Loving Brother Lift
Chapter 14

Nirmala pinched her own arm.

"Ouch! It hurts!"

"What are you doing, La?" Dimas was surprised by Nirmala's behavior.

"Confirm, Brother. Am I dreaming again? Or am I wrong?"

"No, you are no longer a dream, nor are you misheard. I really love you more than a sister loves her sister, La!" Dimas repeated his words.

"Me too, Brother. I love you, I love Dimas!" Nirmala finally dared to reveal what she had been craving all along.

Dimas smiled, he hugged Nirmala once more. Before finally releasing again.

"So, are we dating?" Nirmala asked innocently.

Dimas.

"We stay like this, La! You are still young, there are still many things that will change, as time goes on. I don't want to make you feel restricted. I promise, I'll keep loving you like this. Wherever I am." Dimas confirmed the status of the two of them.

"But, Brother? If we're a soul mate, how?"

"If it's a soul mate, it means no one can resist, right?"

"okay, Sis. I'll stay like this too, I'll still love Dimas, wherever we are. Even though I am far apart, I will not make my love go away. I will also continue to pray, may we both mate. I promise, Brother!" Nirmala was in line with what she said. Dimas nodded.

"Have you eaten yet? We eat, yuk? I bought some fried rice before I got home." Dimas invites Nirmala into the house. Then they both enjoyed the fried rice wrapped in the oil paper.

Dinner this time was completely different for Nirmala. Feeling flowery. His love turns out to be together, although their status is uncertain. At least Nirmala knew that Dimas also had the same feelings as her.

***

The following days, Nirmala became more frequent chat with Dimas. He did not want to waste their remaining time together for a few more days.

[What do you want to eat, La? We're eating out, yuk?]

Nirmala reads a message from Dimas. Even though they are under the same roof. Through messages, they are free to express their feelings, unbeknownst to Nirmala's parents.

[Sir Dimas would like me to eat where?]

Nirmala smiled as she replied to a message from Dimas.

[To my favorite place, yuk? The food is good, the place is good too. But you don't, do you?]

[I'm nothing to do, brother!]

[Jaudah, get ready! We're leaving in a minute, hunt the mallem. You have to learn too, right?]

[Okay, I'm getting ready first. Brother's permission is the same Mother's father, yes!]

[Ready!]

Dimas and Nirmala went to the dining room planned by Dimas. They both eat with a romantic atmosphere, like a lover.

"We're taking a picture, brother! Make memories!" Nirmala pulled out her phone. Then install the front camera, invite Dimas to take pictures together.

"No ah, brother. Enough here! It doesn't matter where it is, the important thing is that I can take a photo of Dimas, that's it!" Nirmala smiles.

"Ah, you. Small-little pinter already a tombal, yes!" Dimas pinched both cheeks Nirmala gaunty.

"Ye, I'm not a child anymore, brother! I was in 3rd grade! If that little boy is sieved!" Nirmala does not accept being considered a child by Dimas.

"Hahaha, yes, yes! I like kids too, yeah! It's weird, it's considered pedophiles, it's even bothering!" Dimas asked Nirmala to joke.

"Well, that's why. Don't take me little boy, brother! It'll be pedophiles, hahaha." Nirmala laughed.

They enjoyed the night with laughter. Make the best memories for both.

***

The following nights, Nirmala and Dimas spend time together on a balcony next to Nirmala's room. Of course without the knowledge of Nirmala's father and mother. They played down their voices, so as not to be heard from below. Nirmala also played some pretty loud music, to disguise the sound of the two of them chatting.

"We've only known how many months, brother. But how rich it feels to have known for so long. Until I actually fell in love with Big Brother!" Nirmala leaned her head on the shoulder of Dimas who was sitting next to her.

"Because love doesn't look at time, La! Love can come at any time, at will. Without cue, without excuse." He put his hand on Nirmala's shoulder.

"Yes, Brother. And soon we'll have to separate. Can we stay like this, someday if Brother comes here again?"

"So, you don't have to think about the future, La! Better to enjoy, the time is now." Dimas calmed Nirmala, who only replied with a nod of agreeing signs.

***

Arriving when Dimas had to leave, Nirmala felt a deep sadness. He drove Dimas to the front of the house, while his father and mother delivered Dimas, first to Dimas's biological parents' house first, then to the office where Dimas would work later. Nirmala refused to participate.

"Take care of yourself, La! I play here again sometime. You study diligently, so you can do the exam problem smoothly, the results are also satisfactory." Order it before getting in the car.

"Will you come too, La? Don't study for a day, don't you." Sukma bows his head from the front window of the car.

"No, Mom. I'm at home." Nirmala just wanted to cry as much after this.

"Later to sleep at Rosa's house! If not, Rosa told me to sleep here." Sukma told his eldest daughter.

"Yes, Mom. Just calm! Don't worry about me!" Nirmala smiled, despite being forced.

"Yeah, Dim!" Nirmala's father coded for Dimas to come in.

"Come, Brother Dimas!" Claudia who was sitting in the back seat also joined Dimas. He can't wait to take a walk out of town. A place he had never been to all this time.

"Take care of yourself, La!" Dimas shuffled Nirmala's hair.

"Yes, Brother. Don't forget the news, yes!"

"Definitely! I'll go first!" Dimas immediately got into the car, he did not want to make his adoptive father wait too long. After Dimas got in, the car started driving slowly, leaving Nirmala alone in the house.

Nirmala waved, until the car was not seen again. Her chest feels full. The tears that he had sustained earlier, now burst unstoppable.

Nirmala immediately went into the house and headed to her room. He cried, expressing all his feelings in the room. She hoped that after crying, her feelings could become even more relieved.
