently upon hearing Farash's confession. Undeniably, he had also felt the same way many years ago. But he realized his position and suppressed that feeling as deeply as possible. Trying to throw away his dreams. Until finally he can convince himself that his love for Farash is only limited to the love of his brother. No more than that.
However, Farash's confession this time shook his heart. It evokes old memories stored deep inside. Imagine if this had happened years ago, it might not have been the story of his life.
"Sister, did you forget? we are brothers. Your love is the same I'm no different than your love is the same Kania. I'm...."
"But we are brothers. That's why Uncle and Aunt are always trying to stay away from us. Because they don't want us to cross the line,"
"You don't have to defend my parents anymore. From the beginning, they were not being fair to you. There is no blood relationship between us that can prevent me from loving you. Our parents are only half-siblings. Among them there is no blood relation, what else are we. So there's no harm in me loving you" Farash said confidently in both eyes.
Highlight the eyes that made Alea gamang. Just this time Farash bravely said his feelings plainly. Once upon a time the young man tried to express his feelings implicitly. However, Alea realized her position and broke the hearts of the two of them with her refusal. But this time Farash looks different. He looks mature and is more sure of his own feelings.
"Sorry Brother, but I don't love you," Alea replied with quivering lips.
"I know you're lying. Kania told me from a year ago your true feelings. That's why I'm here now. Back to Jakarta just for you,"
But it's not the same as it was a year ago, brother. How am I supposed to tell you? - Alea could only bite her lip in response to Farash's statement.
A nervous feeling ambushed him. He can't be lost in the shadow of the past. It's not the same anymore. He is now married and must take care of the heart only for someone who deserves it. A person who is religiously valid to have it completely without being divided, including his heart.
For a long time they were silent with their thoughts. Until a voice made Alea jump in shock.
"Alea, it's time to get home from work. Let's go home now" Ravka said with an emphasis on each word.
"But Mas, I..."
"I say now," said Ravka firmly breaking Alea's mouth instantly.
The young man clenched his jaw until his teeth clashed in there. Highlight his eyes rained sharply right towards the two Farash eyeballs. It was as if a wolf was marking his territory.
He passed Farash just like that until he nudged the man's shoulder. He pulled Alea's arm and carried the girl away from Farash. Alea immediately pulled her bag over the table and followed Ravka's steps. The girl turned her face to look at Farash. Sick eyes were caught by Alea adorning the face of a man who had once ravaged his heart. He could not leave Farash without explanation. But Ravka didn't give him a chance.
"Shhh...." Alea grimaced as Ravka's hand gripped her arm.
The young man's broad and fast steps, were also enough to make Alea tired to compensate. So there was no pause for Alea to think of Farash still in his place. He turned his gaze to Ravka who continued walking with an aura of anger that could penetrate into Alea's heart. Sending a alert signal inside the girl.
