Marrying the Killer of my Girlfriend
NEW STORY

Gery must be kidding.

How could he be serious?

He and I have known about 17 years, at that time we were still in the 3rd grade of SD. Precisely, ever since I moved home from West Jakarta to East Jakarta, just after Ale left us, Ale,

I never thought Gery was just my usual playmate. Of course because all my life, I spent the most time with him. We have always been together since SD, SMP, High School and college. Although, while in college we majored in different subjects, I took medicine while he was in psychology.

So, hearing Gery's confession of love is very, very awkward for me.

Because to me, she was a witness to living and growing with me.

If I think of Ale as my brother who should be separated, I think of Gery as my twin brother.

He knows all my strengths and weaknesses. He was always there in my happy and sad moments.

Even he was the one who introduced me to Dio and always supported our relationship until death separated Dio from me!

“Don't believe ya?” Gery returns to his usual nature.

“Parting most prank,” I said casually, not taking it seriously.

He laughed out loud before giving me the apple he had peeled.

“In fact, it's true Selena. I'm really sorry I introduced you to Dio,” he said back mellow.

I don't understand if I'm being played by Gery or not.

“Duh I mending fainted again just aja,” reply me to him while taking one fresh apple that he has pressed me.

“I regret it at first. Because that's how I understand that I love you so much. I'm upset when you spend more time with Dio. I get upset when you tell me every day how amazing a Dio is and how crazy you are about him,” he said, not caring about my jokes.

Gery!

So this is true?

I really am in the moment. Not knowing how to respond to someone you consider as a brother all this time even suddenly mellow expressed love.

Just when all the new chaos occurred and I just met my ex-lover in the afterlife even for a moment.

Life can be so strange sometimes.

“But... I finally get it, Selena.” he said continuing.

While I was still silent, confused as to what to respond to.

“I tried to throw off the taste to you by going through a heartless relationship with Becca. But it really didn't work out, and Becca knew very well that I was in love with you so our relationship failed miserably,”.

Whahuh?

so then.. Does Becca even know that Gery has feelings for me?And they broke up because of me?

This way everything is clear. All has been answered.

Why Becca turned out to hate me so much. He must have felt that I had taken all the important things in his life.

Dio.. Gery. and Ale..

Becca. I was concerned about her but also couldn't justify her obvious attitude to kill me.

“I think.. Becca will tell you why we broke up back then.I'm worried because I don't want to destroy your relationship with Dio that's getting serious. But apparently he was silent. And to fool you, all these years.I always tell you that I still admire Becca a lot and our relationship ran aground due to her parents' disapproval.” Gery explained.

You stupid Gery.

And I was stupid too, could have been fooled by him for years and convinced that Gery still harbors his feelings for Becca.

In fact, he had always kept his feelings carefully with me.

“What you did was stupid, Gery,” I said to rebuke him.

“Ya.. I know. I'm just confused. I don't know what to behave like, especially after you finally got engaged to Dio. while I was stuck in my own feelings for a dozen years.. hurt myself by pretending to be happy when you see you are happy.” she explained to me solemnly.

I still folded my chest, waiting for him to finish speaking.

“Well.. but I also slapped so great when I saw you lose Dio. I think that's where the turning point is,” he said.

“When you see you so hard, when everyone blames you..I realize your love for her can't be measured by anything, Selena.  And it turns out that my love for you cannot compare to how you love her.”.

I try to pervade his words.

“Then yesterday..when you were kidnapped, I was completely helpless. I can only pray in my heart you will be safe and we can meet again. However. the two brothers were willing to sacrifice their lives to save you. I was like dejavu.”.

“Dejavu?” many confused.

“Dejavu. And what Josh and Ale showed is the same thing, Selena. They dare to oppose the world. Because loving means also sacrificing, however, how to see the person you love happy.” he explained.

Gery is now back stroking my head.

“It turns out. I haven't gotten to that level yet. I was made aware that I may indeed love you wholeheartedly.but it may not be love as a loving person should.”.

Oh Gery's.

“I'm done expecting you Selena. From now on, our friendship will be pure because I love you as my best friend, there is no more hope. So don't change yeah!”

I now try to grab her back from me and hug her.

“Thank you for rating me so highly Gery. I have always loved me too, as I consider you my brother all along,” I honestly say.

Gery hugged me back.

“I'm really happy you're reunited with someone who loves you so much, Selena. I really don't care who you choose right now. And I'm sure Dio will also have the same attitude from up there,” he said.

My stomach feels like it's wrapped around Gery saying whoever I choose between Ale and Josh Rainer must be good for me.

“I've chosen Ger.. And I talked to Dio, too, and he said, do the things that make me happy. As long as I'm happy, he'll be happy too. And this person is what makes me the happiest right now,”.

Gery looked confused when he heard me talking to Dio. I explained everything. All the things that happened to Gery without anything I covered up. My magical encounter with Dio, Aldebaran who asked me to open my heart, until Josh Rainer who has penetrated my heart.

And after everything that's happened, I'm sure Josh Rainer is the one who makes me the happiest.

“You sure?” Gery asked me now.

I nodded for sure.

“I think you'll choose Ale. Because, since childhood you've always told me how much you wanted him back. And now she's back again and you chose her brother instead?” tanyanya's confused.

 “Gery... You can always control how the contents of your mind work, but not your heart,” reply me.

He is still not sure of my explanation.

“I don't explain it. But me and Josh Rainer are like having an inner bond and connected telepathy. Our bodies are like automatic like wanting to protect each other, and my heart really cannot be controlled when it is close to him,” I said.

I continued, “And Ale. she.. all this time I was expecting her back because she made my family feel whole. You understand what I mean?”

Gery is now a mangosteen.

“Hadirnya Ale perfect the family function for me, and Josh Rainer.he completes my life,” obviously touched me.

“Alright then. I hope Josh Rainer will solve his problems with Helena soon, and then make you happy every day,” Gery now rises from where he stands. “I have to call your mother and Josh, it looks like Anne went to the toilet and forgot to tell them that you were conscious,” she said.

“Thank you for everything, Gery.”

“And thank you for not changing, Selena,” said Gery smiling as he got out of his chair. Now she had held the doorknob before I remembered something very important to say.

“Gery, it's not just me who's insensitive. But you too! Don't talk too jutek to Anne huh?” I said begging him.

Gery nodded before opening the door.

“I realize it Selena, but I want to finish everything first with you because I don't want her to get hurt. And now, I think I'm ready to start fighting for it.”

Gery's words make me very happy. It all ended happily.

I can see Ale coming back to my family

I walk alongside Josh Rainer who has broken through my heart.

Then my two best friends will create a new story.

Without me knowing, that all this happiness of mine will soon be replaced with prolonged delirium and sedu.
