Loving My Brother's Beloved
Chapter 12's

Currently Irine is forced to spend more money to take a taxi, usually after returning home from work she always boarded Transjakarta to save her monthly expenses. But, because he had to overtime and make it home so late that it was not possible for the Bus to come at this hour.

Irine looked up at the car window, for some reason her heart was beating uncontrollably. He was confused why it could be like this, because it is not usually like this.

Don't be like this, please!

Don't be like this, please!

Don't be like this, please!

His arms were pounding his chest while his lips continued to mutter indistinctly. Foretells the do'a that he said as a child when he was feeling sad or afraid.

"I beg you." Irine clasped her trembling fingers.

The Taxi driver who was carrying Irine glanced over from her rearview mirror, looking at her pale face with a worried look.

"Miss, are you sick?" Ask the driver to Irine. 

Irine looked at the driver trying to rearrange his facial expression, then gave a smile despite being forced. He did not want others to look at him with a look of pity, because honestly he hated the look of pity.

"I'm fine, Uncle. It's just that my job is so much today, that my body feels tired," Irine told a lie.

The driver nodded his head and smiled, his eyes still watching Irine looking out the window of the car they were riding in.

"The view of Jakarta at night looks beautiful, the wind is also cool. Would you like me to open the window, miss?" ask the driver kindly.

"Akh, really? If so may Uncle." cried Irine enthusiastically.

Sure enough, when the window opened slowly. The fresh night wind immediately hit his hair.

"I also have a child the same age as Miss." The driver suddenly said.

Irine turned her face towards the taxi driver's back. "Wakh, he must be lucky to have a Dad who works as hard as Uncle." Irine smiled.

"Miss too, at such a young age you have worked hard." Praise your taxi driver uncle with a smile. "Miss parents are proud to have a child who grew up independent and kind like, Miss." she continued.

Proudly? Are his parents really proud of him? Irine smiled wryly, remembering Mom's treatment of her.

"Hahahaha Uncle is overly over-praising me." Irine forced her laughter. "Akh, Uncle just stop here, all buy dinner." point Irine at the restaurant across the street.

The taxi driver glanced at Irine, then pulled over the car.

After the car pulled over, Irine immediately opened the car door and closed it hard. "Uncle thanks for driving me, be careful on the road." Said Irine while giving her the fare money.

The Taxi Uncle looked at the smiling departure of Irine who ran small towards the rice stall across the street.

"He's a friendly boy." he murmured.

...****************...

After arriving at the Cosannya, Irine slowly opened the door of her house to walk toward the Sofa. He just threw himself on the sofa, his whole body was so tired, he needed a lot of rest.

A few minutes ago, he contacted his sister Candra, saying that he was going to Jakarta. I don't know what he wants to go to Jakarta, it seems like Mom also allows it.

"Huh," Irine sighed softly. Both of his eyes were staring around, there was only silence there.

Irine walked toward her room, despite trying. But in fact, the man's shadow still haunts the contents of his head, making him more stressed.

"Oh my God, why does the shadow of the damn man keep coming." - annoyed.

...****************...

After starting his car, he drove his car across the streets of Jakarta which is crowded with various vehicles. Although he did not really identify the streets of Jakarta, but he never forgot the apartment his lover lived in. Silly indeed, but that's how a Candra is.  

He smiled faintly, it had been a few months that he had not seen his lover. If you say Candra and her lover are dating remotely, because both are busy completing their respective lectures eventually they are both forced to go back and forth between Jakarta-Bandung.

A romantic couple, right? although the one who often goes home is his lover.

That girl's. Although the journey between Jakarta and Bandung is quite time-consuming, but he never questioned or complained about it. Ah, Candra so misses her lover's face. His ever-red cheeks were blushing, as He gave a flutter to him, He was truly a full man, a ruse. 

After taking almost 4 hours of travel from Bandung to Jakarta, not as usual plus heavy traffic. Arriving in Jakarta, he did not directly meet his Kaka. This man even met his girlfriend in the girl's apartment, but very dearly the welcome he received did not match his reflection.

"Hey. What's wrong with you?" Candra is confused to see her lover who looks moody since she arrived at the Apartment.

Bella Candra's lover turned her face, smiling wryly towards Candra., "Continuing to think," she replied.

"Come on, aren't we going on vacation together in Jakarta. Don't think too much of a no-no, you'll be stressed out" said Candra embracing her lover.

"Oh, wait," said Candra suddenly, the man immediately reached into the mobile phone vibrating in his pants pocket.

"Kaka," he muttered after looking at the screen on his phone that showed the name of the Kaka. Candra stared at Bela and asked for permission to pick up the call from her sister. Bella nodded her head, after which Candra slightly moved away from Bella.

"Dad Ka."

"Basic brat. Where are you, it should have reached Jakarta, right?" Irene screamed on the phone.

"Dad Iyah. I'm meeting Bela first, Kaka don't have to worry. Tonight I'll stay here, brother, okay?" candra said quickly. He also immediately turned off the phone connection unilaterally, he knew for sure his Kaka would rampage. But he could not bear if he had to ignore Bella for a long time, he wanted to spend more time with his lover after LDR and so long.

"Bella's." Candra exclaimed with her spoiled voice approaching Bella who was eating her favorite Strawberry fruit.

"Don't shut up, baby, I'll be sad." said Candra with her voice made like a child.

"I'm sprained with you, Can." - Bella.

"Well, kesel? why Love?" ask Candra confused.

"Huh." Bella spins the ball Her eyes are lazy, her lover never sensitized to the situation. "Darling, you know not. You've made a mistake, you should have gone to your old Kosan Kaka to my place." Bella said.

"She must have understood, dear." replied Candra while embracing her petite body.

"You don't understand, I'm not good. Later what if I will be in the scribble to be your brother-in-law" said Bella who began to panic.

Candra immediately patted her eel, hearing the words of her lover. He thought he had done something wrong, it turned out to be something like this, Candra thought.

"Honey, Ka Irine called earlier and she said hello to you." Candra.

"really?" Bella asked with a face that immediately turned 180 degrees that had been moody and currently her eyes looked sparkling.

"Hm, you will still be Ka Irine's best and most beautiful sister-in-law." Whisper Candra while rubbing Bella's head gently.
