Just Being a Doll Wife
14. Tell Harven

It's been in the night. A tenement house in a densely populated area.

Harven closed the iron fence that rattled with a loud enough sound. There's rust here and there on that fence. He saw a house that was still pitch black. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Happy muttering, even though he was afraid of being found out earlier. Mei's sister hasn't come home yet, so she thinks. None of the lights are on yet.

The wind slowly blew away the leaves of the orange tree, the only tree in the courtyard of the house. The tree is flowering, small fruit will already be seen partially in the flowers that began to fall.

Tired, why are there so many people today.

Harven stood at the door, smelling his shirt, the tip of his hand, not smelling fried chicken. He muttered slowly to convince himself by kissing her again, that he should wash his clothes immediately so as not to be caught by Merylin. It could be bad if it was discovered he worked part-time after school in a fried chicken shop.

Harven closed the door to the darkness of the living room. Kicking the song if he took off his shoes. Blars! The middle room light suddenly lit up brightly.

“Huaaaa!” The screams from Harven's mouth as the lights of the house lit up screamed loudly. The plastic bag in his hand fell off. Along with him he fell on the floor. “Kak May!” Harven screamed again as he saw who had turned on the lights.

Merilin was sitting at the dining table, the position of the light switch was indeed very close to the range of her hands. The girl who was sitting just laughed at the surprise of her sister.

“Kak May, I almost had a heart attack tofu due to shock!” Harven babbling. Squatting out the plastic bag she was carrying. Fortunately the fried chicken box did not open, the fried chicken survived. “Why dark-eight Kak?” Putting plastic in front of Merylin.

Why did Kak Mei stay in the dark so si, making people worry.

When he saw what was in front of Merylin, there was nothing. There was only his cellphone, whose screen darkened. So Harven couldn't guess what his brother had done in the silence of the night.

“Where are you from? Bring what?” Merilin shifted her hp, grabbed the plastic. Not answering his sister's questions.

“Fried chicken. Sister Mei has eaten.”

“Wahh, my sister brought fried chicken. Good fit, Sister Mei has not eaten. Shower first, while Kak Mei prepare vegetables.”

Although Merylin's answer sounded ordinary, her sister was still filled with question marks.

Merilin smiled then stepped into the kitchen. Harven could hear his brother sigh. She was more and more convinced, that there was something her brother was thinking, but what was it! Because Harven knew, there was too much weight on her brother Merylin's shoulder. Until Harven did not know which part was making his brother dizzy.

Harven grabbed the towel and went inside the bathroom still thinking what was wrong with his older sister. He took a shower not too long. Out with slightly wet hair, the smell of shampoo out. When she shakes her hair.

He took a drink and took it to the table. There are already green stir-fried vegetables and carrots mixed with eggs there. Harven's gaze examined his sister's face again. Her clothes were just like when she left for work. Her hair is ruffled. Kak Mei's hair if it's been all day it will look like a lion that burst out of his pussy.

He hasn't even taken a shower. Usually, Mei's sister also comes home a little night.

It all feels weird to Harven.

A few days every month Merylin is often overtime, especially if the deadline is ahead of the eyes. But other than that, he always came home on time. It's deadline Harven thought, but it doesn't seem. Reply to his question mark-filled heart.

“Kak, why?”

It's out of the ordinary. The Merilin he knew would not show such a worried look. She was the girl who would always cover all sorts of hardships in her life with a smile especially in front of her sister Harven.

“Kak May.” Started to worry. “Why Brother?”

“Dek, If Kak Mei gets married now how?” Merrillin's voice sounded softly, while putting Harven's rice in front of her sister. Harven's frozen. Fear ran all over his fingers.

“Someone invited Kak Mei to get married, what do you think?” Merilin's eyes were soft on seeing her sister.

“Kak Ge invited you to marry?”

Now it was Merilin who froze as her sister called out Serge's name. Wh why? Why did the name mention his sister. He dropped his head on the table. Shame, does everyone know that I like Serge. He had no courage to look up.

Everyone could see Merylin's love for Serge, yes except for her. Serge, who had already regarded Merylin and his family like brothers, had never imagined up to that point. The love between men and women is connected between them.

“Ke, why even discuss Ge.” Merilin still maintained self-esteem. Trying to shake off Harven's suspicions.

“Hei talk ngawur what the hell, have eaten first.” Merilin also ate rice in front of him.

“I will not be that stupid until I do not know Kak, while it is clearly seen in your eyes.” Harven laughed, as his brother's face flushed red from being caught red-handed. Like stealing a neighbor's fruit.

“Hei.”

Merilin grabbed one thigh of fried chicken. Speak quickly.

“But he doesn't know tuh, if I like him.”

“You are both stupid.”

Merilin dropped her head against the table. Talk with your head down.

“You also know what it means, if he never called me a girl.” Harven silently refused to answer, choosing to snatch the chicken. “Suffering once.”

“Because you didn't say so Kak Ge didn't realize it Kak, uh, then who do you want to marry?”

Merilin raised her head quickly, not answering yet. Take the chicken, chew it again. Grabbing his sister's drink, drinking a few sips. His breath went up and down, but he was at a loss as to how to begin explaining it.

“That must not be Kak Ge who invited me to marry.”

“Then married to whom?”

Aaaa, how do I explain it to Harven.

The marriage offered to her was only a contract marriage, she just needed to be a useful doll for her husband. The man will guarantee three things in his life. Paying off the mounting debt that belonged to his father. Guaranteeing the treatment of the mother until healed even provide a home for the mother later. Education is guaranteed for Harven. Three things were offered to him.

Merilin likened herself to standing in a barren desert, and some gave her bottles of water, wheat bread and camels to drive. If he was still sane he would have grabbed it all. Even though what payment will be asked of him is not easy. However, those three things were not something that he could easily refuse. It could be, a whole life just finished he paid off father's debt.

There will never be another chance as good as this.

“There are good men who want to marry Kak Mei.” May will finally start telling the full story.

“Is she as good as Serge?”

Where there might be a man as good as Serge, if there is, do you think I am that lucky, to know two good men at once in this one miserable life of mine. So did Merylin's reply in the heart.

“Kak Ge also knows him, even Kak Ge who bridges us.”

Merylin's bitter voice slashed Harven's heart. The younger brother knew how his older sister kept his feelings deep for a man named Serge.

“If Sister Mei marries him, she will also help with the treatment of mother.” Merilin explained a little, the good things only.

There was a light shining in the distance in Harven's eyes, what a wedding Kak Mei had was different from an older brother who had thrown away his family. Even if Kak Mei gets married, she will still be Kak Mei for him. The tip of Harven's tongue did not dare to ask, even though his heart was already pounding in the question.

“But, after marriage, before mom recovers you can stay alone right?”

Harven's face began to pias. His hands trembled putting down the spoon.

“What Sister Mei will also throw me away after marriage?”

Harven's lips trembled as he lowered his head after saying his heart filled with fear. She had already lost an older brother, did she also have to lose an older sister now.

Merilin got up from her seat, and hugged Harven's trembling body holding tight.
