Love Lanterns
CHAPTER 25


"Nathan seems to love you so much" Kevin said after Ayunda ended the video call with Nathan.


Ayunda's cell phone reads, only one name is stored there. It is certain that the person who gave this cell phone contacted him.


"How long did he say dear" Nathan said from across the street, showing his face.


Ayunda pointed her camera at Kevin's face, not wanting to show Nathan his face.


"Sister-in-law where's my future wife?" nathan asked after what he saw Kevin's face.


Kevin pointed at Ayunda who was behind the camera and did not want to see Nathan.


"Dad.." Boy's voice calling Nathan made Ayunda look at Kevin to tell him who the little boy was calling Nathan to. Kevin nodded, he could not see who the boy was. Kevin's memory goes back to the photo shown by Jony when Nathan was holding a boy and there was a woman behind him, but the woman's face was not clearly covered by Nathan's shoulder.


"Boy... Daddy's here." Nathan yelled, making Ayunda and Kevin look back at each other.


"Boy... Do you want to see Mommy Ayunda? she was so beautiful" Nathan asked Boy and their conversation could be heard clearly by Ayunda and Kevin.


"Yunda.. show your face, Boy wants to get acquainted" exclaimed Nathan asking Ayunda to show his face.


"Who is he?" asked the curious Kevin when he saw Boy sitting on Nathan's lap.


"He's my brother's son, they..."


"I didn't know you had a sister who already had a child" Kevin told Nathan.


Nathan ignored Kevin's words, there was no point in arguing with Kevin. Nathan's goal is for one to want to see and talk to Ayunda.


"Yunda.. honey... Do you remember Luna? He's the one who likes to defend you if I bother you" Nathan told Ayunda to talk to him.


"Boy son of Luna" he explained.


"Luna" Kevin repeated inwardly, the name of a girl he knew as a child and had never met again since graduating junior high school.


"Boy.. Where is your mother?" Nathan asked Boy where his mother was.


"I'm here" replied Luna who was walking closer to Nathan and Boy while carrying Boy's favorite snack.


Nathan asks Luna to say hello to Ayunda to show her face, she is eager to see Ayunda and hopes that Luna can persuade her. Kevin accidentally saw Luna when Nathan aimed his camera at "That's it" Kevin said in his heart.


"Hey... Ayunda.. do you still remember me?" Luna greets Ayunda following Nathan's wishes.


Because Luna who greeted Ayunda finally showed his face, he still luna who often played with him when he was invited Papa Richad to the second house of Nathan's papi.


"Of course, I still remember you Luna" Ayunda replied to Luna's greeting.


Hearing the voice of Ayunda Nathan immediately took over his phone and pointed the camera to his face "Baby I miss you" he said while looking at the face of the person he missed.


Ayunda could clearly see Nathan's face, immediately engraved a smile on his face. Nathan saw the smile that Ayunda gave him, he immediately immortalized the beautiful face that this one year filled his heart.


Nathan is more talkative, while Ayunda only responds occasionally while staring fixedly at Nathan's face that is clearly visible. Kevin listened and watched Ayunda, he could see there was love in his sister's eyes for Nathan that he did not want to show.


"Bang" Ayunda called Nathan as the man continued to tease him.


"Dear your face flushed?" nathan replies again teasing Ayunda, who is teased now back not want to be seen and turn his cell phone camera on Kevin.


"Darling, I still want to talk and see you" cried Nathan.


There is no word from Ayunda, only the sound of the door opening "You are here" Jony said after seeing the two brothers sitting together.


"Come out. Somebody wants to see you" Jony told the two. Nathan is forced to allow Ayunda to end their conversation after hearing Jony speak.


"You will feel it when you are together, do you love him" replied Kevin, who kept Ayunda quiet.


"There are two different loves you can feel between Erick and Nathan"


"You love Erick because he's always been there for you after papa's departure. Nothing more than that, just like you fell in love with me" Kevin explained.


"Different from what you feel with Nathan even though you try to cover it up" Kevin rubbed Ayunda's back so that his sister understood his words.


"You did not choose the wrong decision to marry Nathan" then Kevin invited Ayunda out after feeling quite understanding to Ayunda.


Ayunda followed Kevin's steps while continuing to think about his brother's words, he also stopped his steps as kevin remained silent.


"Kevin" Mother Tere took off when she saw the son she thought was no longer standing before her.


"I'm sorry mom" he said, sobbing.


Ayunda patted Kevin on the shoulder to wake up her brother to accept Mother Tere's apology as they had discussed earlier.


Kevin walked up to his mother and hugged the woman he wanted to hate, but his heart could not do that.


"I'm sorry Kevin's mother" Mother Tere's crying voice grew louder, making Ayunda and Feby who were there also crying out. Long enough the mother and child miss each other, both can not talk just a hug that says they love each other.


Kevin turned to face Feby as the beautiful woman approached him who was still hugging Mother Tere.


"Sister.." greet Kevin and hug his new-found older sister after the shooting that happened to him.


"Ayunda" Kevin called Ayunda to get closer to her.


"Sister-in-law" Ayunda said to Feby and they embraced.


"You're just as valuable to me" Kevin told his brother and sister.


"We're brothers, three brothers" he exclaimed.


Feby and Ayunda embrace Kevin, although Ayunda and Feby are not connected to one blood but they are both connected to one blood with Kevin.


"We are brothers" said the three besamaan.


Mr. Sami had planned to report Mr. Yuda to the authorities to make an arrest on the man who had troubled his life so far even had the heart to plan the murder of Kevin. During this time Mr. Sami continues to gather evidence to incriminate Mr. Yuda who is assisted by Nathan's security team.


Mr. Sami explains to Mother Tere and Feby what he will do to Mr. Yuda, therefore he takes Mother Tere and Feby to temporarily stay with him.


Tonight Ayunda and Feby share a room, they are talking heart to heart about Erick, Feby loves Erick and believes Erick does not love him and only loves Ayunda.


"Sister-in-law, I do love Brother Erick just as much as I love Brother Kevin" explained Ayunda as what Kevin said to him.


"Erick doesn't love me" Feby uttered with a rough breath.


"Sister Erick loves sister-in-law, only she hasn't noticed"


"Trust me, I will make him realize that" Ayunda assured Feby.


"Didn't you really love her?" feby's question was only answered with a smile by Ayunda.


"What are you talking about?" the voice of the man who asked made them surprised.
