Me And My Step Brothers
Imarriages

My name is Dewa Ayu Aldista Putri and I was 30 years old when I had a new family. The times when I should have accompanied my father to my bridegroom.

Should have? For indeed, it was not my father who accompanied me to meet my bridegroom in front of the sacred altar named; marriage. But here - my father became the groom who was waiting for the bride to come to him to tie the sacred promise.

I didn't expect the day I would have a new family to arrive. Having previously forced my father to remarry, my father finally married a woman who came from his past.

For some people the first thing that comes to mind when hearing the word ‘ stepmother and stepbrother’ must be drawn stepmother and stepbrother are fierce and evil just like the fairy tales that are often in watch in a cartoon child's time. But...., why did I even advise my own father to get married again?

The only thing I thought about was; because I wanted someone to take care of my father in his old age. Someone will look after my father when I get married one day or maybe when I decide to work away from my father.

I looked back at my father's happy face when I received a woman who would be his rightful wife when the sacred promise was finished.

Roberta Holland(53) is the name of the woman I will soon call ‘Mama’. A long lost name. It's been 8 years since I lost my mother to cancer. And after this sacred ceremony I will call the woman I have only known for a few weeks the same name as the woman who gave birth to me; mother.

Berta, was my father's ex-lover long before my father decided to marry my mother. Who would have thought after deciding to take a short vacation to his hometown-Balinese, the father back in met with his old love, the, which is also the same in the stay of his partner due to eternal separation called death?

Just like my father - this woman I'm going to call my mother also has a child from a previous marriage, Arnold Holland(34) - is the name of the man I'm going to call my sister.

Men of Dutch-Balinese descent who have a handsome face, firm and also cold, the types of men that all women like.

How could I know? Because I also like the man who will be my stepbrother.

As my body and gaze turned forward and followed the sacred promise of our parents' marriage - the tail of my eyes stared at the 3-year-old man from me.

Has a handsome face, a tall body with a field chest and clean skin.

Her face seemed to have a magnet that made me reluctant to take my eyes off her. No wonder, I guess-not just me who thinks like that, surely almost all women are reluctant to take their face off from the handsome face of an Arnold. Has a sharp nose, a firm jaw and bright brown eyes that can sedate any woman he meets. Her blonde hair seemed to be perfecting her handsome face. I'm sure it was his real hair seeing his hair roots that were coloured to match the tips of his hair.

“ do you like me?” said the man surprised me.

“ why are you asking like that, brother?” my wonder.

“ I know the tail of your eyes keeps looking at me even though the direction of your view is ahead.” he said.

“ is there a ban to look at you?” honest saying.

“ I like your honesty.” said Arnold.

“I'd prefer it if you were honest about how you feel.” Arnold said. His words made me look at him completely as if asking; what was the meaning of his words.

“ do you like me?” continued Arnold.

“ there are indeed women who do not like you?” my wonder.

Arnold just smiled. Even the sound of his breathing sounded quite strong. I'm sure he wanted to laugh but seeing where we are now the man held back his laughter and could only smile a little.

“ is not this funny.” said Arnold.

“ I'm funny?” my wonder.

“ yes, but not you I mean.” Arnold said.

“ so?” my wonder.

“ shouldn't your father be with you to meet your groom? And now your father is the groom who is waiting for my mommy.” Arnold said.

“ from what I heard you always convinced your father to get married. Though he always said waiting for his children to marry and have a family all.” he continued.

“ indeed. Because I hope that when I leave my father, whether because of family or working away from him, there will still be someone to look after him. That's why I always convince my father to get married, I don't expect a sister because all I want is someone who can look after and love my father.”.

“ but what I hear is that you want to break up with your girlfriend.” Arnold said.

“ yes.” sayku sure.

“ why? I heard you and her have been dating for quite a while.” Herenya.

“ yes, I have dated my lover now when I was 20 years old.”.

“ what? Doesn't that mean you've been dating her for 10 years?” arnold said he couldn't believe it.

“ yes.”
