Marry Me, Brother!
Chapter 12

Arin was sitting on her own porch because Lia had come inside to take care of her husband who had come home from the office. He pondered at the thought of someone he had been trying to forget but in fact when he himself recalled Nathan's attitude last night. Today they have not met at all and have not sent a message.

Already from that moment Arin never again sent a disturbing message to Nathan. There is someone who tells him that do not bother someone we like too often if you do not want to make it ilfil. At first, of course, Arin was eager to send a message as usual but now he can restrain himself. And as a result they have never sent a message again unless there is something important. It was never because if there was anything Arin more often talk through Febby.

"What meda? Why alone here, where's mama?" Rezza who just won his online game match.

"Not doing anything, aunty went inside earlier. He wants to take care of your papah. Where are you from? Is it playing games again?"

"Take care of what? Papah has grown up why is also still troublesome mama, to me mamah always told me to be independent." Rezza snorted annoyed at the behavior of papah and mamah, according to him unfair because the papah can be spoiled on his mother. While Rezza can not, with the reason is already big and must be independent.

Arin is not pity but instead laughs to see Rezza annoyed. Obviously Rezza can no longer be spoiled on his mother. Maybe if Rezza is a woman then it can still be spoiled until anytime on his mother. Arin remembers her mother who was gone. Just try if his mother is still alive surely Arin can spoiled his mother, like putting his head on the lap of the mother and his head rubbed full of love. It was just that simple thing that Arin missed.

Although there is Febby who is very affectionate and kind to him still feels different. Arin still feels awkward to indulge in the woman who raised him after Arin's parents are gone. Want as good as anyone else still can not replace the position of biological parents.

Dinner has arrived.

Arin helps Lia to prepare dinner. After that everyone gathered there were Lia, Sakka, Bayu's grandfather, Rezza and Arin himself. It feels very different when eating together at Febby's house. Here Arin felt warmer and crowded because the Rezza family joked a lot even at the dinner table. Rezza who always quarreled with his father and Lia and Bayu's grandfather who became mediator.

"You are old and old but you behave like a child" said Bayu's grandfather.

"Father it's Cake, he starts first." Rezza blamed his papa. Actually, the problem is trivial only about the attention of Lia to two important men in her life, according to Rezza is not fair. He thinks the mama is more indulgent of his papa.

"Based on a bad boy, I'm your papah. How dare you point your hand like that" Sakka won't budge, here she looks more like a child.

"Enough!! You are father and son alike. Look, Arin can't eat comfortably because of your behavior. If you still want to make a fuss, you better get off the dinner table, don't eat with us." Grandpa Bayu was quite firm. "I'm sorry son, you just eat don't care about them" Bayu's grandfather told Arin in a soft voice.

Arin smiled at Grandpa Bayu. "It's okay Grandpa, Arin doesn't feel bothered." Arin actually likes the crowded conditions like that because at home Febby he usually eats in silence, rarely joking. It was Febby who usually fished first, but Mike and Nathan were too stiff. Be always quiet when at the dinner table, there is only the sound of the clink of spoons and forks.

Sakka and Rezza lowered their heads unwilling to go against Bayu's grandfather's words but their eyes still glanced at each other sharply. Grandpa Bayu and Lia were shaking their heads at them. It was like there were two boys in the house.

"My son-in-law, you're better off serving me from now on. Let the two men take their own food" Bayu's grandfather told Lia.

"Yes, father" replied Lia.

Sakka immediately looked disappointedly at his wife while Rezza smiled triumphantly. Now just now, no one gets more attention than his mama.

'This is all because you're a bad boy, just be careful papah will not give new snacks tau tau tasa,' inner Sakka.

'I'm not afraid, I can also find my own money no need to ask papah," Inner Rezza.

After eating and talking for a while in the living room. Arin was saying goodbye because it was too late.

"Aunty, uncle, grandpa. Looks like I have to go home now before it's too late again" Arin said.

"Ehhh why don't you just stay the night, baby. Later aunty told aunty Febby that you sleep here," Lia suggested.

"Right Arin, it's late and it's dangerous if you drive yourself." Grandpa Bayu agrees, if Sakka's up to him.

Meanwhile, Rezza had agreed and hoped that Arin would stay. That way he will spend more time with Arin. He smiles to himself.

"It's okay aunty, the distance from here to Febby's aunty house is also not too far away and passes through crowded streets. So I better just go home." Yes Arin rejected Lia's proposal. It's nothing, he also actually did not want to go home and meet Nathan but when told to stay overnight it felt like still choosing to go home.

"True mama and grandpa, it's not safe when a girl drives alone at night. Although the streets are crowded, the name of the crime does not only occur on a quiet road" said Rezza gave advice that would certainly benefit him.

"But .. I ..." Arin worried about going home or not. Looking towards those who wish he didn't come home but it feels strange, although here it is so welcome but Arin misses the room that since ten years ago he occupied.

"Have stayed over, aunty will tell aunt to clean the guest room. Our body size is not much different, you can wear aunty."

"He'll come home with me." A heavy voice suddenly appeared and immediately snatched their chat and made Rezza annoyed because his plan failed.

"Assalamu'alaikum aunty, uncle, grandfather ..."
