Love Above the Heart
- Brother and Sister Conversations -

Micah came home with a red face holding back anger.

Micah growled inwardly remembering Gia's actions had been cut off earlier. Especially if you remember Gia who will marry Erick.

Micah had heard the news from Mama Anna. Of course after Gia and Erick came home from her parents' house yesterday, Anna's mother immediately told Micah the disappointing thing.

Not long from Anna's mother's phone to Micah about it. Ivander, Micah's brother immediately strengthened his sister's heart to be immediately honored because Papa Johan had just canceled the engagement of Micah and Erick which had not even been realized.

Papa Johan apologized because the one who will live is still Erick, so he could not force the will of his adult son and can make his own choices.

Prerack..

Micah opened the door of Ivan's study. He saw Ivan who at once also lifted his face while inserting a picture figura in his work drawer.

Micah looked at his brother. Wanted to speak, but the sentence that had been at the tip of the tongue was immediately cut by Ivan's sentence.

"Why deck?" Ivan asked who saw the annoyance on his sister's face.

"Sister, can't you ask Erick's parents to think again about our engagement!" The ink is a little flattened.

Micah used to ask her brother anything. He's been dependent on Ivan since his parents were gone.

And fortunately all Micah's requests were always obeyed by Ivan. Including finding out Erick and Gia's background when she asked him first.

"Give up the deck, Oom Johan's decision is final. Besides, you can't force Erick's feelings either!"

"Then should I how brother?" Start solotizing.

"Yes, you're opening the deck!"

"Hahaha, what does big brother mean? You want me to be like the one who wants to take the one I love with someone else?" Micah Protest.

"Dad!" Ivan warned Micah not to continue his sentence.

But Micah, who was already upset from seeing Gia today, was blinded, as if venting his anger on his older brother.

"Already, brother! I can't be like a sister. I don't want to be like my sister. Who let my loved ones go with everyone else! I don't want every night even every day to just look at the pictures! Especially secretly like a thief!" Micah answered insinuating Ivan's behavior.

"Micha!" Ivan slightly shouted even he was already standing from his position.

"I don't think I know who's in the drawer! That woman, right? Who can't forget? Do you want me to be like you too?"

Ivan walked over to his brother. He took Micah's hands and held them.

"Sir, you just don't want to be disappointed anymore. If you force Erick, you'll both be tormented!" Ivan slowly reassured Micah.

"And regarding the relationship of brother, let it be the business of brother. Don't you camp!" Ivan's words were firm.

"Sister, I've been quite disappointed in the past, brother. I don't want to be disappointed anymore now, maybe I gave up because I knew my rival was my best friend. But now? Do I have to do the same? Gia is nobody!" Micah began to let out his tears.

"Sister, brother has power! Brother can arrange everything according to brother's orders! Fulfill your sister's wishes, brother! It's not hard for my sister!" Sniffled.

Hearing Micah's words, Ivan recalled the man who became his sister's idol after entering university. Micah was too much to hope for and ended up disappointed.

Micah could not do much because his rival was his own best friend. Even if Ivan helped with the power he had, it could not change anything.

"Then from that deck, since the beginning brother has said, brother does not want you to be disappointed again. Big brother could have forced things with the power that big brother has!"

"But not with feeling! That's the absolute right of each individual!" And Ivan again.

Micah looked at her brother's face. Let alone to grant the love Micah wanted, the love that Ivan had had to be won even though he had power.

Micah knew what Ivan was saying was true. Feelings are the rights of each person, cannot be imposed on whom and cannot be regulated for whom.

But Micah also felt so with his feelings now, he could not manage because his feelings just stuck to Erick. Erick saved his life.

That's why he can't just forget Erick. Even Erick's very sudden presence in his life, able to make him forget someone he loved all this time in silence.

"Did I have to give up again this time? He murmured in his heart.

Ivan embraced his heartbroken sister for the second time. Ivan knew that Micah did not fall for others easily unless he gave them something special.

Ivan knew what special things Erick had given Micah. Although accidentally, but in reality Erick helped Micah's life. Ivan did not forbid his brother to approach Erick.

But after knowing Erick did not return Micah's feelings, it felt like he also had a pain to see his sister's disappointment.

"Please deck, maybe this time you have to let go again! They're getting married!"

Micah was unmoved, he was silent in his own mind. He appreciates Ivan's decision to not force Erick's feelings.

But, on the other hand Micah has not been sincere to let go of it. Micah doesn't want to be like Ivan who let go of his lover and regrets it now!

And now Ivan was dissolved in his heart, and then seemed unwilling to open his heart to another woman.

"Sister, has your brother truly let go of that woman?" Asked Micah who had started to ease up emotions.

"Humm like big brother said, it's sister's business!"

"Didn't your own brother want to share his story?" Started curious.

"Bed it? We're both heartbroken and don't get our love, are we?" Micah answered with a smile, remembering the same fate as his brother.

"Different deck, if you are the same Erick does not have anything to do. But if you're with her, we're dating. More precisely, brother was only made into a backup deck man. Hahaha" Ivan replied as he pretended to laugh considering his old folly.

"Reserve men? Meanin? That woman also had another boyfriend before sister?

Ivan nodded.

"And you know that?"

Ivan nodded again.

"And he left brother, after he was sure of his other girlfriend? That so?" And it's getting curious.

"Hahaha, don't know much! A lot of knowing later can make you stupid!" Ivan answered with a potluck while ruffling Micah's hair.

Ivan left Micah who was still trying to digest his brother's words. But he suddenly remembered Gia's words earlier that also said stupid.

As Micah was about to get angry at Ivan, he turned his head and found Ivan no longer in the same room.

"Sister!!!!!!!" His screams were about to protest Ivan.

*****

Gia and Lyra are currently having breakfast in the front room which doubles up as their daily dining venue.

Gia ordered two packs of the usual nasi ubuk. Which has become a fovoritnya and now also a favorite Lyra.

They ate it with each other lightly

"Oh yeah Gi, later if you get married, Arga you invite, right?" Lyra's question makes Gia's appetite suddenly disappear.

"Why? How are you doing that?" Even calling Arga's name Gia seemed reluctant.

"That's what? The arga?"

Gia nodded slowly.

"Yes yesterday I went to the market, when you came home I met Arga with her mother!"

"Ohh.. So he knows from you about my marriage?" Guessing the situation that had caused Gia to panic.

"Yes, I think it's a good thing for Arga to hear too. Because I know you guys are deket as friends. But--"

lyra's words hanging make Gia stop her activity stirring rice and it is no taste for food.

"I'm just friends with him, Ra!" Gia said firmly.

"Well, I thought that was it too, right? I said that, right? Why do you seem angry? Sorry" Lyra replied.

"It's not that, Ra. I think you're the same Erick. Both thought I was giving him hope. I'm obviously friends with him"

"Gi, sorry. But after meeting Arga yesterday I was able to conclude that Arga did wish for more of you. You know what I mean?'

Gia clucking. Silence does not make any comment.

"Gi, you better be firm with Arga like you are firm with Mas Nico!"

"Udah! He called me yesterday!" Answer Gia plain.

"Then?"

"Yes he did say he wished I was more the same. But his feelings are really too late. Ra, what should I do? Is my decision right? Did I give him hope all this time?"

"You're right, assertively better. He also accepted reality. You guys have no relationship."

Gia nodded in understanding.

"Maybe I'll invite him when I get married!" Answer Gia again.

"It's better, Ra. At least let it be a blow so that he knows the reality is he can't hope for you anymore." Lyra patted Gia's shoulder softly.
